In 2205 in the Western calendar, a group of criminals who called themselves "history revisionists" formed a time-traveling army with the intention of tampering with history.

In order to crusade against these criminals, the "Government of Time" summoned people with spiritual power to become "God Judges", and the "God Judges" summoned swords to pay the gods, and fought against the time retrograde army to achieve the purpose of maintaining history .

Undoubtedly, Zongsan Zuowen, Jinjian, Shuzhumaru Koji, and Smiling Qingjiang are all "Sword Fusangshen" who should fight the time-traveling army.

However, they have never seen Shikigami Foxnosuke sent by the government of time to guide the "judgers", nor have they seen the forge and sword solution pool. What remains in the minds of these Token Fusangshen is only the mission of maintaining history And some vague, almost guiding knowledge.

It's like they shouldn't clean up the time-traveling army in Gifu City day and night, and it's like their god judges should be people from later generations and the end of the Dharma, not historical figures.

"Hey, speaking of us, only Sozo is Nobunaga's sword." After finishing cleaning the easternmost part of Gifu City, Imaiken shook a pair of fair-skinned swords after taking dingzi oil and shoji paper for Sozo to write on. Sitting on the veranda with his little feet, "Is that really Mr. Nobunaga?"

Taking his own body—this is actually a pseudo-body concretized by spiritual power after being summoned, and the real Yoshimoto Samonji is with Nobunaga—take it out of the scabbard, Sosan Zuomonji silently put the handle on the knife. Disassemble it, hold the stem of the knife, and finely powder the sharp blade. After the old oil is absorbed, wipe off the powder with Fengshu paper and re-oil it.It was not until the process of powdering and oiling that the knife was maintained for more than ten minutes, that he reinstalled the handle of the knife and retracted the scabbard.

Sword Fusangshen is injured, and often needs to be polished and maintained to restore the body. Depending on the severity of the injury, it often takes ten minutes to several hours of maintenance time.Of course, they can also treat wounds like humans, but at present, the time-traveling army in Gifu City has been replenished again. In order to shorten the recuperation time, they usually use two-pronged approach after injury, using both repair methods-of course, Generally speaking, dealing with wounds can be done by Dao Jian Fu Sangshen himself, but maintaining the sword is the job of the master, that is, the god judge!

However, because the judge of God is Oda Nobunaga who intends to rule the world, the swords and swords that have been placed continuously have spontaneously lit up the skills of maintaining swords.

After taking care of the main body, Sosan Zuomonji twisted his wrist—his wrist was also carefully bandaged, which was done by Suzumaru Tsuneji.As Master Nichiren's former saber, probably because the former master was too paranoid and radical, Suzumaru is actually very skilled in treating wounds, and occasionally blurted out when applying ointment and tightening bandages Two Buddhist verses.

This made Zong San Zuowen involuntarily think of his elder brother Jiang Xuezuowen, who is also a Buddhist knife.

Because of this, he was a little distracted, and then he said: "...It is indeed that man."

"However, he looks exactly the same as Akechi Mitsuhide! In the history instilled in us, Akechi Mitsuhide also covered his face—if it wasn't written in the contract with Mr. Nobunaga as 'Oda Nobunaga', we would have to admit the wrong person Already!" Imaiken said, "Akechi Mitsuhide was exactly the same as Nobunaga in history?"

"I can't remember this kind of thing." Zong San said indifferently, his beautiful face was habitually melancholy, but the strange-colored eyes that were often occupied by hesitation turned out to be unspeakably clear and painful at the moment, " Whether I was handed over to Mitsuhide Akechi and that man, and who was holding me... These memories are all blurred."

Even Fu Sangshen, the swords have gone through a long time, and even changed several owners.Among them, the impressive ones may be remembered with some extra time, and the shallow ones will probably only have one name.Time can wash away everything, which applies to both human beings and Fu Sangshen.Even if their memory is much stronger than that of humans, the memory will disappear for various reasons, it may be the result of damage, or it may just be too long.

Even if the target is Oda Nobunaga who branded the mark of the Demon King on his body, when Zong San Zuowen once again recalled the experience of the Warring States period, what remained in his heart was only the sadness of being a bird in a cage.

