Chief Okita in Taisho

On the way back, Okita Souji and Dazai Osamu reunited with California Kiyomitsu.

The team members who were in a hurry to find someone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the three of them back.

"Don't trouble people!"

"If you're so weak, don't run around. I thought you were eaten by ghosts."

"Forget about being eaten by a ghost...it's a little easier."

Xiang Tai scolded: "I think you are here to seek death!"

Why do some people just have no clue about their own strength!

"I really don't know how you survived until now, should I praise you for your life or what?"

Osamu Dazai hid his face behind Souji Okita so as not to burst into laughter.

Okita Souji shrugged slightly, and was about to say something, when there was commotion behind the crowd, they automatically made way.

"Yes... who is it?"

The visitor was more than two meters tall, wearing cassock, with Buddhist beads hanging between his fingers. Although he was blind in both eyes, he gave people the pressure of a mountain.

The newcomers looked at him, not even daring to breathe.

The two persons in charge of the final selection walked behind him respectfully.

"!"

The members who knew more reacted.

"Is it Lord Yanzhu from the Demon Slayer Squad?!"

——The rock pillar that claims to be the strongest pillar of the Ghost Slayer Squad, Sorrowful Islet Xingming!

Everyone's eyes were filled with ecstasy, curiosity and scrutiny.

Why did the rock pillar appear at the final selection site? !

What is he doing here?

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Beimingyu Xingming walked to Mr. Okita, and the two chatted very naturally.

"Namo Amitabha."

"Long time no see, Mr. Seta."

"How many times have I told you, you can just call me Soujiro," Director Okita smiled and waved his hands, "Brother Beimingyu, you don't have to be so outrageous!"

Crowd: ? ? ?

What's going on, why does this person know the rock pillar? !

"Do not……"

Yanzhu had a respectful attitude and was about to say something when Director Okita's smile widened: "I came here specially, thank you for your hard work."

Everyone: These two people's fields——

Potential!all!force!enemy!

"...No," Beiming Yu Xingming said slowly, "Thanks to Brother Seta being here in the town, it's a blessing that everyone is safe and sound."

"Town field?!"

Xiangtai couldn't hold back anymore: "Obviously I killed the ghosts!"

He glanced at Sato, and added reluctantly: "This guy also helped a little."

Yoshiyuki Tomioka opened his mouth, but before he could speak, he was dragged back by Satoshi.

Don't make trouble at this time.

"?"

Beimingyu Xingming glanced at everyone with a puzzled look, then his eyes fell on Okita Souji, and he understood, "Didn't you tell them, Brother Seta?"

It's still the same as before.

will play.

"What are you talking about, why did you tell me?!" Xiangta yelled, "What are you hiding from me, I have worked so hard to protect you——"

Beiming Yu Xingming clasped his hands together, and there was a crisp sound.Shota was shocked.

"Don't be rude."

"—This is Demon Slayer Squad Hara Hana, His Excellency Seta Soujiro."

The sound fell like a boulder on everyone's hearts.

what--? !

All jaws dropped.

Xiangtai directly petrified, shattered, turned into ashes, and passed away with the wind...

style? !

style? !Is it a style? !

Also, what happened to the "original"? !

Xiangta's face turned red and white.

He remembered what he had said before.

——"As long as I show my true strength, I can knock down the style with a flick of a finger!"

——"Let him beg for mercy like shit, and give me the title of strongest column!"

No wonder!No wonder!

Where does this guy go to the theater? !

"Yo."

Director Okita smiled and said: "It seems that I haven't forgotten what I said before to 'put me down'."

"Of course!"

Xiangta thought about it, then frowned again, "I still don't quite believe that you are Zhu..."

Perhaps because Okita Souji was a beautiful boy who was weak and coughed up blood before his death, even if he is reborn, he still has a fragile and fragile temperament lingering around him, his smile is like a cloud of smoke, and it will dissipate before he is touched.

And Zhu wanted to kill ghosts with flesh and blood, and his temperament didn't match.

It's almost the same for a big and tall guy like Beimingyu Xingming!

"Huh? I'm worried..."

Shota looked at Souji Okita and said while taking the knife from Osamu Dazai, his hair exploded: "What are you going to do?!"

The moment he received the knife, Okita Souji's momentum changed suddenly.

At the same time, Beimingyu Xingming also made a move——

The petals and the meteor hammer each drew a semicircle, protecting everyone in the circle, offsetting the full moon blade swung from the forest.

The smoke cleared.

Director Okita's eyes were already dangerous: "Are you finally willing to come out?"

