36th step: Triumph

[favorthebold]

Hah. And I had feared that things had blown over.

Are you at last happy, you Shinigami, now that more blood's been spilled? And you men of Konoha? I suppose it doesn't matter. You've done nothing to stop this, and won't be doing anything different in the future, I wager.

And that's true for all you madmen of this city, make no mistake. None of you are safe. Take care who you look up to as your healers and guardians.

My regards to your brother, dome Izuna. Sometimes it seems a shame that we must be enemies.



This has gone well, and better than well... but it will take a subtler hand than mine, now, and one less known, to truly make the notch in doma Unohana's reputation. In case you desire the pleasure.

What does it matter? They know his power and his danger; are they unwilling to end him, or are they simply too weak?

Everyone's been doing their best to make sure that he can't do what he's doing in our world without dragging the rest of the city in!

Then everyone's best is not very good.

It's more important to try your best than it is to just do everything without caring.

Fancy talk for a child at play, domeina. In war, you win or you lose; how hard you tried matters not at all.

It doesn't always have to come to that, you know.

It seems to me that it has come to it already.
