Chapter 70: Assassination and Horses
The land of fire, the city of fire.
As night fell, the lights came on, and the night of Fire City had just begun. The various izakaya are lit up with a bright neon glow, and through the half-open and half-closed griddled wooden doors, the slender legs of geisha loom through. In front of some doors, there is a sign hanging generously, which reads "There is a ninja private room inside". Wandering ninjas, ninjas without employers, hook their shoulders and go to visit familiar tricks in twos and threes. These outlaws, whose heads are often pinned to the waistband of their trousers, have a few dollars and will naturally go to enjoy themselves in the first place. There are also some people wearing civilian clothes, but they look a little pinched in their gestures, and the girls who receive them have sharp eyes, and at a glance they know that they are ninjas pretending to be civilians, and they don't know which ninja village they are. They greeted them warmly, but they didn't say anything, these are the owners of the money, their physical fitness is not ordinarily good, and they are generous with money.
Flaminda, a veritable city of prosperity, a city of pleasure, a city of desire. The Twelve Shinobi of the Land of Fire live in this city of fire, living in a simple and low-key manner, many people don't seem to know about their existence, and many more can't even name the daimyo. On the street, a man was caught and asked, "Who is the Daimyo of the Land of Fire?" Some people will tell you "Jin Zhi Cheng", some people will tell you "Jin Zhi Yu", and some people will tell you "Jin Zhi Yu", which often makes the inquirer more confused.
In the center of the Flamingo stands a majestic building, with towering walls, heavy gates, pavilions, the sound of silk and bamboo, and singing and dancing feasts, often from the sound of roosters to the crows of roosters. This is the imperial palace of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, and people are used to calling it the "Daimyo's Mansion". People have the impression that the daimyo of the past dynasties have only done two things well: one is to stamp the Hokage's appointment letter; The other is extravagant pleasures. What others have played, the daimyo has played; What others haven't played, the daimyo has also played; What others wanted to play but didn't dare to play, the daimyo still played.
In a hidden courtyard in the south of the Daimyo's Mansion, Kazuma listened to the faint backyard flower song, and unconsciously came to his mind: that nasty dead fat man was holding a girl as beautiful as Angela Beby, and was arching his greasy big mouth to launch a biochemical attack on the girl's tender lips.
"Hey, my heart is not quiet, and I can't read the scroll!" Kazuma annoyedly put aside the scroll in his hand, it wasn't that he didn't think about moving to a clean place, but if he didn't show his face in front of the daimyo every day, maybe after a few days, the dead fat man wouldn't remember who he and Ma were.
The other leader, Jilu, is different, leading the ministry of the abbot of the Temple of Fire, who does not live in Fire City at all, and the Twelve Ninja is only a part-time job. Except for the Temple of Fire, Jilu doesn't have any big concerns, and he is not afraid that the daimyo will forget him. It is rumored that there are also nuns who are monks in the Temple of Fire, but I don't know if it's true or not.
Guarding the Twelve Ninjas, not so much a guard, is more of a temporary collection of twelve thugs, there is no obedience to each other, everyone's relationship is equal, and the leader is only temporarily elected by everyone. But this year's Twelve Ninjas, due to the fact that Jilu has lived in seclusion in the Temple of Fire for a long time, and Kazuma's own strength is strong, his character is resolute and resolute, and his personality is full of charm, and there is a faint tendency to unify the twelve ninjas into a powerful organization. Secretly, the Five Elements Righteous Brothers were willing to obey the orders of Hema and voluntarily became Hema's subordinates. The attitude of the four of Lei Dun is unclear, Asma doesn't have to think about it, the Fire Temple of the Earth Land and Konoha hook up.
"If you want to fully control the Twelve Ninjas, you have to work hard!" He leaned back on the horse's head, leaned his neck on the leisure chair, closed his eyes, and thought about the secret plan. Suddenly, a slight chakra fluctuation alerted him. At the same time, fire escape, earth escape, wind escape, thunder escape, all kinds of high-level ninjutsu attacked the hut where he was from all directions.
