quiet……

After the young man who called himself Toyotomi Nobhide finished his unique self-introduction, the cell fell into a slightly eerie silence.

Hasegawa first looked at Toyotomi blankly for a few times, and then he looked at Toyotomi up and down with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Oh." Toyotomi curled his lips at this moment, "Your reaction is very dull."

"I'm a little disappointed. I thought you would show some interesting expression changes after hearing my self-introduction just now."

"I'm not interested in your name. I just want to know where this place is?" Hasegawa asked in a deep voice, "And why am I being imprisoned here?"

"Oh, you are worthy of being the commander of the Hufu Thief Kai." Toyotomi showed a very graceful smile again, "When I woke up, I found that I was being held in a completely unfamiliar place, but I didn't panic at all. Just this

His character is far beyond that of ordinary people."

"Don't worry, Mr. Hasegawa, I don't have any ill intentions towards you, and I don't have any intention of harming you."

"All your subordinates are fine now. They are all being kept elsewhere and being fed and fed well."

Although Toyotomi said this, Hasegawa's expression did not relax at all, and he still looked like he was facing a formidable enemy.

"...Are you and Sengenji together?" Hasegawa asked.

Hearing Hasegawa's question, Toyotomi's brows jumped slightly.

Hasegawa then continued:

"The words 'Buddhist supplies from Sengenji Temple were stolen' were just bait to lure me to Mount Koya, right? After you lured me to your territory, you immediately set up a plan to capture me."

"Otherwise, there is no way to explain why when we first arrived in Koya Town, someone found our whereabouts so quickly and accurately, and drugged our meals."

"...Hahaha, is this a keen intuition cultivated by catching too many thieves?" Toyotomi clapped his hands a few times, "Your inference is absolutely correct!"

"Xianyuan Temple was our partner a long time ago."

"The false claim that 'Buddhist supplies from Xianyuan Temple were stolen' is to lure you to our territory so that we can catch you easily."

"...Why do you do this?" Hasegawa's face became increasingly gloomy, "Is it because you have a grudge against me, so you want to take revenge on me?"

"If I wanted to take revenge on you, I wouldn't let you live in such a nice place." Toyotomi nuzzled at the tatami at Hasegawa's feet, "Please forgive me for unconsciously knocking you out and then knocking you out

What a reckless move to bring here.”

"The reason why I did this is for no other reason than to let you join us."

Toyotomi is tall, about 170m.

He bent his body forward slightly, placed his hands on the fence between him and Hasegawa, and made his eyesight level with Hasegawa, who was slightly shorter than him.

"Mr. Hasegawa, the self-introduction I just made was actually just a half-hearted joke to tease you and see if you would show any interesting expressions."

"I don't have many hobbies. One of my only hobbies is seeing interesting expressions on other people's faces."

"I am not a religious person, and I have no interest in sleeping with men."

"It's a lie to want to bring a good man into your house."

"But it is true that I want to recruit good men under my command."

"I like excellent men best."

"When I see outstanding men, I want to take them under my wing and use them for my own use."

"You manage Huo Fu Thief Kai, and you are also a manager. You should be able to understand my thirst for talent."

"Mr. Hasegawa, I have been interested in you a long time ago."

"The previous Huo Fu Thieves Kai was just an ordinary team."

"But until you became the commander of the Huo Fu Thieves Kai, this team quickly grew at an astonishing speed into a powerful force that makes countless thieves fearful."

"I have no shortage of strong generals under my command who can fight one against ten or one against a hundred."

"But there is a shortage of generals like you who are good at management and training troops."

"If we want to regain the throne of the world, generals like you are indispensable."

"I have wanted to take you under my wing for a long time."

"Until recently, I was finally able to spare my energy and time to try to subdue you."

As soon as Toyotomi finished speaking, Hasegawa's expression changed slightly.

"You just said... to regain the throne of the people in the world?"

"Oh, Mr. Hasegawa, don't show such a scary expression." Toyotomi shrugged, "I'm just getting back what belongs to me."

