I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

"I was a swordsman in ancient Japan(

"4, 6, 8, 10..."

In the large room where Ogata and the men rested, there was only one Ogata at this time.

Today is the sixth day of going to sea.

Ogata, who stayed alone in the room, leaned on the corner of the room, spread all the money left in his purse on the floor, and counted how much money he had left.

After counting the total amount of funds he had left, Ogata silently recovered the money back into the purse, and then whispered in a volume that only he could hear:

"I have to find a way to make some money later..."

From leaving the Hirose clan at the end of last year and becoming a renegade renunciation, Ogata has been using the money that was given to him by the Hirose clan’s family at that time.

The thick purse that Kuranaga gave to Ogata in the past was separated from Ogata twice.

The first time was when he was in the Tatsuno clan, he was stolen by a certain Yakuza.

The second time was when he was escorted to Butterfly Island, he was confiscated by Hasegawa.

Fortunately-after two separations, the money bag finally returned to Ogata's hands.

While being escorted to Chojima Island, Hasegawa returned Ogata's purse to Ogata through the hands of the soldiers responsible for sending Ogata to the island.

In order to compensate Ogata who had to leave the domain due to the killing of Matsuhira Genoui, Kuranaga made a very generous move. The amount of money contained in the money bag presented to Ogata was so large that it was frightening.

After counting the money left by him, according to Ogata’s estimation, even under the current situation that he has already spent a lot of money, he still has enough money to spend nearly 10 years on his own. time.

Although he still has a lot of money left, Ogata still has a sense of crisis over the money issue at this time.

There is no other reason-there is a Ding beside him now.

Although Ah Ting also had some money with her when she defected to Shiranui, she didn't have much money at all.

With a Ting around who needed to take care of him, the amount of money that was originally considerable immediately seemed to be not so much.

The reason Ogata was staying in the ship’s room at this time was just looking for a clean place to take a good count and organize his purse.

After putting the purse back away, Ogata, who was no longer staying in the unmanned room, stood up and walked out of the room.

After leaving the room and going up to the deck, Xuyi saw the people who were doing various things on the deck at this time.

Lin and Acho, who were seasick, still stayed in their room to rest.

As usual, Yuan Yi sat in the stern drinking wine and blowing the sea breeze.

Mamiya is fiddling and adjusting the position of the sails.

Makimura, Asai, and Shimada were sitting on the bow of the boat and they didn’t know what they were talking about.

Ogata walked towards the bow of Makimura and the others, and the three Makimura people who noticed that Ogata had come out of the cabin also turned back.

"How?" Makimura asked Ogata, "Is it comfortable to sleep?"

"Yeah. Not bad." Ogata lied casually.

Just now before Ogata entered the room, he pretended to everyone that he was going to take a nap. But in fact, Ogata didn't sleep at all, but just checked his own money bags.

"Shimada, how are you feeling today?" Sitting cross-legged beside Shimada, Ogata raised his hand and nodded his head. "Will you still feel dizzy?"

"I feel better today." Shimada smiled, "Thank you for your care these days."

Shimada also experienced seasickness after going out to sea, but it was not as serious as Lin and Ading and the others, just a little dizzy.

Today Shimada's spirit is good, and he can still sit leisurely on the bedside and chat with Makimura and Asai.

Probably because the waves in this sea area are not so surging.

"I just asked Mamiya how long it will take us to reach Edo." Makimura said to the side. "Mamiya said-in about seven days, we will be in Edo. "

"Seven days..." Ogata murmured, "The speed is faster than I thought..."

"Of course." Mucun shrugged, "We are walking by sea, we don't need to climb mountains or cross mountains, and our luck is pretty good, most of the time is downwind, so the speed of advance is of course. fast."

Speaking of this, Makimura paused, then changed to a joking tone, and Chao Ogata continued:

"Brother Ogata, I'm going to Edo now, and you should almost think of a pseudonym for yourself and the style of swordsmanship you use."

Hearing these words from Makimura, Ogata was taken aback at first.

Then whispered softly:

"A pseudonym...that's right...and it's indeed time to get a pseudonym in advance."

When leaving Kyoto and heading to Owari, Okini heard his legend halfway through.

Since he attacked Nijo Castle, the names "Hanman Ichitosai" and "Ren Zhan Yishi" have once again become famous all over Japan.

After slaying the lord in the Hirose clan, and then attacking Nijo Castle in Kyoto, Ogata may now be the most famous ronin in Japan and the most fierce in the shogunate.