"Escape Defensive Wall!" He Ma was angry for a while, these people were too bold to dare to assassinate in the Daimyo's mansion, and the target of the assassination was still himself who was the leader of the Twelve Ninjas. This has never been done before in history, the daimyo had no substantial power, and people took care of him, at least in terms of face. Not moving, not fate, not windy, I don't know where to go to the waves, and I am not there today. No, they performed their duty of protection on the spot at the Daimyo banquet tonight, and they arranged it with Ma himself.
Thinking of this, Kazuma understood, "I'm afraid that these assassins have been dormant for a while before they seized such an opportunity. ”
"Hmph, it's not enough!" Kazuma snorted coldly in his heart, after defending against the first wave of attacks, Kazuma knew that the strength of the assassin had not yet reached the point where he could threaten him. "Ninja Psychic Staff!" Kazuma bit his finger, made a mark, slapped it on the ground, and a long Japanese-style tin staff slowly emerged. He Ma Yi grasped the staff and read: "Psychic staff, thousands of locks!" ”
The head of the staff stretched out like an umbrella bone, transforming into eight chain whips and sweeping towards the assassin's position. Moments later, the four attackers were captured alive.
"Konoha's dark part?!" He Ma was shocked in his heart, and then rejoiced, "Opportunity! "Whoever sent Konoha's shadows to assassinate Kazuma, Kazuma had to say thank you to him. Kazuma had long wanted to deal with Konoha but had no suitable reason, but unexpectedly, Konoha sent this reason over by himself.
Kazuma retrieved a scroll from the assassin and checked it repeatedly, and it was indeed a scroll and command code from the Konoha Dark Division. The assassins' masks reveal that they belong to the roots of Danzo. Whether it's the Tuanzang faction or the Ape Fei faction, isn't it all Konoha faction in short?
"Ill-intentioned?" Kazuma burned the scroll and looked cold, "Konoha is starting to pay attention to himself!" "The first strike is strong, and the second strike suffers, and the horse immediately decided to immediately implement the long-planned plan.
As soon as he decided, Kazuma released the signal of warning and summoning the twelve ninjas, and stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, looking in the direction of Konoha and sneering.
"Master, please forgive the disciple for the sin of poor guarding!" Immovable, unfatned, and unwinded in the Daimyo's mansion, he was the first to arrive, and when he saw the collapse of the courtyard from afar, he was surprised and did not forget to ask Kazuma for his guilt.
"Haha, I arranged your transfer, why are you guilty?" He Ma smiled, "A few little thieves, what can you do to me?" Do you remember what my master said when I left Konoha? Now, here's your chance! ”
At the beginning, Hema wanted to fight for the opportunity to get a psychic beast for his disciples, and was sung by Tuan Zang and Ape Fei, and He Ma Ke remembered it very deeply.
"Disciple remember!" The three of them replied in unison. Especially Bufeng, he was even more eager to try, thinking that at that time, Kazuma went to see Konoha Hokage for him.
"Chief, what's going on?" Jin Hong, Mu Long, Shui Yong, Huo Rong, and Tu Song of the Five Elements Righteous Brothers Group then arrived and asked in surprise.
"Uncles and uncles, the situation is obvious, Konoha sent assassins to assassinate the master, they want to eliminate the Guardian Twelve Shinobi and completely control the Fire Country!" Fudo knows Kazuma's mind best, and said indignantly. What a henchman is, that is, the leader is not easy to speak, and the henchman must say it out loud.
Of course, Jin Hong, the boss of the Five Elements Righteous Brothers, found out that the assassin was the costume of the Konoha Shadows, but he couldn't help but think, "It can't be directed and acted by Hema, right?" "Jin Hong obeys Kazuma, knowing that he is a man with means and has the quality of a hero. He angrily kicked the assassin and yelled, "Konoha is simply too much! Do you still have our twelve ninjas in your eyes? I don't think I'll just leave it at that, I must ask them for an explanation! ”
"That's it!······" The brothers Mu Long, Shui Yong, Huo Rong, and Tu Song echoed one after another.
"What did Konoha do? Are you so excited? ”
The four of them crossed the courtyard wall and landed in the courtyard, and when they saw the assassin tied to the ground, they looked Kazuma up and down suspiciously, and they thought to themselves, "It can't be that Hema directed and acted by himself, right?" ”