Moreover, out of the mission of maintaining history, Token Fusangshen has been injected with "history" in his mind since his birth.As small as the general who killed Mori Ranmaru, as big as the culprit of the Honnoji Incident, they all know it clearly.Even in the Warring States period at this time, the understanding of his master, the master of Yoshimoto Zuowen, Oda Nobunaga, was inevitably annihilated in the vast "history" and became illusory, only because The intense emotions born of the man's actions remained.

Exactly the same face.Has Mitsuhide Akechi and Nobunaga Akechi ever switched identities? Has he been temporarily handed over from Nobunaga Oda to Mitsuhide Akechi?

Zong Sanzuo's writing is not clear.He only remembered that the man who would be called the "Sixth Heaven Demon King" had always been so chic that he could be called willful, and only occasionally would he calm down and sit quietly on the throne waiting for the audience of others.

Hashiba Hideyoshi did not disappoint Saburo's expectations. After gaining control of the [-]-strong army, he quickly set off with his troops, first occupied this mountain city in the country of Tajima, and then acted as the vanguard in October, taking the lead. He attacked Kita Ise, for which he was shot in the left leg.

It was also under Hashiba Hideyoshi's efforts that Kitaise soon fell into the hands of Saburo.

However, it also happened at this time that Akechi Mitsuhide received a letter from Kyoto—the content was about the fact that the inauguration Gonda Nagon gave Ashikaga Yoshiaki enough power, and he had already begun to write letters to daimyos from all over the world to vent his love for Oda I am dissatisfied with the length.

The letter was of course Fujitaka Hosokawa.

As Ashikaga Yoshiaki's most important vassal, Hosokawa Fujitaka has always maintained a slightly close relationship with the Oda family, neither will it disgust the Oda family, nor will it provoke Ashikaga Yoshiaki's increasingly sensitive nerves recently.But leaving aside his attitude towards the Oda family, Hosokawa Fujitaka has always maintained a close correspondence with Akechi Mitsuhide, who is a retainer of the Oda family.

But usually, Hosokawa Fujitaka would at best comment on the general's behavior in the letter, and most of them were mentioned in one stroke.This time, it was written very carefully that the general sent out letters frequently and was dissatisfied with the Oda family.

I also know that what is written in the letter is not as simple as pure dissatisfaction.

Saburo was very confused about this: "...I made the general angry, why don't I seem to have done anything to make him angry?"

Akechi Mitsuhide could only express silence to such an upright Saburo.

When Akechi Mitsuhide heard about it, Saburo happened to be discussing with Takenaka Hanbei.Hearing that the servant informed Mitsuhide Akechi that he had something to say, Saburo asked Mitsuhide Akechi to come in and report directly.The general was dissatisfied with the Oda family, and no one thought it strange except Saburo, so even though Hanbei Takenaka was there, and he was also a retainer, Akechi Mitsuhide did not avoid him. Get the information out.

Saburo was confused about this matter, and the two retainers had no intention of answering.After being silent for a while, Hanbei Takenaka said directly: "In that case, please invite Your Highness to meet Matsunaga Hideo."

Saburo just blinked, and replied casually: "Okay, anyway, he also said he wanted to see me."

Matsunaga Hideo was the murderer who joined forces with the Miyoshi family to kill Ashikaga Yoshiaki's brother and former general Ashikaga Yoshiki.In the general respect for the general - the Miyoshi family had only dared to stand up to the general before this - in this situation, he dared to attack the general blatantly, it can be said that he has no sense of dignity.

Before assassinating the general, Song Yongxiu was an official in Miyoshi's family and worked under Miyoshi Changqing, but for his own selfishness, he poisoned Miyoshi Changqing's son-in-law, which made Miyoshi Changqing unbearable and passed away. Changqing's wives and concubines were married as concubines, and they controlled the power of Miyoshi's family...

It can only be said that Ashikaga Yoshiki can make the hatred-filled Hideo Matsunaga and the Miyoshi family join forces to assassinate.

