The place where Ogata was standing just now was six steps away from Guasheng.

Therefore, when Gua Sheng was suddenly pushed down just now, Ogata did not have time to step forward and help Gua Sheng.

After Gua Sheng was pushed down by the official officer who had been changed by the Huo Fu Thief, and his cheek was bruised, Ogata's face instantly darkened.

He walked to Ju Xiaoseng's side at an unhurried speed and grabbed the hand of one of the officials who was planning to take Ju Xiaoseng away.

"Sama." Natori's brows furrowed slightly at this moment, "Please cooperate with me..."

"No." Ogata interrupted loudly, "It's up to you to cooperate with us. Please apologize to Miss Guasheng quickly and leave here. This is the greatest cooperation for us."

"If you really want Ju Xiaoseng, please leave here temporarily."

"Ju Xiaoseng will be stored in the prison of our club for now, and we will slowly negotiate the ownership of Ju Xiaoseng later."

"It can't be done!" Natori shouted loudly, "There is nothing to negotiate!"

"Ju Xiaoseng is the criminal responsible for our Huofu Thief Reform Office."

"In order to catch Ju Xiaoseng, we spent too much energy and manpower. We can't come back empty-handed!"

The commotion among Ogata and others has attracted a lot of onlookers.

The crowd was already surrounded by nearly two floors of passers-by watching the excitement.

Ogata's tone was still calm, "Many of us here have been injured for catching Ju-chan. Do you think we might agree to your behavior of forcibly taking away our credit?"

Natori frowned.

"Don't let me say the same thing too many times! Ju Xiaoseng is the criminal responsible for our Huofu Thief Reform Office! He should be left to us to deal with!"

"We, the thieves, have the privilege of using force against those who obstruct official duties!"

"Even if you are both bureaucrats of the shogunate, we can still use force against you without being held accountable!"

"So please stop getting in our way!"

After saying that, Natori turned his head and winked at the subordinates behind him.

The subordinates who understood the situation drew out their swords from their waists one after another, or clenched the thorns in their hands.

Looking at the menacing gangsters in front of them, the servants around them couldn't help but swallowed, and a bit of fear flashed on their faces.

Even Guasheng's face darkened at this time.

Because she knew that the fire thieves Kai, who were the special armed security forces of the shogunate, really had such privileges.

If they insist that the official officials of the club are hindering them, the official officials who have been changed by the thieves can really use force against them.

Guasheng's face was already full of anxiety at this time, and he didn't know what to do now.

I don’t know if now I should let the official servants of Huofu Thieves Kai take away Kiku Xiaoseng first, and then they wait for Shirobei to come back, and let Shirobei, who is good at negotiating with people, go and slowly negotiate with Huofu Thieves Kai, or should they wait for Shirobei to come back?

Now let's fight for the truth and not give in at all.

Both of these options put Gua Sheng in a dilemma.

The first option is to show weakness to the thieves.

Gua Sheng could not have thought of anything more aggrieved than the criminal he had worked so hard to catch, but was finally taken away by Huo Fu Thieves.

Even if Ju Xiaoseng can be brought back through negotiation in the end, he will definitely be gossiped about and used as a source of laughter in the future.

Not to mention the second line selection.

If we don't give in at all now, some violent conflicts with Huo Fu Thief Kai will inevitably occur.

And their strength is much weaker than this group of people who have been fighting and killing vicious criminals for many years. Although Guasheng is very reluctant to admit it, this is always a fact.

If a violent conflict breaks out, their club will definitely suffer.

Just when anxious sweat appeared on Guasheng's face...

"Is Mr. Hasegawa in Edo now?"

Ogata suddenly spoke up.

He asked Natori a question that seemed to have nothing to do with the situation at the scene.

"Huh?" Natori frowned, "Why do you ask?"

"Nothing, I just want to confirm whether Mr. Hasegawa is in Edo."

