Maybe a Fake Gintama - Chapter 110

– I Really Can’t Think of a Title That Just Fits!“Sadaharu, be good. It doesn’t hurt at all. Don’t shake around.” Kawaki looked at Sadaharu, who was tied up tightly and comforted him at the same time.

“Oh, okay, let’s go!” Kawaki made an OK gesture to the three helicopters on Sadaharu’s head.
“This stance is a bit too big!” Shinpachi retorted from the side.
“There’s no other way. With Sadaharu’s size, he will definitely cause great damage to the streets. Using a helicopter can reduce some damage. In addition, tell the naturally wavy hair which is drinking below. Don’t borrow the rebuilding fee from me this time.” As he spoke, Kawaki once again looked at Sadaharu, who had successfully risen into the air.
“Yey~ Sadaharu, we are flying~,” Kagura said while sitting on top of Sadaharu’s head.
“Woof!”
“Hey! Why did you go up too! It’s really dangerous!” Kawaki shouted.
“It doesn’t matter-aru. Sadaharu will be very obedient.” Kagura touched Sadaharu’s head, then took out sunglasses from somewhere and put it on, “Let’s go!”
…
Yoshiwara.
“Thank you so much. Fortunately, we have Kawaki-san’s help. Otherwise, I don’t know how serious the situation would be if we let Sadaharu stay in Kabukicho.”
After saying that, Shinpachi looked at Sadaharu and Kagura, who were playing in the open space of Yoshiwara with Yoshiwara’s girls.
“I didn’t expect Sadaharu to be unexpectedly popular.” Kawaki said with emotion, “Actually, it was also thanks to Tsukuyo’s Yoshiwara expansion plan. Otherwise, in the previous Yoshiwara, we would definitely not be able to find such a large space for Sadaharu.”
After saying that, Kawaki suddenly thought of something, “Remember to tell the naturally wavy hair that the rent for this piece of land is 100,000 per month. Remember to hand it over to me.”

“100,000!!”
“Don’t be so surprised. This is already the price of friendship among the price of friendship,” Kawaki said helplessly, “Do you think it’s easy to expand such a large area in an underground place like Yoshiwara? Just this project alone has already cost 300 million. I was going to build a large-scale specialized game store here.”
“No need! Why do you want to build a game store in Yoshiwara? In the end, isn’t it all for your own selfish desires?!” Shinpachi shouted and then glanced at the current Yoshiwara again, “But, it’s really different. Ever since Kawaki-san came to Yoshiwara, the current Yoshiwara is more like a small city! Large shopping squares, restaurants, many clothing stores, and even amusement parks! It’s simply unbelievable!”
Kawaki raised the corners of his mouth. Although he tried to hide it, his face was full of pride, “Of course! Unlike someone, I will work hard no matter what position! Don’t underestimate these stores. The combined GDP contributed by them has surpassed those of Yoshiwara’s girls.”
“Eh?! Is it that high?!”
“Of course!” Kawaki nodded and continued. “Although Yoshiwara earned a lot in the past, its business model was too simple! Although those women earned a lot of money, the money was in the hands of Boss Housen. The women at the bottom were still poor. The money gathered from the guests to the women and finally ended in Housen’s wallet. Not only were they single, but they lacked the passion for work! But it was different now!”
After a pause, Kawaki looked at the girls who were playing with Sadaharu, who was in the process of overgrowth, and said, “Now the system of personal income tax and distribution according to work is adopted! The girls only need to pay 5% to 10% of the personal income tax every month; the rest of the income is theirs! They are all high-income groups in the true sense now! In order to make their money flow again, various stores have been built!”
“This is incredible! I didn’t expect Kawaki-san to have such a business mind!” Shinpachi praised.
“Of course! Today’s Yoshiwara girls don’t just work in the entertainment store! They can work on various occasions! They can work on the Ferris wheel, in the bookstore, and even in the shopping plaza!”
“Work refers to…” Shinpachi adjusted his glasses and murmured.
“Of course, it’s the work of a courtesan!”
“Hey, I can’t even imagine it! I almost thought that Yoshiwara had changed! I didn’t expect that there was no change at all! It’s still the same as the original business of flesh and blood! It’s just a few new scenes added!” Shinpachi ridiculed.
“What nonsense are you saying? Isn’t that normal?” Kawaki looked at Shinpachi as if he was looking at an idiot, “They only know how to do those things in the first place. Even if they find new jobs for them, they won’t be able to learn them. These girls were sold when they were very young. Other than what they learned, they don’t know anything else.”

