Naruto: My Own Wind
Chapter 222: Night Watch (Part )
Fengjian clasped his hands behind his head and walked slowly at the end of the entire team, two steps behind the last two people of the daimyo's guard.
The hat was pulled down very low, so even if Fengjian raised his head, the sunlight could not reach his eyes.
The blue sky and white clouds put Fengjian in a good mood.
This trip to the Country of Rice will take a little longer, but the points will be earned faster than if you were only given D-level tasks every day.
So, S-level missions are still more cost-effective.
Unlike the leisurely Kazama, Morinoida and Sagiri became highly focused after the team left the city, always paying attention to the changes around them, fearing that a kunai, shuriken or something would suddenly fly out from somewhere.
The reason they were like this was not only because they were too excited and nervous, but also because of past experience.
The bald Kusanagi left an indelible memory on the two of them.
Daizo and Ikki followed the carriage on both sides, one on the left and one on the right, and sitting in the carriage was the fat little man Daimyo.
Originally, the fat boy wanted to go there by sedan chair, but was stopped in time by Feng Jian. After persuasion, he chose a carriage.
Traveling in the Land of Tea is unimpeded, and even if you enter the Land of Fire, it is very safe.
The occasional flying birds, jumping rabbits and running pheasants all brought a little fun to the quiet team along the way.
A day is the process from the sun rising to setting.
In the inn street of a small town in the Land of Fire, the Daimyo of the Land of Tea was helped down from the carriage and, accompanied by Zebei and the captain of the guard, came to the best inn on the inn street.
As for the other guards, stay where they are.
And Fengjian and the others also checked into hotels under Zebei's arrangement.
Of course, there are two guards on duty outside the Daming Gate.
As for Kazama, he also called Morinoida and Sagiri over and arranged for the two of them to guard the first night, while he would guard the second half of the night alone.
As for the daimyo and Ikki, Kazama felt that there was no need to have them guard the night. Because their attributes were not much different from those of the daimyo's guards, he automatically ignored them.
As a result, the two were very unhappy, and confronted Fengjian with dark faces, as if to say, "If you don't make arrangements, we will be angry with you."
Feng Jian had no choice but to arrange for the two of them, Yimu in the first half of the night and Daizuo in the second half of the night.
Of course, it was you who volunteered in the second half of the night.
After everything was arranged, Fengjian pushed the four people out, closed the door and went to bed.
After persuading the elder to go back and rest, Morinoida and the other two came outside the hotel, walked around the hotel, and then quickly walked along the hotel street.
When they returned to the hotel entrance again, they found two guards, one on the left and one on the right, standing on both sides of the gate like door gods.
Senaida also discovered that there were three guards hiding in the dark not far away.
Moreover, from the angle where the five guards were standing, they could almost clearly see the situation of the entire hotel street.
Morinoida gave Sagiri a look and he appeared on the rooftop of the hotel. Looking behind the hotel, he also found six guards.
There are eleven guards in total. It seems that the other guards should take a rest and stay alert so that they can take over from these eleven guards.
Morinoida smiled slightly. There were guards in front, behind, and inside, so the three of them could only stay in this commanding height.
Whistling to Sagiri below, Sagiri and Kazuki also came to the rooftop.
Morinoida spread her hands and said, "This is where we stay."
“It’s good too, it’s cool, and besides, you can see far if you stand high.” Sagiri shrugged indifferently, stood on tiptoes and looked into the distance.
"That's right. If you are sleepy, just take a nap. I'll watch it by myself for a while." Yimu held the samurai sword, his eyes flashing with a gleam.
"Brother Ichimu, no need, let's go together, the three of us can look in three directions." Morinoida said, pointing to three points respectively.
Yimu nodded and came to the north side, "I'll guard here."
"Then I'll go to the point to the west." Sagiri said as she walked towards there.
Morinoida shook her head. There was only a little left and she had no choice.
Soon, the three of them were at their respective observation points, stretching their necks to look at the night under the neon lights, and also looking at the endless darkness through the lights.
