"250)}This feeling will tear me up if I stay quiet." "250)}Even though the world is only 3 meters across I want to be pressed against you." "and pass by the drooping sunflowers." "250)}We'll keep breathing in the wind." "we can almost fly." "and I want to be stronger than anyone else." "and two hearts fuse together."

"473)\cH3541B8}D-YFI 320)\cH3541B8}Legend of Kyoto" "161)}Rurouni Kenshin" "Found it!" "The medicine Master concocted for me when I was on the brink of death..." "I probably won't make it in time if I go search for a doctor now... 124)}A Decisive Battle Like Violent Waters" "Juppongatana!" "I have to take the chance." "and Master's own strength..." "Master!" "Just as I thought." "I can't find Kenshin by just randomly looking for him." "I could get a hold of you." "I'm sure to run into Kenshin." "Can't you give me a nicer look?" "I've trained all the way down the Nakasendo path!" "You know this guy?" "not at all." "I see." "He's mistaking me for someone else." "so let's keep him locked up." "Yeah." "hey!" "Open up!" "I'll open it myself!" "Did that surprise you?" "and underestimate me..." "You'll end up like this too!" "Damn you!" "Chief!" "I will settle the score with him." "Please wait upstairs." "There are plenty of things I want to ask you." "I need to settle the score with regards to that fight in Tokyo..." "H-Hey!" "I see." "The basic idea for the attack is the same as Sukashi." "the power is nothing in comparison... what did you do about the basics of defense I told you about?" "Who the hell is gonna do exactly as you say?" "It's not my style to be defensive!" "I'll fight the way I want to fight!" "You really are useless!" "are you going to run away?" "I don't have time to play with you." "then this will be my victory by forfeit?" "whatever you want." "I'm still not satisfied!" "a match!" "Fight me in a match!" "What's that room?" "It looks more secure than the others..." "Of course." "The person in here is important in this particular case..." "He's one of the Juppongatana the Battousai apprehended..." "Chou the Sword Hunter." "Why y'all being so rowdy out there?" "I've been catching a few good Z's so why don't you keep it down?" "You look relaxed." "I have a few questions to ask you." "A certain incident occurred in Kobe the other day." "A fifty man force was specially selected from the military and police... they were all killed overnight." "It was done by one man." "can anyone working for Shishio do such a thing?" "There are." "could do it no problem." "You obviously have no desire to give a real answer." "That's absurd!" "I'm really answering' truthfully here!" "I can see to it that you are released." "I don't have any regrets with regards to life outside." "you're afraid of Shishio." "If you were released for some reason there's no way Shishio would let you live after you screwed up and got caught by the enemy." "you're actually safer in here." "This rooster-head is really pissin' me off." "I'm just saying I won't sit and listen to everything you boring' folks spit out!" "Boring folks?" "I've been in my worst mood since I got to Kyoto... broom-head?" "rooster-head!" "Rooster!" "Broom!" "Rooster!" "Broom!" "Rooster!" "Broom!" "Rooster!" "Broom!" "Cock-a-doodle-doo!" "sweep!" "I'll answer any question ya got!" "Interesting!" "willow-head over there!" "give us a signal!" "Don't overdo it..." "I crushed your skull!" "What?" "is it?" "You..." "Do you want me to free your legs as well?" "eh?" "Boring!" "What?" "I hate people like you the most!" "and then get lost!" "then I'll take over." "The same question as before." "he's the one who really is getting the victory!" "Answer me." "in a night... say in one or two hours." "There is." "The Juppongatana has two." "Two?" "Less than I figured... right?" "I would be able to do it myself." "any of the Juppongatana could do it?" "How do you figure?" "right?" "rooster-head!" "broom-head!" "just go on with your story." "One of them is Sojiro the Tenken." "He's the one who is always smiling." "So it is him after all..." "But Sojiro isn't the assassin." "During that time he should have been in eastern Japan collecting the Juppongatana." "That means... it's probably the other guy." "It's finally time..." "The Juppongatana will all gather today." "The ten strongest people ever under the guidance of Lord Shishio will be beneath one roof." "have already arrived." "The remaining four should..." "Lord Houji!" "There's a problem!" "An intruder!" "He was