Chapter Eighty-Three: Samurai!

The samurai were originally established by Emperor Hengmu of Japan to consolidate his political power. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This is the origin of the samurai in reality, and in the Hokage world, the origin of the samurai is no longer traceable. But it is undeniable that this profession has also shone with endless brilliance. In time, in today's era when ninjas are leading the trend, there are still samurai like Mifune, who are famous all over the world.

If the Uchiha clan is a wealthy family in the ninja world, then the Yanagi family is a big family in the samurai world. The prestige of the Uchiha clan was created by a group of strong people such as Madara Uchiha, Izuna Uchiha, and so on. The Yanagi family relied on the three swordsman-level powerhouses of Yanagi Zongyan, Yanagi Zongju, and Yanagi Shibei to cut it with a sword, and these three were the famous Yanagi Three Days Dog in the samurai world!

After the Yanagi family became famous, they stayed in the Land of Fire and served as the Minister of War of the Ministry of Military Affairs of the Land of Fire for generations. Well, since the rise of Konoha Village, the position of the secretary of the military department has been quite embarrassing! Obviously, he is in charge of the country's soldiers and horses, but there is not even a small soldier under the secretary of the military department. Had it not been for the insistence of the Yagyu family, this department would have been abolished fifty years ago.

Yagyu Masamune is the seventh-generation head of the Yagyu family, and he is an old-fashioned, serious man, and he is not like the Wind Demon clan, who thinks about revitalizing the family all day long. It's not like the three generations of Hokage, who retreat again and again for a certain purpose. He was a swordsman who kept swords for forty years and did not drink a sip of wine.

On this day, Yagyu Masamune, as in the past, got up early to practice swordsmanship. When it was breakfast time, a large family of twenty or so people ate silently, and everyone's movements seemed to be carved out of a mold.

After breakfast, Yanagi Masamune instructed his disciples to practice swords, and the warm-up was to swing the sword a thousand times! The entire backyard was filled with the "hmm" sound made when the bamboo sword was split, and everyone present practiced very attentively and seriously.

Suddenly, Yagyu Masamune looked up at the door, only to see his son Yanagi leading two men in alone. Yanagi single-horse explained to the two men, and then ran to Yanagi Masamune, knelt down on one knee and shouted, "My lord, Minister Zuo and the chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs have come to visit!"

"Please!" Yagyu Masamune, like most swordsmen, cherished words like gold.

Only after obtaining permission did Minister Zuo and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs dare to set foot in this backyard. The two wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads, walked up to Yagyu Masamune, and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs said, "It's been a long time since I saw you! ”

"My family never attends banquets, as the daimyo knows. Yanagi quickly explained.

The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs smiled slightly: "The daimyo knows, and we know it, but the prime minister doesn't know!"

Yagyu Masamune glanced at the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and just one look made the chatter shut up. Minister Zuo felt that it was time to stand up, and he smiled and said, "Does the Secretary of the Ministry of War plan to keep the Ministry of Military Affairs at home all the time? As a state organization, it should need a regular office space. ”

Yagyu Masamune's gaze shifted to Minister Zuo, although the Ministry of Military Affairs retained the title of official and the title of Yulu, but the office space had long been removed from the Daimyo's Mansion. That's why Yanagi still calls his father an adult at home, because their house is the Ministry of Military Affairs of the Fire Country!

"What does Minister Zuo mean by that?" Yagyu asked with some joy, it would be great if the Ministry of Military Affairs could be re-established in the Daimyo's Mansion.

"If the Minister of War can make a single move, I, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Right Minister will fully support the return of the Ministry of Military Affairs to the Daimyo's Mansion. Minister Zuo avoided Yagyu Masamune's gaze and looked at Yagyu single-handedly and promised.

Ever since Spiegel and the Daimyo sang a duet last night to pick up the matter of arranging the land, Minister Zuo has been wondering why Kurama Spiegel dares to do what the Daimyo dare not do? Kurama Spiegel dared to do it because of his strength, and together they could threaten the Daimyo, but they couldn't threaten the prime minister. You are on strike? It just so happens that the Prime Minister's Office has trained nearly 100 reserve officials, and if you dare to strike, he will dare to change them.

What's more, the prime minister was born in Konoha Village! Minister Zuo is sure that he just went to the black market to buy the head of Xiang Shang, who was on the black market at a high price, and the people of the Kurama clan in Konoha Village over there dared to cut off his head!

