Tokyo, December 31st, night.
After a lively New Year's Eve dinner, the six of them cleaned up the messy restaurant.
As a result, Shimura Shinpachi squatted in the corner and cried, while Shimura Miao and Kagura happily changed clothes and went shopping.
Sakata Gintoki went out for a drink with Takasugi Shinsuke and Katsura Kotaro, but once they got out, the three of them stopped smiling.
Sakata Gintoki asked: "What on earth is going on with you two guys?"
"That's right, we plan to assassinate old man Tokugawa." Takasugi Shinsuke said in an understatement, as if he was talking about what to drink.
Sakata Gintoki picked his ears, "Huh? I seem to have forgotten to check the weather forecast. I'd better go back and check it before talking."
Having said that, Sakata Gintoki did not leave, waiting for them to tell them the reason.
Katsura Kotaro said: "We must prevent him from further destroying the current structure and not allow order to return to the previous era when bureaucratic families were in power and ordinary people were just slaves."
Sakata Gintoki had a toothache, "When did you two become warriors?"
Katsura Kotaro combed his long hair, "Just say whether you do it or not."
"Can I say not to do it?" Sakata Gintoki glanced at the knife at his waist.
"No." Takasugi Shinsuke said coldly.
Sakata Gintoki surrendered, "By the way, are you sure you can defeat that old man Yuan Ryuzai?"
"I don't know," Katsura Kotaro tossed his hair coolly, "It's precisely because I don't know that I took action."
Although Sakata Gintoki had a dead eye, he also understood the implication. Now Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni is not strong enough, and they still have a chance of winning.
If they don't take action, when Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni becomes stronger, their chances of winning will be slim, and they may never have the chance to take action again.
Sakata Gintoki scratched his head, "What do you want me to do? Let me declare first, I will not assassinate."
"I understand, you are a drag." Katsura Kotaro smiled.
"Drunk and causing trouble, the Shinsengumi are being held back." Shinsuke Takasugi said, "Isn't Isao Kondo pestering Miss Amiao? You have the ability to hold them back."
"You can have this." Sakata Gintoki touched his chin, "Where's the time?"
Katsura Kotaro said: "To be determined, the next time the zombies are strengthened, it may be January 7."
"Fish in troubled waters, okay." Sakata Gintoki raised his eyebrows, "What about the reward?"
The two bad friends looked down upon each other, and Takasugi Shinsuke curled his lips, "That's my reward for not telling you."
Sakata Gintoki protested, "Hey, you can't let me buy a bar by myself. I am a house of business after all. I will never do a loss-making business."
Gui Xiaotaro said angrily: "I don't believe it. You don't have wine at home, so you can just take it to the park and drink it."
Sakata Gintoki spread his hands and said, "It's really gone. I exchanged it with that old woman Toshi for dessert."
Katsura Kotaro laughed, "Okay, I'll give you some."
Sakata Gintoki pointed his finger, "Speaking of which, you should have a lot of supplies, right? How about lending me some to buy eggs?"
"Go away, stop pushing yourself too far." Katsura Kotaro said angrily.
"By the way," Sakata Gintoki changed the subject without blushing, "Does the teacher know about this?"
Katsura Kotaro shook his head, "I don't know."
"No, are you really sure that Old Man Tokugawa intends to restore order to its original state?" Sakata Gintoki said seriously, "I don't think that guy Yamazaki will let Old Man Tokugawa do that."
"The management of artificial intelligence humans has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If you want to destroy this method and replace it with adults to have full management, everyone will not agree."
Takasugi Shinsuke shook his head and said: "Artificial intelligence is easy to solve. Any large-scale disaster can destroy the network."
"Then as long as you delay, you can hold the power of dominance in your hands."
"Compared to power, letting something like the Internet disappear is not a small price to pay."
Katsura Kotaro said seriously: "Actually, Yamazaki is letting Old Man Tokugawa go, otherwise no committee would have been established. This has encouraged Mr. Tokugawa's ambition."
"The teacher said that Yamazaki is a person who does not want to take on important responsibilities. His ideas are too advanced. He originally wanted to create an order where everyone is equal and everyone is responsible for himself, but he found that he could not escape from the rule of man, so he gave up his responsibility."
Sakata Gintoki curled his lips, "Is this what the teacher said?"
Katsura Kotaro spread his hands and said: "Okay, to be precise, we compromised. We formulated a check and balance plan and then handed over power."
"But I'm afraid he underestimated people's ambition for power. Just because he is not greedy for power does not mean that others are not greedy. There are many people who will do crazy things for the sake of power."
"Well, you two are fools." Sakata Gintoki crossed his arms, "You have water in your head and you actually want to kill old Tokugawa."
Takasugi Shinsuke said: "Only in this way can the order of equality for everyone be sustained."
At this time, the three of them arrived at Kabukicho, and the streets were busier than ever.
Except last year, when everyone was hiding from zombies.
Katsura Kotaro said: "You see, being able to restore this kind of excitement in a short time is the benefit of letting artificial intelligence people manage it, which can maximize people's enthusiasm for work."
"Of course, if it is ruled by men, it may be okay, but it may become worse, just like the aristocracy in Europe before."
"So, someone needs to stand up and run for this order where everyone is equal."
Sakata Gintoki looked at the busy street and couldn't help but sigh, and he compromised and agreed, "Then, I have another question, what will happen after old Tokugawa dies? Has the teacher said anything?"
Takasugi Shinsuke said: "There is no leader, and we have entered the Warring States Period."
Sakata Gintoki was startled, "What? A lot of people will die?"
Gui Xiaotaro said: "No, the competition now is personal force, one person can defeat a thousand troops."
"At that time, each camp must rely on artificial intelligence humans to manage the camp, because the efficiency of human governance is relatively low and is not suitable for rule during war."
"This battle will continue for a long time until someone is able to overwhelm all the camps and reunite them."
"In this way, people will have time to make using artificial intelligence a habit, and it will be difficult to change."
Sakata Gintoki frowned, "The strength of that guy Yamazaki cannot be underestimated. If he intervenes, will the situation become what it is now? Then your efforts will be in vain."
Katsura Kotaro frowned and said, "It's hard to say what Yamazaki's thoughts are. My guess is that as long as there is no large-scale war, he will not intervene."
Takasugi Shinsuke sneered: "It doesn't matter if you interfere, the era of mutants has passed."
Katsura Kotaro shook his head, "Don't underestimate them, don't forget, mutants also understand mental power. The overnight changes in Europe were certainly Yamazaki's plan, but Arima Kisho and Takatsuki Izumi also played a major role. "
"Besides, we have never seen the true strength of Yamazaki and Shandai."
At this time, the three of them walked outside the Denshi Tavern.
You don't need to go in to know from the noisy sound that it is now in full swing.
Sakata Gintoki smirked with a pun, "Stop talking, I'll buy you a drink as a farewell."
"Don't worry, even if I die and turn into a ghost, I will still come to you."
"I will never forget you."
"Go away, I don't know you in that state."
