Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Fuse for the Beginning of the Four Valleys

"There's a letter from there, Aye. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Ishimaruya, Yoshiwara-cho, Edo Castle, Ishimaru Jinuchi excitedly slapped the letter on the table.

"Our big net is finally about to start closing!"

Ah Ye hurried over.

"Wow, Toyotomi is really fast. It's only been a few days, and it's already ready to go. I really don't know what words to use to describe Tokugawa Ieyasu to let Tokugawa Ieyasu go to Beijing. ”

"That young master of the four men is really amazing. In the letter, he wrote out the process in detail and asked us to improvise. Now it's convenient for us to do things. ”

Ishimaru pointed to the end of the letter to Aye,

"The most important thing is that His Royal Highness the Four Men also said that if the thing succeeds, I will give the two of us the status of samurai, and let me take Shimaru as the Miao character and choose a name for myself~ I'll write back to him now and tell him my new name~"

Ishimaru was about to start writing happily, but he was complained by Ah Ye.

"Keihachiro...... You're too optimistic, aren't you...... Before we even get started, you're starting to think about the rewards ahead. ”

"Ah Ye, don't worry~ Speaking of which, what's the name of that Fourth Male Highness?"

"Hidemitsu, Toyotomi Hidemitsu...... Anyway, why can't you even remember the name of such an important person......

"Uh-huh~ Thank you, Ah Ye~ Then take the word 'light'......"

Ignoring Ah Ye's complaints, Ishimaru happily wrote the two big words "light length" on the paper.

"From now on, my name will be Ishimaru Keihachiro Mitsucho."

Ishimaru looked up at Ah Ye and said with a smile,

"Ah Ye, do you think I'm going to fail?"

Ah Ye looked at Ishimaru.

His funny face, which was obviously like a funny geisha, said such serious and confident words, which made Ah Ye a little unbearable.

"Alright, let's go too, Aye! Here we go, it's time for our Wind Demon Ninja! ”

"Yes, yes."

Ishimaru smiled with great confidence and took Aye's hand. Ah Ye also uncharacteristically did not break free, and let him hold his hand.

……

……

Mid-November, Edo Castle.

Finally the day has come. This was a fateful day for the Iga Kinkai Society.

"Everyone, are you ready?"

Heigoro secretly recruited hundreds of people from the Tongxin Society in his home.

"Today is the day that will determine the fate of all of us in the future. Whether we will continue to be oppressed by that guy in Hattori, or usher in the wise new leader of the righteous man, it will depend on the efforts of all of us! ”

Everyone rose up and responded.

"Our family of seven is ready!"

"So is our family! My daughter-in-law is helping her 10-year-old son get dressed and ready for battle! ”

"I don't have a family, but I'll do my best!"

The family members of the Harmony Association are also fully ready, although nearly 1,000 people are still in their respective homes, but once they receive the order, they will all gather together and start to launch a fight.

"Wait a minute, Iwa Nanasuke and I and a few others will be ordered to patrol Yotsuya according to Hattori's plan, and once we start a conflict with Hattori, we will release flares! At that time, the remaining 100 or so of you will gather all your families together and start to launch a campaign against the castle town! ”

"Oooh oh !!"

"So everyone, let's get started right away!"

Everyone immediately quietly left Heigoro's house and returned to their assigned positions.

"Let's go too."

Heigoro said to the dozen or so most hateful colleagues who were patrolling Yotsuya with him. Everyone nodded and went their separate ways.

……

……

More than a dozen people, including Heigoro, were all patrolling Yotsuya, but they were divided into different streets and time periods.

It's the time of Iwa Nanasuke's patrol, and he's walking down the street as usual, and although he looks the same as usual, his nerves are already tense all over his body, ready to guard against attacks that may come from all directions.

Although Heigoro and the others did not show up, they were all hiding in the dark, observing the development of the situation so that they could act at any time.

They just hid quietly in the shadows. But the eyes did not relax for a moment.

Today, the streets of Yotsuya are unexpectedly quiet, as if everyone has moved away, and it is quiet.

Although Iwa Qisuke appeared calm and normal on the surface, he was actually already in a cold sweat.

Although the third-generation Hattori Hanzo Masashi is a disgusting person with rough behavior, his ninjutsu is not comparable to ordinary people of the Tongxin Society. In this regard, he is enough to inherit the name of his father Masanari's 'Hanzo'.

Iwa Nanasuke will definitely not be able to win against him, even if more than ten people from Heigoro lurking near him go together, they may not be able to rob and kill Masashi on the spot. Therefore, Heigoro's decision was for more than ten people, including himself, to release a signal as soon as they attacked Iwachisuke, and then fight to the death with Zheng, and drag it out for as long as they could.

Heigoro arranged for the rest of the Kinkai's colleagues to immediately organize their families and officially launch a campaign in the castle town to kill Edo Castle and ask the shogun Hidetada to revoke the leadership of the Kinkai. At that time, General Xiuzhong will definitely send someone to arrest General Zheng. That's what the people of the Harmony Society think.

Most of the current members of the Tongxin Association are from peasant backgrounds, a group of kind people, and of course very naΓ―ve.

In short, now Iwa Nanasuke has inspected the temple area of Chozenji Temple in Yotsuya. It was quieter than the street before, and even the daily chanting of the temple was gradually inaudible.

By this time, the road by the temple was still very ordinary.

However, Iwa Nanasuke's nerves, which had been tense, suddenly felt a gust of wind coming towards him.

β€œοΌοΌοΌβ€

Before his head could react, Iwachisuke's body had already turned around on its own, and at the same time, he took out the ninja knife in his waist and swung it back!

Only a sharp metal grinding sound was heard, and Iwa Nanasuke reflexively collided with someone's sharp short knife, stuck with each other, and fell into a state of stalemate with each other.

Iwa Nanasuke's heart pinched a cold sweat. If he hadn't anticipated a sneak attack today and tensed his nerves all day, it is estimated that with his usual temperament and style, he would have been successfully attacked by the person in front of him by now, and he didn't even know how he died.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hmph, I didn't expect that, with your usual appearance, I thought I could get it all at once. ”

The tall man in black in front of him spat out the words in a low tone with a slightly surprised sneer.

"Sure enough, it's you...... Hattori Hanzo ......"

Iwa Nanasuke looked at the man with the black veil on his head, and even if he didn't have to guess, he could guess that he was Hattori Masasa.

He also sneered in return, but his palms kept breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Well, if it's exposed, there's nothing you can do...... But it doesn't matter, because you're going to die here. ”

Zheng sneered and slowly increased the strength of his hand.

Iwa Nanasuke felt like he was about to lose his legs.

As expected, he is worthy of the man who inherited the name of "Hanzo", he is like a fierce beast hidden in the dark night, slowly opening his bloody mouth towards Iwachisuke, biting the other party's body little by little in front of him, so that Iwachisuke has no power to resist.

Looking at Masa, who finally showed his fangs, Iwachisuke's face gradually turned pale.
