Volume 1: Re:Zero -Starting Life as a Samurai Chapter 51: The Family Elder - Kuranaga Saemon (Part 1)
After Yuanshan and the other disciples left, Ishikawa headed in the direction they left.
Then he let out a long sigh of exhaustion.
…
…
After the disciples followed Yuanshan out of the dojo, they immediately gathered around him and said to Yuanshan:
"Senior Yuanshan! Are we really going to just let it go like this?!"
"I won't accept this! I won't accept just letting today's events go!"
"Senior Yuanshan! We must find a way to take revenge on Ogata Yisei!"
"If we don't take revenge today, it will be a loss to the dignity of our warriors!"
…
Everyone was arguing at the same time.
Yuanshan seemed to be annoyed by their noise and shouted:
"Stop arguing!"
Although Yuanshan is not the most experienced disciple among all the disciples in Ishikawa Sword Hall.
But he is the most popular one among them.
Even Yuanshan's senior brothers all follow Yuanshan's lead.
As soon as Yuanshan's loud shout fell, everyone immediately shut up.
"We can't just let the shame that Naoko brought upon us today go !"
"I must take revenge!"
"but not now!"
"It doesn't matter even if Master doesn't allow me to seek revenge on Ogata in private!"
"Anyway, the God Sacrifice Competition will begin soon!"
"Ogata is the first in the Sakakibara Sword Gym's internal competition."
"And I will once again represent Ishikawa Sword Hall in the festival competition this year!"
After hearing Yuanshan's words, everyone came to their senses.
Then all of them looked excited.
Competition in worshiping gods - this is a perfect stage for Yuanshan.
A perfect stage for revenge.
A hideous shadow appeared on Yuanshan's face at this moment.
Not only did Ogata commit adultery with his wife, but he also injured so many of his fellow apprentices today - with all the new and old grudges added together, Toyama only had one feeling left towards Ogata: the intention to kill.
"Don't worry, just let Ogata be proud for a while."
"In the festival competition one month from now, I will personally cut off Ogata's head!"
…
…
After walking out of Ishikawa Sword Hall, fatigue immediately came over me like a tide.
Fatigue wrapped around Ogata like a wet rag.
When Ogata was challenging the disciples of Ishikawa Sword Hall just now, his nerves were in a highly tense state, and his perception of negative emotions such as fatigue and pain became dull.
It was not until now, after walking out of Ishikawa Sword Hall and relaxing his nerves, that Ogata realized how tired he was.
Although he was extremely tired, Ogata still forced himself to keep going and try to walk... no, he should have tried to drag himself back to Sakakibara Sword Hall.
He also had to go back to Sakakibara Sword Hall to report his safety to his master and others.
Ogata was in a trance, feeling as if he was not walking but floating.
Before he knew it, when he came to his senses, he found himself floating back to Sakakibara Sword Hall.
After entering the dojo, Oba saw Sakakibara Hanbei and his fellow disciples who were waiting for him to come back.
After Hanbei returned to the sword hall alone, he did not hide anything and told all the disciples what Ogata had done .
When they learned that Ogata had gone to Ishikawa Sword Hall alone, many people were outraged and expressed their desire to go to Ishikawa Sword Hall together to lend Ogata a hand.
But they were all stopped by Hanbei.
If they were allowed to go to Ishikawa Sword Hall to help Ogata, it would only turn into a big fight, making today's riots worse.
In order to prevent the riot from getting worse, Hanbei used his authority as a master to order everyone to stay in the sword hall and wait for Ogata to come back.
Due to Hanbei's authority, the disciples had to give up the idea of "assisting Ogata in the battle".
During the time of waiting for Ogata's return, Hanbei also felt that "every second seemed like an eternity".
My emotions kept swinging back and forth between anxiety and annoyance.
He was also anxious about Ogata's delay in returning.
At that time, when Hanbei met Ogata who was on his way to Ishikawa Sword Hall, he saw Ogata's determination and resolve in his eyes.
Ogata's eyes clearly told Hanbei: He was determined to go to Ishikawa Sword Hall. Unless Hanbei drew his sword and killed Ogata, no matter how Hanbei tried to stop him, he would not be able to stop him.
Frightened by Ogata's look, Hanbei had no choice but to let Ogata go to Ishikawa Sword Hall alone.
Ever since watching Ogata leave his sight, Hanbei has never let go of his worry about Ogata.
After Ogata came back, Hanbei immediately rolled his eyes to check if there were any wounds on Ogata's body.
Fortunately, apart from some dust on Ogata's body, there were no other stains similar to blood.
Apart from the fatigue on his face, Ogata's body was intact. He was not missing a hand or a foot, or any other part of his body.
Hanbei finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ogata returned safe and sound.
After Ogata came back, the disciples who were waiting for him in the dojo immediately surrounded him and asked him all kinds of questions.
"Ogata-senpai! Are you hurt?"
"Ogata-kun! Are you really going to break into the Ishikawa Sword Hall alone?"
"Ogata, have you defeated all the people from Ishikawa Sword Hall?"
…
The noise from his fellow disciples made Ogata's eardrums hurt a little.
Ogata, who was already feeling a little dazed, felt even more dazed.
But Ogata didn't hate the noise.
After a slight smile, Ogata told everyone exactly what had happened to him when he entered the Ishikawa Sword Hall alone.
Including the two disciples guarding the gate that he defeated when he entered Ishikawa Sword Hall, Ogata, who broke into Ishikawa Sword Hall alone today, defeated a total of 12 disciples of Ishikawa Sword Hall.
After learning from Ogata that he had successfully broken into Ishikawa Sword Hall on his own, defeated 12 disciples of Ishikawa Sword Hall, and escaped unscathed, there were immediate sounds of people gasping in shock in the dojo.
After the gasps, cheers and exclamations followed.
It's a pity that in the Edo period, there was no such way of celebrating by throwing people up, catching them, throwing them up again, and catching them again.
Otherwise, Ogata would have .
Ogata's feat of breaking into Ishikawa Sword Hall alone today was truly a relief.
A large group of people from Ishikawa Sword Gym broke into their Sakakibara Sword Gym today and injured many people in their sword gym.
This made everyone in Sakakibara Sword Hall feel as if something was blocking their chest, making them feel uncomfortable and stuffy.
And now, after learning that Ogata had repaid Ishikawa Kengakuen in such a powerful way, they all felt that the evil energy in their chests instantly dissipated, and they all became refreshed.
