"I like you the way you are now." Luna nodded and expressed her thoughts without any hesitation.

She never hides herself or beats around the bush. If she likes something, she likes it; if she doesn't like something, she doesn't like it. She is very frank.

"It seems we have reached an agreement." Gerald smiled again and said, "Then let's get started."

"I'll build the base. We agreed on this beforehand." Luna winked and removed the wand clipped to her ear. With a wave of her right hand, the front of the wand shone with dazzling light.

Click click click.

Under her magical command, the magical materials that had been placed around her flew into the air. Under the pull of a special force, they were poured into the center of the hexagram magic circle at Luna's feet.

But in this open space within the forbidden forest, a pointed tower suddenly rose from the ground. Countless stones, drawn by miraculous magical forces, gradually piled up and solidified into shape.

Curly-haired boy: Damn it! Wig, you and Takasugi haven’t finished it yet?

Wig: Gintoki, I don't think you should be so anxious.

Book Artist: Yes, yes, you should give them some time. After all, they are still reunited after a short separation. How can you be so harsh?

Curly-haired boy: Okay, I admit you are right.

This is an actor: [Picture]

Upskirt Maniac: Wow, so handsome!

Angel of the Hidden Rain Village: Is this the Tower of Paradise?

This is an actor: just the base. The five towers serve as the base, and the final central tower is the tower of paradise. This will take time, so there's no rush.

Hatchet Girl: Speaking of which, An Ran-san, your Paradise Tower is just a cosplay prop, right? Why did you take it so seriously when building it?

This is an actor: even if it is COS, it should have the power of the original Paradise Tower. This is my basic requirement and the minimum requirement.

The illustrator of the book: So serious. I don't know what the point of doing this is, but I still have to say, you are worthy of being An Ran-san!

Skirt-lifting maniac: This is called striving for perfection. An Ran-sang probably doesn't want to just cosplay the skin. If she wants to be a qualified villain, then real props are also indispensable.

Illustrator: I understand the logic. You don't have to explain it to me so seriously. Anyway, you haven't answered my previous question yet, Ruiko-chan.

Upskirt Maniac: What?

Book artist: Tone, what's with your tone before?

Skirt-lifting maniac: It’s nothing, I think my tone is very normal.

Although she pretended to be calm on the surface, Ruizi was actually a little panicked inside. She felt that her behavior in Academy City was suspected of running away, and she felt a little sorry for her sister.

Wig: The door is open, Gintoki.

551 The Destruction of the Tiandao Clan

The door is located at the back of the corridor.

That wasn't just any ordinary person, but a space portal developed using the latest space technology. To open it, one first needed to obtain the key.

fortunately.

Takasugi, who apparently joined the Tendoshu and Hollow Group, did obtain the key, and he was willing to cooperate with his former teammates Katsura Kotaro and Sakata Gintoki.

As the group members had predicted, Takasugi Shinsuke, the former leader of the Oni Corps, was indeed a spy. He had long known about the existence of Hollows. He also understood that the Hollow was his deceased teacher, Yoshida Shoyo.

To save the teacher, or to destroy the hollow.

Takasugi had been using all the resources and channels he had to try to infiltrate the Harusame Pirates, but with little success. Until half a month ago, a member of the Tendou clan came to him personally.

Only then did Takasugi realize what incredible things his two former companions had done.

The Tendou clan was also being clever, thinking they could use Takasugi to deal with Katsura Kotaro and Sakata Gintoki, so they were very generous to him and even included him in the core of their team.

Unfortunately, these ambitious individuals were ultimately too arrogant. They had thought they could tame Takasugi, the beast, and turn him into a domesticated dog. But a beast is still a beast. Once the time is right, it will bare its fangs.

puff.

Bright red blood splattered, and two members of the Tiandao Clan, dressed in luxurious robes, fell to the ground with hatred.

Takasugi Shinsuke shook the blood off his blade, his eyes calm and indifferent. To him, this was actually a battle of revenge.

Their teacher was beheaded by Sakata Gintoki under the coercion of the Tendoshu and Narakuin, and now they died under their own swords, which can be regarded as the reincarnation of fate.

"Hyū isn't here." Katsura Kotaro had already taken off his purple kimono and changed into a ninja-like black outfit. "Did he run away?"

"Hey, Wig." Gao Shan looked at him with some surprise, frowned and said, "Come to think of it, have you switched to magic now?"

