After listening to Kamiyagawa's emphatic speech, Hoshiguma and Inoue felt a subtle shift in their feelings, yet their opinion of their leader rose instead of declined.
Although Hoshiguma leaned inwardly towards pacifism, being part of the Ghost Tribe, she couldn't help but hold a certain admiration for strength.
From her perspective, the power between the Takamagahara forces and those in the Iyo region was completely unbalanced, making fairness impossible between the two in the chaotic Tokoyo.
Yet Kamiyagawa did not choose to crush them with force or conquer and enslave the area through violence. Instead, he personally sat on the throne of the Imperial Tanuki Palace, listening to the leaders of the tanuki and fox clans, who were merely Arajin here.
This behavior, rather than being domineering, was rather magnanimous.
As for the Inoue Samurai, there was no need for further comments.
