It will be necessary to know how the Long Sect Mori changed his name to Yukimoto Oishi to tie the history of his involvement in the popularization and operation of the school together under Souyoshi Ishida. Let's go back to the story and see it.
It was about 7 years ago.
In the spring of the land of Tosa, around the Hachimangu Palace of the Youth Palace, it was crawling with children's shaky voices.
This was the annual "Kanda Festival," a day where all of us prayed for disease-free breathing for both old and young people, muddy faces.
But for the kids, it's simply "the day they're approved to hit each other with mud".
They laughed more often than usual, cried more often, and made a lot of noise.
It's in there, and the voices of two boys in particular sound well.
- Oh, no! I'm in Sun Jiro! How dare you put mud on my face!
- Ha ha! Chikuma Maru! If you regret it, hit me too!
It was a brotherly fight, in other words everywhere, in which a losing brother protested to his brother crying and his brother was smiling and fanning about it.
Usually adults would break it and go into arbitration, but now, even that seemed to be just a pastime to say festive hua, and the people dancing in mud were blind to them.
But it was humiliating for Thousand Bear Maru, who was crying, to be hit with a ball of mud in the face no matter how festive, and he was willing to hit remorse in childhood.
But his temper was vain, and from this time on in the future he was the back length of a thousand bear circles with one scale that would make him a big man, but his two distant brothers Sun Jiro could not have his back length or his arm, and all the thousand bear circles would be covered in mud.
But still, from time to time, Sun Jiro also bumped into a ball of mud thrown by Chikuma Maru, and his wax is no longer a brown colour.
But Thousand Bears Maru realized that most of them Sun Jiro was "deliberately" bumping into him to get his brother up, and it was just something that unnecessarily inflated his dissatisfaction.
- Wow! Fool in Sun Jiro!
Finally, a thousand bear pills crying out.
- Totally. Your lord is a crybaby...
and Sun Jiro, who smiles with a dirty face on the mud and is gentle with the head of Thousand Bears Maru.
Thousand Bear Maru shook that hand away reluctantly, but genuinely such a brother's kindness seemed to make him unnecessarily miserable, making his cry louder.
I can speak to such brothers from afar.
- Oh! Are you doing this!?
- Father!
Sun Jiro waves at his father when he realizes that the bearer of that voice is their father.
The people, who were dancers, smiled and stopped their hands, greeted their father with a respectful eye, and knelt.
- Good, good! Everybody, go on! Sing! Dance!
The people who cheered for such an ordinance dance with more pleasure than earlier.
- Chikuma Maru! Can't you cry on a festival day? When you're young, you laugh a lot, cry a lot, learn a lot! haha! Then my father will dance!
At this time, of the young brothers, his brother Sun Jiro's name will be later loyal, and his younger brother Qian Kumaru will later become a protégé. And their father, at this time, was a long-serving former father who had not taken a step back to Nobunaga Oda, the powerful man of time, and was pushing forward to the ambition of Shikoku domination.
The son of a long-serving former father had four boys at this time.
However, the first-born son and heir Shin-parent, the second son's affinity, was separated from Sun Jiro's and Qian Kuma Maru's brothers, and since he had already served his father, Sun Jiro was still looking after his youngest son at the time.
And Sun Jiro often took care of Thousand Bears Maru.
We played together at all times, sometimes quarreling, and both Thousand Bear Maru and Sun Jiro were growing up just as muddy as catching up with their father, a fine Tosa hero.
However, I was still too young for my brother to know at this time, such as how he felt.
Even after my father joined me in the dance, Thousand Bears Maru keeps crying with a ball of mud in one hand and a messed up face with tears and mud.
Still, in the world of war, only the spring of Tosa on this day continued to mark the time when both the people and the samurai would dance in their hearts.
This is only a few days later.
- It's a crybaby's thousand bear circles. Don't cry. It's my brother's sunny departure. Laugh and drop me off.
Sun Jiro, who pointed the gentle smile of the usual way at Thousand Bears Maru, turned his head and left Tosa.
He was sent for adoption to Tsuno, the family of Nanao of Tosa.
Thousand Bear Maru, who hates his brother, but can't contain the complicated emotion that leaving is unpleasant, remained crying all the time until he was tired of crying and sleeping that day.
………
……
Then about twenty years of the month passed.
In the meantime, your long-serving home follows a turbulent fate. At that milestone, Mori wept.
When his father's former father, unable to withstand the invasion of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and surrendered to him, the bloody upper-brother boy cried too much of remorse.
When his oldest brother and heirloom parent of the Long Sect family lost his life in battle at a young age, the seniors cried to the woeful appearance of his pitiful father.
