As soon as Shui Wuyue Qi came out of the laboratory, a subordinate immediately came up from the side and said to Shui Wuyue Qi respectfully: "My lord, Lord Kaguya Kenshin has invited you to the General Staff Headquarters to discuss with you the matter of sending troops to our country. ”

"Sending troops?"

Shui Wuyue Qi asked with some confusion.

Nowadays, in the Fog Hidden Village, there is a raging undercurrent between the civilian faction of Mizukage Akiyama Hidewa and the wealthy ninjas led by Kaguya and Mizuki Moonless. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for the two sides to reach an agreement to send troops.

But he didn't ask much, but said to the subordinate, "I know, you go back, I'll go at once." ”

Moments later, Mizuki saw Kaguya Kenshin in the General Staff Headquarters building.

This building, which is no less gorgeous than the Mizukage Building, was actually originally the office space shared by Kaguya Kenshin, Mizuki Tsuki, and Genshi.

In terms of institutional design, unlike the Mizukage's office, which is completely centered on Mizukage himself, there are three core personnel of the Fog Hidden Staff Headquarters, namely the Chief of Staff Kaguya Kenshin, and the two deputy chiefs of staff, Mizuki and Yuanshi.

Of course, since Genshi is a close confidant of Mizukage, giving him the position of deputy chief of staff is only a face-saving effort. In terms of authority, within the scope of the General Staff Headquarters' authority, he is completely incomparable to Kaguya Kenshin and Shui Wuyue Kai. Naturally, he never worked in the General Staff Headquarters building.

And the remaining two, Kaguya Kenshin and Shui Wu Yueqi, because Shui Wu Yueqi personally does not like to work here, but prefers to handle affairs in the family. As a result, only Kaguya Kenshin himself is the only one in this building.

As soon as the two met, Kaguya Qianxin immediately said to Shui Wuyue Qi with a serious face: "Qijun, the situation is not good. ”

After saying that, Kaguya Kenshin waved his hand again and said to the subordinates around him: "Martial law, no one is allowed around, and trespassers will be killed." ”

"Yes. ”

The subordinate said yes loudly, and then waved his hand, and immediately a large number of Kaguya ninjas stood around.

Although Mizuki didn't know what Kaguya Kenshin was, he nodded and motioned for Mizuki Ninja to also participate in martial law.

For a while, there were only a few of their respective cronies and subordinates around the two, and in the distance there were a large number of ninjas of the two clans with solemn faces.

Kaguya Qianxin nodded, signaled to his subordinates, and one of his subordinates behind him immediately took out a letter from his arms, then held it in both hands, dedicated it to Shui Wuyueqi, and said, "Your Excellency, please take a look." ”

Shui Wuyue didn't know what kind of pass Hui Yeqian's letter was selling, so he took the letter, tore it open directly, and opened the letter inside, but his eyes were frozen.

Then, Shui Wuyue Qi sighed, then raised his head and said to Kaguya, "I had long guessed that this day would come, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly. ”

Hui Yeqian's face was murderous, he looked at Shui Wuyue Qi, and asked, "Qijun, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

Shui Wuyueqi rubbed his sideburns with a headache, and regardless of whether there was any temptation in Kaguya's words, he said directly: "I'm afraid I can't do it." After all, they have big roots and deep roots, and two or three percent of the officials of the entire country are their people. If they are really moved, not to mention whether the country will be in turmoil, the other two families will probably be jealous of us. ”

Kaguya Qianxin only made a murderous and unbearable appearance on the surface, but in fact, what Shui Wuyue said was also clear in his heart.

Therefore, as soon as Shui Wuyue Kai finished saying this, Kaguya Qianxin directly continued: "But we can't back down just yet. Now that the ninja war is imminent, if they stab us in the back at that time, then you and I are in danger of annihilation. ”

Shui Wuyueqi nodded, expressing his approval of Kaguya's humble letter, and said, "However, this matter has to be considered in the long run. ”

……

Kawanokuni.

The land of Kawanokuni may seem huge, but in reality, most of the area is densely forested. Although this made their country unsuitable for farming, on the other hand, it also protected them from foreign invasion from a certain angle.

Ninjas were able to navigate these forests with ease, but in the final analysis, it was up to a large number of administrative officials and samurai armies to establish a solid rule over the region. For the newly conquered lands, it is necessary to bring in a large number of materials from the mother country to support the political order established in the country.

There was a "whoosh" sound, like the sound of a wild beast jumping past, and a very small scratch was left on a certain tree.

After a while, two men in ninja uniforms came from behind, hurrying towards this direction.

"Huh?"

The two of them had just skimmed over the area when one of them seemed to notice something was wrong, let out an "um" sound, and then motioned for his companion to stop.

When the two of them came to the scratch, one of them stretched out his hand to measure the scratch, then lowered his head and said to his companion, "Yes, this is indeed ......."

"Uh......"

But before he could finish speaking, he suddenly heard a strange noise from his companion.

His heart pounded, and before he could lift his head, he immediately bent over and stepped back.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped back, he felt a chill in his lower back, and then lost all sensation.

Mizuki Yuta pulled out the kunai from the other party's body, and then pushed the other party's body off the tree with his hand, shouting to the four directions, "Send someone to guard and take a rest." ”

As he said this, there was a sound of rustling all around, and then several ninjas fainted their tracks. Some of them consciously walked into the distance and were in charge of guarding, while the others came to Yuta Mizuki's side.

Shui Wuyue Yuta looked at these people, touched the sweat on his face, and said to everyone: "The Ghost Lantern Clan just didn't expect that not only did we not flee in embarrassment, but we also dared to gather and turn around and ambush them, which is why they were so easily attacked. But then, they will definitely not do this, and they will definitely send a large army to encircle us. That is, this time, we are really going to retreat. ”

Hearing his words, several people around him were silent.

These few people are different from Shui Wuyue Liangping, Shui Wuyue Liangping They are from the family, and they can return to the family directly after the mission, and they have nothing to do with this place.

But the few people in front of them, led by Yuta Shui Wuyue, were a small group that single-handedly developed the intelligence network of the Shui Wuyue clan in the country of Kawanoki under the orders of Shui Wuyue. For them, the withdrawal to the Water Nation not only means that their mission has failed, but also that their business has been useless for a long time.
