Chapter 414 - Drinking

Kakashi smiled and said, "Yeah, I am here. Sorry, it looks like I\'m late."

"It\'s not too late, it\'s never too late for a good opponent."

"It seems you are really looking forward to this battle." Kakashi said with a smile.

"Of course, I waited for six years, and then waited for another two years, in order to continue our unfinished battle at the Samurai Conference," Tetsuken said.

"So… should we start now?" Kakashi said, looking at Tetsuken.

The Lake Toya in Tetsuken\'s hand moved slightly, and his fighting intent instantly rose, but soon it disappeared.

Kakashi was a little puzzled when he saw this, and said, "What do you mean by this?"

"Gintoki, you have just arrived in the Land of Iron, I know you must be tired right now, so it is unfair to you if we fight right now. You should rest for a night before we start our battle. I have been waiting for eight years, so it is okay to wait for one more day."

Hearing this, Kakashi was taken aback, \'He is still the same as before.\'

"Well, since you said so, I will not refuse." Kakashi said with a smile.

Tetsuken then put the Lake Toya back into its scabbard. His movement was clean and neat.

With just this movement, swordsman would know that Tetsuken is a really strong swordsman.

After putting his sword back into its sheath, Tetsuken\'s face finally showed a smile.

"Gintoki, now that you are here, before the battle, it is better for us to have a drinking competition first!" Tetsuken said with a smile.

"Drinking?" Kakashi was a little confused, but soon thought that Tetsuken was originally an alcoholic person.

At this time, Mifune said: "Tetsuken, are you thinking of drinking again?"

"Ah, Mifune-sensei, I haven\'t drank for a long time. So how can I not drink with Gintoki when he is here? Mifune-sensei, can you let it go this time?"

Tetsuken looked at Mifune with expectant look, looking forward to Mifune\'s reply.

After becoming Mifune\'s student, Mifune has been preaching about drinking to him.

Drinking will make the sword dull, so Mifune prohibits Tetsuken from drinking.

But it is hard for Tetsuken to stop drinking.

After all, it is really uncomfortable for him to not drink alcohol.

Therefore, Tetsuken will always hide and secretly drink a little.

Every time he was discovered by Mifune, he will always have preached by Mifune.

So, when it comes to this, Tetsuken still had a lingering fear in the matter.

Mifune looked at Tetsuken\'s expectant expression, and his heart softened. After all, Mifune really like his student and favored him.

"Well, only this once, there is no next time. Within a month, if I found out that you were drinking, you will be punished." Mifune scolded with a smile. Tetsuken shrank his neck when he heard this, feeling a little frightened.

However, hearing Mifune has agreed, Tetsuken was naturally extremely happy.

Tetsuken then said: "Thank you Mifune-sensei!"

Then, Tetsuken grabbed Kakashi\'s neck and said, "Gintoki, let\'s go get some good drink!"

Kakashi was helpless, \'This guy is still the same.\' Tetsuken\'s action makes Kakashi couldn\'t help but quite miss the time when he is in the Land of Iron eight years ago.

"Mifune-san, then I will leave first," Kakashi said.

Mifune nodded and said: "Go, and please help me look after Tetsuken and make him drink less."

Before Kakashi could answer, he was pulled out by Tetsuken.

Seeing this, Mifune shook his head, and murmured: "That Tetsuken sure is enthusiastic."

Iron House, the most famous restaurant in Land of Iron.

Tetsuken directly booked a private room inside, and then walked in with Kakashi.

The two sat down in the private room. Tetsuken looked at the man who is more mature than eight years ago, and for a moment, he felt a little nostalgic.

"Gintoki, long time no see." Tetsuken said again, but his tone is a little different from before.

Kakashi smiled when he heard this, and said, "What? Miss me a lot?"

"You are still the same as before, still likes making jokes. I am not as free as you now." Tetsuken said with emotion.

"Oh, I didn\'t expect that Hokubu Tetsuken would have such a day." Kakashi teased.

"I am really envious of my former days. Since the Hokubu Clan joined the Land of Iron, I have been dealing with both the clan and the Land of Iron. I am really tired."

"Why? Hasn\'t the Hokubu Clan been fully integrated into the Land of Iron?" Kakashi wondered.

"Accurately speaking, it\'s only most of them. There is still a small part of the clan that is still stubborn, always wanting to cause trouble." Tetsuken said helplessly.

"Second elder lineage?" Kakashi asked.

Tetsuken was taken aback, and said, "How did you know?"

"I heard Osuke-san say about it before. He also said that you are from that second elder lineage," Kakashi said.

Tetsuken sighed when he heard this and said: "Yes, the second elder is my Grandfather, but I really have nothing to do with him."

"What does he want to do?"

"It\'s nothing more than wanting the authority of the Land of Iron. Even with his old age, he is still so ambitious." Tetsuken said helplessly.

"Does Mifune-san know?" Kakashi asked.

"He knew, but he didn\'t care about it. He said that it is good for a clan to have ambitions as it also helps the Land of Iron," Tetsuken said.

Kakashi nodded. As a leader, he can\'t blindly suppress the forces underneath them, but had to balance them and let them develop, so that his country could become stronger.

Of course, if second elder\'s ambition swells to the point of overthrowing Mifune, then he would suppress it.

"You are really unlucky." Kakashi said sympathetically.

"Yeah, I can only help balance the both sides now, otherwise, conflict would be inevitable."

At this time, the door opened and the waiter put the sake on the table.

"Well, Gintoki, let\'s not talk about this, let\'s drink!"

Tetsuken said. He then picked up the sake and poured into his glass and drank it. After drinking it, he showed happy expression.

"Ah! It\'s a really good sake. I haven\'t drank it for a long time. What a lost." Tetsuken sighed again.

Kakashi smiled and also had a drink.

The two talked and laughed, and soon drank dozens of bottles of sake.

"It\'s really enjoyable!" Tetsuken said with a smile.

"Come on, give us more sake!" Tetsuken shouted.

The waiter said: "Tetsuken-sama, Mifune-sama has told me that these are all you can have, and I can\'t give you more."

Hearing this, Tetsuken was taken aback, "Mifune-sensei really orders you about this?"

"Yes, Tetsuken-sama."

Hearing this, Tetsuken\'s expression instantly turned into a disappointed expression.

Kakashi smiled when he saw this and said: "Well, It\'s not good for us to drink too much today. After all, we have to fight tomorrow, so let\'s continue next time."

"Well, we can only postpone it for now. When we finish our battle, we will have another drink!" orders said excitedly.

Kakashi smiled and said: "Well, only if you are able to convince Mifune-san to agree."

Tetsuken once again showed disappointed expression when he heard Kakashi\'s words.
