The outer room of Matsugami Yoshimitsu's residence.

After Matsugami Yoshimitsu stopped Ryoki Nagamasa and Saigo Takahisa, he paused and said to Chiyome Mochizuki, who had been silent because she didn't understand things. "Lord Mochizuki, something has happened to the Matsukami family, and the main hall must return to Matsumoto Castle immediately. As for the relocation of Mochizuki Village to Matsumoto Castle, I'm afraid it will be up to Lord Mochizuki to deal with it himself. If we can't keep the agreement between you and me, this temple is very ashamed. Saying that, Matsugami Yoshimitsu bowed to Chiyo Mochizuki.

"Haha, His Royal Highness Yoshimitsu doesn't need to mind, the matter of the migration of Mochizuki Village can be solved by itself." Now that Matsugami Yoshimitsu has become the lord of the entire Mochizuki Shinobi, the Mochizuki Chiyo Girl naturally will not and dare not have any opinions.

"Thank you very much." After settling the matter of settling down in Mochizuki Village, Matsugami Yoshimitsu said to Saigo Takahisa. "Takahisa, do you estimate how much time it will take to get from Imabari Town to Matsumoto Castle if the main hall is in full swing?"

Matsugami Yoshimitsu was in no hurry when he arrived in Imabari, so he didn't know how long it would take to cross the two places.

"Haha." Saigo Takahisa, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately estimated the distance between the two places in his mind after receiving the order, and only reported it truthfully after a while. "Lord Kaiyu, according to the following estimates, it will take at least five days if we want to rush back to Matsumoto Castle from this Zhangmachi with all our might."

"Five days? It's too slow. Would it be faster if I rode a horse? Matsugami Yoshimitsu was not satisfied with Saigo Takahisa's estimate that it would take five days to return to Matsumoto Castle, and the opportunity brought by the death of both the Matsugami family father and son was fleeting, and there was no room for delay.

"My lord, if you ride a horse, I'm afraid it will take longer." Saigo Takahisa on the side smiled bitterly and rejected Matsugami Yoshimitsu's proposal, and then explained. "The lord doesn't know, Iga is mountainous, and there are few smooth paths. I've been war-torn for a long time in Ise, and it's mostly winding paths. As a result, there are many places between Imabari Town and Matsumoto Castle that are difficult for horses to walk, and if you ride a horse, you might not even be able to walk as fast as you can walk. ”

"What? It's troublesome, but it's a good time to hate. After listening to Saigo Takahisa's explanation, Matsugami Yoshimitsu couldn't help but be depressed.

"Haha, there is no way to solve problems for the lord." The lord was worried about the shame of the ministers, and Yoshimasa Yoshimasa and Takahisa Saigo couldn't help but feel ashamed when they saw Matsugami Yoshimitsu worrying about the hurry.

"Changzheng, Gao Jiu, you don't have to blame yourself, this matter cannot be changed by man." Matsugami Yoshimitsu is not a person who likes to be angry, and when he saw that his retainers blamed themselves, he hurriedly expressed relief.

"Your Highness Yoshimitsu, are you going to rush back to Matsumoto Castle as soon as possible?" At this time, Chiyo Mochizuki, who had not spoken, suddenly asked out loud.

"What do you mean by this? Is there anything you can do to help the main hall return to Matsumoto Castle as soon as possible? Hearing Chiyo Mochizuki's inquiry, Matsugami Yoshimitsu couldn't help but ask with anticipation.

"His Royal Highness Yoshimitsu, there is indeed a way for His Highness Yoshimitsu to return to Matsumoto Castle as soon as possible, but I don't know if His Highness can endure some hardships." Chiyo Mochizuki still has some concerns about helping Matsugami Yoshimitsu get there.

"Hahahaha, Lord Mochizuki, you underestimate the main hall too much. As a martial artist, he should be persevering, and what is he afraid of the hardships of the road. Matsugami Yoshimitsu saw that Mochizuki Chiyo Jurchen had a way to help him hurry, and couldn't help but smile and said.

"Haha, then I'll tell the truth. His Royal Highness Yoshimitsu knows that as ninjas, most of them are proficient in the art of foot forbearance. It would take five days to return to Matsumoto Castle by Nanameaki in a hurry, but if His Highness Yoshimitsu was not afraid of hard work and sat in a small sedan chair and was carried by another Nakashinobu Matsuchi from Mochizuki Village, then it would only take three days to return to Matsumoto Castle? "Chiyo Mochizuki saw that Matsugami Yoshimitsu was not afraid of hard work, so she said her own way.

