Chapter 14: "Naval Heroes"
Hearing the water ghost actually say this, Fujita Emasa, who was tied up by the eagle group over there, suddenly began to struggle violently: "You bastard! I've brought so many people to you, and you don't keep your credit! Shut up! β
"I'm a ghost!"
The water ghost retorted to him as a matter of course, "Even if they don't come today, I plan to make this matter known to everyone, so that the world can see your faceβah! β
The ghost screamed, and it turned out that it was the Hinawa knife that stabbed him in the heart.
Ichiro was looking at him with red eyes, "What the hell is going on?" β
The relationship between these two guys completely confuses Genichiro.
This ghost seems to be a comrade-in-arms with Fujita E, and he should have died in the war that year, but he was saved by the so-called ghost king.
After all, according to Murata, only the Oni King has the ability to turn people into ghosts.
After losing his memory, the water ghost only knows that he wants to take revenge on someone.
Finally, after seeing in the newspaper that a fort was actually named after him, the water ghost remembered the past and who the person he wanted revenge was.
It's Emasa Fujita in front of him.
After finding Fujita Emasa, he didn't seem to take revenge immediately, but used the events of the year as a threat, threatening the other party to bring him food, and then pretending to keep it a secret, but in fact he didn't intend to do so.
To this day, Genichiro and the Takashi have come here.
"Can't say it! Can't say it! β
Fujita Emasa's face turned purple in a hurry, and his frightened look was even more terrifying than that of the water ghost and the red-eyed Ichiro.
Seeing that Genichiro frowned, Jitaka directly raised his right foot and stepped heavily on the back of Fujita Emasa's head, forcing his nose and mouth to make a close contact with the ground.
Even the ghosts were stunned for a moment, these two guys were really different from the ghost killing team, and they were actually merciless to humans.
I'm going to have to smash at least a few teeth.
When he was stunned, Genichiro frowned and twisted the Hinawa knife, which broke the ghost's heart: "What do you think you have to do with him?" β
"I say! I said! Don't torture me anymore! It hurts! It really hurts! β
The water ghost wailed and gave the answer: "My name is Haruta Zaoji, I used to be the same time as this guy, and I was also the captain of the cruiser Onida Maru!" β
"You're a general, too?"
Seeing the appearance of this ghost now, Genichiro couldn't believe it, is this the Japanese soldier today?
If you scream and scream like this in front of the enemy, you should be hacked to death with a knife, and you won't even have a chance to cut your stomach!
The water ghost understood his eyes, and immediately felt insulted: "You guys go check!" The government must have my name there! β
Ichiro glanced at the eagles, who immediately took out a stack of newspapers from under their feathered coats like jingle cats and scanned them one by one.
Oni and Emasa Fujita are both confused.
Why did you really start to check.
After about forty seconds, the eagles pulled out a newspaper and said, "There is his name!" Two months ago, the newspaper announced that the new warship was officially put into service, named after the naval hero Emasa Fujita. One of the batteries of this battleship is called Haruta Zoji, which is used to commemorate a captain who died in a naval battle three years ago, and it should be this guy. β
"This is the newspaper! It was because of this newspaper that I regained my memory. β
The ghost, as if seeing that his words had been proven, shouted triumphantly, "I'm not lying!" β
[The mood of such a thing as a ghost changes too quickly. γ
Ichiro thought to himself.
"But you're not dead."
"I'm not dead!"
The water ghost's face changed in seconds, and he suddenly looked viciously at Fujita Emasa who was lying at the feet of the eagles.
"But he's not a naval hero either! He's just a coward and an accomplice of politicians who drags others down and is cowardly! It's all fake in the newspapers! Fake! β
"What does the newspaper say?" Ichiro asked.
Jiying people briefly recounted it: "The newspaper wrote that the Onida Maru and three frigates were surrounded by three enemy cruisers, and Fujita Jiang rushed to the rescue, and finally cooperated with the surrounded fleet to sink all three cruisers, but only his cruiser survived on the Japanese side!" β
"That's a lie! It's a lie! β
The ghost roared, and the remaining hand smashed the ground frantically, and after a bunch of impolite expletives in his mouth, he angrily scolded, "It's not me who is surrounded, it's this guy!" It was I who went to save people, but this guy actually left us and ran away alone! Sinking a battleship has nothing to do with him! It was we who desperately sank two ships, and that guy Damu sank the third one! β
Ichiro and Jitaka looked at Fujita Emasa lying on the ground like a dead dog at the same time, this guy didn't refute, I don't know if he didn't dare, or if this ghost was telling the truth.