And when the minister split into two and had a bloody od-smelling result, whether to make the next heirloom Sun Jiro Aoi Tsuno Kinshi or Chikuma Maru Aoi a long-serving patron, I couldn't contain my tears in the pity of your house.
One tear at a time was the food for the growth of the uppermost parents, and with the great body, the mind was also greater and stronger.
And celebrate the spring of five years of celebration.
That day, he was taking sumos with the children under the castle, muddy in the paddy fields before planting.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Keep calling me!
"Hey!"
The children jump on the bosoms of one parent youth after another, but he throws them one after the other without fear.
Some of them came out crying too much of remorse and pity.
But the thriving parents, seeing a child like that,
"Good, good! When you're young, you laugh a lot, cry a lot, learn a lot! haha!
And he was rambling their heads and laughing them off.
It is such a fold, it was reported that the request of the mortal parents, no, that would put the fate of the long-serving family in tragedy...
"My lord, it is important. It is said that Lord Jibe Ishida will rise from Osaka Castle if he does not destroy the Tokugawachi Prefecture."
I have come to deliver that news from my father's former father's close proximity, Naoto Kubu. He was a man of delusional and excessive loyalty to his grandparents.
"Hmm. I already know in a letter from my brother that that would happen.
Well, maybe it's time for us to do some battle support. "
At this time, Morioshi had received a letter from his brother's loyalty, who lived away, predicting the battle of Sekigahara, in which he wrote, "Be on the side of Tokugawa".
Mori also intended to side with Tokugawa Jiayang following his brother's advice.
However, Kubu asked Naoto in haste whether he had accounted for the intention of his parents or his parents to break up with the children and try to return to the castle.
"My lord! My lord is not going to take your side in Lord Tokugawa, as your loyal lord said!?
"Hmm, you're right. Already in the east, my brother will be ready to join the army of Lord Fujido Takati..."
Parents protest by blushing.
"My lord, wake up!
As Loyalty said, what do you think would happen if you stepped out and were fought under the command of Fujido!?
"Whatever happens, this happens..."
"Okay! The" righteousness "of this battle is found in Lord Jibe Ishida! Therefore, it is up to Ishida to win the battle!
"Hmm, if it does mean 'righteousness', there may be an armament going up against Lord Jibe Ishida.
But in terms of winning or losing a battle, it would be different.
My brother also tells Lord Tokugawa that this battle has a 'profit'. I think it's for your home that you're on the winner's side... "
Kubu's cousin Naoto backed up to the word.
Whatever it was, it was because he was annoyed by his predominant parents who listened to his estranged brother and did not try to listen well to his own progression nearby, and at the same time burned a flame of jealousy once again to a man named Kinshi Tsuno.
"My lord! Have you forgotten your position!?
My lord hasn't been awarded a position yet!
In other words, you are officially the owner of a long-serving house and an unrecognized person under heaven!!
If it moves at the behest of my brother's loyalty as it is, which one deserves the Lord will be illuminated under the day of heaven!!
"Mmm... but only on my brother..."
Parents look at each other.
But regardless of such grandparents, Kubu continues to talk about the legitimacy of his own prophecy in an increasingly feverish tone.
"Besides, if Lord Ishida wins every battle, he will officially give me the official position of Tosa Shou, and that is what attaches the promise. Check this out!
And, Kubu and Naoto spread one book as he stood, in front of his mortal parents. It was written about the treatment if his parents negotiated with Sansei Ishida on an arbitrary basis.
In other words, at this time, it was almost an open fact that Nagazo was already on Ishida's side.
"Mmmm..."
The parents were still troubled.
Even with him, the official position of "Tosa Shosho" was definitely something I wanted enough to get my hands out of my throat.
Because when you have it, for the first time, you must not seem to be a sign that you are the Lord of the Long Sect. Winning this battle would guarantee it… it was enough to shake the hearts and minds of the uppermost parents greatly.
But at the same time, it seemed to mean defying my brother's opinion, which still made my grandparents hesitate.
There, Kubu's parents raised their voices just to make the last push.
"My lord! If your lord is also a man, grab it with your own hands!!
Even if "Lee" were to be Lord Tokugawa, let's say for the first time that the Lord would turn it upside down and Lord Ishida would win, that much could be accomplished and be the true Lord!
You can't quit spoiling just because you've already been given to your brother or your late father!!
Besides, it will do everything in its power to support you!
Win a true Long Sect Lord's Seat with the Lord and His Majesty!!
At last, the mortal parents had to shake their heads vertically to the direct advice of Kubu, who could also be described as the life-saving.
When the parents nodded satisfied with the condition, they were relieved or reddened around their eyes.
Yes, he was really risking his life trying to make his grandparents the head of his long-serving family. The reason he was so obsessed would be that he himself would have something to blame. One thing I can say, however, is that he was only a man worthy of his service by his uppermost parents, who sincerely hoped that the… end of his long ministry would be the Lord of heaven.
