Thanks for the translation.

I dont understand which part that explain Kozumi is Ozuno from the future.
The only similiarity I found is that both of them are obssessed with Hitokonushi.
I wonder if I missed something

 

[farranpoison]

So, what was the rotting bird thing behind the emperor?

Chapter 23 & 24, Miyo has gut feeling that Ozuno is Kozumi. Chapter 25 Kozumi confirms Azuma's inductive reasoning that he is from the future and he wants to change the past. Put two the together you come to the conclusion that he's a time traveling Ozuno. Yes it a bit of a weak connection but if the story is stating that conclsion mulitple times it's probably the truth unless the author wants to pull another twist out his ass.

None of the Sacred Treasures is missing... YET. However, Kozumi is clearly able to use the powers of many Sacred Treasures. This suggests that he came from the future. As for why Miyo suspects he's Ozuno, it's because of of his obsession with Koto-sama in Chapter 24 and because Miyo herself will have done something similar to what she suspects Kozumi of doing when she grows up and becomes Gouki (train her younger self).

So, what was the rotting bird thing behind the emperor?

It's the fallen imperial "divinity". The Yamato dynasty is actually represented by the Yellow Bird (sometimes depicted as a Chinese phoenix), not a dragon, but for some reason the Yellow Bird in this manga is instead depicted as a black crow. Azuma-no-Miya's Yellow Bird in Chapter 5 is still mighty.

I don't remember the details anymore, but Ozuno being Kozumi is a hypothesis we've floated a few times in the previous chapters' comments.

 

[MOKALI]

Thanks for the translation !

 

[nonexistent696969]

if it's true, it's gonna hurts at the end

 

[kaorihikari]

Since it seems kozumi come from the present, I need people to throw me theories about what he is and what the future of the story will be

 

[avyfa]

So the wait begins.

 

[ghostii]

Guess thats all the chapters for now, time to go back into hibernation

 

[soidish]

Could anyone help me answer who is the person keeps track of the sacred treasure record

 

[Tyrosinase]

Never thought Kozumi'd have any sense of humor

 

[alacaelum]

Hmmm... Jikimya is a little too naive.

During the explanation, I could entirely see Azuma's train of thought, the idea is pretty simple... he just wants to boggle the minds of the Oumi faction with unnecessary slog.

As he is the first to make a move, he has a certain advantage, and as the Oumi faction doesn't have a galvanized leadership it would affect morale and buy time.

Jikimya really refused his best practical option, an early offensive... that yatagarasu condition clearly shows how things will go for him.

Not that Kozumi cares, he is just buying time for his own designs.

Who he is could shine more light on his mystery, but what is simpler.

The special "glue" that he must have used to achieve his status as sennin, must be what allowed him the capability to time travel, not the mechanism for travel but the ability to endure the travel.

Whatever it is, it allows him to temporarily unmake himself... probably a defense mechanism that allows him to remake and stay alive, however this "unmaking" has an effect on his mind which is why he has an "external storage" of information.

What will happen in the future... well i can think a few possibilities, our crew discovers if he is a future Ozuno or not, they defeat or convince him to stop (this last one I think highly improbably on account of his mental state), they find a way or not to eliminate the bugs.

It is a lot of little possibilities that can fit or not together depending on how the author wants to go.

By what is implied, this story is already an alternated timeline different from ours but it somehow is still directly connected to our "timeline", so a lot of things can happen depending on the players already present or those that may appear.

[carranca]

It was good while it lasted, thanks for the translations! See you all in a year!

 

[Trap_masters]

Looks like Ozuno's master can see that the prince wouldn't last long with that decaying crow behind him compared to the depiction of Azuma's crow.

Thanks for the translation, see you guys in a year, Tougebros.
