The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

As soon as the daimyo said these words, Hanzo immediately became energetic.

He realized that the previous incident was probably just a foreshadowing, and what came next was the daimyo's real purpose.

Just listen to the daimyo say slowly: "I hope that Lord Hanzo can agree to leave this group of guardian ninjas in the Daiming Mansion of the Kingdom of Water. Of course, I will help this group of guardian ninjas become the new high-level ninjas of the Kingdom of Water."

As a member of the Communist Party of China, what do you think, Lord Hanzo?"

Hanzo was silent.

Promise? How could you agree?

You must know that the guardian ninja team formed by the Shimada clan for the Daming Prefecture has a total of twenty ninjas, including three jounin.

That's it for the rest. If the three jounin are left in the Kingdom of Water, it will undoubtedly be extremely detrimental to the Shimada clan's return to the Kingdom of Fire to strive for hegemony.

However, Hanzo did not refuse.

The daimyo was asking for a lot of money, so naturally he had to sit down and pay back the money.

Just like Hanzo's earliest plan, it was to turn the future Kirigakure Village into his own stable ally.

To achieve this step, you need a little luck and enough layout.

The Shimada clan has also laid a lot of foreshadowings in the Kingdom of Water in recent years.

Minazuki Arashi's promise is one of them, and the marriage with the Terumi clan is also one of them.

But now, if we can get the support of Shui Daiming, then the certainty will be even higher.

"Lord Daimyo, I apologize for not agreeing to this request." Hanzo shook his head firmly, "Now there are three jounin among the guardian ninjas formed by our clan. Without these three, our clan will not be able to agree to this request when we return to the Land of Fire.

It is difficult to guarantee the safety of the family."

Hanzo refused firmly, but if you listen carefully, there is another meaning in it.

Three jounin is too many, what about two? Or simply, one?

For a moment, both sides understood what the other meant.

However, the daimyo did not relent first, but said: "I know that this matter is important, and there is no need to worry, Hanzo-dono. You might as well go back and discuss it with the elders of the clan."

Hanzo didn't expect that this kind of matter could be finalized in one discussion, so he nodded in agreement.

After the business talk was over, the daimyo arranged a banquet for Hanzo. This was also the practice of the daimyo mansion. There is a difference between aristocrats and ninjas.

Usually there was nothing particularly urgent, so Hanzo would just give the Daimyo this face.

Of course, when the Water Daimyo invited Hanzo to try the newly launched sake in the Water City, Hanzo sternly refused.

He had never drank much in his previous life, but he didn't want to end up in Daming Mansion.

After a boring banquet, Hanzo said goodbye directly to the water daimyo.

The water daimyo did not try to persuade Hanzo to stay, but asked Hanzo to go back and consider his proposal again.

This time, Hanzo was noncommittal.

After leaving the Daming Mansion, the same guardian ninja of the Shimada clan sent Hanzo away from the Water Capital.

At this time, the ninja's expression was a little complicated.

However, Hanzo was too preoccupied to notice his expression.

Halfway through, the ninja in front suddenly stopped.

Hanzo didn't react for a moment and almost bumped into him.

He was a little annoyed, but before he could speak, the guardian nin of the Shimada clan suddenly said: "Young clan leader, will you stay in the Kingdom of Water?"

Hanzo was stunned for a moment, then looked at him seriously and said, "Who told you this?"

Although Hanzo is young, he has considerable authority in the family.

This ninja had the courage to ask.

Now seeing Hanzo become serious, he suddenly said weakly: "Yes...it was said by those former subordinates of the Daimyo in the Guardian Ninja..."

"It's them……"

Hanzo frowned.

He was a little unclear whether these ninjas had heard something and said it without restraint, or whether someone had given them instructions.

The ninja became a little uneasy when he saw the appearance of his young clan leader.

Hanzo came back to his senses and saw that he looked uneasy, and suddenly felt a little funny.

Why are you trying to scare your own family by catching them?

So Hanzo became friendly and said warmly: "How many family ninjas are on duty now?"

The ninja still seemed a little nervous: "Yes...the ten elders and five brothers are on duty, and the remaining two elders and eleven brothers are resting."

Hanzo thought for a while and felt that it was almost done, and said: "I will give you half an hour to gather them all outside the Water Capital. I have something to ask you."

Hanzo gave up the idea of ​​returning directly to the base. The ninja's question suddenly reminded him that he wanted to ask these tribesmen what they thought.

However, this tribesman's brainstorming ability seems to be a bit strong.

He didn't know what he was thinking of, but he suddenly said: "Young Patriarch, this question is something I want to ask myself and has nothing to do with other brothers. Please punish me if you want."

Hanzo: "..."

He was a little dumbfounded. He didn't know what this tribesman was thinking, so he could only say helplessly: "You think too much. I don't want to punish you, but I just have something to ask."

"Really?" the silly sweet ninja tried.

"It's absolutely true." Hanzo tried his best to put on a kind face.

The ninja suddenly became happy: "Don't worry, young patriarch, I promise to complete the mission!"

After saying that, the figure disappeared.

Tuliu Hanzo stretched out Erkan's hand: "I...I haven't said where it is outside the city..."

But Hanzo immediately felt that it didn't matter anymore.

Although the Water City is not small, it is not that big compared to the walking distance of a ninja, and it is not you who is walking anyway.

With this thought in mind, Hanzo came outside the city, found a random tree and sat on it, waiting for the family's guardian ninjas.

Just as Hanzo expected, even though the reckless ninja forgot to ask Hanzo for his detailed location, these tribesmen still reached here within half an hour.

The leaders were the Sixth Elder and the Eleventh Elder, the other two elders responsible for guarding Shinobi.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Hanzo also jumped down from the tree and said slowly: "You are not allowed to tell any outsiders what I said today, do you understand?"

All the tribesmen were shocked in their hearts, and then they all said in unison: "Yes!"

"very good."

Hanzo nodded, and then told all the clan members present about the proposal the daimyo had just made.

After saying that, Hanzo pressed his hands to stop the commotion among the tribesmen and said: "Although the matter is of great importance and should be decided jointly by the top leaders of the family, I still want to ask you, those involved, what do you think?

What do you think?"

"Young patriarch, I won't stay!"

The first person to speak was the tribesman who took the risk. His face turned red and he said: "My home is in the Country of Fire. When I left, I swore an oath in front of my grandfather's grave. No matter what, I will come back."

."

"Yes, young patriarch..."

"Me too……"

Someone took the lead, and the tribesmen immediately started talking.

Most tribesmen are quite resistant to this proposal.

However, Hanzo still noticed that some of the clan members looked hesitant.

Hanzo immediately stopped the tribesmen from continuing to speak and said: "I will tell you this today. When you go back, you will also tell other tribesmen, the Sixth Elder..."

"My subordinate is here." The Sixth Elder stepped forward.

"The next time you send a letter home, ask each clan member to write a copy of their thoughts and send it to me.

Remember, it must be written by the tribesmen themselves, and no one is allowed to interfere or peep, do you hear me?"

Hanzo looked serious, obviously serious.

"Understood, young patriarch!"

Hanzo nodded and said: "Also, only the family ninjas know about this matter, and no one is allowed to disclose it to the outside world."

"yes!"
