Side: a long time ago

On the seventh day I came to the island it was raining. There is no rainy season in the Kuyuan Islands, but it still rains.

Tomorrow I plan to leave for Ogi. I decided to move freely on this day. Exactly. I put on the guide.

"I guess the ship should still be bigger. Kurumi is a good ship, but it seems difficult to get here."

"Well, that's right. That ship is a ship with offshore use in mind."

I've been discussing the route home with Elle and Sage since morning. As far as the route is concerned, we will either head directly from the Kuyuan Islands to Ozhang, or we will pass through the Izu Islands in the same way we go. In time, it's faster to go home at a straight distance, right?

However, in that seat, Mr. Sage remarked that it was difficult to sail offshore on a long-distance ship. Looks like everyone in the Sage Navy noticed on the voyage when they came. Especially since Mr. George was aboard the Galeon ship when he visited the Hojo family. Kuyuan Ships and the Japanese-Conflict Ships they call are originally recommended for offshore use.

To be clear, it is not a ship that envisages an outer voyage. The size of the ship is different. I'm not free if I run into a storm. I taught you that beforehand. I came prepared to sink the ship if you can't.

Like Kanto from Ozhang, there would be no problem if there was a place where we could go back to land if we cared about that. If the sea gets rough, it's common sense for sailors to enter the harbor. It's just not possible on an outer voyage.

As for Mr. George, he also wanted to work carrying luggage from the Kuyuan Islands, but as it stands, I can't recommend it.

"Maybe we should think about building a big ship when we get back to Ozhang. Fortunately, the Krabby River facility is considering the construction of a large ship. However, the drawback of large ships is that fewer ports can enter and land. It's fine if you just go back and forth between the Krabby River and the Kuyuan Islands, but it's difficult in other ports."

Elle seems to think it's time to think about building a big ship at the Oda family. The problem is securing the timber to be used for harbors, dragonbones, etc. The harbour can only be bordered by Nanban ships like Hakata and Sakami.

I guess there is nothing Japanese can't buy about wood, but there are also problems with the number of ship carpenters and manufacturing capacity. Should we also consider building a ship and selling it or lending it to the Oda family?

After that, the rain also stopped, so I took part in the events on the island. I have a boat that won't be back for about a year, so I hope it's safe.

Nobunaga and the others voluntarily participated in this.

Events are simple, we head to the sea and we all pray. It feels like it's already sinking, but I've decided to give it three years to admit it's dead.

It could be a shoreline somewhere, or it could be drifting to a deserted island or something. It is an event that I hope will live more than fail to confirm my death.

However, this is the cruellest thing for a sailor's family, isn't it? In fact, because living on a deserted island is also a historical fact, there are times when I can't accept that I'm dead.

As the sound of the waves pulling in and out echoes, I pray to Ole and Elle that the elders of the island and Nobunaga live quietly in the sea and beyond.

"A lot of women, but not returning a ship is one of the causes?

"Yeah, that's right. Because sailors are men."

When she finished praying, Nobunaga looked over at the members of the island and apparently realized why there were so many women.

"Epidemic diseases weren't originally on the island either. The epidemic was endemic on the island when the ship came back. From there, I figured out how to deal with epidemics."

Events are over. On the way back to the mansion, Pamela began explaining epidemic diseases to Nobunaga and the others as she relaxed and walked. They're going to give you a clear reason for the quarantine on the island or something.

Well, he seems to understand quite a bit because he explained that the generation of parents and boys his age who responded to the plague had died because of the lack of generations of Elles' parents and the fact that I have many wives.

"Hmm. Was I? So what about the boy's prayers? How effective is that?

"We don't know that. There are no boys on the island. Besides, there are different gods and teachings outside of the Japanese book. There are so many gods in the world."

There is a part of me that suspects that Nobunaga doesn't really believe in superstition or anything like that. I guess it's Mr. Sawahiko's education. That guy also believes in the Buddha, but as much as I said before that the majority of superstitions and Buddha punishments that your boy talks about are lies.

He is also a tough person for people who use Buddha because he is serious.

I asked Pamela about prayer just to say so, but Pamela avoided making a clear statement.

If you deny the divine Buddha in this day and age, it will be a hassle. And the troublesome thing is that sometimes it really works when you truly believe it sincerely, like the placebo effect. That said, I talk about religions and beliefs in the world and implicitly indicate that there is no way to teach people.

Nobunaga. You've come to question the temple completely about the Honshoji Temple. It's just, well, people in this day and age aren't stupid either. Someone quite clever feels that the boy is frigid.

Still, you just can't resist because you have the knowledge and the force and the financial power. The trouble is that there are a certain number of people who are paranoid. This isn't going to change in the original world.

"Will the elderly not be left home either?

"He said some people used to leave home. However, there are no samurai in the Kuyuan Islands, so you don't have the habit of leaving home when you get older. I do not forbid it until my personal faith, and if I do not impose or recommend it to others, it is my personal freedom to do so."

Others' mouth gets heavier when Nobunaga says it negatively to the temple, but it was Shiqing who rarely pinched his mouth here.

"I hear that even in Nihonboto, Shiyama and Honshoji fought. Because in the far west, people like Elles are killed or banished because they are different from God's teachings. We have decided not to rely on God Buddha."

Speaking of which, do many samurai of this age leave home when they get older? Whatever you want, but that's not a very good idea to stay the norm. Well, a lot of samurai didn't leave home, from big names to junior samurai.

And on the last night, a feast was held in which everyone on the island gathered to hope for a safe return. It was just about a week's stay, but I think everyone who was confused at first was quite familiar with it.

Some are sparing their goodbyes and sighing at the spiciness of the ship back home. Because seasickness is hell. I can't get off the ship.

"Yeah. I met this old cat!

"Well, well."

"It was such a big deal!

The city is kind of excited to teach Nobunaga what happened today. But was there a big cat on the island? Although there is noise when it is bigger than Robo and Branca.

You picked up a bunch of beautiful seashells for your souvenir. That's all. That's why I'm going to give you the clothes the city is wearing. Oh, I wonder if we'll get into a fight if we don't prepare it for the other sisters' kids.

"It's time for me to be old too. You should think about hiding."

"No, you can't. Dear Sun Sanro,"

Yeah, it was Shinko who said he obviously didn't want to go home. I really want to hide on the island like this.

This is going to be a tough time for the Oda family, so I need you to work for me. Let's stop it right. It won't be stylish.

"Ooh, ho, ho, ho! It's ten years early to beat the wax!

"Oh, my God, you're unbeatable."

Yeah, if you think it's something to hear a high laugh over there, Cindy and Kyung Ching are involved in a drinking comparison with some of the heavy minister's younger brothers.

"Okay, stand by. This box is just a box, sir."

Linmei is showing all of the Sage Navy his tricks. This is also very popular and exciting.

"Yes, my lord. Ahem."

"Pamela. People are watching..."

"It's okay. It's okay."

Meanwhile, I stopped Mr. Shinko while Pamela and Elle pinched me.

Elle naturally gives you a drink, but Pamela is in trouble because she tries to feed her food for some reason.

If you don't eat, I'll swell your cheeks and protest.

Robo and Blanca are obsessed with a treat just now. Starting tomorrow, I'll see you on the boat. I want everyone to eat and drink a lot today or so and enjoy today.
