Celebrating 11 Years (1606) February-
As soon as two years passed from the Toyota Festival, which showed great excitement, I, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, turned thirteen.
It will be six years since I came to this world.
But my goal in this world, "Enjoy the Warring States", has not been achieved at all.
Because even within Osaka Castle I encourage the training of swords and academics, it was in fact the current situation that I was still not even allowed to go outside Osaka Castle.
About that workout, I didn't like it at first and couldn't help it, but it's strange because if I still keep doing it every day, I'll get used to it.
Without even thinking about it this day, in the courtyard of the morning, where the cold still lingered, he single-handedly speculated in the bare swing of his sword.
In historical fact, I didn't know what kind of exercise Lord Toyotomi Hideyoshi had been given, but now I, Hideyoshi Toyotomi, was a tight, muscular body with daily strenuous workouts and intermittent food control, without any extra luxury.
"All right, let's get this far."
and when you finish the bare gesture in a well-cut place by yourself, carefully wipe your lit body by hand.
And when I got my clothes done, I tightened my expression.
Finally, it is customary to slap your cheeks with one and one hand until you get into the mood of the day.
But here recently, another habit has been added.
It's...
"Ha! Dear Hideyoshi! I brought you some water!
That's to see the innocent smile of a thousand princesses.
"Thanks every morning! Isn't it a little early in the morning?
As usual, I take the water and sip it before giving her a kind voice.
"No, a thousand are happy to be able to happen with Hideyoshi!
See how she hangs on,
"Thanks!"
And until I gently stroked her head, it was a recent habit here.
Cutting only here, no one would think, as the happy and serene day continues.
But the gear of history certainly kept moving towards "that day".
Toyotomi-sponsored Toyoku Festival ended in a grand celebration, which gave rise to a sense of crisis, Tokugawa Shogunate, during that year, housed their families in the Otomo Mansion made in Edo against all the Otomo who had pledged allegiance to Tokugawa since the Battle of Sekigahara. It is a good hostage to say the least.
He would have watched the boat sail from Osaka to Kyo and suppressed the shipbuilding technique. Tokugawa Shogun took more than five hundred large ships from each great name, as well as forbid their construction.
And...
To make that power stronger, Tokugawa Jiayang gave it to Hideyoshi Tokugawa when he resigned as a general.
In other words, behind our tentative initial happiness, the Toyotomi are gradually being pushed into adversity.
But what was hurrying me the most was the fact that they were all going according to historical facts.
Whether Rushui Kuroda fought the battle of Kyushu, which put his life on the line, his gear will accelerate its rotation, with different dimensions.
When this happens, there's one way to go...
It is the final showdown between the Toyotomi and Tokugawa families, Osaka formation...
The defeat of the showdown led to the demise of the Toyotomi family and the burning of Osaka Castle.
And that great mission entrusted to me is to protect the smiles of everyone in this Osaka Castle and enrich their lives.
i.e.…
Winning the Osaka Formation.
Today is the first step.
Time to warm the big wings on this back is over.
At last, Hideyoshi Toyotomi must be the first day to crawl out of adversity.
With such strong determination, I walked to the archdeacon of the sword after finishing my morning.
………
……
- You are free to go outside Osaka Castle from the day you win the sword battle in a soft way!
This is what I was told on my first day when I was to be given a rigorous archery by my master, Princess Kofi.
And today was the day I meant to be.
That is... I challenged Princess Kofi and the sword to battle.
"Well... you don't see much today, do you?"
Dressed in white road clothes, Princess Kofi raises her voice with pride.
Long stretched hair is bound on top, with a beautiful face that is as lustrous as ever, but whose eyes still shine sharply as a carnivore aimed at prey.
When I was just beginning to arch, this gaze was the only thing that atrophied me.
But not now.
I stare at Princess Kofi like I bounce back the guillotine and its gaze.
In the spring, the limp dojo still ahead, me and Princess Kofi's fighting spirit, had raised its temperature in a clear way.
Of course, the boys who were my best friends and archdeacons of the same age as Shisei Kimura, Gideo Ono, and Naku Horiuchi, as well as my mother, Takimura, Chihime, and even Akashi Regina and Yukimura Maida, showed up in this presence.
