Maybe a Fake Gintama

Chapter 360: No, It Should Be the Barber who Created the Mage!

"Why do you talk about life as if you are going on a hike?! Do you think that this kind of talk can open up a new era for you?!" Shinpachi shouted.

"But... It's just a little shorter, right? We just trimmed his hair, right? We can still do this! We can still pull together a mage!" Gintoki bit the bullet and retorted.

As he spoke, Gintoki walked toward Shige Shige while trembling with fear. At the same time, he rubbed his hands together and said apologetically, "E-Excuse me. Let me try to tie this."

As he spoke, Gintoki gathered up Shige Shige's scattered hair and gathered it into a ball. He gritted his teeth and forcefully pulled up the hair, desperately trying to reform the hair into a mage.

"This length is completely impossible, Gin-san! It's completely impossible!" Seeing that Shige Shige's head had been pulled up by Gintoki, Shinpachi hurriedly reminded him.

"No problem! I'm just not pulling hard enough!" Gintoki gritted his teeth and said. At the same time, because he felt that the strength was not enough, he put one foot on the back of Shige Shige's head and pulled Shige Shige's hair back with both hands, "A little longer... a little longer!"

"Hey! You're gonna pull it out! It's going to be pulled out! Pulling his hair out!" Shinpachi was in a bad mood.

"Don't give up!" Gintoki shouted, "If we give up, there will be no mage!"

Seeing that Shige Shige's face had already begun to change shape and tears were seeping out of the corners of his eyes, he just gritted his teeth and persisted, Shinpachi hurriedly reminded him, "Gin-san! The Shogun is tearing up! The Shogun is past his limit! He can't take any more!"

"AHHHH!!!" Gintoki shouted and pulled Shige Shige's hair back.

"Please stop!" Looking at Shige Shige who was gritting his teeth with tears in his eyes, Shinpachi was about to collapse.

"Hey, I've got a mage here!" Gintoki tightly clenched the hair that could barely be tied into a mage, so as not to let the hair fall out again, and at the same time reminded in a low voice, "Hurry up and tie it together! Tie it together while I'm holding it up!!"

...

Gintoki returned Shige Shige's chair to its original position. He held the back of the backrest behind Shige Shige and smiled in the mirror, "Okay, we're done."

Shinpachi retorted without hesitation, "No! He looks different, okay? His face is all stretched! Like he's got a stocking over his head!"

"Hey, he seems to like it. Isn't he smiling? Like he's from the Land of Smiles?" Gintoki braced himself and pretended to be indifferent.

"Like my head! It's just that his face has been pulled up!"

"Eh? Is he angry? Or is he laughing? I don't understand at all." Gintoki asked doubtfully, "I can't understand this expression at all."

"At least I can be sure that he is not laughing!" Shinpachi shouted, and then quickly pull down Shige Shige's chair again, and said, "I'm really sorry! We'll fix this right away!"

"This really can't do! Gin-san!" Shinpachi turned to look at Gintoki, and whispered, "If he goes back like this, we will definitely lose out head!"

However, just as he finished speaking, Shige Shige's hair broke free of the clips and both sides scattered again. At the same time, Shige Shige's expression returned to normal.

However, at that time, Shinpachi did not hesitate to pick up Shige Shige's hair and tied it back up.

...

"We have to think of a way, Gin-san," Shinpachi turned around and reminded, "As long as he's satisfied when he leaves, the rest doesn't matter! We just have to get past this situation! We can just throw together something that looks right and run for it..."

As he said that, Shinpachi suddenly thought of something. "The mage! That's right, the mage just now! We can force it onto his head and fool him, Gin-san!"

Hearing this, Kagura rushed to the door. However, just as she arrived at the door, she saw a golden retriever bite the mage that Gintoki had just thrown out and ran away.

"Shinpachi! Something bad happened-aru!" Kagura hurriedly replied, "A golden retriever took the mage away-aru!"

"What???"

"Anyway, I'm going to snatch it back. Take care of the rest-aru!" As she spoke, Kagura directly chased in the direction the dog had escaped to.

Shinpachi could not stop her and could only watch as Kagura disappeared from the door.

"Damn it! Why won't anything work What should we do?" Shinpachi muttered to himself.

At this moment, Gintoki's voice sounded, "Hey, Shinpachi, how about this?"

Looking at the hair in Gintoki's hand that could barely be called a mage, Shinpachi said in surprise, "Gin-san! That... that, how did you get it? That mage! Where did you find it?"

"I didn't find it. I made it," Gintoki replied.

