"what?"
"It hurts..." After saying that, Gintoki waved it casually, "Anyway, it's up to you. Just remember that you will lose money on this commission, and don't blame others afterwards."
"Where are you going Aru?"
"It's important to go to bed and recharge your batteries. You should also go to bed early."
Lord Matsudaira, who was standing with Maomao, sighed and said, "It seems that we couldn't lure out that boy. What a pity."
"He is different from the rest of us. Even if I can't see his direction, I know that he never stops. That straight back... really makes people feel ashamed." Maomao looked at the bright moon in the sky and whispered. He sighed with emotion, but then suddenly thought of something again, and looked down at the tea cup in his hand, "Then... his friend, Mao Mao, who didn't understand anything, is already gone, and all he has is a useless change. He is no longer a general of the country."
…
At the same time, in Edo, inside the Hitotsubashi residence.
A certain tadpole eyebrow standing in the third-floor pavilion, with his hands behind his back, looked calmly at the guards below who were carrying lanterns and searching for something. He said to himself in a calm tone: "A group of suspicious people seem to be investigating me. It's really strange. , what on earth did I do? I just wanted to get rid of that sad man sitting on the rotten throne.
Forget it, Maomao, no one in this country is on your side anymore. But those who side with me, Kiki Hitotsubashi, have minions all over the world. Even if I don't take a step away from here, I can easily chop off your head. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Tadpole Eyebrow... No, it was the sliding door behind Hitotsubashi Kiki that was pulled open.
"Look, the new right-hand man has also arrived." Xixi, who felt good about herself, said, "I have been waiting for you for a long time, you are the one..."
Xixi, who had just turned around and had not finished speaking, was met with Kamui's fist.
After a heavy blow, Xixi vomited blood and smashed the railing, flying out like a cannonball and hitting the wall of the nearby house heavily.
boom! !
At this moment, Takasugi, with a pipe in his mouth, came behind Kamui.
"Hey, what are you doing, kid?"
"Huh?" Shenwei asked in confusion, then turned around and showed a cute smile, "Didn't you say just kill the general?"
Looking at Xixi who was trapped in the wall and beaten into a pig's head, Gao Shan replied calmly: "That man is not a general, he is the next general."
"Isn't that also a general?"
"Forget it, you hit his head so hard, I guess he won't remember anything. Anyway, it's just a mikoshi that's about to break down."
"What, it turns out it's not him. But the head of a country can't be that weak. Then who is he?"
"So didn't I say it?" As he spoke, Gao Shan took off the pipe and gently exhaled a puff of smoke, "It's just a chess piece."
It is worth mentioning that it was not until a few minutes later that the unconscious Xixi was picked off the wall by his retainers and taken to an ambulance.
…
"So that's it, he is Hitotsubashi Kiki, is he your flag in this game of stealing the country?" As he said that, Kamui turned back and glanced at Takasugi who was leaning on the door smoking, "But such a weak chess piece, really Is it useful? If it were me, other abilities aside, I would definitely use a chess piece with full force points."
"As you can see," Takasugi returned casually, "the hard-prepared celebration was disrupted by the unauthorized actions of such an idiot who wanted to get the throne of the general (referring to the assassination of the general on the main hall). If the last move goes wrong, He will become a loser and his head will fall to the ground. This young man seems to not know this kind of thing.
But forget it, you have invested so much, even if you only have one head left, you have to make good use of it. I put the blame for the assassination of the general on the Hitotsubashi faction, so that I could draw the center's attention away. Then, because of the blow you just made, others will think that the Hitotsubashi faction has also been targeted and become a victim. Although it is a bit rough, it will not arouse suspicion.
It's up to you to defeat the opponent's entire army or overturn the entire chess game. "
"Really? But I heard that one of them escaped, and even escaped to that person." Kamui replied, then raised his lips and looked at Takasugi who came forward, "At this time... I can still Are you so calm? Can you still follow the plan? Maybe... the chessboard was not in your hands from the beginning."
