My personal opinion on Gensokyo

"You're quite the cheater, Master."

Hearing Jirocho Nishizu's words of praise, Shang Yang casually held the wooden sword and looked at the old samurai in front of him who had survived the brutal battlefield of the Anti-Foreign War twenty years ago.

Feeling his right hand numb from the force exerted by Nishui Jiro just now, Shang Yang exclaimed in admiration and complained.

"It's just a real monster."

Shang Yang's current body was completely reincarnated through the Liangyi secret method of "Heavenly Demon Reincarnation", which completely concealed the external and internal aspects of the non-human creature, and became a human body that is exactly the same as that of ordinary people in the "Gintama World".

However, unlike ordinary people in this world, Shang Yang's current human body carries a trace of the magic power of Shang Yang's original body.

Therefore, Shang Yang's current human body is actually enough to unleash the ultimate potential of humans in this world.

In fact, in the "Gintama World", the human beings in this world have higher physical potential than ordinary people in the "Gensokyo World".

In the "Gintama World", many samurai who have undergone long-term training and practice can basically chop anything into pieces with one sword as long as they have a samurai sword in hand.

This is also the reason why the samurai were able to fight a war against the gods who invaded this samurai country and had a powerful space fleet twenty years ago.

Looking at the old warrior in front of him, whose eyes were as sharp as a sword, Nishui Jirochang, Shang Yang sighed inwardly.

As expected of a former anti-foreignation patriot who participated in the anti-foreignation war twenty years ago, if the samurai were to be ranked according to their strength, then this Mr. Jiro in front of him would definitely be one of the most powerful samurai in this samurai country, just like Sakata Gintoki, Katsura Kotaro and others.

Born in Kabukicho, on this street full of gangsters, he grew up as a gangster, fighting in the swordplay all year round, and perfectly implementing his own chivalrous way. Respected as a great knight, Jiro Nagamizu, twenty years ago, participated in the Anti-Foreign War with his best friend, Tose's husband, Tatsugoro Terada.

During the Anti-Foreign War, Terada Tatsugoro, a close friend who could trust each other with life and death, died after blocking a fatal bullet for Jirocho Nimizu.

Before his death, Tatsugoro Terada entrusted the Tose-no-granny and Kabukicho to Jironaga Nishizu.

Afterwards, Jiro gave up his dignity and abandoned everything. For twenty years, he has been guarding Kabukicho, a street full of gangsters, as always.

This is the leader of the Rat Group and the head of Jiro's family.

Even at his old age, he was still as powerful as a monster, Jiro Nagamizu.

Volume 4 Edo Chronicles: Chapter 181 Princess Kaguya Wants to Act Pitiful

Jiroucho Nisui, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Kabukicho, leader of the Rat Group, and the head of Jiroucho's family, held a samurai sword in both hands, staring at the young man with gray hair who was casually holding a wooden sword in front of him, and then turned his gaze to the black-haired girl with unparalleled beauty standing next to the young man.

Jirou-chan frowned, seemingly feeling annoyed. However, in stark contrast to the frown, Jirou-chan smiled even wider.

"Hey...it turns out that it's not just the younger generation who are amazing, even a young girl has such skills. I really can't deny my age..."

Kaguya, who had put the Tang sword she had just used to knock away the members of the Rat Group into its bamboo sheath without knowing when, heard Jiro's emotional speech. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she raised her sleeves to cover her beautiful face, smiling playfully.

"Thank you for the compliment~ You are not bad, old man. You are already quite old, but you can still fight with my husband. This really makes me learn a lot~"

"So they're a couple..."

Upon hearing this, Nishui Jiro chuckled, turned his wrist, sheathed the sword neatly, and turned his gaze back to Shang Yang.

"How wonderful, young man, to be able to marry a beautiful woman from the Wu family! This reminds me of my youth..."

...No, no, no, Master Lun Rudao, you're overthinking it. I admit that she's a stunning beauty, but being the daughter of a Wu family has nothing to do with the otaku girl next to me...For her, she was just playing just now.

After hearing what Jiro Chang Nishui said, Shang Yang rubbed his hair and complained in his heart.

