Clang! ! !
After a stubby exchange, Okada seemed to sheath his sword, while Jiang Cheng acted as if he had never moved it.
After a full ten seconds, Okada Shinzo turned back to look at Jiang Cheng, who was carrying his body on his back, and slowly landed on the ground.
"What a beautiful light..."
As he spoke, Okada Shikou's armor composed of mechanical tentacles began to collapse and fall. He lost...
"One!"
Gui announced loudly.
"It's too fast..." Xinbaji looked in disbelief, "I didn't see anything clearly at all..."
[Isn’t it true that the production team deleted the scene?]
So read the wooden sign Elizabeth held up.
"Indeed, a beautiful sword-drawing technique." Jiang Cheng turned his head and said softly to Okada Shizo who was lying on the ground, "Also, it is incredibly [strong]."
"Liar... liar..." Okada Shizo raised his lips and continued weakly, "Obviously I can't even withstand your blow... I..."
"No, that's not what I meant," Jiang Cheng explained softly, "You..."
Before Jiang Cheng could finish speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by a voice.
"Stand up! Hongying will not lose!" Tetsuya stood on a high place and shouted at Okada Shizo, "Give yourself to Hongying! Give up resistance! Hongying will never lose!"
"Shut up..." Jiang Cheng was about to stop him, but another voice interrupted Jiang Cheng again.
"Stop! Brother!" Tie Zi shouted at Tie Ya, "That kind of thing is not a real sword at all! Have you forgotten your father's teachings?!"
"Don't you hope that you can transform into a sword?!" Tetsuya ignored Tetsuko's words and continued to shout at Okada Shizo, "What are you waiting for?! You didn't mean to become a bonfire that can protect Takasugi. A knife?! Do you have to give up at this level?!"
"Shut up." Jiang Cheng's voice without any emotion sounded, and then he continued to look at Okada Shizo who was lying on the ground struggling under the constant erosion of red cherry blossoms, "I am the person whose spirit is occupied by that kind of thing. I will never agree, that is not a samurai! I will not admit that a person who cannot defeat that kind of thing is a samurai! Are you willing to do this?! You... your desire to protect Gao Zai is not as strong as that one. Sword?!"
"Whether it's me or... Gao Zai," Jiang Cheng said, looking at Gao Shan who was still leaning aside, "neither will admit it! Think about it! Where is your real sword! Think about it now!" Ah! Your real sword, the real sword buried in your heart, the sword named [Protect Takasugi]!"
After Jiang Cheng finished speaking, Okada Shinzo finally stopped struggling. After spitting out a mouthful of black bruises, he threw Hongying out with all his strength.
"That's not... the real me..." Okada Shizo murmured, then slowly turned his head to Takasugi, "Sir, I'm sorry... after all..."
"That's enough," Jiang Cheng came to Okada Shizo, squatted down slowly, and continued in a very small voice that only two people could hear, "But after seeing you, I gradually felt that , he has nothing behind him, and you guys are guarding his back, and I feel relieved. Thank you... "
"Ha... Hahaha..." Okada Shizo smiled, bleeding and laughing at the same time, "I... understand. It turns out... even without me... "
With that said, Okada Shizou turned his head to Gintoki and Katsura. Although he couldn't see it, Okada Shizou could feel [Light]. Whether it was Jiang Cheng, Gintoki or Katsura, he could feel it. To that kind of dazzling [light].
"You...have always stood behind him...then...I feel relieved..."
Okada Shinzo has reached the last moment. Originally, his life was maintained by Benizakura. Although Benizakura continued to compete with him for control of his body and eroded his body, in a sense, Benizakura also Supporting his life.
Okada Shinzo, who had thrown away the red cherry blossoms, was already exhausted.
"Then... please... sir... please... that bonfire... please..." Okada seemed to be hiding in Jiang Cheng's ear, murmuring the last sentence, and finally...
"Maybe in a sense, I took away your life," Jiang Cheng smiled bitterly, "Although I swore, but... well, I understand, your last wish."
After saying that, Jiang Cheng stood up, took one last look at Okada Shizo with a smile on his face, and turned to glance at Takasugi.
"Is that guy... mourning that murderer?" Youzi asked in a low voice.
"I don't know, but that adult must have his own ideas." Heita Takeichi murmured back.
"Hey," Jiang Cheng shouted to Tie Zi and threw the sword in his hand towards Tie Zi, "it's a good sword."
"Oh, oh," Tiezi hurriedly caught the sword thrown by Jiang Cheng, "Thanks for the compliment."
