戻らぬもの。
What you can't go back to.

昼間でも寂しい場所だ・・・
It's a lonely place even during the day...

明け方に通る者などまずいない
There won't be people passing by here at dawn.

どんな闘い方で武蔵を殺したとしても
No matter what we do to slay Musashi,

見た者はいない
there will be no one here to see it.

吉岡門下総勢七十余名で武蔵一人を斬る
We will kill Musashi with all 70 of our men at once.

武蔵の死体を世間に晒す
We will show off his corpse to the world.

斬ったのは誰ということにするかな・・・
Who shall we say killed him...

誰でもいいぞ
It doesn't matter who.

Page 03
「御兄弟を相次いで斬られ」
"He slew the brothers in succession."

「奮い立った一人の吉岡衆がついに仇討ちを果たした」と
"So one of the Yoshioka rose and exacted vengeance upon him."

「吉岡道場健在なりー」
"The Yoshioka dojo will be whole..."

世間への新当主植田良平の宣言とする
Then we will tell the world that Ueda Ryohei is the new household head.

ちょっと待ってくれ　我々には剣に生きている自負がある
Wait a minute. We have to uphold our reputation for living by the sword.

たった一人に吉岡総がかりで?
Yet we're supposed to kill one man with the whole of the Yoshioka?

正しいか正しくないか
Whether it is right or not,

Ponder it as much as you like after we have slain him.

昨夜・・・本当に武蔵と話したのかな
Did I... did I really talk to Takezo last night?

夢じゃねえのかな・・・
Could it have been a dream...

Page 07
おめえ本当に・・・でっけえ男になりやがったな
But you really... really did become famous.

とうとうやり遂げたな　武蔵・・・
You finally made it, Takezo...

Page 08
なんで泣いてんだ　俺は!?
Why am I crying? Huh!?

何を泣く!!声なんか出すな!!
Why!! Don't say a thing!!

絶対!
Don't!

そうだ　あのときのことー
Oh yeah, back then...

今こそ謝ろう
I should apologize for that now.

Page 09
今　やっとー
Now, I can finally--

いや
No.

まだ全然
No, I haven't.

やり遂げてなどいるもんか
I haven't made it anywhere yet.

わからんことだらけでよ
There's too much I still don't know.

Page 10
まだ行くのか・・・
You're gonna keep on going...

まだ行くのかよ　武蔵・・・
You're really gonna keep on going, Takezo...

待て
Wait.

ハア
Haah.

Hey!

ぬおーっ
Yaaaah.

待てって
Wait, man!

オイッ
Hey!

待てって　武蔵ー!!
Wait, I said, Takezooo!!

俺のことよりお前はあれからどうしてる?
Enough about me, what have you been doing since then?

身装りから察するにけっこう・・・
If I had to guess by how you look, you've been quite...

ほっとけよ!
Leave me be!

ぬ?
Hunh?

どうだっていいだろう　俺のことは!!
I don't really matter to you, right!!

やり遂げてないだと・・・
You haven't made it, you say...

Page 12
かっこつけんな!!
Stop putting on airs!!

Page 13
流派もなけりゃ師匠もいねえ!
You never had a teacher or a school!

所詮はあの山ん中をかけずり回って身につけた田舎剣法のくせに!!
You've just got your backwater swordstyle that you learned from when you ran around that mounting!!

ああ　お前と一緒にな
Yeah, same with you.

たまにだろ!!
Only occasionally!

ごくたまに!!
Not very often!!

ここまでが出来すぎるいいとこなんだっ!!
You should say that you've done way too much, having gotten this far!!

佐々木小次郎を知ってるか!
You know who Sasaki Kojiro is!?

ムギュ
*grip*

知ってんのか!?
You know him!?

ああ　この前話した
Yeah, I talked with him a little while ago.

ウソつくなぁ!!
Don't lie!!

見えすいたウソを
I can see through that lie too easily!

話せるわけがねえ!!
He can't freaking talk!!

ああ　そういえばそうか
Oh, yeah, now that you mention it.

なんでだろう　話したような気がしてる
That's weird, I felt like I talked to him.

面白えな
That's interesting.

こ・・・この俺が今何してるか聞いたな
Yo-... you asked what I'm doing these days, right?

教えてやろう　俺はな・・・
I'll tell you. I'm...

佐々木・・・
Sasaki...

おいっ
Hey.

Page 16
あんたらもう出てってくんねえか　他のお客さんの迷惑だ!
Could you two leave? You're causing trouble for the other customers!

器も　もうこれ以上壊されちゃかなわねえ!
I can't have you breaking anymore of our bowls.

なにィ?
What?

出てってくれ!!お代はいいから
Leave!! You don't even need to pay the bill.

飲みすぎだぞ又八　ふらついてるじゃねえか
You drank too much, Matahachi. Look at you staggering around.

うるせえ!酔ってねえ　俺は!!
Shut up! I'm not drunk!!

このくらいで酔うか!おめえと一緒にすんな!!
As if I'd get drunk with only that little bit! Don't think I'm weak like you!!

Stupid child.

奴らを幾歳じゃと思うておる
Just how old do you think those two are?

連れてるんだろう　知ってるぞ!
She's with you, I know it!

何もかも!!
I know everything!!

Page 18
ククク　有名になったとはいえ修行中の身のはずだよな?
Hehehe, you may be famous now, but aren't you supposed to be training ?

女連れで修行とはまたけっこうな御自分!
You must think highly of yourself to bring a woman with you while you train!

ぬはっ

A bit confused?
