Kamiyakawa didn't reply, but silently stared at the demonic sword in Lai Yuanchao's hand.
As soon as they stepped onto the other side of the River Styx, the moment the copper token of the Genji clan disappeared, Ghost Hand had a strange reaction.
And now that Minamoto Yoritomo appears, this feeling is even stronger.
The stress in Ibaraki's hand is probably related to the sword in Lai Gento's hand.
"That sword, could it be Onikiri?"
Onikiri, a famous sword from the Heian period in Japan.
According to legend, it was made by Genji Tada Mitsunaka, and its original name was Hikigiri. It was a pair with another famous sword, Kneemaru.
Later, both swords passed into the hands of Minamoto no Yorimitsu, and each had a legend——
Onikiri was nicknamed "Onikiri" because Watanabe Tsuna, under Minamoto Yorimitsu, used it to cut off the wrist of the ghost god Ibaraki Doji at Gojo Ferry. Kneemaru, on the other hand, was nicknamed "Spider Kiri" because of his record of killing earth spiders.
Both swords are spiritual blades for killing ghosts and gods.
Later, Onikiri also had a record of killing ghosts in Togakureyama held by Kiso Yoshinaka. From the end of the Heian period to the establishment of the Kamakura shogunate, Onikiri was passed down to Minamoto Yoritomo, and it is said that it was a treasured sword that could only be used by those in power in Japan.
However, the records of Onikiri changing hands stopped with Minamoto Yoritomo, and there is no record of subsequent shoguns holding this sword.
No one knows where this powerful and famous sword has gone.
Because he holds the Hand of Ibaraki, Kamiyagawa has carefully checked the situation related to Onikiri.
It is acceptable that this sword will appear in Minamoto Yoritomo's hand.
After all, the first shogun was also recorded as the holder of Onikiri.
"No wonder Onikiri's record was cut off when it arrived at Minamoto Yoritomo. Was he taking Kaoqing down to the Santo River? How did he bring this thing down?"
Kamiyakawa thought this in his heart, while still keeping an eye on the person in the belted attire, and said in a deep voice: "Minamoto Yoritomo?"
The calm middle-aged man nodded: "It's me."
Well, he is indeed Minamoto Yoshitsune's brother.
"I know your name is Kamiyagawa. I heard the conversation you had with Kuro just now. You can defeat Kuro and get his praise, which is very impressive."
It seems that when Kamiya had just fought with Minamoto Ikuro, Minamoto Yoritomo had been hiding and watching somewhere in the sea of flowers.
I don’t know if it was the desolation, anger, helplessness, despair and other emotions on the other side that mixed together to cover up his undead aura. Before he took the initiative to show up, Kamiya did not directly notice his existence.
"So what do you want to do when you see me?" Kamiya continued to observe Minamoto Yoritomo, and at the same time used his peripheral vision to carefully observe the tachi emitting a strange purple energy in his hand, "Actually, I think I should see you more than me. The younger brother is right."
"Haha." Minamoto Yoritomo moved the corner of his mouth and smiled, but his overall expression was not smiling. This guy seems to be very deep in the city. He is completely different from his ninth brother. It is hard to see what he is thinking. "I don't have the face to see Jiulang."
"Um……"
really.
The two brothers from the Yuan family can share adversities, but they cannot share blessings.
Eventually it developed into fratricide, ending with Minamoto no Yoritomo raising an army and forcing his younger brother to death.
Even if he went to the underworld, Minamoto Yoritomo probably wouldn't be able to face Minamoto Yoshitsune.
The brotherhood between princes, generals and prime ministers is probably like this.
"This Lord Kamiya." Minamoto no Yoritomo spoke with honorifics, "I am here to see you on behalf of the master of Styx."
"Master of Styx?"
"Yes, Lord Yama. I can't explain the reason clearly, but I felt the call of that Lord when I woke up."
"Yama..."
It seems that in Japanese Buddhism, the underworld is indeed controlled by Yama or Ksitigarbha.
Kamiya's eyes were deep and he didn't completely believe what the other party said: "Why are you the representative?"
"I can't tell..."
Minamoto no Yoritomo smiled bitterly and shook his head.
The ball flowers in the sea of flowers on the other side swayed automatically in the absence of wind.
And the dead soul of the shogun seemed to hear something in the desolate and silent atmosphere: "Lord Kamiya, you came from high heaven, right?"
"Yes."
"You must have walked all the way to the other side of the Styx River and have seen the situation in the area ahead. Lord Yama's original men have lost control, and there is no one available for that Lord now."
"So you, who was just awakened, as an undead soul and as part of the River Styx, were chosen as representatives by Lord Yama?"
"I think so."
Kamiya can accept this explanation for the time being.
Combined with the fact that his aura was completely covered by the sea of flowers on the other side just now, it is estimated that Minamoto Yoritomo does have a certain connection with the owner of Santukawa.
"Then what do you, Lord Yama, who you represent, want you to convey to me?"
