Chapter 166

This Red Oni, Uesugi Toru observed its aura, was almost on par with that Nue from the Onmyo Guild in the Genjitsu before.

Even, the Red Oni's aura might be a thread stronger.

Only, it didn't look adept at speed, its brain not too sharp, so it ended up caught and put in a cage.

But even a Two-Star Half Red Oni like this was caught and placed before him...

Looks like, those old things sitting in the inner room seats really want to kill him.

Uesugi Toru gazed at the thing like a small red meat mountain, baring snow-white fangs, exhaling scorching breath like a motor, and couldn't help a cold smile in his heart.

You have to know, the Sengoku Period is only a Three-Star map!

So aside from the boss and possible hidden maps, Two-Star Half counts as the strongest conventional combat power in the Sengoku Period.

Uesugi Toru scanned a week, then silently withdrew his gaze.

—For instance right now, in the Imagawa Residence, there are that many people surrounding to watch the excitement, among them no lack of samurai with not-low status, and Hatamoto serving as guards.

But this one sweep of his, he hardly felt a few people able to touch the Two-Star Half line.

Those Hatamoto clad in imposing black armor have strength just between One-Star Half and Two-Star.

The samurai are even more out of the question, average strength still a head lower than the Hatamoto who can be called "elite".

The only two in the venue reaching Two-Star Half are the fierce warrior father-son Asahina Yasunaga and Asahina Yasutomo.

And, because Asahina Yasunaga is advanced in years, true strength probably just Two-Star or not even.

Oh... also that previous Hanzō definitely has Two-Star Half, even reaching Three-Star isn't impossible.

Because as the "ancestor", "source" of all later-generation ninja, Hattori Hanzō being a bit stronger is also perfectly normal.

But Hanzō hides his own aura very well, if not actively revealing himself even Uesugi Toru completely can't detect him.

Therefore Uesugi Toru also can't confirm what level Hanzō's strength has reached.

—But since this group of so-called Elders sent such a "big gift" at their first meeting, he won't hold back from returning the favor with a hundredfold intensity afterward.

Uesugi Toru, always respects the old and cherishes the young.

But before that, still need to squeeze dry these Elders' utility value first.

Thinking that the Corona Breathing Technique actually in less than a day in the Sengoku Period could complete a part, making the Flesh Palace cultivation more complete and detailed, Uesugi Toru's heart couldn't help giving rise to full harvest joy.

He lightly snapped fingers.

"Two Shaku."

—Facing a mere Two-Star Half, brain still not too sharp to the point of being locked in an iron cage, Red Oni, Uesugi Toru considered still far from needing to act himself.

These Elders aren't wanting to use this "accident" to kill him, at worst also wanting to probe what level his strength is at right?

Since so, let Adult Two Shaku act.

Under the silent spectating of dense gazes, the girl wearing a white hat, wearing a small white dress soundlessly landed beside Uesugi Toru.

Adult Two Shaku according to the Heartstring's info slightly lowered head to Uesugi Toru, clearly enunciated loudly: "Shikigami Two Shaku, pays respects to Owner."

These words out, immediately many gazes dramatically changed, bringing along the Elders' expressions also starting to become gloomy complex.

Shikigami?

Humanoid Shikigami?

Still possessing self wisdom, able to fluently converse that kind?!

Onmyoji Toru now summons out this not-even-as-long-as-their-legs small Shikigami, what does he want to do?

In an instant, various different questions appeared in everyone's hearts, pulling their curiosity to the peak.

Even Imagawa Yoshimoto who was almost becoming a powder keg exploding at a touch froze for a moment, silently casting a gaze.

Uesugi Toru stared at the feigning calm, actually from so many people as focus surrounded shy-to-death girl: "Two Shaku, you go exorcise this Red Oni."

Adult Two Shaku hearing this slightly trembled, expressionlessly raised small face, faced Uesugi Toru eye to eye.

This helpless bewildered gaze clearly said: "Huh? No? I go fight this Red Oni?"

Uesugi Toru blinked an eye, plucked Heartstring: "Of course not just you."

—He hasn't to the point of giving own Shikigami this much pressure, letting Adult Two Shaku who's been support a lifetime blank-slate solo over-level exorcise Red Oni.

Here although not too convenient to let Adult Two Shaku wear Muku Mihina, but giving Xiao Jia to her still no problem.

