Chapter 67: A Pool of Red Lotus
"How do you feel about such a village, Chiha Haiyan?" Walking on the crowded street, following behind Orochimaru Yagami asked to walk with him, at this time the Uchiha Shisui who was alias Chiha Haiyan wasui.
"There was order, there was a tense atmosphere, and the whole village was full of life. Surveying the surroundings, Zhibo Haiyan replied. 'Except for the small population, it's like Konoha in wartime,' he thought to himself.
"When my father came to Tanokuni, it didn't take long for war to start here. The ninja village was founded in that war-torn environment by the trusted Daimyo of Tanokuni at the behest of his father. My father brought a powerful military force to the country and maintained a rare order and peace. Thanks to the efforts of Otoshinobi Village, the war gradually subsided, and the people of Tanokuni were relieved of the pain of war. ”
Keeping pace with Shiba Haiyan, Yagamiki whispered.
"The daimyo of Tanokuni followed his father's advice. Hehe, he has complete trust in his father. With efficient decrees, the country is emerging from the pain of war and embarking on the road to rejuvenation. Under the deterrence of the power of Otoshinobi Village, we have won a higher diplomatic status. Just the year before, we had made a trade agreement with the Land of Wind, whereby we would provide them with fresh crops and food, and they would give us gold or well-made ninja gear in return. ”
"Of course, the ninja shop in the village has been built, but due to the lack of qualified blacksmiths, it has not been able to meet the needs of ninjas. And if you buy ninja equipment from the country of craftsmen, it is too expensive, and it is not affordable for the newly established Otoshinobi Village. ”
"Of course, you'll learn about these things later. ”
Speaking of this, Yagami Qi showed his usual smile again.
"The most important thing is that this ninja village is new. It is not like Konoha that is hard to return, it can change with our will. ”
'What's more, it's going to be mine!'
"The new ninja village. With a new identity, bring a new forehead protector. I ・・・・・ really unaccustomed to this feeling. Zhishui held his forehead, and the subtle touch from his fingertips made him smile bitterly.
He wears a mask, and this mask is called Zhibo Haiyan. He will live in this capacity in Otoshinobi Village.
Shigego followed behind Yagamiki, and he looked around, looking at the people who lived here. He hadn't walked in a crowd for a long time. He was afraid of hurting others, and now he had a cage where he could hold the beast inside him. Yagamiki has the ability to easily stop him before he can do anything to hurt others.
Bai and Jun Maro walked together, talking softly. A chuckle or two from time to time, and this was the happiest day for these two children with painful experiences.
"Qi. I still have some business to attend to. Go and settle them down. "In front of the Daimyo's Mansion, Orochimaru said to Yagamiki.
"Got it," Yagami replied. After Orochimaru entered the Daimyo's mansion, he turned around and led the group towards Orochimaru's residence.
Orochimaru's mansion is the only building in Tanokuni that is not inferior to the Daimyo's mansion, which was built two years ago and was not completed until a year ago. At Yagamiki's suggestion, Orochimaru added Chinese-style cornices and Jiangnan pastoral landscape architecture here. The perimeter wall is about three meters high and stretches far away.
"It's beautiful, isn't it? Outside the mansion, Yagamiki said with a smile. Through the large courtyard gate, everyone can see the beautiful buildings inside.
"Young Master Yagamiki!" the two young ninjas guarding the door shouted with excited faces. Yagami looked at them in amazement.
"We are the children you rescued back then. Now we have passed the training of Ninja Village and officially become ninjas. Guarding Orochimaru-sama's mansion is our mission. The ninja on the right points to his forehead guard with a musical note pattern.
"Thank you so much for saving us. ”
"Oh, that's it. You don't have to. Do your job well. Strive to become a better ninja. Yagamiki said gently to the ninjas.
He stepped into the courtyard gate first. "This will be your home from now on. ”
"Home?"
These two words seem to have a special magic. With his heart beating violently, Bai and Jun Maro glanced at each other and stepped into the courtyard gate. Shigego and Chiha Petrel followed behind them.
"There are a lot of spare rooms on the west side of the compound, and you can choose the room you like. After a long journey, you'd better take a shower and soothe your spirits. I'll go first, and I'll take you to the restaurant for dinner in the evening. You can take a walk around this yard and get acquainted with the environment. Well, goodbye. ”
After listening to Yagamiki's words, Shiba Haiyan, Shiro, and Junmaro all left one after another, but Shigego followed behind Yagamiki.
"Won't you go with them? Yagami asked Shigego.
Shigego shook his head.
"Alright then, you can follow me. ”
The place where Yagami Qi was going was the training ground in the east, where Orochimaru had opened up a place for Yagami Qi to contact them. Yagamiki thought that Red Lotus, they should be there.
After returning from a long journey, a stream of longing is woven in my heart, long and long.
The two of them passed by a clump of bamboo, and the bamboo forest was verdant and lush. The rustling sound of the wind blowing through it is calming.
A pink crystal rose was nailed to the bamboo. Yagami glanced at the crystal rose on the bamboo, vivid and detailed. He smiled.
"Shigego, go away, it's not good if it hurts you. My friends seemed to have prepared a special welcome for me. He slowly pulled out the bone knife hanging from his back and pulled out Yagami Qidao.
Junmaro's bone knife is very easy to use, lightweight, hard, and full of toughness.
Following Yagamiki's words, Shigego retreated more than ten meters away, and did not stop until Yagamiki nodded slightly.
