章 234: If You Want to Know Sister Izumi’s Last Wish, Go and Listen to “Don’t Give Up”...

'You should add some more!!' Gintoki stared at Zenzou with his teeth bared, 'Did you really hear what that idiot just said? What Hot Pot Shogun? What the hell is that?! I've never heard of such a program!'

'Calm down! Gin-san!' Shinpachi, who was at the side, gestured with his eyes, 'Perhaps Kawaki-san just wanted to say "The Unfettered Shogun".'

Gintoki glared at Shinpachi, 'Those aren't the real Shogun! The one on our side is the real Shogun! What should we do?! Maybe after this group date, the Shogun will really debut with Zura and that gorilla! Maybe it will become the first in Edo!'

At this moment, Kawaki spoke again.

"In fact, we are currently participating in a group date now," Kawaki explained, "A gorilla was invited to perform in the ring of fire."

Katsura and Shige Shige showed an expression of "I see" at the same time.

"Wait a minute!" Kondo could not help but shout, "Why are they here for a group date, and I'm here to perform a ring of fire?!"

"You should also be a little more clear-headed," Kawaki seemed a little helpless, "After all, we can't have a group date in the zoo, right?"

"Has my existence been identified as a gorilla?" Kondo shouted angrily, "I think I can still struggle! Don't give up on me so easily, bastard!"

"Don't give up..." Kawaki pointed to his chin and murmured. A moment later, Kawaki suddenly thought of something. He looked at Kondo with a touched face and said with tears in his eyes, "So you're a Zard fan too!"

Several blue veins popped up on Kondo's face in an instant.

Gintoki/ Shinpachi: Who will do it? Who's going to stuff this guy's head into the ceiling for me!!

"Then the next segment will be karaoke!" Kawaki stood up and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. Then, he looked at the trio who had also stood up and said, "Next, let our new Zard group sing "Don't Give Up!"

Gintoki/ Shinpachi: Did you join in the end?!!

Shinpachi: Oh no, Gin-san, Kawaki-san has become a leader unknowingly. What should we do?

Gintoki: I don't know! Who knows what he is thinking? I don't understand at all!

Shinpachi: And we jumped over to karaoke without introducing ourselves! Can the so-called group date really be like this?! Is it really okay?!

Gintoki: I already said don't ask me!!!

...

A song came from the new group composed of Kawaki, Shige Shige, Katsura, and Kondo. After the song "Don't Give Up" was over, the rest of the people sitting at the table, except Tsukuyo, Otae, and Kagura with earplugs, were all lying on the table.

"Is it finally over..." Gintoki lay on the table and murmured, "What do you mean don't give up? I can't help but want to give up my life several times..."

"I didn't expect that although Kawaki-san looked quite reliable," Shinpachi lay on the table helplessly, "I didn't expect him to be such tone deaf! There isn't a single word in tune!"

"Hey, Shinpachi, you are the least qualified to say this." Gintoki scoffed expressionlessly, "Your level is on par with him!"

At this time, after the four people on the stage played a song, they were now excitedly hugging each other's shoulders with tears in their eyes.

"I... am so touched!" Kawaki cried out, "We are a natural combination!"

"That makes sense!" Katsura was also full of tears, "Maybe we were born to perform together!"

Kondo also held back her tears and said a few words unclearly, "Roar! Roar! Roar!"

"Katsura-san! Kawaki-san!" Shige Shige was also touched, "And Gorilla-san!"

Then, the four of them looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

"Alright!" Kawaki raised his hand and shouted, "Let the four of us inherit Sister Izumi's last wish, just like this song, "Don't give up!" Let's work together to save the hearts of the people of Edo!"

"Before that, save your head! Bastard!" Gintoki stood up in anger and kicked Kawaki away, "And Sister Izumi never had such a last wish!"

"No, there is!" Kawaki stood up and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. Then, he retorted loudly, "This song "Don't Give Up" has completely conveyed the last wishes of Sister Izumi to us! Don't you think so?!"

"Yes!" The three people who had lost their memories replied with tears in their eyes.

"What the hell!" Gintoki couldn't help but curse, "You guys should stop before you go too far! Believe it or not, I will throw you off the boat one by one! You bastards!"

"You're the one!" Kawaki retorted, "Those who don't even know about Sister Izumi's last wish should listen to "Don't Give Up" a hundred times before coming back!"

