Konoha: Card Draw from the Ninja World

Chapter 204 The Competing Daimyo

Looking at the brand new scabbard, Uehara Shiro couldn't help but look stiff.

Trapped in self-doubt.

Am I overthinking it?

Maybe I really think too much.

Shiro Uehara pouted his chin, thinking about the clues of the lumpy dark cloud in the sky.

I don't even know when Shin Uehara left.

When I went out just now, if I hadn't changed the scabbard on a whim when I passed the ninja shop, then this lie might not be so easy to complete.

Shiro Uehara rolled his eyes in thought.

Uehara Shin felt that he was in an unexpectedly good mood today.

Although the whirlpool Xianghui caused a lot of farce, but today, she didn't hold back on those little things.

This can be regarded as a surprise.

When I was in the shopping street just now, Uehara Shin also found the merchant who installed the glass and asked them to send someone to the house tomorrow to measure the broken glass.

the other side.

At the junction of the country of Sichuan and the country of rain, there is a small village called Longping Village.

This is a village surrounded by mountains on both sides.

There is only a 1.5-meter-wide road in the middle, and dozens of houses, large and small, are located on the mountainside on both sides.

The entrances and exits on both sides can only accommodate two people in parallel.

In a house on the side of the road leading to the country of rain.

At this time, the daimyo of the Harakawa country, Takigawa Kintaro, looked down at his retainer Yanase Junpei with displeasure.

The people sitting around are all fat and pampered, obese people.

These people are the big names of small countries such as the country of grass, the country of tea, the country of fields, the country of swamps, and the country of craftsmen.

As for the daimyos of the Kingdom of Fang and the Kingdom of Frost, they had long since died in the coup.

Even the daimyo of the iron country, known as a neutral country, did not escape with his life.

Damn Ito Ryu, if he hadn't betrayed himself and overthrew his own country, he wouldn't end up hiding in this small village now.

Fortunately, when Takigawa Kintaro escaped, the samurai loyal to him resisted desperately, and he was able to escape to this carefully selected place with a large amount of property.

Otherwise, he can't afford to support those subordinates now.

Takigawa Kintaro said impatiently: "Junpei, what are you doing in such a hurry? Didn't you see that I was discussing things with other monarchs?"

Junpei Yanase lowered his forehead, and said anxiously: "Master Kintaro, recently the ninjas are looking for clues about those children."

"What?" Daimyo of the country of tea said in panic, "Didn't I tell you to keep things secret?"

"Look at your subordinates," the tea country daimyo pointed at Yanase Junpei, and looked at Takigawa Kintaro with a gloomy expression: "If this place is discovered..."

When the daimyo of the country of tea said this, he stopped talking.

The daimyos here know that once this place is discovered, their restoration plan may not be far from being exposed.

They still want to return to their own country, become daimyo again, and enjoy the glory and wealth.

I don't know if they underestimate the profession of ninja, or they have too high expectations of the character of their samurai.

In the eyes of those warriors, the plan they had planned to carry out secretly was too careful.

So much so that they didn't bother to hide their identities at all, but robbed them arrogantly and domineeringly.

This caused the villagers in those small villages to go to the big villages to find ninjas to issue tasks.

Because this does not belong to the task of assassination ranks, just now that the five major countries have undergone reforms, this kind of task is just within the acceptable range.

However, Junpei Yanase has a clear understanding of the strength of the five great powers.

After all, the ninja village in their country is basically a small ninja village. In the eyes of the five major countries, their so-called upper ninja can only barely compare with their lower ninja.

And it's not what it once was.

Junpei Yanase felt very helpless, but after all, he was a family that had served Kintaro Takigawa's clan for generations.

His father taught him to be loyal and to dedicate his life to the daimyo since he was a child, because their family has lived by the daimyo for generations.

Even if the name is wrong, they should not disobey, this is the ancestor's precept.

How could Takigawa Kintaro not know Yanase Junpei's loyalty, but the Daimyo of the country of tea is a figure no less than him.

And in terms of the number of subordinates, the daimyo of the country of tea brought a full 500 people to flee.

Unlike Takigawa Kintaro, who only brought about 400 people, if he hadn't had a few wandering ninjas behind him to support him.

Now who has the right to speak is still uncertain.

The daimyos of other small countries more or less brought one or two hundred people and some property.

Although doing business during this period has increased the wealth of these big names.

However, how can that little wealth be compared with a country.

However, this nearly 2000 warrior team really gave them a lot of confidence.

Looking at the retainer below who was desperately protecting him, Takigawa Kintaro looked like he was fighting for reason.

He reprimanded the daimyo of the country of tea, "Maybe your subordinates exposed the news?"

"My subordinates are faithful to my orders, unlike you..." The daimyo of the country of tea showed disdain, and the meaning in his words was fully exposed.

Now, the daimyos from other countries have changed the way they look at Kintaro Takigawa.

After all, this matter always needs to be taken by a bully, and Takigawa Kintaro is the biggest bully.

Because this guy is the most arrogant and the least talkative.

What's more, the daimyos who sit again are all people who have enjoyed top rights.

The daimyo of the country of tea also wanted to bring Kintaro Takigawa, the daimyo of the country of rivers, under his control.

Although Takigawa Kintaro is not very smart, he also heard the meaning of the daimyo of the Eastern tea country.

Takigawa Kintaro's face was flushed with anger, and he pointed at the daimyo of the country of tea angrily: "You..."

Seeing this scene, Junpei Yanase's eyes lit up, and he hurried to Kintaro Takigawa's side, patted him on the back, and helped him relieve the depression in his heart.

Then whispered a few words in his ear.

hum~
Takigawa Kintaro's complexion changed, and he snorted coldly: "Since you all think that I am at fault, please leave first."

The daimyo of the country of tea looked displeased, and left Takigawa Kintaro's mansion with a group of daimyos.

Junpei Yanase took a deep breath and said, "Master Kintaro, let's give up."

"Even Junpei, do you want me to give up?" Although Kintaro Takigawa was upset, he was his loyal subordinate after all, and he had the grace to save his life.

Since he said so, there must be a reason for saying so.

"They can't see the strength of those ninjas," Junpei Yanase said with a smile, "I think, Mr. Kintaro, who is as wise as Kintaro, must be able to see it."

······
at the same time.

On the top of the mountain to the left of Longping Village, a black vortex suddenly appeared.
