"Ogata-kun, are you hugging me?

"Ah."

"thank you"

"It's been said about our relationship, so don't thank me."

"Senior Mikami? Do you have anything else to say?"

"Senior Sanshang, are you asleep?"

"Senior Mikami, if you want to continue thanking me, go ahead and say anything to me."

"Senior Three"

Before and after Ogata crouched behind Sankami, Cang Yong told Xuan An and others to leave here in a timely manner, and told Xuan An and others: Don't spread the news tonight.

In the dojo full of dead bodies, only Kuranaga, Feilu, Ogata, and Mikami, who had just died in Ogata's arms, remained

Even though Mikami had died, Ogata still hugged Mikami.

Because Ogata's back is facing them now, neither Kuranaga nor Tobizaru can see clearly what kind of expression Ogata has now.

"That is to say" Kurangaga whispered to the flying monkey with a volume that only he and the flying monkey could hear clearly, "Has the Sakakibara Sword Gym been wiped out and only Ogata-kun is left alive?"

"Yes." Flying Monkey nodded with a sullen face, "My lord, in order to celebrate Ogata-kun's recovery and the fact that Ogata-kun won the title exempted from universal transmission, all the masters and apprentices of the Sakakibara Sword Gym are gathered here tonight." , preparing for a banquet"

"That's why no one survived except for Ogata-kun"

Cang Yong has a lot to say.

But these words that were about to be uttered were stuck in Cang Yong's throat and could not be uttered.

In the end, it was just a long sigh.

While sighing, Kuranaga looked at Ogata who was still holding Mikami who had passed away with complicated eyes

a few hours later

Hirose Clan, Xuanzhen Temple.

"Master Kongqing, I really have to thank you."

"My lord, where is it? Helping the dead to save lives is what monks like us should do."

Cang Yong was bowing respectfully to an old monk in monk's uniform in front of him.

Using his connections, Cang Yong mobilized a large number of people to move the deceased masters and apprentices of the Sakakibara Sword Gym to Xuanzhen Temple, the most famous Buddhist temple in the Hirose Clan.

While burying the masters and apprentices of the Sakakibara Sword Academy in Xuanzhen Temple, Cang Yong also invited Master Kong Qing, the abbot of Xuanzhen Temple, to chant sutras for the masters and apprentices of the Sakakihara Sword Academy.

At that time, there were still some corpses of Matsudaira Gennai's bodyguards in the dojo.

In order to take care of Ogata's emotions, although Cang Yong also buried the bodies of these people in Xuanzhen Temple, he did not ask Master Kong Qing to chant sutras for them.

After working for several hours, from night until the sky was bright, Cang Yong successfully completed the burial of all the victims of the tragedy last night.

After bidding farewell to Master Kong Qing, Cang Yong slowly left Xuanzhen Temple along the stone brick ladder.

When halfway up the stone brick ladder, Cang Yong suddenly saw Ogata who was holding a knife and sitting on a step not far in front of him.

Chapter 90 Farewell [5 updates today! 】

"Ogata-kun"

Kurunaga wanted to say something to Ogata.

But words flowed from his mouth, but nothing came out.

He doesn't know what he can say to Ogata now

Any words of consolation seem extremely pale now

Since last night, after checking that there was no living person in the dojo, Ogata's expression has been very strange.

Kurunaga couldn't think of any words to describe Ogata's expression.

On the surface it is expressionless.

But under this expressionless appearance, Cang Yong can clearly feel that there is a surging emotion and power hidden in it

When Kuranaga hesitated to say something to Ogata, Ogata suddenly grabbed the sword in his arms and stood up.

"My lord, I'm going ahead."

After all, without waiting for any response from Cang Yong, Xu went straight to the outside of Xuanzhen Temple, and within a short while, completely disappeared from Cang Yong's field of vision.

"Flying Monkey, are you there?"

"Yes, I am."

At this time, Fei Yuan flashed out from the forest beside him, and then stood beside Cang Yong, waiting for Cang Yong's order.

"Flying Ape, I feel more and more that I am really a cruel person"

"After seeing the Sakakibara Sword Gym being destroyed by the lord, while I feel sympathy, I also feel a little happy"

"Because in this way, the possibility that Ogata-kun will join us will be greatly increased."

After finishing speaking, Cang Yong raised his head and let out a long sigh.

