Himiko said so, making Kenshin Uesugi unable to unsheath the sword that was about to swing down.

Kyushu Island has a strict system of monarchs and ministers, and Himiko is essentially the blood of the royal family. She has sworn loyalty to the royal family and she can't kill Admiral Tokugawa, otherwise she will violate Himiko's order, which is a sin of seppuku.

Uesugi Kenshin pursed his lips, gritted his teeth silently, and reluctantly moved half a step away.

"Thank you." Admiral Tokugawa said a few words of greeting with a smile on his face, walked around Uesugi Kenshin, stepped into the torii gate, entered the inside of the shrine, crossed the path of worship, and walked to the main hall... He is not a heroic spirit, Therefore, I can't feel the dragon vein breath spreading in the atmosphere at all.

Inside the shrine, the energy emitted by the natural disaster monsters can even make people's skin feel real tingling. Pity, and even more extreme rejection of these parasites whose number exceeds [-] million.

Inside the hall, there is an empty space.

The priestesses had already stopped the Kagura dance and retreated one after another, leaving only Himiko sitting in the quiet room.

Her pupils lingering with three-color rays of light stared at Tokugawa. The principles of heroic spirits held by her, who possessed three different divine domains, were of a rare compound nature, so it was extremely difficult to grasp. She said slowly: "What do you say? Yes, I heard it all."

"I thought His Highness would spend a few more days, but now it seems that I have given up." Tokugawa smiled lowly: "As I thought, instead of kneeling down to this unreliable earth, it is better to rely on Fight for another piece of more fertile land with your own strength..."

"Have you considered the feelings of the people?" Himiko asked quietly.

"The public? It's just a group of short-sighted people, and it's hard for a mob to make a big deal. What's more, this matter is not harmful to them. As long as we make the facts public, they have no reason to object." Tokugawa said lightly: " If His Highness is worried about the original residents of Koryo, it is completely unnecessary. They have nowhere to escape, and the total number of the remaining ones does not exceed one million. Fusion, up to three generations, can be completely integrated in less than a hundred years, turning them into a branch of the Yamato nation."

"Then, what about external resistance?"

"External resistance is even more nonsense... How powerful is the battle of demon survey, even a colossus like Shenzhou Tsarist Russia needs the strength of the whole country to barely resist the offensive. This battle is destined to be the most difficult war in history, and it may continue. For half a year or even several years, this will be a war of attrition based on human life until the last soldier is killed, otherwise there will be no compromise and surrender... This is a competition for survival." Tokugawa sneered: " Even the Scythe of Judgment doesn't have time to govern, now, when the war is over, everything will be settled, and what we swallow will not be spit out again."

"Then... the world is an enemy?" Himiko asked, "Who doesn't know the wolf's ambition?"

"You are too worried. After the war, who has the strength to continue to start the war, none of them can do it. It will take how many years it will take to restore the national strength. After ten or twenty years, no one will mention this matter. It’s over, at most it will be recorded in history.” He tapped his knees: “Even in the records of history, we are the ones who have the last laugh.”

He is confident, and the facts are exactly what he says.

Indeed, wolfish ambition will be forgiven at this time. With the passage of time, everything is as indifferent as running water.

Himiko sat quietly.

Has she no ambition?No, of course she will... When she supported hundreds of millions of people in Kyushu Island for decades, and when she worked hard to hold sacrifices to prevent the natural disaster monsters from awakening, she gave not only time, but also many heavy price.

How relieved she would be if she could be freed from these two heavy responsibilities.

As long as they compete for the territory of other countries, at least they can be freed from this suffocating pressure, and they can even expand their territory. This is a great achievement that can be recorded in the history of Kyushu Island. How glorious is it?

But...but.

This piece of land under our feet is our home, and she can't do it if she simply chooses to give up; but her spirit is already on the verge of its limit, and the spirit of the heroic spirit has exhausted all its strength and cannot continue to suppress it.

If it is slow, it will take ten days, or if it is fast, it will be three days, and the behemoth under your feet will wake up.

She ran out of time, and the only way left was human sacrifice. She had struggled a long time ago to decide that human sacrifice was her younger sister, Saki Asama, but now there was not enough time for her to grow up...

This made her breathe a sigh of relief, she felt less guilty, and added a lot of bitterness.

"I will not give up Kyushu Island." Himiko said: "As for whether to seize other countries' land by force, it is you...no, it is the choice of the people of the whole country...as long as they are willing to leave here, I will never object."

"..." Tokugawa narrowed his eyes, and Himiko's attitude caused him some headaches. In his vision, only by completely giving up the idea of ​​revitalizing Kyushu Island can all the citizens be encouraged to take a big gamble... But if Kyushu Island still In China, the confidence and motivation are naturally insufficient. Without the strong will of all the people, it is difficult for the plan to be fully implemented.

But... that's to be expected.

Tokugawa was silent for a while, and said, "It's no accident, you still think this way...then let's make a deal."

"Deal?" Himiko didn't think he had the bargaining chip to impress him.

"Human sacrifices need heroic spirits." Tokugawa smiled when talking about the life business: "I happen to have a heroic spirit here, which meets the needs."

Himiko's breath stagnates: "How could you have..."

"This heroic spirit is quite special. There has been no sign of awakening before, but this time she accidentally awakened the principle of a heroic spirit. Anyway, she was supposed to die on the battlefield, so it would be appropriate to let her play a little bit of heat now." Tokugawa said lightly: "I I will prepare the materials for human sacrifice for you, and you will fully support me in taking the territory of Koryo, it will not do any harm to you or me, on the contrary, we will have the best of both worlds, killing two birds with one stone."

Two birds with one stone is one of the favorite words of neon people, and everyone is happy to see a win-win situation.

This is the bargaining chip he has prepared, enough to impress Himiko.

As Snake said, Tokugawa thinks she has no reason to refuse, and his eyes are full of fire... Hurry up and agree, and then we will open up a new era together, and your name and mine will be engraved on the documents of history On, worshiped by countless people.

"That Heroic Spirit, did you bring it?"

"Anxin, this is not a lie. She is a precious material. My subordinates injected her with medicine to make her fall asleep." De Chuan said lightly, "I can have someone send her here for you to confirm, as long as You promised cooperation between us."

Himiko made some movements, and she opened her eyes: "Let me see the 'material' in your mouth, and I will consider whether to agree or not."

"Your Highness, why should you be so narrow-minded during the negotiation." Tokugawa sneered and took out a test tube and threw it over: "This is the blood sample I took. You are a heroic spirit. You should be aware of whether there is a heroic spirit flowing in this blood." reason."

Himiko picked up the test tube. It was the blood of a heroic spirit. Although it was very thin, it was indeed a first-order heroic spirit...meeting the requirements of the sacrifice.

She lowered the test tube slowly, pushing it back under Tokugawa's feet.

Admiral Tokugawa frowned, was he rejecting his request?Is the purity of the blood not high enough?Did the snake fool him?

"It is indeed the blood of a heroic spirit." Himihu said, "It meets the requirements of the sacrifice."

"Then your answer..."

"I refuse." She refused coldly: "I never make deals with people like you, not in the past, and not now."

"Heh..." Tokugawa laughed when he heard the words, and laughed grimly. He raised his head and laughed loudly: "It's really funny, what a ridiculous reason... Do you know what the consequences of rejecting me are?"

"Of course I know." Himihu said lightly, "It's just a trip to hell."

"Are you in such a hurry to die?" Tokugawa asked, "When you die, you will lose everything. You don't want to take the place of the dead ghost?"
