Ryu Ga Gotoku Ishin!/Chapter 10

True Identities (, Shōtai) is the tenth chapter of Ryu Ga Gotoku Ishin!/Like a Dragon: Ishin!.
==Plot==
At the Rakunai docks, the body of Captain Inoue is found floating in the river, plunging the Shinsengumi into chaos. The Captains are convinced Shishi must be responsible and, in particular, Captains Okita and Harada decide to prowl the streets in search of any samurai suspected of being Shishi. Vice-Commander Hijikata refuses to allow this, but both men defy him and head out anyway, so Hijikata asks Todo and Ryoma to stop them. Ryoma tracks Okita to Mukurogai, where the latter accuses Ryoma of being Inoue's killer since, as it turns out, Inoue was Yoshida's assassin all along. After Ryoma defeats Okita in a fight, he says he did not kill Inoue, since he didn't know he was the assassin.
Commander Kondo arrives and confirms Inoue was the assassin, but insists that he did not act on his orders, rather he was paid to do so by the other "Sakamoto Ryoma". When Ryoma questions why Inoue did not kill him, since he'd seen him back in Tosa when he killed Yoshida and thus knew he was hunting him, Kondo reveals one of the Shinsengumi's most closely guarded secrets: Inoue, Okita and Nagakura are imposters, who've taken on the identities of former members of the Shinsengumi who betrayed the organization. Their true names are Serizawa Kamo, Hirayama Goro and Hirama Jusuke, respectively, and they assumed the traitors' identities to hide the betrayal, since it would have been too damaging to the nascent Shinsengumi's reputation. Kondo speculates Inoue did not kill him because he too understood what it meant to lead a double life to do what he thought was right.
Commander Kondo tells Ryoma and Okita that he's recently learned that the other "Sakamoto Ryoma" will be at a meeting in the Terada Inn that same night, so he's already sent Captain Todo and Takeda Kanryusai, Captain of the 5th Unit, to raid the place. Ryoma and Okita head over there to assist in the raid. Before the place is attacked, Ryoma warns Oryo, telling her to leave and take Otose with her. However, Oryo instead immediately alerts "Ryoma" about the oncoming attack, since she doesn't want to collaborate with the Shinsengumi. A battle ensues between the Shinsengumi and "Ryoma"'s men, resulting in the fake "Ryoma" escaping. Before Ryoma and Okita can pursue him, they're stopped by the arrival of Commander Sasaki Tadasaburo of the Mimawarigumi, another special police force made up of much higher-ranking nobles than the Shinsengumi. Commander Sasaki tells the Shinsengumi Captains that the shogunate has tasked the Mimawarigumi with capturing "Ryoma", so the Shinsengumi are not allowed to pursue him anymore.
After the battle, Ryoma confronts Oryo about why she warned "Ryoma" about the impending attack. At Otose's insistence, Oryo confesses that she'd been collaborating with the Shishi, since she needs money to take care of her sick mother and since she hates the shogunate for killing her father. She also admits that "Ryoma" had been paying her to spy on him. At this point, Ryoma reveals his true identity to the two women and tells them the "Ryoma" Oryo spoke with is an imposter.
