Tennis Shinsengumi's Blood Dance Sakura

Atobe left Ninzuzu to clean up the battlefield and deal with the arrested members of the Banyi faction, while he himself went to appease the emperor first!Cilang was fine, but suffered a slight injury.Atobe asked Feng and Anato to accompany him to rest.

The emperor was furious, and the ministers were terrified, and ordered to severely punish all the barbarians.Atobe agreed, and said a few words of comfort, and did not leave until the emperor's anger subsided.

It was already night when we returned to the mansion.People from various feudal clans have already arranged for them to leave.In order not to arouse the suspicion of Serizawa Kamo and others, Tezuka asked everyone in Seigaku to go back to stand by, and only he stayed and waited for news from Atobe.

When Atobe came back, Xiang Ri, who was in charge of the investigation, had already identified the identities of Nioh and others.

Nioh Masaharu and Kirihara Akaya are now Maki, Izumi Mori and Kusaka Genzui. They are both disciples of Changzhou Yoshida Shoin Private School.Yoshida Shoin was killed for assassinating important members of the shogunate a few years ago, and his disciples, under the leadership of Shinsaku Takasugi and Kogoro Katsura, set up the Raiders, which was an anti-shogunate team composed mainly of lower-level people and samurai The organization has grown rapidly in the past two years.The Banyi faction in the capital is also inextricably linked with them.

"That's it!" Atobe mused, he didn't expect that after crossing, he would become enemies with Lihai's people in battle, which is really surprising.But looking at their skills, it seems that they are all masters with unique skills that surpass ordinary people. There is another powerful enemy on the road ahead!

At this moment, Xiangri received news from Edo that the British embassy under construction was set on fire by exiles, and the people who set the fire were the captains of the Raiders, Shinsaku Takasugi and Kogoro Katsura.

Atobe nodded, but said nothing.If Takasugi and Gui are also dispatched for today's assassination, the situation may still be unknown.

Screened everyone away, leaving myself alone in the dark room.He leaned back on the seat and rubbed his forehead vigorously.For the first time, he felt exhausted physically and mentally.After appeasing the emperor, he had to accept the censure of the minister.As for the shogunate, of course the general would not say anything, but those ministers obviously thought that today's incident had disgraced the shogunate, and all the responsibilities should be attributed to him, the guardian of the capital.Besides apologizing, he had nothing to say.

Since he was a child, he was a young master who was admired and admired by countless people. He was the supreme emperor of the Ice Emperor. He had never been so angry.But right now he doesn't have any capital to be proud of, he has to be patient!If you can't turn the tide and save the crisis, all the arrogance will be ridiculous conceit, just the butt of ridicule by others, without any meaning.

Since time travel, he has been immersed in official duties day and night, current affairs, history, diplomacy, military, all things he must learn as soon as possible.He didn't want any mistakes in his decision-making, and at this moment, every mistake was related to the trend of the country and the fate of the shogunate, and even the lives of countless people.

In the darkness, a hand touched Atobe's shoulder, and handed him a glass of red wine.

"Tezuka?!" Atobe raised his head, with a look of surprise on his face, "You haven't left yet?"

"Hmm!" That powerful hand patted his shoulder as silent comfort.

In the darkness, Atobe felt that his eye sockets were a little moist.In front of everyone, he must wear a gorgeous mask, even in front of the Ice Emperor, because he is their emperor, their pride, and he must not show his weak side.And in front of this person, maybe there is no need for that?

"Atobe, what are you going to do with those people in Higa?" Tezuka sat down on the chair next to Atobe.

A trace of disappointment flashed across Atobe's face. It turned out that this person didn't stay for him. It seemed that he was being sentimental. "The opinions of the imperial court and the shogunate are to severely punish and beheaded to show the public!"

"You're not really planning to do this, are you?" Tezuka stood up from his chair.In the darkness, he saw a lonely and sad light flashing in Atobe's eyes, which was not the Atobe he was familiar with.

