Chapter 144: Isn’t It Normal to Eat Popcorn While Watching a Movie (Benizakura Sword Part 4)
Edo Harbor.
"It's already completely dark-aru." Kagura followed behind Sadaharu and looked up at the bright moon in the sky before stopping and yawning.
"Sadaharu, if we don't go back now, Gin-chan and the others will be worried," Kagura shouted at Sadaharu, who was still sniffing and walking, "No, I don't think so. Zura must be fine-aru! He won't die just like that. Let's go back today and continue to look for him tomorrow."
However, just as Kagura finished speaking, he noticed that Sadaharu, who was in front of him, stopped and sat on the ground, staring straight ahead.
"Sadaharu, what's wrong?" Kagura walked forward and came to Sadaharu's side. She asked, "Can you smell Zura from here-aru?"
"Woof!"
At this time, Kagura found that there was a house-shaped boat not far in the sea.
"What is that ship?"
Kagura asked doubtfully. However, just as she finished speaking, she heard footsteps and voices coming from the alley beside her. Without any hesitation, Kagura decisively pulled Sadaharu to hide.
Then, Kagura saw three people walking out from the alley next door as they spoke...
Ronin A, "Hey! Did you find it?"
Ronin B, "No, it must have been a relapse from last time. I always feel that after Mr. Okada went on a business trip last time, his mental state is getting worse and worse..."
Ronin C, "A while ago, someone said that he killed Katsura. If that person really did it, our preaching won't work against him..."
Ronin A, "It's all because you didn't keep an eye on him! In the end, I asked him to take [it] out, in case someone else knew of the existence of [it]..."
Ronin C, "In short, let's return to the ship first..."
...
Watching the group of ronin walk further and further away, Kagura finally walked out from the dark, holding her chin and muttering to himself for a while. Kagura then finally made up her mind.
Kagura takes out her phone. In a very short time, she edited a text message, sent it to Kawaki, and then put the phone in Sadaharu's mouth.
"Sadaharu, take the phone to Gin-chan-aru," Saying this, Kagura touched Sadaharu's head and warned, "Even if you see a cute female dog, you are not allowed to take a detour."
"Woof!" Sadaharu responded, then turned and ran away.
"You can't ride her!"
"Woof!"
Watching Sadaharu run further and further away, Kagura also turned around, lifted her umbrella to the side, and looked at the house-shaped boat not far away.
"Alright, come on!"
...
Let's turn the time back to ten minutes, on the other side.
"Kawaki, this guy is your fan," Gintoki shouted loudly, and at the same time, he looked at Kawaki by the river bank.
This look...
"I didn't expect you to carry so many things with you. You're really amazing, Q Taro." Kawaki sat in the Kotatsu and praised Elizabeth, who was sitting opposite him.
"That's why you, who chose to close your eyes, are destined to miss a lot of things!" Gintoki said as he stood behind Okada. At the same time, he swung out his wooden sword.
"Ah!"... Boom!!
In the end, Okada did not react in time. He was heavily struck by the wooden sword on his back. His huge body flew out like a cannonball and fell straight into the wall beside them.
"Bye-bye, monster," Gintoki said as he swung his wooden sword again.
However...
"Didn't I say it already? It's [We]!" Okada smiled.
At this time, Gintoki found that his body and sword were all entangled by tentacles, and he finally understood that the tentacles had been hidden under the ground the moment he sent Okada flying.
"It should be my turn this time. Bye-bye, Lord White Yaksha..." Okada stood up and waved Benizakura in his hand without waiting for Gintoki to react...
Clang!
"That's it." Kawaki stood in front of Gintoki. He held his umbrella with both hands and took the blow for Gintoki. Then, he began to exert strength and knock Benizakura away.
He turned around slightly and kicked Gintoki to the other side of the river.
"You should rest first..." Kawaki said without turning his head. He stared straight at Okada, who looked like a monster, "Then, it's my turn now!"
"Cough!" Gintoki pulled himself out of the wall and scolded, "Rest your head! I will be seriously injured by you! Shinpachi, come and help me. I feel that my waist is almost broken... and several ribs should be broken... By the way, is there any beef... I feel like I need to replenish some protein..."
...
"Hahaha..." Okada laughed maniacally, "I never thought that I would finally have a chance to fight you. With this sword, I could actually stand in front of you one day! I... am really too lucky!"
"Huh? What nonsense are you saying?" Kawaki was puzzled, but immediately reacted, "Could it be that... you are really my fan? But I'm really sorry, I have never encountered such a situation before. It's also my first time signing something."
As he spoke, Kawaki took out a banknote from his body and signed his name on the paper with a large brush. He handed it to Okada.
"Uh..." Okada, who was laughing wildly, suddenly choked.
"Eh? Is this not okay?" Seeing Okada's expression, Kawaki was puzzled again, "But I really don't have much experience. Oh, right! I've always seen idols holding a handshake event or something. Is that okay?"
As he said that, Kawaki stretched out his right hand and rubbed it on his clothes. He then stretched out his hand in front of Okada and grinned, "Come on, don't be shy!"
"Hey, that guy's idiotic habit is acting up again..." Shinpachi, who was on the shore, ridiculed with a speechless face.
"Don't mind it, don't mind it," Gintoki rubbed his side waist with one hand as he picked up meat from the hot pot, "Seriously, I was not killed by that monster, but was almost killed by another monster. I must ask him for medical expenses next time!"
"You might as well be killed!"
...
"Oh, my. I've really been underestimated." Okada murmured and raised Benizakura again, "Actually, I want to fight with the other you, the one who didn't abandon his sword!"
As he spoke, Okada swung his blade down. At the same time, countless tentacles also rushed toward Kawaki's body.
"You will die..." Kawaki muttered.
"To die in your hands? That would be a great honor."
"I'm not talking about this..." As he spoke, Kawaki finally moved...
Boom!!
