Uchiha's Counterattack

Chapter 169 Uchiha and Daimyo ①

Boom boom boom!
It was around three o'clock in the morning, and the sky was still dark.

There was a sudden knock on the door outside the house, and Kuroizumi and Youemon in the room almost stayed up all the time. Before the second knock on the door sounded outside, the two of them had packed up their equipment and rushed to the living room. Kuroizumi's Both the Sakura Armor and the Fire Sword are out, fully armed.

"who is it?"

Uemon held Kunai tightly with one hand and approached the door, quietly observed through the gap with Sharingan, and found that the person outside was wearing a crane hat and wearing white clothes, and he was an internal servant of the Daimyo Mansion.The so-called servants are officials who specialize in serving the daimyo, take care of the daimyo's daily life, and have the right to enter and leave the daimyo's inner palace.

"My lords, my name is Murashita Masata, and I am the servant of the daimyo's inner palace. I have ordered you to take the two of you to the inner palace immediately." Although the name of Murashita Shota sounds nice, it is actually a woman who is nearly thirty years old. grown man, his face was pale and sweaty, his expression tense and unnatural.

All this fell into Eemon's eyes, but Eemon didn't think that the matter between him and Kuroizumi had been exposed. To be precise, they did almost nothing except detain an officer, and there was nothing to be guilty of.Thinking of this, Emon directly opened the door.

The door opened with a creak, and Eemon walked out of the house and saw the official servant saying:
"What's going on in such a hurry?"

"Don't ask any more questions, my lords. Come with me quickly. If it's late, I'm afraid it will be too late."

The servant's mouth was bubbling impatiently, he looked as if he was about to collapse from anxiety, and it was difficult to continue asking for a while.Uemon took a few careful glances at the servant, and there was no chakra reaction, just an ordinary person, and since he and Kuroizumi still had a clear conscience, they didn't think about it.

"wait!"

Youemon left the servant and turned back to the room. After closing the door, he found Kuroizumi and said, "Master Kuroizumi, something is wrong outside. The servant's eyes are full of fear. The servant of the majestic Daming Mansion For the internal officer to show such an expression, something must have happened."

"What is a servant?" Heiquan looked puzzled, she was not familiar with the official ranks of ordinary people.

"A servant is a service official of the daimyo inner government. Its status is equivalent to that of Uchiha's guardian ninja. It's just that the guardian uses force to protect the safety of Xia Nan. The servant is more similar to a servant who takes care of daily life, but it is also an official position. "

"Daimyo's personal servant?"

"you can say it this way."

Heiquan immediately understood the seriousness of the matter. The personal servant of the fire country daimyo rushed over to find the two of them, and his face was anxious and fearful. The nature of what happened must be very serious. Maybe the general's mansion rebelled?
"Master Heiquan, why don't you go and see the situation first?"

"meaning is?"

"If you leave now, no one can stop you, but if you leave, you don't know what happened. Whether this matter is related to Konoha, or whether it will involve Lord Xia Nan is unknown. And the most important thing is , we didn't do anything now, just ran away with a clean body, then something will happen if nothing happens."

"It's better to go and see what happened first, and then make plans according to the situation at the time. In addition, the Daming Mansion seems to be heavily guarded, but if you really want to run the entire country, no one can stop the kaleidoscope-level powerhouse, so let everything go It’s not too late to go after you figure it out.”

Kuroizumi nodded, what Eemon said was similar to what he thought in his heart.

"Then go and have a look first, there is still 10 billion and 5 million taels that I haven't got yet."

After the two reached an agreement, they went out directly.

When he got outside the door, he saw that the servant was about to go crazy. As soon as he saw Kuroizumi and Youemon coming out, he didn't even bother to say hello, and ran over to grab them and rushed out .

"Don't ask, my lords, His Royal Highness and Madam are already waiting for you!"

Kuroizumi and Youemon were somehow taken to run together.

After leaving the side hall, there are many high walls, and further forward is a tower where many nobles live.

However, the formerly bustling tower was silent.

The atmosphere of silence and death spread in the air, as if faintly, the shouts of killing could be heard from the outer palace.

The voice was so inaudible that if Heiquan hadn't listened carefully, he wouldn't have noticed it.But what is most concerning is that the servant who led the way seemed to have heard it, and his whole body trembled suddenly, as if he had been frightened.The speed of the footsteps is faster.

Heiquan realized that something was really wrong.

"Hurry up!"

On the road where the three of them were walking, they encountered several groups of warriors in a hurry.Different from the calm and casual patrols in the past, these warriors each had their long knives out of their sheaths, their armor was bloody, and there were obvious signs of chopping on the sturdy outer armor, and the white flags behind them were also blackened by thick smoke.

These few teams that seemed to have just experienced a fight caught the attention of Kuroizumi and Youemon, and the two looked at each other, feeling that things were serious.

"Leave them alone, support the South Gate immediately!"

The leading samurai knew the servant and roared without looking back, and the samurai behind him responded in unison, and everyone ran past the three of them with a murderous look.Their goal appears to be to support the troops at the South Gate, the heavily guarded outer gate of the Daming Mansion, where more than a hundred noble warriors and more than 600 soldiers are stationed.

Looking into the distance, the south of Daming Mansion was billowing with black smoke and burning into the sky.

Heiquan subconsciously glanced over with Sharingan, but found nothing. There was no chakra reaction from the black mist and the crowd. It seemed to be an ordinary fire incident.But judging from the performance of the warriors, it didn't look like a fire, but more like a mutiny.

Could it be that the general's mansion really rebelled?On the second day of their visit?
Kuroizumi and Youemon intentionally wanted to slow down to find out the news, but who knew that the servant kept urging him, and he seemed to be so impatient that he could only say "Hurry up, Mr. Daimyo and his wife are waiting!" It made Youemon so angry that he almost got to know the servant.

But Kuroizumi stopped Youemon, and she realized that this matter should have nothing to do with Daimyo, otherwise Daimyo would not be so eager to find them.There is a high probability that the matter is still on the General's Mansion and the issue of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas.

Heiquan generally has a guess. It is estimated that the General's Mansion found out yesterday that the daimyo was determined to pull Konoha and gave him the name and money. In this way, Shin Konoha will definitely be on the daimyo's side, and the General's Mansion can only decide. Before the dust settles, kill the daimyo first and then plant the blame on Xin Konoha.

Not long after Shinkonoha was established, the ninja loss rate was over 90%, the economy completely collapsed, and more than half of the village was destroyed.If it was replaced by other places, it would have been finished long ago, that is, more than 200 people from Uchiha and Xia Nan supported the venue. Although Jiraiya and Tsunade also returned in the end, Konoha Village is still fragile from the data alone Unbearable.

However, the General's Mansion seems to have overlooked how huge the difference in ninja's personal combat power is. Their memories and images of ninjas are still based on the attitude that they can do things with money, and their natural status is inferior to that of nobles.There is no real intuitive experience of the ninja's fighting power, which means they don't know how powerful the real shadow is.

　The branch line retracts, pulling back the main line.
