"Hello there viewers...Zachary here...it is nice to see you all again...Now then viewers, before I proceed forward with this particular chapter...and like always viewers...a chapter recap is in order first...now then viewers...let us begin the chapter recap now, okay?...Now then...what do you say, that we get on with it now...okay?"
Date: July 1, 2019
Okay, so getting back to the current situation at hand. And with regard to yet another unexpected encounter that was just about to happen yet again...
"Hey, you with the long light blue hair! You've got a lot of nerve walking out on me the last time we crossed paths with each other!" A very unmistakable and very annoyed sounding female voice proceeded to shout out quite angrily over to Shinko in her direction with.
And knowing all too well who the voice belonged to. And as Shinko then proceeded to turn her attention slightly around with this very realization and thought in mind...
"And you expected me to have had some sort control on that how exactly Ryoko? You know? For a so called knowledgeable and quite feared Space Pirate and criminal, you aren't exactly heavy on the whole supposed 'knowledge' aspect are you? Ah, and I see that Tenchi is with you as well. I mean what, you can't go out in public without him being with you? Or perhaps..." Shinko had proceeded to say to the now correctly identified Ryoko.
Which as usual, Shinko had proceeded to say this to Ryoko, in a very smug and witty sounding tone. And, she had also proceeded to say this back to Ryoko in response with, while an equally smug and witty looking smirk, was also currently present on her face.
And, as usual, as well as not surprising at all in the slightest...
"If I were you, then I would watch what words you say next. Because as far as I am concerned..." Ryoko proceeded to say back to Shinko in response. But, the only trouble with this, is that during when Ryoko had proceeded to say this back to Shinko in response. Shinko simply just wound up turning back around, as if Ryoko hadn't just said anything to her.
To which Shinko then proceeded to attempt to carry on what she had been trying to say to everyone else, before Gojo, Ryoko, Tenchi, Ayeka, Mihoshi, and Kiyone had wound up here with us.
And as for Shinko's attempted continuation regarding what she had been trying to say to the rest of our allies that had already been present...
"Okay minna, now as I was saying, we need to find out who is responsible for..." Shinko proceeded to say. Which she had also proceeded to say to everyone of our allies that had been present before Gojo, Ryoko, Tenchi, Ayeka, Mihoshi, and Kiyone had arrived.
But, not surprisingly...
"Hey, don't turn away from me! We're not finished with our conversation here!" Ryoko then proceeded to say quite angrily back to Shinko in response with. Which she had proceeded to say back to Shinko in response with, with a very agitated and very angry sounding tone to her voice.
And, as for Shinko's response back to Ryoko. Which Shinko had proceeded to say, while her back was still to her, and just after Shinko had proceeded to let out a very aggravated sounding sigh from her mouth. And she then proceeded to say a bit more aggressively back to Ryoko in response with...
"No Ryoko, that's where you're wrong! As I think that you will find, that our conversation is indeed over! Or, would you like me to have one or several of my already present allies, to attempt to show you why you're the one who is wrong in this situation?!" Shinko then proceeded to say. Which even though she had proceeded to say this back to Ryoko while her back was still turned.
Shinko had still proceeded to wear a similar and somewhat dark looking expression, that would once again make one Captain Unohana proud.
But, strangely enough, just the tone of Shinko's voice when she had proceeded to respond back to Ryoko with, seemed to do the trick just fine. And as a way to confirm this being the case...
"R-right, m-my mistake. H-how silly of me, please continue," Ryoko suddenly wound up saying to Shinko in response, with quite an audible sounding stutter to her current tone of voice.
And as for Shinko's response back to Ryoko. As well as back to Tenchi, Ayeka, Mihoshi, and Kiyone along with Ryoko...
"Thank you Ryoko, apology accepted. And let that be a harsh lesson Ryoko, for you not to interrupt me while I am talking to everyone else about something important. Now then, Tenchi, Ayeka, Mihoshi, and Kiyone, do any of you have any sort of problem with me at the current moment? Or can I now continue saying what I still need to say to everyone else, and not run the risk of any of the rest of you proceeding to go and interrupt me like Ryoko decided to go and do?" Shinko then proceeded to follow up with saying to Tenchi, Ayeka, Mihoshi, and Kiyone with.
