Chapter 341: Going to Edo, the final effort

Zuocun shook his body and walked into one of the rooms in the village without any abnormality.

"Mr. Takeshi, I've been waiting for a long time." Zuocun said sorry to the man and sat opposite him.

"It's okay, what did Mr. Zuocun go out for?" The man sitting opposite Zuocun was a little curious.

He is one of the many people Zuomura knew in Tosa, named Takeshi Banheita, and he is a few of the Tosa people who are indeed quite powerful.

Now the whole country is discussing the word "existence of the barbarians". If Ii Naoki dies, the situation will probably be even more chaotic.

But... Zuocun understood that this was just the last chaos before dawn.

The new era will not be too far away, and chaos will always come forward and end.

Zuocun wanted to be this person, and Banpingta, who was sitting opposite Zuocun, also wanted to be this person.

Takeshi Ruiyama is a well-known swordsman in Tosa. The swordsmanship he practices and teaches are all "one-sword flow".

It was not the exquisite sword technique of Beichen Yishaoliu, but Wushi Banpingta used the ordinary Yishaoliu to the extent that Zuocun was amazed.

He is a powerful person and is one of the few people who know Zuocun. He can be a little sober in this troubled world, rather than thinking about assassinating trouble all day long.

"It's just that I'm going out to go to the toilet, so Jun Wu Shi doesn't have to mind." Zuocun pretended to cover his stomach, making his stomach feel uncomfortable.

Wushi Banpingta smiled: "Zuocunjun should also pay attention to his body. Our body is used to change and redemption this country."

"I understand." Zuocun also smiled.

His sword has become sharper in the past two years, but some things have improved more quickly than the sword.

Zuocun learned to communicate with people instead of drawing his sword at any time.

However, he just went out to use the bathroom and took some time to kill Ii Naoki, which was due to some reason.

He naturally had already investigated the route of Ii Naochi's journey, but the key was... this old guy had to bring more than 60 armed forces every time he went out. It would be very difficult for Zuomura to kill Ii Naochi without being noticed and then withdraw.

He doesn't want to be exposed yet. Although the title of Feather Ghost Sword is stupid, it can provide him with a considerable degree of convenience in a sense.

The purpose of his killing of Ii Naoki was to... put Japan into a certain degree of chaos.

As long as it becomes messy, it will be much more convenient for him to do a lot of things.

And those patriots who were ambushing there in advance and pretending to complain to actually assassinate were also expected by Zuocun.

Originally, Zuocun could have left the matter and not be involved in the assassination of Ii Naochi, so that those patriots would just kill them. However, Zuocun was a little worried that these patriots could kill Ii Naochi under the protection of 60 people, so Zuocun would choose to do it himself.

Thunder attacked and directly killed Naochi Ii, then killed all the soldiers who noticed him, and then returned quickly.

In order to not expose his identity, he only brought the sword and the feathers of Pheasant. He hid the sheath of the Crane and Pheasant in the same place, and temporarily chose a scabbard of ordinary color.

In less than half an hour, Zuocun completed the assassination, and then returned here as if nothing had happened and continued to communicate with Banpingtai, Wu City.

"Tushi Jun, I have to go to Edo, so I won't stay here too much." Zuomura and Takeshi Banheita communicated for a while, and chose to get up and say goodbye.

"Is that true? Then, I wish you a good journey." Wushi Banpingta didn't think too much about trying to keep him.

Today, the two of them discussed together and managed the so-called "patriots" who were like headless flies, like headless flies, every day, burned the embassy of this country, and smashed the offices of that country.

But there is no good solution now. Even if someone calls him as he climbs a high place, there will be no response. Zuocun may be able to do it. After all, it is the "Feather Ghost Sword" officially certified many years ago, but there will be no fewer doubts.

So, the two had to simply draft a "Faction Establishment Book" and thought about returning to Tosa later to make plans.

Zuocun looked at Wushi Banpingta, smiled, walked out of the room, turned around, but with a little sad face and frowned.

"Expel the barbarians..."

This topic of hot discussion among patriots across the country, Zuocun sneered.

It is impossible to succeed in expelling the barbarians. The door to Japan has been opened. If you want to close it again, you have to ask the Americans and the Russians whether they agree or not.

Zuocun's evaluation of "extinguishing the barbarians" is to make a fuss about consequences. If you want to innovate, you can't find the right direction. You can only find a common enemy and let these foreigners be the targets of passionate blood that patriots have nowhere to vent.

However, these so-called "patriots" have never thought clearly about the consequences of expelling the barbarians.

Zuocun has learned a lot of navigation knowledge in the past two years, and has also learned how terrifying military forces outside Japan are through some channels.

Japan is weak, and in the face of these powerful countries, its force is not worth mentioning at all. If others don’t hit you, they just look down on you. But if you really choose to touch the tiger’s butt, do you see if my warship is driving over?

Zuocun was still very tolerant of foreigners. He basically stayed in the fields throughout 1859. While looking for some physical work to make some money, he also found a Dutch who could speak Japanese to teach him Dutch. Now he has learned Dutch.

In Zuomura's view, opening the country's doors and giving Japan a channel to communicate with the outside world is one of the few correct decisions made by the shogunate over the years, although this decision was made by others.

Zuocun has never publicly expressed his position, but following the choice is the best way.

After all, the purpose of all is to... destroy the shogunate.

A cold light flashed in Zuocun's eyes.

After Ii Naohito died, some of the rights that Tokugawa Ieshima were undermined would be returned to his hands. It was heard that Tokugawa Ieshima was also a respectable monarch, but these were not enough to become a stumbling block for Zuomura's determination to fall.

In this chaotic time, the shogunate could no longer be saved, and the incompetent image and the general who could not be removed from others' mercy have become a way to hinder everything.

This is...a choice of history.

The destination of this trip to Zuo Village is Edo.

There were many patriots gathering there, but that was not Zuocun's goal.

His goal is just an inconspicuous swordsmanship outside Edo Castle.

He didn't want to give up his previous relationship, he wanted to make...the final effort.
Chapter completed!
