...I don't understand how bathing together will give us proof of our... "nakama-ness", as you put it.

THE ULTIMATE TRUST IS BEING ABLE TO SIT ON A SMALL CHAIR WHILE NAKED, WITH YOUR BACK TO SOMEONE ELSE.

...that Ryohei might actually have a point there. But.

Not interested.

BUT I WANT TO BE NAKED WITH EVERYONE! WE ARE NAKAMA!

Are we?

OF COURSE WE ARE. LIVE TOGETHER FIGHT TOGETHER BLEED TOGETHER SWEAT TOGETHER EAT TOGETHER!

BATHE TOGETHER IS THE LAST STEP TO EXTREME NAKAMA-NESS!

actually of the belief that there's a step *beyond* bathing together, but...

NAKEDNESS IS PROOF OF TRUE NAKAMA-NESS !

....Hahaha.

that Hibari doubts his wise words.

You're right about doubting.

Hibari is always doubting! HOW CAN YOU DOUBT NAKEDNESS?

that this conversation is amusing him a lot more than it should.

blames it on Cavallone.

HIBARI IS NOT EXTREME.
