"I have experienced the period when the eight Sheqi families were about to be destroyed. Naturally, I have also heard of the title of Shadow Emperor, but are you really worthy of the title of Shadow Emperor?" Inuyama Ga asked angrily.
He, who was originally in his eighties, looked like a young man and asked Uesugi angrily, with fragments of memories from that year flashing through his mind.
Many American fighter planes continued to fly overhead, and countless bombs fell from the sky, ruthlessly taking people's lives. At that time, Inuyama Ga also saw the decline of the Inuyama family step by step.
In other words, the defeat of the entire Sheqi family. American warships poured in from the port of Tokyo, Japan, loudly announcing their victory. Countless American soldiers with guns pounced on the defenseless Japanese civilians like wild wolves, killing them. Their flesh and blood were eaten away.
What followed was the secret party's hybrids, who, like wolves and tigers, poured into the world of Japanese hybrids, killing all the hybrids who disobeyed them and establishing their authority.
As the last man of the declining Inuyama family, he must carry the survival and revival of the entire family on his thin shoulders.
Endure the humiliation, find prostitutes that satisfy these disgusting American soldiers, and then receive their disdainful praise in the midst of whistles, and save your family from this deformed relationship.
This kind of thing still makes him feel extremely ridiculous when he thinks about it.
"But you, when the Sheqi family was on the verge of collapse, when the secret party hybrids continued to pour in, and when our common people were invaded, you were not there and you ran away. You are not worthy of being called the Shadow Emperor."
Inuyama Ga was like an evil spirit rising from hell. Even though he was already in hell, he still tried his best to tear off a piece of flesh from Uesugoshi's body.
The other family heads and everyone present looked at Inuyama Ga, the head of the Inuyama family, with a sigh. Most of them were from the younger generation, so they had not experienced the time when the Sheqi Eighth Family was about to be destroyed.
He only had some understanding from historical letters, but Fuma Kotaro, who had also experienced that period, sighed. Of course he understood Inuyama Ga's mood, and it was not the same in his heart.
During that period, all mixed-race families were uneasy, fearing that one day the secret party's butcher's knife would fall on their heads. This fear, over time, condensed into a dark cloud, shrouding everyone's heads.
But following Inuyamaga's words, all the members of the eight Seraki families in the shrine felt a kind of hatred toward Uesugi Koshi. This hatred was not for themselves, but for their seniors and seniors who died during that period. family.
"Hahaha..." Uesugi laughed suddenly, with irony in his laughter. Hearing Inuyama Ga's words reminded him of his mother who was resting in an unknown grave in Nanjing.
"It's no wonder that your vision is so shallow. After all, even I will be temporarily fascinated by the prosperity of the prosperous age." Uesugoshi did not explain, but said something strange.
"If you are the Shadow Emperor, please leave the shrine of the Jaki Hachi family and preserve your last dignity. The Jaki Hachi family does not need to abandon its leader." Fuma Kotaro took a step forward and said to Uesugi Koshi.
The situation is getting more and more serious. Everyone has the same attitude towards Uesugoshi, but Uesugoshi doesn't care about this attitude.
But he will be extremely angry because these people never reflect,
"Everything in the world has its retribution. Does our retribution come out of thin air? You only know how much your family has been hurt and how many of your relatives and friends have died."
Uesugoshi's golden eyes were brighter than ever, because he was angry at this moment, and the boiling dragon's blood was constantly surging in his body.
The majesty of the king's arrival spread throughout the shrine like dark clouds before a storm, striking everyone's heart.
“Why didn’t you speak up for others when we went to seize the interests of other countries? Why didn’t you speak up when your wallets were stained with the blood of dead people from other countries? Why didn’t you speak up when their heads were hanging on bayonets! "
Uesugoshi was like a furious dragon, and his words were like a lion's roar, making their blood surge.
He was not entirely angry because of the people of the Sheqi Hachi family, but he saw his past self among these unrepentant members of the Sheqi Hachi family, the self that used to lie in this shrine drunkenly and dreamily.
At that time, he, like them, believed this was a just war.
But this is all false. There is never justice in war, and life should never be trampled on.
This is a truth he understood when he learned that his mother died at the hands of his own people in the war. At that moment, he was like a monster who had lost his soul, nowhere to find the mother who would always love him.
"This is a wrong war. We made others pay the price with blood. So why do you start complaining when we pay the price, because it only hurts when the butcher's knife falls on you?"
Uesugi walked closer to Inuyamaga, and patted Inuyamaga's shoulder. "I know that you are unfair for yourself, your family, and the fate of the country."
"But what you lost, others also lost. There are never innocent people in war. You paid the price, and I also paid the price. Everyone paid their own price."
Uesugi came closer to Inuyama Ga's eyes, his eyes filled with endless sadness.
"But this doesn't change the fact that you ran away. In times of danger, as a leader, you only focus on running away. You have long forgotten your responsibilities."
