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

Isamu Kondo raised his head.

Zuo Village looked a little decadent, but he was still much better than Kondo Isamu.

"...You just walked in like this? Chatting with a prisoner like me?"

Isamu Kondo asked with an expressionless face.

"Don't tell me you don't want to drink." Zuo Cun pulled out the bottle of wine and threw a wine bowl in front of Kondo Yu.

"...Of course I want to!" Kondo Isamu rolled over and sat up, grabbed the wine bowl, and stretched it out in front of Zuo Cun, "Pour wine!"

The two looked into each other's eyes and smiled in unison.

Zuo Cun poured wine for the two of them, and the sides of the bowls collided, making a crisp sound.

The movements of the two people were almost synchronized, and when they raised their heads, the wine in the wine bowl was drank in one go.

The two of them didn't speak, they just drank.

One bowl, two bowls, three bowls...

After drinking a bottle, Zuo Cun ran out and brought a box.

One bottle, two bottles, three bottles...

Whether it was sweat or tears, fell on the floor of the prison from their faces.

"Do you know why I came to you Kondo, do you know why I want to drink with you?"

Zuo Cun lowered his head, and there were continuous drops of water on the ground.

Kondo looked at Zuo Village, his face flushed, and he said nothing.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to fight, it's not a fight, it's not a fight... But I have to kill you, I have to kill you..."

Kondo drank another bowl of wine and hiccupped, unmoved by Zuo Cun's words.

"You are captured alive, I know how tortured and humiliated you will be, and your head will even be hung up for public display..."

"I can't take it, I can't take it!"

Zuo Cun poured himself a bowl of wine and raised his head to finish it.

Isamu Kondo suddenly burst out laughing.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha----"

"At the end of my life, I didn't expect to have to accept your charity!"

He took off his shirt, exposing his neck.

"Come and chop!"

Zuo Cun stood up silently.

Crane unsheathed.

"Goodbye, Kondo."

Zheng——

......

Zuo Village buried Kondo's body on the outskirts of Koshu Town.

Xixiang Shenglong didn't ask too much about this.

Zuo Village added the last handful of soil to Kondo's grave, feeling that his eyes were dry.

He turned his head back to the barracks and found Shenglong Xixiang.

"Next, no matter what I do, I hope...you don't bother."

Xixiang Shenglong looked at the man who was about to be destroyed and nodded silently.

Zuo Village turned and left.

"After this action, I will stop my activities."

He looked at Xixiang Shenglong: "...don't let Longma down."

Zuo Cun walked out of the room and jumped high.

His target...was Edo.

Zuo Cun's departure did not bring any changes.

After the Battle of Koshu Shinshu, the bones of the shogunate's main fighting faction were finally shattered by the new government army.

On March [-], after intense negotiations, the new government negotiated with the remnants of the shogunate.

In the end, the two sides reached an agreement.

Edo Castle, opened without blood.

The shogunate unconditionally handed over all warships and weapons to the new government army. At the same time, it also decided the fate of the head of the shogunate, General Tokugawa Keiki.

Tokugawa Keiki will be deported to Mito for "seclusion".

In fact, it is house arrest.

Sitting in the carriage heading for the Mito Domain, Tokugawa Keiki's eyes were slack and he didn't know where he was looking.

"ended......"

"The Tokugawa family...it's over..."

He sat in his seat, covering his face with his hands.

"260 years of glory, 260 years of glory—"

He shouted hoarsely.

"It's all over..."

The voice recovered slightly, and Tokugawa Keiki lay down on the seat.

Hand over Edo Castle and send all the weapons and equipment.

The Tokugawa shogunate has perished.

Even if he is the head of the Tokugawa family, he has already lost it. The new head of the Tokugawa family is called the Tokugawa family.

He is now just an abandoned tool.

"Yeah... the shogunate, it's over."

Zheng——

The carriage that Tokugawa Keiki was riding in suddenly sank, as if it had fallen to the ground.

Then, there was a scream from outside.

There are people and there are horses.

"What's wrong? What happened?!" Tokugawa Keiji was taken aback and stood up in a panic, but suddenly felt the hairs rise, and squatted subconsciously.

Zheng——

The carriage was cut in half.

Zuo Cun kicked away the top half that had been chopped off and looked at Tokugawa Keiki, who was squatting on the ground.

Tokugawa Qingxi raised his head and looked at Zuo Village.

"...Are you here to assassinate me?" Tokugawa Keiki's voice was filled with uncontrollable fear.

Zuo Cun shrugged expressionlessly: "Isn't that obvious?"

Tokugawa Keiki looked around.

The dozens of guards who were casual about him have all been killed, even the six horses pulling three cars.

The only living people left were him and Zuo Cun Anuo in front of him.

Tokugawa Qingxi sat down in his seat.

"It's useless for you to kill me now. I'm neither the shogun's general Zhengyi, nor the head of the Tokugawa family. I'm just an outcast who is about to be placed under house arrest."

"...Abandoned..." Zuo Cun's eyes dimmed for a moment.

"I know, but... I still want to kill you." Zuo Cun's hand climbed onto the hilt of Pheasant Feather.

"Kill it." Tokugawa Keiki lay down on the seat, with a hint of relief in his tone... "Take my last thing too."

"The ghost-killing samurai who assassinated the former shogun, Tokugawa Ishigeru, Yuki Zanzuo Village Anno."

"Come and take my last thing too."

"...Ah, that's natural."

Zheng——

Tokugawa Keiki's head rolled to the ground, his eyes widening in anger.

Zuo Village picked up Tokugawa Keiji's head and looked at the head that had lost its vitality.

"..."

"puff--"

"Pfft!"
