Chapter 13 : Minamoto Castle Arc III – Concealed Tengu

While the foot soldiers were busy fighting against the Jikan Sokōgun, Hijikata Toshizo without hesitation charge ahead heading to the castle's main door. There were Jikan Sokōgun that dared to attack him but Hijikata didn't even glance as he swiftly cut them to two.

Horikawa Kunihiro was being pushed back for a moment before finding his momentum to give his enemy a final blow and won. He turned to Hijikata to witness how he easily cut the Jikan Sokōgun without worries really amazed him. 'How could he be that strong?' he wondered when he heard a very familiar voice.

"Kunihiro stop phasing out and focus!" Izuminokami Kanesada shouted as he timely protected Horikawa Kunihiro from an enemy's attack. Immediately focusing, Horikawa Kunihiro he dashed forward and killed the enemy and died. Izuminokami Kanesada directed, "Let's charge forward Kunihiro!"

"Yes sir!" Horikawa Kunihiro replied as the two charge forward to follow Hijikata.

At the main door's location, Okita Alter who had first arrive did not hesitate to use her sword to cut the main door down to multiple pieces, successfully giving them a wide entrance to charge in.

That's was also how they witness the confirmed enemy servant, Saito Hajime standing up from his sit. Eyes glowing red as he pulled out his sword.

Okita Alter immediately made a report through telepathy while in battle position, "Enemy servant confirmed, Saito Hajime-san is here to greet us!"

"Die!" Saito Hajime roared as he charged forward and Okita Alter successfully defended it.

The Jikan Sokōgun who remained behind had also charge to attack but they were all sliced by Ushiwakamaru who appeared out of nowhere. Immediately, Ushiwakamaru turned around to attack Hajime from behind which he immediately pushed Okita Alter away to dodge her attack.

"We can't wait for the rest, let's do it Alter." Ushiwakamaru said as she charged to attack him. Alter answered back in deep tone, "Of course Ushiwakamaru-san."

The two began working together to attack Hajime. The Jikan Sokōgun that were defeated by Ushiwakamaru had started to reappear once again and before they could interfere, Yagen Toushirou and Kikkou Sadamune took action to slice them once again to death.

Unknown to the enemies, above them were Gudao, Saniwa and Muramasa still riding on the Shadow Servant Achilles' chariot remained, observing the situation.

Muramasa made a report after sensing a familiar presence, "Master, there were multiple enemy servants nearby, two Servants above while the other was here but..."

Sensing the pause, Gudao asked. "Was it here the whole time?"

Muramasa answered, "No but I was able to sense it when Ushiwakamaru sliced the enemies. The presence immediately disappeared, it's possible that we're about to deal with an Assassin Class."

'We will need to bring them out to defeat them.' Gudao thought and Saniwa made an announcement, "Gudao I see Yamatonokami, Kashuu, Hasebe, and Okita arrived and joined the battle." Gudao nodded in confirmation, 'We need to drive the Assassin out…'

"Have you gone so low to be easily manipulated Hajime!" Okita shouted as she dashed forward to thrust her sword but was easily defended by Hajime's sword. Hajime grinned, "Okita it's been a while but as expected, your weak!"

Hajime gave a powerful slice three times, causing Okita to be pushed back as she could not handle the strength, he's putting on his blade. Hajime dashed forward to give a final blow against Okita when Hijikata arrived to block it. Behind him, both Izuminokami Kanesada and Horikawa Kunihiro arrived to help dealing with the rest of the Jikan Sokōgun.

Hajime grinned widely as he finally the very person he once respect, Hijikata now in front of him.

"Vice commander Hijikata, how I long to see you again." Hajime said as he pushed his blade forward. Hijikata remained to his ground but there's no denying that he's struggling from his strength, still he grinned viciously. "Hajime, you are becoming far crazier day by day, that's supposed to be my position and not you!"

