るろうに剣心 -明治剣客浪漫譚- 巻之二
Synopsis
It retells stories featured in the manga and anime series.
The novel is composed of two short stories, both already published in the manga: Yahiko's Fight and Black Hat.
In the first story, Yaahiko in order to protect the young Tsubame, has to face a group of dangerous outlaws. At first, he is defeated, but his samurai pride doesn't allow him to give up. So he faces those men again, ending up with a strategy that allows him to turn the advantage in his favor.
In the second story, the protagonists are Udou Jinne, a former Shinsengumi, and Kenshin. In order to force Himura to fight against him, Jinne kidnaps Kaoru and using Nikaido, a sort of hypnotic technique, he puts her in a condition of being incapable of breathing. This awakes Kenshin's fury, and the two samurai will have to fight a death match.
