章 147: Benizakura Sword Part 7

"Yes, but..." Takasugi's voice sounded behind Kawaki, "There are some habits that you can't change for the rest of your life. I remember them very clearly. Every movement, every step, it tells me that you have reached your limit..."

"Takaji, you..."

Without waiting for Kawaki to respond, Takasugi grabbed the sword at the side and slashed straight at Kawaki's back.

In an instant, blood spurted out. Then, Takasugi raised his foot and kicked Kawaki off the boat.

"Shinsuke-sama..." Matako had not reacted yet.

"It seems that there is only white yaksha left." Takechi Henpeita cross off Kawaki's name on the paper, and Katsura's name was also crossed off, leaving only the words Sakata Gintoki.

Takasugi did not say anything. He put away his sword, turned around, and walked into the cabin.

"Shinsuke-sama..." Matako wanted to say something, but in the end, she did not say it.

"Are you guys alright?" One of the ronin helped up the two companions who had just been kicked away by Kawaki.

"Ah, I'm fine..." The two ronin rubbed their chests and stood up.

...

"Ah, you are really ruthless, Takaji." Kawaki turned to look at the terrible sword wound on his back and murmured.

The moment he was kicked off the boat, Kawaki inserted the umbrella into the board of the boat and firmly grabbed the handle of the umbrella, so that he did not fall into the sea.

Kawaki grabbed the umbrella and with a little force, he jumped up and sat on the umbrella that was reduced to a stand.

"But what you said is right. I really can't hold on much longer..." As he spoke, Kawaki changed his posture, yawned, and hugged the umbrella to sleep.

...

When Shinpachi rushed to the shore with Kagura's phone, Kagura, who had just been thrown to the shore and passed out by Kawaki, also woke up.

However, the next second, the two of them saw the scene of Kawaki being cut in the back by Takasugi on the boat not far away... However, because the boat was on the side, the two of them did not see the scene of Kawaki being kicked off the boat.

"That is..." Shinpachi murmured.

"That bastard!" Kagura shouted angrily.

As she shouted, Kagura was about to charge at the ship again.

"Calm down, Kagura-chan!" Shinpachi firmly stopped Kagura, "The other party is the kind of person who can defeat Kawaki-san! It is better to go back first and let Gin-san know! "

"I want to avenge my little uncle!" Kagura roared, and at the same time, she broke free from Shinpachi and rushed straight to the ship.

Shinpachi stayed where he was for a long time before he finally made up his mind. He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and looked at Kagura who was far away, 'Wait for me! Kagura-chan! When I go back, I will definitely come back with Gin-san!'

Thinking of this, Shinpachi turned around and ran.

...

"Gin-san! Gin-san!" Shinpachi shouted as he rushed into Yorozuya. However, just as he entered, he saw an unfamiliar girl applying medicine to Gintoki.

"Hey, Shinpachi, what's wrong? Have you found Kagura?" Gintoki replied casually, then looked at his bandaged body, "That kick is really going to kill me..."

"Now is not the time to talk about this!" Shinpachi shouted.

"Kawaki-san... Kawaki-san, he..."

As he spoke, Shinpachi's tears fell.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Kawaki-san was... killed..." Shinpachi bit his lips and muttered.

"What nonsense are you saying? Even if someone dies, he won't die." Gintoki replied disdainfully.

"Kagura and I saw it with our own eyes!" Shinpachi roared, "On that ship, Kawaki-san, he... was..."

Hearing this, Gintoki's heart suddenly skipped a beat, "What's the date today?!"

"Eh?"

"So, didn't I already say? "What's the date today?!" Gintoki stood up and shouted at Shinpachi.

"15th, it will be 16th in a few minutes..." Shinpachi replied.

"That bastard! He really did it!" Gintoki was extremely angry at this time and without any explanation, he then grabbed the wooden sword to the side, put on his kimono, and rushed out.

"Gin-san, wait for me!" Shinpachi shouted and rushed out at the same time.

However, at this moment, Tetsuko stopped Shinpachi, "Um, can you wait a moment? I still have something to tell you about the truth about Benizakura."

"Anything like that can wait!" Shinpachi shouted, and then rushed out.

"At least take this with you," Tetsuko replied, and took out a sword from her back, "That kind of wooden sword can't resist Benizakura forged by my father, at least take this sword I made."

"Eh? Brother? You mean..." Shinpachi sensed that something was wrong.

"Let's talk as we walk. I'll take you there on a motorcycle." As she spoke, Tetsuko pulled Shinpachi along and walked out of Yorozuya.

...

