Hikigaya, the Son-in-law of Three Surnames

Xiangzi felt that this guy was being sarcastic, and said bitterly, "Okay, okay."

Then Tai San shouted, "Ju, how long are you going to lie there? Why don't you bring your things over here?"

After being kicked again, Tachibana ran to the table at the back, holding his chest, and handed a square gift box to Hachiman.

Hachiman took it and opened it, and found that it was two rings, and then he heard Taizo say: "Okay, give the rings to Raikou, hurry up, don't delay."

Woo woo woo, as an old father I really don’t know what to say after being in this situation.

Hachiman didn't know whether he was angry or amused, but he still slowly held up Lord Raikou's hand, put a ring of the right size on it, and said.

"When did you start planning this?"

Raikou played dumb for once, "What are you talking about? I am the second daughter of the Genji clan now."

"Is your name also Minamoto no Raikou?" Hachiman asked with a smile.

"Yes, all the girls in our family are named Minamoto Raikou. I am Minamoto Raikou No. 2. Minamoto Raikou is my last name, and No. 2 is my first name."

"Okay, how about we name our child Minamoto no Yoshitsune? It can be used for both boys and girls anyway."

Minamoto no Raikou looked at Hachiman throwing a tantrum and felt so much love in his heart that the love in his eyes seemed to melt people.

"Don't be angry. My identity problem must be solved. I have been planning this method for a long time. The outside world also knows that Genji has such a scandal recently. The father was having an affair outside and suddenly had a wild daughter. Even if this daughter looks 80% like me, some people may guess it's a lie, but as long as it is not revealed, everyone can save face and no one dares to say anything."

"And Dad really wants to test your character. I think he is quite..."

But before Raikou could finish his words, Minamoto Taizo shouted, "Haha, I was just sprayed by someone and it was so nice. And if he doesn't agree with me, I will be snapped in half at any time. Do you think I will praise his character?"

The act of giving away his daughter made his father-in-law unhappy, and he was almost stabbed to death. It would be impossible for him to like him.

Hachiman actually wanted to comfort you. In fact, you are lucky. It seems that no one who became my father-in-law has had a good ending so far.

Do you think this sounds like human language?

Chapter 52 Chapter

Hachiman looked at everyone present and had a rough idea of ​​Lord Raikou's entire plan.

Ever since she became pregnant or was preparing for pregnancy, she started contacting her father to get her an illegitimate daughter. It was unprecedented for her to go from being a legitimate daughter to an illegitimate daughter.

And because Minamoto no Raikou had been imprisoned by the royal family for many years, many people on the Minamoto side no longer recognized her. If she had just changed her appearance a little and said she was an illegitimate daughter, there would be nothing much to say except to laugh at Minamoto no Taizo's romantic life in the past.

Then, when it's almost time, I'll go back to Genji's mansion under the pretext of investigating and keep him there, and start preparing for the wedding, and then let Kaori bring Hachiman over.

Hachiman had sorted out the whole thing. He was not angry, but he admired Lord Raikou for being able to do so many things in secret.

But he suddenly thought of something very scary, and he asked: "When you were attacked that time, you knew you had..."

"I know, it's okay. I have saved my strength and won't hurt the child." Minamoto no Raikou smiled faintly.

So scary, so scary.

Gen Taizo seemed a little tired after being tossed around by Hachiman, and said, "Okay, that's it. Hikigaya-kun, you can stay in Osaka for a few days to complete the wedding with Raikou. Anyway, you don't have to prepare anything, you can just stand here when the time comes."

Well, I don't like it when you say that. It makes me feel like a live-in son-in-law.

I am clearly a live-in son-in-law. How many times has this happened?

"There's still some time before lunch, Hachiman-kun, please accompany me to a place." Minamoto no Raikou took his hand.

"Okay, those who need to play should play, those who need to practice martial arts should practice martial arts, let this old man take a rest, I'm tired of you guys tormenting me." Yuan Taisan said impatiently.