"Yes." The three people who had lost their memories nodded at the same time.

"You guys..." Gintoki could no longer hold back his anger and wanted to rush up and throw them out of the window.

However, Shinpachi quickly hugged Gintoki from behind, "Calm down! Gin-san! This is not the time to do this! We are still participating in a group date!"

"Stop joking! If I don't throw these guys out, I won't be able to resolve my hatred!" Gintoki shouted, "With them here, it's impossible to hold a group date properly!"

"At least, Gin-san, you have to grab the identity of the group leader!" Shinpachi suggested in a low voice, "If Gin-san were to give the order, they would be obedient, right?"

Hearing this, Gintoki snorted and then turned to look at the crowd. He said, "I have no choice. Anyway, let me lead today's group date!"

"Ara, I didn't expect that Gin-san would take the initiative to take charge of such a troublesome matter..." Otae covered her mouth and made a face of disbelief.

"Do you think I want to!" Gintoki gritted his teeth and looked at Kawaki and the three people with amnesia, "If not for these guys, how could I do such a thing! In short, forget everything that happened just now. Let's start with the self-introduction first. I am Sakata Gintoki, 27 years old. I run Yorozuya in Kabukicho."

"I am Shimura Shinpachi..."

"I am Hattori Zenzou," When it was Zenzou's turn to introduce himself, Zenzou very coquettishly touched his messy hair, "Don't look at me like this; I can be considered a young master of a big family. My family was once a famous family that served Shogun."

[Name is Elizabeth, please take care of me!] Elizabeth raised the wooden board.

When it was Kawaki's turn with the amnesia trio, the four of them looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

"I'm the lead singer of the new ZARD, Kou!" Kawaki stood up and shouted into the microphone.

"I'm the bass player, Demolition Katsura!"

"I am the guitar player, Gorilla!"

"Drummer, Shogun!"

"Are you still continuing this nonsense?" Gintoki shouted.

Tsukuyo, who had changed into a professional suit at some point, had a kizeru in her mouth. She adjusted her glasses and said, "I am the manager, Tsukuyo!"

"You too?!" Gintoki was on the verge of collapse. He pointed at Tsukuyo and shouted, "When did you join their group?! Agent? What kind of agent is that? Did you get kicked in the head by a horse too?!"

However, just as he finished speaking, several kunai stabs on Gintoki's forehead.

"As I said," Kawaki waved his hand and said casually, "There will definitely be someone who agrees with our dream."

"Shut up for me——!!!" Gintoki raised his head and cursed.

All in all, this unpleasant self-introduction was finally over.

...

"Gin-san, what should we do next?" Shinpachi asked Gintoki in a low voice. "After the self-introduction, both sides did not speak. Except for Zenzou, who had been flirting with the ugly girls from the beginning, no one else spoke!"

"Next is that!" Gintoki said with a serious face.

"That?" Shinpachi was a little confused, "What is that? Stop saying things I don't understand."

"Don't worry!" As he said that, Gintoki looked at Kawaki, who was teaching his experience to the three people who had lost their memories and said, "Even if we have reached this point because of that guy, he will understand "that" and won't make a fool of himself!"

"So, what exactly is "that"?" Shinpachi was puzzled again.

Then, Kawaki finally finished explaining to the three people who had lost their memories. Then, he turned to look at Gintoki, and the two nodded at the same time.

"I keep feeling like I'm going to get angry. These two guys..." Shinpachi muttered to himself, "Why do they seem to have discussed something without anyone knowing..."

Afterward, except for Shinpachi, the other men present put the chopsticks in front of them and then began to look at the girls on the opposite side carefully.

"That... Could it be..." Shinpachi finally reacted at this time.

'That's right! It's that!' Gintoki nodded, 'This is the highest profound meaning of group date!'

'I see!' Shinpachi nodded heavily, 'That is, the man points his chopsticks at the woman he is interested in, and the rest of the boys do assist! do you mean this?! Gin-san!'

'As expected of you, Shinpachi! It was the first time you participated in a group date, and you understood this kind of rule that only men know!' Gintoki looked at Shinpachi with a hint of gratification in his eyes.

'I understand!' Shinpachi nodded heavily and then looked at Shige Shige, who was thinking with his head lowered, 'It's just a pretense, right?! The purpose is to understand the type that the Shogun likes. We will be the assistants, right?!'

Gintoki nodded calmly.
