42: Chapter 6 : Joy, Join Joui

Chapter 6 : Joy, Join Joui

In an abandoned village southwest of Kanto, one of the only buildings in good condition was filled with laughter and cries of joy.1

Men dressed in blood-stained Samurai armours and danced while drinking sake and among these men was a young man with red hair next to a man with black hair and another with white hair while the three drank together.

"Hahaha damn Amanto....huk... a great...huk... fight today!"

"All thanks to Haruto! A toast to Lord Haruto!" Shouted one of the drunken samurai.

"To Lord Haruto!!!!" They shouted as they raised their glasses, then swallowed the sake in one sip.

"We slaughtered them!!!! Hahaha...hey don't drink all the sake..."

"Haruto you look more popular than me, how about you join us." Said Tatsugorou as he took a big swallow of sake.

"Let him drink it in peace." Said Jirocho, who emptied a bottle in one sip before taking a new one.

"Shut up and stop drinking like that, you'll finish all our stock!"

Haruto also took a big sip of sake before laughing.

" hahaha I don't want to join you. You don't have pay, you don't have health insurance, and if this war ends I don't want to be an outlaw."

Jirocho and Tatsugorou stopped drinking and looked at each other for a moment before turning their eyes to Haruto.

"You know that the action you committed today will make you a wanted criminal all over the country?"

"There's bound to be a bounty on your head!"

"It is rare that Joui manages to destroy a ship and your strength is really scary, they will surely put a lot of effort to kill you."

Hearing this, a few drops of sweat slipped from Haruto's forehead and he sighed.

"Destiny really wants me in this war, if I knew, I would have let you die."

Drops of sweat also slipped from the foreheads of Tatsugorou and Jirocho who thanked their lucky stars for helping them.

Then the three drank together, Jirocho and Tatsugoro started talking about their lives before they joined the war.

Their full names were Terada Tatsugorou and

Doromizu Jirochou, the two of them and Tatsugorou's wife were childhood friends, Tatsugorou was a policeman, he was 46 years old, he lived in Kabuki District in the city of Edo, he was also married to a woman named Otose, Jirochou was also a resident of the Kabuki district, He was 48 years old and was apparently the Yakuza boss before joining the war, he even had a wife and a daughter who had just been born.

"And you, Haruto, what's your story, you seem pretty young to be in the war, you remind me of the rumor about those three kids giving headaches to the bakufu and Amanto in the south." Says Tatsugorou

"Three teenager, you say?"

"Yes, they have even starting to make a name for himself, there's a silver-haired one who's said to be a real madman on the battlefield, another one extremely good at strategic retreat and evasion and the last one is said to be very strong and gifted in strategy, their little squadrons have been causing a lot of damage lately, do you know them?"

Haruto took a big sip of sake and said.

"They are old comrades who don't want leave a dead man behind."

Jirocho and Tatsugoro, seeing Haruto's expression fell silent and drank as the night passed slowly.

The next day Haruto thoroughly cleaned his katanas with a clean cloth before going to see Tatsugoro who was discussing the next operation with Jirocho.

"What is it, Haruto?" Says Jirocho

"You want to leave already?" Asked Tatsugorou

"No, I came to ask you a question."

Jirocho and Tatsugoro looked at each other and nodded their heads.

"When does the fight start?"Asked Haruto with a smile.

The two looked at each other again and then Tatsugorou said in a loud voice.

"He, you lazy bastards, Haruto agrees to join us!!!!"

"Hahahaha welcome to "joui" Lord Haruto!"

"Let's toast to Lord Haruto!!!!"

"Idiot! We drank all the sake yesterday!"

"So let's drink the blood of the Amantos!"

"Hahahahaha!"

In the next months, the rumors about on a young man did not stop reasoning among the Amantos and the Jouis, it was said that a young man with scarlet hair similar to a demon brutally killing all his enemies with inhuman speed and terrifying bloodlust.

Even more exaggerated, it was even said that he was capable of destroying ships with the power of his Kendo alone.

"Gintoki, Zura, do you think it's him?" Asked Takasugi by a campfire to Gintoki and Katsura next to him.

"It's not Zura, it's Katsura."

Gintoki when he remained silent and closed his eyes ignoring Takasugi.

"whattever, he's no longer a comrade." Said Takasugi, also closing his eyes.

Although none of them seemed happy, but, if you looked closer you would see a slight smile on their lips.