“That’s right. But for now, this is already the limit of what we can do for them. Of course, the girls who are unwilling to accept guests have also been properly settled.” Tsukuyo, who had just arrived, explained.
“That’s right, but that’s what I said. The current Yoshiwara girls are always smiling. Perhaps this is already the biggest change.” Shinpachi replied.
…
The downstairs of Yorozuya, Snack House.
“It’s finally settled. The reporters have gone back.” Gintoki let out a sigh of relief, “Then let’s have a drink to celebrate!”
“Drink my ass! Why do you look like you’ve solved the problem yourself! In the end, didn’t you still let Kawaki-kun wipe your butt?!” Otose’s saliva almost flew to Gintoki’s face.

“What about the little Sadaharu toys and snacks that were originally prepared! Why are you taking him away before I’ve ready to sell them!” Catherine shouted.
“Who allowed you to use Sadaharu’s image! Pay me the licensing fee, you bastard!” Gintoki shouted at Catherine.
“Before that, spit out the rent you owe! You bastard!” Catherine retorted without hesitation.
“Hey, that’s my line, right?” Otose shouted.
Just as the three of them were arguing, an unfamiliar woman’s voice interrupted the three of them.
“Excuse me, is the owner of the giant dog here?”
“Ah, this silver-haired naturally wavy hair is,” Otose said as she looked at the person.

“Eh? Looking for me? What’s the matter?” Gintoki turned around and saw two young women dressed in Miko clothes, “Are you cosplaying Kikyou?”
“No!” Ane retorted, “We are real Miko!”
Just as Gintoki was about to say something, he saw a dog that was so small that it was only the size of his palm run to him. It then excitedly rubbed its body to his shoes, “What is this?! Sadaharu?! Little Sadaharu?!”
“Ha, it’s really rare~ Little Inugami is actually close to people other than us.” Ane said casually, and then her tone changed, “Now formally introduce. Meeting Young Master for the first time, we are the beautiful Miko sisters, Ane and Mone.”
Mone, who was on the side, played a vertical flute.
“We are the ones who entrusted that giant dog with you.” Ane continued, “It’s our fault for turning into this situation. However, at least let us help it regain its original form. Before that, let me ask you something. Where is the giant dog now? If we don’t take care of it, something serious will happen!”
“Something serious will happen? Are you referring to its appetite?” Gintoki nodded, “That’s right. After all, it has become so big that it will eat more. Then, please pay a bit for the food expenses! Please! ”
“It’s not that!” Ane replied loudly, “In short, before it awakens its final form, we have to restore it to its original state! Otherwise…”
“Final form?” Gintoki was a little puzzled, “Can it continue to grow bigger?! Now that we can’t afford to feed it in this situation, if it gets bigger, wouldn’t it… ”
Thinking about how a bag of dog food was not enough to fill the gaps between Sadaharu’s teeth, Gintoki was completely panicked, “Then hurry up! If it gets bigger again, it won’t be nice! I’ll take you there! Are you sure there is a way to restore Sadaharu to his original size?!”
With that, Gintoki had already walked outside the door.
…
At the entrance of Yoshiwara.

“Hey, are you kidding? You put an Inugami in this place?!” Ane said, “Or are you just here to play? There is not much time left! If the Inugami is stimulated again, the consequences are unimaginable!”
“Don’t worry, even Bakufu does not dare to break in casually in this kind of place. It is the least eye-catching place to put it in.” Gintoki waved his hand very casually, then led Ane and the sister into Yoshiwara, “Speaking of which, what is Sadaharu’s final form? Will it become very big? Like a mountain? Finally, there is a little feeling of being the protagonist. Sure enough, the protagonist should be different.”
“It is not that kind!” Ane was really a little angry, and then slowly explained, “The hole that is known as the Ryuketsu is the spouting hole of all Earth chi, and the Inugami is the guardian of the largest hole in it – Koryumon.”
(TL note: Koryumon – Golden Dragon Gate; Ryuketsu – Dragon Hole)
“So it is like this. Sure enough, the reason why our family does not have hemorrhoids is Sadaharu? It seems that we really have to reward Sadaharu. It is really hard to protect the anus of all our family.” Gintoki nodded and said.
(Note: There is a wordplay on the similarity between Koryumon- golden dragon gate and Komon – anus/butt hole.)
“Can you not misinterpret my words! You bastard!” Ane cursed and then explained again, “We are the shrine Miko who guarded the Koryumon for generations. But the Amanto drove us away and built a Terminal over the Koryumon. We lost our jobs because of this, and we had no choice but to abandon the Inugami.”
“You abandoned your sacred Inugami?!”
“There’s no way! We don’t have any money!” Ane retorted loudly.
“But why did it suddenly become like that?” Gintoki asked.
“Inugami is a docile animal, but once he releases his strength, he will transform into a horrible Jyushin.” Meno, who followed Ane, explained.
(TL note: Inugami – Dog God; Jyushin – Beast God.)
