People in Type-Moon have a hero simulator.

[You made Miyamoto Musashi follow in your footsteps, and with that, your carnage began.]

You have no reason to show mercy. These soldiers who went to war are neither innocent nor innocent; this weapon of slaughter should never fall into the hands of feudal lords.

[Your blade never faltered; with each kill, Murasame didn't dull, but instead grew even sharper.]

……

Karma accumulates. This kind of thing is originally intangible, but after it accumulates to a certain level, even ordinary people can vaguely sense the ominous aura emanating from Fujimaru Kyoya.

"This is getting really funny."

Cold sweat broke out on Hideyoshi Hashiba's forehead. This was the first time he had ever seen such a clean and efficient way of killing someone. He then glanced at Katsuie Shibata, who also glanced at him at the same time.

monster.

These are the words the two people read in each other's eyes.

Run.

A wise man does not linger under a crumbling wall. Hashiba Hideyoshi was not a reckless man like Shibata Katsuie. He was not the commander-in-chief this time, and preserving his life was his top priority.

"Damn it, these past few days the rumors about the Demon Sword Monk have been spreading, why hasn't the karma I'm carrying reduced that guy's fighting power?"

Hideyoshi Hashiba quickly left the battlefield, and after waiting in a secluded place, his expression gradually darkened, a look completely different from his golden hair.

"Tsk~ Originally, I used karma to deplete Chen's cultivation, turning him into a killing machine to raise Murasame, but I never expected it to develop to this extent."

The reason why the legend of the Demon Sword Monk spread so quickly was not only due to Fujimaru Kyoya's own strength, but also partly due to Hashiba Hideyoshi's behind-the-scenes support.

By attaching rumors to karma, Fujimaru Kyoya's mind is disturbed, and then Fujimaru Kyoya is made to kill the feudal lords' forces who are fighting for the demon sword.

When both sides are severely weakened, Hideyoshi Hashiba will be able to reap the benefits and acquire the cursed sword.

But now everything is in chaos.

Not only did Fujimaru Kyoya suppress the demon sword, but the karma didn't seem to weaken him either. What exactly happened?

"Damn it, if I can't get the Demon Blade in its complete form, how am I supposed to compete for this world?"

To gain Oda Nobunaga's trust, Hideyoshi Hashiba warmed his shoes with his chest in the snow, all for the sake of greater power.

It can't be because he's a foot fetishist, that would be really off-putting.

Oda Nobunaga is indeed only one step away from unifying the country, but will this country be ruled by a woman?

A huge conflict is bound to break out at that time, and Hideyoshi Hashiba must prepare for that time.

Shibata Katsuie, Niwa Nagahide, Akechi Mitsuhide...

Each of them is an ambitious man, not to mention Tokugawa Ieyasu, who has been keeping a low profile all along. To seize power from these formidable enemies, Toyotomi Hideyoshi has a long and arduous road ahead.

Chapter 95 Musashi's Goal

News of Fujimaru Kyoya's annihilation of Oda's 3,000 troops in a single day spread quickly.

Shibata Katsuie, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Oda, was routed. If Fujimaru Kyo hadn't refrained from pursuing the fleeing enemy, the Four Heavenly Kings of Oda might have truly been reduced to four men.

This is certainly not out of compassion, but because the karma is truly unbearable.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Musashi looked at Fujimaru Kyoya's pale face, a sight she had never seen before, especially since he had barely sustained any injuries during the battle.

"It's alright, you'll be fine after a rest."

Fujimaru Kyoya's injury was not a "wound" but rather the growing pains of karma transforming him, a process of moving towards inhumanity. He was prepared for this.

After all, once the rumor of his ability to kill three thousand people in a day spreads, more people will fear him, and this fear, mixed with karma, will want to destroy his cultivation and turn him into a killing tool like the demon sword Murasame.

Someone is cursing themselves.

Fujimaru Kyoya was almost certain of this, but he had no intention of pursuing the matter, because he had killed so many people, and the number of people who wanted to "curse" him was countless.

Are we supposed to have Fujimaru Kyouya use his "clairvoyance" to find them one by one and kill them all?

This is clearly unrealistic, and this karma is mixed with the fear of most people. Although there are people guiding it, overall it is indeed a "price" that Fujimaru Kyo must also bear.

Those who cultivate themselves are such troublesome people.

Are you scared?

"..."

Fujimaru Kyoya's inexplicable question silenced Miyamoto Musashi. Since the incident of the three thousand slashes in one day, the two of them had traveled to many places and seen many traces of the battlefield.

The dead lay scattered on the roadside like garbage.

Normally, Miyamoto Musashi would simply walk around such situations, but after killing someone, she gradually found it impossible to continue ignoring them.

Human life is incredibly precious, yet a war can...

"I actually hope that Oda Nobunaga can conquer the country."

Miyamoto Musashi provided her answer: at this time, Oda Nobunaga was only one step away from stabilizing the country. If she could seize power, war would probably be avoided.

"It's not that simple."

