Chapter 42: A Year Later
Outside the courtyard, on the roof. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Sakai Fuji's face was covered under a black veil with a burst of anxiety. He also heard the sound of the fight just now, and at first he thought that the mission had failed, but then he saw the people who escaped in a panic, and his heart was suddenly certain.
On the one hand, his existence is to clean up the head and tail of the "rookie" of Qingtai, so those who escaped were naturally killed by him mercilessly!
But now, all of a sudden, there was silence inside.
Noise, noise, and crying are not terrible, but such dead silence is the most terrible!
Could it be that there are other masters here?!
Sugimoto's guy wasn't killed, was he? If he hadn't been killed, why hadn't he come out?
The ninja was extremely patient, so he waited patiently for a while, but no one came out. Sakai Fuji couldn't sit still. He's going to go in and have a look.
Instead of climbing over the wall, I walked through the main entrance.
Then, he was stunned by what he saw.
In the empty courtyard, at this time, there were members of the Hojo Group everywhere, blood was everywhere, and the wooden door collapsed. Some are not dead, lying in the place and struggling.
In the middle, Haruma was holding a knife, and in front of him was a dead corpse. There were only a few wounds on the corpse, the only fatal wound was in the throat, and the corpse's head was drooping.
Hojo right-to-do!
Sakai approached and saw a strange smile on the face of Hojo's Uto's corpse.
What is going on when you die?!
"Mission accomplished?" asked Sakai with a hint of trill.
Dozens of people were actually killed by him alone! What kind of combat effectiveness is this? Judging from the scene, Harita did not use any gunpowder, poisoning, or other means at all, but killed them with real knives and guns!
Could it be that this person will become the strongest ninja of the next generation?!
Thinking of a certain figure, Sai Fuji's body couldn't help but tremble. No, it can't be, that monster can't be defeated by humans!
"Hmm. Harita snorted, her hand stroking her abdomen, her eyes wandering.
He's hurt!
Although it has been treated, there is still a dull pain.
Looking at the hojo Youto in front of him, whose eyes were wide open, but died with a smile, the corners of Harita's mouth twitched. Is it true that if you don't die, you won't die?
Normally, in the face of a plural number of enemies, Harita's strategy is to use her super speed to take out the minions first, and then concentrate on dealing with the strongest.
But before, in the face of the joint efforts of the three of them, out of confidence in his own strength, Haruta brazenly directly faced the strongest Hojo Youdou! As for the other two dragon sets, they were automatically ignored by him.
Then he was badly taught a lesson.
Hojo's strength is indeed good, but that's not the point, he was inspired by Harita to trap the beast, and at the last moment he used a terrifying knife technique!
Only attack, not defend, the knife is deadly!
If you don't die, it's not me!
The terrifying sword technique, the huge power of Hojo's right fight, and the assistance of two diehards, Harita fell into embarrassment for a while.
The speed of self-pride is completely useless! What the speed of the shot, what the subtlety of the moves, in the face of this opponent who "either you die or I live", all the skills, all the combat experience, completely useless!
Every knife of Hojo's right fight carries a tragic momentum! A kind of indomitable determination!
Because of this, Haruta was slashed by the other party. If his speed is fast enough, I'm afraid that one knife can directly cut him in half!
However, he did not understand, and it was difficult for him to have such an awareness.
In his kendo, life is important.
How could a person think of using such a move of "killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred", Harita is a very calm person, so he can't understand the other party's opinion. This left him in a state of confusion.
Don't I know the true way of a samurai?
"Sakai Fuji, you go back first. I've got a little bit of something to do. Haruma's eyes were in a trance.
Sai looked at Harita, then at the tragic scene, and nodded.
He could see that there seemed to be something wrong with Harita's mental state, could it be the first time to kill someone? No, Sakai was amused by his thoughts. How could such a powerful guy be the first time to kill someone?
The ninjas of the Imperial Court don't need to follow the instructions of their bosses when they don't have a mission. Just like going to work, your private business at home will not be taken care of.
Just complete the task.
After Sai left the company, Harita rested again, got up, and touched the corpse.
The kind of knife technique that Hojo used at the end always made him care a lot. In addition, this product is also the boss of the street, so there should be a lot of money.
A penny is hard to beat a hero.
Harita sighed and examined it carefully with nausea.
Finally, with a strange mood, Haruta embarked on the journey home.
........
A year later, the Imperial Court.
Haruta walked into the courtyard, took a look at the old man from Hanzo, and came to the backyard. Looking at Harita's back, Hattori Hanzo had a smile on his face.
Payroll Office.
When Harita walked in, there was a sudden silence inside.
"Hey, this guy is that horrible little imp - Harita Sugimoto?!" a young man whispered.
"Well, Nakashinobi Sugimoto Harita, the fastest promoted ninja in the past ten years! Looking at Harita's back, the middle-aged man next to him had a hint of solemnity on his face.
Those who come to receive a salary naturally cannot have forbearance. Imperial court,There are only a few upper ninjas in total?And middle ninjas,Generally, they are characters who can take charge of themselves.,His subordinates are in charge of dozens of lower ninjas.。
For example, Harita's landlord, Ape Fei, can climb and leap in the trees like an ape, except for those few Shangnin, who basically don't shoot, his hand-to-hand fighting ability is the first in the Imperial Garden!
The salary of the middle ninja is naturally separate from the lower ninja.
"Hey, I heard he's still a freak, and he has to choose his own tasks. The leader is really, so indulgent to him!" said the other, with a hint of jealousy in his tone.
Doesn't being able to freely choose a task mean that you can freely adjust the difficulty?
If you want to have the right to choose your own tasks, you first have to reach the upper ninja, but the upper ninja doesn't have many tasks to do in the first place. Every time you use the task of Shangnin, it means a major event that shakes the party!
Although Sugimoto Harita's strength is good, he won't let the entire Imperial Court change the rules for him!
"No, you're wrong. The middle-aged man, who obviously knew a lot of things, shook his head and said, "The task he refused was not based on difficulty. To be more precise, the tasks he completed were all incredibly difficult!"
Looking at the young man's disapproving expression, the middle-aged man spoke, "Do you remember the fire in Dongguan last month?"
"Well, what's wrong? I heard that the notorious leader and cadres of the Dongguan Group were all killed in the fire. Eh, you say this has something to do with Sugimoto?"
"Hehe, that task was completed by Harita Sugimoto. The middle-aged man smiled.
"Huh?!Tell me what's going on?" the man gasped, and the people around him began to stir.
The Dongguan Gumi, one of the "famous" underworld gangs in Edo, is said to have some kind of relationship with some people in the shogunate, and there are hundreds of ronin thugs under him.
Unexpectedly, such an underworld organization that crisscrossed Edo was destroyed overnight!
What's even more terrifying is that this task is still taken by Harita Sugimoto alone!
However, no matter how others urged, the middle-aged man never spoke again. Because just now Haruma glanced at him when he left.
What a terrible guy! A cold sweat broke out on the middle-aged man's face.
