Nagano Ninji looked down at the knife on the ground, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.

Sakuma Ryuji said lightly: "You know this knife, right?"

Nagano Ninji's lips trembled: "Could it be that this is...... This is...... A handful of tigers?"

"That's right, it's Hu Che. Ryuji Sakuma's gaze fell on Ninji Nagano: "Although this is just a fake, you should still feel lucky." ”

The real Tiger Sword, like most Toei knives, is the name of the sword that was forged by the name of the sword.

Born in Sawa Yamashita, Toraki is said to have fled to Kanazawa after the Battle of Sekigahara when he was a child, but it was only when he fled to Kanazawa that Torakiru became famous as a swordsmith and became a famous forger in Toei.

He was already in his fifties when he became famous, and he was good at crafting swords from old iron, melting down various discarded helmets and discarded iron nails, but the knives from the hands of Hu Che were not only exquisitely crafted but also extremely sharp!

The carving of this blade is also ingenious, and it can be said that it is a famous knife that can be used as a weapon to kill people or to appreciate the art of art.

At the end of the Edo Shogunate, Kondo, the leader of the Shinsengumi, a pro-shogunate samurai organization, wore a Toratoru sword, of course, that was a long time ago, and some people who have studied these histories also think that the Toraki in Kondo's hands is just a fake.

Those who say that the knife in Kondo's hand should be the most valuable Toei knife in existence, called Kiyoma. Qingmo's value is definitely not wrong, it is far more than Hu Che's value, and the price can even be described by two words: arrogant.

Tiger Che became famous because when it slashed at a person, the blade seemed to be sucked into the body, and the slightest blow often caused serious knife wounds to the enemy.

Everyone knows that Toei's struggles at the end of the Edo period were often tinged with some horrors, and it was a strange era.

During this period, the use of knives was completely different from other times in Toei, because at that time, duels could take place in the streets at any time, which was unthinkable in any era.

Therefore, the *style that was popular in the late Edo era was tough*, and Kondo, who owned this sword, was a professional samurai with strong willpower, so let's not say whether the tiger he owned was real or fake, but it was because he had such a sharpest sword in the world that he demanded that he must make a difference!

You must know that samurai is a profession that exists as an attacker, and it is born to slash!

It was handed down until later, when the knife was burned in a fire caused by the Great Kanto Earthquake......

Sakuma Ryuji admired Kondo very much, so by chance, he saw this fake Tiger Toru and bought it without hesitation.

Although this Tiger Che is just a fake, the sharpness may be even more powerful than the real one back then, after all, the current means are advanced, and the forging technology is far better than the technology of the year.

"What do you want me to do......" Nagano Ninji's face instantly showed a look of panic.

Sakuma Ryuji asked rhetorically, "Can't you even see such a simple question?"

Nagano Ninji's voice trembled: "No...... You can't do this, you don't have the right to do it......"

"Nagano Ninji, only in this way can you regain your dignity. Sakuma Ryuji said coldly: "Don't let me look down on you. ”

"I'm not a samurai, I wouldn't do that. Nagano Ninji shook his head frantically, he couldn't believe that Ryuji Sakuma actually wanted him to cut his own stomach!

This is a unique way of suicide for the Toei samurai.

It is said that the cruel-looking seppuku was as poignant and beautiful as the falling cherry blossoms in the eyes of the samurai.

By cutting a dividing line between life and death with a knife, you can transcend death.

To put it bluntly, seppuku has been given a mythical religious status by the people of Toei.

Dongying people think that this can open their souls and let others see whether they are dirty or innocent. Because the belief of the Dongying people is the abode of human soul and love, dissecting one's own belly means showing one's open soul to others.

"Are you crazy? Do you really think this is so sacred?" Nagano Ninji looked at Ryuji Sakuma like a monster.

Sakuma Ryuji said coldly: "As a native of Dongying, don't you even have this courage?"

"It's not a matter of courage! Don't you know about the Ako incident! Those forty-seven people were ordered to cut their stomachs, but in fact they were beheaded, and they declared their seppuku to the public for the sake of dignity!" Nagano Ninji roared: "The so-called seppuku is just a symbolic stroke on the abdomen with a wooden knife or even a fan, and before the belly is broken, someone will pick up the knife and behead the seppuku!

At this time, Nagano Ninji is naturally telling the truth.

Many of the Toei samurai had this kind of "fan belly", and in the late Edo period, they even committed suicide by taking medicine and then saying that it was seppuku.

It's just to create a lie full of courage.

The process of seppuku is too painful for most people to endure at all, and it would be a shame to shout during the seppuku!

As a result, fake seppuku, which could preserve the form of seppuku and the face of the samurai, while relieving the pain, became popular.

Later, as the Tokugawa shogunate continued to use various means to weaken the local tycoons in order to centralize power, those local tyrants also began to decline, and the samurai who served the lords began to be homeless and reduced to ronin, and even cheated money in the name of seppuku in order to survive.

So this seems to be such a courageous thing, but in fact it is just a fairy tale made up by the Dongying people.

Besides, originally Nagano Ninji was a ninja, not a samurai at all, and even if it was going back to the past, ninjas were also secretive strategies for the lord, sabotage and assassination of opponents, and also did espionage activities such as gathering intelligence and stirring up the party.

They are the kind of agents, the product of the melee of the princes of the Warring States period of the Eastern Ying, they are not so much human beings as they are tools in the hands of their masters, and they do not have the dignity of samurai.

Samurai are different, samurai are theoretically a class of both civil and military, not only must have good character and integrity but also have courage, and the status of ninjas composed of slaves and commoners is obviously lower than that of cultivated samurai.

Nagano Ninji has no reason at all to play seppuku like a samurai!

Besides, even the so-called seppuku of the samurai is mostly fraudulent, and there are few who really have integrity and backbone!

"It's your best bet. Ryuji Sakuma reminded, "I hope you can retain your dignity as a Toei person at the end." ”

Nagano Ninji finally realized that Sakuma Ryuji was going to punish him for Yashirome, perhaps Yayome had already given Sakuma Ryuji an order, and had already informed Sakuma Ryuji that he could punish him if his mission failed.

Otherwise, why would Ryuji Sakuma be so aggressive?

"You tell me, is this what Yashiro means?" Nagano Ninji gasped.

Ryuuji Sakuma frowned: "Actually, there are some things you can choose not to know, isn't that good......?

"No, knowing all of this makes sense to me. Nagano Ninji's eyes flashed with a sharp blue light.