The two began to exchange sword to the point they became so fast that eyes alone were not enough to follow their movement. The current Touken Danshi who witness this were also having trouble following but for the Servants that were present, they were calm while dealing with Jikan Sokōgun. There's no denying that they were able to follow the movements between the two and once given a chance, Ushiwakamaru who happened to be the nearest immediately took over Hijikata's position when he was pushed away to occupy Hajime next.

When Ushiwakamaru was pushed away, Okita who was the nearest immediately took over and after her was Hijikata. It became a flow that even Hajime who was overpowered had started to get pissed especially when not given a chance to give a final blow to any of them. Within those times, another batch came in to join the battle and those were Sakamoto Ryouma, Okada Izo, Higekiri, Hizamaru, Imanotsurugi, and Mutsunokami Yoshiyuki.

Above, Saniwa looked relief to see all Touken Danshi present and joining the fight.

"I'm glad everyone's alright." Saniwa could not help but murmured then looked around to notice some people were still missing. He turned to Gudao who looked convinced about something and before he could ask about it, Gudao spoke first. "Saniwa there's a crazy idea that I need to do and I hope you will cooperate with me."

"… huh?" Was the word Saniwa could only mutter as he listened to Gudao's plan.

Below, the battle continue between Servants but not once Ryouma and Izou joined the battle against Hajime but it's clear that Izou felt frustrated about it and would unleash his undeniable fury to the Jikan Sokōgun, those who just emerged were not spared by his blade. Ryouma on the other hand despite being busy dealing with the Jikan Sokōgun, his mind remained focus as he observed the Hajime's condition.

"I have enough of this dance, time for you to die!" Hajime roared as a large amount of power started to gather around his sword.

Immediately everyone knows the coming danger and started to prepare against it and some even prepared to use their Noble Phantasm to deal against it.

"Die!" Hajime roared as he's about to unleash the overwhelming power when a single shot disrupted it and successfully dispelled it.

This surprise Hajime and his eyes turned upward to see the two Master and one Servant. The shadow servant Achilles had long gone so currently, Muramasa was carrying Saniwa in his arm while Gudao was on his back.

Gudao looked smug as he said loudly, "Looks like my training with Medea was finally paying off."

"Chaldea's… Master…" Hajime murmured for a moment then he grinned sharply as he said, "Found you."

Out of nowhere behind Gudao, Muramasa and Saniwa a new enemy servant appeared, lance in hand and wild red eyes reflected with intent to kill.

Okita and the others were shocked on what they're seeing. 'I won't make it!' Most of them thought, 'Muramasa, protect the Master!'

For the people who were in danger, they were not panicking at all. It's more like they had expected this.

"Found you." Muramasa murmured and before the enemy could swing their spear, a large number of bullets started raining to them.

Thanks to Saniwa's power, he created a barrier to protect them from it while Muramasa maneuvered his body to get a safe landing on the ground.

The enemy Assassin twitched in irritation as the prey got away and before they could charge forward, a familiar wild face appeared before them. It was none other than Minamoto-no-Raiko, eyes glazed in lightning as fast as lightning swinged their sword and was blocked by the enemy.

"Ughh!" Despite the enhancement, they still felt the heaviness in Raiko's sword, as expected from a Berserker Class.

"That face… I see, you are our enemy huh…" Raiko grin sharply but there's no denying the madness radiating around her, "Kiichi Hogen-chan!"

The enemy servant identified as Kiichi Hogen grinned back wildly as both began their wild exchange. On the other hand, Muramasa safely landed down and let go of Saniwa while Gudao immediately took forward and roared his order.

"Piercing formation! Hijikata-san, Okita, Alter focus on Hajime-san! Raiko-san don't let her escape to your sight! Ushiwakamaru assist Raiko-san! Nobu rain gun on both of them! Ryouma-san, Izou-san don't let any of them get in their way! Muramasa remain here to be my sword and shield! Push our enemy to the point they will expose everything then cut them to pieces!"

Evil grins started to spread among the Servants and replied in union, "Yes Master!"

Without hesitation Ushiwakamaru turned swiftly and immediately head towards Hogen to attack, Hijikata, Alter and Okita worked together to continuously attack Hajime while Nobunaga without care used her Three Line Formation to attack both sides.

