Chapter 640: Shiga Prefecture
Hattori Hanzo is the most legendary ninja in the history of the island nation, and it is incomparable to Fuji Taihao.
As a descendant of Hattori Hanzo, Hattori Shoda must also be an Iga ninja, and he has a fairly high status among Iga ninjas.
He told himself that his name was nothing more than two things.
First, use Hattori Hanzo's prestige to scare off Zhao Guoqing, but this doesn't seem to be very tenable, because no matter how powerful Hattori Hanzo is, he is a person who has been dead for hundreds of years.
Second, there is another purpose.
Hattori Shoda nodded.
"Why do you want to tell me your name?" Zhao Guoqing asked suspiciously.
Hattori Shoda didn't answer the question, but stared at Stephen and said, "I think you probably already know, his grandfather's name was Fuji Tai, right?" ”
Stephen poked his head out and said, "That's right, my grandfather is known as the most legendary ninja of the last century!" ”
"!" Bald roared, his face full of anger, and he shouted in a fierce tone, "The most legendary ninja of the last century is Shimoai-sama of the Hattori family, Fujitaro was supposed to die under the knife of Hattori-sama, but was rescued by a Frenchwoman!" ”
Zhao Guoqing's brows tightened slightly, and he could already see that there was a grudge between Hattori Shimoai and Fuji Taro, and one of them was an Iga ninja and the other was an Koga ninja, which may be a battle between two ninjas.
Hattori Shota's eyes fell on Stephen and he said in a low voice, "Fujitaro fled to France, but suddenly he sneaked back and designed an ambush attack on Hattori. Hattori's subordinates fought ten battles in the case of severe poison in their bodies, and finally lost and sacrificed! ”
Stephen also sensed something when he heard this, and asked with some trembling, "What is the relationship between you and Hattori's subordinates?" ”
"He's my grandfather!" Hattori Shoda said in a deep voice.
Stephen trembled visibly, shrunk back into his chair again, and looked at Zhao Guoqing with a pleading expression.
Things are already obvious.
Stephen's maternal grandfather killed Hattori Shota's grandfather, and Hattori Shoda attacked Stephen to avenge his grandfather.
"That's the way it is. This is a personal feud between the Hattori family and the Fujitaro family, and I hope you don't meddle in this matter! Hattori Shoda turned his head to look at Zhao Guoqing.
Zhao Guoqing squeezed out a smile and said: "I'm sorry, I'm a mercenary, and if I accept his money, I have to protect him, otherwise I will smash my own signboard." ”
"Mercenaries?" Hattori Zhengtian frowned slightly, looking very unhappy, but he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, stared at Zhao Guoqing and said, "You just used two kinds of martial arts, Eagle Claw Gong and Xingyi Fist, and there is also a wonderful footwork, and I know that there is a person who can learn these kinds of martial arts at the same time, and he is from the Celestial Empire!" ”
Did he find out who I am?
Zhao Guoqing's face changed slightly, and the slight movement of his fingers had already concealed a flying knife. If Hattori Masata's real name had been revealed, the throwing knife in his hand would have stabbed the other person's throat.
Hattori Masata was very smart, he didn't say Zhao Guoqing's name, but smiled slightly and asked, "You're that person, right?" ”
Zhao Guoqing didn't speak, but his face became more and more gloomy, and the murderous aura on his body gradually leaked out.
Hattori Masata was unimpressed, and continued, "You already know my identity, so you should have thought that I would know about the feud between you and the Dark Mercenary. In addition, this is an island country, not the Celestial Empire. If I leak the news that you're here, do you think the Dark Mercenaries and Iga Ninja will let you go? ”
"Are you threatening me?" Zhao Guoqing asked gloomily.
Hattori Shoda shook his head lightly and said, "No, it's not a threat, it's a negotiation." ”
Negotiation?
Is there such a negotiation in the world?
Mana Dan is obviously a threat!
Hattori Shoda continued: "I have already said that this is a personal feud between our Hattori family and the Fujitaro family. If you can keep this from interfering, then I can pretend not to know who you are and your presence here, and never mention it to anyone. His voice paused slightly, and he asked confidently, "How is it?" ”
Stephen was not stupid, seeing that Zhao Guoqing was caught by Hattori Masata, he was afraid that Zhao Guoqing would leave him alone, so he hurriedly shouted: "Head Guo, you should protect me if you accept my money." If you really leave me alone, then the reputation of your mercenary group will be seriously affected, and no one will hire you in the future! ”
Manadan, do you want to threaten me?
Zhao Guoqing glared at Stephen, and then said to Hattori Masata: "You heard what he said, I have to do things after I take the money, otherwise my mercenary group will go out of business." ”
Hattori Masata's brows tightened, looking very unhappy, staring at Zhao Guoqing and shouting: "For him, would you rather reveal your identity than stop?" ”
Zhao Guoqing smiled coldly: "Don't worry, my identity will not be leaked!" Before he could finish speaking, he raised his hand and shot the knife in his hand.
