Konoha: The road to the gods starting from Kannabi Bridge

Chapter 73 Continues

Kawa no Kuni, north, Awara Town.

In a hot spring hotel.

"Lord Masaichi, there is an urgent letter." Ninja Yugi came outside the room and knocked on the door.

"Bring it in."

An old but not weak voice sounded.

"Yes."

The fog ninja pushed open the door and walked in.

in the room,

The old man was sitting on the tatami on his knees. He was wearing loose clothes and was short in stature. His hair like crane feathers was neatly combed back. His eyes were particularly bright. When he heard the door open, he turned his eyes away from the book and turned to He saw the young Mist Ninja who walked through the door, looked at the letter in his hand, and asked aloud: "Who is it from?"

"It was sent by Master Xiongsan."

The Mist Ninja responded, reaching out and handing over the letter respectfully.

"Yuzo?"

The old man raised his eyebrows.

He reached out and took the letter.

"Lord Zhengyi, I will take my leave now."

The Mist Ninja looked at the old man who was about to open the letter, and chose to leave with a wink. He was not at all curious about what Master Yusan's letter contained... Although he was also a member of the Shuoyun clan, He is just a chuunin from the Sakumo clan.

But I am not qualified to understand what Mr. Xiongsan said in his letter to Mr. Zhengyi, the clan leader.

and,

To be honest, even if I let him see it, he wouldn't understand it.

letter,

It's encrypted.

"Ah."

Zhuo Yunzheng responded without looking at the retreating clan members. He just opened the envelope quickly and interpreted the contents according to the popular interpretation methods within the Zhuo Yun clan. Soon... the old man's expression changed. Extremely drastic changes.

"How is this possible?"

He exclaimed.

His eyes were full of disbelief, as if he had seen some monster beyond common sense.

at this moment--

"Grandpa?"

The room door was pushed open again,

The lively and lovely girl rushed in, opened her green eyes wide, and asked with deep curiosity: "What happened?"

"······deep."

Zhuo Yunzheng glanced at his granddaughter and let out a heavy breath.

After controlling the almost out-of-control emotions, he thought for two seconds and was not going to hide anything. Instead, he said: "I just received a letter from the clan. It said something incredible."

"An incredible thing?"

The girl became more and more curious.

Something that would make my grandpa feel incredible...sounds like a lot of fun!

and,

From the look on Grandpa's face, it's not a bad thing.

She stretched out her hand, grabbed the old man's sleeve, shook it vigorously, and said coquettishly: "Grandpa, stop being so pretentious, tell me quickly what happened?"

"Okay, okay, Ming, please be gentle, you will tear grandpa's sleeves off..."

"it is good."

The girl immediately became obedient and looked at the old man eagerly.

<divclass="contentadv">"You should know Sansho Fish Hanzo, right?"

"Of course, Sansho Hanzo, the leader of Amegakure Village, was regarded by many ninjas as the pinnacle of the ninja world in the past. Even now that he is old... he is still one of the strongest people in the ninja world today, compared to Grandpa, you are even better."

"You girl, you know how to break my heart."

Saoyun Zhengyi shook his head with a wry smile. He had no choice but to take care of this precious granddaughter, so he could only continue: "Sanshouyu Hanzo was killed not long ago."

"what?"

The girl's eyes widened.

"real or fake?"

"It should be true. This news has been verified by many parties when it was delivered to our Kirigakure Village. Sanshouyu Hanzo... was undoubtedly killed by someone. It is said that there were many rains at the same time. The Ninja Jonin and the Iwa Ninja Jonin died together.”

"...Iwa Ninja?"

The girl frowned slightly, "Grandpa, was it Iwa Ninja who killed Sansho Hanzo? But what does this have to do with us? Why did you go to the trouble of sending a message to tell us about this?"

She was a little confused,

This news is indeed shocking.

But what does it have to do with them, the Mist Ninjas?The relationship between the Rain Hidden Village and the Kingdom of Water is completely inseparable. Whether Sanshouyu Hanzo dies or lives, it has no impact on their Kirigakure Village at all... Even if it can take a step back, it can It affects the war with Konoha, but no matter what, it won't affect their team in the Kawa Country, right?

"It wasn't the Iwa ninja who killed Sansho Hanzo."

Zhuo Yunzheng shook his head and denied.

"Not an Iwa nin..."

The girl frowned more and more, and an incredible thought came to her mind, "Grandpa, are you going to tell me that the one who killed Sansho Hanzo was the... Koeda clan?" If this incredible thought If the idea is true, then it is understandable why he went to the trouble to send the message.

"good."

A happy smile appeared on Zhuoyun Zhengyi's face,

It's not in vain that the Zuoyun clan and the Terumi clan love Ming. This child is not only extremely talented in battle, but also has a very flexible mind.

"...Is it really true that the Kozhi clan killed Sansho Hanzo...and a group of rain ninja jounin and Iwa ninja jounin?" The girl was stunned, and she was very puzzled, "The Kozhi clan Is your strength that great?"

Among the information I learned before,

But there is no saying that the Huzhi clan is so powerful.

"This question...I also want to know the answer."

The smile on Zhuoyun Zhengyi's face faded.

The strength of the Kozhi clan is an issue that deserves great attention, because it will affect many things, such as the opinions of Yuanshi and Master Mizukage, the attitudes of other families in the village, and whether the Kozhi clan can Whether they can successfully integrate into Kirigakure Village, and whether the Yaoyun Clan will increase their support for the Huzhi Clan...

Recruiting a powerful family and recruiting a weak family are two completely different situations.

This is the reality of the ninja world.

it's here,

Strength determines everything.

"Grandpa, did the letter say how the Kozhi clan killed Sansho Hanzo?" the girl asked again after being surprised for a moment.

"...It is said that a young man named Kozhi Tamazhang killed Sanshouyu Hanzo and Akaashi from Iwagakure Village. You may not have heard of the name Akaashi. He was a very powerful master from Iwagakure Village. , although it is not as good as Sanshouyu Hanzo, but it is by no means an ordinary person."

"Huzhi Yuzhang······"

The girl murmured the name, with a look of memory on her face, "If I remember correctly, this Huzhi Yuzhang is one of the few remaining Jonin of the Huzhi clan?"

"..."

Zhuoyun Zhengyi said nothing.

He remembered more clearly that the list previously provided by the Huzhi clan contained some basic information about the few jounin. For example, this Huzhi Yuzhang was only fifteen years old... which was younger than He looks two years older than Ming.

Just at this time,

There were rapid footsteps outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, the same urgent voice sounded: "Master Zhengyi, we are connected with the people of the Huzhi clan."
