On the morning of December 25, 55 years of the Konoha calendar, the capital of Rice Country, the Rice Castle.

The dust of the tailed beast jade fell to the ground, but as far as the eye could see, the inner city was already in ruins, no, it was not even a ruin, it was almost razed.

However, Yoshimi Takekami and the others were still alive, and they also used ninjutsu to prevent the shock wave, and Kikuchi Loyal rose up from the ground with some ninja troops, and they hid underground with the use of Shixingjutsu.

But many of the ninja soldiers were lying on the ground, some of them knew they were dead just by looking at them, and some were hopeless.

Looking into the city, the area close to the inner city was basically destroyed by the debris and air waves brought by the shock wave, and judging by the shouting, it sounded like it was affected several kilometers away.

The seven-tailed human pillar returned to its human form, looking at his masterpiece with a weak and appreciative look.

"I now finally understand why my grandfather and my teacher have always thought that our rice country needs time. "Because we lack such a decisive force." ”

At this time, the people from Takikure arrived, and they immediately preached to the Seven Tails Manpower Pillar, and at the same time apologized to Takeshimi Takegami.

Mei Daizi said angrily: "Cut, the thing has happened, apologize, is it useful?"

"However, we do not have the power to sanction them," Yamazaki said. ”

Mei Daizi was stunned, and then said firmly: "Then let me sanction them!"

Yamazaki said, "Well, there will be a day." ”

Rei Kazeku looked at Tomoya Takayama, meaning that he should teach Yamazaki and Midaiko not to be too ambitious.

And Takayama didn't answer, Yamazaki and Mei Daiko have never made chakra, they look like ordinary people, but in fact, their strength has surpassed Takayama Tomoya, and Mei Daiko can win with only physical strength, and they are qualified to say such things.

At this time, the daimyo ran out of the underground security station with a small team of twelve guards.

Seeing the situation in the inner city, the daimyo was very excited and shouted angrily: "Takegami Yoshimi, you bastard, this is how you led the ninja army and protected the country of rice!"

Takegami Yoshimi's face turned red with shame in his heart, but he immediately suppressed it and rushed towards the daimyo with all his might.

"Stop!"

Tomoya Takayama and Kikuchi loyashi rushed to block it, but they were stopped by the people in Takikure.

Here, Midaiko looked at Yamazaki, "Brother?"

Yamazaki shook his head, grabbed Midaiko's hand, and told Midaiko not to act rashly.

Over there, Takayama Tomoya said angrily: "What are you doing?"

"Actually meddling in our internal affairs. Kikuchi said angrily.

"Ninjas are only in charge of tasks. The leader of Taki-in-ri said, "We have taken over the task of Takeshimi Takekami, so naturally we want to help him." ”

While the three of them were talking, Yoshimi Takekami and the twelve guards approached.

"Thunder Slash!"

Takeshimi slashed with a sword, and the twelve guards avoided it one after another.

It's just that it's not just the blade that cuts out, but also the thunder and lightning.

Twelve guards were paralyzed by lightning.

"Wind Escape, Wind Slash!"

Takeshimi slashed horizontally again, and the blade wrapped in the wind blade seemed to extend more than ten meters, and the twelve guards distributed in a fan shape were cut into twenty-four sections with one sword.

Takegami shook off the blood on the sword, stepped on the flesh and blood of the twelve guards, and walked towards the daimyo amid the screams of the twelve guards.

"No, no, don't come, don't come. The daimyo fell to the ground in fright, and he couldn't stop pulling back with his hands and feet, and his hair crown fell to the ground.

"If you sent someone to assassinate your father, you should have thought that there would be such a day!"

"No ......"

Takegami Yoshimi didn't give the daimyo a chance to defend himself at all, and slashed through the daimyo's neck.

"Uh......" Daimyo tried to reach out and touch his neck, but his hand didn't reach out, and his head fell off along the knife marks.

Takegami Yoshimi grabbed the daimyo by the hair, picked up the daimyo's head, and looked up to the sky and shouted, "Father, I, Takegami Yoshimi, have avenged you, Father, go all the way." ”

Takegami Yoshili knelt down in the direction of the General's Mansion, "Send the General!"

The active ninja army, the former members of the Mochizuki Hundred, Takayama Tomoya and Kikuchi were all kneeling on the ground in the direction of the General's Mansion, "Send the Shogun,"

There were only Yamazaki and Midaiko standing, as well as those in Takikure.

"From today onwards, my father's granddaughter, Her Royal Highness Miyamoto Midaiko, is the daimyo of the Rice Country, and I, Yoshimi Takegami, will inherit my father's legacy. Takeshimi announced, his heart boiling, and he had finally come to this point.

"See His Highness the Daimyo, see the Shogun. Takeshiri immediately made the matter a reality, and a part of the ninja army immediately responded.

Kikuchi loyally stood up and said angrily: "Takeshimi Takeshang, you can't do this. ”

"In the country of rice, except for me, the leader of the ninja army of Takeshimi Takekami, no one has this qualification, you can't be loyal to Kikuchi, and neither can he Takayama Tomo. ”

Takeshimi carried the head of the daimyo and said loudly as he walked.

He's right. Takayama Tomoya smiled bitterly, and then saluted, "See His Royal Highness the Daimyo, see the Shogun." ”

Under the pull of Takayama Tomoya, Kikuchi Loyalty also knelt down.

Seeing this, the rest of the ninja army and the former members of the Mochizuki hundred people all saluted.

Seeing Yoshimi Takegami coming, Yamazaki hinted that Mei Daiko was showing weakness.

"Your Highness, this is the head of your father's enemy, please take it. ”

When Yoshimi Takekami presented the head to Mei Daizi, Mei Daizi took it with some trembling.

