Chapter 1219: Chapter 695: Fantasy Township of All Nations (Part 2)

The homebody witch restrained her battle intentions and tried to persuade the Sword Master, who had been identified as a good person by the Eye of Judgment, to leave.

She felt that the other party was not the kind of fool who would jump out to serve as a gun at the slightest provocation, and had no reason to be her enemy.

Across from her, Yagyū Jubei nodded upon hearing this issue.

“Yes, I naturally understand the intentions of the Chinese Clan Patriarchs and know that you are indeed a true hero, wholeheartedly for the people.”

The Sword Master looked at the Cold-blooded Swordsman opposite, somewhat admiringly, but then shifted the conversation.

“Therefore, forgive my rudeness today, you must stop advancing no matter what.”

She showed a determined but unwilling expression.

Dorothy: “????”

Wait, this girl doesn’t look stupid, but why is her thinking so unique?

“You know those Chinese Clans are nothing good, and you know I’m a good person, but now you’re not facing those high and mighty Patriarchs with your sword, instead directing it at me, a good person?”

The homebody witch’s expression turned cold, and she questioned like that.

“Precisely because you are a good person.”

Yagyū Jubei looked conflicted as she replied guiltily.

“A good person deserves to have a sword pointed at them? What kind of nonsense logic is that?”

Dorothy was genuinely a bit angry.

She thought of her as an ally, but now it seems their paths don’t align.

“I haven’t drawn my sword against you, have I?”

The Sword Master said, a bit aggrieved.

Indeed, she had never drawn her sword.

“Moreover, precisely because you are a good person, I can’t bear to see you continue to risk yourself. Resolving violence with violence won’t solve the problem; your blind killing will only ultimately harm others and yourself.”

She tried to explain.

“Do you think you alone can fight against the entire Chinese Clan? Even if they can’t deal with you, they can unleash their anger on the innocent populace. You’re fearless due to your high martial skills, but what about the populace?”

Yagyū Jubei questioned like that.

“Do you wish to indulge in so-called hero games, sacrificing the innocent populace along with you?”

She remained unmoved, blocking Dorothy’s path.

The homebody witch became amusedly irritated.

“Haha, so you’re suggesting I watch those Chinese Clans continue their tyranny, see the populace suffer, and do nothing?”

She asked, laughing coldly.

Yagyū Jubei, hearing these words, suddenly felt weakened.

Though she had her reasons, she couldn’t present a better solution than violence.

“No, I absolutely didn’t mean that, just hoping to calm you, to think thrice before acting, instead of being blindly impulsive…”

“Then tell me a better solution than killing; I’m listening.”

Dorothy was no longer interested in hearing this person’s nonsense and directly pressed her.

“Maybe like purging those threatening the ruler, supporting a new General, reforming from the top down…”

The Sword Master, cornered, reluctantly spoke out her yet-to-be-improved plan.

Upon hearing this, the homebody witch immediately shook her head.

She initially thought Yagyū Jubei, as a renowned Sword Master, would present insightful views, but she unexpectedly spoke such naive words, truly laughable.

“Silence, the Chinese Clans are so reprehensible, yet you still harbor expectations of them, reforming from the top down? Ridiculous, the biggest problem of Japan is those shameless Chinese Clans. As long as they exist, the Japanese populace won’t have good days, yet you expect those Patriarchs to mercifully show kindness?”

Dorothy interrupted Yagyū Jubei’s speech again, genuinely tired of debating with such naïve children.

“Move aside, long pain is worse than short pain; without that realization, don’t obstruct others’ progress.”

She shook her head, ready to pass through the Sword Master’s block and move forward.

Incomprehensive reforms are equivalent to no reforms; the previous demolition plan already proved this, and this time, she won’t hold back.

However, Yagyū Jubei stubbornly continued to block the homebody witch’s path.

“I can’t beat you in verbal debate; as a mere martial arts warrior, I don’t understand big principles. I only know that if you continue, Japan will certainly fall into chaos with bodies laying everywhere; this isn’t short pain. If mishandled, Japan could truly be a nation destroyed, come forth, my adversary; let us debate like samurai.”

She said like that.

Although her fighting spirit was rising, she still showed no intention of drawing the sword, standing empty-handed before the Cold-blooded Swordsman.

The essence of Yagyū Shinkage-ryū lies in “Taking without a Sword,” meaning empty-handedly subduing an enemy with a weapon. Her elders and teachers emphasized repeatedly during sword technique training: Yagyū Shinkage-ryū refines sword technique through “not killing but winning without being killed.”

A Yagyū who doesn’t draw the sword is the strongest Yagyū.

The Sword Master knew the cold swordsman before her seemed cold and intimidating, but was truly a good person, and her sword would never point at a good person, so she prepared to stop the “impulsive” hero using the essence of “Taking without a Sword.”

No matter what, she didn’t want to witness the chaos that Miss Battosai would incite on Japan Island; she would use every means to prevent such chaos.

Clearly, they’re all fellow compatriots, Japanese witches; why must conflicts and battles solve problems, can’t we sit peacefully and talk gradually?

Though the Chinese Clans are indeed detestable, there are also good people among them, like the Kujo Family that the Yagyū clan serves, which never oppresses commoners. Similarly, the Konoe Family’s young lady, the current Guard Bureau chief, is a good person protecting the lower-class people.

Therefore, with these good Chinese Clans coming to power, the situation on Japan Island can improve without experiencing wars.

Not all the Chinese Clans are wrong, just the bad ones; why doesn’t Miss Battosai understand?

She’s clearly blinded by the sense of being a hero, overwhelmed by runaway justice.

Yagyū Jubei pursed her lips tightly, ready to subdue Miss Battosai, and then try harder to persuade her.

To this, Dorothy sighed helplessly.

“Ah, ultimately, your stance decides your mind; Yagyū clan is still part of the Chinese Clan, limiting your reformist perspective and view.”

She sighed, slowly drawing her ultra-long Great Tachi from her back, the blood-red blade looking especially bright under the sunlight.

“Well, do you think it’s important whether there are good or bad people among the Chinese Clans from my perspective?”

She slowly raised the Red Shadow in her hand, without unleashing the power of the Demon Blade, watching the Sword Master with title-level sorceress power opposite her.

Yagyū Jubei pondered, a bit confused.

“Of course it’s important.”

The Sword Master answered seriously, believing that Miss Battosai, a good person, should not point her sword at the good people in the Chinese Clans.

However, Dorothy just shook her head, then calmly swung her sword down.

“No, whether the Chinese Clans are good or bad isn’t important to me; their absence is what matters.”

She said thus.

And that swing was plain; she didn’t use the Dragon’s Breath or any special swordsmanship, simply a most basic downward chop, accompanied by the Sword Intent of One Mind of Dreams.

Just as the Sword Master said earlier, verbal exchanges between samurai are meaningless; sword clashes are the best means of samurai communication, containing all she wished to say in this one strike.

This strike was her ambition, called — the Fantasy Township of All Nations.

….The homebody witch swings her sword…..
