A little while back, 5 years of celebration (1600) August 25th -

The man was stunned in a small port town called Shangguan Port in the surrounding country (now Yamaguchi Prefecture).

A little outfit, little eyes. I'm dressed in armor for once, but I'm not overdressed to say it doesn't look good at all.

One of three letters from Toyotomi Hideyoshi had been delivered to the man.

From noon onwards, the name of the man who holds the liquor is Yoshio Otomo.

Though he was the son of Sorin Otomo (and Sorin) who kept his name in Kyushu (Chaku what), his character and track record were themselves foolish.

After the expropriation of territory by touching the reverse scales of the late Toyotomi Hideyoshi, he had become a troublemaker of various great names, but each time he had been expelled from them.

And on the brink of the battle of Sekigahara was under Osaka Castle, where he was given a small mansion and lived secluded with the consideration of the Go-service that "one day it might be of some use".

It was Huiyuan Maori and Sansei Ishida who gave him such a turning point.

To speak of him as a fool, the name "Otomo" still has a certain influence in Toyomae (now Oita Prefecture) in Kyushu. Especially for the anti-Christian wanderers and some radical peasants who had rebelled against his father, Lord Sorin, the Otomo lineage was a worthy figure to speak of as his master.

In an attempt to make good use of the matter, they give proper roadblocks to their righteousness and instruct them to "rebel in abundance". Both Huiyuan and Mitsune are well known to have Kato Kiyosei and Kuroda Rushui in Tokugawa. No matter how influential Mr. Otomo may be in abundance, it is more obvious than to see the fire tear away before their armies.

But even that was only a small trigger of a major plan for Huiyuan and Mitsune. In other words, it was a signal for Shimazu to stand.

If Shimazu, the largest force in Kyushu, moves to rescue Otomo in distress, the West Army can completely control Kyushu.

We had such a grand plan together.

But the intention of Shimazu Yoshiku, the master, was not at all creepy there...

In other words, Yoshio Otomo was the "bait" to attract Shimazu.

But the person in question did not even think about it. "Finally, my luck has turned," he said joyfully bravely.

Because he had a great ambition to "rebuild your home" from the day he was confiscated of his territory. It goes without saying that it came from a strong sense of inferiority towards his great father, Sorin Otomo. That force, which grew up in my father's place, crushes me in my own... he couldn't forgive himself for that fact.

But I didn't want to have to admit that I couldn't do anything with such ambition.

When did he become sober, and because of that, the great famous men were going to laugh at him?

On such a one-of-a-kind opportunity to fulfill his ambitions, he jumped without a single thing, obeyed his life, and was aiming for Kyushu all the way.

Along the way, Yoshihiro Toshiyuki, a former minister who belonged to Tachibana Somo (Tachibana Murashiki), came to such an indulgence. Because his son Otomo Ikari, the current owner of Otomo, thought he should be cautious about acting against righteousness by riding in the mouth of people like Maori and Ishida.

But even in such a loyal adage,

"What are you like? Who are you talking to?"

And, as he looked down, he hastened west without stopping his feet.

"Oh... if Lord Sorin were here, what would have been done..."

Tomoyuki Yoshihiro moaned and wept so much that he came after Yoshiyuki Otomo in a grievous readiness to reward his late Sorin Otomo for his benevolence.

Such Yoshihiro Toshiyuki begins to read the contents aloud when he takes one of the letters spilled from the hands of Yoshio Otomo.

The voice shivered as I looked at it.

It's a strange feeling, I can't even tell if it's due to fear or emotion or the person of the day.

――

Isn't that why you're using the silver I gave you to fight?

That is a big mistake.

If you are going to use a piece of gold that can be described as the shape of the late Tai Chi that should be used for peace in the world, to kill people, then speech is off.

If I discover it, I'll have to snap my neck.

Don't forget about this.

It's time to show Otomo his power in this world.

If we help Kato and Kuroda and focus all our efforts on peace in Kyushu, hopes will be long gone.

――

Tomoyuki Yoshihiro was stunned.

