"Koizumi, didn't you say you were coming down to figure something out?"

Nobunaga looked curious, his eyes blinking as if he was trying to get some words out of Koizumi.

Unfortunately, this time, Koizumi was unable to give the other party some definite information.

Although Koizumi did come down here to find a solution, in reality, his solution was to deal with the mastermind behind the scenes.

If I bring this out when I fight the boss on the 80th floor, then the boss will definitely be afraid of me and my group and might kill me in advance. After all, Yui's abilities are there, but her fighting power is basically zero...

"Um... I did come down here to think of a solution. I didn't expect this..."

Koizumi felt a little embarrassed when Nobunaga suddenly brought up this matter.

How should I put it? He hadn't come down here to fight the 80th floor boss in the first place.

But when he said it at the beginning, Nobunaga had already misunderstood it like that, so what else could Koizumi say?

And maybe I could actually come up with something, right? But in the end, I really didn't think of it...

In any case, sometimes, absolute suppression of strength can indeed ignore all calculations.

In this situation, all we can do is improve our own strength.

But the hard part is, no matter how high your level is, can you still use cold weapons to cut down the cannons? Impossible!

Koizumi's sword is indeed inspired by the end, but without the ability to unleash its mystical power, Koizumi's sword cannot truly overturn the world. This is the constraint imposed on Koizumi by the rules of the world, and there is nothing he can do about it.

"So you just sat there fishing for so long?"

The corners of Nobunaga's mouth twitched slightly. She felt that her nerves were being greatly challenged by this man.

In other words, this man actually didn't think about anything, but was under tremendous pressure from above.

She felt like she was on the verge of going berserk.

Anyway, Koizumi went down there to help find a solution.

In the end, he told himself that he hadn't figured out anything... Isn't this a headache?

"I didn't mean to do that...and it was obviously my own misunderstanding that led to this."

Koizumi couldn't help but mutter, "It was you who misunderstood, wasn't it?"

That's not wrong, but it's Koizumi's own fault if he doesn't explain.

He felt that there was no need to explain further, after all, Koizumi had given it some thought.

"But, in fact, there is no need for us to think too much here. After all, no matter what, we can't win. Or do you think we can't win and shouldn't go?"

"Yup!"

However, Nobunaga nodded directly, which immediately made Koizumi confused.

I finally fooled you this time! Nobunaga's face was suddenly filled with pride.

After seeing this, he knew very well that he was being made fun of by this guy.

"That's enough, you bastard..."

Koizumi also covered his forehead, feeling somewhat helpless at Nobunaga's words, but—

Gu Quan's idea was very simple and crude. The opponent had already used things outside the rules. It was obvious that at this point, it was no longer a problem that could be solved by simple sword skills.

Since the opponent has already turned over the chessboard, we can only rely on things outside the rules to win.

Things outside the rules can only be dealt with with things outside the rules...

Since the other party is cheating, then Gu Quan can only... cheat too.

Glancing at his Gungnir, Koizumi didn't want to rely on Othinus, as he probably wasn't interested in this either.

Then the only one I can rely on is...

"Take a day off and get some rest. The Demon King's Army will start moving tomorrow... No, we don't need to use the Demon King's Army. We can just go!" Koizumi suddenly changed his tone mid-sentence.

It's not that Koizumi doesn't trust the other party, it's just that they've already reached the 80th floor, and most of the strategy team has been wiped out. This is definitely not a problem of strength. This has revealed a truth to Koizumi and others: without a solution, it's useless to send more people... On the contrary, to deal with Servants, only those who understand them can do it.

The only pity is that no one escaped back to give any information...

Even if you give me some information, based on my understanding of Servants, I can definitely guess who that person is in a minute!

"Don't we need to mobilize the Demon King's army?"

Nobunaga raised his eyebrows slightly, his face full of subtle expression.

In other words, just take away all the servants of the Demon King's army except Chacha and Yui?

I always feel like I'm going to fight hard and then everyone kneels down...

Is Koizumi really planning a desperate fight? But this approach is quite reliable...

In any case, there is no other way to go now.

"No, although it sounds a bit direct, there's really no need to bring a bunch of cumbersome things with you. Regardless of the rules of this world, it's best not to bring any other combat power with you in a Servant battle. If the enemy is likely to fully unleash their Noble Phantasms, and there are any extra casualties, the pressure you have to bear will be very uncomfortable..."

The attacking team has already lost most of its troops. If the Demon King's army suffers large-scale losses again this time, apart from other things, the people below will definitely be in a state of panic, and it may even have a great impact on the next attacking strategy.

In battle, one's mentality is also a major factor affecting the outcome...

There are very few people like Gu Quan who remain calm even when faced with a huge crisis.

Well... by the way, Nobunaga is heartless, unlike Koizumi!

"Me, Asuna, Youmu, Kaguya, and you... Four Servants and one Master, that's enough!"

"Get ready and start working tomorrow..."

Chapter 1379——If only I hadn’t given birth to you!

Speaking of dreaming, Koizumi has had it before.

When in Chaldea, Doremi nurtured Koizumi's spirit through dreams.

Normally, he didn't feel anything, but now that he's lost Doremi's assistance, Koizumi realized just how far his spirit has come. It can only be said that he only remembers the other person's kindness at the most critical moment.

However, it's rare for Koizumi to dream about his Servant's past like this.

