The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

Chapter 258 The request of the daimyo

When Hanzo and Terumi Kaoru hurried back to their family, it was already approaching evening.

After returning to the family, Kaoru Terumi went to the Intelligence Department, while Hanzo urgently called the elder to discuss the death of the daimyo.

"Clan leader, our plans must be advanced."

The great elder walked into the conference room and spoke hurriedly before Hanzo could speak.

Hanzo frowned when he heard this: "Why? Does Daming Mansion have any requirements?"

The great elder pulled up a chair and sat down, nodding to Hanzo: "That's right, clan leader, the previous Ninja Eagle summons couldn't be too detailed. In fact, the new daimyo hopes that we can unify the Ninja world of the Fire Country as soon as possible.

And fulfill the agreement with Daming Mansion.

And...according to the Daimyo official who contacted us, they only informed us of this request, and they didn't mention a word about the Senju and Uchiha clans."

After listening to the great elder's words, Hanzo couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

To be honest, Hanzo was a little confused by the new daimyo's request.

For the Daming Prefecture, does it make any difference if the Fire Nation ninja world is unified one month earlier or one month later?

"Great Elder, why do you think the daimyo made this request?"

After a while, Hanzo, who was unable to think clearly, spoke to the great elder.

The great elder hesitated for a moment, then said slowly: "I have a guess... Chief, do you still remember the time when you and Genji went to the City of Fire to meet Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara?

The prince's name has met with you once."

When the great elder mentioned this, Hanzo immediately remembered the scene that day.

At that time, the eldest brother was still indulging in wine and sex and ignoring government affairs, while Zong Quan, as the prince, secretly attracted many nobles from the Fire City...

"You mean, the daimyo is doing this because he wants to default on his debt with those nobles?"

Hanzo suddenly understood.

The great elder nodded and said: "Yes, clan leader, in addition to class interests, there are also personal interests that affect a person's behavior.

The daimyo was just a prince at first, and to be able to win over so many great nobles, he must have ceded and promised benefits.

But now, the prince is already a daimyo, and conflicts have arisen between him and the nobles. The daimyo obviously does not want to fulfill his original promise, but he is just a new daimyo with an unstable foundation, and he wants to make the nobles suffer the disadvantage of being dumb.

, he needs huge prestige, and only we can give him this prestige."

When the great elder said this, Hanzo completely understood.

When I and others reached an agreement with the eldest Daimyo, although the Ninja clan would receive actual benefits, on the surface, the Ninja Village recognized the status of the Daimyo Prefecture.

In other words, in name, the Ninja Village became an institution affiliated with the Kingdom of Fire.

This is definitely a huge gain for Damingfu.

In the past, although many ninja clans lived in the Land of Fire, if a certain ninja clan really wanted to leave, no one could control them.

It was against this background that the Shimada clan went to the Kingdom of Water and returned to the Kingdom of Fire, as well as the Uzumaki clan establishing their independent country some time ago.

Therefore, no matter how much benefit the Ninja Village actually receives, once the agreement between the Ninja Village and the Daiming Mansion begins to be implemented, it will be a real political achievement for the Daimyo.

To put it bluntly, the combined achievements of the elder Dai Ming who has ruled the Land of Fire Dai Ming Mansion for decades may not be comparable to him.

Therefore, the daimyo will definitely gain huge political prestige from it, and will also receive implicit support from the Ninja Village.

When the time comes, it will be easy to refuse the promises made by those nobles.

No matter how much those nobles hated him, it didn't help.

But then again...

These are the interests of the daimyo, what does they have to do with the Shimada clan?

The agreement between the two parties did not stipulate that the Shimada clan should cooperate with the Daming Mansion's actions.

Want to let the Shimada clan work for free without paying any benefits? How can such a good thing be possible?

"Didn't the Daimyo say anything else?"

Hanzo asked calmly.

Although he didn't say it clearly, how could a veteran like the Great Elder not understand what he meant.

He smiled faintly and said: "The officials of the Daming Mansion also said that there are some things that are not suitable to be mentioned in the letter. After the clan leader arrives in the City of Fire, the daimyo will personally entertain the clan leader."

This is the daimyo's hint that he will not let the Shimada clan work in vain.

Upon hearing this, Hanzo immediately nodded with satisfaction.

Since the daimyo is so wise, Hanzo doesn't mind giving him a little tug.

It's not a big deal to urge the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan to speed up their actions.

Presumably even if the two clans are a little strange, they will not refute Hanzo's face.

Thinking of this, Hanzo already made a decision in his heart.

"Great Elder, please send someone to inform the Uchiha and Senju clans and ask them to complete the work of contacting the ninja clan as soon as possible. I hope that the alliance meeting can be held in two weeks."

"Yes, patriarch."

The elder couldn't fault Hanzo's plan, so he simply agreed and left the conference room.

Hanzo also walked towards the conference room at the same time, planning to go to the Intelligence Department first to check on Kaoru's progress.

However, as soon as Hanzo walked out of the conference room, he was stopped by someone.

"Brother..."

The person who stopped him was Genji. At this time, Genji's eyes were quite tangled.

"What's the matter, Genji?"

Hanzo looked at his weird brother, a little surprised.

This was the first time he had seen Hanzo look like this, as if... like a young boy in love?

Wait, love?

"You're not in love, are you, Genji?" Hanzo couldn't help but wonder.

When Genji heard this, his cheeks suddenly turned red and he hesitated: "Brother...brother? You are...how did you know?"

"It really is……"

Hanzo laughed: "What you just told me, hahahahaha."

Hearing this, Genji didn't realize that he had been tricked by his elder brother.

Even though he was a little angry.

"Stop laughing now, I have something serious to tell you." Genji looked at Hanzo who was laughing non-stop and said angrily.

Hanzo saw Genji's face getting darker and darker. In order to prevent his brother from getting angry, he finally suppressed his smile and said to him: "This is not the place to talk. Go to my house first."

Half an hour later, in the mansion of the Shimada clan leader, Hanzo and Genji were sitting opposite each other in the living room.

"You mean, you fell in love with a girl from the Hinata family?!"

After hearing Genji's description, Hanzo was immediately surprised.

In his impression, even in the original time and space, only Hyuga Hinata's bloodline leaked out this time among the Hyuga clan, and the target was the true savior of the ninja world, the seventh Hokage Uzumaki Naruto.

But now, to be honest, it is not easy to get the Hyuga clan to agree to marriage outside the clan.

I am afraid that the Hyuga clan would rather give up the position of advisor elder promised to them by the Shimada clan than agree to this marriage.

but……

From Hanzo's perspective, this is an opportunity.

At the beginning, when wooing the Hyuga clan, Hanzo had a private agreement with the leader of the Hyuga clan at that time, Elder Akira Hyuga.

He once promised that he would help the branch family and curb the Hyuga clan's suppression of the branch family.

Hanzo has yet to fulfill this promise.

Moreover, Elder Hyuga Akira has been dead for a long time now.

Originally, Hanzo had an attitude of having nothing to do whether he fulfilled this promise or not.

But now, since Genji's incident happened, Hanzo suddenly had a plan in mind.

"Don't worry, Genji, this matter... I will help you find a solution."

Hanzo smiled and said to his younger brother in front of him: "You can just fall in love with your little girlfriend in peace and don't forget about the Ministry of Education."
