[Gintama] Immortal

The Kent star is located at the outer edge of the Milky Way, and it is a transit station connecting many interstellar channels.

More than half of the population on this asteroid are immigrants from aliens, and the trade is highly developed. It is one of the very few planets with artificial wormhole technology.

A wormhole is a narrow tunnel connecting two different time and space in the universe.

Residents on this planet call the artificially manufactured wormholes "gates", which can realize short-distance fixed-point space jumps.For a ship traveling faster than the speed of light, a space jump can save four or five days of voyage, so even if the price is expensive, the supply of passes is in short supply.

The ship suspended in the void slowly drove into the landing pad, and the huge space was filled with ships from all over the universe, and the signal tower stood tall, like the protruding spikes on a conch shell.

Putting on a windbreaker and gloves, Yae put a copy of "Travel Guide to the Milky Way" in his cross-body bag.After making sure that she had brought everything she wanted, she turned to look at the dark figure standing by the porthole:

"Are you sure you don't want to get off the boat with me?"

After thinking about it, I seemed to think that this was not convincing enough, so Yae seriously added:

"The tourism industry here is well developed."

After listening to her babbling with an unchanged expression, he slightly bent his eyebrows and said in a voice of no interest: "So?"

"..." Yae: "You still hate crowds so much."

Xu narrowed his eyes slightly: "You always go to noisy places."

"..."

The two stalemate silently for a while, and Yae sighed, showing a helpless look: "Do you have any souvenirs you want? I'll bring them for you."

"……No."

"Eh? Seriously? Really not?"

"No. If you want to get off the boat, go quickly."

"Wow, boring man."

Xu Xu raised the corner of his mouth and smiled.Behind the hideous mask, the contrasting smile looked extremely warm: "Then you go and look for a man who will make you find it interesting."

There seemed to be a sound of freezing in the air. He stroked the black handle of the knife and added unhurriedly: "The premise is if you can find it."

"... There is no need to look for it anymore, I think you are very good, very good."

Yafold didn't blink: "You are the most interesting. The most interesting in the whole universe."

As if she didn't notice the cold breath wrapped around Xu, she raised her head and laughed, her voice was bright and soft.

"See you later."

The air flow leaked out and the cabin door slid open, Xu raised his eyelids, and Nai Luo, who was waiting beside the boarding bridge, nodded silently, turned and followed.

The thirteenth district of Kent Star is the most prosperous area of ​​commerce, gathering products from all over the universe.

Minerals excavated from the cores of dead stars, spirits that are said to be able to see heaven in a sip, electronic prosthetics that can perfectly connect biological nerves, are unheard of but have everything that one expects to find.

Yae excitedly ran from one store to the next, and soon his arms were full of paper bags.

The store on the left is having a discount promotion, and there is a faint plant aroma, soft and hazy.

Holding a glass bottle in her hand, the female clerk with pointed ears smiled and advertised to passers-by:

"Infused with the best of nature, this eye cream is scientifically proven to reduce wrinkles, dark circles and protect the most delicate skin around your eyes."

Yae passed by the beauty store, and after a few seconds, he walked back backwards.

"Should we buy some souvenirs for Oboro to take back?"

She turned her head and asked Naraku who had been following behind her.

The thirteen generations of Amaterasu-in Naraku are very busy.

When empty, busy.When he is absent, he is more responsible for staying in the earth town, playing the game of stabbing each other with the shogunate and the Tiandao people.

Even if Xu drifted to the universe, as long as Oboro is still there, Amaterasu-in Naraku will definitely be well-groomed, waiting 24 hours a day for a surprise inspection by Mr. Xu-although he has never had a surprise inspection.

Yae felt that Oboro who stayed behind on Earth was a bit lonely.

"..." Naluo, who was three steps behind her, remained silent.

Reticence is a common problem of all Narakus. The exception is those who can blow their eyes for three days and three nights without closing their eyes like Oboro, and they are abnormal values ​​with a probability of occurrence less than one percent.

But even in Naraku, Bier, one of the three feathers, was exceptionally quiet.

The appearance of this person is full of a breath that needs to be described in a comparative degree: the eyebrows are thick, the scar is super tough, and the expression is extremely cold, as if he can slash you a few times by raising his hand. The disadvantage is that he refuses to speak.

Yae walked into the store and scoured eye creams, night repair serums, and sleeping masks.

When she saw the price, she paused and calculated the exchange rate of foreign currency - she would have to deliver [-] times to make enough money.

But after thinking about it, she is now using Naraku's funds from Tianzhaoyuan.

If she doesn't spend this money, is she going to leave it for nothing to destroy the world?

... No, this is not buying, buying, buying, this is indirectly saving the world.

And hazy dark circles.

Yae walked out of the store carrying the big and small bags, and the female shop assistant with pointed ears smiled brightly.

Bier stood outside like a doorpost, watching the people coming and going on the street with heavy eyes.

Kent Star is the intersection and transit point of many interstellar routes.

