5 Years of Celebration (1600) October 6th Answer Shishima -

Approximately a hundred soldiers, led by Goemon Toyota, descended into the port of Anshima.

"Aim for Karaoke Kyugi and Yoshiji Otani! We should always be together! Blink it out with fire, tear it apart!

Go!! "

Goro, the right guard is getting off the boat. No, he ordered that out loud.

Soldiers entering the fishermen's settlement near the harbor with a loud voice.

After the morning fishing, the relaxed fishermen were surprised and all took their families to scatter and flee.

The soldiers set fire to it after checking inside every house and admitting they were deserted.

It was, at the very least, a pity that this Anshijima that was attacking was also their territory, coming from their sorry feelings for the fishermen.

But because the people marched on waiting to escape like that, the invasion would hardly proceed.

In the end, it took a considerable amount of time after we got down to the harbor to finally get from the first settlement to the next.

Of course Goro Rightmen is angry at the port where he got off alone, not "ok".

"Yep! What are you doing so much trouble when you're a fisherman without a weapon!

But still, he wouldn't try to be on the front line, not just because he knew Kalong and Yoshiji were on this island, but because he was concerned that if he got into battle with them, he would get involved.

And in the next settlement where the soldiers were headed, Yoshiji Otani and Toyomae Aoyama, along with five soldiers of Kalong's children, were waiting.

Just seven of the hundreds of soldiers decided it was too dangerous to storm without any help, Yoshiji and Toyomae, biting their lips, watched the settlement near the harbor burn down from the mountains that were high up.

But it must not have been just them, but the five soldiers there and the villagers who evacuated them some time ago thought the same thing.

"You're ruining our village! I can't forgive you anymore!

Yoshiji controls that one of the villagers, who turned bright red in his face, tried to jump out of the high ground.

"Stop it! If you go now, you're just gonna die a dog!

From the settlement near the port to the next settlement, it is necessary to pass through a tunnel sandwiched by fields.

Straw is laid on the fields that have already been mowed. The soldiers have stepped on dried straw, not just on the pavement.

And it was when the soldiers tried to break into the next settlement.

"Hey! Oh, my God!

One armored samurai rushed over waving a white flag.

When a soldier realizes who the warrior is, he stops, and the other soldiers stop.

"That must be Toyomae Aoyama! How'd it go?

Yes, they know that Toyomae Shosho went to Kalong Kyugi as the use of Goro Toyota's right guard, but they don't know that he confronts Goro Toyota's right guard's soldiers as Kalong's side.

Rather, many soldiers thought they were on their side.

The soldiers waited as the Toyotomi guard turned blue in his face and ran over to us.

And when Toyomae stops to the front of the soldiers, he puts his hands on both knees and breathes.

Already for him in the old body, it seems that the full force disease has touched the body.

It took a little while for him to be able to speak properly.

"Why... why... oh, my God!

"Aoyama Hall! What happened to you?

"Your lair is approaching us!

Not only with the soldiers, but with the people of this island, that's roughly three hundred people in crap!

"Huh... what!?

An agitation ran to the soldiers of Goro's right guard.

That's right.

They are now attacking with roughly a hundred soldiers.

Even if three times as many soldiers, some of them villagers, say they are approaching, it will not be impossible to be surprised.

And Toyotomi told him, pointing to the mountain on the high ground behind him.

"The soldiers are already assembling in the middle of that high ground!

It is clear that if we do this properly, we will be defenseless in large numbers.

Why don't we retreat here and report to Goro Rightemon for instructions!?

Then they heard a loud whisper from the high ground at the end of the settlement.

At the same time, Toyomoto turned his face blue again,

"We have to hurry this up! Everyone's! Hike once!!

And, as he issued the decree, he rushed his own way out to the harbor.

Soldiers rushing the other way down the path that came with it.

"We can't make it with this! Wait here for me to persuade you!

Your lords will join Lord Toyota!

Toyomoto, who was so sadly determined, said, a soldier running side by side nodded and quickened his leg.

It was Toyotomi who stopped and dropped him off.

◇ ◇

"What!? Soldier 300!! Are you really saying that we're all back after such a stupid story!?

You bastard!!

It was Goro Toyota's right guard, who was waiting for him on the Kansai boat, who was so angry.

He was returning from the harbour to the ship because the extension of the settlement was more intense than he thought.