"At that time, our ships were no longer dead, but we still have two ships left, and there are living people on them!"
As he spoke, the water ghost seemed to think of the desperate scene at that time, and actually cried.
"But this guy ...... But this guy ...... It's gone! β
"Woo woo woo - after a few crew members and I were washed ashore by the waves, only I was dying, rescued by the adult, turned into a ghost, but I don't remember anything."
"I was so hungry! I'm so hungry! β
"In order to survive, I ate the corpses of my own crew! I forgot who they were, and they were so happy! Eat so happily! β
"Woooooo
The ghost didn't look happy at all, but began to cry.
"It's all his fault! It's all him! It's all this guy's fault! β
"We can still be saved! Obviously there is still salvation! β
Ichiro listened quietly, and the true feelings of this ghost were revealed, but he suddenly seemed like a person.
And this so-called naval hero is playing dead without saying a word.
The truth is so cruel.
"And what happened after that? You're going to threaten him? β
After waiting quietly for a while, Ichiro asked.
"I'm looking for him, great hero, it's so easy to find him! When he saw me, he was terrified! β
The ghost sarcastically mocked Fujita with tears in his eyes, and his voice became perverted, "He told me that he couldn't save me......"
At this time, Fujita, who had not spoken for a long time, raised his head with difficulty, his eyes were full of pleading, and he shouted hoarsely, "I can't say it! Can't say it! If you say it, the navy will be finished! β
And the ghost was even more excited.
"The more you don't tell me, the more I'm going to say it!"
"He told me that he was contacted by Satsuma officials in the pre-war cabinet! If in the war, a ship with a captain from Cheung Chau is fatally hit, we are not allowed to save people! β
"In this way, we can weaken the power of our Changzhou people in the navy! Even if the war is lost, it will be the fall of the Cheung Chau faction in the main battle! β
"In the end, it was the cabinet people who helped him hide the truth! It's also the people of the cabinet who elected this guy to be some kind of bullshit hero! β
"And those of us who sacrificed, real soldiers, can only leave a name on the battery!"
As he spoke, the ghost became angry again, and shouted at Fujita Emasa, "Say I'm an evil ghost!" What about you guys! What are you? β
It's already Koichiro who doesn't know how many times I've heard about Nagasu and Satsuma today.
These two feudal domains were the first regions in Japan to carry out modern military reforms, and they were also the vanguard of the Shogunate faction.
However, after the downfall, they regained control of the government like the shogunate by controlling the parliament and cabinet, and showed a one-sided and absolute power in Japan.
The three university students were arrested for petitioning at the entrance of the Emperor's Mansion to reduce the number of seats in the Diet from the Nagasa region.
Unexpectedly, the forces in these two regions seem to be one, but in fact they are infighting.
It is better to sacrifice the generals who have fallen on the expedition, than to risk the dignity of the entire country being trampled on, in exchange for the fall of the opponent.
This kind of despicable means made even Genichiro Reina, who has always been known for his unscrupulous means, feel a chill down his spine.
This is a blatant betrayal!
What a pitiful thing it is for a general to be betrayed by his own country.
"So, you're going to ask him to find you soldiers from the Satsuma region? Do you want to get revenge on the Satsuma? β
"Revenge, how can I take revenge on them?"
The ghost had a grim expression, "I'm not just a Satsuma eater!" β
"I asked this guy to bring them here, feast them, get them drunk, make sure they tell the truth!"
"Only those truly heroic boys who are willing to sacrifice in exchange for a name in order to become a fort deserve to be eaten by me! The ants who are unwilling or distracted have gone back to their nests! β
"How can a filthy place like the navy, a corrupt place like the Japanese army, deserve to have heroes!"
The mouth under the mask of the eagles opened slightly, obviously understanding the brain circuits of ghosts, which was really difficult.
He thought that this ghost only ate the Satsuma people in order to get revenge.
As a result, the guy turned his head and said that it was not revenge, but to protect Satsuma's naval heroes from repeating his mistakes.
The solution is to eat them!
The logic of God.
"I know what you're thinking!"
The ghost patted himself on the belly and said triumphantly, "A hero is worthy of a hero!" Isn't my temple of the five internal organs more suitable for worshipping them than those shrines? β
After a long time, Ichiro said, "You're crazy." β
Then he said the next thing, "I used to be crazy too." β
Without him, Ichiro just remembered those Taro soldiers.
