That was on the verge of the departure of Yoshio Otomo from the port of Shanghai.
When did the strange old man show up to speak in a crouched voice?
"Ugh... Lord. He wants to rebuild his home..."
Still in disillusionment, the orthodox snorts silently. The old man, with a creepy grin as satisfied with the way it was, whispered in the ear of his in-laws.
"My wish... shall I fulfill it?
The tone of the orthodox changed to the word.
With a stunned look, I find the old man.
"Instead... because of promises"
"What...?
The first tradition of opening a mouth against an old man. The words bore the flame of ambition that was lurking, as the old man who hears them on the side knew to take it.
And the old man spoke even less of his voice and "promised".
"When the time comes... kill Hideyoshi Toyotomi"

5 Years of Celebration (1600) September 4th -
Ichiyoshi Ota, the castle owner of Mortar Castle, had welcomed one guest into the castle.
The guest's name is Yoshio Otomo. Needless to say, I am a direct descendant of Mr. Otomo, a famous family member from Toyoko.
Ever since Hideyoshi was expelled from the land, he was also close to a wanderer.
But he said that he came back to Kyushu this time with the life of Maori Daihan (about Maori Huiyuan) to control the castle of forces involved in the Tokugawa side.
Toyomoto wants us to work together because he wants to rely on this mortar castle, which was originally his castle, and after accumulating ministers and troops, he wants us to set up a matrix for attacking each castle.
Ichiyoshi Ota believed the words and welcomed him into the castle. And then it's already about 7 days.
Would a boulder be rotten or something like Mr. Otomo...
From Hideyosei Nakagawa of Takeda Castle, who joined Tokugawa's side, in addition to old ministers such as Tahara's parents, Miscellaneous soldiers have also begun to assemble.
It was unthinkable in Ichichi, its influence or, in other words, its "appearance".
Finally, tomorrow, a little banquet was held to celebrate the Tokugawa side, Tadahiro Hoshikawa, at Toyomae's pestle castle.
It took place between the sights, but according to the number of ministers participating in the banquet, the Otomo lineage was no longer surpassed, and his soldiers were also appreciated for their perimeter vigilance.
Already a few moments after the banquet started...
We are completely up late at night, and some of them have begun to get upset.
"Oh... now if there was a late Hideyoshi, how would he mourn..."
In the meantime, Ichiyoshi was completely drunk and mourning the situation and so on.
He was originally close to Sansei Ishida, and the idea is similar again. For this reason, the Toyotomi family doesn't seem to be worried about the future.
But such as his grief, he looks so strange and his righteousness keeps drinking. Ichichi, who learned a bit of frustration with the way it looked,
"My lord in law seems to be silent from earlier, but what do you think of this possibility?!? Let me tell you something!
And, bringing the red face closer to the orthodox, I stuffed it.
"I don't care what you say. I don't care what you think."
And the Orthodox answered to let go, without a particular island.
In contrast, Ichichi quickly argued, while eating his face at the too fragile answer.
"I can't think of anything," he said!? So why gather your troops and attack Pestle Castle!? Isn't that to say goodbye to Tokugawa's thoughts?
To Yichi, who protests with a bright red face, the Orthodox gives a glance (the best),
"No, I was ordered to get paid, so I'm just going to attack.
I don't care if it's a new world or Tokugawa hatred. "
And I assured him to just cut it off again.
To its overly thin grass, Mitsune's bloody Ichigi was cut off from Kannan Bag.
"All of you! Step by step! I didn't think you were such a flirtatious person! Get out of this castle now!
And how scattered he got up.
The brother-in-law only had a spooky smile of "you took it" for a moment, but immediately turned it into an angry look,
"To me, a guest and a famous Toyoko family, it's rude of me to leave!
And I returned it out loud. Even the liquor feels too much in there and irrational, but that's just his act. Now he was calmly identifying "then" opportunities.
And as he thinks, Ichichi falls into a trap.
"Yes! Can't you hear me, the castle lord!?
"Shut up! Don't want to have a big mouth on the newcomer you came later!
I'm more desirable in this land right now!
A system where Ichiyoshi relentlessly pokes where he most doesn't want to be poked. It is, of course, a provocation to make it more intense.
But Ichichi, who doesn't even know dew such as that, completely flew away in reason, attracting himself the "then" that his righteousness waited for.
"Rude! No more forgiveness! It cuts me off on this occasion!
"Wow! What are you going to do! Yes! Everyone's! Meet me!"
Then, as if waiting, the Otomo warriors came into the room in large numbers.
There seems to be something about how handy it is that I've noticed just as much luck.
"All of you! You weighed it!?
And I blued my face and woke up drunk.
But the biting fangs of the orthodox gently flush their venom into the body of Ichigo.
"I'm sorry to hear how you and I got cut off by the quote that was thrown down.
It belongs to everyone! Do it!
and directed an attack on Ichichi and his ministers after justifying the act.
All of Ichiyoshi's ministers drink too much and move dull. Before I knew what it was, I lay down one life after another on the ferocious blade of the soldiers of my father-in-law.
"You! Don't think I'm sorry I did this!
And, along with the throwaway dialogue, Ichiyoshi manages to escape and lay low on the spot.
But the righteousness is not sweet enough to let him slip away.
When he slipped out the knife he put on his hips, he thrust it from the back of the one lucky man running away.
The knife is pierced to the belly.
A much closer in-laws spoke with a voice down from his back to Ichiyoshi.
"It's not a world where congratulations (from Yashi) can survive without thinking about their own interests and mourning the times.
I didn't realize you were a loser from the beginning. "
"Ki... you... you bastard..."
Ichiyoshi gets the utmost outrage in his distant consciousness. But to the present system, it only sounds praiseworthy.
And it exploded as a laugh of joy.
"Hi-ha! Fine in the lower house! You're right to survive! You're going to die. You were wrong! That thought, that life!
Die through your righteousness, cross the river in gratitude to me! Hi-ha! "

The next morning...
The castle was marked with the flag of Otomo everywhere, and it was burned down all over the Ota family.
As such, the relatives of Ichiyoshi Ota, and some ministers who did not intend to obey the law, were all captured and executed.
Finally, Mortar Castle was to welcome the original lord, Yoshio Otomo, son of Sorin Otomo, as castle lord.
This tragic event, dubbed "Weird of Mortar Castle," caused many to lose their lives, beginning with Ichiyoshi Ota.
And that meant that "Mr. Otomo's Rehabilitation," a sorrow of the orthodox, was established.
And this case will become a big rock that will hold back the path of excellence in the future...
That's another story...