The next part of the voyage is long, replenishing supplies and inspecting the ship. In fact, one afternoon is not enough time.

From the street to the end of the street, Yae almost walked around the [-]th district, and when he was about to turn back, a tsunami of cheers and screams came from the next block.

——It is the direction of the arena.

Adjacent to the thirteenth district, the painting style of the fourteenth district is completely different.

This is the area where fish and dragons are the most mixed, and the arena, which is a landmark building, looks like a huge lair of monsters from a distance.

Yetu, Chajini, and Chenluo, the three major mercenary races in the universe are said to be often active in them. The fighting arena in the fourteenth district of Kent Star enjoys a high reputation among the militants in the galaxy.

No threshold is set, only strength is considered. The rules of this world are simple and rude, as are the jaw-dropping profits.

Yae bought spectator tickets for the next competition and queued up to enter.

She wanted to sign up to try this crude way of making money, but Bi's eyes were too heavy, so she had to give up.

The fighting arena is an open-air building, and the grandstand of Nuo Da is full of seats, crowded with strangely shaped heavenly beings, and the atmosphere on the scene is very warm.

The countdown bell rang, and a faint light appeared in the void, which condensed into a large translucent screen, on which the contestants' information could be seen at a glance.

"Oh, wrong person bet."

Yae was nibbling melon seeds, looking at the ferocious faces on the screen that clearly belonged to the Chajini family.

"When placing a bet, I chose a name at random. Who would have thought that the opponent would be the legendary Green Clan."

She turned sideways and asked curiously, "What about you? Which player did you bet on?"

Bi sat motionless, Yae waited patiently for half a minute, then looked away, a heavy shadow suddenly fell in front of her eyes, blocking the light source from which she looked at her receipt.

Raising her head, it is difficult to describe a celestial being standing in front of her with a single species. There are bull heads, horse faces, and... mutants of frogs?

"Look," those celestial beings laughed strangely, "there are actually females of the earth here."

Yae blinked: "Wait a minute, don't do anything."

There was a slight rustling movement, and the coffin retracted the sleeve knife expressionlessly, and the figures in the corner of his eyes also stopped and hid themselves in the crowd again.

The competition started, and the surrounding sounds were like surging waves.

"Good afternoon, males of the unknown planet."

The leader of the Tauren obviously paused, his expression darkened: "Who do you think you are talking to?"

"Shouldn't we say hello like this?" Yae cracked open the sunflower seeds, "I thought it was a custom here because of the planet I belonged to, plus the gender of the creature. It seems that I may have made a mistake."

There was a loud bang from the center of the fighting arena, sand and dust rose all over the sky, the voice of the commentator spitting was suddenly hurried, and the emotions of the audience became intense with the bloody permeation. The chaotic scene was very suitable for accidents.

The messy voice was indistinct, and Yae didn't pay attention to the threat of those celestial beings.

On the far side of the auditorium, a faint spot of light shone.

"...Bastard, you are looking down on..."

"If you don't want to die," Yae's expression didn't change, but his voice suddenly froze, "Let's disperse now!!"

The gunshots exploded without warning, Yae pushed the knife out of its sheath, and jumped from the seat suddenly.

Nai Luo, who was lurking around, moved out at the same time. The attacker on the opposite side of the auditorium fired a shot and was pushed to the ground. The bright red blood flowed down the steps, and piercing screams came from the crowd.

The first shot went sideways and shattered the nearby metal pillars. The audience began to flee in panic. The second and third shots came from different directions. The guy with the cloak covering his whole body seemed to appear out of nowhere—but Naraku wasn't quite the same.

She thought these people didn't decide to do anything anymore. Fortunately, after she noticed the stalker, she purposely wandered around. She didn't create a gap of ten or eight. Finally, she thought, okay, the enemy won't come and pull you down, I want to see happily After a bloody competition, the opponent will act.

A hoarse roar sounded beside him, and the Tauren, who seemed not to be in the same group as the attackers, got up from the gravel of the ruins, his face covered in blood, ferocious and angry.

"What the hell did you do?!"

"...No, look around," Yae raised her eyebrows, the air flow in the air changed at that moment, she jumped up the steps in a few steps, stepped on the metal bench and turned to the safe side, the roar of the laser cannon wiped The corner of her clothes passed by, and the metal bench was instantly shattered, and the flying parts sank into the ground like a knife cutting tofu.

Rolling on the spot and standing up, Yae put the knife horizontally in front of his body, turned his head and gestured to the attackers who surrounded him from both sides with his eyes.

"It's not me who did something, it's obviously these guys."

The long-range shooting stopped, and it was probably solved by Naraku over there, but the fighting arena also became a mess, with collapsed columns and metal wreckage everywhere.

"……asshole!!"

The angry voice of the tauren stopped here.

A cold feeling spread from the depths of the bone marrow, and after the moment when the killing intent was still, the strong smell of blood suddenly sprayed out.