"Oh, I think I'm cruel."

"My lord" Tobizaru searched his brains, thinking of the right words, "It is thanks to your cruelty that the Hirose clan can maintain the current stability."

"Let's go, let's go back to the mansion." After finishing speaking, Cang Yong stepped forward and walked down the stairs, "Let's slowly wait for Ogata-kun to make up his mind."

next morning

Hirose Clan, Ogata's home

Ogata is now sitting on the tatami in the center of the room.

Two sabers were placed neatly on the right side of his body.

Also neatly placed on the tatami on the right is the cheat book and the Sakakibara Ichidou-ryu Exemption Certificate.

Ogata, who was wearing clothes that had obviously just been laundered, was brushing his hair.

After combing his hair and pinning his hair in a bun, Ogata picked up the saber by his side and inserted it back into his waist. Apart from the saber, the only two things he could count as his precious possessions were the cheat book and Sakakibara's swordsmanship. Putting the certificate in his arms, he walked slowly towards the dirt room of the house.

After putting on the straw sandals in the soil, Ogata turned his head and carefully looked at the small broken house where he had lived for a while.

The house was spotless.

Because Ogata had cleaned the house thoroughly yesterday.

Ogata carefully looked at everything in the house, as if he wanted to engrave all the things and details in his mind.

"farewell"

After whispering these words, Ogata opened the door without any nostalgia, and then left the small broken house that had accompanied him for a long time

Hirose Domain, Ruiya.

"Afu!"

Ah Saki frowned, and said to Ah Fu next to her:

"Did you hear any strange movement outside the kitchen just now?"

"Huh? Is there? I didn't hear it."

"Come on, let's go out and have a look."

Ah Saki and Ah Fu walked out of the kitchen one after the other.

After leaving the kitchen, there was no one in sight.

But Saki had a letter on the table closest to the door.

"what is this?"

While muttering, Ah Saki walked towards the table, picked up the letter, and unfolded it.

The letter only wrote a simple sentence:

The signature on the lower left corner of the letter is Ogata Itsue.

"Master Ogata" Saki murmured Ogata's name, a look of uneasiness gradually appeared on her face, "What happened?"

"Miss Azaki, what was written in the letter?" The uneasy look on Azaki's face made Ah Fu feel anxious.

"Ah Fu! The Liuya is closed today! The two of us went to find Ogata-sama!"

Hirose Domain, the residence of Kuranaga

"Wait!"

The two gatekeepers of the Kuranaga mansion looked at the young samurai in front of them with wary eyes.

"No one else, don't get close!"

"Please inform the elders of the family." The young warrior said softly, "Just say that Ogata Yishi is visiting."

"Ogata Yishi?" The two gatekeepers exclaimed in unison.

The two of them had previously been instructed to report immediately if a young samurai who called himself Ogata Itsuki visited.

"I see, please wait here for a while." A gatekeeper hurried into the mansion after leaving these words.

Not long after the gatekeeper left, the heavy wooden door was slowly pulled open, and Kuranaga's magnificent mansion appeared before Ogata's eyes again.

"Ogata-kun"

In the reception room of the mansion, Kuranaga and Ogata sat facing each other.

When I met Ogata again, Cang Yong didn't exchange greetings with Ogata.

"Have you made up your mind yet?"

"I've already made up my mind." Ogata replied without thinking.

"If you become an executioner, your future fate will be a narrow escape." Cang Yong stared straight at Ogata, this sharp gaze seemed to see through Ogata's inner thoughts, "Even so, you Would you like to join me in supporting righteousness?"

And Ogata also looked at Kurunaga with eyes full of strength without showing any weakness.

"I don't care much about righteousness."

Ogata said seriously.

"That's all for the purpose of slashing Matsudaira Gennai thousands of times!"

"Even if the body and body are destroyed, I will definitely kill the traitor!"

Kuranaga, who was looking directly at Ogata, remained expressionless.

But after hearing Ogata's words, a faint smile appeared from the corner of Kurangaga's slightly raised mouth.

"Flying ape!"

Cang Yong shouted towards the outside of the room.

As soon as Cang Yong's voice fell, Fei Yuan, who had been waiting outside the room, immediately opened the paper sliding door.

"Go and tell Ichiro that they have a new aspirant joining us!"

"Yes!"
