Inari wants to live in peace

Episode 30 Shiro Amakusa (6) Firecracker

By pulling my left foot forward and repeating it alternately before my right foot sinks, I rushed over the surface at an incredible speed.

I'm sure he was unconsciously releasing the fox fire from his toes to keep it from sinking.

Instead of running parallel to the target merchant fleet, they quickly overtook it because they were in a hurry.

But the fox daughter couldn't stop suddenly because she would sink if she stopped moving.

So I jumped out in front of the merchant convoy, and kicked the surface of the water and jumped.

A huge splash of water rose behind me, but the extent was a minor problem.

I will take a spin in the air and land dangerously in front of the deck of the largest ship in the convoy.

I don't feel like going to the Olympics, but if there were a jury, I would score ten points.It was such a splendid leap.

Leaving many of the confused sailors unattended, I breathe and then clear my ears again.

Then, as usual, I heard mourning and sadness, so I felt certain that I was on this ship.

Then there is one thing to do: correct your posture and cough up the cohon.

As usual, I told the sailors who were still looking stunned that there was no need for a rough negotiation.

"Inari, the god emperor, commands me.

We will now arrest your merchant convoy and investigate, so return to port immediately. "

After listening to what I had just said, I was able to split my reaction brilliantly between those who were disturbing things without grasping them, and those who were desperate about their own destiny.

When I saw it, I somehow realized that there were not only people on the merchant ship who were involved in the slave trade, but also people who were doing serious work without knowing anything.

However, the merchant convoy did not stop moving, and there was no turning back to the port.

Standing majestically in front of the deck, I think that if I don't listen to the orders, I have to do Plan B, and I put my hand to my mouth to work out an alternative.

The deck remained quiet, and about a minute later, the Japanese, who appeared to be the representative of the merchant ship, smiled softly and advanced right in front of me.

By the way, he had a crucifix hanging high on his chest, so he turned out to be a Christian.

"This is Inari God.Welcome to my merchant ship. "

"I don't need your help. Return to the harbor as ordered."

Tell the merchant ship's uncle not to smile and ask him to return to the harbor again.

He smiled in trouble.

"Suddenly they came aboard the ship and said they were going to arrest Panama.

We are innocent merchants and we never dye our hands illegally ─ ─ "

I was impressed by the thickness of the skin on the face because I insisted on innocence in a sober manner, but I was not envious of it.

But for me, who is now hearing the mourning and grief of those who are being held in slavery, it is nothing but a speech that caresses my nerves.

So I talked to him again with a stronger tone than before.

"Are you really clean merchants?"

"Yes, I swear to God, I will never lie."

When I exhale and look at the direction of the port town, I can see that it goes away step by step without slowing down the speed.

That means he didn't want to turn back as ordered, and he chose to go to the next dealer or run away.

There may be other thoughts, but after I exhale a stupid sigh, I give orders with a harsh expression.

"Well, let's change the way we say it.Participation in slavery and sales now aboard the ship.

I will investigate your case at the Shimabara Executive Office, and I will order you to appear. "

A merchant of good breadth who heard this remark suddenly lost his expression and became confused.

And after a while, if you smile bitterly, shrug your shoulders and take a slow distance from me.

"No, no, did you already know that?

Driftstone is the supreme ruler of this country.Very brilliant and revealing. "

Instead of him falling back, a bunch of stubborn men came forward.

Moreover, each of them has a firearm in line, apparently intimidating me.

"If you don't interrupt our business, you can go home in peace."

I somehow expected that it might be a troublesome development.

"And Little Princess, even if he's smart, jumps into the dead to save the weak.

The depth of mercy is a strength, but I can only say stupidity at this moment. "

When I called it Little Princess instead of Inari God, I felt dull.

Instead of dyeing in fox color, these merchants are less aware of the Japanese people and are either missionaries or allies of trading nations.

Above all, the slave trade is lucrative, but I banned it.Domestic demand is decreasing, but foreign demand is costly.

If you want to make money, even if you cross a dangerous bridge, you don't know how you feel about joining us.

However, he exhales a big sigh and asks if it has caused trouble.

"So? What are you going to do with this?"

"Of course, I will catch you here.

Evidence will only be destroyed, and if we miss it here, it's a huge loss. "

I thought it would be a lot bigger, but I was not afraid of the people who were lined up with firecrackers.

I don't know if you're training to contain emotions or trusting firearms, but this looks like a little bone fracture.

And while he watched me as worthy, he leaked his voice with a smiling expression, but honestly it was disgusting.

"The Little Princess looks very cute, so many enthusiasts will love it.

Or it could be used as a tool to threaten politics, beliefs, or this country. "

This means that it is almost certain that this merchant has a thick pipe with a foreign country.

And I've had enough testimony that they're people who participate in such crimes.

