At the Ubuyashiki garden, Shinobu Kochou, Tengen Uzui, Mitsuri Kanroji, Rengoku Kyojuro, Muichiro Tokito, Obanai Iguro, Sanemi Shinazugawa, and Gyomei Himejima are scattered around, waiting for one more Hashira to arrive…

There are some very quiet footsteps, they all look in unison as the final Hashira arrives, Giyuu Tomioka.

Sanemi quickly shouts, “Look who decided to finally show the fuck up, Tomioka.” He grunts.

Obanai chimes in, enjoying bullying Giyuu, “Of course, he believes he is too good for us to show up on time.”

Shinobu surprisingly speaks up for Giyuu, as she is usually the one teasing him, “Now now, Tomioka-san has atleast arrived now so we can-“

“Be quiet.” Sanemi quickly stops her.

The rest of the Hashiras start to bicker loudly, until Gyomei claps his hands together, causing a massive shockwave. The Hashiras all immediately stop and go quiet. He speaks, his voice deep and slow yet calming, “Stop fighting and sit down, Tomioka-san has arrived.” A tear runs down his eye.