Fujimaru Kyouya, however, did not see it that way. He did not explain much, but simply silently recited the Rebirth Mantra for those who died on the battlefield.

Oda Nobunaga was clearly a person who did not adhere to tradition. She was the first person in Japan to use firearms in actual combat, and now she has put forward the idea of ​​"unifying the country by force".

It was a concept of "reform," the very existence of which was a challenge to all old systems. Even though she had already defeated the Dragon of Echigo and the Tiger of Kai, it was not surprising that she ultimately perished at Honnoji.

Will Oda Nobunaga fail?

"Ah."

"why?"

"Who knows? Maybe it was a misjudgment on the battlefield, or maybe it was betrayal by her subordinates. Besides, her current situation is really not good."

Let's not even mention the Uesugi, Takeda, and Mori clans, but Oda Nobunaga's burning of Mount Hiei offended the Japanese Buddhist community. You should know that there is a type of mercenary called "monk soldiers" in this world.

These guys are ruthless and extremely powerful. Oda Nobunaga's fire directly pushed all the monk soldiers to the opposite side.

"The most crucial point is that Oda Nobunaga was actually a woman."

"what?"

Fujimaru Kyoya's words had a significant impact on Miyamoto Musashi. Although there were rumors that Nobunaga liked to cross-dress, this was the first time he had actually spoken of a woman...

"Her identity as a woman will become a problem for her in her conquest of the world."

"But after she conquered the world, shouldn't she also strive to secure a better position for women?"

Although Miyamoto Musashi may seem like a wild girl, she was still born into a samurai family and had heard some stories about China.

When Wu Zetian ascended the throne as a woman, this led to the improvement of the status of many women at the time, and there were even cases of women entering the court as officials.

Fujimaru Kyoya's original intention to persuade Miyamoto Musashi to retreat has now become the hope in the latter's eyes.

"You're thinking about something very dangerous."

"I know."

Have you made a decision?

Fujimaru Kyoya had been trying to get rid of Miyamoto Musashi for some time, but now that the other party was determined to leave, he became indecisive.

Oda Nobunaga was not a wise ruler.

"Why not end this chaos quickly, and make Nobunaga a daimyo, thus improving the status of women? It's a win-win situation."

It sounds simple, but no one knows how many difficulties there are in reality. During the time Miyamoto Musashi studied under Fujimaru Kyoya, Fujimaru Kyoya did not teach her swordsmanship, but he taught her everything else that needed to be taught.

Wealth and honor cannot corrupt him, poverty and hardship cannot sway him, power and force cannot subdue him, and he dares to be the first in the world.

“This disciple is unfilial, having left before serving my master for a long time.”

“I told you, I am not your master.”

Fujimaru Kyoya's mouth is probably harder than an iron bell. They have known each other for more than half a year. Although he did not teach Miyamoto Musashi swordsmanship, he has called him "Master" many times, so he has the title.

After all, what Fujimaru Kyoya has in his chest is a heart, not a penis, so there's no reason why licking it will make it harder.

“I didn’t teach you anything, and I won’t stop you from having ideals now, but you have to understand that being a woman is always troublesome.”

"I will join the army as a man, so please don't worry, Master."

She quickly unified the world and gave birth to the country's first female ruler.

For the first time, Miyamoto Musashi saw his dream.

"A thousand times to draw the sword, a thousand times to swing the sword, a thousand times to sheathe the sword every day—this disciple will never forget."

Fujimaru Kyoya did not give Miyamoto Musashi much guidance in swordsmanship, but the phrase he uttered in a critical moment some time ago, "The demonic heart unleashes the killing, the divine will stops the killing, both gods and demons are me, yet neither gods nor demons are me," was more powerful than countless sword manuals.

This honest Miyamoto Musashi will never forget.

"Take care."

"Take care of yourself."

Miyamoto Musashi left, leaving Fujimaru Kyoya alone to recite scriptures for the dead.

Fujimaru Kyo didn't reveal what might happen in the future, because he knew that Musashi couldn't be persuaded to back down with just a few words.

After all, he had done something similar, and knowing it was impossible, he and a socially anxious classmate saved 129,600 people for future generations.

Fujimaru Kyou had no intention of interfering in the history of this period. He only wanted to cultivate in silence, to convert the demon sword in his hand, so that future generations would not be troubled by this sword.

Even if the price is giving up the opportunity to become a Buddha, Fujimaru Kyoya is willing to do it.

Chapter Ninety-Six: The Sixth Heavenly Demon King (19/28)

"Really? It failed."

Inside Kyoto, a "man" with waterfall-like black hair looked at the two generals who had returned defeated, his gloomy expression revealing his inner turmoil.

"I underestimated the Demon Sword Monk's strength. I am willing to..."

"Enough with these useless words, leave your useful bodies to serve me."

Oda Nobunaga understood that the fact that the two Four Heavenly Kings, with only three thousand men, could not defeat the enemy was clearly not a matter of "dereliction of duty," but rather a complete misjudgment on their part, and no one could be blamed for it.