It was a collaborative project between Ashina and Senhoji, and he betrayed Ashina's homeless children, and some of them became the experimental subjects of Miko, and some of them were ripen by Senfeng Temple with Taro persimmons.
Although Taro Bing can have a huge body more than two meters tall and terrifying strength in just a few years, his heart stays in the time of a child.
Give them weapons, or force them to put on armor, and then coax them with food and small animals (dogs), and they will obediently fight for Ashina.
But this is not a betrayal.
He used to feel that in order for Ashina to exist, everyone should be willing to sacrifice everything to save the country, just like him.
But before the fall of this country, he had already betrayed the people of Ashina.
He raised the Hinawa Sword in his hand high, the red in his eyes began to fade, and his tone also carried some understanding: "Since the words are finished, then accept your fate and act like a real general." β
"Real General ......"
The ghost looked at Genichiro and muttered, but just as Genichiro was about to cut off his head, the water ghost suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute! Wait a minute! β
"What else is going on with you?" Ichiro immediately understood, "Don't worry, I won't let that guy go." β
"Then will you tell the truth of the matter?" The ghost asked with some anticipation.
"If it works for me."
Ichiro nodded, if he knew about it, then the cabinet members from Satsuma would have to be restrained by him.
"Great! That's great! I want to live until that day! β
"Impossible."
Ichiro shook his head.
"Then I have one last wish!"
The ghost looked at Genichiro's face turning cold, and quickly said, "Even death row prisoners have a severed meal, and I have done something for this country anyway." β
"This country has nothing to do with me."
In the eyes of Genichiro, there are only two kinds of people at this time, Ashina and others.
Are people other than Wei Mingzhong really regarded as "people" by him?
This is clear only to Genichiro himself.
"Please! Please! β
Seeing that it didn't make sense, this ghost actually began to wail, "Please, let me kill him myself!" You don't want to have the blood of this kind of person on your knife. β
Ichiro was stunned.
The knife in his hand is Murata's ghost slashing knife, which may bring good luck, so it's best not to kill.
King Kong Iron Summons Thunder, although it is to cut people, but it is indeed a little difficult to accept this kind of villain.
So he nodded and moved the Nihon Wheel Knife away, but he was always on the lookout for the ghost.
The water ghost stood up on one foot and jumped towards Fujita who was lying on the ground, his face became more and more hideous and distorted, and Fujita Emasa, who was not suppressed by the eagles, kowtowed desperately.
"Please, let me go!"
"I'm about to become Lord of the Navy!"
"When the time comes, I will definitely give you a good name!"
He seemed to have forgotten that Ichiro didn't intend to spare him in the first place, and desperately wanted to pick up a life in front of the ghost.
And the water ghost just smiled with a gloomy face, and the aquatic weed on his head that was chopped by Genichiro finally grew a new one.
The price is that his hands and feet are no longer restored.
Ichiro nodded secretly, which meant that the ghost would not be thinking about running away anymore
"Please......"
"Die! You trash! β
The last remaining aquatic plants stabbed forward, and the target was not Fujita Emasa's throat, but his eyes.
Apparently to make him extremely frightened and frightened before he died.
The ghost smiled contentedly.
And at this very moment.
"Dingβ"
The tip of the aquatic weed was hit by something and went off course.
A kunai fell to the ground.
Ichiro's red eyes shrank suddenly, he knew very well the strength of this aquatic weed, and he could use a kunai to "bounce back", how much strength this was.
Is it some other ghost?
Looking in the direction from which Kunai came, a tall figure, wearing a sleeveless version of the Ghost Slayer uniform, stood on the roof of Fujita's small building, his right hand pressed on the side of the glittering forehead jewel, making a self-righteous appearance.
Then, he opened a pair of big fanatical eyes and looked at the three ghosts below.
"Why do two people condone one ghost and kill the other?"
"And that red-eyed boy over there, are you a new ghost or a strange person?"
"And most importantlyβ"
Cosmos Tianyuan gave a thumbs up to the sky, "Whose great festival is that thunder that is as gorgeous as the wrath of the gods?" β
"Tell the gorgeous ninja-sama truthfully!"
Ichiro: "......"
Ghost: "......"
Eagles: "......"
Emasa Fujita: "Quick! Help me! I'm Navy hero Emasa Fujita! β