A figure emerged from the darkness.

Winding one.

After receiving Mumai Onimai Tsuji's blood, he became stronger than before!

The person in charge of the Ghost Killing Squad said:

"Others, please evacuate with me."

"This final selection ends here, as long as those who are alive are considered to have passed."

Although the little ghost heads are full of curiosity about this battle, they also know that this is not something they can participate in.

When Shota passed by Osamu Dazai, he smiled and pointed at his face: "It's swollen."

Why are some people just not sure about their strength.

"you!"

"As soon as possible." The person in charge urged.

Osamu Dazai looked at Souji Okita.

Only three people, Okita Souji, California Qingguang, and Beimingyu Xingming, will be left at the scene of the battle.

Sensing his gaze, Souji Okita showed a reassuring smile.

"fine."

"..."

"Let's go."

"..."

Osamu Dazai gave him one last look, followed by Yoshiyuki Tomioka and Sato who followed the team and left.

So--

Director Okita looked at Hei Si Mou.

The sound of the wind is roaring.

The battle is imminent.

"Brother Sorrowful Island."

Director Okita calmly said: "Ordinary weapons won't work against this guy. Next, you have to change your weapon into a 'Heren' and your field of vision into a 'transparent world'."

Even if he didn't understand for a while, Beimingyu Xingming still nodded seriously.

Just like trusting the lord, he trusted Mr. Seta unconditionally.

The opponent is the one who has carried the entire ghost killing team.

Even now it's gone.

"!"

Beimingyu Xingming suddenly discovered that the surroundings turned into a scene of the underworld beside the Santu River.

He looked around.

here is……?

"As for how to change..."

"Maybe it's 'endure the pain and raise awareness'."

After finishing speaking, Souji Okita rushed towards the first string.

California Qingguang followed closely behind and took cover.

Hei Si Mou raised his sword.After feeling the breathing method of the other party, the cells of the whole body trembled uncontrollably, as if the fear engraved deep in the cells had been awakened.

He only had this kind of situation with Fate for a while!

This is not Breath of the Flower!This is, this is—the breath of the sun! ! !

This person still has reservations? !

and!

Why - after Ming Ming Yuan died, he and Lord Wu Mi killed all the Rihu passers-by, but this person can Rihu? !

What's even more frightening is that he couldn't get in touch with Master Wu Mi.

The multiple fears and rages also made Heishimu unleash all his abilities, and the battle was extremely fierce, with the Meteor Hammer, Moon Blade, and Rihuo Huoguang shining brightly together.

One side of the night sky was dyed with fire clouds.

That being said, the battle did not devolve into a tug of war.

The damage caused by the sun call, there is no room for struggle.

Seeing the separation of Hei Si Mou's body, and after confirming that it would collapse soon, Director Okita put his sword back into its sheath, took a long breath, and stretched his wrist.

"call……"

Compared with day call, flower call and water call are more convenient.

Souji Okita threw out the needle and collected a dose of ghost blood from the first string.

Hiding in the tree and shivering, only the newspaper reported:

"Complete the mission: kill the one on the string."

"Salvation value: +30000."

Okita Souji and California Kiyomitsu smiled at each other.

Thirty thousand, let's start!

"Yuanyi..."

"Tell me...Yuanyi..."

A small voice came into the ears of the two of them.

Landing on the head among the flowers on the other side, the pair of pupils engraved with "Shangxian" and "One" stared at Souji Okita, as if looking at someone through him.

"What on earth am I... born into this world..."

"..."

Souji Okita sighed in his heart, remembering the 10-minute "Initial Sunshine Swordsman" reward he got on the train.

"Confirm use."

"Setian-kun is so gentle," Qingguang Qingguang couldn't help but sigh, "It's obviously an enemy..."

He raised his eyes slightly, with a look of nostalgia.

"An Ding and I have talked before. The strength of Okita-kun lies not only in swordsmanship, but also in the smile that can infect the people around him, and the gentleness that is considerate to others..."

And—the strength to spend every day with optimism even if you are terminally ill.

"yes."

Okita Souji smiled.

"thank you all."

In the void, a samurai in a crimson jacket and hakama appeared.

With a calm expression on his face, he nodded slightly to Souji Okita, and squatted down in front of the winding one.

"Brother."

"It's you……"

"Brother."

Ji Guoyuan repeated again, and said calmly: "I'm sorry, Yuanyi can't answer my brother's doubts."

"!"

Hei Si Mou's body collapsed, and the rustling sound was extremely lonely.