"The Lord instructed that the Santukawa was defeated in the battle with the Kingdom of the Underworld for the power of death, resulting in the complete devastation and chaos of the Styx River. The Lord wants to form an alliance with you, who represents Gao Tianyuan."
"Is this so..."
It seems that the previous guess was correct.
The Santuchuan forces did have a direct conflict with the forces of the Huangquan Root Country.
It can only be said that Yin Xie Namei has made quite a few enemies, and the Underworld Mother Goddess seems to have caused disaster to all the forces in the other world.
"What are the conditions for the alliance?" Kamiya asked.
After exploring the Santuchuan map, the most real feeling is that the situation of the Styx forces is quite miserable.
The original power was gone, and almost all the evil spirits from the past had fallen into madness.
The so-called "alliance" is definitely not as simple as a verbal agreement saying "from now on we are on the same side." Lord Yama probably wants to get some support from Gao Tianyuan, represented by Kamiya.
"The Lord Yama has fallen, and only some remaining consciousness remains in the Santu River. She hopes that you can snatch her former divine bones from the underworld forces and bring them back to the Styx. After the divine bones are brought back, It will merge with the remaining consciousness of the Great Lord to give birth to the next generation of Lords of the Styx. As long as all this can be completed and order is restored to the Styx, the newly born Yama will bow to Gao Tianyuan and provide you with generous thank you gifts. .”
Minamoto Yoritomo said this.
He is only responsible for passing on the message. The specific words such as "godly bones" and "second-generation Yama" are not fully understood.
But it’s okay if Minamoto Yoritomo doesn’t understand, as long as Kamiya can understand.
"Sounds like a bad promise."
Kamiyagawa was undecided.
Do you want to do this with me, right?
"I can pay you a deposit first." Minamoto Yoritomo, who is the temporary envoy, smiled bitterly. As he said that, he held up the magical Odachi with both hands and bowed slightly, "As long as you, the god of Takamagahara, can agree, I am willing. I present Onikiri to you."
Minamoto Yoritomo actually doesn't know whether Kamiya is a god from Takamagahara.
And there was a distinct smell of strangers on his body.
But at this time, there is nothing wrong with supporting the other party.
"This Onikiri belongs to you, right?" Kamiyagawa's eyes fell on the Onikiri with great interest, "According to you, you just woke up and were selected as the representative of Styx by Yama's remaining consciousness. .Isn’t it a bit too loyal to be willing to offer up my famous sword in just a few words?”
no way.
Minamoto Yoritomo is a tycoon, so you have to be careful when dealing with him.
"As you can see, I am the dead soul of the Styx, and I have no choice but to stand on that Lord's side. If you can fulfill Lord Yama's instructions, I will naturally be able to get my benefits here. of."
After all, he was the founder of Japan's first shogunate. His hard work and courage in his youth gave him a very strong ability to analyze situations.
Not long after waking up on the other side, I was able to calmly recognize my situation and quickly adapt to my new identity.
As Minamoto Yoritomo said, he is just a dead soul on the other side of the Styx, and he has no choice but to side with the master of the Styx.
What else could happen?
Wandering in the sea of flowers on the other side, and then wait until who knows when to fall asleep again?
And assisting Lord Yama to bet on Gao Tian's original mysterious god. If one day, the underworld really re-establishes order, based on what Minamoto Yoritomo has done today, it will not be difficult to gain a place in the new underworld.
"Santuchuan has been completely destroyed by the Kingdom of Huangquangen, so he keeps his attitude low when facing me... Do you want to form an alliance? Help build a new Styx..."
Kamiya began to weigh the pros and cons in his mind.
Logically speaking, Santuchuan and Huangquangen Country also have enmity.
The enemy's enemy is indeed someone who can be won over. If the power of Styx can be re-established, it will definitely be helpful to Shengu in the future against the Kingdom of Huangquan Root.
As a growing co-leader of ghosts and gods, there is nothing wrong with developing according to the idea of "making more friends and making fewer enemies".
Moreover, even if we only talk about the present...
Kamiya tried his best to remain calm on the surface, but he was really greedy for the Onikiri.
According to the popularity and legend of this famous sword, the strength of the weapon is estimated to be higher than that of Nanquan Ichimonji, who was ashes of war.
Even if they suddenly launch an attack now and let the shikigami swarm in to deal with Minamoto Yoritomo, they can still snatch Onikiri over.
But although the Lord of the Demons said that he had fallen, who knew if the master of the Styx had any back-ups?
And even if the other party reasons first, Kamiyagawa will also be reasonable.
The same is true with his attitude towards Cam Yin.
This is the bottom line for his behavior in the other world.
"I will find a way to help Lord Yama behind you regain the divine bones. Gao Tianyuan and Santukawa have a common enemy. I hope she can keep her promise."
Kamiyakawa raised his hand and took Onikiri down.
It can be regarded as taking over the branch line commission from Santuchuan.
As soon as he took over, the demonic aura on the sword completely vibrated, and the curved blade trembled violently. What it made was not a buzzing sound, but a whimpering sound similar to the howling of a ghost.
