Chapter 170: Fighting In The Silent Rain
🕑 Added 2025-07-21 03:00:03 +0000 UTC【 Doromizu Pirako stabbed the man with the three-seven split hair in the back to ignite the war and increase persuasion. The latter lost consciousness and fell into the sea, and Doromizu Pirako planned to claim that Gintoki did it. 】
【 Gintoki cursed under his breath, jumped into the sea with the concrete. 】
【 After jumping into the sea and rescuing the man with the three-seven split hair, on the way to Otose's bar, Gintoki directly threw the person onto Shinpachi. 】
【 “I'm sorry... covered in blood!” Shinpachi thought he had bumped into someone. Upon closer inspection, he realized the person was covered in blood, and his expression became flustered: “I'm sorry! Did I cause this? Did I cause this?” 】
【 。。。。。】
~Projection of All Worlds~
“Isn't Shinpachi a bit too kind?! To be able to bump someone into this state just by walking, he should think about whether he has that ability.”
“How did Gintoki manage to rescue someone after falling into the sea with concrete all over him?”
Then, everyone from other worlds looked at Shinpachi speechlessly.
You're really overthinking it! Who has that much ability? To be able to cripple someone just by walking.
。。。。。
【 “Old hag!!” Gintoki shouted anxiously, his face covered in sweat! He ran all the way, the concrete on him falling off along the way. His usually dead-fish eyes showed clear signs of panic for the first time. 】
【 When he ran back to Otose's bar, he only saw the letter Otose had left him. I've had enough of you defaulting on rent. Hurry up and take those two idiots and never come near this city again. 】
【 Gintoki ran through the rain until he reached a graveyard. Gintoki panted heavily, reaching out to cover his abdomen. Due to the prolonged running, there was a clear urge to gag! 】
【 Gintoki scanned the graveyard until he saw Otose, who had fallen in front of a grave, her blood flowing everywhere, and only then did he stop. Only the harsh sound of the rain echoed in his ears. 】
【 “Are you Gintoki?! You're too late. I've sent both the husband and wife away.” Jirochou held a pipe in his hand, leaning against one of the tombstones. 】
【 “This can be considered a strange twist of fate. I heard that Otose was kind to you, so you became her bodyguard to repay her kindness. This job is over, it's none of your business!” 】
【 “Get lost! For Otose's sake, I won't take your life.” 】
【 The answer was a powerful wooden sword, hitting him mercilessly in the face. He didn't stop flying backwards until he had broken several tombstones! 】
【 “That hurts! What are you doing...” Jirochou complained. When he opened his eyes again, he saw Gintoki's bloodshot eyes, as if he had lost his mind, leaping into the air! 】
【 “You're forcing me to draw my sword, you're quite good, little brother~” Jirochou drew the long sword in his hand, blocking the blow, his eyes narrowing slightly, “But! Do you want to waste Otose's painstaking efforts to save you?” 】
【 Gintoki didn't answer. Their swords constantly intertwined in the rain. Then, Jirochou seized the opportunity, and a drawing slash broke Gintoki's wooden sword! 】
【 Gintoki grabbed the broken wooden sword and fiercely stabbed it into Jirochou's shoulder. Then, Jirochou's direct thrust pinned him to the tombstone along with his arm! 】
【 Blood flowed from his arm. Even so, Gintoki's eyes were bloodshot, and he kept struggling. Even Jirochou couldn't help but be surprised: “That Otose, she raised an incredibly fierce dog!” 】
【 “You're called White Yaksha, right? I didn't expect to have such a terrifying junior. Disappear! Little puppy, there's no one here who needs your protection anymore.” 】
【 After Jirochou finished speaking, he punched Gintoki away. After continuously breaking many tombstones, he stopped. 】
【 。。。。。】

“Looking at this performance, is Gintoki really just a bodyguard to Otose? It's clear she raised him like a son.”
“How desperate was this run? He ran until he was out of breath, and now he probably has no stamina left. No wonder he lost here.”
Everyone felt the atmosphere was a bit oppressive at this moment, especially when the rain stopped; it felt like their hearts also stopped. However, what they didn't understand was what kind of cigarette Jirochou was smoking in the rain? Is your pipe waterproof?
And looking at Gintoki's performance, he's clearly angry to the point of losing his mind, only using brute force when swinging his sword! Plus, with his current lack of stamina, it's not unfair that he lost.
