* Rurouni Kenshin Manga Translation *
* Chapter hundred and thirty-eight: Real reason *
(Shishio throws Kenshin away and spits out a piece of flesh)
Shishio: How crude and undelicious... as of poison and medicine caste.
Kenshin: (holds his left shoulder) Wo... ah...
Shishio: Thereby my point, this world is only of weak flesh strong food,
the mighty survive, the lessers perish! These words engraved upon
Soujirou's mind, where he be not just knowledged in kenjutsu. In one small
nutshell, this be the real reason, that the weak exists as the mighty's
foodstuff, that wouldst wholly be their responsibility, to allow higher
heights accessible for man, is the whole value of foostuff, so, the peakest
peaks of the highest high exists thereby only for the mightiest! The whole
authority of this infinitesimal Meiji government exists for I myself only!
(tightens his fist)
Shishio: High dictatorship authority, only I myself deserves, my blueprint
for the country belies in wholly this real reason. The mighty survive, the
lessers perish, to defy such an established edict in the face of a
Bakumatsu whirlwind experienced Hitokiri Battousai of you would be of total
uselessness. Doth thou catch the ball?
Kenshin: Cometh! Foodstuff indeed thou terms, they too have shook free of
the Bakumatsu era terrors, to survive to here, to enjoy the craving of a
new peace and epoch. A natural sacrfice wouldst be impossible now, and too
all these do not exist of now. Thou hath activated the chaos once again, to
re-establish a society of then, thereby whatever the reason not thou sticks
firmly to, this unworthy one shall be the protruding slight, to disallow
such audacity!
Shishio: You hath mouthed the lipless, while I hath said the real reason.
Kenshin: Your real reasons be yours, this lowly one here shall up tall!!!!
Sano: *As per normal, such convincing words be't towards anybody, such a
mental test set before shall have bits of influence... to down on in this
situation, a death would not be avoidable now... no, no change in such, no
caved in movement either. Whoever wishes to split up this fellow's mental
attitude is impossible. Whilst an onwards march, would result in a bodily
extreme instead...*
(clenching his right fist)
Shishio: Whether be you lead by head or by heart, the non killing vow of
lived by stubbornly, as the Battou Hitokiri's Battousai to have such a
corroding thought, now comes the time where your name sweeps the floor! If
you hold steadfast to these shameful things, then in my new created era let
your name be remained as a medal!
(Shishio attacks with fire, Kenshin blocks)
Kenshin: A new era thou creates, a old era of established, this undeserving
one wishes no medals or tallies, this unworthy one wishes to merely, let
the shattered remains of thoughts and violent movements fruits, be of the
finalized, total, remaining peace!!
(Kenshin attacks)
Hoji: Shishio-sama!!
Kenshin: Aaaaaaaaahhhhh!!
Shishio: Faithful words of a pained man I shall bear deep in me, then let
me scatter the man of pain now!
(dodges Kenshin's attack and lift Kenshin up by his right hand)
Shishio: Such a early fall, too early not...
Kenshin: *The hand... smell...*
Shishio: By my mention, to rattle it scatter!
Kenshin: *Fire... powder...*
Sano: Kenshin!!!
(Shishio lightly touches his arm with his sword, a sudden explosion,
Kenshin's gi is perished and his chest suffers wounds and he faints on the
ground)
Sano: Ken... shin...
Shisiho: Ah! A death so easily, without a show of Ama Kakeru Ryuu No
Hirameki, humph! How unlike him!
(Yumi looks at her wrist watch)
Yumi: Oh thank all, nine minutes fifty three seconds, lesser than the
appointed.
Hoji: (laughing) Ingenious! Fire powder glazed on the arms to ignite for
explosive effect, an ingenious Shishio-sama! No man compared!!
Shishio: Do not make noise such! To revelation after an affair!
Hoji: Yes.
(a noise from without)
"There may still be one man to crave after your life, of strengths you must
not compare!"
(all shocked)
Sano: Saitou!!!
(Saitou gatotsus the silding door towards Shishio)
Saitou: Shishio Makoto, bring thy head forth!
