Seeing this, Subaru Natsuki was stunned: "That movie bonus tape, time really is in a closed loop..."
For Gintoki, it might have been just a moment, but for Shinpachi and the other guy, it felt like Gintoki had been missing for a full five years in the movie theater bathroom.
Emilia felt a pang of sadness, a sense of heartache rising within her: "We finally managed to reunite, but now we're going to be separated forever?"
“There’s nothing we can do.” Subaru Natsuki understood Emilia’s feelings at that moment, but could only shake his head regretfully: “This is a world that Gintoki is destined to be unable to survive in.”
Gintoki intends to kill all of his past selves: his self five years in the future, his self fifteen years ago, and... his current self.
With a sudden idea in mind, the eccentric man asked curiously, "If Gintoki could clear the Nightmare dungeon without taking any damage, could that change the future where Gintoki has to die?"
"It should be possible..." Old Bone pondered for a moment, somewhat uncertain: "But the problem is, how do we clear the game without taking any damage?"
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent instantly. After all, it was a nanomachine virus; let alone clearing the level without taking any damage, they wouldn't even know when it would parasitize their bodies.
"Honestly, this booger is useless." Hearing the other person call his name, Gintoki removed his disguise. "The Trinity, huh? Then we'll meet again someday."
"So I'll keep this for now." Gintoki pulled out the movie theater bonus from his pocket, turned around, and gave the group one last smile.
Then, as the time machine activated, a dazzling beam of light shot into the sky, enveloping Gintoki in it: "Only you guys... don't forget about me!"
"Gintoki—!!!" Shinpachi and Kagura watched helplessly as Gintoki disappeared. When they came to their senses, they found the world had returned to normal.
“This…this is…because Gintoki changed the past…but what about Gintoki…”
Shinpachi and Kagura frantically searched the city for Gintoki, like headless flies: "Hijikata-san, have you seen Gintoki?"
Strangely, Hijikata Toshiro seemed to be hearing the name for the first time, looking completely bewildered: "Huh? Gintoki? Who's that? By the way, who are you? How do you know my name?"
"Alas, the past has changed, and Edo has returned to its original state, but what about you? A world has been born where only Gintoki is no longer present..."
Looking at the city that had been restored to its original state, the people couldn't feel happy at all; instead, they felt deeply confused.
Hijikata-sensei's lack of memory of Gintoki indicates that the past has indeed changed, but why haven't Shinpachi and Kagura's memories disappeared?
Chapter 987: 15 years of bitter waiting, all for the sake of saving Gintoki after he saves the world!
Detective Conan World
"It's all a mess... My train of thought is completely scattered." Conan stared at the blank sheet of paper filled with information in front of him, his hand unconsciously tugging at his hair, his brows furrowed tightly into a deep frown.
What is certain is that Gintoki's journey back in time did change that hopeless future, but...
If things had changed, Gintoki should have disappeared fifteen years ago, so there would be no reason for Shinpachi and Kagura to have any memories of Gintoki!
Ai Haibara was equally puzzled: "Is it possible that multiple timelines overlapped? So... the memories were also superimposed?"
Conan pondered for a moment, but still denied the conjecture: "No, there should only be one timeline. We'll know when the future world returns to normal."
Regardless of how Gintoki changes the future across different timelines, it won't alter the overall picture. (Similar to Future Trunks)
Furthermore, the idea of memory overlap doesn't make sense either; if that were the case, there's no reason why Hijikata Toshiro and the others wouldn't have memories of Gintoki.
Professor Agasa silently poured a cup of hot tea for the two PhDs in time studies, then his gaze lingered for a moment on their thick, voluminous hair...
I can't help but sigh, youth is truly wonderful!
He used to have this much hair, and he was just as thoughtful. Now, he can't deny that he's getting old.
Chaldea, the world of Type-Moon
Looking at this future world where no one remembers Gintoki's existence, Da Vinci sighed softly: "It's destined to be a world-saving journey unknown to anyone..."
As he spoke, Leonardo da Vinci's gaze drifted, and it was unclear whether he was speaking to Dr. Roman, who was sitting opposite him deep in thought, or to Gintoki.
The peace achieved by burying the future, the past, and the present self in history—the world is never short of fools like that!
"Sakata Gintoki is very suitable for Chaldea!" Dr. Roman said with a hint of regret in his eyes. "If he could become a Heroic Spirit, he might be able to contribute to saving people."
He's serious about poaching talent, and I believe most people would agree with me on that point...
But when he looked up, he found everyone staring at him blankly, their mouths slightly open, their faces filled with shock.
"Doctor? Are you serious?" Fujimaru Ritsuka asked cautiously.
This sudden reaction left Dr. Roman somewhat bewildered, and he subconsciously swallowed: "Is...is there a problem?"
Mashu covered her face with her hands, somewhat helplessly: "This is a serious problem, Doctor!"
She respected Sakata Gintoki's actions, but Gintoki himself... had absolutely no morals!
Asking him to save humanity might just get him picking his nose and listlessly telling you, "Well, good luck then..."
[The scene shifts to fifteen years ago, to the battlefield of the Exile War...]
Gintoki, who came from the future, stood side by side with the Time Thief on the edge of a cliff, silently watching the fierce battle below, the air thick with the stench of blood.