Now in the eyes of the generals and officials of the shogunate, he might have become a mentally problematic brain that killed the feudal lord first and then attacked Nijo Castle.

As far as Ogata knows-there are different opinions about whether he is still alive.

Some people think that "Human Zhan Yishi" had already been killed in Nijo Castle when they attacked Nijo Castle.

There are also some people who think that "people are still alive".

Because at that time, the main battlefield-Nijo Castle's castle tower was on fire, and all the corpses on the castle tower were burned. So the government wanted to rely on the corpses present at the time to identify whether Ogata was still alive.

In short-at this time when he is more famous, if he does not do any disguise and declares to the citizens of Edo grandly that his name is Ogata Issei, and the swordsmanship genre used is Sakihara Ichisaku style, it will surely provoke big trouble.

Anyone who knows a little bit about "Man Slash Itose" knows that the genre of swordsmanship used by Ogata Itose is a niche genre that only circulates in the Izumo Hirose clan: Sakihara Ichito style.

So it is also necessary to give a pseudonym to the school of swordsmanship he uses.

Shimada on the side also added at this time:

"In addition to thinking about a pseudonym, Ogata-sama, remember to put a disguise on your face."

"The disguise of the face is easy to say." As Ogata said, he stretched his hand into his arms and took out two flesh-colored objects from his arms. "Just wear this."

These are 2 human skin masks.

To be precise, before leaving Kyoto, Makimura gave Ogata two human skin masks.

According to Makimura, these two human skin masks were obtained from Ryunosuke, the leader of the "gravedigger" who tried to destroy Kyoto.

One of the two human skin masks is Ogata's face, and the other is a plain and honest face.

Ryunosuke was wearing the face of Ogata, killing people in Kyoto, causing Ogata somehow to carry a **** pot on his back.

Only those whose faces match these two human skin masks can wear this mask.

Since Ryunosuke can wear this Ogata face, Ogata can naturally wear these two masks too.

Because these two human skin masks were of no use to Makimura, Makimura gave them both to Ogata.

The quality of these two masks is extremely high, and after wearing them, they are really good enough to be fake.

When preparing to leave Kyoto and head to Owari, Ogata wore that ordinary human skin mask with ordinary facial features and left Kyoto smoothly.

Ogata plans to put on the human skin mask again when he enters the crowded Edo, disguising himself as an ordinary ronin.

Regarding how to disguise his face, Ogata has long planned, but he has not yet figured out what pseudonym should be given to his name and the style of swordsmanship he uses.

After entering Edo, it is inevitable that others will ask what their name and pseudonym are.

After putting the two human skin masks back into his arms, Ogata raised his head and looked at the blue sky above his head. While looking at the blue sky above his head, he was meditating.

Ogata plans to think about the pseudonym he will use when he enters Edo now.

After thinking for a moment, the corners of Ogata's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, and then—

"...I think about it."

Ogata flattened his raised head, and then said to the three people of Makimura, Asai, and Shimada beside him:

"My pseudonym... let's set it as'Mashima Goro'."

"As for the genre of swordsmanship... let's set it as the'Gumu Yidao Style'."

After all, Ogata dipped in a few drops of seawater splashing on the deck, and quickly wrote the nine Chinese characters "Mashima Goro" and "Gumaki Ichidori" on the deck.

After writing these nine Chinese characters, Ogata also marked the pronunciation of these two words with a pseudonym.

Makimura and the others glanced at the nine Chinese characters that Ogata had written on the deck.

"まじま……ごろう (Majima·Gouro Makimura whispered the pronunciation of the name Goro Majima, and asked Ogata, "It’s a very common name... but it’s a common name. A pseudonym is also suitable."

When Ogata was still on the modern earth, due to strict tutoring, there was almost no entertainment time, and most of the time was spent studying hard.

This strict tutoring has made Ogata rarely played electric games.

The number of video games that Ogata has been exposed to is so small that it can be counted with one hand.

And all of the electric motors he had come into contact with were all in the homes of friends.

After all, only friends' houses have game consoles and game CDs.

The "Ryulong" series is one of the very few electric motors that Ogata has come into contact with before.

Ogata likes this game series very much, especially one of the protagonists of this game series-"Majima Goro".

So when thinking about aliasing, the first name that came to Ogata's mind was "Majima Goro".

I didn't bother to think about a brand new name Ogata, so he borrowed the name "Majima Goro" directly, and only replaced the word "lang" with "lang". As for the pronunciation, it was exactly the same.

As for "Gumu Yidao Liu", it is also a name borrowed from "Long".