"Have you forgotten the name I just gave you?"

"I am a descendant of the Toyotomi clan from 200 years ago."

"To us, the Toyotomi clan, taking back the throne of the world is just a just battle to take back what belongs to us."

"Descendants of the Toyotomi clan?" Hasegawa could no longer maintain a calm expression at this time, "How is that possible! The Toyotomi clan was exterminated 200 years ago during the Osaka Summer Battle!"

"That's the truth, believe it or not."

"Now I am too lazy to repeat to outsiders the story of how our Toyotomi family struggled to survive the Osaka Summer Battle 200 years ago and survive to this day."

Toyotomi said calmly.

"In short, in order to regain the throne of the world, I need generals like you."

"Mr. Hasegawa, I won't tell you too much. I'll just tell you the benefits you can get after joining me!"

"As long as you can join my employ, I will immediately give you a new salary!"

"The amount of salary... is tentatively set to be five times the amount of salary you are currently serving in the shogunate!"

"And I promise you that as long as you can make enough achievements for me, I will be very happy to grant you a great name."

"At that time, I will also strongly support you in developing the football field!"

After hearing Toyotomi's words, Hasegawa's expression changed uncontrollably.

"Mr. Hasegawa, I know that you overcame all the opposition and opened this training center to teach prisoners skills."

“Although it was successfully opened, it is still struggling due to lack of support.”

"For you to work so hard to build and operate a football stadium, this football stadium must have some extraordinary significance to you, right?"

"I'm actually quite interested in this. Why do you have to work so hard to build and operate the airport? Obviously as long as you don't do this, your life will be much easier now."

Hasegawa fell silent.

Seeing that Hasegawa was silent, Toyotomi grinned.

"Don't be so wary of me. Just treat it as a casual chat between friends."

"Talk to me more and get to know me better, it will only be good for you now, isn't it?"

"... When I was young, I was a libertine who only knew how to eat, drink, whore, and gamble, and who only squandered my family property. The only serious thing I could do in my daily life was to practice swordsmanship." Hasegawa said slowly after another moment of silence,

"This kind of indulgent and sensual life, hanging around casinos and traveling for many years, has allowed me to get to know people from all walks of life... no, all kinds of people."

"A serious young man from the martial arts family, a handsome young man who had to sell himself due to debt, a wealthy businessman who slept with thousands of women...and a fool who had to commit crimes again and again because he lacked any skills."

"There are two types of criminals in the world."

"The first type is a born bad person who has no psychological burden for doing bad things and even enjoys committing crimes."

"Criminals of this type are hopeless."

"The second type of criminal is a fool who is confused and accidentally goes astray."

"This kind of criminal can be saved and can be brought back to the right path."

"During the time I spent hanging out in casinos, casinos, and other messy places, I got to know a lot of these idiots."

“Some people steal money because they want to treat their parents’ illnesses, and some people steal money because they really can’t find a job...”

"The vast majority of them have the same characteristic and lack the skills to make a living."

"Some people have no choice but to take risks and commit crimes because they lack the skills to make a living."

"They also know that if they steal or rob, they will go to jail, but in order to survive, they have no other choice."

“I stole and robbed because I lacked the skills to make a living, and then I was imprisoned. After I came out of prison, my lack of skills to make a living was still not improved, so I could only continue to steal and rob... It’s an endless cycle.”

"They are the kind of 'neglected people' who are ignored by the government and ignored by people. No one is willing to stand up for them and help them get out of this cycle of death where they can only live by committing crimes."

"I was deeply touched by the plight of these poor people."

"So I stopped being a libertine and officially entered the official career when I was 30 years old."

"As long as we can give them a skill, many idiots can be saved and they will no longer take risks and commit crimes. It is with this concept that I established the Human Foot Yard."

Toyotomi listened carefully all the time.

After Hasegawa finished speaking, Toyotomi smiled and clapped vigorously.

"So this is the reason why you worked so hard to establish and operate a football field."

"The people of Li respectfully call you 'Jin Dagang', and you are indeed right."