"What? Forbearance? Is it really that amazing? The five-day journey could be completed in just three days, and Matsugami couldn't help but feel incredulous.

Although the majesty of Saigo Takahisa and Yoshiki Nagamasa on the side did not exceed Matsugami Yoshimitsu's majesty, their eyes also showed shock.

Seeing that everyone in the residence was shocked, Chiyo Mochizuki couldn't help but say with a smile on her face. "His Royal Highness Yoshimitsu, but do you think you're talking big again?" Although he is already subordinate to Matsugami Yoshimitsu, the ninjutsu of a low-status ninja can shock the samurai, and Chiyo Mochizuki is still very satisfied.

"How dare you, it's just that the main hall is a little curious about this forbearance technique." Of course, Matsugami Yoshimitsu knew the history of Hattori Hanzo's thousand-mile run, but he always regarded it as a legend, and he never imagined that today's legend could become a reality.

"In that case, let's explain to you the art of foot forbearance." Chiyo Mochizuki said sincerely.

"That's it, I'm grateful." Matsugami Yoshimitsu is also really curious about this forbearance technique.

"My lord, in fact, the art of forbearance is a necessary ninjutsu for ninjas. It only needs to meet three conditions to be successful in cultivating. Chiyo Mochizuki began to introduce the art of foot forbearance.

"Three conditions?"

"That's right, Your Highness Yoshimitsu." Chiyo Mochizuki continued. "There are many ninjutsu techniques that take advantage of the environment, and this is especially true of the art of ninjutsu.

Therefore, the first condition for cultivating the art of forbearance is to be familiar with the environment, in short, it is to know the path and take shortcuts, which can naturally reduce the time of rushing.

Second, most ninjas have to travel for a long time to carry out tasks, so most of them have excellent physical strength. However, Japan's mountainous roads are not well developed, and the ninja with such amazing foot strength can travel faster than the average person.

As for the third thing, that's the special rations for our ninjas. This ninja ration is made from a variety of ingredients, which can greatly replenish the physical strength of the person who eats it, so it can naturally increase the foot distance. As long as these three things are achieved, it can be called the art of cultivating patience. ”

"I see." Matsugami Yoshimitsu originally thought that ninjutsu was bluffing, but he didn't expect it to really have merit. If nothing else, this ninja ration that can increase combat power must be obtained by itself.

"In that case, I'll leave it to you to take care of the trip to the main hall of Lord Mochizuki." After Chiyo Mochizuki revealed the secret of her shinobi, Matsugami Yoshimitsu couldn't help but feel confident that he would return to Matsumoto Castle within three days.

"Haha, do your best when you make up your mind." As soon as he took refuge in Matsugami Yoshimitsu, he had the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and Chiyo Mochizuki was also very excited.

After the matter of rushing back to Matsumoto Castle was resolved, Matsugami Yoshimitsu arranged some specific details, and the temporary assessment was over. Because of their foot strength, Saigo Takahisa and Yoshiki Nagamasa were left behind and rushed back to Matsumoto Castle with Mochizuki. And Matsugami Yoshimitsu rushed back to Matsumoto Castle first under the escort of two ninjas from the Mochizuki family.

After the evaluation, Matsugami Yoshimitsu left Chiyo Mochizuki behind. "Lord Mochizuki, I wonder if Shinobu Mochizuki has a secret medicine that can control his mind." After witnessing the magic of ninjutsu, Matsugami Yoshimitsu couldn't help but feel curious about ninjutsu.

"A medicine to control the mind? His Royal Highness Yoshimitsu, there are drugs that poison people, stun people, and even make people stupid, but this medicine that controls the mind has never been heard of. "Chiyo Mochizuki had some doubts about Matsugami Yoshimitsu's question.

"Didn't you? That's it. Actually, the main hall is just kidding. Hahahaha. Matsugami Yoshimitsu was more relieved than disappointed after his delusions, and that ninjutsu being too powerful was definitely not something he was willing to accept as a samurai.

"Uh~~~ hahahaha." Although she was very puzzled, Chiyo Mochizuki also laughed. ......