After all, how can a beast defeat a human? He's just venting now. The exhausted one isn't trying to win, but to vent the anger in his heart.
But! Whose tombstone is this? Really unlucky, becoming the battlefield for the two, almost completely demolished, this is too pitiful.
~Rurouni Kenshin World~
As the saying goes, amateurs watch the excitement, experts watch the details. Although Kenshin could also feel the anger contained in Gintoki's sword.
But seeing Jirochou's performance, Kenshin couldn't help but sigh,
“What a beautiful drawing slash.”
~Gintama World~
“Gin-chan, are you okay?”
Kagura looked at Gintoki with some worry. Although he was usually unreliable, she remained deeply concerned about Gintoki at crucial moments.
“That old hag should be fine.”
Gintoki was terrifyingly calm at this moment. When he saw Otose lying in a pool of blood, he directly crushed the sofa, almost losing his mind as well.
Shinpachi, who has always had high emotional intelligence, saw the frustration in his heart and didn't say anything to comfort him. He started to change the subject,
“It seems a bit boring to watch the screen with just a few people, Gin-san, why don't we go to Otose's place and watch together!”
On the other side, in the Shinsengumi, Hijikata Toushirou and the others also calmed down, not making fun as they usually did.
“White Yaksha?! Although I knew he wasn't simple, I didn't expect him to have the same identity as Katsura Kotarou, what a big fish!”
Although Sougo said this, his eyes were still on Gintoki on the screen. After all, he is one of his few friends!
Kondou Isao even felt a bit of self-blame, holding his arms and pondering,
“I didn't expect such a terrible thing to happen in the future. Our Shinsengumi is really negligent.”
Hijikata Toushirou silently lit a cigarette and didn't say anything more. They still owed the Yorozuya a debt of gratitude that couldn't be explained!
Although they usually didn't treat the Yorozuya well, who made the Yorozuya family too troublesome, on serious matters, the Shinsengumi would still choose to help the Yorozuya unconditionally.
。。。。。
On the other side, Shogun Shige Shige looked at this scene thoughtfully:
“So Sakata-san was once a Old Jouishishi, the same kind of person as Katsura?!”
Remembering the experience at the Smile bar before, Shige Shige also smiled knowingly. If he wanted to harm me, he would have had the chance long ago! Even if he is truly the White Yaksha, Gintoki is still his friend.
。。。。。
【 Gintoki, lying on the ground, struggled to crawl forward in the heavy rain, recalling the scene when he first met Otose. 】
【 On a snowy day, Gintoki, wearing thin clothes, leaned against a tombstone and asked Otose behind him without looking back, “Hey! Old hag! Is that a steamed bun?! Can I eat it? I'm starving.” 】
【 Although Otose was surprised, her eyes softened, “This belongs to my husband, ask my husband.” 】
【 The next moment, Gintoki started eating the steamed bun in big gulps. Otose also asked him, “What did my husband say?” 】
【 “I don't know, how can a dead person talk?” Gintoki directly made a promise to the tombstone, “I will never forget this kindness. Your old man. Even if he is old and doesn't have much time left. From now on, I will protect her for you!” 】
【 Back to the present, Gintoki, heavily injured and lying on the ground, crawled to Otose's side, his eyes completely dead, his face indistinguishable between rain and tears. 】
【 “Otose...” 】
【 。。。。。】
~Projection of All Worlds~
“How long has Gintoki been sitting in the snow wearing so little? There's a patch of snow on his head?”
“What is Gintoki burdened with? In the snow, he seems to have no desire to live, making a promise to Otose is just giving himself a goal to live for.”
The phrase “I will never forget this kindness,” and then looking at Gintoki's empty eyes lying in the rain, is indeed too heartbreaking.
Perhaps at this moment, Gintoki is both regretful and despairing! He failed to protect Otose, failing to keep his former vow once again.
~Gintama World~
“This moment is so similar to the past!”
Zura put his hands in his pockets, seeming to reminisce. The feeling of losing again must be unbearable... Gintoki!
From the death of Shouyou-sensei, the three of them started to go their separate ways! Takasugi lived in the past, Gintoki lived in the present, and I just looked to the future. In the end, none of us truly let go.
“But looking at Gintoki in the snow, it should not be long after the war ended. How did he become so down and out?”
Zura reached out and put his hand on his chin, starting to try to recall.
I remember after the war ended, he and Sakamoto also took some time to play a basketball game to relax. Thinking about it carefully, Gintoki didn't seem to be there.