Then stop the ship's legs and take it back to shore.Afterwards, he was given a full confession at the police station.

I decided it would be futile to think about it now.

I broke into a discount while the merchant was still talking.

"I'll give you one last order.Return to the harbor now. "

This is the final warning, but the people around me not only laughed at me like I was a fool, but also spoke magnificently.

"Little Princess, are you stupid?"

Hearing his dialogues, I came with the chin to move with emotion.

And I knew it, but I still didn't hear it.

Instead, he threatens the tough men around him with instructions to aim the muzzle at him.

"Little Princess! We're in command!

If you don't want to get hurt, lay your head down and beg for your life! "

But I blew it out in many ways, and in response to the merchant, where would I blow such threats?

Whether that's the case or not, he speaks bluntly while performing a preparatory exercise on the deck.

"No, but I refuse."

Now that I have categorically rejected the offer of surrender from the bad merchant, there is one thing to do.It was a musculoskeletal push, and I only knew it was limited to this hand.

You can't use fox fire this time.Because it is a wooden ship, it burns quickly the moment it ignites.

Then the only way to disable the attacking enemies is to kick them.

There are other merchant ships around, so I honestly don't know how many people I should have.

This time, it is expected to be quite a long journey, so you may want to keep your body loose as a precaution before you engage in intense exercise, no matter how tireless your fox daughter.

But the merchant gave instructions to the tough man who was nearby as to how long he had paralyzed me without surrendering.

"Hey, shoot me and freak me out."

Does he resist firing on a boulder, regardless of pointing his gun at the supreme ruler of Japan?

I replied slightly scared.

Okay, are you sure?

"I don't mind. I'm just threatening you."

Even if it was a whisper, the fox could hear the whole thing.

A powerful man holds a firecracker that looks like a militia drop, carefully targeting me as he continues his preparations.

And I heard a gunpowder explosion called bread.

The bullet was fired vigorously, trying to scoop near my right cheek.

Yoo-hoo

I don't know what happened to them, but I randomly picked the projectile with my thumb and index finger.

What!?

In addition, not only did I deliberately drop it on the deck, but I stepped on it with a more sturdy waste than steel and buried it lightly, as shown to those gathered here.

As a matter of fact, I feel pretty good inside, so I want them to understand the current situation.

"Ah! It's the devil!"

"No, I am Inari God."

The faces of the merchants and vigilantes who had been strong up until now were bluishing.

Conversely, I smile without losing my spare face, which is the subject of the captivity.

It's time to finish the preparatory exercise, so stretch out lightly and stare at them trembling in fear.

It is clearly the composition of the hunter and the hunter, and the time has come to mock the armed merchant fleet.

"Oh, crush the devil who avenges God!"

With a loud voice from the merchant who seems to be the chief executive of the scene, the vigilantes who were trembling on the deck shook their fears and killed them and stood up with a torpedo gun.

And I stood on the leading deck, aiming through the rays in the form of a reverse fan.

But I noticed it here.

If we move around to avoid it, we'll hit each other or there 'll be holes in the ship that will leak water.

In that case, everyone but myself would be seaweed.

With no mouth on the dead, the worst group of killers remains unknown.

Besides, if we can't rescue the captive slaves, there's no point getting in there with courage.

If so, should it be unilaterally attacked by the royal family because it is intact even if it is hit?

It's kind of stupid, and characters like Lick in cartoons and animations get a fatal blow after being careless.

In the short time before the bullet was fired, I had such thoughts.

"Kill, at our hands, believers of the Great Lord!Defeat the terrible demon! "

At the same time as the merchant's voice, a bullet popped out from the tip of the torch gun and came at me.

As always, I couldn't afford to deal with it after looking at it, so I grabbed it carefully one by one.

Can't you shoot it continuously?I don't know if I thought I could get rid of it with a single blow, but the explosion of gunpowder stopped, so I shouted with a blank expression.

"Is it over?"

"Whoa! What is it!?"

After showing a total of dozens of bullets that fit in both hands, squeeze them into a large chunk.

Then drop it on the deck and let it sink with its feet as before.

Merchants and crew members who look pale and start shaking their feet like deer, but they still have firearms so they can't be alarmed.

So I remembered hearing from the militia that it was difficult to fire a straw gun in a row.

Now it's my turn.

Next round ─ ─

Unfortunately, the merchant could only speak so much.

Because in an instant I was thin, punched in the face, blown away, and fainted.

Without stopping my hand, I prioritized the target who had the firearm, disabling it one after the other at a speed beyond my eyes.

A skilled person would have been able to reload the next bullet in less than ten seconds, but that was a fatal gap for me.

Breaking your arms and legs and crushing your jaw sinks mercilessly.If you want to resist at all, you'll need to certify your enemies at that point.

As a result, the crew completely disabled the armed crew in less than a few minutes, moving endlessly and vertically over the deck.
