The strongest soldier

The next day, at dusk, the setting sun shrouded the prosperous Japanese Kyoto like blood. Neon lights flashed, traffic was busy, and people flowed in, which clearly showed the prosperity of the city. The city center was a "green island" surrounded by water, and amid the bustling traffic It is quite conspicuous in the city. Deep in the Green Island is the Royal Palace. The surrounding "moat" isolates the Royal Palace from the noisy and bustling modern city, making the Royal Palace somewhat mysterious.

The imperial palace is a traditional Japanese building with green tile roofs, white walls and brown copper pillars. The main hall is the center of the entire palace. The main activities of the royal family and diplomatic etiquette are held in the "Song Pavilion" in the main hall. Janghwajeon It is the place where the emperor receives congratulations from the masses. There is a grand banquet hall in the Fengden Hall, and the Chogoden Hall is the emperor's inner palace.

In addition, there are Huayin Pavilion, Waterfall Pavilion, Shuangjin Pavilion, teahouse, Huangling Hall, treasure hall, shrine, old imperial library, etc. in the palace. The inner gate and the castle are both tens of meters high from the ground. The foundation is made of huge boulders. The stones rarely have standard cubes, but the blocks fit tightly together. There is no cement or lime, but they are extremely strong.

In the waterfall viewing pavilion, a middle-aged man in kimono was quietly watching the surrounding scenery. He was a little thin and his face was not very good-looking. He was the current emperor. Next to the emperor sat a woman in kimono. It is the empress. According to the Japanese legal system, the emperor handed over his power and became a spiritual symbol. But what is little known is that the emperor controls a force, that is, the ninja. Through the ninja, he firmly controls the country. This is one of the reasons why the Emperor was not abolished and continued.

At this time, a frail old man walked slowly. The people hiding around to protect the emperor saw the old man, but did not show their presence to stop him. The old man was the president of the Chrysanthemum Club. After seeing the emperor's location, he slowly walked over , it seems very slow, but the distance of more than 20 meters is reached in an instant.

"Uncle Emperor is here, please come and sit down." When the emperor saw the president, he stood up respectfully to greet him, not daring to show off.

"Hello, uncle." The imperial concubine also stood up to greet him. She was polite and said politely, "Uncle, you guys chat, I'll have someone prepare some fruit snacks." After saying that, she slowly left.

The president nodded with satisfaction, found a seat nearby and sat down, took a look at the surrounding scenery, and said calmly: "You are in a good mood, but something may happen recently, so be careful."

"With your uncle here, there is nothing to worry about." The emperor smiled and said, "I understand the general situation. Have you found out who did it? How did you deal with it?"

"Failed to find it, leave it to Ishiino to deal with." The president said calmly.

"Huh?" The emperor was startled, looked at the old man in surprise, and asked, "Uncle, what do you mean?"

"The Ishii family is the dominant one, and our royal family lacks the power to succeed. We must suppress the largest ninja family appropriately. This is also our usual method. When Ishii Sora dies, the Ishii family loses a general, and Ishiino can replace it. The heart of the Anshii family, secondly, we need one person to charge into the battle. If we succeed, everyone will be happy. If we fail, let Ishiino be the scapegoat." The old man said lightly, with the expression on his face unchanged, as if he was calmly recounting a peaceful incident. Things that have nothing to do with you are normal.

"So that's the case, it's feasible." Upon hearing this, the Emperor smiled knowingly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "The Ishii family is really in trouble, especially after they created some kind of death killer organization and were suppressed by the enemy several times. Speaking of which, I have to thank that enemy, which seems to be called a ghost, right?"

"Yes, in addition, I have an intuition that the recent series of events, which seem to be chaotic, are actually caused by the Ishii family. It is possible that the person named Ghost is causing trouble. I'm worried that he will make a fuss about you. Therefore, I will stay with you these two days until Ishiino handles the matter," the old man said.

"Okay, please take care of more uncles. If it is really a ghost, then things will be fun." The emperor sneered and looked at the distant scenery and fell into deep thought. After a while, the emperor suddenly sighed and said: "The Ishii family His strength is too strong, who will win this time, what does the emperor think?"

"I can't see through it," the old man said calmly.

"The Ishii family should be killed for forcing me to take their daughter. Fortunately, the queen abides by etiquette and is a good woman. Otherwise, I would have been angry to death by them. It's a pity that our royal family is not powerful enough to replace the Ishii family as the leader." The No. 1 ninja family, if the emperor's uncle hadn't held up the stage and controlled the Chrysanthemum Club, our royal family would have been even more lonely." The emperor said with some bitterness.

"Give me another three years, and our kamikaze camp can be publicly unveiled. By then, I will have the confidence to challenge the Ishii family." The old man said calmly.

"Yes, it's just that it's been a long time. I haven't been feeling very well lately. You just happened to come and chat with me. By the way, you haven't taught me about my chess skills for a long time. Today is a good day. How about a game?" The emperor smiled. He said, looking at the old man with a more expectant look.

Just as he was talking, suddenly a ninja hurried over. The old man raised his eyelids, glanced at the person and closed them slightly. He fell asleep. After the ninja bowed respectfully to the old man, he said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, you have discovered a strange phenomenon. Hundreds of rats emerged from the sewers, and sewage began to rise upwards."

"What?" The emperor was startled, glanced at the old man, and then looked at the ninja and said: "The palace is located on a high ground, surrounded by a river surrounding the city. The sewage is discharged into the river. How can the water flow to higher places? Go and find out the situation. Report immediately and issue a level one alert order."

"Yes." The ninja nodded respectfully and hurried away.

"You're still not calm enough. Are you panicking about this?" The old man waited for the ninja to leave, looked at the emperor with some dissatisfaction and said: "Needless to say, this matter is man-made. It seems that the enemy has really started to attack the palace. It’s just that I didn’t expect that the other party would actually use this kind of plotting method. This is not what I’m good at, it’s just some tricks, it’s not a big problem, don’t worry.”

"Well, maybe it collapsed there, causing water to pour in. I had long heard that there were rats in the pipe network below, and I had killed them several times, but I didn't expect that they were still not eradicated." The Emperor explained with a wry smile.

"Someone destroyed the pipe network, causing the water to flow backwards, which alerted all the rats in the underground pipes to come out. It seems that someone wants to attack from underground. Immediately send an order, and the idea is underground." The old man's face suddenly turned cold and said.

"Okay." The emperor agreed, Void made a gesture, and a ninja hurried over.