However, even though he was thinking about something completely different in his mind, Shang Yang had no intention of giving Nishui Jiro any face for long, and he teased him directly.

"...Thinking back to your youth? Master Lunrudao, you didn't marry the woman you wanted to marry when you were young, did you?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard the young man's direct ridicule.

Afterwards, Kaguya was the first to burst out laughing.

Following Her Royal Highness the Princess's unbridled laughter, the other members of the Rat Group also reacted and began to retort indignantly.

"Hey! You, you dare say that about the boss!"

"The boss was just a little too dark back then, that's all! Stop talking nonsense, you bastard!"

"Hey, then why did I hear that the boss had a one-sided love?"

"No, no, no, you're all wrong. I heard that the woman Elder Jiro wanted to marry back then was..."

...Kara.

The sound of a katana being drawn.

After drawing out his katana and making a feint to scare his chattering subordinates into shutting their mouths, Jiro Chang Nishui stared at Shang Yang calmly and chuckled.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that the memories of my youth have not been forgotten. Young man with great potential, what is it that brings you to see me?"

"...Ah, I'm fine."

Hearing the question from Jiro Nisui, Shang Yang answered casually.

"We just don't want you to worry about us posing any threat to that mother-in-law."

"That's all we need to tell Mr. Jiro-chan, and tell the Rat Clan's family."

After answering lightly, Shang Yang turned sideways, reached out and held the princess's soft hand, and greeted her casually.

"Kaguya, let's go, it's time for us to go sightseeing in Edo."

"Follow your orders~"

Feeling her hand being gently held by Shang Yang, Kaguya cooperated and leaned into Shang Yang's arms, smiling playfully.

"My dear husband~"

"Ah, wait a minute."

Before Shang Yang and Kaguya could take a few steps, Nisui Jirocho came back to his senses from his thoughts and spoke again, calling out to the young man and the girl, touching his chin and asking with some confusion.

"Young man, you've been calling me 'Wan Rudao' ever since a while ago. What does that mean?"

"No particular meaning."

Hearing this, Shang Yang did not turn around, but just raised his hand and waved, answering calmly.

"Please don't overthink things. If this name leads to other misjudgments, it will be very troublesome."

After answering, Shang Yang and Kaguya left the residence of Jironaga's family of the Rat Rat Group without hesitation.

Seeing Shang Yang and Hui Ye leave so simply, the members of the (II) Ling Er II Yin San Ling Ba II Gou Shu Group looked at each other, and no one took the initiative to stop them.

At this moment, Nimizu Jirochoya put the samurai sword back into the sheath, looked at the strange young man and the beautiful girl who were walking away, shook his head, and smiled with emotion.

"Oh my... Really, another interesting young person is living in Kabukicho..."

Edo, city streets.

After leaving Kabukicho, Shang Yang and Kaguya strolled leisurely on the sidewalk beside the road.

On the road, countless vehicles are flowing continuously, and the fast-paced life in modern metropolises is also vividly displayed in these continuous flows of traffic.

However, compared to the apparently busy highway, there were not many pedestrians on the roads on both sides of the highway, and as for celestial beings, they were even harder to see.

Although since the invasion of the Celestial Beings, Edo has become an emerging space route port city, a large number of farmers from various rural areas have come to Edo to work, greatly increasing the total population of Edo.

However, compared to the world of Shang Yang's hometown, Tokyo, Japan in the 21st century, the population of the entire Edo in this world does not seem crowded compared to the current Edo.

Walking on the streets of Edo, Shang Yang naturally held Kaguya's soft hand, and Kaguya naturally held the young man's warm hand in return. The young man and the girl held each other's hands and walked along the road beside the highway and under the shade of trees, towards the center of Edo, which was the direction of the huge space transmission tower.

"Hmm, that doesn't feel right..."

As they were walking, Kaguya of the Bamboo Cutter, the Eternal Princess, muttered softly, looking a little uncomfortable and cute, and muttered to herself in distress.

"This is always a bit weird..."

"What's wrong, princess?"

Hearing Kaguya's mumbling, Shang Yang also expressed his concern in confusion.

"What's wrong?"

"Something's just not right..."

