[Ishimaru maintains his position and shakes his head once more in response.]
That's not it! I know that I don't know everything about you. I would not presume that much!
[His fists tighten.]
But I still know you! It may have just been one night, but it was enough to forge a bond of brotherhood. Enough for me to see your sincerity as you said that! And enough to see through the way you are presenting yourself right now!
[Ishimaru closes his eyes, blinking back more tears, and he bows his head as some of his intensity deflates.]
I... I don't know what to believe... about these claims you are presenting... [He admits that much. With Mondo's insistence, Ishimaru is shaken and horrified by the idea that they may be true.]
...But if there's one thing that I truly know to be false, it's the way that you are presenting yourself! If you want to convince me... if you want me to believe any of this... I- I need you to hear the truth from the real you! [And now, his eyes open again, accompanied by a dramatic point.] Please, stop hiding behind your criminal image and speak sincerely!
