[Can you ask a question?] This sir. 】

Wise Kogoro said suddenly.

[Hmm...... You ask. 】

The man's tone became much kinder.

[Autumn is here, are the horses in Kanto fat? 】

Autumn is high and the horse is fat, nodding and nodding.

[Not bad. 】

[Have you finished harvesting all the rice in Sagami?] 】

[uh...... Not yet, why are you asking this? 】

[Oh, in Odawara Castle, is there still enough sackcloth? ] 】

【…… Sufficiency, what's the problem? 】

Wise Kogoro then asked:

[Recently, outside Odawara Castle, the miners of the iron mine, as well as the blacksmiths in the city, are they all very tired. 】

【……】

The man knew that there must be a mystery in Wise Kogoro's words, but he couldn't guess what he was trying to say.

[Oh, if you look back and see Masamu and Sagamimoru in the clan, say hello for me, don't get tired of your body......]

[Ah!! 】

The man screamed in fright.

That's when he reacted.

Horse, refers to war horses.

Rice, refers to military rations.

Linen refers to military uniforms and flags.

Miners and blacksmiths, referring to swords, but also iron cannons.

As for the clan Masako and Sagami Mamoru, then there is no need to guess.

Originally, from the moment he knew that the other party was Wise Kogoro, Wind Demon Kotaro knew that he was playing big this time.

If the kidnapper is only a retainer of the Shibata family, then the influence will only exist within the Shibata family at most, but the problem is that the person in front of him, once something happens, the influence may be more than so small.

Originally, Wind Demon Kotaro still had the idea of luck in his heart, thinking that as long as this person didn't reveal his identity, he would have put him back, and the turmoil in this matter would last for a while at most, and then it would pass.

However, it's good now, although the other party didn't guess his identity, he directly detained the basin on the head of the Hojo family!

Of course, the mastermind behind this matter is indeed the Hojo family, who is not wrong.

But even the Hojo family didn't want to make a big deal out of it.

A few months ago, just at the Kasuga Festival, the Hojo clan and Oda Nobunaga shook hands and made peace, saying that they would work hard to maintain the peace and prosperity of Japan, and now it has only been long before the news of the Hojo family's kidnapping of the Oda retainers has spread. In this way, I am afraid that there is no one in the world who will not laugh at the Hojo family.

Moreover, the most terrifying thing is that the kidnapped person seems to be the son-in-law of Oda Nobunaga.

Even though Oda Nobunaga is not a person who protects his shortcomings, his son-in-law was kidnapped by outsiders. Just imagine who it is, who can swallow this breath, and besides, even if Oda Nobunaga doesn't think about his son-in-law, for his own face, I'm afraid he won't let go of the Hojo family easily.

This will detonate a new round of [Kanto War]!

In the heart of the wind demon Kotaro, Imai and Takizawa, the two troublemakers, have a thousand knives!

But think about it, even if this matter has nothing to do with the Hojo family, but ...... Dare to kidnap Wise Kogoro.,Can't get along with the Oda family.,Except for Shimazu Yoshihisa in Kyushu and the head of Nagamune's department who is struggling in Shikoku.,It seems that there is no one else.,In addition,This is Kanto.,Two people.,Can you come all the way here?

If he was a wise Kogoro, once he was kidnapped here, I am afraid that he would only think of the Hojo family.

What am I doing?

Wind Demon Kotaro couldn't wait to pick up a stone from the ground and smash himself to death.

[By the way, my lord, I haven't asked for your honorific name. 】

[uh......]

[When I was in Kyoto, I had seen all the adults of the Hojo family, and this adult, you were very good-looking. 】

Wind Demon Kotaro thinks:

That's right, there are so many masters in the Hojo family, if you can still notice my existence, there will be ghosts!

When Hojo was on Luo, the wind demon Kotaro played a flag book in order to protect the Hojo clan, but this identity also happened to fit the image of others Gao Mada, the only drawback is that he was mixed in the crowd, but he was not too idle.

Around this time, Kotaro the Wind Demon met Akechi Kogoro, who was in charge of receiving the Kanto people.

[My lord, we are members of the Seven Parties, and we tied you up to negotiate with the Shibata family and ask them to return our territory, so we ......]

The so-called "Seven Parties" refers to the [Musashi Seven Parties], they are active in the Musashi and Ueno areas, after the rise of Takeda Shingen, the territory of the Musashi Seven Parties in Ueno was basically swallowed up by the Takeda family, and the remnants of the Musashi Seven Parties originally planned to defect to the Hojo family, but they were also refused. In such a desperate situation, this group of reckless people had no choice but to fall into the grass and engage in the business of killing people and extorting money.