"...Hasegawa-sama happens to be in Edo right now." Natori said.

"That's it...that's convenient."

"That..." Kawajiro's voice suddenly sounded.

As a senior member of the club, Kawajiro stood at the back of the club staff.

After he spoke, the eyes of everyone around him naturally fell on him.

"Mashima-kun, let's hand over Kiku-chan to them." Kawajiro said solemnly with a tangled face, "We don't need to make things too big for a prisoner..."

"Since Mr. Natori has promised to give us a thank you gift for helping capture Kiku-chan, then we..."

"Mr. Kawajiro." Before Kawajiro finished speaking, Oburon interrupted him, "This has nothing to do with whether you have received payment or not."

"This is a serious crime that everyone in the club worked together to catch."

"Some people want to take away the honor that rightfully belongs to us without any explanation."

Speaking of this, the faces of Guasheng and others...especially the faces of the club officials who were injured but still insisted on chasing Ju Xiaoseng flashed in Ogata's mind one by one.

"I can't sit back and watch this ridiculous thing happen in front of my eyes."

After saying that, Ogata turned his attention back to Natori and the others in front of him.

"Sir, what you said just now means that if we stop you from taking Ju Xiaoseng away, will you use force against us?"

"You can understand it that way." Natori nodded slightly, "We, the fire thieves, have such privileges."

"Then you said just now that you are not willing to slowly negotiate with us later, right?"

"That's right." A look of impatience began to appear on Natori's face, "We have nothing to negotiate!"

"...It seems that I can no longer make you give up taking credit by sitting down and having a good talk." Ogata said calmly.

"That's enough! I don't want to listen to your nonsense anymore!" Natori shouted as if he no longer had the patience to run out, "Hirata! Ogura! Get this guy out of the way!"

As soon as Natori's order was given, two of the four Fire Pirates standing next to Kiku-chan immediately stepped forward and stretched out their hands to push towards Ogata's chest.

Their actions were very rough.

Ogata was pushed away directly.

But after taking only two steps back, Ouri stopped his retreat.

Ogata's eyes narrowed slightly.

*******

*******

*******

*******

"You guys are taking action..."

This is the moment Ogata has been waiting for.

This is the moment when the officials who were transformed into thieves took action first.

After Ogata muttered softly like this...

bass!

Da Shi Tian was quickly pulled out.

After Ogata pulled out Da Shiten from the scabbard at his waist, he turned the blade and pointed the blade at himself, while the back of the knife pointed at the fire in front of him to punish the thieves and officials.

After pulling out Daishukten at a dizzying speed and turning the blade, Daishukten turned into two afterimages in Ogata's hands and struck at the shoulders of the two officials in front of him.

The two officers screamed in agony, then fell to the ground clutching their shoulders.

"You guy...?!" Natori's eyes widened in shock, and he yelled at the subordinates around him, "Why are you still standing there? Take down this guy who is preventing us from changing the way we deal with thieves to official duties!"

After hearing Natori's roar, Natori's subordinates, who were stunned by Ogata who dared to take action, all stabilized their weapons as if they had just woken up from a dream.

This is not the first time for them to change jobs among thieves.

Therefore, even if there is no order from Natori, they know that even if they can use force against people in the name of "obstructing official business", they cannot casually hurt people's lives.

Therefore, they all took out ten hands, stabbings and other blunt weapons.

Several people who did not have blunt weapons on hand drew the swords from their waists, but like Ogata, they turned the blades and pointed the backs of the swords at Ogata.

Ogata's sudden attack not only shocked Natori and the others, but also shocked the surrounding onlookers, as well as Guanao and the others.

Before Guasheng and others could recover from the shock, Ogata's next move plunged them into even greater shock.

After swinging two swords in succession and knocking down the two officials who had just pushed him, Ogata subconsciously made a "blood shake" movement to shake off the blood, then kicked off his back foot and aimed at the remaining 23 people in front of him.
