In this chaotic world, everyone is doing what they think is right.
Akechi Mitsuhide persistently pursued the new world in her heart. Even though she was pregnant with Rokko, she never forgot her original intention. Her body and her children were all tools in her hands to realize her ideals.
She wants to kill Oda Nobunaga, she wants to protect the saint's Shiba world and remove all obstacles on the road. She is the mastermind behind the old era, and she is the white glove that must be discarded.
But now is not the time to give up. She will work hard to survive, survive the darkest moments, usher in the dawn that belongs to the world of Spo, and accept her own destiny without any desire or regret.

Just when Oda Nobunaga went to Luo and Akechi Mitsuhide revealed his murderous intentions, Tokugawa Ieyasu also came to Sakai Port, which was like a Great Depression, and tried hard to make the right decision.
"What! It's now, do you still want to cooperate with Takada Harano?
Sorry, I was too rude."
After Ishikawa Mumasa finished speaking, he realized that his subconscious words were rude, and he quickly bowed to apologize to his master and asked for punishment.
Tokugawa Ieyasu waved his hand and didn't care.
"It's okay. Since we are discussing this matter with everyone, we should naturally speak openly and honestly. There is nothing to hide."
This time Tokugawa Ieyasu came to Sakai Port because he had received the grace of the saint and wanted to discuss with Takada Yono the opening of the Tokaido Trade Route and the merger into the Hokuriku Route Trade Stock.
Who would have known that before she arrived at Sakai Port, great changes had taken place in Sakai Port. The sweeping financial crisis had completely disrupted the Sibo food stamp system, making outsiders tremble with fear.
For this negotiation, Tokugawa Ieyasu brought over his family's important ministers such as Ishikawa Sumasa and Honda Taji who were good at diplomatic mediation and economic development.
The important ministers who originally supported cooperation with the Shiba family to reopen the Tokaido trade route, saw the horrific scene of the run on Shiba's earth warehouse, and couldn't help but retreat.
However, Tokugawa Ieyasu insisted on cooperating with Takada Harano.
In the troubled times of the Wu family, it is common to add insult to injury, but it is rare to offer help in times of need. The best way to protect yourself is to swing left and right and only look at the interests.
Seeing that there is a big problem with the Shiba family's food stamp system, it is reasonable for the Tokugawa family to change their ways. There is no need to tie up the Shiba family at this time.
However, Tokugawa Ieyasu could not agree with the thoughts of the important ministers. In her view, this crisis was a good opportunity given to the Tokugawa family by God.
Tokugawa Ieyasu glanced at the retainers sitting there. Except for Masashige Abe, who was responsible for protection, they were all knowledgeable people in the family's economy.
"Do you think this food stamp incident can destroy the Si Bo family?"
Ishikawa Tsumasa didn't speak anymore, but looked at Honda Duo several times. Honda thought for a long time, bowed and said.
"I originally didn't believe that a food stamp storm caused by business could severely damage the powerful Spo family.
But the current situation in Sakai Port is really bad. The Shiba Tokura is being run on, the Hokurikudo Trading Route stock has been reduced to waste paper, and the Shiba real estate market is full of selling but not buying.
Your Highness, you have also seen that several rivers around Sakai Port have been filled with food stamp investors who committed suicide by jumping into the river, and they are almost dry.
In the face of the terrible facts, it is difficult for me to say that the Sibo family must be safe and sound, and I beg your Highness to forgive me."
Tokugawa Ieyasu nodded and said.
"What Mr. Lao said is the truth. The unprecedented depression in Sakai Port shocked me, but I saw unprecedented huge opportunities in it.
When others are greedy, I am fearful. When others are fearful, I am greedy.
Before I came to Sakai Port, my biggest worry was how to lower the asking price of Takada Harano.