Uesugi Toru reached out, under everyone's watching eyes from "void" took out dazzling Kaga Kiyomitsu.

Then threw the longer-than-Two-Shaku Kaga Kiyomitsu to the girl.

"Xiao Jia, you and Two Shaku go finish off this Red Oni."

Hum!

Kaga Kiyomitsu instantly excitedly sprang out a section, let out clear blade cry, startled the girl holding it a jump, barely managed to press it back down.

—Uesugi Toru felt Kaga Kiyomitsu definitely when being forged, was secretly instilled with some extraordinary thinking by Aoyama Gi.

Otherwise how suddenly become this cheerful, definitely something fishy...

Kaga Kiyomitsu didn't know its owner thought this much.

It just felt its state unprecedentedly good, both fast and sharp, in Aoyama-sensei's words "sharp sword", already couldn't wait to painfully drink Yokai fresh blood!

This little Red Oni before it, barely barely qualifies!

As an appetizer about right!

Adult Two Shaku holding Kaga Kiyomitsu bowed to Uesugi Toru, then turned, coldly looked at the Red Oni that completely didn't put her in its eyes.

Uesugi Toru meanwhile stepped back ten-odd meters, leaving the stage to Adult Two Shaku.

Seeing this scene, those originally scared back collapsed by Red Oni, but already recovered samurai and Retainers among instantly erupted pressed-very-low complex discussion voices.

"This Onmyoji lets little girl go alone deal with that Evil Ghost? Scared to this extent, this is too lacking samurai spirit!"

"Hey hey, what are you saying, she's not even a samurai."

"But not a samurai, at least a man...!"

"Too cruel, I don't want to keep watching."

"So this is what a so-called Onmyoji amounts to..."

Among the spectating melon-eating crowd, aside from Shiraishi, almost no one believed Toru-sama could exorcise the Red Oni.

Or rather, no one believed Toru-sama could survive even a few moves under the Red Oni's hands.

After all, the difference in body size between the two was simply too enormous.

The white-clad girl was barely three shaku, but even curled up in the iron cage, the Red Oni's height exceeded seven shaku!

A single Red Oni probably weighed as much as several dozen girls!

—The "shaku" here refers to the "Goguryeo shaku" commonly used in Japan's Sengoku Period, different from the modern 0.33 meters, roughly only about 0.27 meters.

"That uchigatana has a problem."

Among the Elders, someone keenly noticed Kaga Kiyomitsu's difference.

After a moment of silence, that hoarse voice slowly said: "That is a spiritual weapon, more powerful than ordinary weapons by nature."

"When I went to the Takeda Clan, I once saw one in the Tiger of Kai's hands, but only that one time.

Presumably, this is the reason Toru-kakka dares to let his little shikigami face a youkai alone."

Thus the Elders, with more or less greedy gazes, all turned once more onto Kaga Kiyomitsu.

Kaga Kiyomitsu, however, did not humor them.

It rang *clang* as it sprang out, instantly stinging those gazes that felt like oily formless big hands groping all over it.

The Elders narrowed their eyes in pain, but in their hearts grew even greater interest in this vermilion spiritual uchigatana.

Such a weapon... placed in the hands of a mere Onmyoji with a frail body who hasn't even cultivated a Breathing Technique, isn't it a bit of a waste?

"Kaga-sama, please stop fooling around."

Toru-sama muttered a bit nervously, pressing Kaga Kiyomitsu back down.

She said softly: "Later against this Red Oni, I'll be counting on you a lot."

*Hum—*

Kaga Kiyomitsu vibrated slightly, then returned to tranquility.

Just like a big brother patting his chest, saying "leave it all to me," that reliable.

*Clatter-clatter... *

Numerous vines and branches began to spread over bit by bit from the surroundings.

Then, they encircled Toru-sama and the Red Oni in the iron cage, forcibly raising them up, forming a temporarily constructed small arena.

This was both to prevent the Red Oni from running wild, and to avoid damaging the Imagawa Residence's ground and buildings during their upcoming battle, taking Imagawa Yoshimoto's feelings into account.

—After showing his hand slightly, Uesugi Toru lowered his palm flashing with Basic Onmyo Technique, nodding at Toru-sama whose gaze was somewhat apprehensive.

"Hah..."

Toru-sama lightly exhaled, then tightened her hold on Kaga Kiyomitsu in her arms.