Despite this, Inuyama Ga did not give up. He knew that no one in the war was innocent, but as the leader of the eight Sheqi families, he could actually abandon his family at the most critical moment.
Is such a leader called a leader or a traitor?
"Yes, I ran away." Faced with this question, Uesugoshi admitted the fact that he ran away without hesitation. He glanced around and looked at everyone's eyes.
"Or you think I shouldn't run away, I should stay, gather you together, lead you to continue fighting tenaciously against the secret party, and then be defeated by them with an absolute advantage."
"From now on, in Japan, it should be said that there will no longer be any Sheqi family in the world. Of course, you will not be able to stand here and talk without pain in your back."
Uesugoshi let go of Inuyama Ga, pushed him aside casually, and walked towards Tachibana Masamune's position.
He stopped in front of Fuma Kotaro, the head of the Fuma family, and Uesugoshi looked at Fuma Kotaro and the so-called elites of the eight Sheki families behind him.
"Or you think that without a strong force to deter you, the secret party would be so kind to keep you here, and that old guy from Angers would be so kind to cooperate with you."
"Let you establish the so-called Japanese branch and restore the majesty of the past family. The price is just to put you under the control of Kassel College."
Uesugoshi sneered, his face full of ridicule. He was mocking the innocence and childishness of everyone present.
"Are you all three-year-old kids playing that kind of house game? Do you think there are unequal transactions in the world? Without my existence, you would have become a piece of history in Cassel Academy."
"It will only say that during World War II, due to the resistance of the eight Sheqi families, the secret party wiped out all eight Sheqi families. Other than that, there is nothing else."
He pushed aside Fuma Kotaro who was blocking him and walked straight towards Tachibana Masamune, "Since you have occupied this position for so long, you can abdicate now."
Tachibana Masamune didn't say anything, just bowed deeply silently, then stood up and walked down from the head of the family's position to the position below where he belonged to the head of the Tachibana family.
Uesugoshi looked at the back of Tachibana Masamune, who walked silently, with disgust in his eyes. It was only the first time that he and Tachibana Masamune met, but he would never forgive anyone who wanted to murder his child's life.
He sat gracefully on the tatami, instead of sitting on his knees in the traditional way. Instead, he sat on it with his arms spread out like a gangster.
"Now I am the head of the eight Sheqi families. Who agrees and who opposes."
Uesugoshi glanced at everyone from left to right. Wherever he looked, no one could face him for more than a second, because the blood of the emperor was not allowed to be looked at directly by waste.
"I don't agree." A young but steady voice came from outside the shrine door. As the door opened, a thunder passed by, and the dazzling lightning blurred his figure.
"It's the young master." Crow whispered to Yaksha beside him, and at the same time, the flame of hope ignited in his eyes. If there was a young master who was Tianzhuang, then the current situation would not be bad.
Maybe with the strength of the young master, the old guy Uesugoshi will be dethroned from the throne of the patriarch in the next moment.
"Minamoto Chisei." Uesugi Yue said his name first. A king usually has disdain, solemnity, or other similar emotions towards his challenger, but when Uesugi Yue faced Minamoto Chisho, his face was filled with excitement. Surprisingly gentle.
That kind of tenderness can only be felt by a father or mother towards a child, but it was really revealed on Uesugoshi's face at this moment.
"I don't agree with your superiority. The past history should be buried in the ruins. The current era belongs to current people." Minamoto Chisheng walked towards Uesugi from the shrine door, and his golden pupils also opened at this moment.
His golden eyes were as bright as Uesugoshi's, and the pure golden color had an extremely oppressive feeling, but this made Uesugoshi even more happy.
The dragon blood flowing in his body told him that this was his child, a genuine son.
"Dad, you shouldn't abdicate. You are currently the most qualified head of the Sheqi family, not an old antique who emerged from the ashes." Yuan Zhisheng said unceremoniously.
When he heard Minamoto's name for Tachibana Masamune, the smile on Uesugi's face froze, "Good boy, you know a thief as your father, right?"
"It's not like that, childish..." Tachibana Masamune was interrupted by Uesugoshi's words before he could finish his words.
"You don't need to explain, Tachibana Masamune, the head of the Tachibana family, I will personally communicate with Minamoto Chisao, the head of the Minamoto family." Uesugoshi stood up and walked towards Minamoto Chisao step by step.
"I know there are many people who are not convinced by me, so you should open your eyes now and take a good look at how Yuan Zhisheng, the head of the Yuan family, was beaten violently by me."
Uesugoshi's face showed his father's unique "loving" look. Since he was not able to accompany Minamoto's child when he was a child, it is not too late to let him experience the love from his father's iron fist on the spot.
Minamoto took a fighting stance and carefully observed Uesugoshi who was slowly walking towards him. He wanted to win with one strike. As long as he saw Uesugoshi's flaw, he could kill him in an instant.