"Then... that's really interesting." Takasugi curled up his lips, and at the same time a glint of coldness or excitement flashed in his eyes, "But if that's really the case, maybe... you can catch that idiot. Tails, completely...defeat him."
"Hopefully, after all, this is the only purpose of cooperating with you, Gao Zai." Kamui smiled even more relaxedly, but the next moment the umbrella in his hand pointed at Gao Shan, "Of course, it would be better to kill all of you directly. Maybe we can catch him by the tail.”
"Really?" Takasugi said disdainfully, "Then I'll probably disappoint you. After all... if you kill too few, it won't have any effect on him, and then... you can't even win against him, and the same goes for me. .”
"It's getting more and more interesting," Shenwei put away his umbrella and licked his lips excitedly, his expression turning ferocious for a moment, "Then... let me see it."
"But speaking of the front, we shouldn't have any drama about who betrays whom, right?"
"Ara~ Gaozi, how did you guess that I just thought of this? Are you the roundworm in my stomach? It's so scary~"
"Humph, he is exactly the same as that idiot." Takasugi snorted disdainfully, "Well, it's up to you, but whether you want to catch his tail or want to cut off those so-called chains you think he has, This step is indispensable. Of course, if you are spanked afterwards, I will not come forward to intercede for you. "
"It's troublesome... That person doesn't know the severity of his actions every time. How about I just betray him now? After all, it's quite embarrassing to be spanked."
"I don't know what that idiot taught you, but you would follow me and do something that will definitely get you scolded. I thought... you could be more like him."
"If I learn from that kind of man, my life will probably be over." Kamui narrowed his eyes and raised an index finger, the hair on his head still moving. "And if I want to ask him what he taught me, it's probably "Never be like him". "
"What a great guy."
…
The next day, under Songping Gong's careful plan, the escort general set out for Beijing.
The so-called careful plan was to prepare three Kagemusha to smoothly transport the general to Kyoto at the foot of the emperor, so that the real general could blend into the cargo in the spaceship dispatched by the shogunate and take the air route directly.
One of the Kagemusha (double) was in Edo in order to cover up the matter, and in order to confuse the enemy even if the plan was exposed, it was decided to let the second Kagemusha go north by water.
The third Kagemusha took the land route to the west, also to confuse the enemy.
Then, if the plan is exposed, the land team is the most vulnerable to sneak attacks and the team with the highest mortality rate.
In order to take the initiative to provoke this team's mission, hoping to attract all the enemy's attention, the director and deputy director of the True Selection Team joined this team.
As for this team of Kagemusha...
"Ah, it's so hot," the sound of a rotting dead fish can came from the sedan, and at the same time, pieces of disguise were thrown out, "Isn't there a general's sweat-absorbent sweatshirt or something?"
"Does he actually want to change into a sweat-absorbent sweatshirt? Can this general be so casual?!" Fourteen, who was wearing a bamboo hat and wearing casual clothes, pointed at the sedan being carried with a bruised face and an unhappy look on his face, "Are you kidding me! Why? We have to protect such a stupid Highness!"
The orangutan in casual clothes echoed with his veins popping out: "Besides, that kind of double looks like a fake general at first glance!"
"Are you stupid?" Kagura, who was wearing a Tsukiyo turban and the same clothes as the general, with white powder on her face, opened the sedan and said, "I am going to Kyoto incognito for a private visit, so why not dress up in disguise?" It’s nothing but normal~”
Looking at Kagura's expression of gloating or enjoying it, Fourteen complained again: "Why are you still in disguise? He has become another general!"
"If you want to deceive the enemy, you have to put on a show, right?" Xinbaji, who was also crowded in the sedan and slapping fans, took over the words, and then continued in a pretentious tone, "Facing the general, which one Is the retainer so arrogant?"
"Hey! How many generals are in this sedan?!"