Therefore, the last way he thought of was to find a powerful person to stand up for him, and it was through this form that he told Spiegel that he should pay attention to proportion, and they also have the ability to break the net when they are cornered.

And when it comes to strength, in the Land of Fire, except for the Hokage of Konoha Village, the strongest person they can think of is the one in front of them, the Secretary of the Ministry of Military Affairs, Yagyu Masamune!

Yagyu Masamune, became the patriarch of the Yanagi family at the age of fifteen, at the age of eighteen, he traveled the world with swords, challenging all kinds of samurai and kendo masters, sixty-three battles, sixty-one wins, one draw and one loss, and the person who drew him was the current iron country general Mifune, and the only person who defeated him was the Konoha White Fang Banner Mu Shuo Shigeru who had died! Therefore, this achievement not only shocked the samurai world back then, but even the ninja world also had legends about him. And this is his record twenty years ago, and how strong he is now, I'm afraid only he knows.

Hearing Minister Zuo's assurance, Yanagi looked at his father alone, and in his eyes his father was undefeated. Even if he faces the Hokage-sama of Konoha Village, his father will definitely not lose!

The Ministry of Military Affairs is something that the Yagyu family values very much, and Yanagi Singma is very keen to reshape the image of the Ministry of Military Affairs. Instead of being ridiculed by some second ancestors of the royal capital as 'cheating the emperor's grain' as it is now.

"As long as the Secretary of War agrees, we will allow the Ministry of Military Affairs to train 2,000 troops for national defense!" Seeing that Yanagi Masamune was unmoved, Minister Zuo gritted his teeth and increased his bargaining chips. Yanagi Danma on the side was even more excited, this is military power! Since the rise of Konoha Village, when have they ever seen such a thing as military power? At this time, he was eager to agree for his father.

Yagyu Masamune finally spoke: "I am a samurai of the Daimyo, do you have the orders of the Daimyo?"

Minister Zuo was stunned, how could he communicate with the daimyo for this kind of thing?

Yanagi Masamune understood when he saw Minister Zuo's expression, he shook his head and said, "In that case, please go back." ”

"Lord Yanagi, you are really going to lose the Ministry of Military Affairs like this, and many people have long been tired of the fact that the Ministry of Military Affairs does not work and still gets paid. The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs immediately jumped out and threatened, he didn't expect Yagyu Masamune to refuse, and he was a little out of proportion for a while.

Yagyu Masamune turned his head to look at the chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and a sword intent burst out from him, piercing the sky! The chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was so frightened that he went limp, and he collapsed directly to the ground.

"Send off!" Yagyu Masamune retracted his gaze, like this kind of jumping clown, he didn't even have to say a threatening word.

A trace of loss crossed Yanagi's eyes, but it quickly concealed the past, and said to Minister Zuo and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs: "Both, please!"

"We hope that the Secretary of War will consider it again. Minister Zuo left such a sentence and left with the frightened head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After sending the two away, Yanagi returned to the backyard alone, knelt on Yagyu Masamune's side, and asked a little incomprehensibly, "Why did your lord refuse? This is our chance to return to the Daimyo's Mansion!"

"It's just a fox and a fake tiger. Yagyu Masamune glanced at his son, and finally explained. From the time when the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs deliberately or unintentionally pointed the finger at the prime minister, Yagyu Masamune could see that these people just wanted to take advantage of him. A group of weak chickens, what qualifications do they have to trade with the strong? The Ministry of Military Affairs doesn't need anyone's help at all if he wants to return to the Daimyo's Mansion, he just needs to write to the Daimyo, and the Daimyo will not refuse if he wants to.

These people, really think that the people of his Yanagi family can only practice swords?

After coming out of the Yagyu family, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs looked resentful, and kept cursing Spiegel and Yagyu Masamune. These two guys actually made him so ugly, it's unforgivable!

"That's enough!" Minister Zuo couldn't stand the endless swear words, he glared at the other party before saying, "Yanagi Masamune is unwilling to make a move, who else in the entire Fire Country can withstand the pressure of Konoha Village......"

"My lord, actually... We can do this, this, this......" The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs leaned into the ear of Minister Zuo and whispered.

"If it is discovered, it will be a big crime!" Minister Zuo frowned, shook his head and said.

The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs asked with a smile, "Who cares except Yagyu Masamune himself?" ”

"Since it's your attention, then you can do it. Minister Zuo thought for a moment and added, "The sooner the better!"

"Okay. The chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs nodded, but he didn't know that Minister Zuo had quietly taken himself out......