It's not that Koizumi's bond with the others is weak, but that almost all of the Chaldean Servants are from Gensokyo, and Koizumi knows something about their pasts. For Koizumi, recalling their pasts through dreams seems unnecessary.

Emmmm... The only thing that happened was probably with Doremi's help, which allowed Koizumi to learn about Reimu's past.

This time, Koizumi seemed to hear intermittent sobbing.

"The most suitable person to inherit the position of head of the Oda family should be His Highness Nobukatsu. As everyone knows, His Highness Nobukatsu is well-educated, steady and down-to-earth. He is the most suitable candidate to become the new head of the family!"

"Yes, yes, yes! His Highness Nobukatsu is the most suitable!"

"The primogeniture system is the most reasonable and popular system of succession! Logically, His Highness Nobunaga should inherit the position of head of the family to ensure the stability of the Oda family!"

The noisy sound echoed repeatedly in his ears, and Koizumi roughly understood what was going on.

Was this Nobunaga's dream? Then this must be... the scene of the struggle for family heir?

Oh my goodness! Is this a live broadcast of sibling violence?

The scene was very chaotic for a while, and the retainers took sides one after another, but Nobunaga remained silent.

Looking through the crowd, Koizumi instantly spotted a man who looked very similar to Nobunaga.

I don't know if it was Koizumi's imagination, but when he talked about inheriting the family heir, a hint of irritation appeared between his brows.

It was as if he was not happy to do this.

If I remember correctly, Oda Nobukatsu rebelled many times just to fight for the family heir...

So what's going on with this emotion?

——Gu Quan, who has long been very familiar with Qin Xin's power, can infer the other person's emotions through the other person's expression even if he cannot use Qin Xin's power. It can only be said that he has also learned some psychology after using it for a long time.

“Is this a vegetable market?”

Koizumi couldn't help but complain.

Listening to the noisy sounds inside, Koizumi sighed.

After a quick glance, I spotted the coffin...

My goodness, the previous head of the family just died, and you guys didn't even help with the condolences, but instead started a quarrel in front of someone else's mourning hall, fighting over the head of the family.

The corner of Gu Quan's mouth twitched slightly. Do you still have any respect for the dead?

The quarrel at the scene gradually turned in a direction unfavorable to Nobunaga.

In any case, Nobunaga's reputation at that time was indeed not very good. The name of the Big Fool of Owari spread throughout Owari, and even the neighboring Imagawa family, the Saito family, and the Nagao family further away knew about it.

——We can only talk about good things and not spread bad things.

The next moment, Koizumi's gaze fell on Nobunaga, who was dressed in military uniform.

Unexpectedly, Nobunaga, who was usually very active, remained silent at this moment. He sat still with his eyes closed. No one knew what he was thinking. He did not intend to refute the criticisms from those around him. He just knelt on the ground.

Taking a look at the other person's expression, Koizumi couldn't help but sigh. Although Nobunaga usually looks sloppy and unfocused, she values ​​feelings more than anyone else.

Just like now, she is actually trying to relieve her psychological grief...

But sometimes, she has to give up something.

And precisely because I value it more than anyone else, that's why—

When she was betrayed by the Asai family, she was extremely angry...

If Monkey had not stood up when Jinqi retreated, she was afraid that something serious would have happened.

The stab the Asai family gave when they betrayed me was truly severe...

Suddenly, amid a burst of noise, Nobunaga opened his eyes abruptly, stood up, and strode forward.

As he walked step by step, he couldn't help but glance around, and the anger in his eyes was obvious.

Everyone was shocked and froze for a moment as if they were stunned.

Nobunaga separated the group of retainers who were arguing like uncles and aunts, walked to the coffin of Oda Nobuhide, and then -

He grabbed a handful of incense ash from the incense burner and sprinkled it on Oda Nobuhide's coffin.

The corners of Guquan's mouth twitched slightly. This kid is having another attack!

A woman suddenly became angry and shouted.

"What are you doing to your father's coffin!?"

Not to mention this person, the others were even more shocked and spoke quickly.

"Nobunaga-sama has gone crazy!"

"Crazy! Am I really crazy? Hahahahahahahahahahahaha"

Nobunaga laughed heartily, and the look on his face at that moment was something Koizumi had never seen before.

Without intending to explain why he did this, Nobunaga ignored everyone and strode out of the castle tower.

"I'm going back. It's so boring to stay here!"

It really is the most confusing behavior award of the year!

Watching the other person gradually walk away, Koizumi complained quietly in his heart.

However, this can be considered as Nobunaga's own way of mourning his father.

Compared to Nobunaga, those guys who ignored the dead and were as busy as the aunties in the vegetable market, and started to fight for the position of family head not long after the person died, were the ones who were really rude...

There is no need for Koizumi to move forward. The scene before him reflects Nobunaga's memories, so just by standing still, Koizumi can read about Nobunaga's life, and after that, Nobunaga began to fight for the heir to the Oda family.

"That's true..."

Koizumi had previously speculated on the reason behind Oda Nobukatsu's strange behavior.

When Koizumi saw Oda Nobukatsu, who was about to rebel again, being tricked out of Kiyosu Castle and his final words to Nobunaga, he knew this kid was a sister complex...

——Onee-sama, I’ll leave everything to you from now on!

Nobunaga's face became gloomy again, and sadness filled his brows.

The burly and powerful warrior came in slowly and spoke.

"Lord Nobunaga, your mother has come to see you!"

“…Send him back!”