The enemies surrounded by her were cut in two and fell down. The tauren maintained the movement of reaching out, and the incision of the arm stretched out to her was neatly broken there.

"What a riot."

Narrowing his eyes, he smiled warmly.

The tragic howl could almost tear people's eardrums, as if he didn't hear it, he stepped over the corpse on the ground calmly, shaking the knife to shake off the blood on the blade.

"I almost missed such a grand celebration. Fortunately, I didn't come too late."

After a slight pause, he turned his head to the side, his smiling eyes glanced at the enemies who were still alive, his red pupils were cool.

"The real fun part starts now."

Like a frog being targeted by a snake, those people froze in place silently, aiming their guns at Xu's left atrium, but no one dared to shoot.

"...I thought you didn't like this lively place." Yae relaxed his shoulders.

Isn't this here in person?

Immediately, she sighed: "The identities of the Heavenly Daoists are really suspected. Once they enter the neutral zone that is not directly under their jurisdiction, they will be attacked immediately. After all, I am just an innocent passenger—on the same ship."

"Oh? It seems to be blaming my tone."

The guns blared, and the temperature of the air became scorching hot in an instant. Xu grabbed a corpse and threw it over. The crushed pieces of meat turned into a stinky rain of blood. Blooming, the soldiers with guns are like harvested wheat split from half the waist.

The voice of grief and indignation was like the howling of a wild beast, standing on the spot unmoved, raised the tip of the knife and waved it casually, the head of the attacker flew out along with the weapon in his hand, Gulu Gulu spun around on the ground a few times and remained still up.

"...Master Xu."

Yae heard Bier speak.

The moment the attack started, he was thrown into the front line. The opponent knelt on one knee in the gravel, his clothes were dyed dark red, and his head was lowered.

"It is my dereliction of duty to let you set foot in such a place."

Hmm... I've checked the look in my eyes, and like Obscure, I'm a die-hard fan of Lord Xu.

In other words, Naraku is his diehard loyalist.

Going down to kill someone in person will be said to be like a bird coming down to earth.

"No," Xu flipped the tip of the knife casually, "I haven't moved for a long time. If you stay still all day, your bones will rust."

The remaining main force of the enemy began to gather here, and Naraku, who was scattered all over the arena, also rushed towards this place like an eagle dog smelling blood.

"You go back to the boat first." Xu Xu smiled with crooked eyebrows, and the black octopus mask was splattered with blood, like some kind of signal before the killing spree.

"Is this the eviction order?"

Yae raised her eyes.

"If you want to stay, that's up to you." Xu Hao looked at the enemy's shrinking encirclement, as if looking down on the overwhelmed ants, "I seem to remember that you don't like this kind of boring scene."

One-sided carnage is a boring scene indeed.

There is also a reason for Obor's description of Xu's existence as a punishment from heaven.

Bi spontaneously protected her and retreated.Broken walls, blood and gravel, Yae looked back at the dismantled stands, and always felt that she seemed to have overlooked something.

... What is the enemy's purpose?

Is the enemy really an anti-Altana Preservation Society organization?

... If so, then they know too much inside information, including the specific route of this trip.

Blood spattered out, and the knife pierced the throat of the roadblocker, and before he knew it, the surroundings were already covered with corpses.

The bright red blood splattered all over the ground, and one of the "corpse", which was only half breathed, moved its fingers slightly.

— No, not right.

There was a strange buzz in the air, Yae turned his head and found that the dust on the ground was shaking.

The gravitational force changed, and instantly became an irresistible pressure, like an invisible hand pressing her down, tightly against the ground, she could almost hear the sound of bones creaking.

The invisible light screen erected like an enchantment to isolate the space, Yae raised his head with some difficulty, and found that the coffin not far away was also held down by this strange gravity and could not move.Looking along the bright lines on the ground, hidden among the ruins and corpses was a metal round object that she had never seen before.

The enemy's purpose is to create chaos and take advantage of this gap to lay the most important trap——

The space teleportation device that opens the "door".

...Send what?

her?

Once the small-scale "gate" is opened, it will change and compress the surrounding space, and may also cause gravitational distortion.In such a situation, it is impossible to break free.

The extremely harsh light spread out, and the world was painted white.

The heavy pressure that bound people suddenly lightened, as if the concept of gravity disappeared for a short time, and Yae felt like he was floating in the weightless space like dust in the air.

If it is a jump that tears apart the space, even the god of death can't catch up.

There was a sharp, almost shrill sound of piercing through the air, and there was a "click", and there was a crisp metal sound like a chain being cut.

There was a gap in the space, and the long black knife cut into the edge of the gap, with fresh blood beads winding on the blade.

Like a corner of the barrier of light collapsed, the hard and flawless barrier was cracked, and the space transmission only took an instant, but this moment was interrupted by someone reckless and almost arrogant, and suddenly stopped for a moment.

Yae's eyes widened in surprise, meeting the eyes of the slightly shrunken scarlet pupils.

Then everything fell into a sudden collapse of darkness.
