"This isn't it" "Kenshin doesn't move like this." "Yeah." "Like this?" "Ow!" "U-Um..." "My..." "It's broken." "The strap it's broken." "Done." "I'm sorry..." "It's not done too well." "That's not true!" "Good luck with your swordsmanship training." "Oh no!" "I forgot to thank her!" "You haven't eaten anything for the past few minutes." "what happened here?" "was that tied together by your girlfriend or something?" "G-G-G-Girlfriend?" "I-It's nothing like that!" "I brought some tea." "Tsubame!" "Tsubame." "you've never met her before." "This is Tsubame." "Uh..." "Um..." "She's been working for us since last week." "I love Tsubame." "Can you juggle with us again?" "All right." "can you fetch me some water?" "Yes." "everyone at the Akabeko is happy." "There is something I forgot to say." "That brat..." "Give it to me." "Earlier... um..." "Yes?" "Thanks." "I see..." "So that's it... thank you..." "Um..." "It's Yahiko Myojin." "Myojin..." "Little Yahiko." "Little Yahiko?" "Do I look that childish?" "Tsubame." "You've done pretty well..." "Looks like you have all the guys in this place trusting you." "come along." "And how did it go?" "how did it go?" "T-There isn't much money at the Akabeko." "The daily earnings are taken back to the owner's house..." "Just as I thought." "right?" "The key to the owner's house..." "I told you to make an imprint of it in clay!" "Y-You shouldn't be doing this." "you used to be a vassal for the shogun." "you'll sling mud on your family name..." "And since when are you important enough to tell me what to do?" "My house ruled over yours for all 300 years of the Edo era!" "too." "stealing..." "You have a duty to do everything for me." "all I have to do is kill that Akabeko family off..." "Stop it!" "Who is it?" "Where is..." "Who is it?" "What is this?" "It's been 10 years since the Meiji era began!" "Why are you still trapped in a master-slave relationship from the Edo era?" "And you guys..." "I don't know if you used to be vassals or something..." "I can't forgive you!" "Who the hell are you?" "L-Little Yahiko..." "C-Could you not say "little"?" "What a shock..." "Little Yahiko!" "don't call me "little" !" "I-I'm sorry." "Forget this stupid idea of stealing!" "the descendant of Tokyo samurai... will fight you!" "Shut up!" "beat 'em up!" "You brat!" "I can do it!" "My swordsmanship is good enough." "All that training everyday is really helping me." "but I have to thank Kaoru for this..." "Shit!" "Now!" "Get him!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "You little brat..." "Come on..." "Stand up if you can!" "Yahiko..." "Hold it!" "W-What are you doing?" "He's my valuable first apprentice!" "Are you going to just sit here and watch?" "he will never become strong... that he is." "Stop... stop..." "S-Stop." "Lord Mikio." "He has nothing to do with this." "please... that should be about enough." "Right!" "You will continue doing everything for me." "Little Yahiko." "Later." "A-Are you all right?" "Dammit..." "I wouldn't lose one-on-one..." "I'm sorry to get you involved in this..." "I'm sorry." "When will they... tomorrow evening..." "I'll stop them." "Litt" "It's all right." "I'm still "little." "you didn't get me involved in this..." "I chose to stick my head into it." "So don't worry about it..." "I can't tell the cops." "she would become an accomplice." "I can't rely on Kenshin and the others for something like this." "This is my fight." "How can I win against so many?" "Kenshin..." "May I?" "go ahead..." "I was thinking about new types of training... can you tell me..." "How can I fight multiple enemies by myself?" "that is?" "It's not that." "I'm just kinda curious." "I see..." "There is one way..." "There is?" "It's a method that Imperialists often used during the revolution... that is." "run away." "Run?" "of course... so naturally the one who can run the fastest will catch up with you first." "turn and attack... run again." "You only have to repeat this." "I get it!" "excellent running ability is absolutely necessary..." "Running ability?" "no matter how many there are it all depends on whether or not you can get them into one-on-one." "One-on-one..." "Yahiko..." "Kamiya Kasshin is a sword style for protecting others." "Because it is a style for protecting others not only will a loss seal your fate but the fate of the one you are protecting as well." "Swords that protect do not allow for a defeat of any kind." "that you should." "didn't you come this way to buy tofu?" "that?" "that it does not." "The fate of those I protect are riding on my sword." "Defeat cannot be accepted." "Yahiko Myojin of the Kamiya Kasshin Style... fair and square." "Let's go." "Y-You're the brat from yesterday!" "come wrestle it from me." "aren't you?" "You brat!" "Follow him!" "Tsubame..." "Miss Kaoru." "So you came here to try and stop that guy one last time..." "We've got you cornered now." "Prepare to be beaten up!" "All right!" "Come on!" "I'm sure I won't lose this time!" "You're trapped like a rat in a sack!" "This one's mine!" "W-Why are you idiots getting stuck here?" "Go one at a time!" "I see..." "You pretended to be cornered but it was your plan to lead us where you can fight one-on-one... but you're just a kid." "Kill him!" "Kill him!" "T-That cross-shaped scar..." "He's that guy that's rumored to be hugely strong... too... you can count me out of this." "Me too!" "I don't wanna risk my life for this!" "Come on!" "What the hell are you afraid of?" "I knew you would come after all." "You too." "I can't believe this." "To think that I'll have to show this brat my skill in the Kougen Ittou Style." "Isn't this his first time against a guy with a real sword?" "this is a true one-on-one battle." "Here I come!" "Yeah!" "no!" "You have no way to escape now." "what kind of end do you want?" "He's gonna kill me..." "Is this the end?" "Win..." "Win..." "Yahiko!" "Not only will a loss seal your fate but the fate of the one you are protecting as well." "That's right!" "I can't lose!" "The fate of those I am protecting are depending on me!" "Come on!" "I will win!" "You did it!" "You did it!" "You did it!" "You did it!" "You did it!" "You did it!" "Nothing less from my first apprentice!" "Kaoru?" "And..." "There are no cicadas in spring!" "K-Kenshin..." "You..." "L-Let go of me..." "I..." "I don't need any thanks..." "I feel a lot more courageous now." "...after watching you." "I won't be scared of petty things again..." "I will keep my heart strong." "I wish you the best." "aren't you acting a little too cool there?" "S-Shut up!" "He's blushing!" "And please do your best in your swordsmanship training." "I'll become stronger." "just like Kenshin." "Little Yahiko." "stop with the "little" thing!" "Little Yahiko is it?" "Don't say "little" !" "Little Yahiko!" "It's not cute!" "Stop calling me "little" !" "Stop with the "little" thing!"
