Ninja Ice House

It was an early spring night in the Land of Fire, and it was still so cold that people shivered.

After working for most of the day, the exhausted daimyo had already gone to bed. The successor prince, Liangzhong, Princess Liuli and others also fell asleep due to fatigue.

Kosugi Fusui was worried about the surrounding security and couldn't sleep. He went to the terrace at the top of the castle tower and looked at the capital city below.

The essence of the ninja world gathers together, and its prosperity is even slightly more than that of Konoha Village. Some clues of the future urban scene of feasting and feasting have already been revealed.

The nearby palace city is not as lively as the outer city. The antique city walls are dark red, and the simple palace lanterns are not very bright. Even lanterns are used for lighting in many places. The burning braziers in the courtyard are still scattered with waves of ink.

Fresh fragrance.

It is backward and backward, but it reveals a sense of high-end that is not ordinary. At first glance, it is a noble person's expense. If nothing else, the oil lamp hanging on the wall does not use kerosene, but has no smoke and dust, and does not hurt the eyes.

of whale oil, consumed in one night, is equivalent to the monthly expenses of a family of three.

"well!"

With a sigh, Gushan Bu Shui shook his head slightly.

I had the intention to recite a poem, satirizing the nobles' arrogant and luxurious style but disdain for the poor. After thinking about my own position, I had to give up.

While I was blowing the cold wind to wake myself up, there was a sound of heavy footsteps behind me.

Although it was different from usual, Fusugi Bushui could tell who it was by his cadence. When he turned around, he saw his old father, Fusugi Masaki, walking out of the shadows.

"Huh?"

The young governor, who was about to say hello, was surprised to find that his father, who usually wore a loose and elegant gown, was actually dressed in military uniform with a long sword hanging on his waist.

"It's strange? A true nobleman's son is not a good-for-nothing, and it's not normal for him to be powerless. You all know that you need to learn ninjutsu to protect yourself, and others are not stupid either..."

It is true that there are real dandies who are good at people, eat, drink, whore, gamble, cheat and kidnap, and are uneducated and have no skills, but they are a minority. The reason why people have this impression of aristocrats is because the trash in the aristocrats can't do anything.

, they can do stupid things like bullying men and dominating women. It is precisely because their sense of existence is so high that the public misunderstands the real aristocratic elites.

In fact, if you think about it, you will understand. If you don’t have the ability, how can you secure your position as a master?

The crowd is not all good men and women, there are many bad people among them!

"You look a bit tough. I haven't studied and practiced hard for twenty years, but I still can't do it well."

Seeing his old father perform the Iai Slash skillfully and putting the sword into its sheath without looking back, Gu Shan Bu Shui understood clearly.

Amateurs can't do these simple actions. If they don't know how to do it, they will mess around. Not only will they not be able to kill the enemy, but they will also easily injure themselves.

"When I saw you dancing with a sword before, I thought you were just a showman."

"Your father and I used to be swordsmen who drew their swords to help when encountering difficulties. We also had the courage to travel to the ends of the world with our swords. During that time, we lived very happily. Unfortunately, we are not just ordinary people with no worries after all. We have a large family to support.

"

People who should be in power are not in power, which is the source of chaos. After enjoying the benefits brought by family protection, they naturally have to bear corresponding responsibilities.

"Although I had some regrets in the first half of my life, I was quite satisfied. I hope you can look back with a clear conscience in the future."

"Um."

The old father has some ability to protect himself and can also reduce the burden of defense.

While the two were talking, another strong figure approached. The person knelt on one knee and reported respectfully.

"Lord, everything is ready."

"That's right! It seems that Kazuma can't wait any longer. You, Nanwu, Xidu, and Dongmao will act according to the plan..."

Kosugi Masaki ordered very seriously,

"Rebellion must die."

"Yanhu and Dilu have not clearly taken sides yet. Although they are leaning towards us, they must be on guard."

"Everyone must be responsible for what they do, even Sarutobi Asuma is no exception."

"Understood."

Beizi, one of the four Lei Dun people, left quickly.

Soon after, Gu Shanbu Shui, who was sitting high up, saw the dots of lights below suddenly and strangely begin to move.

"here we go."

After much thought, Gusugi Bosui still couldn't fully guess the logic of Kazuma's actions.

It seems reasonable to be able to find some reasons, but to assassinate a daimyo, another obedient daimyo must be established, otherwise, it will be of no benefit to what Kazuma wants to do.

Even if you don't like the crown prince, you still have to have an alternative target.