nearby a moment ago!" "We've lost sight of him!" "He's not over here either!" "He disappeared!" "who could sneak in here?" "I'm terribly sorry." "I'll send Anji and the others to fight the intruder immediately... wait here." "There's no need for that." "I wouldn't want to see the Juppongatana fight each other." "Fight each other?" "he's already right next to us." "He..." "Can it be?" "Lord Shishio!" "You've improved again." "Usui?" "Usui the Blind Sword..." "Usui the Blind Sword." "he was an incredible swordsman hired by the shogunate to fight manslayers." "he fought Lord Shishio and was instantaneously sliced across the eyes and lost all sight." "in hopes of revenge on Lord Shishio... the Eye of the Heart." "4233)}Eye of the Heart" "And now he's..." "What are you angry about?" "I can attack him under any circumstance." "That was the condition under which I joined forces with Shishio..." "Right?" "Yeah..." "I know all about that!" "What I don't like is you pretending to be an intruder and killing off our men!" "It just means that I need to work as hard as a thousand soldiers." "right?" "What?" "that's right." "too." "About fifty policemen." "don't do such things unless you're ordered!" "Usui there wasn't a man with a cross-shaped scar on his left cheek... was there?" "Who knows?" "Those two are the biggest enemies of the Juppongatana." "I see... and you!" "I'll get rid of all three together!" "I'm sure that those two are the strongest of the Juppongatana." "I can see that you're pretty good..." "Usui is better." "That will be fun..." "I have one more question." "I just got a hold of this information." "It's about Shishio's plan to destroy Kyoto." "What?" "Plan to destroy Kyoto?" "Tell me..." "How exactly is Shishio going to destroy Kyoto?" "it was a promise." "I'll tell you." "Do you know about the incident at the lkedaya?" "as much as anyone would." "It was an incident at an inn called the lkedaya." "The more radical imperialists gathered there to plan the assassination of key men... but the plan was never executed because they were assaulted by the Shinsengumi." "The plan was this..." "Five hundred soldiers would set fires at the same time turning Kyoto into a burning field and killing off all the targeted key men during the chaos of the fire." "Lord Shishio focused his gaze on this incident." "Taking a plan right from the imperialists who burned him and rubbing their faces in it." "That's the kinda thing that agrees with Lord Shishio a bold deceleration of war with lots of sarcasm." "I heard we were going to start when all the Juppongatana arrived in Kyoto so it's right around the corner." "I see." "Kyoto the city... it's called the Millennium Imperial Castle." "the people's trust in the government would crumble." "the government wouldn't be doing most of the suffering." "The people in Kyoto would." "Ten years after the chaos of the revolution..." "Just after finally being able to live in peace... and the imperialist government..." "Both need to be whipped into shape!" "By the brand of "Wicked" I wear on my back..." "I'll never let them burn Kyoto!" "It is true to calm the spirits of the Wolves of the Shinsengumi I must prevent Kyoto from burning down." "What is it?" "I never thought I'd be agreeing with you on something..." "I'll be settling the score with you later." "I need to find Kenshin first." "I don't care about settling the score with a moron but you're right about our priorities." "quit joking around." "you moron." "I'm not one of your men!" "do you want to stay here?" "I can't stay here with this broom-head!" "moron." "Who's the moron?" "moron." "Don't say that!" "I'm back!" "Boy!" "What's wrong?" "You look worried." "where have you been?" "Where?" "I thought everyone might get depressed staying in a dark place like this." "I thought about getting some sweets in Kyoto to hand out..." "And you spent three days doing so?" "I got lost here and there... and it was a mess!" "Sheesh!" "What's this about that guy Usui?" "long time no see." "How about one?" "Yatsuhashi cookies?" "When you leave Shishio's side it means that you have some special mission to accomplish." "My Eye of the Heart sees emotions the human eye cannot." "a person without normally functioning emotions is no exception." "Oh?" "it means nothing to me..." "I almost forgot." "The Juppongatana are to gather immediately in the main hall." "the last three just arrived." "Kamatari." "long time no see!" "Miss Yumi!" "N-Nice to see