"Then, finally..." As he spoke, Jiang Cheng walked towards Gao Shan slowly, grinned and showed his white teeth, and said with a smile, "Maybe it's time to say goodbye, Gao Zai."
Everyone was watching Jiang Cheng and Gao Shan. For some reason, everyone felt that as long as Jiang Cheng was here, the dispute would not continue.
"Humph," Gui snorted and continued, "I always feel that it is exactly the same as before. Wherever he is, no matter what disputes we have, they will be stopped. But I didn't expect that there is still hope to see this in this life. One scene.”
"It seems that your eyes crossed the Sanjuku River first," Gintoki curled his lips and replied, then looked behind Jiang Cheng. There was a deep knife mark on Jiang Cheng's kimono, and there were dry marks on the kimono. There were bloodstains all over, "That idiot, his nerves must have a limit. Otherwise, there is no guarantee that he will really be chopped off that day."
"Maybe," Gui chuckled, then turned to look at his subordinates, "It's time for us to leave. This dispute is over. All the red cherry trees have been destroyed, let's go!"
"Senior, are you going to let them go like this?" Youzi asked.
"After all, His Excellency Jinzhu has not given the order yet, even if you ask me, I will..."
Before Heita Takeichi finished speaking, he suddenly saw Jiang Cheng clenching his fist and involuntarily punching Takasugi on the right cheek.
After taking a punch, Gao Shan staggered back several steps to the left. Fortunately, Jiang Cheng didn't hit hard, so Gao Shan didn't fall.
Gao Shan stood up straight, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then raised his head and still looked at Jiang Cheng without saying a word.
"I'm sorry, that person asked me to punch him. In a dream." Jiang Cheng put away his fist, still smiling, "Also... that knife really hurt you." !”
"What did you Hundan do to Lord Jinzhu?!" Youzi instantly raised his guns and cursed at Jiang Cheng.
"That person?" Gao Shan finally spoke, then smiled and continued, "He's gone a long time ago, Jiang Cheng, that person is gone a long time ago. Are you still awake? What's going on? Where are your eyes looking at? Why are you still looking at me with that look at this time? That... look exactly like the teacher's."
"Confirm, maybe it's like you said, that person has indeed disappeared, but," Jiang Cheng said, looking at Gao Shan seriously, his eyes staring straight at Gao Shan, "He once existed, really existed! Do you want to abandon those pasts?! I remember I said, I can turn a blind eye to whatever life you choose, but... If you dare to abandon those pasts, the past of that person's existence, I... I will never let you go!"
"I don't remember that kind of kid's play house thing," Takasugi chuckled, pointing to his chest and continued, "There is nothing here anymore, you are the only one who is obsessed with the memories of the past. Human. It’s time for you to admit it, right? We are actually the same, we are all empty shells with nothing left."
"No, it's not!" Jiang Cheng retorted loudly, then pointed at Okada Shizo who was lying on the ground, and then pointed at the ghost soldiers headed by Matako and Takeichi Benheita, "Don't you still have them? You Is it true that you can’t feel even a trace of warmth in your heart? Aren’t they brought together because of you? No matter what you want to do, won’t they never leave you? You bastard, look back. ! There are many people behind you!"
"That's enough, Jiang Cheng." Gui stepped forward and patted Jiang Cheng's shoulder. "There's no need to say so much. Gao Shan has already left in another direction that we can't reach. You It’s useless to say anything.”
With that said, Gui looked at Takasugi and said, "Takasugi, I hate you, both before and now. But I always feel that we are companions, both before and now. Perhaps, at that time, standing in front of the countless tombs We left in different directions, but I never felt that it was a separation..."
"What are you talking about? Maybe we really started from the same place, but we have set our sights on different directions since then," Takasugi said, taking out a book from his arms... The cover said Author of the book "Bushido for Beginners", "Everyone lets themselves go and lives in a completely different direction. I am the same as I was then, and the direction I am looking at is the same as that time... "
"Wig, when I heard you say that you should pick up the sword for the country and for your friends, I actually felt that anything was fine. Think about it, the sword you are holding, who taught us how to use the sword? We Who taught us the way of the warrior and the way of survival?"
"The person who gave us the world we live in is undoubtedly Teacher Songyang. But this world took him away from us, so we can only fight with this world and take away his world. We can only destroy it... Hey, you guys, what do you think about living in this world? How can you enjoy a leisurely life in this world that has taken away your teacher? I hate this. Deep into the bones…”
