"...What a surprise."

"Mother, what do you mean?"

"As of yesterday, whenever I mentioned Sheng Qing, you would always persuade me to leave Edo in a roundabout way. Today you were particularly quiet and did not persuade me to evacuate again. For a while, I felt a little uncomfortable."

"Oh, this..."

Tokugawa Iemo smiled.

"I gave up."

"Now that things have happened, I have to admit that your stubbornness, mother, is even more stubborn than mine."

"I can't convince you on my own."

"Although I am very reluctant, I can only give up."

"However, instead, I have made up my mind: I will protect you until the end!"

As he spoke, he raised his hand to touch the tachi on his waist and spoke firmly.

Hearing this, Tianzhang Yuan frowned lightly, with a look of displeasure on his face.

Then, she opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something or refute something.

But at this moment——

Boom!

There was an explosion in the distance!

In an instant, both mother and son's expressions changed.

In the next breath, they stood up and ran to the window not far away in three steps and two steps at a time. They lay down on the window and followed the sound towards the explosion.

In a town north of Edo Castle, thick black smoke floated into the distant sky... There were flames burning beneath the thick smoke.

This explosion is not an isolated "instance".

Wuwuwuwu...!

Tokugawa Iemo faintly heard a sharp "wuwuwu" sound coming from the sky, which seemed to be the sound of breaking wind.

Before he looked up——

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Cannonballs rained down into Edo Town!

Explosions destroyed the house and silence!

The flames rose... The orange fire lit up and became the most vivid color in Edo nowadays!

Tokugawa Iemo watched all this with a livid face and murmured:

"Coming...!"