you... we'll really see who will win Lord Shishio's heart!" "I don't want to lose against a man like you!" "Stick swinging queer!" "Young ones have so much energy!" "good to see that you're well." "You're the only one who is so polite." "Those guys won't even say a word to me." "young ones these days..." "Each and every one of them is jealous of my true powers." "your partner... he's outside." "You know that he can't fit inside this hideout... right?" "I took three days' leave without permission." "Yeah..." "This is a souvenir." "leave that for later." "It's delicious." "66)\frz354.578\}Preparations are complete" "I'll have some later." "Thanks for coming." "Sorry to keep you waiting." "Due to unexpected circumstances..." "Chou but the Juppongatana that I am so proud of have finally gathered here." "Those who look up to me..." "Those who wish to kill me..." "Those disillusioned by the Meiji government..." "Those with absolute confidence in their abilities..." "You have your own wishes but the time has come to act as one." "Sojiro." "Anji." "lwanbo." "Houji." "Kamatari." "And Usui..." "It's time to begin our conquest of the country." "At eleven fifty-nine PM tomorrow begins the Kyoto Grand Inferno project!" "Burn down Kyoto with scarlet flames!" "Why are you leisurely sleeping in?" "right?" "hurry up and go down the mountain!" "Mas ter..." "Master!" "I'm not someone who enjoys being hugged by other guys!" "Don't jump at me like that!" "I'm glad..." "That medicine really worked!" "Did you really think this would work?" "This is a placebo I slapped together for you at random." "how... it would be this sword..." "The reverse-blade sword principal forge?" "Look closely." "The hilt pin is so loose that it's about to fall out." "That's why the sword absorbed some of your swing's power and weakened it just a bit." "It's a great sword that understands the feelings of its owner..." "Sir Shakku... it's really due to my genius and my exhaustive training which is why you used the sword so much that the pin loosened." "It was a close one but the final training is now complete." "Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki is now yours." "From now on you should concentrate on the fact that everything about this attack can only be used by you as a wanderer." "Yes!" "Master..." "Thank you for taking the trouble." "Wait." "This white cape has been passed down for generations... it is the proof of the successor to the Hiten Mitsurugi Style." "Take it." "You have the right to wear it." "I will decline..." "I'm sure it won't look good on me anyway." "You're right..." "Master..." "Even if I mastered the final attack I have no wish whatsoever to claim the title of Seijuro Hiko the 14th." "The only thing I will take are the ideals of the Hiten Mitsurugi Style." "That's a rather selfish thought..." "Well..." "It's not like your selfishness is anything new." "Speaking of selfish thoughts..." "One more thing..." "While I'm fighting Shishio's group..." "Could you protect everyone at the Aoiya?" "Stop relying on me like that!" "When you said you wouldn't be my successor you stopped being my apprentice!" "Hurry up and forget that I was ever your master!" "Master!" "But..." "I didn't teach you the Hiten Mitsurugi Style just so you could use it to become even more miserable." "Don't worry about little things." "Just hurry up and go defeat Shishio." "I wonder what's wrong?" "There sure are a lot of officers running around..." "F-Fujita!" "Fujita!" "Heaven has sided with us!" "Battousai... he appeared at the Yamashina station!" "We had him hurry over by carriage." "He should be here right about now... is that him?" "He's different..." "He's not the Battousai from before... what did he gain?" "250)}The season calmly declare its end." "250)}Gathered by the decorated memories... 250)}Farewell." "250)}That person who gave me love... 250)}...was swaying inside these eyes." "250)}Stared down by an empty seat... 250)}...on bringing holidays... 250)}..." "You keep flowing through me with no end in sight." "but I pretend not to understand it." "250)}I was always drowning." "250)}Even thinking about someone else... 250)}Your profile was just too wonderful." "250)}The season calmly declared its end." "250)}Gathered by the decorated memories... 250)}Farewell That person gave me love... 250)}Loved and longed for the faraway skies... 250)}...and she was swaying inside these eyes" "250)}In the changing townscape... 250)}...a sigh escaped..."
