The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

Although Hei had not yet attacked, the sharp aura made Bai Lian unable to help but feel palpitations.

Faced with Hanzo's strong attempt to persuade him to stop the fight, Bai Lian had no choice but to make the most conscientious choice.

He slowly put down the hand that formed the seal, the water gradually calmed down, and the sharks disappeared one after another.

"Clan leader Zhongnian is extremely powerful, but he just occupies a favorable location. I admire him, I admire him."

At this time, Chongdian emerged from the water. Hearing Bai Lian's words, he couldn't help but said: "It is only a powerful ninja like Mr. Bai Lian who can take advantage of the geographical advantages to this extent. I intend to ask Mr. Bai Lian to be the guest of my Shimada clan. I don't know.

What do you think?"

Although he was a little embarrassed by Bai Lian, this person's strength was indeed incredible.

Such a strong man now has no one to belong to, so Zhongnian naturally wants to win over him.

When Bai Lian heard this, she immediately smiled and said: "I am only a mere ninja, and I have no intention of intervening in the battle of the ninja world. I am afraid I will disappoint the senior clan leader."

Zhongnian looked at Bailian carefully and saw that he really had no intention of joining the Shimada clan, so he had no choice but to say regretfully: "It seems that we have no chance."

The fight was over, and after a few polite words, Bai Lian said goodbye and left.

"Hanzo, do you think this person really just wants to compete with me?" After Bailian left, Zhongnian suddenly said to Hanzo.

Hanzo was startled, then shook his head and said: "Maybe there are factors in this aspect, but it is definitely not just that. But I don't know exactly why."

Zhongnian nodded when he heard this. He didn't believe that Bai Lian just wanted to fight him, but now that the information was limited, he couldn't guess the reason.

"In short, this person should not be our enemy for the time being. Let's go back first and then make long-term plans." Hyuga Kagahiko said.

"What Chief Jingyan said makes sense, let's continue on our way."

The three of them immediately continued on their way.

In fact, the reason why Bai Lian took the initiative to fight against Chong Nian was certainly not simple.

As the first Mizukage who will pacify the troubled times of the Water Kingdom in the future, how could he be a reckless man who only likes to fight?

Fighting against each other in the same year actually has profound meaning.

As a strong man who surpasses Jonin, even though he is a mere commander, he still wants to dominate the ninja world of the Land of Water.

The prerequisite for all this is to have people under your command.

After all, Bai Lian is not a monkey, so it is impossible for him to create countless younger brothers with just a handful of hair.

If you want to have people under your command, you need to use the power of the great ninja clan.

The fight with Chongnian is the first step of his plan.

If a person wants to be believed by others, he must have enough reputation. Even TV drug advertisements are known to pull the skin of an old palace doctor. Of course, Bai Lian also needs a piece of tiger skin as a springboard to make himself famous.

The target he originally chose was Ghost Lantern Yanyue.

Before the Shimada clan moved in, the Minazuki clan and the Oniden clan in the Kingdom of Water each had a strong man who surpassed the Jonin.

Minazuki Arashi possesses the Ice Release Blood Successor, and to be honest, he is relatively restrained by the Water Release Ninja.

Therefore, Ghost Lantern Yanyue naturally became his best choice.

But after the Shimada clan came to the Water Country, he changed his mind.

He has also heard of Shimada Shigenori's reputation. This man is known as the strongest man in the Fire Country. If he can use Shimada Shigenori's reputation as a stepping stone, he will definitely gain a higher reputation.

Of course, for the sake of safety, Bai Lian chose to fight Zhongnian on the sea. With his feet on the sea, he thought that he was not afraid of any ninja.

"The first step has been successfully completed, and the next step will continue as planned."

Bai Lian silently thought about it in her heart.

The previous fight between the two of them had made so much noise, naturally someone would have seen it.

I believe that soon, the five major ninja clans will get the news that "there is a mysterious water escape ninja and Shimada Shigenen fighting", and this is his purpose.

…

On the other side, after returning to the family, Zhongnian went directly to the family information to supplement Bai Lian's information.

"Unknown identity, unknown purpose, water escape ninja who surpasses Jonin, looks like..."

Hanzo, who wanted to go with his father, was suddenly stopped by Hitomi.

"Mom, what's going on? It's so mysterious." Hanzo said, looking at Hitomi who insisted on dragging him home.

Renmei's face was full of smiles at this time, and she said: "Son, mother is telling you something, and you must understand it."

Hanzo was even more puzzled when he heard this, and said with a mysterious face: "You said it, I am listening."

"Well...your father and I arranged a marriage for you..."

"Hey, isn't it just a kiss...what? A marriage?!"

Hanzo's voice suddenly rose an octave higher.

Seeing Hanzo's reaction, Hitomi explained repeatedly: "Well, the other party is the princess of the Terumi clan, one year older than you, and also a beauty..."

Hitomi couldn't help but feel guilty as she spoke. In fact, the beauty of their couple depended on the intelligence. Now she could only hope that the intelligence officer's aesthetics would be the same as Hanzo's.

There is no way, everyone chooses a bride like this. Without seeing the real person, we have to judge based on the description of the intelligence officer.

Hanzo's face was complicated when he heard this, and he didn't know what he was feeling in his heart.

Unexpectedly, after traveling through time, even my wife was assigned a bag...

At the same time, he finally understood why Chongnianhui was so open-minded when negotiating with Shui Daiming.

If the marriage with the Terumi clan can be accomplished, the Shimada clan can gain an ally among the five major families of the Land of Water, and then the other four major ninja clans will have nothing to fear.

The four major ninja clans must have the same idea. Once they retreat, the Shimada clan can use their profits to win over the Mikigaki clan, which also suffered a lot of losses.

With these two clans as their wings, the Shimada clan can sit firmly on Diaoyutai.

Moreover, if the water daimyo requests it in the future, the Shimada clan can also participate in the war in the name of aiding allies, without having to directly intervene in the grievances between the ninja clans of the Land of Water.

Although there seems to be no difference, compared with direct intervention, the second line's delayed participation will receive much less hostility, more methods can be used, and the strategic room for maneuver will be greatly increased, which can be said to have many benefits.

After thinking about this, Hanzo didn't feel angry at all. After all, he hadn't met a girl who made his heart beat so far. If he was to be in an arranged marriage, he wouldn't be unable to accept it.

Of course, the premise is that... the other party must at least be tall enough to be worthy of the audience... (Author: Don’t worry, I won’t give readers a chance to send you blades┐(‘~`;)┌)

Thinking of the appearance of Terumi Mei, the Fifth Mizukage who was born in the Terumi clan in later generations, he felt somewhat comforted.

"I think there should be some beauty genes in their clan..."

After preparing himself mentally, Hanzo slowly said: "Since you and dad have already decided, let's do this. After all, we can also take the opportunity to win over the Terumi clan. By the way, does Terumiei agree?"

Seeing that Hanzo had calmed down, Hitomi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The envoy has returned and said that Chief Terumi will come to discuss with us in person soon. If there are no surprises, it should be OK."

Hanzo couldn't help but laugh at himself when he heard this: "It seems that I will have to change my name to father-in-law later."