"Eh?!"

"We didn't have one so I had to make one." Gintoki shrugged and replied disapprovingly.

"You said you made one?" Shinpachi murmured, and then sighed again, "So powerful! Gin-san! I see you in a new light! You're like that Waku Waku san!"

...

"We'll just glue it on and then..." Gintoki said as he placed the mage that had been coated with adhesive on Shige Shige's head. "Okay, all done."

"It's perfect, Gin-san!" Shinpachi praised, "This will work! This should be enough to foll the Shogun..."

As he spoke, Shinpachi suddenly discovered that the mage on Shige Shige's head was somewhat unnaturally expanding.

"Huh? After a closer look... Huh? Isn't this mage feel a little subtle?!" As he said that, Shinpachi slowly turned his head to look at Gintoki. He narrowed his eyes and asked with twitching lips, "Um, can I ask you something? What is this mage made of?"

"It was growing in the bushes next door." Gintoki pointed to a piece of mosaic on the lower half of Kondo's body, who was still sleeping.

Shinpachi, "..."

"What kind of bushes is that?!" Shinpachi angrily said, "What did you do? How can you put something so disgusting on the head of the most important man in this country?!"

"Well, he said that one who leads must understand how those below feel." Gintoki waved his hand and casually replied, "Ah, he seems to have said it, and he doesn't seem to have said it. But it doesn't matter."

"You don't even remember it yourself!" Shinpachi complained crazily, "And even if he said it, Below doesn't mean down there!"

"Don't worry about it, this kind of fluffy hair looks like a mage that has been slightly permed. It looks unexpectedly trendy," Gintoki replied. Then, he looked at Shige Shige, whose face was stretched, "See? The Shogun also likes it very much. Isn't he smiling?"

"Didn't I tell you long ago that he wasn't smiling?! And how long are you going to make Shogun's face stretched up like that?!" Shinpachi retorted, "And you don't need the trend you mentioned at all! Before you say that, it would be more convincing if you say that you like your natural wavy hair! Bastard!!"

Ignoring Shinpachi's retort, Gintoki propped up his chin, looked at Shige Shige, and said in a low voice, "Are you angry or happy? Can't you show it more clearly?"

Just after finishing speaking, Gintoki suddenly noticed that the complexion on Shige Shige's smooth forehead had rapidly deteriorated, and at the same time, some small pink pimples appears.

"Ah? Why does it seem like some pimples coming out?" Gintoki asked in confusion.

"Wait a minute!" Shinpachi quickly said. "I think he's been infected by something!"

Then, Shinpachi rushed forward and once again pull down Shige Shige's chair and patted off the pathogen on his head.

"I'm sorry! We'll fix it right away!" Shinpachi said apologetically. Then, he turned his head again and whispered to Gintoki, "This is no good, Gin-san! We have to use something different! Is there nothing better to use?"

"Even if you say that..." Gintoki crossed his arms over his chest with one hand pinching his chin while the other supported it. Suddenly, a light flashed in Gintoki's mind. He picked up the scissors and went to Katsura, who was still sleeping. At the same time, he crouched down, "I'll use Zura's hair down there then..."

"Why down there?!" Shinpachi was a little frantic, "Isn't it fine to use the hair on his head?"

"I'm trying to keep him from finding out," Gintoki explained.

"Using his pubes won't keep him from finding out!" Shinpachi shouted, "Anyway, Katsura-san's hair is very long, so it won't be discovered if you cut it a little, right?"

"That makes sense," Gintoki nodded, then got up and came in front of Katsura, and stretched out the scissors, "I'm sorry, Zura, lend me a little."

After saying that, Gintoki directly cut off Katsura's bangs.

"Why does it have to be the bangs?!" Shinpachi complained frantically, "There are so many hairs on the back side, why do you have to specially cut bangs?! It's too late now. You've limited any way to style his hair now! What are you going to do about those bangs?!"

"Does it looks weird 'cause there's a little left?!" Gintoki said as he trimmed Katsura's hair, "So I just need to cut his bangs off completely."

Snip Snip Snip...

After a few scissor cuts, Katsura's hairstyle is more than 99% similar to that of the protagonist of "Little Lord Fauntleroy".

"Is he supposed to be Little Lord Fauntleroy?!"

"I get it, I get it," Gintoki impatiently moved the scissors again, "It won't stand out if I shorten it all around."

Snip Snip Snip...

After several more scissor cuts, Katsura's new hairstyle successfully reached a 99% similarity with Wakame in Sazae-san.