Which, just like when she had proceeded to say a similar previous statement of hers as a response back to Ryoko with. Shinko had proceeded to say this statement of hers as well, to Tenchi, Ayeka, Mihoshi, and Kiyone, with the exact same somewhat dark looking expression on her face, that would once again make one Captain Unohana proud.
And thankfully...
"N-no, none of us have problem with that at all Shinko, please continue," Tenchi proceeded to say back to Shinko in response with. Which he had proceeded to say back to Shinko in response with, with a tone to his voice almost identical with how Ryoko had proceeded to say her own apologetic statement to Shinko, not even a minute prior.
And as for Shinko and her response back to Tenchi...
"Alright, very good then. Now minna, as I was saying, I think that our first priority, is to find out who is responsible for framing Zoro. Now then Rukia, can you Renji, and the rest of the Gotei 13, go and attempt to gather as much info as you can on who would have the authority and the power to..." Shinko proceeded to try and say to Rukia with.
The only trouble was, that someone else, had then proceeded to speak up. Which not surprisingly, had now caused one of Shinko's eyes, to now start visibly twitching again.
And as for who had decided to interrupt Shinko this time? Well, about that...
"Oh, that won't be necessary, as I already know who it is that framed him," Mihoshi of all people then proceeded to speak up with.
And as for Shinko, and what she thought of this statement that Mihoshi had just said out of seemingly nowhere...
"Wait, are you serious? How on earth did you manage that Mihoshi?" Shinko proceeded to say back to Mihoshi in response. Which for the moment, a look of a bit of somewhat visible shock and surprise, was currently present on her face.
"Oh, I forgot to mention, I remember watching an episode of One Piece on the tv once. Which is why I know that the Shogun of Wano, is the one that framed Zoro," Mihoshi proceeded to say in response. Which she had proceeded to say, while she was also currently giving a closed eyes smile.
And as for Shinko...
"Okay Mihoshi, so why exactly did you not say this sooner?" Shinko proceeded to say. Which she had proceeded to say, while a sweatdrop was also now currently visible, on one side of her face.
And as for Mihoshi's response back...
"Well I had an idea, and I know from past experiences that if I rushed with saying it, then I would possibly look foolish. So, I had to think about it, let it mature, and make sure that it wasn't foolish for me to say," Mihoshi proceeded to say.
And as for Shinko, and her overall response with regard to this...
"Well then, thank you for taking your time to do that Mihoshi. And by the way viewers, Shinko her by the way again...*Shinko proceeds to say this, while smiling with both of her eyes closed. To which she then proceeds to open both of them up again, in order to continue, to properly address the viewers*...And for those of you viewers who were wondering, yes, that was an indirect reference just now, to Amazon Prime's The Grand Tour Season 4, Episode 02: A Massive Hunt. You know the one, right viewers? It's the one that featured Clarkson, Hammond, and May, on the island of Reunion, and Madagascar. But anyway viewers, this now marks the end of this chapter. But as usual viewers, we will be getting right back into the action in the next chapter. So viewers, from me, Zachary, Keiko, and the rest of our allies of The Four Aces Alliance. And with this now very much still fresh on all of you minds. We all look forward to seeing you all in the next chapter. So viewers, see you all there, okay?...*Shinko proceeds to say this while also proceeding to smile, with both of her eyes closed in a cute looking manner*"
And now that the chapter recap is over and done with. Well, at least for now, we will now proceed on with the chapter at hand.
Date: July 1, 2019
Okay, so getting back to the current situation at hand. Which as it just so happened from the tail end of chapter 222. Was just after Mihoshi, had not only told us who was responsible for framing Zoro. But also, with Mihoshi having said this very statement of hers. This wound up giving Shinko an idea.
One, that interestingly enough, would wind up giving us all a very big advantage in some of the next anime canon timelines that we would be ending up in the future.
But anyway with regard to everyone else, as well as their current, sudden, and overall realization. As to their response to what Mihoshi had just said back at the tail end of chapter 222...
"Are you seriously kidding me right now Mihoshi?! You seriously couldn't have told us all about this important bit of information sooner?!" Kiyone had now decided to say to Mihoshi. Which Kiyone had proceeded to say to Mihoshi, while quite a bit of noticeable frustration and anger, were both currently present in her tone of voice.
Which she had also proceeded to say to Mihoshi, while a somewhat sizeable tickmark, was also currently present quite visibly on one side of her face.
And as for some of everyone else, with regard to our current allies that were also currently present...
