After returning from Kaimachi, Yoshiboshi and the others devoted all their energy to experimenting with the use of iron cannons. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Although Hirate Masahide wanted to be mad about their private departure from Owari, he was quite relieved to see that Yoshibo-sa was rarely serious, and although he was working on a weapon that he had never seen before. After all, compared to going to the town to make trouble, or wandering around in fancy costumes, etc., at least this is more in line with the identity of a samurai. Therefore, he only told Master Ji not to be too addicted to this new weapon, and he didn't say anything more, which made the overlord pill and the others who were originally worried breathe a sigh of relief.

However, unlike Kichibo and the others, who have injected great enthusiasm into iron cannons, Overlord Maru is not interested in this epoch-making weapon, but loves the books he bought. As a result, it is common to see such a strange picture, where Master Yoshibo and others are constantly experimenting with iron cannons, and in this "bang! Bang! Bang! In the noise, Bawangmaru sat there quietly and read the book with relish.

"Overlord Maru, why are you so interested in this thing? Do you really want to learn that Portuguese language? Master Kichibo asked strangely.

"Hehe, Master Ji, it's not a bad thing to learn more languages!" Overlord Pill said with a sigh, this is the experience and lesson he has personally experienced in his previous life.

However, Overlord Maru also knew that this kind of boring excuse would not satisfy Yoshimo, so he continued, "Yoshibo, you also know that the iron cannon came from the Nanban, so it will definitely not be a bad thing to know so much about things over there. And we won't be able to trade only with Demacia Noxus in the future, once we meet other Nanbans, if I can do business with them fluently in their language, do you think the price will be cheaper? Maybe you can even figure out the craftsmanship of the iron cannon! Overlord Maru said the reason that Yoshihoshi couldn't object to at all.

Although the power of the iron cannon is great and there are many advantages, it also has various disadvantages, the most fatal of which is the price! Because Master Ji has found in his research in the past few days that the iron cannon weapon must be formed in order to show combat effectiveness, but in order to achieve scale, a large number of iron cannons are needed. At the price of this transaction, although Master Ji didn't pay much attention to the financial issues, he also knew that it was an astronomical amount.

Therefore, after hearing Overlord Maru's words, Master Ji immediately changed his tone. "That's right! Overlord Maru, the deal with the Southern Barbarians will be handed over to you in the future! Be sure to cut the price! Master Ji patted Overlord Maru's shoulder and said solemnly. As for the craftsmanship? Master Ji couldn't even think about it, unless the other party was a fool, how could he teach you?

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, a year passed.

Nakono Castle, the residence of Yoshiboshi.

Overlord Maru was sitting in the center of the room, and in front of him, there was a stern-faced Kichipo. Next to it, there is a flat masahide.

Overlord Maru looked at Hirate Masahide with a puzzled expression, and secretly wondered if he had done something to let Hirate Masahide come to find trouble. Well, although Hirate Masahide is Yoshibo's teacher, he is also one of the elders of the Oda family, and he is a very busy minister. So on weekdays, except for the occasional visit to check Master Jifa's homework, it's basically impossible to see people.

In other words, this seems to understand how much Yoshibo is usually excessive, if he didn't break out of the name of "Owari Big Fool", how could Hirate Masahide know that his good apprentice is so staggering? Well, off topic.

Just when Bawangmaru was puzzled, Master Ji opened his mouth, and saw that this great man who was usually arrogant, thinking that he was the boss and talking about two sentences of "I want to win the world" was very embarrassed, and he stammered even more when he spoke, "Overlord Maru, that one...... This thing...... Alas! I really don't know how to tell you......" Master Ji hesitated for a long time, but he didn't say a word.

It's just that Overlord Pill guessed a thing or two from Master Ji's attitude, after all, there don't seem to be many things that can make this guy look like this.

"Is it about the father who is under or below?" Overlord Maru asked in a low voice.

Hearing Overlord Maru's words, Kichiboshi opened his mouth and finally looked at Masahide Hirate for help. Nodding his head, Hirate Masahide said softly, "Overlord Maru, I'm sorry to inform you that your father, Yata, died in battle while on a mission to investigate Mino. ”

Hirate Masahide's voice was calm, so calm that he didn't seem to feel anything about it. But he can't be blamed, after all, in this troubled world, life and death are normal things, and samurai have to hang their heads around their waists to live, let alone ninjas walking on the sword mountain.

