"What? Yeah, of course." Maybe it wasn't an of course. Nobunaga's startled by the formal universal education in the future that still somehow lacks in history. Imagine not knowing that Amerigo Vespucci circled the continents even though the country was named after him. That's definitely one thing Nobunaga would fix. "Portuguese landed accidentally on our shores bringing their guns with them.

"Akechi is my left hand. He designed this personally for the whole army, and it just rolled off the forges six months ago my time. He also designed and oversaw production of my castle. He's a genius." So. So proud. "And a perfect shot. 100 shots. 100 perfect hits. My best is only ever 95%. I get too impatient."