"Young master, be careful!" The bald figure moved to block the knife for Hattori Masada, "Young master, you go first, I'll drag him!" ”
"None of you can leave today!" Zhao Guoqing flew over, and his left palm, which had already been lucky, slapped out.
"Mighty King Kong Palm!" The bald man screamed in surprise and went up with all his strength despite the injuries on his body.
"Bang!" There was hardly any suspense, and under the strong power of the powerful King Kong palm, he flew directly upside down.
Hattori Masata hurriedly reached out to catch the baldness, but unfortunately Xiangda's right arm was already paralyzed weakly, and he was crushed under the devastation of the powerful Vajra palm.
"Poof!" Bald spat out a mouthful of blood, and the powerful Vajra palm also caused him internal injuries, "Young master, we are not his opponents, go quickly!" ”
Hattori Masata stared at Zhao Guoqing and said coldly: "You have officially started a war with the Hattori family, and I will do my best to kill you and Fujitaro's descendants!" ”
!
You are an Iga ninja, and the Dark Mercenary is a subordinate unit of the Ibe ninja, so the battle between us has already begun.
Zhao Guoqing snorted coldly, his left hand was like a hook, and his right hand was clenched into a fist, and he used the Xingyi Eagle Claw Fist to attack Hattori Masata at the same time.
Hattori Masata, however, did not fight hard with Zhao Guoqing, and threw a smoke bomb with his hand.
With a "pop", the carriage was immediately filled with smoke, and nothing could be seen.
Worst!
Zhao Guoqing secretly screamed, worried that Hattori Shoda would take advantage of this opportunity to attack Stephen, so he hurriedly gathered his momentum and rushed to Stephen's location, shouting: "Stephen! ”
"I'm here." Stephen's voice came from under his chair.
"Hide there and don't move!" Zhao Guoqing shouted, raising his true breath and being on guard with all his might.
Soon the smoke in the carriage was dispersed by the strong wind that poured in from outside, and there were no Hattori Masata, nor the bald old man, except for the four corpses left in the carriage.
Mana eggs!
Zhao Guoqing scolded depressedly, and even let them escape, which means that his true identity has been leaked, and the next action in the island country will become more and more difficult, and the important thing is that the identity leakage may also affect the Zhao family.
This is something that Zhao Guoqing does not want to see, and now he does not want to have anything to do with the Zhao family.
Hattori Shota?
The grievances between you and the Iga ninjas should indeed be understood.
Zhao Guoqing listed Hattori Masada as a new enemy, and at least in this island country, he and Stephen will definitely fight Hattori Shoda again.
Stephen poked his head out from under his chair again and looked at it, and asked nervously, "So..." Where did those two guys go? ”
"Ran away." Zhao Guoqing said and glanced at the corpse in the carriage, and then said, "This car can't sit anymore, we have to change the means of transportation." ”
"Oh, good." Stephen responded, on the one hand, he trusted Zhao Guoqing's arrangement, and on the other hand, he also knew that the corpse in front of him would cause them a lot of trouble.
When the train was about to slow down, Zhao Guoqing jumped out of the car with Stephen, and then the two stole another car and continued to drive towards Shiga Prefecture.
On the way, Stephen asked curiously: "That guy named Hattori Shoda said that he knew your identity, what does this mean, aren't you the head of the Hunter Mercenary Regiment Guo?" ”
"Do you know what it means to kill a cat with curiosity?" Zhao Guoqing glanced at him.
Stephen felt the invisible murderous aura emanating from Zhao Guoqing's body, his body trembled slightly, and he nodded in response: "Understood, understood." I promise I will never ask again. ”
It was quiet now, and there were no more attacks on the road, and it seemed that the attack on Stephen had disappeared all at once.
Zhao Guoqing knew that this kind of calm was not normal, but there was a huge whirlwind lurking, the enemy was plotting a big attack, and the next attack would definitely be overwhelming, and he must be prepared in advance!
According to the original plan, Zhao Guoqing and Stephen should have arrived in Shiga Prefecture first, but because they were attacked by Hattori Shoda, their trip was delayed. In the end, Zhao Guoqing and Stephen arrived at their destination later than Susan and others.
Everyone meets on the outskirts of Shiga Prefecture.
When Zhao Guoqing and Stephen arrived here, it was late and the journey was tiring, so they had to stay here for the night before they started, and Susan and the others had already found a ninja hotel to stay in advance.
Because Shiga Prefecture is the birthplace of Koga ninjas, there are many legends about ninjas that circulate here.
With the continuous development of information, there has been a wave of ninja craze around the world, and many people have an inexplicable curiosity about ninjas, and this curiosity has propelled them to Shiga Prefecture.
Over time, Shiga Prefecture became a popular destination for exploring the secrets of the ninjas, with ninja inns and martial arts halls opening up one after another, and even a ninja museum to satisfy people's curiosity.
Stephen, on the other hand, felt close to Shiga Prefecture and thought he would find the treasure left by his grandfather.