"They're just some practical little tips." Katsura Kotaro knew what he meant, but didn't explain seriously.

He was able to change so quickly because he had personal space. Using his personal space as a wardrobe was incredibly time-saving and convenient. But this couldn't be explained, and it wasn't easy to explain.

"Hmph, a little trick?" Takasugi turned his face away and didn't ask any more questions.

He knew that he and Gintoki were definitely hiding some kind of secret, a very deep secret. This secret had brought about a huge change in both of them, and also made their power reborn.

Gao Shan had witnessed this firsthand while monitoring them, and had also felt it firsthand on the wig's sword just now. Originally, their strengths were similar, but now Gao Shan had been left far behind.

But Gao Shan did not care about these things, nor did he feel lost. He now had only one goal, which was to kill the Hollows and destroy the Tendou Clan.

Boom.

A sudden explosion echoed from the hall on the left, and the entire ground shook violently. A disheveled figure pierced through the wall and landed at the feet of Katsura Kotaro and Takasugi.

He was a thin, red-haired boy with a bright red fist mark clearly visible on his handsome face.

"Oh my, this is truly terrifying." Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, the young man struggled to his feet. He ignored Takasugi and the wig beside him, his eyes fixed sharply on the pierced wall in front of him. "It's been a long time since I've encountered such an opponent."

"Kid, we don't have time to play games like this with you." Sakata Gintoki's familiar voice rang out in Takasugi Shinsuke's ears. A man in a white kimono slowly emerged from the gravel. "Tell me, where are the rest of the Tendo Clan bastards?"

"Needless to ask? Of course it's in the cargo hold at the very back." The red-haired boy smiled and said calmly, "These weaklings have no intention of engaging in a head-on battle with you."

"Huh?" Sakata Gintoki raised an eyebrow and said, "You revealed their location so easily? Are you kidding me?"

"I don't like jokes, Mr. Warrior." The red-haired boy tilted his head and said, "And you seem to have misunderstood my position. I'm not here to be a bodyguard. I'm here only to fight the strong."

"I see, this is indeed your style." Sakata Gintoki nodded suddenly.

Of course, he knew the red-haired boy in front of him. He was Kamui, the older brother of his employee Kagura. Unlike his "weak" sister, this brother was a true battle maniac, having even attacked his own father when he was still young.

"Then, let's stop talking nonsense." Kamui's eyes sharpened again, and he took a breath. "Let's start the second round, Mr. Samurai." His figure flashed, and he rushed towards Sakata Gintoki across from him again.

Seeing his companions struggling, Katsura Kotaro turned and left without hesitation. Before leaving, he fired a thunder roar cannon at the entrance, causing the falling rubble to block the way in.

Wig: Just leave the rest of the Tendoshu and Hollows to me, Gintoki, you can go with peace of mind.

Curly-haired guy: You...

Book Artist: What’s going on?

Curly-haired guy: This bastard blew up the entire hall just to eat alone, damn it!

Skirt-lifting maniac: You two are really worthy of being called such a pair. You are the only one who would stab each other in the back.

Lin Fengjiao: This is probably what they call a bad friend.

Lazy Kitten: Why don't you just unite? If you were willing to unite, this mission would be easily accomplished.

Curly-haired boy: Unity is impossible! Gin-san, I have decided to break up with this bastard. I won't recognize him anymore!

Wig: Humph, this is exactly what I want to say.

Two flashes of silver light passed by, and several lifeless Tendōzō fell at Katsura Kotaro's feet. Their eyes were wide open, their dying gazes filled with a desire for life.

"What beautiful swordsmanship." Xu, who was sitting in the main seat, clapped his hands lightly and said with a smile, "You look much stronger than before, Katsura."

"Until I've completely killed you, I don't agree with that statement." Katsura Kotaro, with a calm expression, slowly raised his head and said calmly, "Are you ready, bastard?"

552 Sakata Gintoki's Map Cannon

scoff.

The silver blade pierced Xu's chest, and bright red blood slowly flowed out from the blood drain tank.

"That's amazing, you win." Xu looked at Katsura Kotaro with a gentle gaze and said softly, "I can't believe that the little brat has grown to this point."

"Even if you say that, it won't make me proud." Katsura Kotaro said in a calm voice with a cold expression: "Put away your tricks, you are not our teacher."

As the two were talking, Sakata Gintoki, covered in dust, walked into the hall. He looked at the dying Hollow with neither sorrow nor joy, only a strange calmness.

