I Want to Fight, I Need to Fight!
The Kabane World.
A place that sounds like it's from a very long time ago.
In reality, it has only been four years since the Star Gate opened.
Under the influence of the World Government, the world has undergone tremendous changes in every aspect.
Since the World Government decided to designate this vast and sparsely populated world as the 'World of Natural Resource Development Cooperation'.
Nine out of ten people in Hinomoto, regardless of age or gender, are engaged in this type of work.
They planted grains and fruit trees, raised poultry and livestock, and went out to sea to fish.
Other activities, such as cutting down and planting trees, and mining, have become the main industries in the world.
Today in Hinomoto, vast farmlands and hardworking farmers can be seen everywhere.
However, the World Government's Agriculture Division later discovered this through an investigation.
The overall terrain of Hinomoto is mainly mountainous and hilly, with a relatively small area of arable plains.
While it's sufficient for now, if we want to continue expanding in the future, we'll have to start developing the continent on the other side.
And population.
The previous 'Kabane Disaster' reduced Hinomoto's population to less than two million.
Therefore, the World Government issued an order to Kongokaku's Shogunate.
It is required to strongly advocate and support the nation in having more children.
For example, a bonus is given for each healthy child born.
They even built officially managed kindergartens to help working parents take care of their children.
As for funding, the World Government can cover half.
Naturally, Ayame Yomogawa would not refuse this request.
This has led to a surge in newborn babies in various Station City Hinomoto within just a few years.
Who doesn't like having children?
The best part is they even give you money to help raise it, why wouldn't you want that?
Therefore, even within the city of Kongokaku, the cries of numerous infants can be heard every night.
It's worth mentioning that Ayame Yomogawa also gave birth Kurusu a child in Kurusu last year.
It was a son, named Yomogawa Takayasu.
The reason he Kurusu was originally a commoner without his own surname; secondly, strictly speaking, he was a son-in-law of the Yomogawa Family.
At this time.
Inside General Kongokaku's mansion.
Ayame Yomogawa sat beside her husband Kurusu, watching the virtual screen projected by the Den Den Mushi (a type of Den Den Mushi).
Not far away, a chubby baby lay in a specially made Cradle, being carefully cared for by two maids.
"Since the World Government has allowed this nation from the Teigu World to join, it might mean that the channel for this has been opened. Perhaps we can try applying as well."
"I'm wearing a dark blue kimono," Kurusu said thoughtfully.
Now, he looked more mature, and had a thick beard.
This is all thanks to the 'Perfect Type I Cell Strengthening Serum'.
Since receiving the injection, his body has become increasingly healthy and strong, and he is now able to use the Sickle Fruit's abilities normally.
This made him the undisputed strongest figure in the Shogunate.
The reason he cannot be called the 'strongest Kabane's is naturally because of the existence of Biba Amatori.
In fact, they were initially quite opposed to using 'Kabane' as the name representing their world.
However, when the World Government rejected the request to change the world's code name, it had no choice but to accept this reality.
Several years passed, and everyone gradually got used to it.
"Joining the World Government? But would the World Government allow us to exist as a nation-state?"
The Ayame Yomogawa hesitated.
Although present- Hinomoto retains the autonomy of the Shogunate, it is essentially no different from a colony of the World Government.
The control they exert over them far exceeds that of the various countries in the Demon Slayer World.
It's only slightly more lenient than Paradis Island in the Giant World.
The reasons for this have already been explained before.
This is because the World Government has made the Kabane World its main food import world.
Since it's something that's going into our bodies, it definitely needs to be subject to stricter controls.
Kurusu said, "Let's give it a try, and see how the World Government treats us."
"OK."
Since having children, perhaps influenced by maternal instincts, Ayame has become increasingly gentle in nature.
They are becoming increasingly compliant with Kurusu's political suggestions.
"We can also try to qualify to form a legion. In the Demon Slayer World, Auxiliary Corps can be formed, and so can our Kabane World."
"Even if there are fewer people, it's fine. I'll personally lead the team, and we're sure to gain more battle merits!"
Kurusu hesitated for a moment before finally expressing his thoughts.
As a skilled Samurai, he was fed up with this life of eating, drinking, relieving himself, and resolving trivial conflicts among the people.
Even with daily high-intensity Swordsmanship training, I can still feel my body and mind being worn down Heavenly One day.
The only time he could vent his frustration was when sparring with his Samurai.
However, those Samurai were far weaker than him, and because of the disparity in their status, they dared not fight seriously.
Now that he has a child of his own, Kurusu feels it's time for him to pursue the way of the Samurai.
But his words startled Ayame Yomogawa.
"What!"
"You're going to participate in the World Government's war?"
"No!"
This Female General, who had just become a mother, suddenly became very determined and revealed her resolute attitude.
"Eh----"
Kurusu sighed deeply, "Ayame, you must understand, I am a Samurai. Samurai need to fight. If I continue to live such a comfortable life, I will become useless."
"But you are not only Samurai, but also my husband and Xiaotai's father!"
Ayame Yomogawa suddenly stood up and glared angrily at Kurusu, who was sitting Kurusu on the tatami mat.
"What will I do if something happens to you? What will happen to Hyotae? He can't even remember what you look like now!"
Kurusu explained, "You know my Swordsmanship level, and my physique is comparable to that of Sea Star Person. In addition, with the power of the Devil Fruit, it's not so easy for me to have any accidents."
"But that's Otherworld war. Even World Government Army General can die a violent death. What makes you think you're absolutely safe?!"
Ayame Yomogawa blushed with anger.
She has always been a perfect wife, not to mention completely obedient to her husband, she is at least gentle and considerate. This is the first time she has ever gotten so angry at Kurusu.
"Ahem, since it's war, there are bound to be risks, but it's the risks that ignite a Samurai's passion."
Kurusu slowly rose, gently wrapped his arms around Ayame's slender waist, looked sincerely at her angry face, and earnestly made his request.
"Life is too painful for me now. I want to fight, I need to fight, and not just me, but many of the Samurai below feel the same way."
Indeed, while most Hinomoto people enjoy their current comfortable lives, there is always a group of combative individuals who crave a more exciting life.
Especially those Samurai groups.
The Kabane World is too safe now. Even if something really happens one day, it won't be their problem to solve; the relevant departments of the World Government will handle it.
"I never imagined that being with me would cause you so much pain?"
Ayame Yomogawa's eyes reddened, tears welled up, and her heart ached as if it were being squeezed tightly.
"Ah?"
"No, I didn't mean being with you is painful, I meant that not fighting is painful!"
Kurusu saw his wife crying, he panicked.
This was the first time he had ever seen Ayame shed tears, and he never expected that she would misunderstand his meaning.
While the young couple was crying and making a fuss, they didn't notice a new change on the virtual screen: a purple light suddenly burst forth on the white snow.
Please don't think that writing about the reactions of people from other worlds is just filler; this kind of content is very important and necessary for this book.
