Extra: Rogue Kenshin (4)

"Come to the newspaper, come to the newspaper~" In the village, the man holding a newspaper happily ran into the village, his face was full of excited expressions, for this small village with backward news, it is really gratifying to be able to see a newspaper, at least it will make people feel... These people are not isolated in this world~

"Today's war is very good~I have taken back the coastline~" Many people gathered around to look at the crumpled newspaper, and commented from time to time: "It seems that the shogunate is still more popular." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Of course, it's not like you haven't read the newspaper a few days ago, what that Zhi Zhixiong did was too much, I can't imagine what the world would be like if he got this world. The other danced and gestured loudly in an exaggerated tone.

"Huh... Is it not easy for the world to finally return to peace after the chaos of the world now?" the old man with his pipe sighed in the smoke and smoke.

"It's a pity that many people can't see it anymore. Naturally, there were other people who said with feelings.

"At least peace is coming, and the shogunate has Tokugawa Shigerge, and his wisdom must have been obvious to everyone in recent years~ It seems that we can indeed live a good life~" Looking at the children running in front of them with happy and carefree smiles, the people around reading the newspaper sighed.

The words that were spoken, the woman... Passing by them, I couldn't help but stop when I heard them discuss things.

"Kenshin...", I inadvertently saw the newspaper in the middle, and the scene in the middle was the appearance of the red-haired man defeating the enemy with a back-edged sword on the battlefield...

Yes, it was just a defeat of the enemy, and it was not killed.

―――――――――――― Cutting ――――――――――――

"It's naïve... Mr. Kenshin..."Saying, on the battlefield that has already erupted, the wigs and others who took the lead in attacking the coastline have also found their respective opponents, only Kenshin, although he himself knows that he doesn't have much power left, but he is still feared by people in the end, and even since boarding this battleship, no one has come to him as an opponent, until...

The arrival of the boy named Sojiro.

"At such a fast speed, all our people on the battlefield were stunned, and Mr. Kenshin's speed was as fast as ever~ But... The physical strength is really already..."Sojiro smiled and raised his sword in front of Kenshin: "Such a Kenshin-sir, do you still want to meet Mr. Shishio?"

"I'm sorry, but my master's path is not something that anyone like you can stop. At this time, a figure jumped down from the railing on a high place and inserted it in the middle of the two, and then turned his back to Kenshin and faced Sojiro: "King to king, general to general." ”

"Although we started the war the moment Mr. Kenshin appeared, we didn't expect that your reflexes were really fast, and you were able to withstand our attack until Mr. Kenshin's arrival. Sojiro said with a smile, "And then... You fought back. ”

"Sogo... Use your sword to make him feel your heart, I don't think his nature is bad. With that, Kenshin didn't look at Sojiro, but turned around and entered the cabin of the battleship.

"Oh... Mr. Kenshin, you really look down on me~" Sojiro narrowed his eyes dangerously: "I dreamed of fighting Mr. Kenshin, but I didn't expect Mr. Kenshin to not even look at me? ”

"On the contrary, he must have thought that I had surpassed him, so he let me deal with you. Sogo choked slightly: "Sojiro, last time I couldn't catch up with you with my speed, this time... I'm not going to lose again. ”

"Is it..."Sojiro's eyes squinted and opened suddenly, and the sword in his hand was slowly unsheathed by him.

"Speaking of which, you are a lot like an opponent I used to know. Sogo said suddenly.

"Oh~"

"Fight so fond of squinting, smiling and killing, that dead rabbit... Divinity. ”

―――――――――― Cutting ―――――――――――

Next... It should be a never-ending battle~ But to everyone's expectations, when the people outside were fighting to the death, Kenshin, who walked into the cabin, sat opposite Zhi Zhixiong, with tables and drinks between them, and after sitting down with each other, they looked at each other very calmly.

"Kenshin-senpai, it's been a long time. ”

"Zhi Zhixiong... I don't really want to see you, for reasons I don't think I need to repeat. ”

"Well~ I know, I know, is it a very happy life? The predecessors are really ruthless.,Start such a huge war without authorization.,And quit the war without authorization and enjoy it yourself.,Speaking of such a wanton character.,To some extent, it's even more hateful than me~"

"Zhi Zhixiong... Can you stop it?"

"That's not good, at least the current shogunate, there is no power that can make me bow my head~ In this world of the jungle, the only people who can make me bow my head are stronger than me, when I lived under the Four Heavenly Kings, under the hands of Miss Jin Zuo, it was all like that. Because they're stronger than me, so... to subdue me. And the current shogunate, which has no absolute superiority in strength or force, is it delusional that I will surrender?

"My existence... It's probably in the way of many people's affairs, so this time I came over except for the wig and others, and it didn't leak to the outside, Zhi Zhixiong, can't the grievances between us be resolved?"

"Senior... Don't let me go to hell and look at you in hell and laugh at you, didn't you understand the nature of this world before I did? ”

"The sword is a murder weapon, and swordsmanship is a murderous trick, no matter how beautiful words are used to embellish it, that is always a fact. But... It's one thing to know, but it's another thing to believe it or not, if the sword itself appears to fight, to take life, then the sword in my hand will not have an opening again. ”

"Seniors, we are now at the threshold of the arrival of a new era, there is no place for us to exist in this era, it should be said that with the advent of the new era, people like us in the old era may have become textbooks. A new era has begun, and we... It's just the hottest spark that blooms before the advent of this new era. ”

"So even if it's only for a moment, do you want to leave your own existence? I don't remember that you are such a man~"

"Of course not, I won't be the kind of short-lived existence, I want to take this new era in my hands, then I am the one who created the new era, not ... Become an epiphany before a new era. ”

"That's why you're forcing me to show up?"

"The existence of seniors is indeed an eyesore, because no matter how many people in this world have ambitions, the existence of seniors must ultimately be taken into account. ”

"Looks like you're not going to let me out of here today. ”

"We today... Only one person was able to leave the cabin. Seniors, although we are each our own master, but in the Shogunate, we are all the same, and we all have the object of so-called revenge. ”

"You are so relieved that you are desperate to take revenge, do you want to stop me in a pretend?"

“...”

Silent... It was already the last words of both sides, the wine had cooled, and people's eyes were gradually cold.

The bandages on Zhi Zhixiong's body have begun to burst, and the temperature in his body is gradually rising... How long will he be able to hold out?

And Kenshin... How long can it last?