"Honestly Mihoshi, Kiyone is right, why didn't you tell us all about this sooner?" Ayeka now decided to chime in with saying to Mihoshi with.
Which similar to that of how Kiyone had said her most recent statement to Mihoshi. And though Ayeka had not exactly in the same way as her. Ayeka had proceeded to chime in with having said her statement to Mihoshi, with a slight hint of frustration to her tone. Mind you, it was less obvious then when Kiyone had just recently spoken up with her overall thoughts, on how Mihoshi had withheld this very important piece of information.
But then, and yet quite surprisingly...
"Okay, that's enough from you both! Mihoshi doesn't deserve this kind of behavior from either of you!" Scarlet now proceeded to chime in with response to both Ayeka and Kiyone's unnecessary behavior.
But, however...
"Scarlet, I appreciate you standing up for Mihoshi. But that won't be necessary. As how both Kiyone and Ayeka just acted towards Mihoshi, is a common occurrence in their respective anime timeline. And though I do appreciate you doing so regardless of this. For the foreseeable future Scarlet, it won't be necessary," Shinko proceeded to say back to Scarlet in response with. Which she had also proceeded to say to Scarlet, while slightly turning her attention as well as her eyesight towards Scarlet.
Which Shinko had also proceeded to say over to her, while also proceeding to follow her statement up, with a closed eyes smile.
And thankfully with regard to Scarlet. Even though she didn't wind up saying anything back to Shinko in response. She did however, wound up nodding her head in response to Shinko's statement. Which was a way for her to indicate to Shinko, that she understood that attempting to put both Ayeka and Kiyone in their place for acting aggressive towards Mihoshi, wasn't going to be necessary.
"Now viewers, I think that it should go without me having to reiterate again with saying. Oh right, Shinko here by the way again viewers...*Shinko proceed to say this, while smiling with both of her eyes closed. To which she then proceeds to open both of them up again, in order to continue, to properly address the viewers*...Now then viewers, as I am sure you are abundantly aware, Scarlet is our friend and ally, nothing more. Because as I have said countless times before in previous chapters. Me, Zachary, and Keiko, aren't going to be having any love interests at any point in these fanfics. I mean after all viewers, that's if you haven't gone and either skimmed, or skipped through any of the previous chapters of either this fic, or the other three that are connected to this one. Oh, and Chong Lor? So you waited five years to then decide to come back and try to kill the good reputation of these four fanfics? Which for those of you viewers, who don't already know about Chong Lor, and who she is? Well she is a well known Sailor Moon art thief. Who similar to how Gordon Ramsay would say, 'she lost the plot a long time ago.' Or to put in a more simpler sort of terminology viewers. She's just straight up crazy, as well as quite a bit mentally unstable. Oh that's right, I almost forgot! Hey Hinagiku, can you please come over here for a second?...*Shinko proceeds to say this, while also proceeding to turn her attention slightly behind her. Which is then followed by Hinagiku proceeding to come into the frame of shot*"
"Yes Shinko, what is it that you wanted to talk to me about?...*Hinagiku proceeds to say this to Shinko, with a slight look of intrigue currently being present on her face*"
"Well Hinagiku. Me, and the rest of our friends and allies, would like to wish you a happy birthday. I mean after all, your birthday is on May 5. Which, as of this current chapter viewers, is tomorrow...*Shinko proceeds to say this, just as the rest of our other allies, then proceed to come into the frame of shot. To which each of them proceed to either take turns, or in pairs or more, wishing Hinagiku a happy birthday*"
"T-thank you Shinko, this means a lot...*Hinagiku proceeds to say this to Shinko, with a somewhat small, but still noticeable smile on her face*"
"You're quite welcome Hinagiku. I mean after all, you're a great friend as well as an ally to me, and everyone else in our alliance. And viewers? Let me once again remind you all, that she, like Scarlet, is a friend and an ally, and nothing more. So don't be getting any weird ideas about that not being the case alright? Anyway viewers, this now marks the end of this particular chapter. But like always viewers, we will be getting right back into the action in the next chapter. So viewers, from me, Zachary, Keiko, and the rest of our allies of The Four Aces Alliance. And with this now very much still fresh on all of you minds. We all look forward to seeing you all in the next chapter. So viewers, see you all there, okay?...*Shinko proceeds to say this while also proceeding to smile, with both of her eyes closed in a very cute looking manner*"