Isn't that when all the soldiers who marched back?

Moreover, the soldiers believed that it was not difficult to imagine that it was a lie.

He was half frightened, the other half dominated by anger.

"But Toyomae Aoyama said so..."

"So where is Toyotomi?!?

"When I persuade you to hide in Shinkansen..."

"You didn't think that Toyomae was working with your Hidden Lords!?

A soldier with a faint look at the point of Goro's right guard.

"Yes, no... it's..."

The soldier's tooth cut gets very bad.

Perhaps the soldiers trusted Toyotomi Aoyama.

That's why I didn't believe him.

Until I rebuffed my decree...

Goro's right guard is more intensely willing to kill against Toyotomi Toyotomi and Jiu-gu Kalong, whom he admires until he is in danger.

That may have been due in large part to my jealousy of Karon.

"Enough!! This I will take the lead myself!!

Again march!! Get him out of here now!

When he gave the order, he led as many as a hundred soldiers to a completely burned settlement.

Yoshiji, on the other hand, was coming down from the high ground with the villagers.

"That's Toyomae Shogun!! It was really brilliant!!

Best of all, Yoshiji praised them with a smile towards Toyotomi, who welcomed them in the field.

But Toyotomi shook his head sideways in awe.

"Hmm, that's how easy it is.

Moreover, the falsehood was in the draft of Lord Oya, so it is not an exaggeration to say that it is in the hands of Lord Oya. "

"Ha! Okay, let's just make it a matter of two handles!

Well... they'll be turning back soon. Perhaps there is also Lord Toyota.

Next is where we fight!

Toyotomi also hardens his expression so as to be in tune with Yoshiji, who tightened his mouth from a smile.

And as he turned to the back,

"Everyone's!

Prepare to intercept enemies!!

Start by arranging the branches of the tree in your hand into the field and cover the dry straw from above when you're done with it!

And then, as we met in advance, we gathered to the five soldiers, each dividing into four sides and dividing ourselves!

Yoshiji, who so loudly instructed.

The thirty or so villagers that were gathering,

"Whoa!!

Answering so mightily, he began to sprinkle the branches of trees over the dry fields, finishing the harvest quickly enough to hold each pine tree and cedar tree.

And when you finish it all the way through, you can cover the last dry straw from it.

At the end of the day, when the five soldiers were divided into small numbers, they rushed to the back and laid low.

………

……

Thus, some time later, an army led by Goemon Toyota came to Tian.

Goro's right guard is shivering, scolding the soldiers and hurrying ahead.

But a leading soldier found one man benevolent in holding back their whereabouts and stopped.

That figure, not even armored, is indefensible in itself, but for that there is no gap at all.

Besides, he's got a big knife he's never even seen, and if he accidentally jumps in, he's going to be slashed down with that knife he's got.

Plus I was amazed by the look.

He wears a white cloth softly from his head and only glances at his sharp, glowing eyes.

It was, nevertheless, rumored and reminiscent of that in the Otani prison.

And the man said in a loud and clear voice.

"I am Sukeyoji Otani University!!

By order of Hideyoshi Toyotomi Kunihisa, I came here to Anshijima to deliver a letter to the Nine Ghosts Kalong Hall.

But now that I have seen you on this island that harm the lives of the people, let go of that evil deed and wait!!

If you pull hard here, the sin will still be lightened!

But if you ignore my advice and turn your blade upon it, you will not forgive me!

Come on, choose!!

Do you want to side with the infidel Goro Toyota Rightomon and leave that stigma to future generations, or do you wish to commit that sin according to the life of this Otani college assistant?

Soldiers who can't hear that voice and hide their confusion.

I am part of a samurai with them.

I have enough good sense to figure out where the righteousness lies and to determine what I need to fulfill.

The morale dropped greatly, and no one tried to slay Yoshiji.

But Yoshiji's voice beat, and Goro Rightemon's cut of gold echoed from the rear.

"Yes! What are you getting lost in!

Hidden Hall and Yoshiji Otani were planning to attack Toba Castle here in Anshijima!!

It would be more obvious than to see fire, such as which one is an infidel!

Those who do not move here report suspicion of conspiracy against the Nine Ghosts Shogun Hall, is that OK?!?

To the words, the soldiers show confusion again.

