WE DO knot ALWAYS LOVE YOU Part 8 Full translation.

report 4 part 3/3



“Renji, let’s get everyone something to eat or drink soon.”

“Right! Please, we beg your assistance!”

Hearing Renji’s request, the nakai turned her body towards everyone.

“Then, we will begin….How about beverages?” She asked whilst bowing deeply in a seated position.

“It’s okay if we request whatever we want, captain Kuchiki’s treat right!? Then let’s have your most expensive sake please~!”

Rangiku said in a cheery voice, Ikkaku also added “Bring bottles!”

”Both of you are shameless…..ah, sake cups for each person please.”

Hisagi’s face looked as if he wanted to say “don’t you drink yourself after all, Yumichika!”

“The captain doesn’t need a sake cup~. It’s believed your growth will stop when you drink sake right? Captain.”

Looking at Rangiku’s broad grin, Hitsuguya felt a twitch in his temple.

“….It is a special celebratory occasion. I will also drink.”

“Is that okay?~ You won’t grow taller, isn’t that right?~ No matter how much time passes, you won’t mature like that ‘Daiguren Hyourinmaru handsome edition’ time?~”

“Be quite Matsumoto!! Besides that’s not the name of that form anyway!!”

Rangiku is speaking about the appearance of Hitsugaya’s Bankai at the time it was shown in the 'Protection of the Soul King Great War’. When the ice petals that bloom in mid air disappear, Daiguren Hyourinmaru exhibits its true worth, corresponding with that power, Hitsugaya temporarily grows into the body of a young man.

“That’s right Rangiku san. That’s 'Daiguren Hyourinmaru version two~noble son of ice~’ is it not?”

“I conclude that it’s 'Dai-Daiguren Hyourinmaru.” (*Dai=big)

“Ayasegawa, Madarame! Why are you both naming it as you please!? ……And Hisagi! What were you writing down just now!?”

“Well umm….If I publicly advertise the name in 'Seireitei communication’ it will raise up excitement, won’t it….”

“Absolutely not!!”

Elsewhere from the clamor of voices arguing back and forth, Hinamori, with a smiling face told the nakai “some fruit sake for me please.”

“Hey captain~ please let me take pictures when you grow into an adult. At that time, I didn’t have my denreishinki* because I was carried in the medical treatment pod, I couldn’t take a photograph~!” (*Soul reaper mobile device)

“I refuse!!”

“The same as everyone else for me is fine” said Izuru.

“By the way, Rangiku san what were you doing at that time? didn’t see you on the battlefield”

“Me, well I was told by the captain, everyone was doing as they pleased, causing a scene and the destroyed Soul King Palace wreckage was falling down on Seireitei, I was breaking it up with Haineko until it became an okay size! Simple~! The fact is, I was doing my best!”

“Really? it was like that….! Since I was swiftly attacked and on the verge of death the whole time, I can’t remember anything at all…..pff that is pitiful!!”

Next to Kiyone who raked a hand through her hair, Hanataro whispered his request for some green tea to the nakai.

“[‘Great war - persons of distinguished service behind the scenes special feature’]…..Not bad at all!”

Hisagi muttered, writing down his idea for a special feature in his notebook.

“……It’s been a long time since things have been lively like this”

Renji laughed a little, Rukia also nodded in agreement “That’s right”.

Prior to the Great War, it was part of everyday life that troops from each squad would gather and drink sake together after work. But now, every squad is busy with reconstruction operations, even if you just drink with people of the same squad, troops of several squads gathering as drinking parties was extremely rare.

The couple were deeply grateful that these troops were able to accept their invitation under such circumstances.

——1 hour and 3_ minutes since the start of the banquet.

The drunkards, Rangiku, Yumichika and Kiyone, were persistent, only when they finished listening about the couples meeting up to the marriage proposal, information that they had inquisitively pried from them, did they finally set the pair free with a look of satisfaction.

“And? When is the ceremony?”

Ikkaku said whilst gulping down the expensive sake like water.

“I discussed it with Rukia, but we’ve planned to not conduct a ceremony, we will only register the marriage.”

“It’s such a time like this, so just being able to celebrate with everyone in this way….”

“You can’t do that!!”

Rangiku shot up and slapped the low table with a *bang*. With eyes bulged open, she thrust her index finger towards the pair.

“You must absolutely conduct a ceremony!!”

Rangiku spoke with hopeful eyes to Rukia who was at a loss for words.

“For sure, I want you to plan it because it’s such a time like this….! Everyday I’m receiving reports like 'that squad house has been repaired, that facility has been reopened’, you know? I think this is bright news. But then again, everything is usually just "this is restored back to its former self”….!“

Hearing of the reconstruction advancement was a pleasant thing. That sentiment was no lie.

