"Brother." The man who called himself Emon slowly walked into the shade of the tree where Heijuro was, and then smiled and said, "Before I talk about this in detail, can you tell me your name first?"
"...My name is Heijuro."
Heijuro saw that these uninvited guests did not draw their swords, so he gradually relaxed, and his body and voice no longer trembled.
"Heijuro." Weimon said softly in his unhurried voice, "Yes, that's it. Don't feel scared or nervous."
"We are friends, companions, not enemies."
"You just said...'join you'..." Heijuro asked cautiously, "What does this mean?"
"That's the literal meaning." Weimon said, "Heijuro, do you want to regain your freedom and leave this useless island?"
"Of course I have!" Heijuro said without hesitation, "I never dream of leaving this hellish place!"
"That's right." Weimen nodded.
"It's not just you who thinks so. Me and everyone."
As Emon said this, he spread his hands towards the other prisoners standing behind him.
"Everyone wants to get out of here and be free."
"However - if we want to regain our freedom, our only choice is: to obey and do what the government says."
"Go and drag away three 'cannibals', or dig out an important piece of information related to the 'cannibals'. You will be eligible for pardon."
"Without the government's pardon, even if we fled to the mainland, we would still be wanted by the government."
"Although we still don't know what the 'Man-Eater' is, since it involves killing, having partners to help us will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."
"With our companions, we can kill the 'man-eater' more easily and drag the body of the 'cannibal' to the coast more easily."
"If you're alone, it doesn't matter whether you can kill that 'man-eater'. Just dragging its body to the coast will probably make you choke."
"We people are united just to be able to obtain pardon qualifications quickly and in a better and safer manner."
"And by staying together as a team, we can effectively prevent attacks by other prisoners."
Having said this, Weimen's brows wrinkled slightly and his expression became slightly serious.
"There are all kinds of prisoners on this island now."
"There are bandits, there are robbers, there are arsonists, there are thieves..."
"At the same time, there are also powerful murderers."
"Most of the prisoners who landed on the island are people like me who are not good at fighting."
"So people like us who are not good at fighting should stick together to prevent love from other prisoners."
Heiichiro listened quietly to Emon's speech.
Weimon's tone of voice was cadenced and soft. He sounded particularly friendly.
And what he said is very reasonable.
Heiichiro was already moved by what Emon said just now.
"But, but..." However, Heiichiro still raised his question? "Although the government said that they would give us the qualifications for pardon, but... will they really keep their promise?"
"We can only choose to trust the government first." Weimen said solemnly, "In our current situation, besides trusting the government? There is no other choice."
"At this stage, we should first work hard to fulfill the government's requirements."
"We can only leave the rest for later."
"...I understand." After a moment of silence, Heijuro nodded slightly, "Okay...then I'll join you! What happens next? Please give me your advice!"
"Welcome to join! Heijuro!" Weimon said with his signature soft smile on his face and open his arms. "On behalf of the rest of my companions, I welcome you to join!"

That night——
Just as Ogata, Omachi and the others had guessed - the rain today showed no sign of stopping until the evening.
"It looks like we are really going to spend the night in this cave..." After looking at the rain curtain outside the cave, Ogata turned his head and said to A-Machi, "A-Machi, you go to sleep first. I'll watch the first half of the night.
You come and watch the rest of the night."
"good!"
Omachi didn't make any excuses. He brought a stone of moderate height and used it as a pillow and the cold rocky ground as a bed.
Ogata looked at Omachi who was lying on his side on the ground.
Atachi now has his back to Ogata.
Therefore, her smooth back and shoulders were clearly visible to Ogata.
Looking at Atachi who was wearing such cool clothes, Ogata couldn't help but ask:
"Is it okay for you to dress like this? Don't you feel cold?"
"This is the uniform of our kunoichi in Shiranui." Amachi replied. "I have long been used to this feeling of coolness on my back and shoulders. Although it is indeed a bit cold tonight..."
"Of course it's cold." Ogata said helplessly, "The place we live in now is a cool cave. It's still raining outside. It's strange that it doesn't feel cold."
Having said that, Ogata took off the light green haori he was wearing, walked slowly to Amachi's side, and gently covered him.
"...Thank you." As Machchi thanked her, she tightened Ogata's haori that covered her body.
"I'll lend you this Yuori for now," Ogata said softly, "If you still feel cold, there's nothing I can do. After all, if I take off my clothes again, I'll be naked."
"Thank you." Amachi thanked him again.
She opened her originally closed eyes and glanced down at the light green feathered fabric on her body.
An inexplicable smile appeared on A-Machi's face.
"This Yuzhi is very warm..."
…
…
at the same time--
On the coast across the sea from Butterfly Island——
Daomori, wearing a bamboo hat and raincoat, stood on the coast with his guards and subordinates.
In the sea in front of them, two small boats... no, it should be a small boat dragging another small boat, slowly approaching the coast despite the wind and rain.
Among all the boats that were responsible for transporting the prisoners to the island today, one boat was missing.
After learning the news, Daomori, who had an ominous premonition, immediately sent out a large number of search teams to find traces of the missing boat.
And just now, a messenger finally informed him that the missing boat had been found. The soldiers who found the missing boat were towing the missing boat.
After learning the news, Inamori immediately led his guards and subordinates to the coast to see with his own eyes what happened to the missing boat and why it did not return on time.
Despite the obstacles of wind and rain, which made the movement of the boats very difficult, the two boats finally reached the shore smoothly.
After the two small boats docked, Daomori immediately rushed forward and looked at the small boat that had just been found.
As soon as his eyes fell on this small boat, Daomori's face instantly turned pale.
In this small boat, lay the bodies of 18 soldiers.
Tell the truth after dreaming
【The story behind the work】
Today, let me tell you how the character "Amachi" came about.
I left a message like this in a previous chapter review: "Mai Shiranui is my first love!"
This sentence is not a lie.
When I first learned about this role, I was still in elementary school.
[Can you imagine the visual and psychological impact that a sexy character like Mai Shiranui brought to me when I was an elementary school student at the time? 】
The reason why I like works about swords and halberds may also be related to my first love when I was a child.
After I decided to create this book, I secretly made up my mind: I must put a sufficiently lustful kunoichi into this work!
So A-Machi came into being.
The birth of Omachi is probably out of my feelings. If I don't design a kunoichi, something will always feel wrong.
Although A-Machi dresses very colorfully, this is just a character design. Please don’t doubt A-Machi’s “purity”. As a fighting ninja, A-Machi has indeed never experienced the pain of breaking a melon...