"Aren't you going to intercede for them?" Atobe immediately smiled unruly. He didn't want to expose his real and weak side to a person who didn't care about him. He didn't know why he was always worrying about gains and losses recently. He thought maybe it was Are you too tired?But this kind of self doesn't want to be myself at all.

"How can they say they all traveled here with us, isn't it too cruel to do so?"

It turns out that I am such a person in your heart!Since this is as you wish!Atobe thought in his heart, raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a sneer, "They want to put me to death!"

Tezuka looked at him in disbelief, at this moment Atobe regained his arrogance as an emperor and the ruthlessness of being in charge of the power of life and death. "It's not impossible to save them!"

"Oh?"

"Shall we negotiate terms? Tezuka?" Atobe said. Originally, he just wanted to ask for your help. Since you looked at me like that, I had no choice but to do something wrong.

"What conditions?"

"You know that with my body, I can only be a second-rate warrior at best. This is something I can't bear no matter what!"

"what do you mean……"

"I want you to accompany me to practice swords, practice to the best!"

……

"Why?" Atobe raised his eyebrows, isn't he willing to do this?But to Tezuka it looked provocative.

"Atobe, you don't need to do this at all!" Tezuka didn't expect him to be so strong. With his current status, there is no need to become a master like a samurai, and there is no need to even pick up a sword!

Maybe it's not necessary, but how can I tolerate such a shortcoming?Maybe one day, I too can take up the sword and protect you, just like you did today.These words were not uttered, "How? This is just a matter of effort for you!"

Atobe and Tezuka changed into night clothes, and he brought Tezuka to the prison where the Barbarian faction was held. He had already made arrangements before, so they could go unimpeded along the way.The two knocked out the guards, and easily led Higazhong to escape from the scene.The torches were lit behind them, and the soldiers guarding the prison began chaotically chasing the escaped prisoners.Atobe knew that it was Renzu's bluff, just to deceive others.

After seeing off everyone in Higa, it was already dawn. The two of them stood on the high city wall, watching the dawn gradually dispel the darkness. The ancient capital was bathed in the soft light of the morning sun. The smog in their hearts dissipated. Suddenly.Atobe turned his head and watched the sunlight draw a golden outline on Tezuka's sharp-edged face. His tall and straight body appeared even taller in the light of dawn. The bridge of the nose, the thin but resolute lips, he couldn't help but feel a little grateful for the arrangement of fate, for this man he had always wanted to defeat and longed for, to stand beside him so close.

"Atobe, in this early morning, I suddenly feel that the future of the nation seems to be born in our hands, and I can't suppress the excitement in my chest." Tezuka said, his eyes looked at the distant sky, calm and ethereal.

"Yes! Tezuka! As long as we fight side by side, I believe we have the ability to turn the tide and make the future shine like the morning sun."

"Yeah!" Tezuka nodded solemnly.

"Why don't the people in Higa know that you let them go?" Tezuka couldn't help asking when they walked down the city wall. They didn't reveal their identities to the people in Higa just now.The people in Higa thought they were fellows of the barbarians!

"I don't want them to thank me for this." Atobe regained his arrogance, "I don't care if there are more enemies like this."

"Really?" The corners of Tezuka's mouth raised slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile. If Atobe is so childish, he is somewhat cute. "However, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to explain this time? I'm sorry."

"What does it have to do with you?" Atobe was relieved about what happened last night, and didn't mind confessing to him, "Actually, I wanted to let them go."

"Hey?"

"Hehe, I want them to live to repent of their mistakes. I will let them see the history I created, the new history of the shogunate."

Tezuka smiled, at this time Atobe was arrogant and confident, as if the whole world was under his control.Such a majestic appearance, but with youthful and beautiful colors, a little green, but sincere and passionate, exciting and admirable!Tezuka can often recall his face full of vigor and high spirits in the morning when Atobe was bathed in the sun.
