Chapter 144

"Uh... It looks like I still can't escape. ”

Tsuruma was not surprised by this, and it could even be said that he had guessed everything.

"If you want to learn the secret art that has been passed down from generation to generation of my clan, Lord Pillar, you must marry a member of the Uzumaki clan, but considering your age, you can only make a marriage contract now."

"And through consultation with the patriarch of the Buddha, the clan who has concluded a contract with you has been determined, Uzumaki Mito."

Uzumaki Tengen said, in fact, with his authority alone, of course, he couldn't decide such an important matter.

And the pillars, who had already known the result, stared at the Buddha, which was probably negotiated between the latter and Uzumaki Ashina early in the morning.

In this Warring States period, although the vast majority of marriages between ninjas were free love, marriages were not uncommon.

There is no doubt that this political marriage between him and Mito is probably a bargaining chip that has been finalized between Buddha and Ashina to consolidate the relationship between the two clans.

It's just that the style of these two people is not too domineering, so they will use various opportunities to create opportunities for Pillar and Mito to get along.

It was because Pillar Ma wanted to learn the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan that the process of this marriage was accelerated.

"Pillars, what do you think?"

The Buddha looked at the pillar with a calm expression in front of him.

Originally, he thought that according to Pillar's usual style of acting, at least some consideration was needed.

But at this time, the pillar's gaze directly met the Vortex Tianyuan, and said, "Since it is the condition proposed by the Vortex Clan, of course I agree." ”

"However, before I say yes, I want to know, does Mito know about the engagement contract? What is her attitude. ”

Regarding this matter, Tsuruma had already thought about it, and the proposal of the Uzumaki clan was completely reasonable in the context of this era, and in order to grasp the power to resist Haromo Cheng as soon as possible, stabilize the battle situation, and reduce the casualties of the clan.

Pillar will not delay the business because of the emotional entanglement in his heart, so that some clansmen will lose their lives in the next war.

"Mito already knew about the marriage contract, and she agreed." Vortex Tianyuan replied.

"yes, she's known for a long time, that's why it's been this time... I guess I'm trying to adapt to this unfamiliar environment as much as possible. ”

Pillar thought to himself, although Mito did not have any obvious status in the Uzumaki clan, he was just an ordinary clan, but the person who taught Mito was the patriarch of the Uzumaki clan.

Therefore, if it weren't for Uzumaki Ashina who asked Mito's opinion on such a matter as a marriage contract, even if he was the patriarch of the Uzumaki clan, it would be impossible to directly ignore Mito's personal wishes.

"Well, so be it." Tsuruma nodded at Uzumaki Tengen, and since Mito didn't object, of course he didn't have anything more to say.

Then, in a hurry, he bid farewell to the Buddha, and his perception opened.

Although the marriage contract with Mito has been decided, there are still some words that Pillar must say to the girl now.

Through perception, Tsuruma was surprised to find that Mito was not in his own place of residence or elsewhere in the clan.

She actually stayed in the place where she usually practiced between the pillars.

...

When Tsuruma came to Mito, the girl turned around as usual and looked at him with a faint smile on her face, "It seems that you have done everything." ”

Even so, Tsuruma could see a hint of nervousness in the girl's expression and a slight helplessness in her limbs.

Because Mito is not sure, what will Tsuruma do after learning about the marriage contract.

"I promised."

Tsuruma didn't know what kind of answer Mito was hoping for.

"Hmm..."

In fact, even Mito herself may not know, she just nodded slightly.

Although he has the mind of an adult, Juma is actually quite immature in terms of feelings, and the girl in front of him is no longer uneasy, but he is at a loss and begins to scratch his hair.

"I don't know if you like me or not, although the two of us have a marriage contract now, but this kind of thing still needs to be based on feelings in the end..."

"So, if you have any ideas in the future, be sure to let me know."

Pillar didn't know why he still had such a problem with his relationship to this day, so after saying it to Mito, he still complained about himself in his heart.

"I'm as hypocritical as ever."

When Mito heard this, he was stunned, and suddenly smiled lightly: "Okay, in fact, it's not that troublesome, although I don't understand it very well, please take care of it in the future." ”

In fact, Mito had thought about it seriously when she had promised Uzumaki Ashina, and her way of thinking about the problem was actually very simple.

She doesn't hate Tsuruma, and she's very relaxed and happy when she gets along with him.

A thirteen-year-old girl may not know what real feelings are, but for her age, these are enough.

"Well, please take care of me too." Tsuruma also had a smile on his face.

He's used to the way he gets along with Mito, and if he behaves too deliberately and becomes twisted, he won't be at ease.

But Tsuruma is not a child, and when he should go to Mito, he has already made a secret promise in his heart.

At the same time, I also felt a sense of relief.

"It's time to let go..."

It's been eight years since he came to this world, and Tsuruma's impression of the world he was in before crossing over has become more and more blurred, but of course he won't forget his parents.

Then, the girl who made the pillars miss and would think of it from time to time actually didn't belong to him in the first place.

Now that he has agreed to make a marriage contract with Mito, that person, Tsuruma should also make a break in his heart.

The pillars will let themselves go slowly.

He doesn't know if he is a scumbag for this kind of behavior, see one and love the other?

And then use a famous quote from a TV series.

Do you like her? You're clearly just...

However, Pillar is very clear that he doesn't like Mito at the moment, but since he has made a marriage contract, Pillar is responsible for Mito.

It was something he had to devote his life to accomplishing.

Mito in front of him couldn't help but be curious, stared at the pillar and asked, "You said that if you learned the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan, you might be able to defeat that Haroi Chun, but it must not be that easy." ”

Mito herself was proficient in sealing, and was extremely talented in it, so she didn't think that even if Tsuruma learned the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan, she would be able to achieve her goal directly.

Pillar nodded and said, "Of course, so I'm going to improve the Uzumaki Clan's sealing technique so that it can have the effect I need." ”

With his current relationship with Mito, there is no need to hide anything.

However, Mito, who didn't know that Tsuruma had developed ninjutsu, was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

"This kind of thing... You're not bragging, are you? ”

...
