Naruto: Hyuga with the Sword

Mifune on the ground seemed to sense something, raised his left hand and found it was shaking.

Hanzo turned around and saw Mifune kneeling on the ground, and a hoarse voice came from the mask.

"This is the poison of the salamander. My sickle is also coated with this poison. But don't worry, the pain will soon be replaced by paralysis, and you will die in two days."

"Whoosh…whoosh……"

Looking at Mifune who was bravely drawing his sword towards him, Hanzo felt a little sorry for him, so he said:

"Do you know why others are afraid of me, Hanzo? I will tell you this secret as a farewell gift."

Hanzo then began to explain his past experiences and showed Mifune the location of the poison sac in his abdomen.

After learning that Hanzo's breathing would poison the people around him, Mifune also raised his own questions.

"If that's the case, then why don't you take off your mask...when fighting?"

"Although this is beneficial to me, it also has risks. The purpose of the mask is to prevent poison. If my poison sac is cut during the battle, the poison will flow out and turn into poisonous gas. Even I, who is resistant to poison, will be poisoned and unable to move after inhaling it.

Although it is not fatal, it will give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage. Therefore, when competing with a master like you, I must not reveal any flaws.

It's a pity that your knife is too blunt.……"

Mifune looked down at the broken sword tightly held in his right hand. He had been using this sword for a long time, but he never expected that he would be told that his sword was not sharp enough.

"A person is like his sword... It seems... You are saying... I am incompetent, I really can't accept... dying like this……"

"……"

Hanzo looked at Mifune in silence for a while, then finally said

"I have something to tell you, death is not the end of a person……"

Mifune, who had closed his eyes and was waiting for death, opened his eyes again after hearing this.

"It was the time when he betrayed his beliefs, but it was hard to judge from appearances. Even if you died here, it didn't mean you were an incompetent"blunt sword".

Those warriors who were terrified by my name and fled, and lost their fighting spirit from the beginning, were truly incompetent.

But you didn't run away, and even stood up to protect your companions and drew your sword against me."

"call……"

"I will tell others that you are a true hero! As compensation for killing you, tell me your name!"

But Mifune, who was already unable to support himself and fell to the ground, did not say his name, but looked at Hanzo and said with difficulty

"Huh... Huh... I want to... trade my life... for a promise……"

"Speak"

"Don't... attack my fellow warriors... again……"

"……"

Mifune's words shocked Hanzo. It seemed that this man was not only a true hero, but also a true samurai!

So Hanzo squatted in front of Mifune, put down his weapon, and took out a bottle from his back.

"This is the antidote"

"call……"

Mifune, lying on the ground, didn't understand what Hanzo meant.

"I just said that it is difficult to judge whether a person has faith or not from the surface. Some things can only be seen clearly after fighting. I haven't met someone like you for a long time."

Hanzo pulled out the cork and poured the antidote into Mifune's mouth.

"I will let you go this time, although I am not sure whether this antidote can save your life."

After feeding the antidote, Hanzo picked up the sickle and stood up, looking down at Mifune on the ground and said

"You can imagine how difficult it is to carry out your beliefs."

Hanzang turned around halfway through his words. Because they were at a high point, they could see the scenery of the Iron Country.

"I also have my own belief, which is to bring true peace to this world.

Turning back to look at Mifune, Hanzo continued

"It is up to you to decide whether you will stick to your beliefs and die, or betray them and live in misery."

After Hanzo finished speaking, he turned and left without hesitation.

When he walked farther and farther away from Mifune, he stopped and muttered to himself.

"It seems that this country is not declaring neutrality just for self-protection. I believe that there are many people in this country who share the same belief as you.

Humph, but I will do what I say. I will let the entire Iron Country know that you are a true hero. Only people like you are qualified to lead a country into the future.

I will also promise you that I will not take action against this country again."

Hanzo saw another possible path to peace in Mifune, however, this did not apply to the Rain Country sandwiched between other major powers.

He resolutely adhered to the path he had decided on, and only by continuously expanding the territory could his voice be heard throughout the ninja world.

In this way, the Rain Country, no! Even the entire ninja world can usher in true peace.

At the same time, the Eyes, Nose, and Ears trio once again stepped into the Iron Country along the route they had taken last time.

Along the way, they did not witness the Iron Country falling into war.

Hyuga Shinichi, who had always opened his Byakugan to see far, could not help but feel surprised, thinking to himself, could it be that Hanzo had already left the Iron Country?

Just as they were about to continue to explore in depth, Hyuga Shinichi suddenly discovered that at the farthest distance he could see, there was a samurai lying on the ground with a broken sword in his hand.

Who is that? Mifune!

"Over here!"

Hinata Shinichi quickly reminded the two teammates beside him and rushed to the direction where Mifune was.

Soon, they came to Mifune who was already unconscious.

Inuzuka Mukuro recognized this man at a glance and turned to ask Hinata Shinichi

"Shinichi, is this the guy from the last patrol?"

""Yes."

Hinata nodded and carefully observed Mifune's situation with his eyes.

"It seems that he is in a coma because of excessive blood loss and poisoning. We have to take him to a nearby town and find someone with medical skills to treat him."

After that, Hinata Shinichi carried Mifune on his back without hesitation and hurried to the nearest town.

What puzzled the other two was that although Mifune had fallen into a coma, his right hand was still tightly holding the broken sword, as if it was the most important thing in his life.

They didn't know the reason, but Hinata Shinichi, who knew the original plot, knew that this was a manifestation of Mifune's firm belief after fighting with Hanzo.

Not long after Hinata Shinichi ran towards the town with Mifune on his back, a group of warriors wearing armor and holding weapons suddenly appeared in front of them and blocked their way.

Hinata Shinichi looked at the unconscious Mifune on his back and thought to himself that even if Mifune didn't need to wait for his arrival, he would still be taken back by these warriors for treatment.

"Who are you? Where do you want to take Mifune?"

Several samurai who knew Mifune drew their swords and pointed them at Shinichi Hyuga and his men.

Mukuro Inuzuka and Tomohiro Aburame were about to get ready for battle, but Shinichi Hyuga quickly called them to stop.

"Stop, stop, stop, we're not here to cause trouble or to fight"