So Tachibana left, probably to go to the martial arts gym. When Minamoto no Raikou, Hachiman, and Kaori were about to leave, Minamoto no Taizo suddenly thought of something and said, "Oh, Hikigaya-kun, if you have time, go to the martial arts gym and teach those guys. Although most of them are just playing around, the gym needs a few real fighters to survive. Otherwise, if someone comes to challenge the gym like today, without a single disciple who can hold the fort, the Minamoto clan will lose face. Although Raikou's martial arts are superb, she is a girl after all, and with her current status, it is not easy for her to show up."

"Father, I clearly said that Hikigaya-kun only came here to participate in the wedding," Minamoto no Raikou protested.

But Gen Taizo shook his head and said, "Don't worry. The Genji will eventually let you inherit. The status of the princess is only for a few years. My Genji is a military family. Although the outstanding sons and daughters are now engaged in business and politics, the spirit of the military family cannot be lost. As the head of the family and a woman, it is often inconvenient for you to take action. You need a husband who can control the situation. Now let Hikigaya-kun leave a deep impression on those young people in the martial arts field. This is a good thing."

"I have no objection." Hachiman opened his hands.

Is it fun to bully weak players?

That's so fucking interesting.

Especially looking at their eyes that doubt life, why would you poke my eyes, why would you kick me in the balls, this world shouldn’t be like this!

To put it bluntly, he has no martial ethics and only cares about life and death, not victory or defeat.

When returning to the martial arts hall, Ju couldn't help but shiver. What the hell? Did he catch a cold?

Minamoto no Raikou, Hachiman and Kaori walked out slowly. Under the leadership of Minamoto no Raikou, the three came to the family cemetery.

Then, Minamoto no Raikou slowly walked to one of the tombstones and gently clasped his hands together. Hachiman looked at the inscription in front of the tomb, "Wife of Genji Taizo"...obviously the mother of Lord Raikou.

Minamoto no Raikou opened his eyes slightly and said, "Hikigaya-kun, do you look down on your father for running the Budokan as a social salon?"

Hachiman tilted his head slightly: "It's not that I look down on it, but I think some things are better to be pure. The martial arts hall is used to pursue martial arts. If you want to manage your network, there are many other ways, not to this extent."

Minamoto no Raikou said with a somewhat lonely smile: "Don't be fooled by my father's appearance of a Buddhist old man now. Before I got married, he was a well-known martial arts fanatic. He taught me the razoring skills, although I soon surpassed him. Also, he was the only elder who agreed to let me learn horse riding. There is a horse pasture near my home. I can take you there to play later..."

"But because of this, my father was less calculating when he was young. After I got into trouble, he was at a loss. He watched the family fall into trouble and was powerless to do anything. I secretly went to Tokyo to imprison myself and atone for my sins, but indirectly caused my mother to die of depression."

"Since then, my father has put down his razor and worked hard to govern the country. He even took the initiative to get involved in money-making at his beloved martial arts arena, all in order to rescue me one day. Well, although Hikigaya-kun has already rescued me, my father is now running the Genji clan very well. Thanks to this, I can be your backer."

Minamoto no Raikou said in a low voice, and Hachiman silently closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and prayed for the afterlife of Lord Raikou's mother.

"My mother's biggest concern was my lifelong happiness. I thought that this was how my life would be, but I never expected..."

Minamoto no Raikou gently stroked her belly. She came to the cemetery today just to tell her mother that she is very happy now.

Hachiman looked at her, lost in thought, as if thinking about what he could do for Lord Raikou.

So, he thought about what his father-in-law had entrusted him with. After all, the transformation of the martial arts hall was a regret for Gen Taizo.

Then he knew what he could do.

After staying in the cemetery for a while, Lord Raikou took him and Xiangzi to the horse farm for fun.

Minamoto no Raikou was obviously an experienced hand, and even her pregnancy could not stop her from being at least a little enthusiastic. But it can only be said that Lord Raikou's physical fitness was too strong, and he did not feel any discomfort at all. Kaori was obviously a green hand, but her adventurous spirit was always enough. The trainer at the stable found her a docile pony to ride, and she had quite a lot of fun.

Although the trainer invited Hachiman to give it a try, he declined with a polite smile. He had no interest in riding a horse, and he was not a horse riding girl.

However, he was quickly pulled over by Lord Raikou, who immediately saw the reason for this guy's refusal.

