General's City.
The fifth floor of the castle tower, the main hall.
The air here is frozen solid, like a thick block of ice.
The portraits of generals from past dynasties hanging on the wall silently gazed down at those below in the dim light.
Even those stern faces seemed to carry a hint of confusion.
General Mao Mao sat in the main seat.
He gripped the folding fan tightly on his knee with his right hand.
This young general, who was known for his simplicity and straightforwardness, had fine beads of sweat on his forehead at this moment.
His gaze was fixed on the space images on the television screen in front of him.
All that could be seen were more than two hundred points of light representing the Shogunate's self-defense fleet.
They spread out neatly, silently, and obediently to both sides.
Make way for those nearly six hundred glaring red dots to make way for the passage to Earth.
"Still unable to contact Commander Mido?"
General Mao Mao's voice was filled with barely concealed tension and heaviness.
"No response on any frequency band, General."
A communications officer shook his head with a helpless expression.
"rebel!"
The current police commissioner, Matsudaira Katakuri, wearing sunglasses, immediately launched into a tirade.
That face, which always carried a roguish air, was now filled with gloom.
"That guy Mido actually dared to—"
"Do not."
At that moment, an old but firm voice interrupted him.
Six turns of dance hidden.
The general's attendant, who had lost his left arm and whose hair and beard were all white, slowly shook his head.
Despite the circumstances, his voice remained calm and composed.
“The Mido family has served the Shogun for generations, and I know Hiromasa very well.”
"He may die in battle, but he will never betray us."
"But the fact is that the fleet, under his command, has made way for the enemy!"
Matsudaira growled, "What else could it be but betrayal?"
"Could it be that naval fleet that calls itself the 'World Government'?"
"Can it really control over two hundred spaceships remotely?!"
"Now is not the time to argue."
General Mao took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"Matsudaira-san, immediately mobilize the Shinsengumi to protect the Shogun's castle."
"Maizang, contact the Kyoto authorities as soon as possible!"
"Yes!"
The two responded simultaneously.
however.
Just as Matsudaira Katakuri turned to leave.
A calm voice suddenly rang out.
"No need."
Clo.
This man has gained General Mao Mao's trust with his remarkable abilities over the past few weeks.
The steward, who had been standing silently behind the general, gently pushed up his glasses.
The lens reflected a cold, arcing light under bright light.
"Admiral Kizaru's fleet has no malicious intent."
He walked slowly to the center of Honmaru Palace.
Each step made the atmosphere inside the room even more somber.
"As for Kyoto..."
Crowe's gaze swept over the surprised General Mao Mao, and he pulled out his M1911 pistol, pointing it at Matsudaira Katagiri.
And several ministers and officials, including Liu Zhuan Wuzang, whose expressions changed drastically.
"The central government over there should have been completely wiped out by our people thirty minutes ago."
"So now, General Mao Mao, you are the only legally recognized leader of a regime on this planet."
Dead silence.
Then came Matsudaira Katakuri's furious roar: "Who are you?!"
He's a man known to outsiders as the 'God of Destruction'.
Rumors circulate that it leaves nothing but barren land in its wake, and might even blow up a space terminal.
[Friendly reminder from the Gintama TV anime production team]
(Of course, this is just a rumor, please don't take it seriously~)
(He was simply a violent person who was addicted to pleasure and liked to solve problems with violence.)
(So he's just a smelly old man who frequently causes destruction~)
Almost the instant Kro finished speaking.
From a shadowy spot on the palace ceiling, a glint of cold light, like the flick of a venomous snake, shot down.
A jet-black afterimage tore through the air, aiming straight for Crowe's seemingly relaxed side of the neck.
Kro didn't turn around, nor did he even change his posture.
Just as the kunai was about to touch his skin, he casually raised his right hand behind his shoulder.
The index and middle fingers precisely caught the afterimage, which turned out to be a kunai gleaming with a cold light.
Time seemed to freeze in a single frame.
Krok flicked his wrist slightly.
There was nothing that could make it fly back faster than it had come.
Sarutobi Ayame, the current leader of the Oniwabanshu, struggled to twist her body in the shadows.
With a soft 'plop' sound, blood splattered on her left shoulder.
With a muffled groan, she fell from the beam and knelt on one knee.
He watched in disbelief as his kunai sank deep into his flesh.
"So fast. So strong."
"There's no need to get so worked up."
Kro then slowly turned his head, indifferently scanning the dozen or so figures that quickly appeared from various corners.
These ninjas are dressed in night clothes and carry samurai swords.
At this moment, everyone felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. The blades of kunai and shuriken were all pointed at them, but no one dared to make the first move.
“If I wanted to harm General Mao Mao, I would have had countless opportunities over the past few weeks.”
"Of course, you can't stop me now."
Kro's voice was as calm as if he were discussing the weather.
"In fact, it was during this period that I dealt with three assassination attempts that went unnoticed by you."
General Mao Mao slowly stood up.
His face was still pale, but the general's authority in his eyes was gradually overcoming his panic.
He raised his hand to stop Matsudaira Katakuri, who was about to fire his gun, and the Oniwabanshu who pounced on him.
"Mr. Clooney."
General Mao Mao's expression was unusually serious: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Kroc bowed slightly, performing an impeccable butler's salute.
"We would like you to join the world government on behalf of this planet."
He straightened up and met General Mao Mao's gaze with a calm look.
"General, you once said this to Princess Chengye in private."
"I hope that one day, this country will become a peaceful nation where there is no need to worry about the future or for generals to exist."
"And you yourself can live a carefree life as an ordinary older brother, drinking tea brewed by your younger sister."
“A world government can realize this vision.”
"You will no longer be oppressed and exploited by the celestial beings, and there will be no more emperors, generals, or shogunates."
"All the conflicts arising from 'expelling the barbarians' will disappear, and true order, prosperity, and peace will be achieved."
"rhetoric!"
Grandpa Wu Cang shouted sternly, "You've used your fleet to press on our borders, control our fleet, and block communications!"
"Is this your peace?"
“Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures.”
Kro readily admitted, "But more than that, General, you should be asking what would happen if you refused, and what would happen if you accepted?"
General Mao Mao remained silent for a moment before speaking again.
You seem very confident.
"But what if your World Government is ultimately defeated by the Galactic Empire?"
"What will we, who join you then, face?"
This is a concern that any rational ruler would inevitably have. However—
"There is indeed a risk, but it's not significant."
Kro adjusted his glasses: "Once you understand the World Government, you'll naturally understand what I mean."
"The most crucial point is that, General, you actually had no choice."
"The fate of this planet was sealed the moment Admiral Kizaru arrived with his fleet."
Matsudaira Katakuri's expression changed repeatedly after hearing this.
He stared intently at Kro, finally uttering the question that had been screaming in his mind since the beginning.
"Ahem, don't let my age fool you."
"But I have occasionally bought 'Weekly Shonen Jump' a few times."
