When the Lord woke up, the world had changed.

He could see things around him clearly, no longer struggling to see with his only eye as before.Although my body was heavy and numb, and there was still a vague sense of pain and itching, it felt much more relaxed, and the previous suffocating feeling as if I was carrying a heavy burden disappeared.

"I……"

He looked at his bandaged hands and had a strange premonition.

"Husband, great, you're awake!"

His wife, Mrs. Tianyin, hugged him, which finally gave him some sense of reality.

"Thank you for your hard work during this time, Tianyin."

Tianyin smiled obviously, but shed tears: "It's not hard, I'm very happy, I thought... it's great, it's really great."

They thought that the curse would never stop if there was no misfortune, and they thought that when it developed to this extent, there was no way he could be saved.Unexpectedly, he could still live... Even if he was not completely cured, as long as he could live longer than before, they would be relieved.The children are really too young. How can parents bear to put such a heavy burden on such young children?Being able to buy more time is like a dream.

The lord wanted to stand up: "I have to go thank Hashirama-sama..."

Tianyin stopped him: "Master Hashirama said you need to take a good rest. He said whether there will be any sequelae depends on the time you spend recovering. Don't worry, with me here, everything will go smoothly."

Tianyin told him that the current situation is that Hashirama defeated Muzan, but they were unable to kill Muzan (they thought Muzan was too powerful so they couldn't kill him) and could only seal him. Now the ghost named Jushi who has taken refuge in them is studying how to kill him. Death is not tragic (this is true), most of the other upper strings were chased and defeated by Hashira. Basically, there were no casualties. Hashirama-sama who can even put his broken arm back is amazing.There are also many pillars whose markings have greatly increased their lethality. With the help of Master Hashirama, they have extended their lives through the practice of telekinesis.

"The more troublesome thing is that no one is dead, and other ghosts are still active. The few remaining ghosts in the twelve ghost months have united to occupy a small city. Now Lord Hashirama is working with the swordsmen on how to make the most of their lives with minimal sacrifice. Conquer this city and eradicate the Twelve Ghost Moons."

The lord asked back: "Who are the pillars under Hashirama-sama now?"

Zhu Shi mentioned a few names, and the lord understood as soon as he heard it that all the available combat forces had been dispatched, but...

"Just Tankuro who is on vacation. It seems that Hashirama-sama really cares about his family. Sorry, just let me be the villain."

With that said, the lord took a pen and ink and wrote a few words - [overtime pay, five times, target twelve ghost months, commission for each ghost, calculated according to the contract with Hashirama-sama. 】

"Send this to Tankuro."

Tianyin couldn't help but laugh when he saw it: "You really understand him."

The lord also smiled: "After all, he is the swordsman I admire most. Tankuro doesn't love money, he is just too serious. What he hates most is vague and ambiguous situations."

For example, when talking to people, I like the other party to state the purpose directly and straightforwardly, but I don't like hints.Likewise, he also hated ambiguous reasons such as righteousness when working for the Demon Slayer Corps.Just tell him how much it costs to kill a ghost. If you make it clear and clear, he will be willing to accept it.

Therefore, if he is asked to work overtime, the scope of work must be clear.As long as there is such a clear, black and white thing, he is willing to do it.

——This is how my lord understands it.

As someone who was not short of money and was raised like a nobleman, and later inherited a large number of shops that he didn't care about but kept making money, he probably didn't understand the hard work of the people at the bottom.

In fact, Tankuro is really poor.He really works for the money.

Sometimes, misunderstanding is a beautiful thing.

For Senju Hashirama, such siege warfare is not his area of ​​expertise. Generally, Senju Tobirama is responsible for such tasks that require consideration of hostage issues.After all, any ninjutsu from Senju Hashirama can be used to level the enemy together without distinguishing between friend and foe.

However, he was influenced by what he heard and saw. After all, he had gone on several similar missions with his younger brother, and he had also learned some basic chess tactics from Lu Jing, although he still had not defeated Lu Jing.

Things are unpredictable. He thought that the first time he would be responsible for a battle of this scale would be to face the enemies of Konoha and the Country of Fire in Konoha. Unexpectedly, he would catch the duck here first.

As the acting leader of the Thousand Hands Clan, he has the demeanor of a general. Even though he has no idea about rescuing the city's citizens, he is still very calm and seems to have everything under control. This makes those who are angry that he performs surgery on his lord without permission Pillars, look at him high. Of course, the most important reason is that the Lord has woken up.