"Hikigaya-kun, that's the bad thing about you. You still have the image of an idol. If you're not the best rider, you'd rather not ride in the first place, right?"

"Hey, wait, give me some face." Hachiman shouted, feeling embarrassed as if his thoughts had been exposed.

He will spend time polishing almost everything he knows until he becomes famous. Well, with so many people watching him, he has a lot of image baggage.

Only His Highness Raikou occasionally treated him as a child. Eventually, His Highness Raikou pulled him onto the horse, then sat behind it and accompanied him to slowly stroll around the grassland. When he thought of the astonished eyes of the crowd, he was so ashamed that he rolled around on his bed at night.

Chapter 53 Chapter

The next day, the morning dew wet the banana tree. Hachiman jumped up from the bed with a thud. Thinking that he was going to be a father for the second time, he couldn't help but smile foolishly.

Soon after washing up, he changed into a sky blue sportswear and folded the suit he had taken off. This was what he asked Lord Raiko for last night. He also received a pair of brand new gassho swords. Although he could use a razor, he could not use it as smoothly as the gassho swords, which seemed like an extension of his palm.

Due to his request, the pair of Gassho swords were also not sharpened. After testing the weight, he put them back into the leather scabbard with satisfaction.

Then he walked out of the guest room. The air was filled with the astringent smell of grass. Following the path of memory, he came to Genji's martial arts hall. Since he was inside the mansion, there was no need to worry about thieves, so he could just push the door open. It was relatively spacious inside, and apart from the weapon rack on the side, there were only some exercise equipment.

Hachiman began his usual daily routine. After running five kilometers around the martial arts hall to warm up, he performed two sets of stances. The Gassho sword training requires a unique wooden stake, which was not available here, so he just made do with the training. Soon, the wooden stake appeared.

Senior Brother Tachibana and a young man named Kuroda came over in martial arts uniforms, apparently also coming to prepare for morning lessons. When they saw Hachiman, they were obviously stunned for a moment.

Kuroda was the first guy who rushed out yesterday and was knocked away by Hachiman. Although his brain was a little dull, his basic skills were still good.

"Hikigaya-kun, you're here so early." Senior Brother Tachibana knew more about Hachiman's identity, while the others only knew that he was the master's guest.

"Good morning." Kuroda said politely.

Hachiman wiped the sweat off his face with a towel, then asked the two, "Want to spar with each other?"

He patted the two swords on his shoulders.

Kuroda and Tachibana looked at each other and nodded. About half an hour later, Tachibana and Kuroda finished their warm-up exercises, stretched their muscles, and then picked up the razor.

Tachibana came on stage first, looking at the strange-shaped short knife in Hachiman's hand and pursed his lips. This guy's skill of using a razor was inherited from the eldest daughter. In essence, it is not the same as the technique handed down from the roots that mainly relies on speed and agility, but it is indeed amazing.

But comparing the two short swords, the long-handled weapon has more advantages, as the saying goes, an inch longer, an inch stronger.

After Kuroda shouted start, Tachibana attacked quickly without saying a word to avoid being suppressed by Hachiman's strength like yesterday. However, what he couldn't believe was that just as he handed over his razor, Hachiman's knife had already stopped in front of his throat.

What happened...?

The referee, Kuroda, also realized it belatedly and shouted, "One...one book."

It was then that Senior Brother Ju discovered that his razor was clamped by another dagger and fell to the side, but the opponent's speed and accuracy were too high, and he was defeated before he could react.

Ju felt a powerless gap.

"My proficiency in using a dagger is better than that of a razor, so don't try to steal my skills." Hachiman replied calmly.

Although he had not needed surgery as frequently in the past six months, his opponent for regular training had become Lord Raikou. Even under the high-intensity pressure, his growth rate had not slowed down.

After that, Senior Brother Tachibana did not dare to underestimate his enemy. Although he still could not defeat Hachiman, he took a defensive stance and was not killed instantly like he was at the beginning.

Hachiman couldn't help but nod secretly. Although this guy didn't have much talent, it could be seen that he had a solid foundation through training. It was just that his fighting style couldn't keep up with the times, and he didn't have that ruthlessness.

Before Senior Brother Tachibana, Kuroda also competed with Hachiman and came to a similar conclusion.

