Gintama 556

And now for the Taco Bell to Kewl's Hardees.



Also I have a plurk now, so feel free to friend me there and stuff.

Umibozu: No one else....

Is allowed to kill him –Kamui.

(Side text- The Anime airs every Wednesday evening at 6pm on TV Tokyo and it's affilates!! Volume 60 of the manga is in stores everywhere!!)

Utsuro: So, in brief Umibozu-dono...

That son of yours is still quite alive, is he not?

Umibozu: Quit the dummy act.

You've known for a while haven't you?

(Side text- Strength VS Treachery!!)

002

003

Umibozu: There's no way he was killed by something like that.

We're still at the part of the hunt...

Where the prey is sniffing the bait and taking small nibbles.

Though if I were to continue to get interrupted unnecessarily, then reading my prey's moves becomes difficult.

If even after that you intend to stand between my hunt and my prey..

Better bring your A game, or...

Prepare to get hunted by I, Umibozu.

004

Umibozu: I say that but...

The guy behind me seems to have already planned for something like that.

Utsuro: Oboro, stand back.

Would you have our organization erased from the annals of the universe because you grow impatient?

He is not an ally...

Or an enemy.
Just a hunter who would even place his son standing before his eyes...

In his cross hairs.

GINTAMA

Lesson 556: That which is worthless.

SORACHI HIDEAKI

(Side text- The Kihetai aims for space...)

(Sfx- Gogogoggo rmmmmble)

Matako: 'Tha hell is yer deal?!

(Sfx- Baan thud)

Matako: Henpeita-senpai...

We decided that even if things were really lookin' bad, that we'd never accept help from the likes of them!!

Kagura: I want more.

(Sfx- Muga mogo chew chew)

Henpeita: Yes, yes. There's no need to rush. No one is going to take any of your food. Chew your food more thoroughly, and eat your veggies.

Matako: THE HELL YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT!? DO YOU EVEN UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE FEEDING, MOAI MOMMA?!

And what's worse, ya had to let that little brat be the one that got on board?! Do somethin' about your lolita fetish, for God's sake!

006

Henpeita: I am not a lolicon, but a feminist.

These hands are ones who caress and uplift young girls, not defile them.

Matako: If you're trying to sound like a pedo, you're doing a great job! You're freaking me the hell out senpai!!

And in what way is that thing over there an innocent little girl?!

(Sfx- Zugogogogo Rmmmmble)

Matako: Just knock it off, dammit! Did you come here to eat us out of ship and home?!

You do realize you're in enemy territory and not an all you can eat buffet right?

(Sfx- Gefussu belch)

Kagura: Even if I do not do anything, you all will fall apart, yes?

If it is your intention to come back from this, then bring everything you have and make a bet on my stomach.

There is no mistaking what will happen if you lave it to me.

I will destroy everything...

The Harusame...

And my stupid father and brother.

007

Henpeita: That is not a boast that should be made in jest.

Your reason for accompanying us....

Is to stop Umibozu and Kamui-dono from fighting, no?

That is precisely why you came alone...

As a dutiful daughter and younger sister...

You want to...

Protect them as a member of their family.

(Sfx- Geho ghoho hack wheeze)

Utsuro: It would appear that you are approaching your limits.

008

Utsuro: No matter how much immortal blood you obtain...

A human body is just not meant to under go constant strain.

All of the deaths that body has endured....

have been long carved into that body.

Oboro: Regardless...

It is thanks to this blood that this body which should have perished long ago still lives.

Until this body rots away completely...

I swear upon my blood oath that I will serve you to my utmost ability.

Utsuro: Even if that blood oath was sworn with not me but someone else?

Oboro: Utsuro-sama, the enemy still lives.

It wouldn't be a stretch to consider the operation to search and destroy the Seventh Division a success,

But there is no confirmation that Takasugi, Kamui, their men and upper management have been killed.

009

Oboro: During the course of the operation, we identified a small craft in the vicinity that acted suspiciously.

Furthermore,

Several units with unknown affiliations sipped into our battle...

And infiltrated enemy forces while continuing their suspicious behavior.

Their military force was nothing short of incredible, and before long they had slipped into our perimeter, and into the dust kicked up by our battles.

I theorize that one of them is a Yato with many years of combat experience.

And while the leading unit appeared to be that of a Harusame unit, some later reports insinuate that they were actually manned by Earthlings.

Utsuro: So then, you mean to tell me that a third interloper got involved....

And due to this, Takasugi and his henchmen were saved in secret?

010

Oboro: The possibly exists...

That if this is all truth that we have a traitor in Harusame that is guiding them.

And that more likely than not,

It is the person you suspect it is.

???: Where am I...

011

{Shinsuke...!!}

{What happened to the Kiheitai?!}

{Where the heck am I?!}

012

Sakamoto: 'Sup brah, You up?

Bansai: You're members of the Kiheitai?!

Sakamoto: Sorry man....

Despite my greatest efforts....these were the only guys I could ave.

But ain't no need to worry....

Your boss Takasugi...

013

Sakamoto: Is a buddy of ours...

Which means we're gonna bust our tails tryin' to save him.

014

{Sa..}

{Sakamoto Tatsuma!!}

{Ridiculous....why is this man here...!?}

Katsura: A friend?

You're probably the only one who still thinks of him in that manner, Sakamoto.

Rejoice, as that man went out of his way from the other side of the galaxy to rescue you.

And now your lamentation...

As I have come –a man who has crossed from the other side of the galaxy to slay you.
015

{Katsura Kotaro!!}

Sakamoto: If it ain't Zura. Still pickin' fights with Takasugi over meaningless stuff?

Katsura: Not Zura, but Katsura. A penny pinching merchant like yourself wouldn't understand..

That meaningless “bushido” is what we're fighting for and risking our lives over.

Sakamoto: That so?

Now you've got me wonderin' what kind of hairbrained thing that bastard is fighting for.

016

Henpeita: Do you understand...

Why you were allowed to board our ship?

Because then your friends will have no choice but...

To heed our commands if you are our hostage.

Matako: Takechi-senpai!

Henpeita: You may have endavored to keep your friends from getting involved in your domestic affairs..

But you realize as a member of the Kiheitai, I will dabble in even underhanded schemes, and any means of fighting I can in order to claim victory in this war.

Kagura: There is no need to worry.

Even without doing something as unnecessary as this...

And even if I had not acted on my own...

Those guys...

GINTAMA LESSON 556...............END.

017

Kagura: Would have come anyway.

For sure...

To protect my family...
That's why I must go too..

To protect my...

Other family.
