Chapter 205 The Jade Pot's Ultimate Dream of Passing Through the Lungs
"In short, even if Kennoyu doesn't take action, we must protect the safety of Kyoto."
Kondo Isami pinched the bridge of his nose, stopping everyone from making sarcastic remarks.
The security situation in Kyoto right now is really bad, and it's quite surreal.
For some reason, the Satsuma Domain, which had cooperated closely with them and stood on the side of the shogunate last time, is now sending their demon swordsmen to cause trouble here.
Matsudaira Yasutaka inquired about this matter with the Satsuma Domain's office in Kyoto, and was told that these demon swordsmen were not considered samurai in their Satsuma Domain.
To put it bluntly, these oni warriors with crescent moon family crests embroidered on their sleeves are ronin.
"This is utterly absurd! A bunch of samurai who don't even have a lord, yet they have family crests?"
The collapse of ritual and music often signifies that the world has reached a point of extreme chaos.
Influenced by the shogunate's appeasement policy, its weak and powerless attitude towards foreigners made the people of Sakura increasingly despise these former aristocratic classes.
The world's attention is now focused on Kyoto, where various parties are vying for power over the so-called "rectification of names," each wanting to move into the Imperial Palace to gain a voice and promote their own ideas.
He advocated for the emperor's authority and the expulsion of foreigners, and for the overthrow of the shogunate. Recently, he also heard that the shogunate had proposed a new idea: the unification of the court and the military.
Kondo Isami was a little confused by the jumbled thoughts in his mind, but there was one thing he knew: a lot of strange guys had recently appeared in Kyoto.
For example, Yamanami Keisuke, who had never been interested in Yukimura Chizuru, started visiting Chizuru's house frequently after meeting her father, a bald man named Yukimura Tsunamichi.
He had asked Yamanami Keisuke why he did this, since many people in the team liked this girl.
He didn't want to see the brothers fall out because of jealousy and rivalry among women in the Shinsengumi.
The other party's answer surprised him.
"Kondo-nii, Tsunami-sama and I are researching a medicine that can greatly enhance the strength of our Shinsengumi!"
"Once this is successful, our strength will reach that of the first generation of Sword Master in a short period of time!"
Seeing the usually composed Yamanami Keisuke staring at him with such fervor, Kondo Isami was not pleased, but rather filled with worry.
His martial arts master, Huameiwan, once said that everything comes at a price.
Can he match the strength of the first generation of samurai? Equal to Lord Sugen? Are you kidding me?
"Ah, it's really an eventful time."
The companions had shifted their focus from criticizing Kenjiro to discussing current events in Kyoto and across the country.
Kondo Isami, however, did not participate. Instead, he turned his gaze to the window, watching the withered leaves slowly drifting down from the sky.
Is there still hope for the shogunate...?
Meanwhile, at Yukimura Chizuru's house.
After closing the door and windows, Yukimura Tsuna, with candlelight reflecting off his head, solemnly placed a teapot on the table.
"Lord Gyokuko, I have already started contacting the Shinsengumi samurai as you instructed. Give me some more time, and I believe they will all accept our divine medicine."
On the wooden platform behind Yukimura Tsunado, there was a row of test tubes containing a dark blue liquid.
Boo hoo hoo...
“Very good. As long as they know about the Rejuvenating Water and understand its powerful effects, that will be enough.”
The sound came from the pot, sounding eerie and unsettling.
Yukimura Tsuna's Adam's apple bobbed as he thought that from now on, Lord Gyokuko would just talk to him like this.
Every time he saw that distorted face, he felt a chill run down his spine.
The eyes are the mouth, the mouth is the eyes, and the baby's hands are waving around the body. He really couldn't accept this kind of shape, nor did he understand why Master Yuhu called it art.
But he knew that as long as he obeyed the orders, he could obtain the prescription that would allow his people to continue.
The two major oni clans of Satsuma, the Kazama family and the Yukimura family, have now all joined Gengetsu-kan, which is under the command of Lord Tsugikuni Iwakatsu.
Both families felt deeply honored to be appreciated by the adults and recognized as demons born to walk in the sunlight, a title that bestowed upon them the title of nobility among demons.
Long ago, the two demon ancestors of the Kazama and Yukimura families, after arduous research, finally cured the "disease" that prevented them from being exposed to sunlight and forced them to eat people for survival.
Although they have lost much of the power they had when they were sick, they are still much stronger than ordinary people and can live up to 200 years.
However, they have one fatal flaw: their reproductive rate is shockingly low.
In order to maintain their race, the two demon clans had to intermarry with mortals, which led to their bloodlines becoming increasingly mixed.
Fortunately, more than twenty years ago, they met Lord Tsugikuni Iwakatsu.
Not only did he teach them how to purify their bloodline, but he also recruited the entire two families as retainers.
You must know, this lord is a noble samurai who has lived from the Warring States period to the present day!
"Lord Gyokuko, I've always wondered why such a potion with such severe side effects would be given to the Shinsengumi samurai?"
"Wouldn't it be better to give Satsuma its own army? That way, the whole world could be ours."
Reflecting on his family history, Yukimura Tsuna asked the question that had been puzzling him for a long time.
Shura's Rejuvenating Water comes from the secret medicine of Lord Gyokukō, a close friend of Lord Kokukatsu.
After ingesting it, it can grant an ordinary person power that is close to that of a demon.
However, after consuming it, a True Qi Warrior can become even more powerful.
There is only one side effect: the more you drink, the faster your lifespan is consumed.
Even drinking too much at once can turn you into dust within a dozen seconds.
"The world? What use is the world? Can it grant you immortality? Can it transform you into an eternal carp?"
Could it even transform you into a magnificent dragon, soaring through the sky, overlooking the earth, with a perfect form?
Yukimura Tsuna was speechless, and the jade pot hidden inside the pot couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
But the next second, he began to admire Lord Sakura Dragon's skill from the bottom of his heart.
To think that Kokushibo could be so obedient and cooperative, Lord Sakura Ryu is truly amazing!
It's as if I've transformed into a carp, forever staying by Lord Sakura Dragon's side, quietly lurking at the bottom of the water, looking up at Lord Sakura Dragon's jade feet playing in the water.
Then, suck all the water that flowed over Lord Sakura Dragon's jade feet into your mouth for a top-notch lung-clearing experience!
"That's all you need to do. The people from Satsuma will then cooperate with you to ensure that all the Shinsengumi samurai eventually take this potion."
What happened after they finished drinking?
"Of course, it's about burning oneself to make the adult's earthly body grow even faster... Oh~"
"Oops, I accidentally let it slip~"
Shhhhhh.