Later, after Saburo led the army to Luo, Song Yongxiu directly surrendered to Saburo.It's just that this person just sent a letter of surrender, and basically never came to visit Saburo.Until now, it was the first time he asked to meet Saburo.

For such a vicious character who has no distinction between good and evil, the retainers of the Oda family are not at all relieved that Saburo will meet him.It's not that he doesn't care about Saburo, but that Song Yongxiu is not even a wolf that he doesn't know well, but a jackal that drools behind him. No one knows what crazy things he will do.

Under this premise, Takenaka Hanbei asked Saburo to meet Matsunaga Hideo, and Saburo... very simply agreed.

This crisp speed even made Akechi Mitsuhide wonder if Saburo had thought about it.

However, in connection with the news he just said, he looked directly at Hanbei Takenaka and asked, "Is that why Matsunaga Hideo came here for this?"

"The timing of his request is too coincidental." Hanbei Takenaka raised his eyes, looked carefully at Mitsuhide Akechi for a few seconds, then lowered his eyelids again, and said calmly, "Probably because of this."

"Matsunaga Hideo has been restricted in the number of followers, and it is in Gifu City, so there should be no danger." Akechi Mitsuhide judged, and then looked at Saburo, "However, please take me with you, Your Highness."

-

He promised Takenaka to meet Matsunaga Hideo, so Saburo might not hesitate to bring Mitsuhide Akechi.Among the three, Takenaka bowed first and respectfully said that they would wait here. After that, Saburo left with Akechi Mitsuhide, and on the way he called Ikeda Hengxing to accompany him, and went to see Matsunaga Hideo.

Matsunaga Hideo, who was rumored to have a bad reputation, was equally terrifying in appearance.It's not that Zhou Zheng is not enough, but that his appearance is too fierce, and there are even several scars across his entire face, just looking at him has the ability to scare people.

Even when he asked to see Saburo, his attitude was too casual, he just took out a note from the hakama like alms, and put it in front of Saburo-this was the letter written by the general to the daimyo, complaining about Nobunaga.

So far, Takenaka Hanbei's several predictions are all accurate.Such insight into people's hearts almost made Akechi Mitsuhide tremble, but because Takenaka Hanbei had already served as Nobunaga, after the initial surprise, Akechi Mitsuhide relaxed his heart, and sincerely praised the Oda family for having such a retainer.

However, this reassurance soon disappeared under the content of the letter.

The letters Ashikaga Yoshiaki sent to daimyos all over the world—more precisely, secret letters—have only one central meaning, that is, "defeat Nobunaga".

Well, it's very general.

Akechi Mitsuhide was not angry, he even had a premonition that he had expected.Therefore, when Ikeda Hengxing was so angry that he almost jumped up, he just flattened the letter calmly, folded it carefully and put it away, and suggested that Saburo temporarily suppress the matter and not spread it to the outside world.

The general's actions are certainly infuriating, but the development of the Oda family in recent years is indeed enviable.So far, intimidated by the strength of the Oda family, even if someone is tempted by the general's proposal, they will not rush to send troops. Most of them will carefully contact other people to form an army that can counter the Oda family's army. Although the Tian family is indeed in danger, it has not reached the level of urgency.

Can you take this opportunity to hit the general hard instead?

Akechi Mitsuhide vaguely had an idea, but it wasn't perfect yet.He quickly counted in his mind the number of daimyos who are currently able to fight against the Oda family, opened up their network of relationships, and carefully speculated on the candidates who are most likely to change and most hope that the Oda family will weaken.While thinking, he walked back to the place where the three of them had discussed before, and was about to tell Hanbing Takenaka to keep the secret.

However, Hanbei Takenaka was already standing outside the sliding door waiting for him.

Asking the servants and attendants to retreat, Akechi Mitsuhide walked in front of Takenaka Hanbei, and said concisely: "Mr. Takenaka, Mr. Matsunaga is here with the general's letter. His Highness is going to hold you down for a while."

"I see." Hanbei Takenaka nodded, still calmly.

"I wanted to ask before—" He stared at Akechi Mitsuhide's only eyes, and suddenly whispered, "Is Mr. Akechi and His Highness related by blood?"