"Gintoki-sama, please forgive me. I was created according to your wishes from the future, to bring about change."
"Therefore, no matter the cost, we must reclaim the future... even a future where your existence has vanished."
"It won't just disappear like that. Even if everyone forgets, I will always remember." Gintoki handed the movie bonus to the Time Thief, a gentle smile on his face.
"So, could you please tell them for me? I'm really happy to have been able to build the Yorozuya with you guys."
After explaining everything, Gintoki slowly drew his Toyako sword from his waist and roared as he charged towards the battlefield below: "Yorozuya, Sakata Gintoki, reporting for duty!!!"
Meanwhile, in the future world, Shinpachi and Kagura arrive at the Otose Tavern, where the original Yorozuya sign has disappeared...
Gintama World
"Speak, Gintoki!"
Shinpachi and Kagura stood up silently, wiped away their tears, and stared at Gintoki with determined expressions: "Where did you put those seven magical beads with star patterns engraved on them?"
"So be it, the Great Pirate Era! Even if we become the King of the Universe, we'll find it..."
They would not accept that kind of future, nor do they want to! They would even seek out the Seven O's Beads, and they would participate in the Holy O's War.
As long as Gintoki can live, they will do anything!
“You guys…” Gintoki stared blankly at the two of them. His usual ability to crack jokes was now completely gone under their gaze.
"Hahaha, Gintoki, just admit it." Katsura laughed, his gaze seemingly piercing through Gintoki. "Only when all three of us are together is it truly a Yorozuya!"
You want to protect the world, but they want to protect you. Unbeknownst to them, a deep bond has been formed between you. It seems there's no need to worry about you anymore...
Hijikata Toshiro slapped his forehead in annoyance: "Really, how could I forget about that idiot's naturally curly face? He must have been smoking too much nicotine."
"No, Mr. Hijikata." Sougo tossed the mayonnaise from the pocket of Juichi into the air: "It's clearly just forgetfulness from eating too much dog food. Don't worry about it now!"
"mayonnaise--!!!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Fourteen leaped high from the balcony, stretching out his arms and fingers frantically reaching forward, trying to catch the dog food that was about to hit the ground.
[Gintoki, having reached the center of the battlefield, relentlessly engaged in combat, closing in on the white-clad, naturally curly-haired figure ahead, roaring as he thrust his Lake Toya sword towards him...]
"And so... it's all over!" (For thrilling novels, visit Feilu Novel Network!)
Meanwhile, in the future world, as Gintoki thrust his sword, the last remaining memory tape of the movie theater special edition in front of Shinpachi and Kagura also vanished.
The two looked up, bewildered, and touched the tears streaming down their faces: "Huh, why am I crying..."
"Why...why?"
Just then, footsteps sounded behind them. The Time Thief, his clothes tattered and battered, struggled to walk towards them step by step...
"Fifteen years have passed since then... Now I can finally act not to save the world, but to save you."
[With that, the time machine removed its disguised camera, and Tama pulled out the movie theater-themed tape that Gintoki had taught her: "Let's use the data I saved, Gintoki-sama!"]
Meanwhile, fifteen years ago...
[Under Gintoki's bewildered gaze, MADAO, wearing a naturally curly wig, slowly turned around: "Yes, the entire Yueyi Yi Ni Daddy's matter is over, saving your irredeemable future."]
"Wait, does the timeline jump again from here? Gintoki saves the future world, and then the people of the future world go to save Gintoki..."
"The time machine that went back 15 years ago ran out of power and couldn't return—oh no, it should be Xiaoyu, who waited in the same spot for a full 15 years..."
Seeing this scene, everyone felt a chill run down their spines. The timeline was a complete mess. It wasn't until they saw Xiaoyu, who was covered in tatters and had been waiting in the same spot for fifteen years, reappear that they felt a chill.
Only then did the timeline become clear; after all, it was quite mind-bending...
Gintoki, who went back in time, actually killed his 15-year-younger self, which led to a future where everyone is healthy and alive, but he forgot about Gintoki.
However, Tama, who had waited there for fifteen years, still possessed information about Gintoki, so she came to save him again...
Emiya Family's Meal World
Looking at the movie theater bonus in the other person's hand, Sakura's eyes welled up with tears: "Tama waited 15 years without any maintenance for Gintoki's promise..."
In a world where everyone has forgotten Gintoki, only Tama carries their memories, just so that she can save him after Gintoki saves the world!
Shirou smiled with relief: "Luckily, that world doesn't have a parallel universe, otherwise Gintoki would really be doomed."
After all, he still hasn't figured out how many of his own parallel world counterparts there are, to put it bluntly.
Listening to everyone's discussion... Saber's eyes had turned into mosquito coils, and he suddenly felt that his brain was not quite up to par.
"I should have realized it sooner; the time thief is Tama." Rin Tohsaka slapped her forehead in frustration.
After all, among that group of people, only Tama respects Gintoki and calls him Gintoki-sama!
Academy City World
Kamijou Touma stared in shock at the scene, marveling, "They've really come up with some amazing ways to use this time machine..."
Gintoki probably really killed himself twice, once five years later and once during the Joui period, which is why the future was changed.
