The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

After resting for one night, the Shimada clan began to hurry back to the station.

"Grand Elder, I will trouble you this time, Yuan Jiu, I have to listen to the arrangements of the Great Elder along the way."

"Young Patriarch, don't worry."

"clear"

At this time, the Shimada Clan, Hanzo is arranging to envoy personnel from the Land of Water.

After much deliberation, Hanzo still chose to let the chief elder, Tsurumong, take Yuan Jiu to visit the daimyo of the land of water.

These two were naturally not chosen by Hanzo at random.

On the surface, the Great Elder is the number two figure in the family, and his mission to the country of water can make the water daimyo feel the sincerity of the Shimada clan.

The Great Elder is also one of the few elders in the family who are involved in negotiations and diplomacy in addition to fighting. It is obviously appropriate to send him there.

As for Motohisa, he went on behalf of Hanzo.

Although the Great Elder is steady, he doesn't know much about Hanzo's thoughts after all.

As Hanzo's guard, Yuan Jiu was one of the clansmen who were most influenced by him.

Therefore, Yuan Jiu can almost guess Hanzo's own thoughts based on the actual situation.

In addition, these two people are at least Jnin's strength, no matter what danger they encounter, they are enough to deal with it.

"This mission is no small matter. The future of the family is up to you." Hanzo solemnly asked.

When the two heard the words, they both nodded seriously, and then disappeared into the conference room.

Hanzo watched the two disappear, got up and walked outside the meeting room.

In this war, the Shimada family suffered heavy losses. At this time, almost every family was in mourning.

Because of the danger on the battlefield, the Shimada clan evacuated hastily, and almost all the dead ninjas could not even find their bodies.

The relatives and friends of these people can only set up a monument for them, and they can't even bury them in peace.

Hanzo sighed.

Since he came to the ninja world, it was the first time he saw such a big loss for his family.

Seeing the densely packed tombstones with your own eyes is different from seeing the rows of comfort monuments in Konoha in the anime.

"The young patriarch should have seen such a scene for the first time."

A hoarse voice sounded from behind Hanzo.

Hanzo turned to look at him.

It was a wrinkled old man.

Hanzo recognized him, he was the old man in charge of cleaning the meeting room in the family.

Since Hanzo first came here, he has been in charge of cleaning here.

The old man was like an invisible person, he never appeared in front of the high-level people, and he was never curious about the content of their conversations, but he ensured that every place here was always clean and tidy.

Hanzo said curiously: "Have you seen it many times?"

The old man smiled and said: "This old man is 83 years old. When I was young, Master Qianhe was still in charge of the family."

Hanzo was taken aback, Shimada Chiwa also knew that this was Hanzo's great-uncle and grandfather, and also the patriarch of the previous generation.

In this way, this old man has really witnessed the three generations of the family.

The old man continued: "I didn't have ninja talent since I was a child. Not only did Xueji have the pattern of the white dragon, but it also took a month to refine chakra without success. In the end, I had no choice but to accept this fact.

However, my younger brother has ninja talent. Later, every time he goes out with Lord Chiwa, I will prepare armor and ninja equipment for him, and occasionally use the money I saved to replace him with a few detonating charms.

However, once Chiwa-sama took my younger brother on an expedition, neither of them came back, and then the patriarch became Sadahisa-sama. "

The old man shook his head when he said this, and said: "I don't know how tragic that battle was, I only know that the family hastily moved away from the original residence afterwards, and did not accept any commission for a full year. Every family wears filial piety, of course, I am one of them."

Hanzo fell silent when he heard the words, and he didn't know what to say.

But the old man didn't seem to care whether Hanzo answered or not, he just said to himself: "Later, there were several similar situations when Master Sadahisa was in charge of the family, but since my brother was killed in battle, I don't care about these things so much anymore. .”

The old man suddenly patted Hanzo on the shoulder, and said: "So Chongnian is really a good patriarch. I remember that he has led the family for more than 20 years. This is the first time. In the future, the young patriarch must also work hard."

After all, the old man left slowly.

Hanzo looked at his back, but suddenly couldn't help laughing.

"This old man is really interesting."

Although the old man said that he didn't care much about it since his brother passed away, but if he really didn't care, he wouldn't rush to Hanzo to talk about it.

Hanzo said in a low voice: "Don't worry, the family will definitely not have this kind of situation again in the future."

Different from the gloomy and gloomy atmosphere of the Shimada clan, the Uchiha clan is full of joy at this time.

The victory over the Shimada clan this time can be said to have greatly boosted the morale of the Uchiha clan.

Since that defeat, the Uchiha clan has had a bad time. Although they also defeated the Hagoromo clan in the middle, they had to share their spoils with the Ikakacho and Sarutobi clan.

Besides, the Shimada clan is like a heavy mountain, and the Uchiha clan can't breathe under the pressure.

And this time, although the circumstances were special, it was undeniable that they defeated the Shimada clan without much loss.

On the contrary, the two old enemies of the family suffered heavy losses, so the Uchiha clan's upturned temperament showed signs of relapse.

The one who has the deepest experience is the Sarutobi clan under the leadership of Sasuke Sasuke.

They clearly felt that the Uchiha clan's attitude towards them had gradually changed.

Even in the Uchiha clan, there are voices gradually appearing to make the thief pay the price.

who is the thief

Naturally, it is the Zhuludie and Sarutobi clan.

It doesn't matter if Zhuludie is taking shelter with the Qianshou clan now, but the Sarutobi clan will bear the brunt of it.

Sasuke Sarutobi also had a sad face during this time, and couldn't help but regret his original choice.

This Uchiha clan is really not a good partner for cooperation.

Fortunately, Uchiha Tajima ignored these voices, and instead comforted Sarutobi Sasuke more, which made him feel a little more at ease.

"Patriarch, since the Shimada clan has declined, we don't need to endure the birdishness of the Thousand Hands clan anymore, and just tear up the Laoshizi alliance."

At the high-level meeting, an old Uchiha waved loudly.

"Yeah, why bother putting up with the Thousand Hands Clan anymore?"

""

There are also many voices echoing the elder below.

However, Uchiha Tajima said slowly and expressionlessly: "Who can deal with Shimada Shigenen?"

As soon as these words came out, the elders immediately fell silent.

"Have you all forgotten the battle we had with the Shimada clan a few years ago?

At that time, our strength was even slightly stronger than the Shimada clan, but what happened?"

Uchiha Tajima's question made all the elders break out in a cold sweat.

Uchiha Tajima glanced around for a week and said: "As long as Shimada Shigenen is still there, the alliance with the Senju clan cannot be broken for the time being, of course."

Uchiha Tajima also showed a sneer.

"Maybe the content of the covenant needs to be adjusted."