Hearing the young man's concerned question, Kaguya answered him somewhat nonchalantly, muttering to herself in distress.

"I have to think of a way... Well, there is a way."

After mumbling, Kaguya showed a faint smile that seemed a little cunning, and suddenly bent down. Under Shang Yang's confused gaze, she raised her head pitifully and looked at Shang Yang, using a pretended, suppressed painful tone, and opened her cherry lips "painfully".

"Ah...Shang Yang, I twisted my ankle..."

"...Princess, are you insulting my intelligence?"

Seeing Kaguya's look that was full of "I'm going to cause trouble", Shang Yang, with a frown on his face, complained without hesitation.

"Even if you want to pretend, please don't let me hear what you said before, okay? What the hell are you doing... Hurry up and get up, my princess. If you don't get up, you will be punished by the family rules..."

Volume 4 Edo Chronicles: Chapter 182 Thank You for Always Protecting Me

"What are you thinking? ...How come I didn't know there were family rules at home? You just decided on them a second ago, didn't you?"

Hearing Shang Yang's cold words, Kaguya snorted with some dissatisfaction, and her pitiful and beautiful face instantly turned into a playful smile.

"Don't mind it, I just want to find a reason to let you show off."

"Performance……"

Hearing Kaguya's straightforward words without concealing her true intentions, Shang Yang simply bent down, rolled his eyes at the willful princess, and asked helplessly.

"...Tell me, Princess, what do you want me to show you?"

"I twisted my ankle and can't walk."

Seeing Shang Yang's performance, Kaguya directly and unceremoniously opened her arms to Shang Yang, her smile becoming more playful.

"So, please, my husband, carry me on your back! Oh, and of course, I'd also welcome a princess carry."

"...Can't you just go on your own?"

Hearing Kaguya's criticism that she was acting too coquettishly, Shang Yang shrugged helplessly, half-opened his eyes, and looked at the willful princess.

"You insist on me carrying you... Kaguya, you usually sit motionless in front of your computer or tablet all day, so I don't say anything. Now you even want me to carry you while shopping. You're so lazy, Princess..."

"……oops?"

Hearing this, Kaguya covered her mouth and giggled.

"Then, Shang Yang, will you carry me on your back?"

"Alas... cold and depressing..."

Seeing Kaguya's playful smile that showed she was completely confident, Shang Yang sighed obviously.

The young man turned around, bent over, with his back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and spoke helplessly.

"...Forget it, come up."

"Sure enough~"

Seeing the young man with gray and white hair turning his back to her and greeting her, Her Royal Highness's smile became even wider. She stood up, cheered, threw herself on the young man's back, stretched out her arms, and carried him on his shoulders. As expected, Kaguya's proud tone sounded on the young man's back.

"I'm very happy that you didn't refuse my request."

"Please don't indulge you this time and then go too far in the future, my princess."

Hearing Kaguya's proud speech, Shang Yang raised his eyebrows, stood up, straightened his body, and advised helplessly.

"It's a deal, this is just the first time. If you act pathetic and lazy again, I'll really use the family rules."

"You will have to have the heart to punish me, my dear husband."

Hearing this, Kaguya's tone was still full of pride.

"Besides, haven't you always been carrying me on your back? Although I'm not the only one."

“These two are completely different.”

Hearing Kaguya's seemingly confusing remarks, Shang Yang, while carrying the equally light and graceful Princess on his back, walked forward and complained while looking back.

"Please don't be so willful as to add another level of weight to me. You know, Princess, you're not light either... huh?!"

Before the young man could finish his words, Her Royal Highness the Princess raised her little fist in dissatisfaction and tapped the young man's shoulder lightly as if in protest, to stop him from making such an impolite joke again.

The young man immediately shut up, turned around and concentrated on walking.

When Shang Yang and Kaguya walked out of Kabukicho together, Kaguya cast a concealment spell on herself that would not attract the attention of others. Therefore, in the eyes of passers-by, Kaguya is just an ordinary, beautiful girl with long black hair, not the Penglai Princess with a peerless beauty.

After walking for a while, there were still few pedestrians on the street. Kaguya, who had been supporting her chin with her hand, now lay on Shangyang's back, apparently wanting to rest for a while.
