Mutsu: It's beginning.
Mutsu: "Red hair"...
Mutsu: "About 16 or 17 years old"...

2
Mutsu: Ichimura Tetsunosuke. We've found our target.

Text: [Target]

3
Men: Bring more!
Men: Hurry up!
Men: First unit is moving out!
Hijikata: ......
Hijikata: So you've come back to life?
Hijikata: I'd love to know how you pulled that, pretty boy.
Itou: Aha... fufufu, you've regained your cool, handsome man~

4
Hijikata: ...Heh.
Hijikata: I see.

5
Hijikata: Nice trick.
Hijikata: I'll get right to the point.
Hijikata: What do you want?
Itou: First of all...
Itou: First of all, I'd like Kondou-kyokuchou to be beheaded in apology for betraying me.
Itou: And then I'd like that idiot's head to be given to me to do with as I please.
Itou: One life in exchange for sparing the rest of your men? I don't think my conditions are too harsh.

6
Itou: Secondly,
Itou: I want one hundred of your most skilled men for my Goryoueji.
Itou: They'll really help out when I overthrow the shogunate~ *heart*
Itou: Oh, and after that they can return to their fields or their mountains or whatever.
Itou: And thirdly,
Itou: I want you to be my pet.
Itou: When they see you kneel at my feet as my servant,
Itou: The Shinsengumi's pride will be in ruins.

7
Itou: I do hope you'll think of your friends...
Itou: When you make your descision...?
Guy with bandaged eye: Kondou-kyokuchou...?
Kondou: Hmm?
Guy with bandaged eye: Those guys out there... were they all ordered by Itou?
Guy with bandaged eye: But why would he...
Kondou: Who knows? I don't have the slightest idea!
Kondou: Whatever the reason, I'm leaving it all to Toshi.
Kondou: You don't have to worry, you're safe in here.
Guy with bandaged eye: B... but...
Guy with bandaged eye: Are you sure, Kyokuchou?
Guy with bandaged eye: Maybe he was trying to force some kind of deal...

8
Kondou: What do you think your Fukuchou would say...
Kondou: If he was asked to sell the Shinsengumi...?
Hijikata: [word bubble is completely empty]
Itou: ....What...
Itou: Did you say...?

9
Hijikata: I said that won't be enough.
Hijikata: Did you think you could crush the Shinsengumi with two or three hundred hired thugs?
Hijikata and Kondou: Every man in the Shinsengumi has pledged his fidelity and his life.
Hijikata and Kondou: You think something like that can be given away like a prize?

10
Kondou and Hijikata: I believe in them.
Kondou and Hijikata: Until their Kyokuchou says "job well done"...
Kondou and Hijikata: They won't die no matter how many times you try to kill them!

11
Thugs: Kill those Mibu Wolves!!
Shinsengumi: AHHHHHH!!
Thug: Ahh!!

12
Another Thug: Shit!!
Shinsengumi Guy: How many are there!? I keep cutting and cutting but they won't stop!!
Shinsengumi Guy: Gaah!!
Shinsengumi Guy: Where is Saitou-sensei!? Sensei isn't here!?
Shinsengumi: !?
Shinsengumi: What!?

13
Thug: Gyaa!!
Thug: Wah!

14
SHinsengumi Guy: I...
Shinsengumi Guy: Ichimura!!?
Thugs: Uwaah!
Thugs: Gyaaaahhh!!

15
Shinsengumi Guy: A... amazing, Ichimura...!
Shinsengumi Guy: Just look!
SHinsengumi Guy: He hit every one of them in a vital spot!
Shinsengumi Guy: Is this what Nagakura-sensei was talking about...?
Shinsengumi Guy: ...!

16
Tetsu and Shinsengumi: You think we'll lose that easy!?
Tetsu and Shinsengumi: It doesn't matter how many of you there are if you're all weak!
Tetsu and Shinsengumi: Who wants to mess with the Shinsengumi now!!?
Thugs: Uwaaah...
Thug: It hurts...
Tetsu: Okay...
Tetsu: Who's next?

17
Tetsu: ......

18
no text
(Note: If you don't have the book to look at, this is a cool scene where all of Ryouma's followers are behind poor Tetsu, whose shorts are falling off... it's hot... yeah, go buy the book, lol.)

19
Mutsu: You, the red-haired boy.
Mutsu: Are you... Ichimura Tetsunosuke?
Tetsu: .....
Mutsu: We're the Kaientai.
(Note: Ryouma created the first modern corporation in Japan, the Kameyama Shachu or Kaientai, which was a shipping company and naval force. Ryouma was far-sighted enough to ensure that the Kaientai would work with foreigners to make sure Japan would have a say in international shipping laws. RYOUMA WAS COOL.)
Mutsu: We are not affiliated with those rounin, and we have no desire to join in this bloodshed.
Mutsu: Please do not interfere or resist.
Mutsu: We have only one objective...

20
Mutsu: To completely destroy you.
Shaved Head Guy: It's become too quiet outside...
Souji: It's someone strong.
Shaved Head Guy: Huh?
Souji: Someone strong...
Souji: Has come.
Souji: [Tetsu-kun...]

21
no text, just lots of dudes trying to kill Tetsu.

22
Tetsu: Ah!
Kaientai Guy: DIE!!

23
no text, just Tetsu narrowly escaping death.

24
Tetsu: *huff*
Tetsu: *huff*
Mutsu: ......
That Cute Shinsengumi Guy from A Few Pages Ago: I...
Cute Shisnengumi: Ichimura...!
Bearded Shinsengumi: Fuck! Where did they come from!?
Bearded Shinsengumi: Hamaguchi!
Hamaguchi: Yes, sir!
Tetsu: [What should I do...!?]
Tetsu: [They won't even listen to me!!]

25
Tetsu: [This has to be some kind of mistake...]
Tetsu: [These guys are strong - it's taking all I've got just to dodge them!!]
Bearded Kaientai: !!
Miyata: AHHHHHH!!
Tetsu: Miyata-san!?
Miyata: Ichimura! It's no use trying to reason with them!!
Miyata: Quickly, run to the back where the Fukuchou is!!
Miyata: GO!! Me and Hamaguchi will hold them...

26
(note: Miyata gets shot in the head)
Tetsu: You bastards...
Tetsu: I thought you only wanted to kill me!?
Tetsu: Don't hurt anyone else!!

27
Tetsu: Your target is me, and only me!
Tetsu: I don't know why you want to kill me, but I don't intend to die!!
Mutsu: Very well.
Mutsu: We have our reason, but we want to ask yours.
Mutsu: We're sure that you will recognise our legitimate claim.
Mutsu: And if you choose not to answer, we'll reply by filling you with lead...
Mutsu: Why did you kill him?

28
Mutsu: The man you killed...
Mutsu: Was the treasure of Japan...!!
Tetsu: [The man I killed...?]

29
no text, just Suzu looking creepy with Saitou and the catboy jailbait.
