Chapter 50: Nishi-Ueno, the Takeda Clan

Fifty miles east of Edo, it is a fertile plain. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Standing on the plain is a small and small city, Nishi-Ueno, which is the largest city in the vicinity of 100 miles except Edo, surrounded by the sea on three sides, with beautiful scenery, and has been famous for its sea and land transportation since ancient times, and has developed commerce, fisheries, and agriculture.

In the center of Nishi-Ueno is a castle made of huge stones. It belongs to the Takeda clan, the owner of Nishiueno!

The Takeda clan has ruled the land since the Warring States period, although with the strength of the shogunate, the territories and power of the daimyo in various places have been weakened. However, the Takeda family is still the leading wealthy family in China!

Even the shogunate had to woo them at the right time, for fear that they would fall into the arms of the aspirants.

At this time, on the gate of the castle, a wooden pole carried an unrecognizable corpse, which could only be vaguely identified from the appearance as a middle-aged man with a broken leg.

On a nearby bulletin board, a notice was posted detailing how the man had infiltrated the castle, how he had eavesdropped on the secret information of the Takeda family, and how he had been caught and executed.

Well, in order not to damage the prestige of the Takeda clan, they wrote the suicide of Sarufei as an execution!

A crowd of well-wished people chattered around the bulletin board, seemingly interested in this kind of thing. In the midst of them, there was an ordinary teenager with a delicate face and sadness in his eyes.

"These bastards!" Haruma gritted her teeth, her nails almost digging into her flesh, staring at the corpse high up in the castle.

Uncle Ape Fei, I will definitely avenge you!

Absolute!

.........

Three days later, night fell, and the lights of the city went out one by one.

The red light district is still bustling, but the rest of the city is already dark.

Nishi-Ueno is not Edo, and the Takeda family is a representative of the conservative faction and is repulsive towards the Celestials because they believe that the arrival of the Celestial Beings will harm their interests.

So there are not so many advanced technologies here, and everything seems to be stuck in the Warring States period.

However, as time goes by, more and more people begin to enjoy the convenience of Tianren technology, and these ancient things will naturally be swept into the garbage heap.

Under the castle, a dark shadow suddenly appeared.

Walking around the corner, Haruta carefully examined the guards above the castle.

Before coming, he obtained detailed information about the Takeda family through multiple channels, and then after coming to Nishiueno, he even "visited" several local land snakes and seized some weapons and information. Therefore, he is very aware of the guards and buildings of the castle.

Probably because they were afraid of an attack by the shogunate or other organizations, the Takeda family was very tightly guarded. On the castle wall alone stood seven or eight guards with knives.

And inside the castle, there are hundreds of guards!

This is the power of the most powerful name in the country!

Careful to avoid the lights, Harita took out a few black round objects from his backpack and carefully placed them under the base of the castle wall, and then, he lit the fuse.

Zizi-!

The spark burns, and Haruma runs away.

"What's it?!" the guards on the female wall wondered.

Boom!

A huge explosion sounded, and before they could react, there were several deafening explosions.

Boom!

The walls of the castle were blown apart, and dirt and stones poured down, and huge cracks appeared in the walls one after another.

With a final loud bang, the tall walls on the side fell to the ground with a bang.

The guards turned pale one by one, their ears were full of buzzing, and a few of them who were close even bled and passed out on the spot.

"It's so powerful. "Harita's mouth is open, this is to prevent himself from being injured by the sound of the bomb. sighed on his lips, but the movements of his hands were fast.

With a whoosh in his hand, he threw a wall-climbing hook at him. I tried it a little hard with both hands, and it was very stable. Then, with a few clicks under his feet, Haruta leaped over the female wall with the agility of a gecko climbing a wall.

Circumventing walls is a common occurrence for ninjas, but it is very troublesome for samurai and the like. It is difficult to have this ability without special training.

"Enemy attack!"

Well, there is no need for guards to warn you now, and the earth-shattering noise that surrounds the aftermath has broken the silence of the city!

The guards of the Takeda family moved quickly, some of the patrols retreated to the center of the castle, others went to the main gate to check on the situation, and those who fell asleep gathered in an orderly organization.

On the female wall, Haruta is holding a katana, and there is a cold light in her eyes.

Shining on the stunned guards who were blown up, Harita showed no mercy and ended their lives one by one. Ape Fei's death made the kindness in his heart collapse.

Innocent?

Who is innocent in these troubled times?

The killing intent has never been so strong, and the blood has never been so boiling.

In the midst of the blood, the last sight reflected in the eyes of the guards was a pair of eyes full of destruction and the desire to kill. After ending the lives of these guards, Harita slashed down the wooden pole and lowered Sarutobi's body.

With long black hair, a face that resembles an orangutan, and a body that lacks one leg, this is the uncle who loves to talk and laugh! How could such a good person fall to this point?!

Tears flowed involuntarily.

Gently carrying Sarutobi's corpse, Haruta followed the rope down the castle and quickly left.

The explosion was only meant to cause panic, not an attack, and his primary purpose was to retrieve Uncle Sarufei's body. And not senseless revenge!

The Takeda clan is very powerful, and even an assassination may not be successful. He is very self-aware of his assassination methods, and can only be considered a good ninja.

To deal with the round-up of hundreds of guards, Lei Ya may not be able to do it!

Walking in the darkness, Harita began to hate this chaotic world.

It's war, it's the celestials, it's the shogunate, it's the Takeda clan, it's the most terrifying human heart in the world!

I'm going to put an end to this!, he made the decision secretly.

........

Following.

The owner of the city of Nishi-Ueno is almost going crazy. They frantically closed all entrances and exits to Nishi-Ueno, blocked all streets, and forced all shops to close for inspection.

Last night's explosion brought not only the destruction of a fortified castle, but also the honor of Takeda, a thousand-year-old family, to the ground!

As a famous family that has been inherited for thousands of years, a big name, they absolutely cannot tolerate such a thing!

Whether the attacker is the shogunate, the celestial, or the aspirant, they will pay the price!

The patriarch of the Takeda family, Takeda Shingen, a dignified middle-aged man, was furious in the hall.

"What are you guys eating?!Can't even catch a single person!Waste!" Takeda Shingen grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it in the face of the subordinate in front of him.

Boiling hot tea spilled on the face. The teacup fell to the ground, splitting apart in an instant, shattering the ground.

"Shingen-sama, we have sealed off the entire Nishi-Ueno, but there is no trace of the intruder in the castle. I'm sorry, Lord Shingen, I'll look for it again!" the subordinate didn't even wipe the tea, and bowed his head.

Takeda Shingen is a daimyo after all, the city government is very deep, and the previous anger and corruption are just a moment of anger, and at this time he has completely calmed down.

"Didn't he steal the body of that ninja, and start looking for it from there! The city can let go of martial law, remember, I must kill him!" At the end, Takeda Shingen's voice exuded a cold killing intent that could not be concealed.

"Yes!" the subordinate snapped.

After his subordinates left, Takeda Shingen sat on a chair, and after a while, he said behind him, "Go and contact Edo, just say that I agreed to the conditions!

"Yes, Mr. Takeda. A hoarse voice rang out. The figure walked out of the hall, wearing a hat and a wide gray robe, this person was Harita's old acquaintance - Ryunosuke Kawabe!