Kikuchi was so angry that he trembled angrily, and said angrily in a low voice: "Bastard, he is humiliating His Highness." ”

Takayama Tomoya knew that Mei Daizi was acting, but of course it wasn't punctured, it was better to show weakness at this time, and it would not be too late to talk about it when he grew up, and at the same time he couldn't help but praise Yamazaki, this idea must have come from Yamazaki.

Mei Daizi didn't want to hold the head, her eyes rolled, and she saw the human pillar, and walked over tremblingly.

Yamazaki understood Mei Daiko's plan and followed, and although Takegami didn't understand, he also followed.

At this time, the medical team arrived, and Takegami Yoshimi asked Kikuchi to faithfully direct the medical team to help the wounded, and he led the people to the Daimyo's shelter.

The other side.

"Your Highness. ”

Seeing Mei Daiko and Yamazaki coming, the leader of Takigakuri led ten of his subordinates to salute, and then found that the seven-tailed manpower pillar did not salute, and immediately reached out and pressed his head.

Except for special occasions, it is necessary to salute when you see a daimyo, even if the leader of the ninjas of the five major countries sees the daimyo of a small country, you must treat each other with courtesy.

Of course, whether you want to turn around and kill the daimyo after that depends on your mood.

Takegami Yoshiri stepped forward to greet him and introduced the twelve people from Takikure.

And Yamazaki and Mei Daiko didn't listen, their attention was all on Takegari Yoshiri, just now Takegami Yoshiri came over, and the two of them moved in their hearts at the same time, and each of them had a feeling.

The two secretly looked at each other, but they couldn't be sure what the other meant, and they didn't have a seizure for the time being.

"You helped us win the battle, and this is for you. "Midaiko gave the head of the former daimyo to the Seven Tails Human Pillar.

"Uh......"

"Thank you, Your Highness. "The leader of Taki-in-ri helped the seven-tailed manpower pillar to thank him.

Wiping her hands with a handkerchief, Mei Daiko invited: "Eight days later, on the New Year, I will perform a succession ceremony to officially become a daimyo, and I will come to watch the ceremony when the time comes." ”

Takeshiri hesitated for a moment, but did not interject, he did not have the right to speak about the succession, and it was also a good thing to set the name early.

"Okay, I must go. The seven-tailed man-pillar agreed to Midaiko's invitation.

Under the escort of Tomoya Takayama with the former Mochizuki hundreds, Midaiko and Yamazaki left.

They walked on the front foot, and the leader of Takikurin, slapped the head of the seven-tailed manpower pillar with his back foot, "Bastard, who made you agree." ”

"Really, we were going to go back after the New Year, and you said that the things here are cheap, so we should bring back as many as possible. ”

"Bastard, you know what, this kind of formal occasion is to wear a haute conceau dress, that's expensive. ”

"Anyway, we made a lot of money in the country of rice this time, and besides, I haven't worn a haute couture dress yet. ”

"Bastard, that's what you're for. ”

"Hey, ah, I'm going to the city to help. ”

"Don't run, damn it, you chase me, you must catch him and bring him back, this bastard will only help more and more!" ......

General Miyamoto Hiromi's Mansion, mourning hall.

Miyamoto Hiromi's concubines and maids cried loudly, but when they saw Yamazaki and Midaiko and Takayama Tomoya and others returning, their voices immediately became quieter.

All of them are not famous, and there is no way to meddle in the affairs of the General's Mansion on the surface, so they can only influence the Mansion through their mother's forces, but the hundred people are not among them, so they dare not be presumptuous when they see Yamazaki and Mei Daiko and Takayama Tomoya and others.

Takayama Tomoya told Yukitsuru about the heroic deeds of Shinzaburo Mochizuki and others, and made Yukitsuru cover his mouth and cry.

Yamazaki and Midaiko kneel side by side on the mourning hall, keeping the spirit and talking by writing in each other's hands.

"Brother, I think that Takeshiri has something to do with grandpa's affairs. ”

"I just don't think there's something wrong with him. ”

"What should we do?"

"Of course, to avenge grandpa. ”

"But, brother, that's just my feeling, we don't have proof. ”

"I believe you, Midaiko, and that's enough. ”

"Okay, so what are we going to do? Go to his house tonight?"

"No, that's too risky, and the chances of success are too small. ”

"You can't wait until we grow up, I can't wait that long. ”

"Don't worry, thanks to you, I have an idea. ”

"What is it, brother?"

"We will do it at your succession ceremony. ”

"Well, this is okay, even if we assassinate him at that time, it's hard to say that we did it. ”

"No, Midaiko, my plans are more than that, but I'll talk about it during this break. ”

"Good. ”......

Soon after, people began to come to worship Miyamoto Kokai, and there was an endless stream.

In the afternoon, Kikuchi came over and brought news of the ninja army.

In the first battle in the morning, the ninja army suffered heavy losses, mainly due to the number of casualties caused by the shattering and flying shots of the inner city wall, the number of deaths exceeded 5,000, the number of serious injuries exceeded 4,000, and the number of minor injuries exceeded 10,000.

And the people in the city, near the inner city, live in people of status, the houses are large, far away from the city, flying stones are not large, so the casualties are not as serious as they seem, only more than a hundred people were killed and wounded, most of them were servants in large households.

In addition, Takeshimi purged the city in the name of avenging Hiroshi Miyamoto, and more than 2,000 men, women, and children from the side branch of the Daimyo Ichimaishi Sect were all killed.

At present, the people in the city are panicking, the merchant ships do not enter the port, and ordinary people are closed and waiting for the dust to fall. ......