"Yes, your teacher died a long time ago." Xu nodded, not denying it. "I strangled him with my own hands. The feeling of strangling one's own existence is truly addictive."

"You are truly hopeless." Katsura Kotaro sighed and turned his wrist.

puff.

The powerful sword energy pierced through Xu's body, instantly shattering it into pieces. However, his purple-black heart was perfectly preserved.

"So that's what you were planning." Seeing Sakata Gintoki pick up the heart, wrap it up, and stuff it into his arms as expected, Takasugi Shinsuke narrowed his eyes and asked, "Aren't you afraid that things won't go as you imagined?"

As long as the heart exists, the Hollow will not die completely. Takasugi Shinsuke has always known about this characteristic.

He also knew that after rebirth, the Hollow would be reborn with a different personality. If they were good in life, they would become villains after death and resurrection. Similarly, if they were villains in life, they would become good after death and resurrection.

And his two companions kept Xu's heart, probably because they hoped that the villain Xu's death would allow the teacher to be resurrected?

But how could it be that simple? Even if he really turned into a decent person, even if he still had the memories of his teacher... he is not Teacher Songyang after all, and he never will be!

Takasugi Shinsuke believed that his two companions must also understand this principle.

"Will there be deviations? Is it really necessary to consider it?" Sakata Gintoki looked at him with an obvious implication.

"Hmph, you still want to be as naive and boring as before." Takasugi Shinsuke retracted the half-drawn blade from his waist and turned to leave.

Curly Hair: Listen, is this what a human being says? Who on earth has remained so innocent and boring? Ah, Wig, who are you talking about?

Wig: Seriously, Gintoki. We're all like this, and we've never changed.

Katsura Kotaro watched Takasugi's retreating figure, his lips curling slightly. He was genuinely pleased to see Takasugi preparing to strike him with his sword. This meant he shared their hope that their teacher would return.

Skirt-lifting maniac: Are you talking about Takasugi? I think he hasn't changed at all, as can be seen from the plot of Gintama.

The Angel of the Hidden Rain Village: It hasn’t changed, but the way it’s done is really unpleasant.

Illustrator: That's perfectly normal, right? Even if it's the same road, everyone walks differently. Some people like to walk, some like to run, and some like to jump... As long as the path is right, I think it's all fine.

Curly-haired guy: Really? I don’t believe it! What if the person walking is using a naked streaking and handstand walking method? Is that okay?

Skull Island Handsome Guy:??? What kind of move is that?

Illustrator: I want to know, what the heck is a naked streaking and spinning headstand? Is that something a normal human can do?

Curly-haired guy: You’ll have to ask that bastard Takasugi, but in my opinion, that’s how he moves.

The villain in Soul Society: He has such a big grudge. It seems that Gin hasn't let go of his companion yet.

Curly-haired boy: It’s impossible for me to let go of it unless he stands upside down and has diarrhea in front of me while wearing a kimono.

Foul-mouthed Man: Oh wow, I like this show.

Lazy Kitten: You're dreaming! We all know this is impossible. Takasugi Shinsuke's personality is completely different from yours. He's not a comedian like you two.

Hatchet Girl: I don’t think ordinary comedians can do this.

Curly-Haired Man: Hey, are you guys looking down on him? Let me tell you, the shitty things this bastard did back in private school were no worse than the wig. At least he did a lot of things like sniffing his own farts under the covers.

Scarlet Snake Fairy: ...

Li Mochou said it was hard to understand this behavior. It was simply confusing!

Lazy Kitten: No way, is this true? That aloof one-eyed Takasugi would do something like this?

Curly-haired boy: Tsk, do I have to lie to you about something like this?

Shark-Faced Guy: Regardless of whether this is true or not, you two have finally passed the test. Are you relieved to not be banned?

Book artist: Yeah, what a pity.

Curly-haired boy: You little rascal, you just want to see me, Gin-san, suffer, right?

Book Artist: You're right, that's exactly what happened! The two of you being able to speak freely in the group is simply the biggest threat to the group's morale!

Curly Hair: Bullshit, it's obviously you, the old driver, who are the danger! Your head is full of improper thoughts, and you only know how to lead the newcomers astray every day!

Book artist: Hehe, the thief is crying thief, right?

Scarlet Snake Fairy: It starts again.

Wig: Gintoki, I think today is a day worth celebrating, so it's better not to argue.
