Azhu was waiting restlessly in the room.

It was only about 10 minutes since Ogata left the room, but Tsuki felt as if an hour had passed.

Finally - while she was waiting patiently, the door to the room was opened.

She quickly turned around and saw that Ogata and Omachi were following the opened door, returning to the room and sitting in front of her.

Ogata and Azuki looked at each other.

Under Ashu's expectant eyes, Ogata slowly said:

"If you can follow my wife and I without any complaints, then come with us."

Ogata's words were very brief.

But such short words made Ashu stunned for a while.

After a long while, she finally came back to her senses.

"No, no, no problem!"

Because of his excitement, Azhu stuttered when he spoke.

While she was stammering, she once again stood down towards Ogata in the tiger-crouching position.

"Master Ittousai, I promise that no matter where you go, I will follow you carefully and never complain at all! At the same time, I will never cause you any trouble!"

Ogata nodded slightly and then stood up.

"The room my wife and I share can accommodate three people. It's a bit crowded. I'm going to get a single room for you now. You can sleep there tonight. We'll set off tomorrow morning."

"As for where we are going from now on, I will tell you after we set off tomorrow."

Hearing that Ogata was going to open a new house for her, Azuki looked flattered at first, but then as if he had thought of something, he paused and said hesitantly:

"Um... Lord Ittosai, thank you for your kindness... But I don't have much money now... I can just find a random place outside where no one has passed and spend the night..."

"You don't need to pay for the hotel money. I'll help you pay for it." Ogata said with a smile, "You must be exhausted physically and mentally after drifting on the boat for so many days. Let's sleep on the soft tatami tonight.

Just have a good sleep. When we set off tomorrow, there won’t be many opportunities for anyone to sit on the tatami."

After learning that she didn't need to pay for the hotel stay, all kinds of emotions rushed onto Azhu's cheeks and eyes. In the end, Azhu condensed all her emotions into one action.

This movement is the tiger-crouching earth seat.

I don't know if he used this action too frequently today, but Azhu is now getting more and more skilled in using Izuku.

Azhu: QAQ "No, thank you very much! I...I haven't slept on the tatami for a long time..."

"Okay, get up quickly." Ogata said helplessly, "It will bother me a lot if you do it to me. I'm not used to seeing someone do it to me. You and Uchiko will wait slowly in the room first.

Come on, I'll go to the counter to open a new room for you and I'll be back soon."

Ogata turned towards the door and was about to leave the room——

"Ah, Lord Ittosai!",

Azuki shouted at this time and stopped Ogata.

"Before I go to open a new house, can I ask you one more question?"

Before Ogata could respond, Azuki immediately asked her question:

"Master Ittousai, I want to know how you managed to develop your luck to this level within a few days? It's really unbelievable! How did you achieve such an explosive level of luck within a few days?

The power can be freely superimposed on the weapon? I have been practicing for nearly 10 years and have not yet reached this level!"

"Have you ever had luck before?"

"Or have you discovered some quick secret?"

Listening to the question that Azuki asked quickly, Ogata sighed silently in his heart.

——What is supposed to come will always come...

Ogata knew it - Ashuku, who had witnessed him using his luck to kill enemies in chainmail like chopping melons and vegetables, would never fail to ask him why he could use his luck to kill enemies in just a few days.

Practice to this extent.

"Actually, the reason is very simple."

Ogata turned his head and looked at Azuki with a serious face.

Ogata, who looked serious at this time, also made Azuki nervous and sit upright.

"I am a genius who knows everything about martial arts."

"It is because of my intelligence that I, Ogata Issei, have reached what I am today and achieved what I am today."

Ogata said this seriously.

…

…

——Finally sent this child away...

Within Ogata's field of vision, there was no trace of Azuki.

"What an energetic child..." Ogata sighed softly.

She had just carried her luggage and headed to the new house Ogata opened for her.

The new house Ogata opened for him was not far from Ogata's room, just next door on the left.

By now, Ashu is probably rolling on the soft tatami floor.

I have to say - the names of Executioner Ittosai, Shura, and Human Cutting Isshi are really useful.

If someone else said that he was a martial arts prodigy, it would make sense, and others might just think he was bragging.

But for Ogata, who has experienced hundreds of battles and fought countless bloody battles that others thought he had no chance of winning, this kind of statement is very credible.

When Ogata first learned the Shiranui-ryu ninjutsu from Atachi, he relied on the excuse that "he was a martial arts prodigy" to fool Atachi.

Should we say that history has symmetry? Unexpectedly, about a year later, Ogon would use the same rhetoric to fool another kunoichi.

Under the deception of Ogao Yanchun, Azhu was finally fooled so that Azhu would not continue to delve into this issue.

Of course - Ogata doesn't know whether Azuki really believes Ogata's rhetoric.

But Ogata doesn't care, as long as the child doesn't bother him with this problem anymore.

Ogata had suspicions: The reason why the child insisted on asking Ogata to "take in" her was because the child felt that he and Iga were having an affair.

After all, in a few days, it was really incredible to reach a state that she had not reached in nearly 10 years.

This child suspected that Ogata had had an affair with Iga before and had learned luck a long time ago, so he planned to lurk around Ogata to see if he could get some clues about Iga. This was understandable.

But anyway - the purpose of Ogata's request to Azuki to "take in" her is simply that by staying with Ogata, she can increase the chance of meeting the remnants of Iga, or for some other purpose, Ogata doesn't care.

care.

His purpose of using Ashu as bait to lure out the unknown force that was looking for him would not change no matter what.

The relationship between them and Azhu is, to put it harshly, they just use each other.

But there is nothing wrong with such a relationship, everyone just gets what they need.

Ogata just hopes that what Ashuku told him is true, and that there are really remnants of Iga who are looking for him everywhere. Ogata doesn't want to take Ashuku with him and have his work in vain.

"Yes." Amachi echoed Ogata's emotion, "He is indeed a very energetic child."

After finishing speaking, A-Machi took the cloth bag next to him where he kept his clothes.

"I'm going to the bathhouse to take a bath. Do you want to come with me?"

"It's still early and there may still be a lot of people." Ogata replied without hesitation, "I'll go later when it's later and when there are fewer people."

Now that there are no human skin masks, going to the bathhouse to take a bath has become a lot more troublesome.

After all, after entering the bathhouse, Ogata could no longer cover his face with a hat, scarf, etc.

Amachi also knew that it was inconvenient for Ogata to go in and out of a place like the bathhouse right now, so he said, "I'll take a shower first," and then started to pack the clothes he would need to change later.

"You can go to Azuki and ask her if she wants to take a bath with you now." Ogata suggested, "After tomorrow, we will travel together. You can take this opportunity to get familiar with each other."

Ating nodded: "Okay."

"Speaking of which - I really didn't expect you to agree so readily to let Ashu go with us..." Ogata raised his hand and scratched his hair.

"Huh? Why do you say that? I agree that it is strange for Azhu to go with us?"

"Because...Azhu is a young and not ugly girl after all."

Although Ogata spoke very cryptically, Amachi instantly understood what Ogata meant.

"I'm not so narrow-minded that I won't even allow you to have another female companion by your side." Amachi said angrily, "Didn't you have a very good relationship with Miss Guasheng before? Have you ever seen me say anything because of this?"

When we were operating together with Ashley, Aizan and the others in Ezo, did I say anything because of Ashley?"

"Ah, that's right..." Ogata nodded seriously.

Ogata didn't notice at this time - there was an intriguing smile flashing in Amachi's eyes.

Atachi actually deceived Ogata just now.