Although she had experience stepping onto the arena together with Uesugi Toru before, this was Toru-sama's first time going up as the "protagonist."

So, some nervousness was unavoidable.

Toru-sama silently chanted the precautions Uesugi Toru had told her several times in her heart, using the "Illusory Weapon" talent to generate a device under her feet that could increase movement speed.

—Toru-sama said no armor needed, just make this clumsy Red Oni unable to hit her.

Then no matter what method, just win; even if it takes a long time it's fine, the first priority is guaranteeing her own safety.

But Toru-sama also had a bit of her own small selfish desire.

—Because, in front of so many people, she didn't want to lose Toru-sama face.

"Kaga-sama."

The girl spoke softly to Kaga Kiyomitsu in her arms, and Kaga Kiyomitsu likewise sensed her thoughts and emotions, so it responded happily with a tremor.

Toru-sama silently raised her gaze, looking up at the Red Oni that fundamentally hadn't put her in its line of sight at all.

She gripped Kaga Kiyomitsu's sword hilt tight.

—Then, let's finish this Red Oni with one sword strike!

"Hatamoto-sama."

The girl bowed slightly to the black-armored Hatamoto nearest her, tone gentle and polite: "Could I trouble you to open this cage?"

"Open it for her."

Before the Hatamoto on both sides could agonizingly make the decision in their hearts, Imagawa Yoshimoto's voice came over.

The black-armored Hatamoto immediately stepped forward, took out a key, and swiftly unlocked the iron lock on the huge iron cage, fully the size of an adult's fist.

*Clack. *

The iron lock fell, making the spectating samurai subconsciously retreat half a step, arms and calves going a bit soft.

The heavy iron door slowly swung outward under extremely weak inertia, emitting a teeth-aching creak.

But even with the door opened, the Red Oni in the iron cage didn't move a fraction.

Instead, it still silently hunched its body, staring dead at the Onmyoji Toru who had retreated dozens of meters away!

As if facing a formidable enemy!

This action was quickly discovered by the crowd and Elders.

In the inner room, an Elder exclaimed in admiration,

"Looks like Toru-kakka truly has astonishing cultivation; that youkai hasn't moved its gaze from him for a single moment since opening its eyes."

In a certain sense, the Elders' probing succeeded, but only halfway.

Because this Onmyoji Toru who seemed to have sprouted from the ground — his strength seems to far exceed their imagination.

However, this point cannot be confirmed yet.

Some of the elders shifted their gazes to the slight figure standing before the Red Oni.

What attitude they should adopt toward this "Toru" still depended on what this little white-clad shikigami could achieve.

Amidst the Red Oni's incomparably heavy breathing, the Eight Shaku Figure drew out the Kaga Kiyomitsu in her hand inch by inch.

Threads of pale color dripped from the blade tip, and the Domain of Separation Sorrow spread across the entire vine arena in an instant.

In a flash, the Red Oni sensed a threat even greater than the man standing far away in the tree shade!

It subconsciously let out a low growl, its muscles engorging and swelling with blood, swiftly looking down at the figure before it.

Meeting the Eight Shaku Figure's emotionless gaze.

"Roar—!"

In this instant, the Red Oni's fur stood on end, its pupils contracting sharply.

It immediately wanted to burst out of the iron cage that could still defend against external attacks, then swing its fist and smash this little brat into meat paste!

But it was already too late.

The Eight Shaku Figure had long since made thorough preparations; the Kaga Kiyomitsu capable of a one-strike kill was already aimed at the Red Oni's vital point, fully coiled and ready to release.

The Red Oni, however, had only begun to pay attention to this little brat from the previous moment.

Whoosh!

A sharp, explosive sound as if tearing the air suddenly rang out.

In the Eight Shaku Figure's hand, the Kaga Kiyomitsu's blade turned into a strand of pure white thread flashing past, intertwining with the clear sunlight.

The Red Oni's hoarse roar seemed to have been forcibly severed.

It stopped abruptly.

Thud.

A torrent of red and white blood poured out slantwise, and the girl's footsteps landed lightly.

Behind the girl, who stood only eight shaku tall, the Red Oni, massive as a small mountain, stood frozen, then crashed to the ground with a boom.

Bisected.

"If you want to blame someone, blame your own stupidity."

The Eight Shaku Figure murmured, using greater force to cover her trembling right hand back, taking several deep breaths before steadying her soaring heart rate.

