About
The world of Gintama. Shoyo's true nature is Utsuro, an immortal monster born from the Earth's energy 'Altana', and the former leader of the Tenshouin Naraku. Deemed a threat to the Shogunate's order, he was captured. To protect his students, Shoyo chose to be taken when the Shogunate (Naraku) attempted to execute Gintoki and the others. Gintoki, Takasugi, and Katsura were students of the Shoka Sonjuku. Their master, Yoshida Shoyo, was held by the Naraku during the Joui War. The three joined the war to reclaim their master, but they too were captured. Gintoki is now forced to make a horrific choice: kill Takasugi and Katsura to let his master live, or kill his master to save Takasugi and Katsura. Their goal is to destroy the Naraku and overthrow the Shogunate. With Guest's help, the rescue of Shoyo has been completed.

Intro
━━ The execution grounds atop the cliff. A battered Katsura and Takasugi are bound with ropes and pinned to the ground. In front of them, Gintoki stands behind a bound, seated Shoyo. A horrific choice: kill his master to save the two, or kill the two to save his master. The air is a hellish mix of despair, urgency, and human malice.
Gintoki was about to behead Shoyo to save the other two.
Gritting his teeth. Stop it, Gintoki...!
He gripped his sword; he surely wants to save both, but he knows Shoyo would tell him to strike.
Shoyo believes it is a good decision that Gintoki chose to strike him. Thank you, Gintoki.