"Thi-this is beyond reckless!" Imanotsurugi complained as he barely dodged Nobunaga's attack and immediately turned to his previous master in worry, "Ushiwakamaru-sama!"

Imanotsurugi was shocked when he witnesses Ushiwakamaru's prowess, the speed of her move that almost none of Nobunaga's attack hit her, how she swiftly multiply and began her barrage attack against Hogen without reservation and how she knows when to step back to give Raiko's moment to attack.

'This is far too amazing! I'm very sure the Ushiwakamaru-sama I know could never do something amazing like her… yet… for her to be able to do that… just how far different was Ushiwakamaru-sama I know to her?' Imanotsurugi wondered, completely forgetting his surroundings.

It was because he's no longer focus that an enemy was able to sneak in and bring down its sword to end him but was saved by none other than Hizamaru. Imanotsurugi realized his mistake when he saw Hizamaru saved him.

"Ah! Hizamaru-san I'm sorry I-" Before he could complete his words, Hizamaru cut in. "Imanotsurugi I understand how you feel but no matter what focus on our battle or your life will end! Think what will Aruji-sama think when he witnesses one of us got hurt because we got distracted to our previous master's battle, he will never allow us to fight alongside them again. FOCUS!"

The words may be harsh but Hizamaru wants him to understand the harsh reality, of what's at stake in this mission. They're not allowed to fail, they can't allow their emotion to get better of them.

Imanotsurugi too also understand so he nodded, "Okay, thank you for keeping my mind straight Hizamaru-san."

"We're a team, its natural." Hizamaru coolly said. Higekiri who witnessed everything could not help but chuckle in amusement, "What an amazing speech there… ummm… what's your name again?"

"It's Hizamaru, Anija!" Hizamaru exclaim in horror before turning serious as the twins danced around to cut down their enemies.

Imanotsurugi smiled for the two and gripped his tantou tightly, 'I can't lose to them, not even to Ushiwakamaru-sama!' He mentally exclaims and without hesitation charged forward to slice the enemies in his way.

Saniwa observed the surroundings in calculated eyes, 'Despite the fact we had separated the two there's still no doubt that the enemy's strength was on another level.' He glanced to Muramasa who was known as a blacksmith yet was still able to keep the Jikan Sokōgun on the distance away from them then there's Gudao who uses magecraft to support Raiko at the same time also observing the battle in calculating eyes. Saniwa turned back on the battlefield and an idea came to mind, immediately he roared his order.

"Izuminokami have your team focus on clearing the path heading up! If the rest of the enemy's Servants won't come to us then let's go and force them to join us!"

"Yes Aruji-sama!" Izuminokami Kanesada affirmed and immediately bark orders as the team leader, "Yamatonokami, Higekiri, Hizamaru, Yagen, Imanotsurugi follow my lead, clear the path above!"

"Yes sir!" The team bellowed as they charge, killing the Jikan Sokōgun as swift as possible.

"Hasebe, do what you can to support Izuminokami's team while supporting Gudao's main team!" Saniwa followed up order and Hasebe replied, "I will Aruji-sama!"

Hasebe began barking orders to his team and they began to move according to the leader's orders. The servants who were in the middle of the battle mentally smirked as the chance they're waiting for arrived. Once the opening showed, immediately Ushiwakamaru with tremendous speed charge forward and made a clash with Hogen.

"Hogen I'm really grateful to your clan's Six Secret Teachings and the Three Strategies of Huang Shigong! What do you think, had I surpassed you and everyone else?" Ushiwakamaru mocked with glee, causing Hogen to be furious. "Cheeky brat, not only you seduced my daughter just so you could peek at our clan's technique now you're declaring that you surpassed us! You bastard I will kill you!"

Ushiwakamaru and Hogen exchange clashes for some time until Ushiwakamaru decided to change from attacking to dodging then began heading off, Hogen out of anger did not hesitate to chaise her.

Raiko wasn't falling behind as she immediately followed from behind. Thanks to Izuminokami Kanesada's team that they had reached the stairs with ease.