At this time, on the other side. In Jouishishi's base camp, a group of Jouishishi from Katsura's faction gathered here. However, unlike usual, Katsura was not here today. Sitting in front of them was Elizabeth.

"Elizabeth-san, we have found out that Okada belongs to Takasugi's faction!" A Jouishishi said.

"He can even lay his hands on his former companions, that bastard Takasugi!" Another Jouishishi cursed.

"Let's go! Take revenge for Katsura-san!" A group of Jouishishi shouted.

[Be quiet, or wait for a while.]

Elizabeth raised his wooden board.

"But..." Before one of Jouishishi could finish, the door was suddenly opened.

A Jouishishi, who was in charge of monitoring, stumbled in.

[What's wrong?]

Elizabeth raised his wooden board.

"Just now, Lord White Yaksha rushed towards Takasugi's ship with a wooden sword. According to our scouts, he saw it on the shore... Lord Kawaki was on Takasugi's ship..."

"What? Not only Katsura-san, but even Kawaki-san..." In an instant, these Jouishishi were boiling.

"Does this Takasugi really not care about old relationships at all?"

"What are we waiting for Elizabeth-san! Let's go too!"

[Tidy up your equipment and come with me.]

Elizabeth stood up and raised his wooden board.

...

On the other side, Kagura once again slipped into Takasugi's house-shaped boat. It was not accurate to say that she had slipped.

"Where is that bastard?" Kagura roared as she sent another ronin flying, "Where is that man called Takaji"

At this time, Kagura was not in a good state. She had already been shot several times.

"Don't use that nickname to called Shinsuke-sama!" Matako cursed.

"I will definitely kill him-aru!" Kagura shouted and rushed to the cabin, "He should be here! Takaji, come out!"

However, when Kagura rushed into the cabin and looked at the thing in front of her, she was speechless. Although it was called a cabin, it was more like a factory.

There were hundreds of cylindrical glass tanks lying on the ground, all of them glowing pink.

"This is..." Kagura murmured. The next moment, Matako pointed two guns at Kagura's head.

"Since you saw this, you don't have to think about leaving." Matako's voice sounded behind Kagura.

...

"What? You said that Benizakura was created by your brother and handed over to Kiheitai" Shinpachi, who was sitting on the motorcycle, still found it hard to believe.

"Ah, to be honest, I don't know what my brother is thinking, but the so-called [Benizakura] is created for the original [Benizakura] forged when my father was alive. It's a mechanized anti-battleship weapon! Endowed with a kind of artificial intelligence called an [Electric Soul]. It lives like a parasite and takes over its wielder's body." Tetsuko explained.

"It even has the ability to record battles, analyze them and grow smarter. It is simply a living sword. Although I don't understand the purpose of my brother, if this technology falls into Kiheitai's hands, countless Benizakura will be created... when the time comes..."

"I really want to kill people now! For a broken sword, not only Katsura-san but even Kawaki-san..." At this time, Shinpachi's heart could only be described as grief and indignation.

However, just as he finished speaking, Shinpachi saw Jouishishi and Elizabeth, who were gathering on the side of the road.

"Elizabeth!" Shinpachi shouted.

...

In the house-shape ship that Kiheitai belonged to, Okada was currently sitting quietly in his own room.

Meanwhile, Matako and Takechi were on their way over.

"Takechi-senpai, how do we deal with that little girl?" Matako asked.

"Sure enough, sportswear is better."

"Are you still thinking about this? There should be a limit to your lolicon habit!" Matako scolded, "Moreover, I didn't expect that little girl to see that scene. It's already an irreconcilable enemy relationship. You should also stop!"

Just as Matako finished speaking, the two of them had already walked to the door of Okada's room.

The two of them directly opened the door and walked in. At this moment, Okada was applying medicine to himself. It had to be said that the two kicks Kawaki gave him were too heavy.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking so miserable?" Matako mocked, "Could it be that you have encountered some difficult opponent? You brought [Benizakura] out without permission and even ended up in such a miserable state..."

"Haha," Okada put on his clothes, "If you were facing that lord, you wouldn't be much better than me. It was just a few simple moves... However, I have already obtained an incredible amount of data. Next time, I will definitely..."

Before Okada could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Takechi Henpeit, "If you are referring to Lord Kawaki, you can give up on this idea. If you want to say why..."

"He has already been killed by Shinsuke-sama!" Matako added with a face full of worship.

"Oh my, how did you get rid of him?" Okada's gloomy voice sounded, and he mocked, "Using that kind of sinister method, this is not the Lord Shinsuke I know. But what a pity, I still want to be able to fight that monster again~"