This also made the neon lights seem extremely quiet because of the three people's concentration, as if there were no people here.
The gentle night breeze comes quietly, bringing a touch of coolness and comfort to this quiet night.
After a long silence, Sagiri was the first to break the silence, "Ida, Ikki, do you think our trip will be smooth sailing?"
"Of course everything went smoothly, Miss. As long as Senior Kazama was around, there had never been any accidents." Yimu's voice was full of confidence. This was what past history had told him.
"That's right, Sagiri, don't always look so worried and distressed.
Don't you think about it, in the past two years, when has Mr. Kazama let us down?" Morino Ida also felt that Sagiri was a little too cautious this time.
"I also know that Kazama is powerful, but this time he is escorting a daimyo!" Sagiri nodded in affirmation, but her eyes were a little vague, "Ida, have you forgotten that bald Kusanagi from last time?"
"How could I forget? That guy was the first tough opponent we met." Morinoida still remembers the big bald guy clearly.
"Ida, assassinating a daimyo is not uncommon, but after that assassination, there was no follow-up and it ended in vain." Sagiri frowned, her expression solemn, "Ida, Iki, I think this trip is very dangerous.
Think about it carefully. The bald Kusagakure ninja who assassinated the daimyo last time was, according to Kazama, also a very powerful jonin.
The mastermind behind the assassination has never surfaced, and this trip of the daimyo is a good opportunity, isn’t it?”
Morinoida and Kazuki were shocked, but at the same time they put away their contempt and looked calm.
"If I were the mastermind, I would not miss this opportunity.
And we must find a character who is more powerful than the bald Kusanagi last time to carry out this assassination." Sagiri's serious face revealed a hint of nervousness and excitement.
"As expected of Sagiri, your analysis is very logical. So what should we do?" Morinoida gave Sagiri a thumbs up, with a hint of pride in his eyes.
"Let's wait and see. Besides, these are just my personal guesses and the truth is still unknown." Sagiri spread her hands and glanced down. Everything was normal.
"No matter whether it is as the young lady said, we just need to do our own part. As for the rest, we have Senior Kazama and Brother Oza." Ikki also glanced down, and there was no change.
"Yes, what Ichiki-kun said is absolutely right." Morino Ida agreed very much. If a ninja stronger than the bald Kusanagi really came, then they could only cheer him on.
I looked downstairs and everything was quiet.
But when Morinoida was about to turn around, he noticed something wrong out of the corner of his eye, and he quickly looked over.
At the intersection of Hotel Street, a dark shadow swayed for a moment and then disappeared into the darkness.
This unexpected discovery made Morinoida alert immediately. He turned around and whispered, "There is a shadow over there. I'll go check it out."
"I'll go with you." Sagiri said immediately.
"No, our top priority is to protect the daimyo's safety. You and Ikki-kun stay here, I'll take a look and be back." After Morinoida said this, he disappeared from the roof in a flash.
Sagiri quickly ran to Morinoida's position and looked down; while Kazuki tightly gripped the hilt of the sword, looking as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
On Hotel Street, between two hotels, a man leaned against the wall, slowly poked half of his face out and looked at the two guards.
Just as this person was observing carefully, a calm voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Does it look good?"
The sound was not loud, but to this man, it was like thunder on the plain, and it scared him so much that he jumped as high as a floor.
After landing, he turned around, drew out the small sword behind him, and asked in a low voice: "Who!"
"Your grandfather." Morinoida crossed his arms and grinned.
The man was slightly stunned, then his face twisted, "I'm your grandpa."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stabbed towards Morinoida with the sword in his hand.
boom!
thump!
Bang!
There were three consecutive sounds, and the man who attacked Morinoida was sent flying backwards, hit the wall, and fell to the ground with his knife.
This sound also alarmed the guards hiding in the dark.
Soon, two guards came here and saw Senaida looking down at a guy with shifty eyes.
