The person who had sent Hajime to face Kenshin was none other than the Head of the Home Ministry, former Satsuma Domain Revolutionary warrior, Toshimichi Okubo. He asks Kenshin to go to Kyoto to stop the secret plans of a man who claims to be the legitimate successor of the Hitokiri Battosai. However, that man was supposed to have been killed 10 years ago by his own comrades in the government, as they regarded him as a threat. Receiving this request to conduct an assassination, what will Kenshin's answer be...?
Without the prosperity
of the Meiji government,
Ohne das Gedeihen der Meiji-Regierung
No hay paz para el pueblo sin el avance
y prosperidad que da el gobierno, tonto.
Esa gente no vivirá en paz
si el Gobierno no prospera, cazurro.
Senza il governo Meiji
non potrebbe esserci la pace, idiota!
Não é possível que o povo viva em paz sem
a prosperidade do governo Meiji, idiota!
Не будет никакого мира гражданам,
если страна останется без нынешней власти!