Now he has chosen no means for this, seeing it as an obstacle, and has taken the lives of many long-serving ministers. Because of this, even his wife was killed by suspicion when he brought the life he had taken to Tosa even to the ghost and rumours of "Eight Misakis" and "Seven Misakis".
Nevertheless, he continued to push forward, not to cower, but merely to bring his uppermost parents to the apex.
That no longer seems like anything more than an absolute admiration, which can be represented by words such as paranoia and heart sickness.
And last year, with the death of his former lord, the former father of the Long Sect, the day has finally arrived when he will become the castle owner of Urado Castle, where his prime parents are based. Parentally, it would have been a moment of senselessness.
But it is about the arrow tip.
The clash between Tokugawa and Ishida in the center took place...
As a close relative, Kubu, there was no reason to stumble around here.
He is not the darker he is originally. Hundreds were aware that this battle was already in Tokugawa's favor. Nonetheless, Kubuchi believed that Tsuno's elder brother, who is arguing for the throne of the Lord, was connected to Fujido Takati on the Tokugawa side, and that only through his loyalty's good offices should Mori side with Tokugawa side be avoided at all costs.
"I won't let Mori-kun touch one finger any more..."
Such a straightforward mind of parents, imbued with a desire for exclusivity, was no longer obsessed with transcending the logic of the times and only with things proceeding according to the convenience of their own thoughts.
Thus, in order to side with Sansei Ishida, Nagazo led about six thousand soldiers out of Urado Castle, the castle where they lived.
I didn't even know that was the beginning of the tragedy...
No, the apoptosis of the Long Sect family already may not have begun with this choice. At a time when the Shin-parents of the eldest son, whose vessel did not fit in Tosa ichi, did not stop loving him, it should not seem that the great currents of destiny are leading him to sunset with natural dishes, just as the water flows to the lower.
………
……
When he heard that Mori had led soldiers into Osaka Castle, Mitsune was very pleased and welcomed him to the gate himself. He had never been greeted with such a smile by an unfamiliar person for his predominant parents who had never left the land of Tosa, and he had learned to tickle his heart.
Then the great army of Sansei, which added the soldiers of the uppermost parents, starts marching under the great nickname "For Hideyoshi's sake".
It was Ishida's army, which attacked Fushimi Castle and others and, from the point of view of Ha, successfully hunted down Tokugawa's army, but set foot in Sekigahara so that it could be drawn to the pitfalls to ruin.
Mori's army was standing at the foot of Nangong Mountain, like the one behind Jiayou's main unit, but Yukio Asano and others glanced at it, and the more dangerous trends of Maori Souyuan and Hiroshi Yoshikawa remained the reins of the Long Sect Army, which could only stare at the back of Jiayou's army with their fingers crossed.
And what follows will not have to be noted here.
At the end of Sansei's assault, together with Ishida's army, which began its defeat, Morita's parents were forced to return to Tosa as the general of the defeated army without being able to fight in the main battle, and all they had to do was wait for a shakedown from Tokugawa Jiayang.
………
……
5 Years of Celebration (1600) September 20 -
The first voices heard by Jiayang in this award were abundant in the mountains.
Because he was the first man to declare to the Tokugawa army marching west that he would give his residence to Jiayou, that is, the earliest man to pledge allegiance to Tokugawa other than the warlord in the Tokugawa Spectrum bill.
So from the mouth of Jia Kang,
"Yamanuchi vs. Horseshoe is increased to about 100,000 stones. The country shall be Tosa.
But all of a sudden it will be difficult to enter the exotic country and rule the people and soldiers.
So let's get this Tokugawanai Prefecture ready so that by next year the Lord can enter Urado Castle in a pleasant way. "
Sha 'fa was announced in front of the warlords.
In addition to the increase, it was a good idea to sell further gratitude to Tokugawa, and it was the best pastime to announce it on purpose in front of a large number of famous people, demonstrating that they would be given such gratitude if they worked with loyalty from early on to Jiayang.
But one man who heard this, when he changed his blood phase and quit the scene, immediately left Osaka behind.
"This is against the righteousness of my friendship. We have to do something..."
The big man, with a crushed back length of 6 '2 "(190cm), rushed from the harbor to a certain mansion in Tosa when he ran the boat.
The man's name is Takati Fujido...
Later it was no exaggeration to say "the most beloved foreign name" from Tokugawa Jiayang, but now all I can think about is friendship with a certain man, rather than loyalty to that Jiayang. Fujido Takati and I are so much friendship and affection.
However, this sober sweat of friendship will be brushed miserably by the blood-scented mud that stains Tosa's history...
It was not yet known to the high tiger at this time...