—If this Red Oni had valued her even a little before, had diverted even a shred of the attention it placed on Toru-sama to her, she would never have been able to kill it so simply and easily.

If the Red Oni had regarded her as a great enemy, the Eight Shaku Figure hardly believed she could win, even wielding the Kaga Kiyomitsu that could finish it in one strike.

The Red Oni paid the price for its arrogance.

【Your shikigami "Eight Shaku Figure" killed the Two-Star Half Demon Red Oni, gaining 307 Soul Ash!】

【Your shikigami "Eight Shaku Figure" used Kaga Kiyomitsu: Blade of Parting to slay the Red Oni, Kaga Kiyomitsu's quality slightly improved.】

【You obtained Red Oni Demon Horns!】

The Eight Shaku Figure sheathed the Kaga Kiyomitsu, which was greedily drinking the Red Oni's blood, and saw Uesugi Toru not far away raise a thumb at her with a slightly surprised expression.

The girl blinked, and while breathing a sigh of relief, she raised her hand in her heart and cheered wildly.

The surroundings were deathly silent, whether the spectating crowd or those in the inner room.

A pin drop could be heard.

The samurai gaped one after another, wishing they could unhinge their jaws and drop them on the ground to show their shock; the black-armored hatamoto who had personally captured this Red Oni also subconsciously rubbed their eyes, thinking they were seeing things.

The elders fell silent.

—This Red Oni was something they had lost quite a few men to lure into the iron cage with great difficulty.

But now, it was actually killed in one slash by this Onmyoji Toru's little shikigami?

Combined with the fact that the Red Oni had just stared fixedly at him, didn't that mean Onmyoji Toru was even far stronger than his shikigami?

No, something was off.

They had severely misjudged "Toru's" strength!

This Onmyoji Toru's strength might surpass anyone in the Imagawa Clan!

So from this moment on, the nature of things had already begun to change.

Regret and heartache flashed in the eyes of the many elders; they had already begun calculating how much blood to spill, how many benefits to offer to bribe this Onmyoji into "forgetting" today's events.

Imagawa Yoshimoto caught the subtle change in these old things' expressions from the corner of his eye, and coldly sneered in his heart.

Things have come to this; how could they still proceed as you wish?

Tetsu-kun is not the sort of short-sighted person who would be blinded by immediate profit.

She rose from the seat of honor, the first to clap, raising her voice to call out,

"Good! Worthy of Mr. Toru's shikigami, so young yet with such bearing!"

Clap clap clap!

Following close behind Imagawa Yoshimoto, the elders in the inner room also rose and clapped together.

Then, cheers and applause erupted from among the spectating samurai and hatamoto — they always held respect for the strong, no matter their prior attitude.

Shiraishi, clapping vigorously along, touched her slightly swollen belly, thinking to herself that it was fortunate she had honestly backed down at the time.

Otherwise... her fate would probably be the same as this Red Oni, turning into several pieces and scattering crackling all over the ground.

Amidst the enthusiastic applause, the Eight Shaku Figure stepped over the Red Oni's massive corpse, walked down the arena step by step, and came before Uesugi Toru, lowering her head to say,

"Toru-sama, I have not disgraced my mission."

"Well done."

Uesugi Toru first patted the girl's spotless little white hat, then pinched a strand of her hair between his fingers and smiled softly: "This time, too, it's thanks to you, Eight Shaku."

"Choosing to contract with you back then was indeed not a mistake."

The girl lowered her head; her little face, expressionless until now, had turned red all the way to her ears.

After speaking, Uesugi Toru turned around, split his mouth into a grin at the Elders still standing there, revealing a very pleasant yet punchable smile, and asked,

"Honorable Elders, how is it? Is the strength of my family's Shikigami still barely pleasing to the eye?"

Silence.

But after a moment of silence, an Elder burst into laughter: "Good! Good! Good!"

"Worthy of being the Great Onmyoji favored by the Head of Family; your strength is truly unfathomable!"

Uesugi Toru, hearing the title "Great Onmyoji" again, did not refute it.

Because there was no need to refute it; even these Elders had probably never seen a few living Onmyoji in their entire lives.

Moreover, in the Sengoku Period, it was hard to say whether there were Great Onmyoji who had reached Ghost God Level even in those mountain valleys.

Under these circumstances, being called a Great Onmyoji once was not a big problem.