As soon as the song played, the fierce wind blew Yagamiki's clothes, causing Yagamiki's Magatama earrings to shake. Yagamiki placed the bone knife horizontally in front of him.
In front of him, a samurai dressed in a samurai tight-fitting costume with a crystal mask with only his chin baring was slowly walking towards him, standing still ten meters away.
"Welcome back, Lord Yagami. ”
"Yes. Make a move, Kazuki. Let me see how much your sword skills have improved. ”
The sword drawing technique and Iai's slashing of Yanagi Ichiki was very fast, and Yagamiki only blinked an eye, and a sharp chakra sword flew towards him.
Yagyu Kazuki is indeed a highly talented samurai, but the current era is no longer the era of samurai.
Hoshino Stream, Shining Star. The sword flashed, and the sword collapsed. After slashing away the flying sword, Yagami naturally used Hoshino-ryu's next form.
Hoshino Stream, Meteor
Like Yagamiki, Yagyu Kazuki also chose the same move, hand-to-hand combat, and the huge wind pressure blew the bamboo around the two of them.
"Heh, the strength is good, Yimu" Yagami said reluctantly, his face flushed, and Yagami reluctantly, or a child's body is not comparable to a fully developed adult in terms of strength.
However, Yagamiki had no intention of confronting Yanagi Ichiki, he flew up and used a trick to tease his yin legs, Yanagi Ichiki's heart jumped, and he retreated helplessly.
With this retreat, Yanagi's sword collapsed, followed by Yagamiki's continuous slashing with his short short knife. For a while, Yanagi, who was obviously stronger than Yagamiki in swordsmanship, fell into the defense.
Hoshino Stream: Stars
At one point, two o'clock, the stars twinkled, and the star points composed of straight piercing pierced Yagami Qi's body full of holes. However, it can't do any harm. Yagamiki's body coalesced like a liquid.
"You've developed a new move, Yanagigyu. It's amazing. But now you should rest. Yagamiki said. The eyes have turned into scarlet writing wheels.
With a small illusion, this warrior whose strength has reached the upper ninja level is already unable to move.
Yagami pouted, "How many times have I said Kazuki." Illusion is your weakness. ”
At the moment when these words came out, Yagami Qi also felt a chain tie to the cross and couldn't move.
The music that had been playing as if it had been accompanied by Yagyu and Yagamiki showed its role at this moment.
Magic Flute, Dream Sound Lock
'Cut, I just taught someone a lesson. Now I'm trapped by illusion, it's a shame. Yagami thought, unable to move.
Three crystal roses were already flying towards Yagamiki.
The red lotus can crystallize everything and the blood is the nemesis of Yagami Qi's hydration, and if it is pierced by the crystal rose, it means that Yagami Qi has lost.
Although he was very pleased that his companion had grown up so far, Yagamiki didn't want this feeling.
With a flick of the bone knife in his wrist, he knocked away the two roses that flew towards his chest, and at the same time, Yagamiki bit down on the roses that shot at his head.
The pupil force of the writing wheel stimulates the chakra in the body, and Yagamiki is in a tug-of-war with the flute that creates the illusion. This gave Yagamiki control of his entire arm.
He seals with one hand... Wind Escape, Gale Palm!
Huge wind pressure is directed at the location where Tayuya is located. In order to resist the fierce wind pressure from the flying attack, Tayuya can only defend passively.
A sound barrier blocked the gale in the shrill sound of the flute, and then it was the illusion that had to stop.
Regaining control of his body, Yagami smiled smugly. Under the observation of the Sharingan, he clearly saw where Tayuya was hiding, and successfully stopped the troublesome illusion.
With a jump, Yagami quickly approached Tayuya's location.
The red crystal blade flew down like a bird in Yakamiki's field of vision.
The long lilac hair fluttered in the air, matching the girl's young and beautiful face.
Looking at the beautiful figure of the red lotus flying like a bird, Yagami Qi was surprised to find that the little girl had grown into a charming girl.
Yagami flew out the rose in his mouth, and the rose was immediately split into crystal petals by the red lotus. When the crystal arm knife cuts off the stand-in wood in front of Red Lotus.
Yagamiki had already hugged Honglian's body from behind.
"Looks like I won. Leaning closer to Red Lotus's ear, Yagami Qi whispered.
Suddenly, Red Lotus's face turned red.
Falling to the ground, Yagami let go of the red lotus he was holding, and beckoned Tayuya to go with him in the direction of the pond in the courtyard.
"I brought you a gift. Yagamiki said.
In front of the pond, Yagami Qi opened the scroll of the seal, and a vat of red lotus appeared in front of Tayuya and Red Lotus.
"It's a pity that the petals have wilted, and we will have to wait until the next year to see the beautiful red lotus. Looking at the wilted red lotus, Tayuya said.
Honglian felt warm in her heart, she seemed to be able to see the beautiful scenery of the lotus pond in the coming year.
"You don't need to wait until next year. Yagamiki shook his head and smiled.
He moved a few red lotus plants into the pond and held the stems of the lotus flowers in his hands.
It's as if the lotus has sped everything up.
The lotus flower grew wantonly in Yakamiki's hands, and after a while, it filled the entire pond.
The red lotus flowers quietly bloom against the backdrop of the emerald green lotus leaves.
Yagamiki turned around and looked at the surprised Tayuya and Red Lotus.
He smiled, and the fragrance of lotus flowers filled the wind.
"I've always felt like there's something missing from this pond. Now, it's beautiful. ”