Until now, Gushan Bushui has not waited for Hema to persuade him to "do big things".

There were only so many successors to the daimyo, and Yoshigege was too immature to convince the public. Apart from that, the only two left were Princess Ruri and Kosugi Bosui.

"Is there really no news from my mother's side?"

What Kosugi Fusui really wanted to ask was whether his mother was secretly cooperating with Kazuma.

Gushan Zhengcheng stepped forward, patted his son on the shoulder, and said slowly:

"You are blind. On the Genji side, only Qingfu and Liangzhong and his son are left. On the surface, the Taira family only has your mother and you, but..."

On the surface?

Gu Shan Bu Shui's heart was shocked and he immediately reacted.

"Cousin Zhiji?"

The previous generation of the Gushan family clearly had no heirs, so why did Princess Liuli inherit the position of head of the Gushan family?

Just because the previous generation of young governor was an innocent guy who betrayed his class, he was labeled as mentally ill and disappeared mysteriously.

No one mentioned him again, and many people thought he was dead, but in fact, this noble son, who was almost taboo in the Fire Country, had been sheltered and lived incognito in a mysterious place.

Precisely because his sense of existence was so weak, even Gu Shan Bu Shui didn't know how his cousin was doing now, so he unconsciously ignored it.

If it is true, this person is also a direct descendant of the Furusugi family, and he naturally has the right to inherit the daimyo.

But……

"No, how could anyone in the Fire Country support him? Except for extreme guys like Kazuma, no one would even think of him..."

I don’t even remember Gushan Bushui, a close relative, let alone the others.

The old father, Masaki Kosugi, glanced at his son and asked leisurely:

"Really? Even if you don't agree with the ideal of discipline, it doesn't affect someone acting under his banner!"

yes!

Gu Shan Bu Shui is speechless.

Freedom, how many crimes have been committed in your name!

Of course, freedom can also be replaced by other seemingly noble names, such as democracy, equality, human rights and even God.

In the French Revolution leading to the Republic, the guillotine rose and fell, from kings to ants, and heads rolled in, making the guillotine a historical landmark.

This has always been the case at home and abroad, and how can the ninja world be an exception?

"Cousin Zhiji, what does he think?"

If you are being coerced by someone, of course you have to try your best to save it, but if you really collude with Kazuma, it will be difficult to handle.

"It seems that he was innocently involved. I arranged for someone to watch. Kazuma should also understand that it is useless to ask for discipline first. It is just a cover. As long as he controls the palace and has the right to speak, shouldn't he let him say it?

When the time comes, there will naturally be people who are unwilling to be left alone to support me."

"No matter how great the hope is, whether it can be achieved or not, we have to do it first before deciding?"

Gu Shan Bu Shui smiled bitterly.

Many miracles are often accomplished by this desperate and reckless move.

There are too few cards in Hema's hand, so it probably won't work, but what if it happens?

Suddenly, Gu Shan Bu Shui suddenly thought of something.

In the original timeline, the father-son relationship between Kazuma and Sora was very indifferent. The guardian ninja were in internal strife, and nothing happened to Kong. Even though Kazuma faked his death and escaped, and used the nine-tailed chakra in Kong's body to become a demon, they still could not reconcile.

It's different now.

The pseudo-Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki can't do anything to Konoha Village, but can it deal with the Daimyo?

"Father, you are in charge of the overall situation. I have a place that I must go to see."

In the darkness below, a little firelight was already rising. It was a test from the outside to disturb the morale of the troops. The enemy also realized that it must speed up.

"Go ahead, protect yourself, and don't force yourself. Even if Hema's coup succeeds, our Gushan family is not afraid. At worst, there will be a civil war and we will have a winner."

Back then, when Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara forced Furugi to bow his head, there were many people who were unconvinced. After experiencing the accident of the merger of the two clans, there were many old people who were still alive. More than fifty years were not enough.

Smooth out all differences.

Gu Shan Bu Shui jumped down, and when he had time, he turned back and waved his hand before disappearing into the lush dense forest.

Ten minutes later, the sound of swords clashing could be heard in the palace, and barrier curtain walls were raised to protect the key figures.

At the outer sentry tower, Sarutobi Asuma and Chiriku led four people from the Thunderbolts to stop the five rebels headed by Kazuma.

"Why is Iwago missing?"

Sarutobi Asuma asked in great surprise,

"Is there some conspiracy?"

"That's how you guys are, suspicious. That guy Iwago looks tough, but he's so timid. He doesn't dare to go all out and fight for the future of the Fire Country."