"It's as if the woes have come to see Hideyoshi lose.
But is it going to be that easy?
It's Hideyoshi who will be punished and shamed later. "
Princess Kofi smiles sparingly.
I only gave it back without breaking my serious look.
"Even if we lose, we won't regret it.
But I've asked you to show me your strong readiness to win today's battle. "
"Well... now you're telling me.
So let's get started. "
"Yes..."
And I put a wooden knife in the front. And quietly proceeded to walk in front of Princess Kofi in time.
Look at that. Princess Kofi sets the wooden knife on the upper stage.
Soon my back length was above Princess Kofi's.
Still, her structure felt as if she was about to swallow me, and I felt a strong sense of intimidation in my heart.
A stiff glance continued.
If the moment one toe comes forward, Princess Kofi's intense sword will capture my brain.
I move the tip of my sword fine and restrain Princess Kofi from leaving.
"Yikes!!!
and a temperamental voice from Princess Kofi trembles the auditorium.
"Yikes!!
And I raised my voice like a loser.
I can't step inside both of them, some time went on.
The people who took part in the meeting in the meantime, without even raising their voices, are sipping and watching over us.
… and it was the next moment.
I can't stand this tension anymore because...
It was a thousand princesses!
"Hideyoshi. Ah! Good luck!!
When her voice came in silence, they all turned a sharp gaze toward the bearer of the voice.
- You can't if you speak up!!
Everyone pays attention to Chihime with a voiceless voice, but the person in question has a serious look, swelling his nose, blushing his face, and sending a hot gaze to hold back about me.
When I glimpse that gaze, my smile leaks unexpectedly.
But Princess Kofi didn't miss the gap.
"Yikes!!
I wondered if a thunderous voice sounded, while the sword waved down at the speed of the electric shock.
But...
What distracted me about Chihime was her invitation.
"Yikes!!
I can't beat Princess Kofi. When I can voice my temper, I take her sword.
- Kang!!
and the moment there was a dry sound of wooden knives bumping into each other, I stepped in and slipped the sword back into her torso.
Her expression surprised her for a moment when her attack was stopped, but soon turned into her original spare face.
I remember something disgusting about that look, but I tried to shake my arm through her torso without changing that sword muscle.
But the next moment...
- Don't!
And, Princess Kofi forcefully restored the momentum of the once-killed forward, hitting me with every body.
When my flash can be stopped completely, the distance between Princess Kofi and my face approaches exactly on the verge of sticking together.
And she laughed and talked to me.
"Pretty good at pretending to be distracted."
Strengthen me too and loosen my mouth.
"Lord Kofi, I can't believe you're not letting me hit you all over my body..."
"You'll tell me. I can tell you who trained your torso many times."
"Ha ha... that was it. All my swords were made by Lord Kofi."
"That's the thing!!
ood kah!!
And, Princess Kofi tried to poke me, and when I got the distance, I shook my sword up high again.
I take basic precepts.
And...
I'm ready.
It's about taking a step courageously to win a battle with her.
And to thank the Toyotomi from their path to annihilation.
No matter how much I know about the future, I have learned from so many previous experiences that history cannot be changed so easily.
That's why I've been warming these back wings in Osaka Castle for the past few years.
That's to learn the underlying 'mould'.
It's not just the sword.
Practice, books, politics, economics, diplomacy, military law, relationships...
I have thoroughly slapped all the 'basic shapes' that trace this world of war into my body and head.
And I'll spread my wings from this day on.
To bring a glimmer of light to Osaka Castle covered in a thick cloud of adversity.
In order to do this, it must not be caught in the 'type'.
I am so sure.
Namely, I...
Break the Shape.
I...
From the basic structure…
When I held the sword only with my left hand, I slipped it down.
That's not in the "mould" taught...
"Hey!!!
The voice of Princess Kofi's temper. Once again, a special strike strikes down on me.
The 'mould' of dealing with the opponent's jumping in and out of practice over and over again.
It is taken with a sword, then it is pulled out of the torso or hit the face as it is pulled.
But I do.
Then you can never beat Princess Kofi, the "embodiment of history"...
She's trying...