"I have already gotten to know your personalities and abilities during the process of teaching you chanting during this period." Senju Hashirama said bluntly, "Although your lord has entrusted me with the command of this battle, because of the relationship between me and the cannibal, My combat experience is far less than yours, so if any of you feel there is any problem with my command during this period, please let me know directly, thank you."

His open and honest attitude won the favor of all the pillars. He considered teaching them chanting before, and he was considered half a master, so all the pillars nodded to express their understanding.

Senju Hashirama nodded: "Tian Yuan, please tell me the situation first."

Probably because they are all ninjas, even if they are ninjas from different worlds, many of their ideas and habits are very similar. During this time, Ukuo Tengen became very close to Senju Hashirama, and Senju Hashirama even taught Tianyuan the skills of his own world. Regarding Ninjutsu, it is a pity that Tengen does not have Chakra and cannot use Ninjutsu that utilizes Chakra. However, Tengen can use most of the Taijutsu and can be said to be very talented.

Moreover, no matter which world ninjas are in, the class system is actually the same. Genin and chunin obey jounin, and jounin obeys the higher-level ninjas of the Gosan family.From a military perspective, the ninja structure is easier to manage and apply in battles.

Tian Yuan immediately stepped forward, showed a city's defense map, and told the information he had discovered.

"Currently we know that these ghosts are hiding in this city, and even control the city lord and many of the upper echelons of this city, which means that everyone in the city is their hostage. The information we know so far is - "

"Most of the residents were asleep, so there was no chaos. Even some of the hidden ghosts we infiltrated were asleep. We suspected that one of the ghosts had a vampire technique. The difficulty lies in how to find that ghost and put it to death. Eradicate it. We still don’t know what effect this vampire technique has besides putting people to sleep. Maybe people will die if they are not careful.”

"In addition, there are many white-haired ghosts active. They all appear to be lower-level ghosts, but they are obviously carrying out organized operations. This is very troublesome. Before dealing with the enemy, these 'engineers' will inform each other. , may cause obstacles and obstructions to our actions."

Kanae asked: "Could it be possible that the white-haired lower-level ghosts are organizing their actions and that they are also using the blood ghost technique of a certain ghost in the Twelve Ghost Moons?"

Tianyuan nodded after thinking: "It is possible, no, it is very possible. Ghosts do not live in groups, and their vampire skills are also different. It is difficult to cooperate as a team and cooperate in combat. Since they have similar appearance and characteristics, For ghosts acting together, it is more appropriate to consider that these lower-level ghosts are all controlled by the blood ghost technique of a certain higher-level ghost."

Tian Yuan summarized: "In short, the ghosts we encountered before on the Demon Slayer Team all acted alone. Even if there were ghosts who acted together, just like the last time we encountered them, they all fought individually and did not act jointly. And The difficulty this time is that the opponent adopted a team-fight-like form, which should be caused by the joint action of at least two or more Twelve Ghost Moons."

Senju Hashirama asked: "Last time you fought with a few people in the Twelve Ghost Moons, you should have learned about the opponent's blood ghost skills. So, do those who escaped have similar blood ghost skills?"

Tianyuan shook his head: "I didn't find it. Maybe the other party didn't use it to conceal his combat power, or maybe the other party was not among the ghosts last time."

Not knowing the other party's intelligence would be too disadvantageous for them.Hashirama asked his son remotely and asked him to ask Yiwozao if he knew anything.The answer was that Yi Wo Zuo didn't know much. Shang Xian San was only interested in challenging the strong and basically only interacted with Shang Xian. However, Shang Xian San had never heard of similar vampire techniques.So this time the ghost is more likely to be the next string.

Moreover, judging from the effects alone, these two kinds of vampire arts should be auxiliary systems rather than combat systems. They are more like low-level vampire arts that are not very powerful.

The lower string and the upper string basically have separate meetings. The chance of Wuhan calling the Twelve Ghost Moons together for a meeting is very small. The main reason is that the downward string is too mobile, and the loyalty is far less than that of the upper string. If you are cautious, Wuhan will not let the eggs go. In a basket, if an unreliable lower stringer betrays, he is likely to betray everyone's intelligence. Therefore, the upper stringer only knows his colleagues in the upper string, and is not very familiar with those lower string colleagues who are more mobile, let alone Learn about their vampire magic.

