The pain that belongs to herself, the pain that has not been seen for a long time, the person in front of her, the misty cut Yuuka, has closed her eyes, and this woman tried her best to say "live" to Qishi, and a thousand words were only turned into these three simple words.

"Ah......" Nanami opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say, Yuuka was dead, and the body of the woman who had lost her blood became cold little by little, and Nanami knew what she couldn't get back with words, so she could only become speechless like this, and she became slurred.

Yes...... Just roared silently, and then she buried her head little by little, and her red hands no longer covered Yuuka's wounds in vain, because nothing could flow anymore, and the holes in her body, it would only take a minute or two for human blood to drain, and now nothing could be shed. Nanami's forehead pressed against the hem of Yuuka's clothes, and she could feel the woman's collarbone, whose soul had passed away in such a solid body.

I don't want to care about anything, Nanami hugged Yuuka tightly, and it was the first time to hug someone so solemnly. The things about her in my mind flew by, the communication when she was a child, the surprise when Yoshihara saw her again, the person who pulled out her weapon for Nanami in Nagasaki, the person who traveled with her at the memorial service, and so many more, so many things that Nanami could not forget in a year.

It's a pity, that's the end of it.

Death is the last imprint left by Yuuka to Qishi.

"Abominable, abominable, abominable, abominable, abominable." The things in front of her began to fade, and the seven realities were broken, and the irrepressible black emotions dominated her hands, and the knuckles twisted as if they were struggling, and this process did not last long, and the girl let go of her hand and finally ended the brief hug.

Goodbye, what year and month will the next goodbye be. The eyes that were soaked in tears, the hair that had long been scattered, the ribbon used to tie the hair had disappeared for some time, and there were blood scabs and ashes.

With her left hand, she tucked her long hair back, and she bit her teeth on the haori that had turned into a strip of blood cloth to tear it to a suitable size, and then tied up the long hair that was scattered and in the way, and Nanami carried Yuuka's corpse on her back, holding the knife in one hand, and instead of moving away from the smoke of gunpowder, she continued to take steps towards the chaos.

I'll live, Nanami thought silently to herself, and she made this a promise, and what her father, Hayato Asakura, and Yuuka Kirikiri, had hoped for at the end of their lives was just such a simple thing.

...

...

Isamu Kondo is not surprised that Okita Soji disobeys his orders and returns to the front, he knows the Soji, the Soji is not the naïve child he was when he first met, he has been able to take charge of himself a long time ago, genius and hard work, the face of the Shinsengumi, Okita Soji is not the kind of person who will hold back because of his own illness.

As for dying in battle, Isamu Kondo believes that he has also come to his senses, and now that he has joined the battle, everyone here can die, but the people of the Shinsengumi may be afraid of death, but they will not complain, because they are always armed and waiting for death to be given to others, and waiting for death to add to them.

This is the reason why the evil wolf in Kyoto can make people fearful, so even though Nagakura Shinpachi has brought back the information that Matsubara and Asakura have finally exchanged back, this man did not choose to retreat.

Dealing a fatal blow to the people of the Cheung Chau clan is the best opportunity, and the only one that can be grasped, and this opportunity is worth exchanging all of the Shinsengumi with.

However, the final weapon that the other party took out was indeed terrifying, and just one of them suppressed the offensive of the Shinsengumi and almost changed the tide of the battle.

Okita was fighting with a plurality of enemies, and because the firepower was suppressed, Isamu Kondo ordered the Shinsengumi to temporarily retreat to a place where the terrain was too narrow for the enemy's strange muskets to play, and use the terrain to find an opportunity to counterattack the opponent.

Okita, who is born with natural rationality and superb swordsmanship, is still flexible even if he has a lung disease attack and coughs, and his sword moves are fierce, and he will not fall behind when one person is many, and whenever the enemy shows a flaw, he can give the opponent a fatal blow like a keen poisonous snake, and it is easy to kill four people in a row in an unfavorable situation.

"Captain Okita! We've solved it too! "The members of the Ichiban team have already killed the attacking enemy, but because their position is too prominent, there are also several people who have been hit by the enemy's stray bullets and artillery, although there are not as many casualties as the other side, but the number of people in the Shinsengumi is already small, and every little combat power will be very difficult.

"Don't go out!!" Okita wanted to stop a man who had already killed Red-Eyed and wanted to break out of the siege to deal with the opponent's musket, but was "stopped" by a swordsman who suddenly burst out from the height of the wall.

After the smoke of the artillery fire, what appeared in front of him was a short, red-haired boy, who obviously looked like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child, but he had a cold aura that had been piled up with human life.

The executioner drew his sword, and almost a moment of thought flashed through him, and the head secretary confirmed the identity of the other party.

Kenshin is not a person in the official battle formation of Nagasu Fan, he is just an assassin who can no longer show his face in the sun, so Kenshin is completely unaware of the various plans of the Nagasu Domain, he was originally upset today as a few days ago because of his future road because of the woman in Xuedaiba, but the commotion near Ikedaya was too much, remembering the meeting that Mr. Katsura had told him some time ago, and along the way I heard someone say that the Shinsengumi had encircled and suppressed the reformists, out of worry, Kenshin still came over to find out.