Because for the end soldier, Toyota Goro Rigamen, the superior officer in front of him, and his master, Shouruo Kyugi, are more realistically fearful opponents than people like Hideyoshi Toyotomi and Jiayasu Tokugawa, who are far away in Osaka Castle, so to speak.

If you do poorly, they'll slap you off on this spot.

The soldiers, who felt in danger, turned their spears to the fearful Yoshiji.

Yoshiji, staring at it with a harsh eye, said with more tone.

"Is that your Lord's answer!!

Very well!! No more forgiveness!!

Then Goro's right guard voice comes, as he reacts to that voice.

"There's only one opponent! Even if he was nearby, he's just an oligarchy!!

Everyone's, the aim is to be the place of your hiding place ahead!!

Kick ass and move on all at once, fool!!

Though it was so ordered, the soldiers' movements were dull, and it was abundant to close the gap between twitching and Yoshiji.

And Yoshiji gave the decree with a voice that also reached heaven.

"Now!! Let it go all at once!!

Together with that decree, fire was thrown in simultaneously from the surroundings.

When the fire ignites the dry straw, it spreads at once, surrounding the soldiers.

"Hey, what!?

Suddenly, the feet of the soldiers, confused by the fire hands rising from the front to the back, stopped.

Then when the fire was transferred from the straw to the pines and cedars beneath it, the smoke rose from the trees, which left a little moisture, and completely blocked the sight of the soldiers.

And its smoke, which contained pine coal (soot), crushed the throats and eyes of the soldiers who were not careful, and all coughed up and rubbed their eyes, so that they were no longer in battle.

Stone crushes flew this time from all directions toward the soldiers who would blur to their hands with weapons in confusion.

This was gathered by the five soldiers who accompanied Yoshiji, and the villagers who came to them began to throw as soon as allowances were available.

"Say...!

The stone-throwing did not have much killing power, but was sufficient to plunge the soldiers into further chaos. It whilst still plunged the army into the kind of terror that surrounded it, and at this point several soldiers retreated.

"Here! Don't run away! Horseshoe..."

Goro's right guard raised his voice, but he was also in a state of forward and backward unconsciousness, and his voice was weak enough to be extinguished by the voices of the soldiers.

There,

"Daiya University Sukei!! Maru!!"

And I wondered if there had been a cry to keep the ground apart, and the soldier in front of him was slammed to the ground so that he could be blown away.

Yoshiji left his knife in his sheath and slammed the soldiers.

The shock was as if he had been beaten with a thick marutai.

By the soldiers who fell in, Yoshiji's path was opened, and he went straight to Goro's right gate.

And...

Coming to his sight, he eagled his neck from the front with his left hand, coughing.

"Guru..."

With a pitiful voice, Goro Rightmen stares at Yoshiji.

Yoshiji said to him with that face that glanced only at the sharp glance that made the beholder tremble.

"I'm not so warm in character as to be let go and look fine.

If they do, I'll do it back...

Remember that! That's what Yoshiji Otani is!

Yoshiji strengthens his throat-held hand.

Meanwhile, Goro Right-Men, whose throat was crushed and his voice was silent, nodded his eyes with fear, and the uncircumcised look of the air changed from red to blue.

And when Yoshiji roughly let go of his hand, Goro Rightmen, with his butt down,

"Whoa... whoa... okay! Forgive me for what I did wrong."

And he began to beg for a life like no other.

Yoshiji sends a chilling glance, keeping Jen royal on that pitiful look,

"Then swear! I plead guilty to that sin and report it all to my lord, Shoryu Kyugi!

And leave the soldiers immediately, and never stand in our way again!

And he yelled at Goro's right guard.

"Yes! I swear!"

and Goro right guard with his head down in tears.

But against that appearance, Yoshiji, who had sent a harsh gaze everywhere, tried to follow the scene without saying anything that he would revive...

But...

Goro Rightemon, who suddenly pulled out his lower back knife, slashed him against Yoshiji's back without even speaking.

With cloudy eyes and a creepy smile...

"Stupid..."

And Yoshiji, who shrugged and shrugged, just stepped aside, as he did last night, without even swinging back.

"What!!?

Goro Right-Men knife that cuts the sky beautifully.

I put my foot on it last night and rubbed it off Yoshiji, but it wasn't that sweet at this time.

When he held the bell-cut knife with both hands and pulled his right foot just one step backwards, he shafted his foot and began to spin around.

With that rotation, a bell-cutting knife makes the sound of cutting through the air called "let's".