"Hijikata your team are falling behind!" Nobunaga mocked as she used her skill, "Ora, Ora, Ora!"

Thousands of matchlock rifles appeared above her in line and started shooting simultaneously towards Hajime, forcing him to keep jumping back just to dodge her attacks.

Saniwa could not help but be in awe upon seeing her skill, "Hey Gudao, what Oda-san was using was…!?"

"I'm sure you heard about Nobu's history related to the firing formation that was employed at Nagashino, that's exactly what you're seeing Saniwa." Gudao said with pride for Nobunaga and immediately bellowed an order, "Don't waste Nobu's effort, go for it!"

"Yes Master!" Alter answered for them as the three chased after Hajime at the same time making sure they were not being hit by Nobu's skill.

Since the battle was moving and so were the people in the extra team, dealing with Jikan Sokōgun as they move forward.

"Follow them, Master." Muramasa said as he gave a slash that immediately killed five Jikan Sokōgun. Gudao nodded in acknowledgement and turned to Saniwa who gave a nod and immediately both made a run to follow them. Muramasa followed them at the same time killing the enemies that goes near them.

"Gudao I know we have no information about the enemies Servants but do you have any idea about who do you think we're about to face?" Saniwa asked as he run. Gudao answered, "I have candidates in mind but whoever they maybe, I'm prepared to face them head on."

Saniwa smirked, "Good point."

They continue to run as they climbed the stairs until they reach the top where the other two enemy servants were waiting, one was sitting on the throne while the other one standing beside the person sitting the throne. Hogen and Hajime were standing beside their allies while the Chadea Servants were in fighting position, covering their master for any attempts of attack.

"Hoho… to think the Chaldea Master will come to us…" The Servant sitting in the throne said then stood up as he bellowed, eyes glowing in crimson and there's no denying the greater power omitting around him, "Please to finally meet you Chaldea Master, I'm the Daimyo ruling over the Minamoto Castle under the banner of Demons Army."

Gudao could not help but sweat as he smiled, "I have candidates in mind but really why it's always you make on top of the suspects… really, I should have a long talk with Samiramis-san after I return."

"Samiramis? Chaldea Master I never thought you are in one for jokes." The enemy Daimyo said as he shook his head in disappointment.

"Just this once, I'm glad she's not with us to hear those words." Okita commented loudly, followed by Alter. "Yeah, if she's here there's a chance that she will start flooding everything with poison."

Saniwa glanced towards Gudao, "Do you know him?"

"Yes." Gudao answered with a nod as he announced the Daimyo's identity. "Ruler Class Servant, Amakusa Shiro. He's known as the young boy who led the Shimabara Rebellion during the early days of the Edo period."

"Shimabara Rebellion…" Saniwa thought for a moment until he remembered that part of history, "Ah! Now I remember, the one that led the ancient retainers of daimyo Konishi Yukinaga in a rebellion against the Edo Shogunate, which caused a full-scale rebellion to break out among the suffering peasantry of Shimabara. At first, the shogunate underestimated the rebellion, but after their first expeditionary force was defeated, they sent a larger force led by Matsudaira Nobutsuna. So that was him."

"Yes." Gudao agreed. Saniwa turned to the other person who remained standing and staring at them, "Who's the other one?"

"That's…" Before Gudao could answer, Nobunaga twitched as she mumbled in irritation, "Hehe there's a little chance but to see you again makes my blood boil in fury."

"My, I'm quite happy to see you once again Lady Nobunaga. I hope you are in great health for all these years." The person who was standing beside the Daimyo said as he gave a bow of respect towards Nobunaga.

"That person was none other than Akechi Mitsuhide, Caster Class Servant. Be careful, he's quite cunning." Gudao said for everyone and his announcement surprised Kikkou Sadamune, "What…!? That person… is Akechi Mitsuhide?"

The person identified as as Akechi Mitsuhide smirked a bit while Amakusa couldn't help but give an evil chuckle, truly welcoming the intruders before him.