Then he saw that the current situation was completely different from the encirclement and suppression he imagined. The two sides have gone back and forth, and it seems that the overall ability of the Changzhou Domain, which is not as good as that of the Shinsengumi, still has an advantage?

Executioner. But the head secretary didn't think that the other party was just a passerby, and in his opinion, Kenshin's appearance was a sign that he was about to face a strong enemy.

"Ahem." The patience was almost at the limit, and the cough of the general director began to be mixed with bloodshots, and it was absolutely impossible for ordinary people to continue to stand now.

I remember that Qishi said that the executioner drew the knife and Zhai was a person like her younger brother.

Kenshin looked at the head office, he had no intention of fighting such a patient, and now the top priority was to ensure Mr. Katsura's safety. However, the Director-General did not seem to intend to let him go.

If he is unwilling to let him go, then Kenshin, who is already stained with blood, doesn't mind killing one more person, and this will also be Kenshin's first confrontation with the members of the Shinsengumi except for Nanami Asakura, so let's try to see how good the enemy is.

Everything in my heart is the same, there is no need to say too much, the two of them almost at the same time out of the sword, and the shots are all fatal moves, and there seems to be no intention of delaying the battle, after all, the real master fights, winning or losing is only between a small mistake of the other party, even if it is just a thought.

But just before the blades of both sides were about to touch each other's throats, the sword momentum stopped.

No one noticed it, but the girl who suddenly appeared in the middle of them, Asakura Nanami grabbed the blades of the head secretary and Kenshin with both hands, and forcefully stopped the sword momentum of both sides and could not advance any further.

"Seven realities!"

"Sister Asakura!"

The head secretary didn't have time to be happy about Nanami's survival, because she saw the incense on Nanami's body, and the head secretary who had been dealing with dead people for many years could see at a glance that Yuuka was already a corpse, so he quickly knew what was going on.

I know why the girl in front of me exudes so much anger and sadness.

"Director-General, where is that gun?" Qishi asked the head office, and the head secretary also told Qi Shi the location of the enemy's battle formation, which was a blood formation that the Shinsengumi could not attack for a long time.

After getting the location news, Nanami just nodded indifferently, and then walked towards Kenshin, who was a little confused.

Originally, Nanami wanted to find Kenshin after this battle and bring Kenshin back to her master, but now, she is physically and mentally exhausted, and she doesn't want to carry out her original plan anymore, and it seems that the conditions for executing the original plan no longer exist.

Leaning over Kenshin's ear, he looked at the ground and said to Kenshin.

Whatever you want, just do it. Qishi said to Jian Xin, do whatever you want, that is because she is powerless to interfere and has no mood to interfere anymore, it belongs to Jian Xin's own life.

"Director-General, you shouldn't have come, even if you are a genius, but from ancient times to the present, I don't know how many geniuses have died at the hands of the sick devil."

Obviously, her emotions seem to be out of control, but Qishi can still talk to these two people well, and probably only these two people can let her talk about this now.

"Yuuka, please." Entrusting Yuuka's body to the director-general, she said, "You better step down now, and I can solve the rest of the matter." ”

Then, with a clear goal, Kiyomitsu Kaga took up Kiyomitsu Kaga, and launched a one-man charge towards the enemy's solid defense line with a borrowed single-shot musket.

Her charge is all-encompassing, devastating.

Even if the enemy is a weapon that is beyond this era, it will be destroyed by the Seven Realities.

At the end of the Ikedaya raid, it was Nanami Asakura, a female swordsman, who turned the tide of the battle, and everyone who participated in that battle will not forget the guy who cried out the enemy as if a demon had come to the world.

As if he was going to pay tribute to something, he vented his pain.

It's a pity that this is meaningless for Qishi.

"It's over." After seeing such a seven realities, Isamu Kondo knew that this battle was over, and that girl really seemed to have returned from hell and turned into a ghost.

Manpower is unmatched.

...

...

"Miss, the battle report of the Ikedaya incident."

A few days later, Takanomiya Belove, who had returned to Edo, received a report from his men from Kyoto in his study.

Without looking at the specific content, the beloved expression is as if the final ending is already known.

She knew more than what was written on the blank page.

The Emperor Zaoyi faction suffered heavy losses, and important figures such as Yoshida Minoru, Kitazoe Jima, Miyabe Dingzo, Otaka Matajiro, Ishikawa Junjiro, Sugiyama Matsu, and Matsuda Shigesuke died, and then almost all the foundations in Kyoto were shaved out by the Shinsengumi, and Katsura Kogoro was rescued by an extraordinary swordsman to escape, but it seems inevitable that he will be put on an ugly name in the future, and it will be difficult to do anything for a while.

Although the Shinsengumi side also had losses, it had a great reputation, especially one of them.

"Asakura Nanami."

After this battle, the reputation of this female swordsman will be shattered.

"Asakura Nanami, hahahaha." Children who love things like they have always wanted are especially happy and even laugh out loud.

"It's you! It's you! ”

is worthy of being the chosen one, and it is really strong and terrifying.