"Are you worthy of talking about the future?"

The arrogant beard has not completely faded away, Feiyan is clenched in both hands, the Wind Escape Chakra blade is attached, and the extreme change in nature even makes the weapon tremble slightly.

The talents of the immortal clan on the land have also been unfolded, and the golden chakra arms are blocking the front.

The four Leidun people who were following orders from the rear also began to use combination ninjutsu to prepare for support.

Kazuma shook the tin staff in his hand and prepared to fight without showing any signs of weakness.

…

In a small courtyard outside the palace wall, the lights inside had long been extinguished. Yan Hu, who was walking in, hesitated for a while and was about to climb over the wall when he suddenly noticed a figure walking out of the shadows.

"Gushan...Young Governor?"

The person who came was none other than Gu Shanbu Shui, who had a face as deep as water. After looking at the expression on the other side, he said:

"Since you have not fallen into disgrace with Kazuma, don't do unnecessary things. Your small thoughts will not change your true colors, and the idea of ​​​​fishing in troubled waters is asking for death. Stand back, you are not willing to be with Chiriku and Sarutobi

Fight side by side with Asma, then go home and close the door to yourself, wait until dawn, leave here, don't let me see you again..."

Yanhutong narrowed his eyes and asked in a bad tone:

"Are you threatening me? The guardian nin is personally appointed by the daimyo. I'm afraid the young governor is not qualified to take away my title."

"It's so stupid to only remember the benefits and forget the due contributions. The guardian nin are the personal guards who protect the daimyo. Now that the daimyo is threatened, if you don't protect him and are still lingering here, you have lost your qualifications long ago. Come here

What's the point of trying to pick on a kid? Don't embarrass yourself anymore. After all, you are the annual winner of the 'King of Fighters', so save yourself some face!"

After several taunts, Bai Ji realized that his official career might really come to an end here.

but……

"Then... why did the young governor come here, to seize his rebellious son and threaten He Ma to surrender?"

"shallow."

No longer wasting time on the Gushan Bu Shui Seal, with the explosion of chakra, thick fog spread in all directions, and the excessively cold ice fog reduced visibility to the minimum.

[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]

Yanhu, whose whole body was cold, also wrapped himself in the Earth Escape Armor and assumed a defensive posture.

"I am a ninja who is proficient in earth escape and taijutsu. The young governor is good at water escape. I restrain him. Are you looking down on me by being so aggressive?"

"You come from a grassroots background and are quite good, but you have not escaped the shackles of your vision. Attribute restraint? Only when you are evenly matched can you have room to show your talents. It is the people who are powerful, not the skills..."

Before I finished speaking, I was about to take cover, and I felt that my lungs felt as if they were being eaten by thousands of ants. After coughing a few times, blood appeared on the palm of my hand covering my mouth. At the same time, my hands and feet were cold, my whole body was restless, and my thinking was a little uncomfortable.

It's clear.

"The Kirigakure Jutsu is...poisonous?"

"has a problem?"

"Aren't you afraid of accidentally hurting innocent people?"

"It would be best if we don't hurt nature, but that's not possible... I'm also very sad. I will compensate them afterwards."

After Jieyin cast his spirit, a ball of water that was more than a hundred degrees colder than ice enveloped the cover.

"I know everything about your abilities, but you know almost nothing about my true power. The outcome has already been decided."

Before the essential gap is widened, the amount of intelligence affects the outcome to a certain extent, or even life or death.

Controlled by the cold water prison, he soon fell into hypothermic shock and passed out under cover, and was escorted away by two guards in black.

Later, Gushan Bushui pushed open the door and walked in. He saw Sora, who was supposed to be asleep, taking an attack stance and aiming at the door.

"Are you awake? I thought there wasn't much movement and it shouldn't affect you."

"It's hard not to know the smell of malice, greed, killing and even disaster..."

"oh?"

The Kyuubi is indeed regarded as the embodiment of disaster, and its perception of malice is extraordinary. In the original timeline, White Zetsu, who had almost perfectly infiltrated, can still be distinguished by Uzumaki Naruto. It is normal for Sora to have such a perception.

"We have only met for a few months, and you won't forget it."

Gushan Bushui looked at his beast-shaped arms and the nearly unsuppressable Nine-tails Chakra, and couldn't help but become a little more cautious.

When I saw the fluctuation of mental power bursting out from one of his eyes, I felt happy again.

"Maybe, today is an opportunity..."
