- Sun Fu Castle is surrounded...!

Jiayang's thoughts have stopped altogether in exactly the kind of repercussions that have been pounded into hell from heaven.

Honda Masayoshi in front of me is screaming something at him hard, but it didn't reach his ear at all.

And even my eyesight is getting blurred.

And it was the next moment.

- Dgowong!

When I wondered if there was a blunt sound, the intense pain, as if the electric shock had run, struck Jia Kang's cheek.

"Ouch!!

He screamed unexpectedly.

Then the appearance of honesty, which swung through his right fist, was clearly reflected in his eyes.

"Oh, Lord! You beat me up!? My lord!!

"Not if you are saying such a small thing!! What do you say? Are you ready to go?

It was Jiayang who finally woke up due to the Iron Fist of Honesty, but the thought did not return to normal.

I only heard that Sunfu Castle is surrounded, but I haven't even ascertained which house it belongs to.

Haven't you touched Princess Turtle's reverse scale again and the Okhei family flag is just flying around......

Jiayang looked optimistic that way and tried to calm herself down.

But honesty's "Iron Fist of the Word" did not condone it.

"Wuqi's Kiryu...... I mean, Sunfu Castle is surrounded by Toyotomi troops!!

It distorts in front of me again. But if you forget me here, the Iron Fist of Honesty could fly again.

He asked, biting his lips all the time.

"Then how did you advance your troops to Sun Fu!?

"It's a ship!! When I wondered if there were countless ships out of Ryukyu, they all went straight to Sunfu."

"Oh my God... but why 'today'!?" Yesterday "but not" Tomorrow "but" Today "!?

It would also be natural for Jiayang to wonder.

If it had been 'yesterday' when a large number of ships had attacked Surugawa Bay sprawling in front of Surugu Castle, he would have been able to turn back and intercept the great army.

And if it's "tomorrow," I can march Yuyu after falling Osaka Castle.

But it's "today". I didn't know this war was going to be surrounded by exactly the 'today' that is taking place......

No, to be precise, it was only a few days ago that the castle was surrounded, and 'today' news was delivered, as if it had been weighed.

"Yes... I can only assume you're predicting the 'future'..."

The moment I thought about it that way......

All the discomforts in Jiayang were solved.

"No way... he was' The One Who Knows the Future '..."

Think of it that way and it all goes together.

Why did Rushui Kuroda and others head to Osaka Castle in the battle of Sekigahara?

Why did you let Sansei Ishida help you?

Why did you leave the school in Kyo and gather the neighbors?

And the position he's in now......

"Is it possible that such absurdity..."

It was also during the bundle that Zhengxin grabbed both shoulders of Jiayang disappointingly and spurned him.

"My lord!! Not if you are distracted by anything else now!! If Sunfu Castle falls, what happens next! Even the present lord will see!!

Sunfu Castle fell ahead......

"Edo..."

Honesty nods loudly at Jiayang's twinkle.

If 50,000 large armies attacked Edo in the absence of a general, as the word of honesty says, a great deal would happen. I could have had a good enough hunch about that, even Jia Kang, whose head was still more than half white.

And he leaned all the reason he had just recovered to one point.

"We're going back to Sun Fu!

So...

The complexion of honesty gets tighter.

It was also a mirror that reflected Jiayang's face.

But......

"How do we get back...?

Honesty asked Jiayang, frowning.

So once again looking forward, Ishida Squad and straight Squad are still clashing hard.

When he finally realized Soo-yong's thoughts, Jia Kang clenched his teeth.

"All the while...... you have a hunch about this and you are deliberately stopped!

It was to block Jia Kang's way to Sun Fu.

If Nara Avenue is not blocked, you can exit Tokaido, which has been maintained from Kyo, once it leaves the north.

But now the road to the north is blocked.

When this happens, we just have to go east.

Honesty also knew it, urging him to make a decision.

"My lord! The only way to get there is to keep going down the street and get out of Yamato to Ise."

"But then we have to go around a lot! We can't afford that!

"Then there is only one way!!

Honesty cut the word there.

'Cause it was a joke to say the end of the word.

And Jiayang also knew exactly what Honesty wanted to advance without saying it.

Because once they have had the experience of going that way......

It's "Iga Vietnam."

Through the steep mountains to go straight east from Osaka, we penetrate Iga.

And after going out to the north of Ise Country, we will cross by boat to Sun Fu...

That was the only way left to make a choice.

- Gokuri......

Just thirty years ago now. When Nobunaga Oda was killed because of the weird nature of the main temple, it was the path he had taken to escape his enemies and return to the Three Rivers.

In a series of too many ordeals, Jiayang's memories to his mind over and over again that he "had better die about it" are still vividly remembered.

But I no longer had time to get lost.

When he squeezed his mouth tight all the way, he nodded one big time.

"Well, let's get started."

That's what Honesty left behind.

Speaking of things different from that time, it means that there were only about thirty offerings around him, now surrounded by thousands of soldiers.

In other words, let us say that there is no fear of life being threatened by enemy attacks.

But on the other hand, Jia Kang's own body is much weaker than it was 30 years ago.

Can you fulfill and get through that rugged path to yourself right now......

"No, we have to get through this! To protect Sunfu and Edo!

When he consolidated his resolve so much, Honesty came back into the main force.

"My lord! I am ready! We've got a horse! Come on!"

"Uhm."

Jia Kang tried to leave the main unit behind when he replied briefly.

In doing so, he glanced at Osaka Castle, which stood in the distance.

- If I leave here, will Osaka Castle and Toyotomi stay...

It was' remorse 'that had sprung up mundane when I was finally calm.

But when he spanned the horses, he said with a tight face.

"Okay! Let's go, then!

This is how the "second Iga Vietnam" began for Jia Kang...