This question may be more direct to ask Muzan, but even Senju Hashirama knows that after sealing Muzan, he cannot take it out casually. If he runs away as soon as he is released or kills Yiwozao remotely, it will be troublesome. .

However, Yiwozuo did remember that he seemed to have heard that Xia Xianyi was a ghost who could control dreams. The specific situation was unclear, but he just heard that.

After receiving such information, Senju Hashirama quickly made a judgment.

"According to the information I know, there is a ghost who can control dreams in the bottom line, and the collective sleep is probably caused by him. I don't know about the white-haired one, but if we treat them as two ghosts - we need a team of people Go deal with the white-haired subordinate ghosts and follow the clues to find the superior ghosts who control them. Another team of people deal with the ghosts that control dreams and rescue the sleeping residents. I can use the circle to locate the location of nearby ghosts, and the range of the circle can cover the city. But the problem is that entering the dream-creating ghost's sphere of influence is likely to hit the opponent's passive skills. I need to be able to move within that range and act as an object for my eyes, allowing me to perform ninjutsu attacks remotely."

Tianyuan glanced at the Zhu present: "Unfortunately, the strengths of these Zhu present are swordsmanship, not resistance to this kind of vampire technique."

At this moment, Kanae raised her hand: "Since it is said that the white-haired lower-level ghost can move inside, it proves that the ghost inside will not fall into passive skills. It can be speculated like this. Then, I recommend a person - Ms. Tamashi's assistant , the ghost named Yushiro, he is a ghost created by Miss Tamashi, so he is not controlled by Mukai. I heard that his vampire technique also has effects similar to farsightedness and invisibility. Of course, this requires his own approval. , but I think it would be more effective for him to assist us in this situation.”

If others said this, everyone would probably doubt the intentions of the person who recommended a ghost to help them.But Kanae is a Hashira who has been hoping to find a balance between ghosts and humans since she joined the Demon Slayer Corps. It is only normal for her to recommend a demon who cooperates with the Demon Slayer Corps to participate.

Yanzhu lamented and Yu Xingming was a little worried: "Amitabha, although this ghost said to help us study how to kill Wuhan, we know nothing about their past and use their power without any guarantee. Is it too dangerous for them to take trust?”

Hashirama thought for a while: "Let's do this. Ask him about his own wishes first. If he is willing to assist us, it would be best. But I was originally planning to use my clones to act at the same time, but the clones were attacked. will disappear, so I want to have an extra layer of insurance. If he acts abnormally, the clone will respond in time. Furthermore, I heard that this child admires Miss Tamashii who saved him. I believe that Ms. Tamashii Stay with us and the child will not do anything harmful to her.”

This statement won everyone's trust more than a simple guarantee, and everyone nodded to approve this issue.

At that time, a two-pronged approach will be adopted, with the focus being to find the ghost that can create dreams. After killing that ghost, others can rescue the people in the city and then kill the evil ghosts.

No one mentioned that there was another possibility. Even if the ghost that created the sleep effect was killed, the person sleeping under the vampire spell might not be able to wake up.

This was another outcome they didn't dare to think about, having to sacrifice so many people to kill the evil ghost.But they have no choice. The longer they delay, the more people will fall asleep. If they compromise due to hostage threats, they will only fall into the evil ghost's scheme.

The war between humans and ghosts is so cruel.

Yuzhuang Tianyuan finally couldn't help but ask: "Lord Hashirama, can you try to capture the ghost that created the dream alive?"

It would be safer if we could force the other party to remove the vampire spell before dealing with it.But of course, if he is caught, the other party will not do this. Everyone knows that if the vampire technique is lifted, the people of the Demon Slayer Team will no longer be able to spare his life.

Senju Hashirama also smiled bitterly: "I'll try my best."

For him, this life is really difficult.How many years had it been since he had used a ninjutsu that was less lethal and not exaggerated in scale? It was like trying to catch an ant with the top of his toes, but he still couldn't kill it. It was too difficult.

So, does my son Tankuro do such a difficult job every day?It’s hard for him.During this time, let your old father help you relieve your worries, so that you can complete the work here with peace of mind and go to Xiaojie's world!By the way, let me tell Xiaojie that his brother will bring his sister-in-law there in two days. I believe Xiaojie will be very happy!Hahaha!