[The remaining consciousness of Yama in Santukawa sends a request to you through the soul of Minamoto Yoritomo. I hope you can take back the divine bones that originally belonged to Lord Yama, give birth to the second generation of Yama, and assist Santuchuan in rebuilding order in the underworld. ]
[Get Onikiri! ]
[Item name: Onikiri]
[Quality: Legend]
[Effect: None (can add war gray effect)]
[Explanation: Fish skin is covered with fragrant wood sheath, yellow and white are mixed with copper. The famous sword made by Yuan Manzhong can cut gold and jade when it is first made. Later, he was matched by Minamoto Yorimitsu, cut off the arm of the great demon Ibaraki Doji, and killed many evil demons. The blade of the sword has consumed countless amounts of demon blood, and has become extremely strange and difficult to control. It is a famous demon-slaying sword that is second to none in the world. ]
Holding the Onikiri, Kamiyagawa felt the Ibaraki tattoo on his right shoulder blade became more restless.
The scales of the ghost cage hand that had been exhaled were trembling.
The relationship between Onishe and Onikiri is similar to that of "old enemies", and they will definitely not be dealt with.
However, Ibaraki's hand is now the property of Kamiyagawa, and he cannot disobey his master.
The power of thunder surged in the heart, kidneys, and liver. The three colors of thunder did not blend with each other (to prevent them from exploding). They flowed through the body and blocked the right shoulder blade.
Under Thunder's coercion, the ghost hand finally calmed down, and its scales disintegrated and retracted into the tattoo.
It was the ferocious yet feminine and charming tattooed face of Ibaraki, which inexplicably conveyed a sense of grievance.
Opposite him, Minamoto Yoritomo didn't know what was going on in Kamiyagawa's body, but he just continued to carry out his duties to convey the message to Yama's remaining consciousness: "That lord will definitely abide by his promise."
"Which Yin god in the underworld is in the hands of Yan Mo's divine bones?"
Because he accepted the request, Kamiya asked one more question.
"I don't know about this, and neither does Yama-sama." Minamoto no Yori shook his head.
"That's it...since we don't have a clue, naturally retrieving the divine skeleton won't happen overnight. I can't give any guarantee as to when we can get it back."
"Sir Yama, you can wait, you can wait for a long, long time."
"That's best."
For the owner of Styx, perhaps no time is long.
Anyway, Kamiya, as the original master of Gaotian, is destined to be an enemy of the country of the underworld. He just needs to fight against the underworld while looking for the bones of Yama.
Nothing is delayed for him.
After accepting the Onikiri, Minamoto Yoritomo still stood still, with some complicated emotions appearing on his blue-grey ghost face. He seemed to have something to say.
"Is there anything else?" Kamiya asked him.
"I have a question for Lord Kamiya."
"Are you representing Yama, or are you representing yourself?"
"It's a personal matter."
"Then you ask first, and then we'll talk if you can answer."
Minamoto Yoritomo hesitated for a while: "Kamiya-sama, according to Yama-sama, you can go back and forth between Takamagahara and Santoku River, and you can also go to the human world, right?"
"Yes." Kamiya did not deny this.
"So what time is it in the world now, the shogunate..."
This is what I wanted to ask.
"The current world is more than a thousand years after your death. As for the shogunate, it no longer exists."
When Minamoto Yoritomo received this answer, he didn't have much emotion: "One thousand years is really a long time. So what do people think of me now?"
Kamiya thought for a while and answered based on the Japanese history he had mastered: "It's not bad, the evaluation is quite high. After all, you founded the shogunate and were the first shogun."
Well, I guess there will be a chance to be effeminate and stuffed into the game card pool.
Didn't expect it!
A little shock from a thousand years later!
Anyway, your brother has already received such treatment.
But don't tell me, your brother is still cute after becoming a girl.
I just don’t know if Yoritomo Minamoto can accept such a development.
"Then what happened after I died?"
Minamoto Yoritomo has quite a few problems.
But considering that he had sacrificed Onikiri, Kamiya still told what he knew as much as possible: "After you died. It seems that your father-in-law, Hojo Tokimasa, and your wife, Hojo Masako, fully accepted your political legacy.”
It was more than ten years after Minamoto Yoritomo's death.
The Hojo family, who had strong political skills and was the main force in the early war, came to the political center. The power of the world that the Minamoto family had fought so hard for fell into the hands of their relatives. Afterwards, the Minamoto Shogun family was completely wiped out. The real power of the Kamakura shogunate was completely lost to the Hojo family. control.
After the extermination of the Genji family, the Kamakura shogunate was successively held by ministers and princes, but they were all decorations without any real power.
Real power has long been monopolized by the Hojo family.
"That's right... Shizheng Tongzhengzi, he really has good methods..."
Minamoto no Yoritomo finally grew frustrated.
Minamoto Yoritomo didn't speak anymore, and his original mature and steady middle-aged image seemed to have become much more decadent. He bowed towards Kamiya River and then disappeared in the sea of flowers.
He spent his whole life in the military, even fighting against his fellow soldiers. Is this the result he got in the end?
The Yuan family...is still gone.
So is it all worth it?