Is it just a vessel where I can confront a monster with a history of Tokugawa Jiayang on my side...
A vessel that can only be 'shaped' to beat an opponent who never stays in the 'shapes'...
- Otherwise, I'll protect you.
She will continue to stand on my arrow with such a grievous determination.
It became my sword.
In other words, it's a deep love for me, no, for the rich.
Now she turns that love into a blow all over her body, and it hits me.
It is the so-called 'mould' that receives this with its own sword.
But...
I don't move my sword.
And against her sharp steps, she took a step to the left.
Her swing cuts the sky.
But as much as a blow is going to be thrown, it's in her hands.
Because, as with "receiving" the other sword, "scratching" is, so to speak, a fundamental "mould".
She puts my torso in reverse with a knife that returns as it is.
But...
I wouldn't let that happen.
I have little distance from her.
That moment she tried to pay the reverse torso while pulling...
"Hey!!!
And I flew my hand knife to her axial right wrist with my empty right hand with temper.
- Pan!!
Her expression turned to amazement when she wondered if the high noise had sounded.
Her sword stops its movement perfectly, as if the clock needle had stopped.
I would have already swung up my left hand by then… i.e. swing the sword down as it is.
Her gala's empty. For that forehead.
The silence surrounds the area.
My sword stops near Princess Kofi's forehead.
Staring at it, she asked me in a small voice.
"I didn't expect to take it off the basics of 'receiving' and 'scratching' and stop the soft sword with 'hitting'...
When did you learn that?
"I thought it through myself and have worked out many times. In the morning bareback I was told by Lord Kofi."
"Have you polished the mould and worn a mould that breaks it... brilliant"
At that moment...
- Wow!!!
And Zeng, Ji De, Shuku, and Chihime cheer up and rush to me.
"Excellence. Well!! Awesome!!
And if a thousand princesses hug me,
"Dear Hideyoshi!! Excellent work!
And, the supernatant bows his head.
And
"Dear Hideyoshi!! I trusted you to do it!!
And Ji De laughed with his belly,
"Master Hideyoshi, that's amazing!
And, Su-ku was impressed.
And...
I spread my wings wide open.
You have to break the mould. You can't change this gear of history.
I'm gonna change you! With this hand!
With a strong determination in his chest, he drew the sword that had stopped him near Princess Kofi's forehead.
"Lord Kofi... No, Master. Thank you."
When I lowered my head, Princess Kofi thanked me small and immediately raised her head.
"Don't get me wrong. I'm still working out.
But promises are promises.
From today onwards, you are free to enter and leave Osaka Castle!
However, be sure to act with the offering and come back before sunset.
So, you sure you don't mind?
Temple? "
The stare of my mother, staring at me with a calm expression beside me, nodded with a dull nod.
I once again thanked my mother for that.
And I said it out loud to everyone.
"Keep it up!!
The air is still in the cold season.
Still, the warm spring day visit is just around the corner.
I was layering the stumps of flowers that had coloured the trees and the future of Osaka Castle.
... and then...
Regina, who was watching without excitement, approached me once.
She said blushing with no expression while I frowned.
"... Dear Hideyoshi... lovely"
"What?"
Next moment…
- Chuh...
And when I wondered if she felt soft on my cheek, Regina gave me a mouthful.
Consolidating circumference…
Gently away Regina told, laughing at Nicoli.
"You can't beat love without breaking the mould"
Leaving behind, he grabbed the auditorium...
My face is stained bright red regardless of my consciousness.
I finally realized the presence of only one person shuddering as if they were all taken away from me and I couldn't move.
... but...
It was too late then...
"Hey, what are you happily blushed like that...?
"Stay!! O Thousand!! All this time I'm not bad!!
"No!! With the mighty blow of Lord Kofi, how come Regina's mouth is not turned off!!!
"No! That's...!! You said you got a pretence!!
"No questions asked!!! Hideyoshi..."
My excuses for misery are no longer in working order.
As the air contracts into the right fist of a thousand princesses, it turns into iron-like hardness.
And...
"Hideyoshi, what a pain!!!
"Wow!!!
My left cheek, which touched my soft lips earlier, with my scream, was now fisted by a thousand princesses as hard as iron...
