The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

Hanzo is always somewhat dignified in the clan. After hearing Hanzo's words, the indignant elders calmed down a little and waited for the explanation of their clan leader.

Hanzo looked around and said slowly: "Calm down, everyone, the situation is not that bad...if the Uchiha brothers are not so stupid."

"Hahaha……"

As soon as Hanzo said this, the elders who were still very angry couldn't help laughing.

Hanzo waited for a while and continued: "As long as they are not stupid, they will not attack us before the Senju clan has fallen. The greater possibility is that they will use the ghost lamp after the Senju clan is out.

Huanyue, take action against us, after all..."

Hanzo smiled: "I'm afraid Madara Uchiha has no chance of defeating me."

What he said was quite rude, but no one present refuted it.

In the previous battle between the two, everyone knew that Uchiha Madara was defeated in embarrassment. Although they did not know that someone secretly helped Madara escape, this did not hinder the fact that Hanzo was stronger than Madara in the hearts of these elders.

"That's right."

At this time, the Great Elder suddenly said: "But Patriarch, where is Gui Deng Huanyue's strength after all? Even if there is no immediate emergency, we should make preparations in advance. Who should stop Gui Deng Huanyue at that time?

You know, nearly a year ago, he killed Mikiki Nagasumi head-on and seriously injured Kaguya Seigen, and ordinary ninjas cannot stop him."

As soon as the great elder finished speaking, the elders started whispering again. Obviously, no one could think of anyone who should stop Gui Lan Huanyue and stabilize the battle situation.

"How about you let me do it?"

Suddenly, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and a man walked in. It was Zhongnian who had not been seen for a long time.

"Father."

Hanzo was the first to stand up and salute.

"Lord Chongnian."

The other elders also stood up one after another.

Genji quickly gave up his seat to his father, who was sitting under Hanzo.

Zhongnian was not polite and simply sat down and said: "If that ghost lantern Huanyue intervenes in the war, I will be responsible for containing him, how about it?"

Although he has not participated in family affairs or wars for a long time, he still looks energetic in the new year.

Obviously, in his leisurely days, he did not relax and exercise, but kept in shape.

At Zhongnian's current age, it is a bit difficult to continue to make progress. After all, not everyone is Uncle Snake, but it is still possible to stay at the peak of his abilities.

However, the great elder still looked a little hesitant.

If I had said this a year ago, no one would have raised any objection.

But now... they are really not sure.

These elders are well aware of Gui Lan Huanyue's talent, especially since Gui Lan Huanyue has gone through many battles over the past year. No one can say what kind of progress Gui Lan Huanyue will make.

Seeing everyone hesitant to speak, Zhongnian didn't know what they were thinking, so he immediately laughed: "What are you thinking? Don't underestimate me, what's more, even if I lose to that

Can't the ghostly lantern and the moon still hold him back?"

After all the New Year's talk, no one had any reason to stop him.

What's more, now it seems that Chongnian is indeed the most suitable candidate.

Hanzo, who was sitting on it, sighed. He selfishly didn't want his father to fight, but as the clan leader, he didn't have much choice. He had to say: "So, do you have any objections?"

After a while, no one said anything, so Hanzo said: "Then this matter has been decided, everyone, let's break up the meeting."

…

On the way back, Hanzo, Genji and Chunen were naturally traveling together.

"Father, is it really okay?"

Hanzo said with some worry.

As a patriarch, he really had no reason to stop Chongnian, but as a son of man, he was extremely worried.

"Okay Hanzo." Chongnian laughed and said, "You don't look like the leader of our Shimada clan."

Hanzo hesitated to speak: "But..."

"Okay." Zhongnian said seriously: "I am a ninja."

Hanzo had to stop talking when he heard this, but he still couldn't hide the worry on his brows.

Seeing Hanzo in this state, Zhongnian said, "Let's bring Xun to our house for dinner today. Our family hasn't gotten together for a long time."

"Okay, father." Hanzo lowered his head and said.

That night, due to the arrival of Hanzo and Kaoru, Hitomi cooked a big meal for the first time in a long time, which made Shigenori and Genji, who had been living a simple life for a while, start to grab the food regardless of their image.

"Okay, okay, you two, you are really..." Hitomi couldn't help laughing when she saw the appearance of her husband and youngest son. Terumi Kaoru beside her also started to snicker, and the whole family was enjoying themselves.

After dinner, Genji went to wash the dishes, while Hanzo went to his mother and told her about Jungen's request to go to war.

But to Hanzo's surprise, after hearing this, Hitomi's face showed no worry, but a smile, saying: "If your father wants to go, just let him go... You don't really think that he plans to be so thorough."

Are you retired?"

Seeing Hanzo looking over, Hitomi continued: "I've also heard about the ghost lamp and the moon. If it were normal, that would be fine. But now, the family is facing difficulties. With your father's temperament, how can you stay at home with peace of mind?"

As she spoke, she said with some nostalgia: "Don't forget, our Shimada clan can develop from a second-rate family in the Land of Fire to where we are today. Your father has put in countless efforts, and..."

As she said that, she suddenly patted Hanzo on the shoulder and said, "I still have you, son."

Hanzo and his mother looked at each other for two seconds, and then a smile suddenly appeared on his face and he said: "I understand, mother, leave it to me."

Seeing that Hanzo had figured it out, Hitomi said no more, turned around and walked out of the room.

Hanzo also took Kaoru Terumi home with him.

…

"Have you been comforted?"

After Hanzo left, Hitomi also returned to the room.

When Chongnian saw his wife come in, he immediately smiled and asked.

Renmei rolled her eyes at him angrily: "You didn't cause these things, but you want me to deal with the aftermath."

"It's not like the able ones work harder." He was not angry even in his youth, and praised his wife with a smile.

"Stop doing this, you're so glib." Hitomi turned her head.

However, the smile on her face undoubtedly shows that this is what she wants.

"Speaking of which, Hanzo is indeed under a lot of pressure." Suddenly, she said with some distress.

Although her son has grown into an excellent ninja and a qualified clan leader, in Hitomi's eyes, Hanzo will always be her son. As a mother, who doesn't want her son to live a leisurely and comfortable life?

Hearing this, Zhongnian couldn't help but sigh, patted her shoulder and said: "Hanzo is much better than me, and leaving the family to him... is the best choice."

"I understand." Hitomi nodded slightly.

Selfishness is selfish, but she also understands the overall situation.

"Okay, go to sleep. I will practice more starting tomorrow." Chongnian whispered.

"Um……"