"Then." Uesugi Toru shook his hand fan, as if suddenly remembering to ask, "The Breathing Technique that the Honorable Elders promised to let me observe..."

The Elders immediately replied,

"Let Lord Toru decide the time!"

"It doesn't matter how long you want to watch!"

"It's no problem for this old man to take Lord Toru there now!"

"—There's no need to go now; the Breathing Technique isn't anything particularly important to Toru anyway."

Uesugi Toru nodded lightly: "I only need to know that this matter is true."

The Elders all agreed.

To the side, under another tree shade.

Asahina Taichou stared somewhat dazedly at the Elders whose attitudes had completely changed.

He gripped his fist tightly, then looked at the handsome-faced Onmyoji, but in his heart there was no longer the previous feeling of contempt.

Since just now witnessing taking objects from the void, controlling vines, transforming living people, and that girl slaying a demon with one slash, Asahina Taichou had completely and utterly believed that Uesugi Toru was a powerful Onmyoji.

And not some charlatan deceiving the Head of Family and stealing fame.

Because the strength of this demon ghost was beyond doubt.

Even he, to defeat this red-skinned demon ghost, might perhaps need to go through a hard battle.

But now, a Shikigami little girl under Toru's command easily slayed this demon with one slash.

She didn't even know any Sword Technique!

If even his subordinate Shikigami could do this, how much more so his master?

Asahina Taichou took a deep breath, and in his heart very unwillingly admitted:

—I am not as good as him!

The youth closed his eyes, somewhat reluctantly admitting that he had been conquered by Uesugi Toru's powerful strength.

But he did not think his previous actions of doubting and probing had any problem.

Because he felt from the bottom of his heart that his actions were for the good of his lord Imagawa Yoshimoto, and could help her remove the useless people around her.

Moreover, if the one being probed had strength, his probing would collapse on its own—just like this time.

Only weaklings dare not accept probing.

As for offending colleagues, that didn't matter.

If he could exchange the price of being disliked for talented people gathering around his lord, then everything was worth it.

Asahina Taichou was such a person.

His nature was straightforward, and his thinking was also straightforward.

Previously he had been dissatisfied with Okabe Motonobu, and had similarly gone through a series of being slapped in the face, finally being deeply conquered by her just the same, and turned into a fanboy.

—By the way, if Mr. Toru is an Onmyoji, it seems he could also let him solve Okabe Motonobu-nee's recent sleep problem.

Mm, decided.

Later, he would go and sincerely apologize and admit his mistake to Mr. Toru!

Asahina Taichou bit his teeth tightly and thought,

For this, even if it meant Dogeza, becoming a cow and horse, or even giving his most beloved waist blade to Uesugi Toru, he would not decline!

Uesugi Toru felt Asahina Taichou's scorching gaze from afar, and didn't quite understand what this kid was thinking now.

But Uesugi Toru didn't blame him; after all, training muscles into his brain, and then being used as a pawn by these old and crafty people, wasn't his fault.

Moreover, in reality, Asahina Taichou hadn't done anything bad... he seemed to be regretting in his heart too.

Then let this matter just be dropped like this.

He cast his gaze on the "Oni Demon Horns" prompt that had just popped up, and a hint of surprise flickered in his eyes.

【Oni Demon Horns】

【Quality: Rare】

【Effect One: Take directly. After taking, slightly improve Physique, slightly improve Will, and gain the talent "Frenzy".】

【Frenzy: Can be used after suffering heavy injuries, significantly increases current Physique, but will significantly decrease Wisdom.】

Effect One naturally had nothing much to say; slightly improve two-dimensional attributes, then gain a talent whose side effects far outweigh the buff.

The key was Effect Two.

【Effect Two: Fuse it with Yokai Avatar Hannya to slightly improve Avatar quality.】

【Note: This effect is a Hidden Effect.】

【—The horn of an Oni Demon that has survived in the world for a hundred years. Contains its anger of this life, its hardships of this life, and its unwillingness of this life.】

An item that could improve Yokai Avatar quality was indeed something not seen for a long time.

Although knowing it was unlikely, to prevent the Hannya incarnation from making any strange noises while devouring the Oni Demon Horns, Uesugi Toru still did not use it under everyone's eyes.

"Alright, this matter today should be about to end, right?"

Imagawa Yoshimoto spoke, interrupting the lively atmosphere and the sparse applause, letting the surroundings return to quiet once more.