Its contents were sufficient to defeat the morale of Yoshio Otomo's "rebellion in Kyushu".

But it is not the only one that gives firm and next purpose and even mentions the consequences.

Who the hell drafted this letter… his thoughts extend to this point.

It's just a little fire, because that boy's royal highness can't say no to the rebellion of the Otomo brother-in-law.

When that happens, there must be someone on his side who understands how much the world is.

But as far as he knew, it was hard to come up with such a person.

Without worrying about such a patrol, my husband, Yoshio Otomo, has a bright blue face, to the Minister, Tomoki Yoshihiro.

"I... what am I supposed to do...?

And asked weakly. That being said, he smells the liquor he left beside him.

"Ugh," Toshiyuki Yoshihiro sighed loudly, in response to that question, returning it with a question.

"Does Toyoko (about Yoshio Otomo) want to have his neck hung by His Highness?

Yoshio Otomo looks resentful with his bright red, congested eyes at a question that can also be regarded as disgusting.

He replied with a trembling voice.

"I don't know... let's just leave it to ourselves..."

"... If so, there will be an answer"

To that question, Yoshio Otomo drops his shoulder and drips his head (Kobe).

It meant the moment his selfish ambitions were struck.

Yoshihiro Toshiyuki, on the other hand, had an indescribable emotion that his master, who did not have the ear to hear him even try to persuade him, had even his heart shattered by just one letter.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a weak-crowned 7-year-old boy, was mixed with his impression of the magnitude of influence and his vain to powerlessness.

Everywhere in the blue sky, the voice of seabirds is dedicated.

The time of silence of the Lord's obedience lasted for a while...

It is in that.

A man came outside the chamber where he was obedient by visiting the Otomo Indochi.

He looked like a traveler, but the two knives on his hips showed his identity.

"The awkward are Kuroda Rushui-sama's users. I'd like to take you back to Lord Otomo Toyosuko."

The bright and joyful voice seems to tell the talent of the man.

While he was in hiding, Yoshihiro Toshiyuki had to have heartbreaking thoughts about the strength of Rushui Kuroda, who could send such a person as a user.

Now that it is scattered, I think of the army of Otomo, who once held its name in Kyushu.

But he regains his mind and speaks to the youth of his use.

"The hall is here. If you need anything, you can come in."

"Ha! Thank God Happy!

Then the young man, who had come to the front of the Otomo brotherhood to flow, offered a single letter.

"I have kept this from Rushui-sama Kuroda!

The Otomo brother-in-law, who is still not here, is letting his eyes swim in such a way that he doesn't even realize it. Tongxiao, who was next door in his place, received the writ.

I don't even need to see the contents.

It would have encouraged my husband, Yoshio Otomo, to stop Toyotomi from entering.

At first glance, it was exactly what it was about.

He told the youth of use in a clear tone, without even giving the writ to his husband.

"Unfortunately, I can't follow this letter!

Perhaps it was because it was an answer as expected, and no surprise or thoughtlessness can be conveyed from a young man with a low head. Toshiyuki continued when he saw it. The voice contained an unfortunate "I messed with you a little but you're boring" but it was generally a pleasant one.

"But reassure me. Otomo Toyoko Samurai, who is here, was cut off from Lord Maori and Ishida Yakitori!

In the future, we intend to work with Lord Kuroda and Lord Kato to dedicate ourselves to peace in Kyushu!

Young man of use with an immediate face up to the word.

I didn't expect it. I don't think my mouth is blocked by the content of the answer.

And Otomo Ichigo, who sits beside himself, is also as nagging as he thought, but he found that a glow was returning to his eyes for his new mission.

Yeah, I've been struggling to taste this moment.

For the first time in his life, Tongxiao, who had continued to suffer from spicy acidity, was immersed in a pleasant sense of accomplishment to taste.

It became a smile that no one had ever seen before.

"My husband and I are going to have a delicious drink tonight. Ha ha!

And, Toshiyuki kept laughing from the bottom of his heart.