Although it was no lie——

"When I received an email from Renji this morning, 'is this a marriage announcement?’ That’s what I thought, for the first time in a long while it truly felt like my heart was boiling over in excitement! I was so cheerful!……since you two made me feel so great, how you decided not to hold a ceremony……such a thing like that….I absolutely will not tolerate it!”

After saying that, Rangiku gave a tender smile. It was not merely a consequence of drunkenness, that the area around her eyes were slightly tinged with red. Hinamori cried loudly as if the sake she had consumed had slackened her tear glands, “I also want you two to hold a wedding ceremonyyyyy….!”

“Oh~ there there……Hey Abarai Kuchiki-i! Hinamori is crying like this! Take some responsibility, hold a ceremony!!”

Kiyone barked embracing Hinamori’s head closely.

“I also agree! Besides, Renji……if you don’t hold a ceremony, what if captain Kuchiki doesn’t remain silent~?”

Ikkaku emptied his sake cup with a gulp.

“At any rate, it gives captain Kuchiki a reason to want to celebrate. If this one celebratory occasion is wasted, he’d be offended.”

Saying that, Yumichika with a confident expression looked at Renji. Blood drained from Renji’s face.

“[The true revival begins from here—–Abarai, Kuchiki, two vice captains, marriage ceremony special feature]……50 pages, fully loaded opening spread wedding photos……not bad!!”

“It’s not good to connect anything to work right now, Hisagi san”

Without paying attention to Izuru’s candid advice, Hisagi reviewed the draft of the magazine’s content from next month onwards.

“There are rarely marriages like this between fellow lieutenants. No one complains when you celebrate on a grand scale.”

Hitsugaya said, calmly tilting back his sake cup.

“……thank you very much. Truly……how we are so blessed……!”

Rukia placed her hands on her knees grasping tightly, she looked at Renji.

“Let’s hold a ceremony, Renji! let’s allow everyone to celebrate this to the marrow of our bones!”

Though it could’ve been written off as a desperate proposal, Rukia’s eyes however were sparkling with happiness. Renji hit the palm of his hand with his fist “alright! Let’s do it!” he reciprocated with a smile.

“Everyone, we will have your attendance! Will you please accept this responsibility and come?”

Everyone gladly nodded to Renji’s invitation.

“If it’s been decided as such then I need to make preparations for a kimono in a hurry~! And putting in a booking for measurements!”

Rangiku excitedly took out her denreishinki and began to send an electronic message to a familiar draper.

“Matsumoto……just the other day you said you have too many kimonos that you can’t wear them all, wasn’t a cabinet brought over to you from my office……?”

Hitsugaya was uninterested in garments, he only had a few clothes himself. For that reason, originally there were two cabinets placed in the Captain’s office, now one remains without much use. It was absolutely no problem to have things that do not get used, but considering there was already twenty cabinets crammed into the lieutenant’s room; Rangiku’s passion to purchase even more new things whilst also possessing that many kimonos, was no small wonder to Hitsugaya.

“I will also go for new kimono tailoring……!”

“Ah! Well then Hinamori, shall we go together?”

“Uhh, is that okay!? I definitely want to go with you!”

Kiyone raised her hand “me too, me too!” At that exchange, Rukia’s eyes also shined.

“Lieutenant Matsumoto, me too……!”

“Kuchiki you can’t! Isn’t it captain Kuchiki who should be deciding the arrangements for your kimono~? He will undoubtedly give orders for the highest quality things, so behave yourself!”

Rangiku said, Rukia feeling slightly abashed nodded her head in agreement.

“Err……I, have no experience in something like this…… what’s appropriate for a man to wear……?”

Hanataro enquired after timidly raising his hand.

“Well, I think it’s okay for the guys to wear their shihakusho. After all this is acceptable uniform. Also I have no money to buy”

So when he saw Hisagi laughing that it was okay and he need not worry, Hanataro exhaled a large breath of air and said “that’s good……”

“It seems there is no money because Hisagi San does nothing but waste it…… Yamada kun, if you go to a draper store and tell them about the sort of budget you have and what kind of thing you want to wear, they will choose something precisely adequate for you. Try going there once.”

“Th…thank you very much, lieutenant Kira”

Hanataro bowed his head to Izuru over and over again until he was halted by Izuru who said “that’s enough!”.

“I, should wear Western clothes~! I wonder if you will invite Ichigo and Orihime chan too?”

“That’s right……! Of course we will speak with them!”

Renji replied to Yumichika, he then asked Rukia “is that okay?”

Rukia nodded 'of course’ enthusiastically.

“……for a while, things will become more busy now……”

Uttering that her face radiated bright with joy.

End.

Fixed thanks anon!