She walked step by step to Uesugi Toru's side, and looked deeply at the Adult in her arms holding a sword.

The girl raised her chin toward the two: "Let's go."

Then Imagawa Yoshimoto looked back, her voice somewhat cold: "Remember to clean this place up; I don't want to see this sight again when I come here next time."

Everyone fell silent, knowing Imagawa Yoshimoto was angry.

Usually she rarely put on a cold face toward the retainers in the Imagawa Residence.

After speaking, she led Uesugi Toru and the other forward.

Seeing Uesugi Toru leave, Asahina Taichou could not care about his father beside him admonishing him with something, and lifted his legs to chase far behind.

Among the crowd, Shiraishi looked at the backs of the few people leaving, then looked at the Oni Demon Horns corpse that had crushed the vine ring, and silently gripped the Seaweed Rice Ball in his pocket.

Even the most inconspicuous little girl beside the boss could easily slay Evil Ghosts...

Then what about someone like him, who is illiterate, cannot even beat an ordinary samurai, and is of no help to the boss anywhere—could he really stay by the boss's side with a clear conscience in the future, enjoying the blessings the boss brings?

Shiraishi had the thought of repaying kindness.

But he was shocked to discover that Uesugi Toru apparently did not need his help at all.

Now that he had entered the Imagawa Clan, if there were unclear matters, the boss could naturally go ask that Imagawa Yoshimoto.

Could he possibly be more learned than Imagawa Yoshimoto or even Taigen Sessai?

In that case, even his originally most valuable role as an intelligence source seemed no longer very important.

For a moment, the nervousness of being abandoned once again welled up in Shiraishi's heart.

Left with no choice, he could only turn nervousness into appetite, pulling out the remaining two Seaweed Rice Balls in his pocket prepared as lunch, and shoving them fiercely into his mouth!

Then, as expected, he fainted from carbonization.

【Your Muromachi Period Sengoku Period Era Reputation +300!】

After walking a short distance with Imagawa Yoshimoto, Uesugi Toru saw the prompt pop up.

He made an "oh" sound in his heart, not expecting this reputation feedback to come so quickly.

Perhaps it was because the crowd joining the fun in the Imagawa Residence had relatively high identities and statuses?

Uesugi Toru heard the slight change in the girl's breathing rhythm beside him.

So he withdrew his gaze from the prompt, turned his head, and opened his mouth.

Only then did he discover that Imagawa Yoshimoto had also opened her mouth, wanting to say something.

"You say it first."

"You say it first."

The two were stunned, then both stopped walking.

"Then I will..."

"Then I will..."

After a helpless smile, Imagawa Yoshimoto raised her finger, holding it before Uesugi Toru's mouth.

"Tetsu-kun."

She smiled: "If that's the case, then let me go first."

But Imagawa Yoshimoto had not yet spoken when hurried footsteps came from behind.

She looked back, tilted her head noncommittally, and retreated half a step,

"It seems Taichou has something he wants to urgently tell you."

Uesugi Toru responded, then turned back and saw Asahina Taichou striding over, seeing him first bow deeply toward himself at an angle far exceeding ninety degrees,

"Mr. Toru! Earlier I was too abrupt!"

He shouted: "Now, Taichou here apologizes to you! If you have any requests, feel free to make them; Taichou will certainly do his best!"

"No need for that."

Uesugi Toru shook his head and helped him up, speaking gently to the youth showing surprise: "Asahina-sama was thinking of Lord Imagawa, so there was nothing wrong; what apology is there to speak of?"

"Mr. Toru..."

Asahina Taichou tightly gripped his hand, his eyes flashing, as if meeting a kindred spirit.

But he did not care that he had just been forgiven, and at the great risk of being disliked by Uesugi Toru, he spoke straight like a complete fool,

"Mr. Toru, these past days Adult Motonobu has woken up in the middle of the night for unknown reasons each time; I suspect invisible demons are at work. I wonder if you could personally go take a look..."

Motonobu?

Okabe Motonobu?

Uesugi Toru was slightly stunned upon hearing this.

This person is considered a pillar-like Commander existence in the Imagawa Clan.

In history, after Imagawa Yoshimoto was defeated at Okehazama, the fallen head was brought back personally by this loyal and brave general.

A thick expectation and curiosity flowed through Uesugi Toru's eyes.

I wonder, what kind of tough man is this Okabe Motonobu!