As it was, he was sucked into the side head of Goro's right guard's helmet with tremendous momentum.

"Heavenly!!!

When Yoshiji's thunder rang, the bell-cutting knife was swung away.

Gong...

It's like a big hammer, a dull, heavy noise pounding the big tree vigorously around you.

Goro's right guard body, which received a bell-cutting knife so that it could be lifted from the diagonal bottom, blew to the side drawing a beautiful arc...

And when he fell in, he fainted and couldn't move.

Yoshiji, who saw him lying on his back and bubbling, against the soldiers around him,

"Admiral Goro Toyota Rightomon was defeated by this Otani University assistant!!

If you are wasting any more resistance, they will all burn to death!!

Take this infidel who is losing his mind beside me and walk away from here!!

and orders him to retreat with a thunderous voice.

Then the soldiers fled almost with their bodies, and several of them held Goro's right guard behind them.

Confirming that the soldiers were leaving, Yoshiji hurried toward the settlement, and when he stood unreachable to the fire, he declared a high victory.

"Everyone's!! The soldiers have retreated! Our victory!

To that voice, the more boiling villagers.

Though the fisherman's settlement was damaged, they were all surprised and impressed by Yoshiji Otani's boldness and military skill in getting rid of about a hundred enemy soldiers at the hands of just seven samurai and thirty or so unarmed villagers, including Yoshiji, without letting out the dead.

As the surroundings boil with cheer, five soldiers and Toyotomi Aoyama rush to Yoshiji.

And Toyotomi told Yoshiji by tightening his expression.

"The Great Valley Hall. It's time to go to your lair."

"Uhm. Then I'll ask you for guidance"

And finally, Yoshiji said to the villagers who were gathering continuously.

"That's because I came to this island, and then they burned my precious settlement.

Let's promise that this atonement will always be made.

But now I'm in a hurry.

Why don't you keep that promise till later?

In that inquiry, the villagers expressed their gratitude to each other, and there was not a single outrage at the fact that the settlement had been burned there.

Yoshiji bowed his head,

"It's this one who says thank you. Without your cooperation, there was no victory in this one.

Then it's time to go.

Be careful not to jump on the settlement.

Bye! "

And as a farewell greeting to the thanksgiving, he and the others left the place behind.

◇ ◇

There was also a small terminal opposite the port where Yoshiji Otani and the right-hand side of the river reached, and that was the designated rendezvous point for Karon Kyugi.

Yoshiji was overwhelmed by the sight he saw at the small dock.

"Hey... what is it? This!?

Karon stares at the surprise as she nibbles.

Right-hand people and Toyomae Shosho also have expressions that seem satisfied with Yoshiji's reaction.

It was there...

It was a gigantic ship about five (approximately 9.m) across, about seventeen and a half (approximately 32.0m) long, and about two (approximately 3.6m) tall.

It was a very painful appearance, with vivid wounds everywhere and only wreckage that would have been built on something on the ship.

But the figure is magnificent enough for a wounded lion to call himself the king of the ship, as though it were a fang.

Furthermore, it combines an overwhelming sense of intimidation that glares at the beholder with a strange attraction that is sucked in, and feels like it is likely to bring back seasickness just by looking at it.

This is art.

This is the soul.

This is the Nine Ghosts Gallon.

A voice complaining like that was beating Yoshiji's heart like a big drum with a dong.

"This is Haunted Inn Maru. What do you say? Surprised?

"Is there someone who isn't surprised to see this..."

"Ha ha! If I'd seen this guy just made it, I'd have been more surprised!

"No... it's still enough"

Karon made a call to Yoshiji, who couldn't be surprised that way.

"Come on, come on. I'll send Lord Otani to a safe place."

"What... what!?

Yoshiji was even more surprised by Kalong's invitation.

This ship moves...

A man whose chest doesn't tremble just because he thinks so, can't be called a man.

That's how Yoshiji seemed.

And Yoshiji slowly approaches the ship.

Just coming within Kalong's reach, Kalong grabbed Yoshiji's arm and pushed him into the boat at once.

"All right!! Then we're leaving port!! Bastards!! Get tense!!!

"Ooh!!!!

Slowly… the ghost Inn Maru moved out one by one.

For Jiugu Kalong and Haunted Inn Maru, the last voyage had now moved under the gentle breeze of Toba.
