The forest is quiet.

Humans cannot hear the words of plants.

Whether it is the words conveyed by the smell when the grass breaks, or the words that mushrooms use to talk about the weather.

All are hidden in the huge forest, becoming little secrets that only they know.

But when Hanami stood at the exit of the forest and said goodbye to it, the plants in the forest seemed to be unified in an instant, as if they had spirituality, and said goodbye in a way that ordinary people could hardly imagine.

The golden branches and leaves swayed with the autumn wind, and the yellow leaves fell with a rustling sound.

The mushrooms hidden in the soil popped up, and they came out together with the fruits that fell to the ground at some point.

Hanami listened to them talking, and the branches extending from his eyes seemed to echo.

The companions who had been together for a long time were finally leaving the autumn forest.

The new companion must take good care of Him.

Gintoki looked at the forest in amazement.

However, he had no idea what the gift from the forest represented.

He kept picking up apples and matsutake with his clothes, wishing he could pick them all up.

"The matsutake rolled out by itself, what is this, is it relief food from heaven? Not bad, matsutake is what we eat in autumn, bring some more matsutake!"

"Do you want to eat it?" Hanami helped to pick up matsutake, and he didn't force it after taking one.

"Huh? Why not eat it? Sorry, Gin-san is not the type who can be full by drinking northwest wind, he will be hungry if he doesn't eat." Although he didn't seem to starve to death even if he didn't eat it, the cursed power was really amazing.

"What's more, they have grown up with great effort, and if they are not eaten, it would be a waste of the fruit that has been hard to produce."

Gintoki wiped the apple with his clothes and simply stuffed it into his mouth.

Hanahi, who watched the fruits being eaten, disagreed: "They will be directly integrated into the soil and become the nutrients needed by the newly born plants."

"Don't underestimate humans. After all, humans are also a part of nature. What they eat is not gone. It will go through natural processes and become super nutritious feces and then be added to the soil."

That's the truth.

Hanahi nodded in understanding, which was considered as approval.

In the future, he will leave the encirclement of plants and stay with his kind.

Work hard for a new world where humans and cursed spirits can walk on the road.

In this process, it is also necessary to accept the lifestyles of other people of the same kind.

"Where are the other companions?"

"Who are you talking about?"

Gintoki and Hanahi looked at each other.

After a moment, Hanahi realized that he had misunderstood something and was shocked.

Obviously, he didn't expect that they would rely on the power of two cursed spirits to create a new world.

Seeing this, Gintoki quickly realized who Hanahi was talking about.

He put his hand on Hanami's shoulder and pointed out the direction with confidence. He comforted the new member who had just joined the new company and found that there were only two new members in the company, including him.

After all, Nozomi was not a member of the company. He was Party A, the client.

"Don't be so excited. The plan is long and arduous. There are advantages to having fewer people. You are the first three Pokémon. No matter how many generations of Pokémon are released later, the first thing people think of when they mention the wood element is the Myo-seed."

"Okay, look over there. If we move eastward, we can catch Squirtle... I mean, we can find new companions."

Hana thought it made sense.

Companions always have to be collected bit by bit. It is a kind of luck for him to be the first one.

However, Gintoki, who was seriously looking for new companions in the last second, was holding a bunch of matsutake mushrooms to make fire in the next second.

"What are you doing?"

"Matsutake mushrooms are best when they are fresh. Let's grill them and eat them while they are fresh."

Gintoki skillfully made a fire and lit the dead wood. He used the small wooden sticks he picked up to string the mushrooms together and placed them on both sides.

In a moment, a simple barbecue table was set up. Gintoki chewed an apple while waiting for the matsutake mushrooms to be roasted.

"It's great, such a high-class fragrance. Speaking of which, cursed spirits don't need to eat, right? I'm really embarrassed to let them all eat. I will taste it well."

"..."

Hana looked at the fire and estimated the distance to the forest.

It always felt a little bad.

"Gintoki, it's better to stay away." Hana took the wood with fire away.

"Don't worry, we'll leave after it's roasted." Gintoki raised his hand to grab the wood back.

"It will burn the forest here." Hana held on without giving in.

"No matter how strong the wind blows, it's impossible to blow the fire into the forest! I haven't even eaten the matsutake yet, how can I let you withdraw! What if I stop roasting it halfway and it becomes unpalatable? How are you going to compensate me?" Gintoki pulled the wood back with force.

"It won't become unpalatable--" Hanami's hand loosened.

"Ah." GintokiHis hand slipped and the wood fell out of his hand.

The wood fell beautifully on the branches.

The fire in the forest could not be blown away by the wind, and it burned smoothly on the trees.

Gintoki and Hanami were in a mess in the wind.

"It's better to roast it somewhere else."

"Wait, it's your fault no matter how you think about it! I told you not to grab it. Now I have to roast the matsutake in the forest. I was thinking about eating it next year!"

Gintoki threw the pot to Hanami decisively.

As a result, he really reflected on it, and his face was full of grief!

"Ahhh, it's all my fault, okay! You didn't mean to do it, so it's almost innocent! Sorry, next time I won't use the ingredients next to me for convenience, I will stay away! Don't show that sad expression, why should the cursed spirit be sad!"

Gintoki threw the matsutake and rushed into the forest sadly.

Touching the leaves on the ground is still wet.

Gintoki decisively hugged a full armful of leaves, stepped on the branches to get close to the fire, and smashed them heavily on the burning wood.

Fortunately, the fire for roasting matsutake was not strong, so after a few rounds, the fire could be covered with several layers of leaves.

Finally relieved, Gintoki secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Wiped the cold sweat oozing out with the back of his hand.

Regardless of the clothes stained by the leaves, the black hem of the clothes fluttered, and Gintoki jumped down from the branch with a normal expression.

It was really scary.

According to the concept of the cursed spirit, there is always an illusion that the parents were burned in front of him.

But strictly speaking, shouldn’t the real parents be humans and forests?

It is born through the joint efforts of both sides, but after the children are born, they only protect the forest father and completely ignore the mother who gave birth to them.

What a strange ethical concept.

"Ahem, Hanami...? Look, the fire is out." Can I eat matsutake?

"Gintoki, they, the forest said they forgive you."

Hanamu raised her hand and touched Gintoki's head, feeling a little disappointed.

Accidentally hurting them can be forgiven.

"It's okay if you don't apologize again, but next time you have to light a fire far away from the forest."

"I will definitely do it next time."

They gathered together to eat the matsutake mushrooms that were obviously not cooked, and moved towards the east together.
