Chapter 8: The Age of Heroes
Chiba Town, an important town in the northern part of the Fire Country. With well-developed transportation and a prosperous economy, it is an important base for trade and commerce.
With the increase in the number of people, it has also become one of the important places for information exchange.
Still wearing the eye-catching "Xiao" trench coat, the future enters this lively town through the city gate.
In the city, there are many voices and laughter, and it is completely impossible to see what it looks like to be in an era of war.
Without nostalgia for the prosperity here, the future went directly to a tavern, found a corner to sit down, and listened carefully to the movement in the hall. Here, in the future, you can get some information about the recent ninja world.
……
"Fukuda-kun, where have you made your fortune lately?"
"Where ......"
Filtering out some meaningless conversations, the future is looking for valuable information in the tavern.
“…… Senju and Uchiha, the battle of the feather robe seems to be coming to an end recently......" In a seat not far from the future, three middle-aged people were talking to each other.
Ninja...... All three are ninjas, and the forehead guards and ninja bags on their bodies speak for themselves.
"Perhaps......" One of them was a little distracted.
"Alas, it's better if it's over, if you continue to fight like this, maybe the Fire Country will be defeated......"
The conversation was a little heavy, and the three of them began to fall silent, bowing their heads and drinking sullen wine.
The three of them were silent but didn't end the topic easily, and after a few diners in their neighborhood heard it, they spontaneously began to discuss it.
“…… Not only the country of fire, but also several other large countries, not to mention small countries, which can't even maintain state power......"
"Relatively speaking, the Land of Fire is better, you haven't been to the Land of Wind, where there is a lack of materials, the environment is harsh, and for the sake of survival resources, ninja wars are just commonplace......
"Our Fire Country has a superior geography and abundant resources, and the regime is much more stable than other countries, but there are also a lot of ninja people living in this country...... "A middle-aged man in a Chinese robe who looks extraordinary in experience took over, "As we all know, it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to train a qualified ninja, and although the meat is large, it still can't stand the number of wolves. ”
"In this world, there is never a shortage of careerists, ninjas gather resources by being hired, careerists can hire a group of high-level thugs as long as they are paid, why not......"
"Alas, if there were only one ninja in our Fire Country, there would not be a three-clan war like the one now...... "Someone said what even he thought was an extravagant hope.
"Oh, it's enough to take your sin." The companion on the side teased, but he couldn't hide the extravagant hope in his eyes.
"Hehe......" The tavern regained laughter.
"It seems that people are yearning for peace...... "The future in the corner smiled, which made his belief in ending the Warring States even stronger. It didn't take long for Future to get up and leave.
The departed future does not know that the tavern has started a new topic because of him.
……
"Hey, look at that boy!" One of the ninja trio before looked at the back of the future departing with shiny eyes, and beckoned to his companion beside him.
"Huh? The trench coat with red clouds on a black background, could it be the Yamamoto Mirai who is known as the Grim Reaper?! His companion took a closer look and said in astonishment.
"Nani?!" Diners in the tavern are looking in.
"Is it really him?" Those who didn't see it asked the people around them.
"I can't be wrong, I won't be wrong about that unique trench coat!" The ninja who was the first to discover the future said confidently.
"Oh!"
"Oh my God! He was just sitting behind me?! A diner who was seated next to the place where he had been sitting before shouted in disbelief.
The crowd didn't laugh at him, because their condition wasn't much different.
"That's amazing!" The admiration came and went, and everyone was even more in awe of the future, because in this tavern that could be seen at a glance, everyone did not notice the future, including the three ninjas present.
"What a powerful concealment method...... The three ninjas looked at each other, bitter, and it didn't matter if the others didn't find out, as ninjas, they didn't even notice, and they were embarrassed.
"Speaking of which, how strong is Yamamoto Mirai now?" Someone raised a question.
"I don't know very well...... "After all, he is not a ninja, and ordinary people can only guess roughly through various rumors. However, there were ninjas here, so they ......
Looking at the gazes cast around them, the ninja trio didn't dismiss everyone's interest.
"We don't know how strong Yamamoto is in the future, after all, we don't have enough information, but at least it's much stronger than the three of us." The three of them were a little embarrassed, but they were revealing their own roots.
"Oh!" After listening to this, the people in the tavern had some ideas. In fact, these three ninjas are wandering ninjas with the strength of the elite ninja, and are now employed by a wealthy merchant in Chiba Town to protect the traveling caravan of the wealthy merchant.
"However, according to information circulating in the ninja world, a month ago, Yamamoto Mirai stopped a battle near Kutsu Town." One of the ninjas said solemnly, "At that time, the two sides of the battle were the Sakurai clan and the Heijo clan, and it is said that Yamamoto Mirai appeared directly on the battlefield and single-handedly defeated half of the ninjas, and then directly captured the patriarchs of both sides......"
"Oh my God!" Everyone on the side expressed their shock.
"I know those two ninjas," one member of the crowd immediately added, "and both ninjas are said to have more than a hundred ninjas. ”
"Well, that's right, and there are three shinobi on each side," the ninja continued, "but this kind of combat power was directly suppressed by force, and finally ended the war under the peace meeting chaired by Mirai Yamamoto." ”
"Wow!"
"That's amazing!" In addition to exclaiming, everyone could no longer express their excitement at the moment.
"I heard that Yamamoto Miku is only fifteen or sixteen years old this year, I don't know if it's really ......"
"It's true!"
"Alas, a young genius, I'm afraid there is no peer in the world who can compete with Yamamoto Future!"
"Eh, Fukuda-kun, you're wrong, to say that the young genius is not just Yamamoto Miku......"
"Oh? Your Excellency has something to say! As soon as the young genius's words began, everyone began to tell what they had seen.
"If nothing else, who do you think of when you talk about Senju and Uchiha recently?" One asked with a smile.
"Thousand-armed Buddha? Uchiha Tajima? "For people outside the ninja world, the name of the ninja patriarch is the most representative.
"Guess again!"
"Could it be Senju Tsuruma and Madara Uchiha!" A crowd of onlookers had a flash of thought, and the words blurted out.
"That's right," the questioner nodded, and continued, "The Thousand Hands Pillar defeated Shangnin when he was six years old, and this strength is not comparable to ordinary people. And that Uchiha Madara can fight with the Thousand Hands Pillar, so this strength is not weak! ”
"Well, it does......"
"In addition, there is also Hinata's Zuoyun of the Hyuga clan, and Sarufei Sasuke of the Sarufei clan...... These are all young geniuses that have appeared in recent years, and this is still in our Fire Country, and there must be many young geniuses in other countries......"
