With forty-eight imperial tools, I just want to rely on myself

"At Shimo Takasugi Shinsaku, Toyoichi was born crazy."

Takasugi Shinsaku's pair of eagle eyes stared at Ling Ze and looked up and down. His eyes were full of appreciation. They were almost the same as Katsura Kogoro's attitude before, except that his emotional expression was more exposed.

"Dongyang Yi was born crazy? What is this? Is it the name of the Tao?"

Ling Ze was shocked by the "Second-Second Breath" coming from Shinsaku Takasugi. This guy's aura was a little too exaggerated, as if he was telling others all the time that Shinsaku Takasugi was the trendy player of this era.

It may be due to his natural temperament, or it may be because he had tuberculosis. He knew that there was not much time to release his nature so unscrupulously.

"Ruroker Zatou market."

Ling Ze nodded and responded to the opponent. The appearance of Shinsaku Takasugi should have reduced some trouble for him. After all, this guy has the greatest right to speak in the Raiders, as can be seen from the reactions of the few Raiders soldiers.

Seeing this handsome look in front of him, like a professional actor, a blind boy with the style of a Rurouni warrior, Takasugi Shinsaku became more and more delighted, and he wanted to invite Ling Ze to join his surprise team.

Shinsaku Takasugi didn’t care about Lingze’s status as a wanted criminal. After all, their Changshu domain had a very poor relationship with the shogunate. As the saying goes, the enemy’s enemy is a friend. Lingze wanted a shogunate to their Changshu domain. , But will be the most natural helper.

"I don't know if Mr. Zatou has any plans to become an official. With your talents, you will be reused immediately after joining our Raiders. We are now resisting the invasion of "foreign barbarians", and we urgently need to supplement fighters like Mr. Zatou. "

Takasugi Shinsaku's attitude is very sincere. He still hasn't understood the reality clearly. He doesn't have enough knowledge of the power gap between Changzhou Clan and the so-called "foreign barbarian".

Therefore, he is still looking for talents to grow the Raiders so as to increase the vigorous force to fight against the "foreign barbarians". He feels that relying on the military strength of the Changzhou Clan can already fight those arrogant "foreign barbarians".

This kind of thinking will not be directly destroyed by the four-nation combined fleet of Britain, France, the Netherlands, and the United States not long after.

The "First Shogunate War" will completely awaken these lofty members of the Changshu clan. They will understand like the neighbors of the Satsuma clan that it is unrealistic to "cry barbarians" and their only way out is to "fall the curtain". "In power.

"I don’t have any interest. When I was in Kyoto, you, Kogoro Katsura from the Changshu domain, invited me. I’m an escape from the world. I’m here to meet the master of Kenshin Himura. Don't care or care."

Ling Ze's words surprised Gao Shan Jinsaku, because he didn't understand why the blind swordsman who looked at the young man in front of him had become an escape from the world.

After all, according to the truth, shouldn't a person as old as the blind boy in front of him be the age when he should dream of saving this country?

"Do you know Gui and Jianxin?"

And what surprised Takasugi Shinsaku most was the fact that this blind boy actually knew Kogoro Katsura and Kenshin Himura.

Katsura Kogoro is his confidant, and Himura Kenshin was borrowed by Katsura Kogoro from his surprise team, and both of them are inextricably related to him.

"It's not very familiar. It's just that I have been in their residence for a while. My genre and the genre of Kenshin Himura are somewhat intertwined, so I found him.

After defeating him, I am now preparing to challenge his master. I hope you will not stop me. I have no intention of being an enemy of you, nor will I cause you trouble."

Ling Ze held the stick in his hand against the front eaves of the hat, showing his face clearly, allowing Shinsaku Takasugi to see his serious expression. Although the two sides could not communicate with each other, the "face-to-face" at least made the other person feel Your firm attitude.

"Okay, no problem. It's your wish to join or not. I just don't want to miss a talent like you. I don't know if you have any plans for the future after challenging Master Jianxin?"

Shinsaku Takasugi, like Kogoro Katsura, immediately gave up the plan of entanglement after discovering that Ling Ze had refused decisively, but Shinsaku Takasugi still felt a little pity.

He wanted to leave a good relationship with Ling Ze as much as possible. Gao Shan Jinsaku felt that although Ling Ze's current attitude was firm, he might still change his mind in the future.

"This is my own personal business. If you have nothing else, then please forgive me for not being with me anymore and goodbye."

Ling Ze didn't intend to chat with Takasugi Jinzuo too much. The things involved in this man were troublesome, especially in the next period of time.

Both he and the Raiders participated in the "First Shogunate War" and the "Shimonoseki War", and the losers of these two wars were the Changzhou Clan. The Raiders who fought bravely in these two wars can be said It was a heavy loss.

Even if you really want to find an organization or faction to join, joining the Raiders now is obviously not a good choice.

After these two wars, the full implementation of French military training and the replacement of French-style equipment on the Raiders will truly start their invincible journey in Japan.

But that has nothing to do with Ling Ze. He doesn't intend to mix up these messy things. What he cares more about now is whether he can trigger the mission after encountering Biku Qingjuro.

"After all, avoiding the world is not the solution to the problem. People can't hide in the mountains and forests for the rest of their lives? The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and having a powerful ability but not using it is a pity."

Looking at Ling Ze who was preparing to leave indifferently, Takasugi Jinsaku shook his head. He clearly saw that Ling Ze and them were not in the same way. The powerful force could not be used effectively, which made Takasugi feel very Is unhappy.

"Yes, you are right. When a person's ability is greater, the responsibilities he can perform will be greater, but that is not the obligation of the strong. They also have the choice of "yes" or "no". You can choose to be a hero, but you don’t have the right to make others a hero."

Takasugi Jinsaku's propositions made Ling Ze feel very absurd. He didn't expect that even Takasugi Jinsaku would play the "moral kidnapping" set. This is something that can't be avoided everywhere.

"When you have a strong enough ability, don't be lost by that power. You have the responsibility to restrain the influence of this power on others and the world, but whether you want to help others depends on your own ideas. "

This is Ling Ze's understanding of "the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility". The so-called responsibility is the responsibility of restraining oneself, rather than being "hidden by morality" to fulfill those inexplicable "responsibility."

Heroes are heroes because they have enlightenments that ordinary people can hardly match, but these enlightenments are definitely not imposed by others, nor are they kidnapped by the so-called "morality."
