All around was a commotion.

The sound of a human roaring, the sound of a projectile grinding against the air, the sound of a bird flying from its fingers in fright, many, many more..., including the voices that Nanami could and couldn't recognize, all swirled around her head.

Unconsciously, her five senses became sharper during the practice with Master Bigu, but it was only today that she felt that she had probably never experienced everything she could hear.

"Quiet ......"

Qishi shouted.

She shouted to stop the crowd in front of her, and probably these samurai ronin didn't quite understand why they were going to listen to a woman, but they involuntarily quieted down.

Asakura Nanami gradually became a little strange.

Since I left the mountain for more than a year, I have experienced a lot of things, and even if I am not good, I should have made some progress.

"Go back, if you still cherish your life."

The current situation is that they are surrounded by the people of the Shinsengumi, and the Shinsengumi are well equipped, and if there is a real fight, no one side will have the advantage, and the casualties are certain.

"Unwilling to back down?" Seven real questions.

"You...... Are you looking down on us? In the face of Qishi's question, someone rushed out directly and slashed at her with a high sword.

"Nope."

To put it mildly, the four fingers of the girl's right hand were pressed against the deadly blade, and the thumb curled slightly to grasp the attacker's knife, and no matter how much the opponent struggled, he could not make his weapon move forward.

With a sigh, Qishi slapped away the opponent's sword, and the opponent's weapon was taken off so that they could probably have a good chat.

"If you don't retreat without the order of the commander-in-chief, if you are below, you probably can't do it to such an extent, after all, in a certain sense, life is the first thing."

"You ......"

"So, guys."

The next words were addressed to all those present, both openly and secretly.

"I'll go and get the order to retreat from your commander-in-chief, so I'll do it."

Nanami felt a little tired, she must have been tired after this incident for so long, in fact, whether it was Sasaki Sazaburo or Isamu Kondo, or the beloved Takanomiya who seemed to be in control of everything, what they wanted to do was probably much simpler than they expected.

Just be able to sit down and talk about it.

But a conversation between these people involves a lot of things, human lives, not because of anything else, just because each of them has a reason not to compromise.

Qishi also has such a reason, but now she has the power to not want to argue, and being able to sit down and talk about that is what she prays for.

So after Nanami put down the words that seemed to be joking, he didn't care what the people in front of him were thinking, and walked inside with a knife.

“…… Woo. ”

The roadblocks got out of the way.

After having the first person to get out of the way, there will be a second one, and seeing that the people in the back group did not leave, they made way for Asakura Nanami, for a very simple reason.

Sasaki Sazaburo didn't say that people were not allowed to enter, so there was probably nothing wrong with letting Nanami Asakura in.

"There's more and more of it, you."

Saito said that he also put away his sword, because he knew that in the current situation, he would not be able to fight no matter what.

"Let's go." Nanami walked in front of Saito and stepped into the door of the Shinsengumi.

Watching all the development, Takanomiya was silent, and said to Okita after a while.

"Well, you have a good eye, she's beautiful. And it's getting more and more mature, although it's still a little stubborn. ”

"Is it mature...... I feel like she's becoming more and more like she was when she was a kid. ”

Okita's words are confusing.

"What?"

"It's nothing, Yuuka."

"Kyoichi is protecting her, after all, until everything is settled, we can only act as if she doesn't exist......"

Even if Yuuka is still alive, she must be dead now.

The few people in the room were able to talk well, all based on the premise that Yuuka was not there.

……

……

"Recently, Mr. Sasaki has been busy because of the anti-thief matter in Changzhou."

Isamu Kondo goes straight to the point, both sides know in their hearts, and there is no point in delaying any longer, so it is better to make what you want to say clear earlier.

"Especially the shadow killer led by Scarlet Village, it can't be prevented."

"Indeed...... But what is that, the security of the inner city of Kyoto will naturally have a way to deal with it, so please Kondo-kun You can rest assured. ”

Sasaki still had the intention to let the Shinsengumi fight with Nagasu before, and then he solved the two big troubles at the same time while reaping the fisherman's profits, but unfortunately it was based on the namelessness of the Shinsengumi, and the current Shinsengumi hid his weaknesses well and set him at the same time.

"The country is in trouble...... It is also the duty of the next to share Mr. Sasaki's worries. ”

"Hahaha, I understand this affection."

Even if the situation is unfavorable, he still doesn't want to let go, he is very tenacious.

"So, how about the Shinsengumi acting on their own, so as not to hinder you from seeing the group on official business?"

"Disturbed ......"

Just as the atmosphere was stagnant and gradually became tense, Nanami knocked on the door and walked in, and then walked to the back of Kondo and the others and sat down quietly.

After seeing the appearance of Qishi, Sasaki was even more shaken, a good new selection group, and a good set.

If the Shinsengumi wanted to kill them, it really wouldn't have to take much effort.

"Chief."

The tone of the letter girl is still the same as on weekdays, and she is unusually calm, not like being in the tiger's den in Longtan, but like drinking tea in a teahouse.

"Peace of mind."

Until reinforcements arrive, I will keep you safe.

Even if you fight to the death, you won't get a bargain for the rural ronins of the Shinsengumi.

"Chief Sasaki."

Qishi spoke.

"I told the people outside before that I want to get the order to retreat from you."

"......" Sasaki frowned, "Woman, what do you mean......"

"If I can defeat your lieutenant in three moves, let the people outside retreat."

Seven realities understand the current situation. If she can defeat Imai Nobume in three moves, then there is no such thing as delaying time, and no matter how timely the support of the outside subordinates is, it is estimated that the last thing to see will only be Sasaki Kozaburo, whose corpse is cold.

"Okay, to be honest, I've long wanted to see Asakura-kun's swordsmanship, and it's a pity that I couldn't see Asakura-kun show it last time we met."

"Then, I'll provide a dojo for the two of you to duel......" Isamu Kondo stood up.

"True Sword Wins and Loses...... How is it. ”

Neither Qishi nor Xinnu had any objections.

After deciding this, everyone present moved to the dojo in the Shinsengumi, and before leaving the door, Hijikata called out to Nanami Asakura and returned her Haori to her.

"Why don't any of you tell me the truth?" Hijikata asked.

"Because Mr. Kondo said that if you let Mr. Hijikata act, I'm afraid that it will be debunked in an instant."

“……”

Putting on Haori, Nanami trotted two steps to keep up with the person in front.