Everyone should be unique.

Shrouding yourself in the shadow of others, caring too much, being jealous, you will only lose yourself in the end.

Emotionally, Ji Guoyuan will shed tears for his brother Stranger, but intellectually, he will draw his sword at his brother who has turned into a ghost.

This is the inevitable end.

All he can do now is to silently watch his brother walk to the end.

"Ah yes."

The two separated brothers couldn't be disturbed, Mr. Okita muttered and looked around, "Brother Beimingyu...Brother Beimingyu——"

Beimingyu Xingming is 19 years old and has joined the ghost killing team for a year. Although he is strong but inexperienced, he was seriously injured in the battle just now, but fortunately he has no limbs.

And through this battle, his strength has also improved by leaps and bounds.

"Ah, I found it!"

A tall man is standing by the river.

Santu River.

"Brother Beimingyu, be careful not to fall into the river... what are you looking at?"

Okita Souji happily walked over, followed the other party's gaze and looked towards the other side, his face became silent.

Outlines could be vaguely seen in the gray mist, they were seven children.

"teacher……"

"Teacher...teacher!"

The fog dissipated a little, and their voices gradually became clearer.

"Please don't come here, teacher!"

"Before the teacher goes back, we want to apologize to the teacher about that day."

"We hurt the teacher...but we really don't want to escape!"

Finally, the smoke cleared.

The faces of the seven children were clearly revealed, and they were all children that Beimingyu Xingming had taken care of in the temple.

"I thought the teacher couldn't see, and I had to protect the teacher, so I wanted to go outside and use farm tools as weapons."*

"I was going to find someone to help."*

They cried and explained.

"I'm also very sorry about kicking Yue Yue out, but there are reasons for these."

"It would have been nice if it had been explained clearly at the time."

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..."

Ahhh.

So this is ah……

After a long silence, Beimingyu Xingming said, "I'm the one... I'm sorry for not being able to protect you well."

"Please don't say such things, teacher."

"Please live to be a hundred years old!"

"Don't worry, no matter how long it takes, everyone will be waiting for you."

"Because everyone likes Teacher the most!"

The fog gathered again, and the figures of the children disappeared.

The petals on the other side drift away quietly with the river.

Beiming Yu Xingming put his hands together and expressed his final condolences.

"Namo Amitabha."

The cloud that had weighed on my heart for a year dissipated.

Chief Commander Chongtian observed his words and expressions, leaned over to look at him, and said with a smile: "It's time to untie the knot, Brother Beimingyu."

a year ago--

The ghost broke into the temple and immediately killed the four people, and Beiming Yu Xingming wanted to protect the remaining four people, but except for the youngest Shadai, the other three escaped.Beimingyu Xingming always thought that the three felt that they were weak and blind, and did not trust him to protect them.

Beimingyu Xingming risked his life to protect Shadai.However, due to his young age and excessive fright, Sha Dai failed to explain clearly in front of the adults who rushed to him, instead causing Bei Ming Yu Xing Ming to be sentenced to prison.

Okita Souji arrived, but it was too late.

He only had time to rescue Beiming Yu Xingming from prison and bring him to the Ghost Killing Squad.

……

"I didn't expect to have such an unexpected harvest." Okita Souji sighed.

"Yes."

Beimingyu Xingming couldn't help wondering if Seta-kun asked him to come here on purpose.

After all, in the fight just now, the opponent alone was enough to deal with it.

"Has Seta-kun seen any old people here?"

"..."

Okita Souji paused for breath.

California Qingguang glanced at his master worriedly.

"I... haven't seen it before."

Souji Okita laughed again, but this time he was a little more lonely.

At the beginning, the Shinsengumi killed many people, and many people became ghosts without knowing it.

He killed ghosts, not just to get redemption value, to return to the end of the Bakumatsu——

It can also be regarded as representing the Shinsengumi and making some small atonements.

Even if he did it again, he would still do it.

In order to protect the ideal.

Beimingyu Xingming did not speak.

Blind, he has always used the "mind eye" to see people, but he can't see through the people around him.

Seta-kun, when will the wound in your heart heal?

……

Mindful of the situation outside, Beimingyu Xingming left the other side space first.

Jiguo Brothers' side also happened to be over, Okita Souji and California Kiyomitsu walked over.

Ji Guoyuan got up together and looked at Caizang.

"How much time is left?"

"5 minutes."

Ji Guoyuan nodded, turned to Okita Souji, and asked, "Where did you learn the Rihu sword technique?"
