Katsura returned to Choshu.

”I believe Choshu's situation can not internal conflict."
He patiently persuaded opponents.
Takasugi also came back to Choshu after the internal situation calm.
In this situation, Katsura and Takasugi power struggle happen likely.

However，there was no upward mobility in the Takasugi.
Katsura became a central figure naturally.
　
Of course，Takasugi was strongly conscious ”I'm upper class in Choshu samurai”.
Era of feudalism，Takasugi therefore did not need have upward mobility.
There is a its possibility.
(Definitely，Japan's feudalism was destroyed by him at first.)
　
Above all，Takasugi died of tuberculosis soon.
Maybe，he knew own death at this time.
　
One more thing.
Macher highest escaped unexpectedly with lover and came back unconcernedly.
Of course, it should be a problem.
　
"Takasugi is such a person.”
It seems like that ended only it.

After this，they were aimed alliance with Satsuma.
There was as a visit denial of Saigo but alliance talks continued.
There were also activitie of Sakamoto and Nakaoka.
　
”Satsuma strictly escort at Kyoto.”　
Finally Katsura’s secret visit to Satsuma mansion of Kyoto for concluding an alliance was determined.
　
For historical reasons，Katsura did reluctant to go to Kyoto at first.　
However，invasion of Tokugawa to choshu begin soon surely.
It was expected.
Katsura went to Kyoto.
