Naruto Guilty Crown

The poor little Yuhua, with misty eyes, gradually became calmer in breathing in Tian Zhizang's arms, and finally fell into a peaceful sleep.

Tian Zhiganghu gently placed the bath flowers on the haystack beside him, turned around and said: "The matter has not reached a serious level yet. I have already conveyed the message to the Iron Country. I believe it won't take long. , then support troops will arrive."

"And my lower body has healed, so a small force like that just now will no longer pose a threat."

"When did the assassination begin? Do you have a specific plan?" Ying Manji raised her hands and asked with a frown: "It's just an aimless escape, maybe it will stagger with the support troops."

"After some distance from the country of Taki, killers came one after another... Originally, there were more than 50 samurai hiding in the dark." Tian Zhizuna paused with a depressed expression, and collected his emotions before continuing.

"If the support troops arrive nearby, I have a special way to contact them. Lord Yingmanji, don't be careful."

"You don't need to call me sir, just call me Ying Manji. After all, we are of equal strength." Ying Manji didn't blush and corrected his words without a heartbeat. It always felt weird to be called "sir" by an elder.

"This is inappropriate. You are my savior." Tian Zhizanghu refused sternly at first, but under Ying Manji's strong insistence, he hesitantly agreed and continued talking about business.

"In addition to samurai support, the Daimyo of the Iron Kingdom has also entrusted the Konoha Ninja Village. Konoha will definitely send powerful ninjas to the iron Daimyo's request, and they should be able to fulfill it in the next two days or so."

"Now we plan to go to Konoha Ninja Village. They are very powerful there. As long as we reach Konoha, Yuka-sama will be safe."

Ying Manji took out a map, held her chin, nodded thoughtfully, and agreed: "Yeah, it's a wise decision. It's really too far to go to the Iron Country now. To cross the entire Fire Country, it will take at least ten years. Many days, compared to Konoha which is only about six days away.”

"I sincerely request Your Excellency Ying Manji to accompany you all the way and escort Lord Yuhua for a while." Tian Zhigang knelt on the ground and bowed down as a monk.

"I beg you, Lord Yingmanji!" Beita and Nitta also knelt down and performed the same etiquette.

"This..." Ying Manji frowned, feeling entangled.

He could go down a section, escort them to meet the Konoha ninja, and then cross the Kingdom of Sichuan and enter the Kingdom of Wind, and it wouldn't take a few days.

But he really couldn't stand the unpalatable taste of the military food pills.

"I'm really sorry. I know you have a mission, but it's too dangerous for us alone. My duty is to do my best to protect the safety of Mr. Yuhua." Tian Zhiganghu lowered his head and said sincerely said.

"Your Excellency Ying Manji, your miraculous secret ninjutsu has opened my eyes to this. With your help, we will definitely be able to join forces safely."

"Please, Your Excellency!" the three warriors said in unison.

"..."

Ying Manji was silent for a long time, and finally reason took over. She let out a long sigh: "Get up, I agreed."

"Great, thank you, sir!" Nitta and his wife jumped up in cheers.

Tian Zhiganghu raised his head in surprise, looked at Ying Manji, smiled brightly, and said excitedly: "Thank you for your help, I will definitely give you a satisfactory reward when the job is done."

"However, I can only send you to join forces with the Konoha ninjas before going on a mission. I hope you can understand." Sakura Manji warned in advance.

"That's enough." Tian Zhigang nodded, feeling relieved.

&n

bsp;Ying Manji silently praised Tian Zhizanghu's performance, and he knew how to advance and retreat. If there was a little bit of nagging and dissatisfaction, he would not care about it.

After all, you are risking your life and suffering from "food poisoning".

"By the way, Lord Yingmanji, your partner is really big-hearted. Why is there so much movement and why is he so asleep?" Nitta scratched the back of his head and finally asked the question he had been thinking about: "I thought it was because I didn't want to." Accept us, so you are pretending to sleep."

"Don't worry, they do this all the time, and you will get used to it in the future." Sakura Manji smiled "hehe", as if she suddenly remembered something, and asked casually: "By the way, do you know Kakuzu?"

"Kakuzu?" Tian Zhizuna's smile suddenly changed, his face turned extremely ugly, and he said in a low tone: "Your Excellency, when you suddenly mention him, does it mean... that he will come?"

"That assassination team said before he died that Kakuzu had accepted the mission. It didn't look like he was lying." Sakura Manji's attitude became serious and asked: "What's wrong? Is he difficult to deal with?"

Tian Zhiganghu stood up suddenly as if he was struck by lightning, and walked back and forth anxiously, muttering incessantly: "What to do!? What to do... we must leave immediately, otherwise Master Yuhua will be in danger!" "

Nitta and the two also fell into a mysterious silence with ashen faces.

"Samurai Tianzhi?" Ying Manji looked at his performance in surprise and called his name loudly.

Tian Zhizuna was awakened, reacted, and bowed in a daze to apologize: "I'm sorry, I'm rude. This is really... unacceptable. If what is said is true, we must put out the fire immediately, conceal our whereabouts, and leave."

"Tell me first, who is Kakuzu, and what makes you so afraid?" Sakura Manji asked.

Tian Zhizuna was anxious and said quickly: "He is a real monster. The previous assassins were like babies that had not learned to walk in front of him."

"I have heard of his terrible name when I was a child, but he can make children stop crying at night."

"He was originally a ninja who belonged to the assassination force of Takigakure Village. He eventually betrayed Ninja Village, killed all the senior staff of Takigakure Village, and took out their hearts. His methods were cruel and terrifying."

"He also fought against the first Hokage, Senju Hashirama, who was known as the "God of Ninja", and has survived to this day. He is still active in the underground assassination world and is called the "Undead Zombie"."

"Everyone he targeted died tragically and had their hearts stolen."

Tian Zhizuna talked like a fluent speaker, his fear of Kakuzu was revealed in his words, and he was trying his best to describe it to Sakura Manji, hoping that he would also understand the horror of Kakuzu.

"We can't stop and have to travel all night. If we encounter him, we have no chance of winning."

"You still need to take out the heart after killing people? How disgusting." Ying Manji frowned, and she didn't have a good impression of Kakuzu in her heart. She asked in confusion: "I fought with the first Hokage. How old is he now? The life of a ninja is average. It won’t be that long.”

"His age is unknown, but he has been active in the ninja world for at least 70 years." Tian Zhizuna's expression gradually became impatient, and he persuaded again: "Your Excellency Sakura Manji, we should leave here!"

Ying Manji stretched out her right hand, which was tightly wrapped in bandages, and waved to the sky. A stream of light flashed through the air, flew to and floated in front of everyone.

It was a creature with silver wings, a strange shape, and strange bloodshot eyes. Its dark gray pupils looked at everyone, as if they were full of wisdom.

"Don't be careful, rest assured tonight, and rush on your way tomorrow."

"If someone appears, 'it' will give me feedback in time."