Although Gen Taizo changed the purpose of the martial arts hall, he still did a good job in strengthening the body. At least his core disciples Tachibana and Kuroda did not fall behind in the basics.

After falling down for the last time, the young Kuroda was gasping for breath, but he was more excited. Compared with the usual playing-house fights between his fellow apprentices, the pressure brought by this guy was unparalleled, and every fall seemed to make him realize something.

Hachiman reached out his hand and pulled Kuroda up, then he put down his knife and drank some water, then said to the two of them, "Tachibana, Kuroda, what do you think of the current situation of the martial arts hall?"

Tachibana and Kuroda looked at each other in confusion, as if they didn't understand why the other asked that.

Hachiman lied, "Mr. Gen Taizo has entrusted me to become the 'master' to change the current decadent and playful atmosphere in the martial arts hall."

Although Gen Taizo did ask him to teach these proud little guys a lesson, he never said anything about being a master, as he was the one who proclaimed himself as such.

"Really?" Kuroda said excitedly. In the process of being knocked down again and again, he seemed to have developed a sense of identification with Hachiman.

"Hahaha, really, really, although it's only three days." Hachiman said with a smile, pouring a bucket of cold water on Kuroda.

Kuroda was a little disappointed. What could he do in three days?

Senior Brother Ju was silent for a moment, then said, "The biggest problem with the martial arts hall now is that after the master expanded the number of disciples, some of the junior brothers brought in extravagant habits. They didn't train well, and after learning a few moves, they went out to fight bravely. But in reality, they can only deal with a small thug. After being taught a lesson, they ran back to the martial arts hall and said they wanted to help him get revenge because they were bullied."

But these are not the same as the martial arts that Tachibana pursues. Although he knows that his qualifications are ordinary, he is eager to fight against stronger people to train himself. Kuroda's idea is actually similar.

"But I think your basic skills are actually quite solid, not as playful as you said."

Senior Brother Ju smiled bitterly and said, "Although the master has no scruples about accepting apprentices, the daily training plan is quite strict. However, he will not force the apprentice to complete it. It all depends on his own consciousness to what extent he likes to complete it."

Hachiman nodded as if he understood, and said, "Then you and Kuroda must be the kind of disciples who have completed everything, right?"

Senior Brother Tachibana nodded, and then Hachiman patted his thigh and said, "That's easy. You gather those who, like you, have carefully trained according to the master's plan."

He held up three fingers and said, "In three days, I will give the martial arts arena a brand new atmosphere."

Senior Brother Tachibana was a little surprised, and Kuroda asked directly: "Hey, how do we do it?"

Hachiman said with a smile, "Because time is limited, I can't use my fists to educate those young masters. I hope they won't go back to their old ways after I'm gone. So I'm going to take you to... challenge the martial arts halls, just like I did here that day. I want you to challenge all the martial arts halls in Osaka within three days."

Chapter 54 Chapter

The sun was almost up in the sky when the disciples of the martial arts hall finally arrived.

Generally speaking, Gen Taizo would appear once a week to formulate a training plan, and then would no longer appear, hiding in the tea room to drink tea. The actual teaching was left to several senior peers.

It’s just that these coaches seemed to have received some instructions from Gen Taizo, so even though these guys were very casual in their style, they didn’t say anything.

But today seemed a little different. A young man was sitting on the chair where the master was supposed to sit. However, everyone in the martial arts arena knew him, after all, several people were beaten badly yesterday.

Hachiman took the sports drink and took a sip, then spoke calmly to the dozens of eyes that were either hostile or curious.

“I have three announcements.”

"First thing, Master Taisan officially appointed me as the acting master of the Genji Budokan. The decision-making power is above the coach, but it will only be for three days."

Although there was an uproar at the table when he told them that he had become the master's agent, after he said three days, people inexplicably began to calm down. Three days, what could be done in three days?

"The second thing is, I have decided to take you to fight in all the martial arts halls in Osaka in the next three days."

Hachiman spoke calmly, but everyone below was in an uproar and making a lot of noise. It wasn't that the young people didn't have passion, but there was a realization in front of them.

"Hey, do you know how many times we have challenged and been challenged in the past two years?" shouted a fat boy with freckles on his face.