[This lord, it turns out that you are the Seventh Party. 】

[That's right.] 】

Because the Musashi Seven Communists are basically mixed in the territory of Musashi, although they always come to Ueno to commit crimes, the strength of the Shibata family is beyond the reach of the whip, so they have to be surprised by this.

[The problem is,Shibata Danmasa may not think so.,I'm afraid the only one who dares to kidnap my wise Kogoro is the Hojo family.] 】

【Wise Lord.】 】

Wind Demon Kotaro suddenly smiled coldly.

[That's just right, if the shogunate and the Hojo family go to war, it will be exactly what we want. 】

[Do you want to say that you, as the Seven Parties, can become samurai again in the form of war? 】

[Well, do you think it's such an honorable thing to be a bandit? 】

[So you tied me up?] 】

[Yo, the wise man is so bold, he looks like he is not afraid of anything, and he is really a general. 】

[What do I have to be afraid of, the people who want to arrest me anyway are all from the Hojo family, and they ......]

And what? 】

[Sorry? 】

[Huh?! 】

[Caught me such a [hot potato], this adult, you must be very embarrassed now, you don't dare to keep me, you can't hurt me, but you don't dare to let me go casually, so, this adult, you're only afraid that it's the real panic, right? 】

【……】

Wind Demon Kotaro was choked and speechless, Wise Kogoro is really not a simple person, and he actually guessed his mind completely.

This is the wise Kogoro who defeated Date Masamune's 50,000 army? …… Sure enough, there is a set!

However, Wind Demon Kotaro is not an old man who has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and if he is [cold], he will be too sorry for his name.

He smiled wryly.

This is not only to scare Wise Kogoro, but also to give himself courage, and he can't just be led by Wise Kogoro.

[Wise man, your words are a little incorrect. 】

[Oh? 】

[You just said that you are a hot potato to me, and I dare not hurt you? 】

[Isn't it?] 】

[Okay, let's verify whether this sentence is correct.] 】

Wind Demon Kotaro smiled even more grimly, but deep down, a feeling of unease was spontaneously arising.

[Imai, Takizawa, you two come in! ] 】

[Hi Yi! 】

The two of them walked in and saw that Akechi Kogoro and Wind Demon Kotaro were [talking and laughing], and they immediately felt a burst of surprise.

Where did you two put the wise man's sword? 】

[Here, give, sir.] 】

Takizawa farts and gave Wise Kogoro's [left text] hands and gave it to Wind Demon Kotaro.

【Wait a minute! 】

Wise Kogoro suddenly said loudly.

Wind Demon Kotaro smiled.

[What's the matter, Wise Lord, I regret it now, it's a little late......]

[No, I have nothing to regret, I just want to ask, since [left text] is in your hands, what about [Skyrim]? 】

[[Skyrim]? 】

[Where did you put my ribs? 】

[That,]

Imai shrugged his shoulders and made a very innocent expression.

[I don't know, I threw it at the gate of the city, and I don't know who picked it up. 】

[You guy! That's a rib given to me by the general, and if I lose it, you and I will both suffer. 】

[Hahaha......]

Takizawa laughed presumptuously.

[Don't brag, why don't you say that the knife was given to you by the Buddha? In that case, at least we'll be scared for a while. 】

Imai also sneered, neither of them believed the words of wise Kogoro.

【…… Alas! 】

Wise Kogoro let out a long sigh.

[I'm afraid I can't tell you clearly, that ...... This adult? 】

He looked at Kotaro the Wind Demon again.

[What's wrong?] 】

Wind Demon Kotaro, the smile is still so eerie.

[Did you just say you were going to hurt me? 】

[Yes, you are not allowed to beg for mercy now.] 】

[Who told you that I asked for forgiveness?] 】

Wise Kogoro suddenly fell to the ground, his bound hands up.

[I understand the rules of your business, cut your fingers, cut them, ten fingers, you choose! 】

【……】

【……】

The three of them were stunned, especially the Wind Demon Kotaro, who originally wanted to use [Cut Finger] to scare Wise Kogoro when he was a little calmer, but Wise Kogoro even had the posture of cutting his finger in advance, which immediately embarrassed him.

[Wise Lord, do you think I dare not cut it? 】

[No, of course you dare, I've always believed it, you see, I've even posed, you cut it quickly...... The other two adults, listen up, if I cry out in pain later, I will be my grandson! 】

【……】

【……】

【……】

The three of them were speechless, the person in front of them was not only not afraid of anything, but also looked very kind!

was stunned for a long time, and finally it was Wind Demon Kotaro who slowly pulled out the knife.

[I didn't intend to be real, but, Lord Wise, your quick words have forced me out of the stage, I admit, you are really a great person, but...... Your fingers, now I have to cut them if I don't cut them, otherwise there will be no steps to go down. (To be continued.) )