There is a powerful martial arts series in "Longyu", which is called "Gumu Liu", and Ogata directly lent this name.

As soon as Ogata announced the pseudonym he had set to the three Makimura people, Mamiya’s voice suddenly came from behind them:

"What are you talking about?"

"It's nothing." Makimura said, "It's just what pseudonym should be used after Ogata arrives in Edo."

"Oh? Then Ogata-kun, have you thought about your pseudonym?"

"Yeah." Ogata nodded, and then said in a half-joking tone, "Goro Shimomashima is the descendant of the Furumu Swordsmanship."

"Mashima Goro..." Mamiya chewed the name. "A good name... Speaking of which, I haven't given myself a pseudonym yet."

"Yeah." Mucun nodded, "Mamiya, you are also wanted. You should also give yourself a pseudonym."

Mamiya and Lin are the only two wanted men in the shogunate in the gourd house.

But because Lin had never let the officials see her face, she didn't need to do anything to disguise, she just had to hide her recognizable saber.

"Didn't you use the pseudonym "Hirata Ichiro" before, Mamiya?" Asai, who had not spoken all the time, interjected at this time, "Can you just use this pseudonym?"

"I have used that pseudonym for a long time." Mamiya shrugged. "It's rare to come to Edo. I want to use a new pseudonym."

"...'Kiryu Kazuma'-how about this name?" Ogata, with an inexplicable smile on his face, took Mamiya's words in a half-joking tone.

"きりゅう·かずま(Kiryu·Kazuma)?" Mamiya repeated the pronunciation of the name Ogata just said in a confused tone, "How do you write Chinese characters?"

Ogata once again dipped in the seawater splashing on the deck and wrote the four Chinese characters "Kiryu Ichima" on the deck.

The name also comes from "Like a Dragon".

Ogata replaced one of the protagonists of this series of games with the character "horse" in Kiryu Ichima with "true". Although the character was changed, the pronunciation is exactly the same.

Seeing that Mamiya was going to give herself a brand new pseudonym, Ouji pushed this name to Mamiya.

Mamiya carefully examined the four Chinese characters "Kiryu Ichima" written by Ogata on the deck. After chewing the pronunciation of the name several times, a faint smile of joy slowly appeared on his face:

"Kizuma Kiryu...This name is not bad..."

Mamiya seemed to like this name.

"Do you want to use this name?" Seeing that Mamiya seemed to have liked this name, Ogata's face couldn't help but something unexpected appeared.

"Yeah. Anyway, it's just a pseudonym. You don't need to be too particular about it. I'll just use this name."

"Well, you like it."

"Then please advise, Mashima-kun." Mamiya said to Ogata in a half-joking tone.

"Mutual each other, Kiryu Chan~ (Kiryu Chan Ogata also returned to Keomamiya in a half-joking tone.

"Why suddenly call me in such a disgusting tone..." Mamiya showed a helpless expression.

...

...

In this way, another 6 days passed in calm and calm--

The sun is high, and it is noon now.

Because it was on the boat and there was no place to cook rice, Ogata and others used dry food and water to mix every meal these days.

Just now, after a brief lunch of today, Asai, Shimada, and Makimura entered the room to prepare for a nap.

Because there was nothing to do on the boat, Makura's night time and nap time became slightly longer.

Lin and Ah Ding stayed in the room as usual and fought with a strong sense of dizziness.

Mamiya is adjusting the sail according to the wind direction.

Genichi, Ogata, and Makimura sat in the stern of the boat, drinking Genichi’s homemade "Oolong tea" while chatting.

Ogata and Makimura each held a wine glass full of "oolong tea" in their hands, and poured the wine into their mouths one by one.

After the two drank the wine that was so strong that it could ignite, both of them let out a painful moan.

"Gen one man..." Ogata said to Genichi with admiration while rubbing the corners of his mouth, "It's a shame you can drink such strong wine..."

Ogata has been quietly observing Genichi these days.

Since going to sea, Yuanyi has spent most of his time sitting in the stern drinking his own "oolong tea".

"Oolong tea" is so strong that it can ignite. After a cup, I feel the whole mouth, esophagus, and stomach are burning.

With such a strong drink, Ogata can only drink at most 3 glasses.

And Genichi can drink calmly for a whole day...

Although Yuanyi always sips this wine, he never sips it.

Seeing both Ogata and Makimura drank the contents of the cup very happily, Genichi let out a series of heroic laughs.

"Drinking is one of my few hobbies!"