It can be said that if it wasn't Yata who died this time, or if the person who died was not the adoptive father of Overlord Maru, or if Overlord Maru was not a playmate that Master Kichipo cared about unusually, then Hirate Masahide would not have come to Nakono Castle on purpose at all. Normally, their practice is to notify their families when the pension is paid.

"I see...... The body of my father's ......" Overlord Maru asked in a low voice, his mood did not change in the slightest, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

"It's a pity......" Hirate Masahide replied calmly, but there was a hint of appreciation in his gaze at Overlord Maru. Although the person who does not change his face in the face of this kind of thing seems to be a little cold-blooded, he undoubtedly shows the calmness and composure that are the most rare as a samurai. You know, Master Yoshihoshi has said countless times to Masahide in Peace Te that after the Yuan service, he wants to make Overlord Maru his retainer. And in this regard, in fact, Hirate Masahide is still quite disgusted in his heart, after all, Overlord Maru is a lowly ninja background. This time, though, he did make a difference to Masahide Flat.

Looking at the Overlord Pill kneeling below, Hirate Masahide couldn't help but think back to the times when he saw him before, every time, the Overlord Pill always showed words and deeds that did not match his age. "Perhaps, it would also be a good choice to make him a retainer of Master Jifa, after all, Overlord Maru's loyalty is beyond doubt.

Thinking of this, Hirate Masahide opened his mouth and said, "Overlord Maru, although your father is a ninja, according to our understanding, his ancestor is also a samurai, the Yamada clan. So, I hope you can inherit this surname in the future and contribute to the Oda family. ”

With these words, Hirate Masahide undoubtedly recognized the identity of Overlord Maru's future identity, which is what Overlord Maru has been looking forward to for a long time, and it is also something that Master Kichipo has been working hard for a long time. Today, though, neither of them has much to say about it. However, Hirate Masahide also understood, so he comforted him a few more words and got up to leave.

After Masahide Heite left, Master Kichibo suddenly rushed to Overlord Maru's side, looked at Overlord Pill and asked softly, "Overlord Maru, are you okay?" ”

"Don't worry, boss, I'm fine, I just suddenly found out that this is a troubled time......" Overlord Maru responded softly.

Hawkers, if Overlord Pill really doesn't have the slightest emotion, it's pure nonsense. Although he grew up since he was a child, Yata didn't get along with him much, and even raised him as a baby, it was the nurse that Yata paid for. But after all, it was Yata who adopted him when he was abandoned in the wild. It was also Yata who taught him everything he knew. So if you let Overlord Pill really treat Yata as his father, it will be difficult, but for Yata's death, Overlord Pill is still quite sad.

Hearing Overlord Maru's words, Master Ji was also silent, and after half a sound, he also sighed, "Yes, this is a troubled time!" ”

In other words, the boyhood of Master Ji and Overlord Pill was definitely the carefree kind, because most of the teenagers experienced the cruelty of those troubled times, they had not experienced it. For them, war is still a distant term. Isn't there such a saying? What happened to others was a story, and for the people who hadn't experienced those cruelties yet, it was really hard for them to imagine how cruel this world was.

There was silence again, and after a long time, Yoshi-shi asked again, "Do you have any plans?" ”

"Cultivate, learn, become the strongest samurai, and inherit the Yamada family!" Overlord Maru took a moment before answering.

Master Kichipo could feel that Overlord Maru was really serious this time. Although Overlord Maru used to talk about the strongest, to be honest, he rarely really paid anything, maybe because his talent was so strong that even if he didn't have to pay anything, he was still very strong, right?

However, this time, the Overlord Pill was obviously stimulated. He is very strong, but that is only compared to Inu Chiyo and others, if compared to Yata, even if he does not count Yata's half-life experience, Overlord Maru may not be his opponent, so what if he is replaced by Shibata Katsuya, the first fierce general of the Oda family? What if you face the unparalleled Takeda Akabi in the world in the future? As long as he thought about it for a moment, the Overlord Pill shuddered a little.

Maybe as he gets older and more experienced, his strength will naturally become stronger, but in this troubled world, who can guarantee what will happen in the next second? In the game, the Oda family can farm peacefully until 1560, but what about reality? At least Overlord Maru knew that the conflict between the Oda family and the Saito family had never been interrupted.

"Don't worry! I'll help you! Master Kichipo patted Overlord Maru on the shoulder and promised.

If you want to become the strongest samurai, you can't do it by playing casually with a wooden sword, otherwise there wouldn't be so many sons of samurai who have been sent to temples to study since childhood. Samurai is a very systematic profession, and it has various requirements for the person who is employed, especially when you want to be the strongest.
