Tokyo: Bubble, but the system is Sengoku

Otherwise, if the singers they signed at great expense are kidnapped, they'll have nowhere to turn for help.

Meanwhile, Sato Ryo was unaware that he was being watched. After filming ended, he returned to his hotel and went to see Sanada again.

"So, why did you suddenly ask to borrow my guitar?"

Sanada, exhausted after a long day, came out of the bathhouse and asked helplessly.

To save money, the people in these clubs all slept in communal dormitories, so Sato naturally knew who had musical instruments.

"I just wanted to give it a try."

The eight elements, if from ancient times, would be metal, stone, silk, bamboo, gourd, earth, leather, and wood.

It represents various ancient musical instruments.

He couldn't find ancient musical instruments easily, nor did he have the time to do so. However, silk represents the zither, which, as the name suggests, is stringed. So, the guitar could probably be considered as well.

"Have you studied this?"

Sanada asked with a complicated expression.

"I've studied a little."

I tried it when I was in school, but I didn't have the talent, so I got lazy and stopped trying. Of course, I still have the basics.

"alright."

Knowing that his junior brother wasn't being modest, he probably didn't play that well either.

However, Sanada was not surprised. After all, a person can only be talented in fighting at most.

It can't be that he's an all-rounder, that would have to be incredibly extraordinary.

It's normal that Sato doesn't have musical talent.

With that thought in mind, Sanada also took out his guitar.

"Don't disturb the neighbors."

Sanada gave his instructions.

This is a large dormitory with no soundproofing. Although he was confident he could fight if someone came to his door, he was in the wrong.

"understood."

Sato responded and a sense of familiarity washed over him the moment he took the guitar.

This doesn't stem from the half-baked experience of a past life, but rather from a more familiar feeling, as if it came from countless practice sessions.

Without awakening any perfect pitch, Sato pulled out the second season theme song of "Ike no Genta 80kg" that came with Sanada's guitar.

It was a hugely popular drama last year, and the theme song was "If I Could Play the Piano" sung by the lead actor, Toshiyuki Nishida.

This song is also a representative work of the golden age of new music created after the fusion of Japanese folk songs and Western disco music in the late 70s, and it is definitely of great significance.

Taking a deep breath, Sato, holding his guitar, slowly sat down on the slightly cool tatami mat.

The crisp sound of the guitar, accompanied by the nimble movements of the boy's fingers, creates a gentle and healing melody.

Chapter 61 Incendiary Performance

In an instant, the once lively dormitory fell silent.

Only the melody played by Sato echoed in the room.

They were familiar with the piece Sato was playing, but they had never seen him play it so skillfully.

The piece wasn't particularly difficult, but it was just something Sanada played around with out of boredom, so it wasn't very good.

But Sato is different; emotions aside, at least the music was played perfectly.

Even laymen can tell that from this.

Even if they weren't the most skilled, everyone was still surprised to discover that the boy they knew possessed a skill they didn't know about, and that he had made a name for himself in this way.

The music ended quickly, and everyone slowly came to their senses.

"When did you learn that?!"

Before anyone else could speak, Sanada had already jumped over.

"Want to go to a music store and play a little something when you're bored?"

Sato found an impeccable reason.

However, this only brought Sanada increasing helplessness.

"Just playing a little something out of boredom..."

He was just playing around out of boredom, is the difference really that big? He can barely hear it, while the other person is already at a level where they can perform on stage, a natural talent, huh?

However, while he seems to have plenty of skill, he lacks a bit of emotion, which is normal, or rather, it's one of the few normal things in Sato's abnormality.

Sato, however, was not particularly happy amidst this tranquility.

Not only Sanada thought so, but he did too.

After all, he had seen some truly talented singers in his previous life.

Nakamori is one of those who are full of emotion.

The key to touching people's hearts lies in the fusion of skill and emotion.

In other words, having skills alone makes it difficult for him to become a famous singer or the like.

However, this is actually similar to the emotions portrayed in acting.

Infect......

Sato thought of his first skill: leadership qualities.

He rarely opens it.

After all, there weren't many opportunities, so the motivational aspect mainly came from pre-war mobilization.

Although it is sometimes used in performances, it is like playing dead and is not used very often.

He didn't even use it once during this filming.

He once thought that this skill wouldn't be very useful until he was able to choose his own roles.

However, [Eight Sounds] is a passive skill, while [Leadership Aura] is an active skill.

You can activate multiple passive skills. While some may conflict with each other, like [Sword Drawing Technique] and [Charm], activating multiple skills is fine.

Active skills like [Leadership Aura] and [Acts of Justice] can only be activated at a time.

In other words, if he were to become righteous, he would lose his inflammatory appeal.

That's the case, at least for now.

He didn't know if the subsequent system would have any new features.

However, at least for now, it's not impossible that he might combine the inflammatory elements of [Eight Sounds] and [Leadership Qualities].

There are many songs that are inherently persuasive and have a speech-like quality.

Singing not only has the function of expressing emotions, but also has other functions such as boosting morale.

For example, the adaptation of "Les Misérables" that premiered in France just two years ago is a classic that will be adapted into multiple language versions in the future.

That's classic art, and its status is different from that of pop songs.

Fortunately, Sato had been quite diligent in his academic studies.

Looking back now, there's still a chance.

Since he can't choose his roles or his songs, the sum of the two might be greater than the sum of its parts.

No, it can definitely be greater than two.

The only question is whether they can be used interchangeably.

Although it sounds a bit unbelievable, the system already has so many features, and the two skills don't conflict with each other.

Perhaps, is it possible?

Just as Sato's mind was racing and he was eager to try it out, his mouth started moving again in sync with the guitar.

"I want to convey to you through the piano all the joy of falling in love with you, the sorrow of not being able to understand each other, and the passion that is hard to suppress."

Sato's voice is deep, which is the same as that of Toshiyuki Nishida, the original singer; both are singers who excel in this vocal range.

One has a wealth of experience and countless hours of practice, while the other is a fledgling action-oriented actor.

They don't look like they belong together at all.

It's like one is the original work, and the other is a copy.

However, the technique was flawless, enough to allow everyone to relax for a moment while enjoying themselves.

Moreover, the fact that Sato was able to achieve this level was already surprising enough.

"Great job, Xiao Liang. I think you're even better than those street performers."

As soon as Sato stopped speaking and the room returned to silence, someone eagerly stepped forward and spoke.