Genichi raised the bottle in his hand and poured "oolong tea" on the glasses of Ogata and Makimura again.

And this time Genichi didn't fill both of their wine glasses, only poured almost half a glass.

While pouring Ogata's sake, Genichicha Ogata said:

"Ogata-kun, do you know that, I admire you very much."

"Oh? Why?" Ogata smiled, "Is it because of my drinking?"

"Hahahaha! This is only one of the reasons. The main reason why I admire you is because you are brave enough!"

"Dare to attack Nijo Castle in Kyoto alone!"

"This kind of thing, even when I was young, I dare not do it!"

"I admire you as a courageous person."

After that, Yuanyi raised his glass and took a sip of wine.

"It's just that there is a price to be paid for this kind of boldness." Ogata put on a self-deprecating tone, "If I didn't enter the'Self-Free State' again that night in a timely manner, I might have died there."

Since deciding to cooperate with Gourd House to uproot Shiranui, Ogata and Amachi have exchanged information about Shiranui with Lin and others an unknown number of times.

Amachi, who was a ninja in Shiranui, revealed everything she knew about Shiranui.

And Ogata also shared what he knew-Shiranui developed a drug called "Yasha Maru", and this "Yasha Maru" was only owned by the Balrog and the Four Heavenly Kings and other information was also shared with the people in the gourd house. .

Huluya is now an ally of him and Ah Ding, a grasshopper on the same line.

It is good for Ogata and Amachi to tell the people in the gourdaya all the information they know about Shiranui.

In order to arouse the attention of everyone in the Gourd House to the "Yasha Realm" in Shiranui, Ogata specifically emphasized that he had entered the "Selfless Realm" state before defeating Kotaro who entered the "Yasha Realm".

Lin, as the second generation of Muzong family of the second sword style of Wu-Se, and Mamiya and the others are Lin's subordinates, naturally they all know what the "Self-Free State" is.

Therefore, they all know what it means to be an enemy that needs "selflessness" to fight against.

Ogata still remembers Lin's solemn and solemn expressions when they learned that he was under the blessing of the "Selfless Realm" before they defeated Kotaro, one of the Four Heavenly Kings.

"I've told you before. Before you have reached the peak of the breath of the source, one of the tricks to entering the'Selfless Realm' is to have only one thing in your mind."

"Thinking about winning."

"I want to live."

"I want to protect someone."

"With this state of mind and the use of the breath of the source, the chance of entering the'Selfless Realm' will greatly increase."

"If I'm right, you were thinking about the same idea crazily when you were fighting against Kotaro. I guessed it right?"

As soon as Genichi's words fell, Ogata nodded gently, indicating that what Genichi had just said was correct.

That night, after fighting against Kotaro and being suppressed by Kotaro who had entered the "Yasha Realm", Ogata really only thought of one thing in his heart.

And what he thought about that night was the same as what he thought when he assassinated and faced the hundreds of guards in the Hirose Clan in the assassination of Matsuhira Genoui and against Matsuhira Genoui: I want to win~www.wuxiahere.com~ Saying--" Mucun suddenly asked, "What does the'Yaksha Realm' look like? Is it just a big increase in power and speed? "

"It's the sharp increase in strength and speed." Ogata corrected. "I don't know much about the'Yasha Realm'. I only know that they have to take a drug called'Yasha Wan' to enter. This state."

"After entering the'Yaksha Realm', their skin will appear dark red, and there will be a thin gas like steam wafting from the body."

"It's like you just came out of the bathhouse."

"Although Kotaro said that only their leader, the Balrog and the Four Heavenly Kings in Shiranui, have this'Yaksha Realm'."

"It's still unclear whether this sentence is true or false."

"Maybe on our way to Edo, the people in Shiranui have developed new ways to increase the production of Yasha Maru, allowing more ninjas under their command to have more Yasha Maru."

"If their Yasha pills produce energy, it would be troublesome..." Mu Cun said in a joke with a somewhat serious tone.

As soon as Makimura's voice fell, a weak female voice suddenly sounded behind him and Ogata:

"Even if the undead of the Balrog has a way to mass-produce the Yasha pills, there is no need to be afraid."

"Our Calabash House still has a way to suppress their ‘Yaksha Realm’."

As soon as this weak female voice sounded, Ogata and Makimura immediately followed the sound and turned their heads.

Lin, who was pale, was slowly walking out of the cabin and walking towards Ogata and the others.

"They have Yasha pills in Shiranui."

"And our gourd house... has this."

After all, Lin with a weird smile on her face raised her hand to make a gesture of "money".
