In Order to Become a Heroic Spirit, I Had to Do Things in History

But now, Takasugi passed away, Ryoma was stabbed, and it was already very difficult for Kido Junichiro to maintain the Changzhou domain. Zuo Village only had one-sided contact with Ryoma all the year round, and had no direct subordinates, so Zuo Village's meaning could not be passed on at all.

The alliance of four has collapsed.

This made Zuo Village a little desperate.

"Ryoma..."

He muttered softly.

Standing up, Zuo Cun made a decision.

Go to Junichiro Kido, give him the edict, and then go to Kyoto and Osaka by yourself to do what you do best.

"No matter what...you can't sit still."

"Ryoma, you won't die in vain."

......

After Zuo Village went to Changzhou and handed the edict to Junichiro Kido, he disappeared alone.

His target is Osaka.

He wants to investigate clearly to see what Tokugawa Keiji is thinking.

It was announced that the world would hand over the power to the Emperor Meiji, and the shogunate was dissolved.

But in fact, the shogunate is still operating in an orderly manner.

Nothing has changed.

Zuo Cun realized that this might be a zz fraud.

He went to Kyoto first and met the Emperor Meiji in secret.

After seeing Zuo Cun, the anxious Meiji couldn't wait to ask: "What should I do now, Mr. Zuo Cun."

"Muren, you are the emperor now, and you must be polite." Zuo Cun frowned as he looked at the flustered young man, "Although you and I meet in private, you shouldn't be so flustered."

"I see..." Muren sighed, "But this question has indeed become a problem for me."

"Don't be impatient, I'm a little confused about the question you asked." Zuo Cun touched his chin with blood in his eyes, "Tokugawa Qingxi, I am afraid that he is not willing to return his rights to the imperial court."

"So he... took advantage of it."

"But that also means...he's finally lost his head."

"So now, what should I do?" Meiji asked with a frown.

"...In this way, Muren, wait another month, after the New Year's Day, if Tokugawa Keiki still doesn't dissolve the shogunate."

"I issued an edict and ordered him to return it. This is also... an ultimatum."

"If he denies your edict, it means... a complete tear in the face."

"I'm going to Osaka now and lurking beside him."

"When necessary...I don't mind another shogun's life on my hands."

"after all......"

"This bastard has tarnished my best friend's dream."

There was a trace of irritability and blood in Zuo Cun's eyes.

Muren trembled involuntarily as he looked at Zuo Cun, who exuded a gloomy and cold aura.

At this time, Zuo Cun, because of Ryoma's death, has already lost some of his control.

===Chapter 410 Chapter [-] I can’t go back===

Osaka.

The Shinsengumi was ordered, and the location of the operation was moved from Kyoto to Osaka.

And stopped all external activities.

Isamu Kondo was ordered to... rest and recuperate.

Saito sat alone on the steps, looking into the distance with a confused look.

The wound left by the battle with Zuo Village last year did not bring any sequelae to Saito, but left a scar on his face, which made Saito look no longer as kind as before, but looked fierce.

Saito didn't feel anything.

Compared with the physical pain, the disappointment brought by the mind made Saito more painful.

He saw no hope.

Following Kondo and Hijikata, I chose to join the Shinsengumi when I found it interesting.

But the road ahead... seems to have come to an end.

In the Tenmanya incident two days ago, Saito beheaded two enemies numbly, watching his teammates get injured, but he was indifferent.

...what are we doing?

Soji Okita recuperates in a corner of Osaka, while Nagura Shinpachi and Kondo are separated from Germany.

Is this still... Shinsengumi?

"Hey Saito."

The familiar voice of the vice-commander of Oni came from behind.

Hijikata Toshio threw a gun at Saito.

Saito caught it in a panic and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Hijikata Suishan's expression was lost and serious: "Integrate your squad, there is action."

"My actions?"

"The action of the Shinsengumi." Hijikata Toshizo sighed, "The order from Tokugawa Keiji has come, we are going to set off now, and we will reach Fushimi in half a month, and we will be stationed there."

Saito was stunned: "...is there going to be a war?"

Tufang nodded and turned around.

"Two 10 minutes, organize your team and pack your personal belongings."

"Before dark... go."

......

The New Year, in tension and silence, passed quietly.

This year's New Year's Day, even in Sensoji Temple, no bells ring.

Isamu Kondo has led the Shinsengumi to Fushimi, but the process has not been smooth.

On the way, they met the remnants of the Royal Tomb Guards, and the Shinsengumi exchanged fire with them. Kondo was hit by a stray bullet in the fire and injured his shoulder.

Isama Kondo was sitting alone in his temporary office with a map of the Fushimi area in front of him.

He knew in his heart that Tokugawa Qingxi did not want to give up his position.

So, war is coming.

With a sigh, Kondo Isamu rubbed the center of his eyebrows.

"Work even if you're injured... You're a good director, Kondo."

A voice sounded behind Kondo.

"Why, the person who assassinated General Tokugawa Ishigeru also came to assassinate a little guy like me?"

This voice is very familiar, so familiar that Kondo Isamu can recognize it at once.

"...I didn't come to kill you." The visitor sighed slightly, pulled a stool from Kondo's room, and sat down.

"I know...but you shouldn't come to see me." Kondo slowly turned around and looked at the man sitting in his room, with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, "Zuo village."

Zuamura and Kondo looked at each other.

"Inoue is dead."

"...I know, I went to see him."

"Because you died."

"..."

Zuo Village was speechless.

"But he doesn't blame you." Kondo shook his head.

"Although this explanation sounds weak, but... I have to kill Tokugawa Ishigeru. This is the current situation and the choice I made." Zuo Cun held his forehead.

"So why did you come here, shouldn't you be in your old nest, in the Satsuma domain of the Changzhou domain to prepare for the war?" Kondo asked with a smile.

"...There is no one to trust in that place." Zuo Cun's eyes were filled with despair, "Although that place was built by me, Ryoma, Takasugi, and Katsura, but... ."

"I can't go back."

He let out a long sigh.

With the loss of military power, Zuo Village has no substantial subordinates in Satsuma.

When they were with Ryoma originally, they both felt that with each other's talents, they would be omnipotent.

But ah...

But ah...

I can't go back.

Zuo Village could only tell Saigo Shenglong that he had colluded with Meiji.

Even if I can't go back, I will fulfill your dream, Ryoma.

Both were silent.

"What, how can you be more pitiful than me?" Kondo Isamu laughed twice.
