Isane Kotetsu, Yoruichi Shihouin and Yuzu Kurosaki-Shiba are making their way to Kūkaku Shiba's compound when Isane gets a look at Yoruichi who is running just ahead of her and she noticed a faint second and distantly separate Retsu forming.

Isane thinks, she could be, Preg…. Only time will tell.

Yoruichi walks up to Kūkaku Shiba's door thinking, I cover this distance five times a day, why am I winded.

"Kūkaku" Yoruichi said, "I've come to check up on the child if you don't mind, I brought Medical!"

Isane, and Yuzu step forward, "Auntie" Yuzu said, "I'm sure dad checked him over."

Kūkaku Shiba sizes up her niece saying, "He did say you will be getting your Doctor's license"

Got it already, once my apprenticeship with Isane has progressed a bit more I will have an office here, and at Urahara's"

She led the way to a sleeping baby boy, and Isane Kotetsu examines him first then Yuzu does her own examination saying, "Other than being slightly jaundiced he is fine, I suggest taking him out in shaded sun for about an hour a day to help the problem."

"I don't suppose you have cows here do you" Yuzu said.

"What's a cow" Kūkaku said dumbfounded by the question.

"A source of milk" Yuzu explained as a low grumble came out of her mouth, "Well I guess a trip to the real world is in order"


Later that day Yuzu was showing Kūkaku how to mix up a bottle of Similac Pro-Advance (HMO) Non-GMO Infant Formula Powder.

"Mothers milk is best but that's not an option here" Yuzu told them

Her mentor Isane Kotetsu,foud the process quite interesting, as Yuzu explained the water to formula ratios and even how to put the bottles together.

Then she picks up Kazui in her arms and Yuzu gently put the bottle in his mouth and fed him as both women looked on in amazement. As she finish feeding him Yuzu held her nephew when Kazui made a noise, "G-r-a-a-a-a"

Kazui eyes go wide when he here the noise

Looking at her elders faces Yuzu chuckles saying, "He is just burping"

"I assume you have Diapers"

Kūkaku grabs some Double weave muslin gauze saying, "I usually use these to pack my gun powder."

"Perfect" Yuzu said as she started folding it, had it on Kazui in the blink of an eyes!

From the door Yoruichi marveled at Yuzu, as she held her sleeping nephew in her arms.

"Yoruichi" Yuzu called handing the child to her Yuzu said in a whisper, "If I'm right your going to need the practice sooner rather than later"

"Aunt Yuzu" Kūkaku said almost motherly, "Has quite the ring to it"

Yoruichi said, "I know you initiated him into your clan already, I would like to initiate him into mine."

'When you get older, I will tell you about how your mother helped save Rukia Kuchiki and so more!"


Meanwhile in The Sōkyoku Hill training ground Ichigo is working with his sister Karin on the basics of swordsmanship.

"Now Karin" Ichigo said sit cross-legged and ley the Zanpakutō across your lap and open yourself to it.

"Ōetsu !" Ichigo said, "Thank you for coming"

Ōetsu Nimaiya Looked at Ichigo and said, "I still don't understand why I am here!"

Sighing Ichigo told him, "Because me sister has a Zanpakutō, and there has only been one other fire type!"

"Ryūjin Jakka" Ōetsu said, looking at Karin, he asks, "How does it Manifest itself"

A woman who looks like Karin herself appears, she looks well-tanned with dark read patches spread sporadically over her skin, saying, "Ōetsu Nimaiya, I can't go into my true form here Your Seireitei, even Soul King Palace itself would be reduced a burning pile of rubble"

Inclining her head to Ichigo, "She said, like you she has yet to learn how strong she is, but unlike you she has yet to tap into that ability"

Ōetsu realizes the implications of what she is saying as she says, "My name is Sekiryu, I am old enough to have seen the spark that created the heavens, the earth and the universe itself!"

"That means we would need to create a new dimension just to train her!" Ichigo said softly.

Chuckling Sekiryu said, "You are funny races, Your Kidō is but a pale imitation of Dragon Arts, pocket dimensions are as easy as blinking an eye"

Shaking his head Ōetsu Nimaiya said, "Looks like your training with Zero Kid"

As Sekiryu Faded from view her disembodied voice said, "Shinigami use magic, I was born from magic"

(You use Magic, I am Magic)


As they walk the gardens of the Shiba Estates that afternoon Yuzu Kurosaki- Shiba and her father Isshin discuss a secret Yuzu has been keeping.

"So, you graduated Medical School Yuzu, what field" Isshin asks his daughter.

"I did a dual residency Obgyn and Pediatrics" Yuzu said, "Both of which are in need here in Soul Society."

That got her fathers attention, as Yuzu said, "Kazui is in good health, and I showed Kūkaku how to make up formula"

"But!" Isshin said quizzically.

"I don't think Yoruichi realizes it herself and without a test I can't be sure!"

"You think she is Pregnant!" Isshin asks

"Not just me, Isane told me she noticed a faint second and distantly separate Retsu forming in Yoruichi's belly"

"Have to get her to show me how to do that one" Yuzu said as she chuckled!

"You really are Amazing Yuzu" Isshint told her, "How did you manage 2 residencies'"

"Well, the instructors gave me credits for working at the clinic" Yuzu said, "I tested out of most of the basic stuff"
