Pongoku Jidai{Warring States} (NSFW ANTHRO/HUMAN VIOLENCE)

@Cerebrate19  
Ebon nodded and poured them both a cup as well  
“Now onto business, though I’m sure you know what I’m going to ask of you”

@Tearval  
Oda:“we are to provide our troops so that the shogunate has an army again.”
 
Tokugawa: “mainly because after the takeda are out of the picture only the infamous god of war would be the alternative. except he would ithout so much as a twitch of an eyebrow slaughter all that hold blood ties to the previous empress.”

@Cerebrate19  
Ebon nodded to their words as he took a sip  
“I understand your concerns and that is an concern Tokugawa but if that was a concern of the late Empress, I would’ve backed the Bluebloods. It’s no surprise that they left the city a few days before you arrived”

@Tearval  
“yes, but even with that known and public stain on their image they are no less dangerous, my sources report that they too are gathering help… among the Ikko Ikki, meaning we cannot be sure about which monastery the next disruption will come from.”
 
Oda: “their supposed piety never stopped that sort from taking up arms against rulers.”

@Cerebrate19  
Ebon nodded and looked to them both.  
“I know that which is why I’m forcing a particular law in regards to Ikko Ikki.”  
Closing his eyes he took a drink and showed the the law, which once made official the next day would essentially make the Ikko Ikki traitors to the Shoguante and Royal court  
“The Empress’s views were taken into account but since they don’t claim allegiance to the Imperial court or any Daimyo this makes them a threat, one I want gone by any means necessary.”

@Tearval  
“with this, the order either disbands or will find itself destroyed… but the monasteries are well defended.”

@Cerebrate19  
“Yes, but that is why I’ve asked the two of you here. I want them gone by any means necessary”

@Tearval  
Oda: “i will muster my forces and be ready when the official announcement is made.”
 
Tokugawa: “Blueblood will declare the document, and you, illegitimate, pretend the princesses are your hostages, because honestly fair, and rally any “upstanding loyal citizens” against us… but i believe we can break a number of supports before it comes to battle.”

@Cerebrate19  
Ebon: Yes he’ll very well try that and since most of his supporters are in the south, he’ll head there to start his movement to oppose my regency. I’m sure Hanzo wouldn’t mind enlisting the aid of the other hives in order to remove him?”

@Tearval  
Tokugawa: “we believe that blueblood as an enemy is worth as mouch as others may be as allies. his death will not help you as much as one might think.”

@Cerebrate19  
Ebon smirked and chuckled at Tokugawa’s wisdom  
“Your reputation is well deserved. You are correct Blueblood will attract others like him, putting all our enemies in one spot.”

@Tearval  
“better than that, by him looking the fool any opposition looks better by default.”

@Cerebrate19  
“You are correct. So gentleman shall we eat?”  
Ebon smiled as the moon shone into the room
 
Outside the castle several figures cloaked in shadow quickly approached, quickly taking out a few of the guards

@Tearval  
Tokugawa: “we’d be glad t- huh?”
 
one of his own shinobi jsut materialized at his side whispering to him.
 
“but we should get ready to receive the uninvited guests first.”

@Cerebrate19  
Ebon frowned and picked up his sword as one of his shinobi arrived with the same message  
“Go make sure the girls are safe.”  
He ordered before an explosion boomed shaking the castle

@Tearval  
Oda was quick to call his retainers to his side, making his way to the royal chambers.
 
Tokugawa: “well, nothing to do but make sure no one leaves now.”

@Cerebrate19  
Ebon nodded and ordered the castle onto high alert as guards and soldiers scrambled about

@Tearval  
Oda had reached the chambers of the young sisters and his retainers opened the doors.

@Cerebrate19  
Ebon arrived soon after. Just as they arrived both sisters ran from their room crying.  
“Get back here you brats!”

@Tearval  
the retainers quickly surround the fillies in a protective manner.
 
“your attack failed, traitor, show yourself.”

@Cerebrate19  
A growl was heard from the room before the pop of a smoke bomb sounded.  
“After them!” Ebon yelled

@Tearval  
two changelings dive into the fray, their eyes undaunted by the smoke.
