About fifty meters away from Misamura's house, Long Tao's figure disappeared out of thin air and entered the other space through the Konoha Hidden Technique. Follow? Dream?. lā

He calculated the distance, and when he appeared, he had come to the roof beam of a wide hall, and as soon as he appeared, the sound of several people talking in his ears came from directly below him, and it turned out that Mitaro was meeting guests.

Long Tao held his breath, constricted the air holes all over his body, and even his heartbeat temporarily stopped, even if someone had the same perception as him, it was difficult to detect his existence.

"This mission is very important, not only must you both participate in person, but also select ten elite subordinates to go out together, and make sure that the mission is successful!" The voice of the ringleader Mijiro....

Zao's gentle voice sounded: "Leader, I only have fifteen subordinates in total, most of them are still too young, such an important task, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do it, so it's better to let me do it myself!" ”

"No way!" Misaburo snorted; "This mission is a union of three families, and each village must send a sufficient number of people, if you don't bring enough ten people, won't it make people laugh at me for losing my trust? Jujube, I'll tell you to train more capable subordinates, but you only know that you protect that group of little girls and don't train them fiercely, can you protect them for a lifetime? This mission, either life or death, take your little girls to learn a lesson! ”

Zao didn't speak again, and Long Tao could imagine the helplessness and misery in her beautiful eyes.

In the short silence, a cold man's voice sounded: "Leader, I just want to know who the target is this time, and it is necessary to send out such a big battle." ”

Long Tao could hear that it was the voice of another person in the village.

There are only two upper shinobi in Haguro no Sato, jujube and Hyakkimaru.

Zao herself hates killing, and the subordinates she recruits are all orphan girls with poor backgrounds who survived the war, and she recruits them more to protect them.

is completely different from jujubes, Hyakkimaru has many subordinates and is extremely powerful, if Sanjiro is gone, his successor is none other than him.

"Hey!" Sanshiro laughed dryly, "The target this time, speaking of which is a big name, this person is called 'Ueno Kunichi Gun', he is the number one master under the lord of Minowa Castle, Nagano Yemasa, not only is he skilled in spearmanship, but also unparalleled in the world in kendo, and it is rumored that he already has the strength of a sword master......"

Sanshiro paused, glanced at Jujube and Hyakkimaru, and continued: "That's right, the target this time is Hidetsuna Izumi!" ”

"Ahh Sure enough, it was him! ”

Although there had been speculations for a long time, when the name was really confirmed, Jujube and Hyakkimaru couldn't help but exclaim.

Long Tao, who was hiding on the roof beam, was also surprised, he knew more than the three people below.

Kamiizumi Hidetsuna, that is, the future sword master - Kamiizumi Nobutsuna, in the game, this is a character with an initial force value of 00!

Although he hasn't changed his name to Xingang at this moment, he has already successfully cultivated the mastery of a new Yin Stream, especially the strongest move called "Turn", the effect in the game is to instantly kill all the enemies present!

This move, although in terms of single attack power, is worse than the "Ichinotai Sword" of another sword saint - Tsukahara Bu Tsuka, but the wide range of attacks and the great lethality can be said to be the strongest move among all swordsmanship in the Warring States period of Japan.

It can be said that at this time, Shangquan Hidetsuna has fully possessed the strength of the Sword Saint, but he has not yet traveled to Beijing and has not won the title of Sword Saint.

Who would hire a ninja to assassinate such a dangerous and powerful person?

"Leader, who is going to assassinate Hidetsuna Imizumi?" Hyakkimaru asked the question in Long Tao's heart.

"Naturally, it's a big shot, and there is more than one, otherwise how could you hire three villages to act at the same time, in addition to forming a numerical advantage, it is more important to cooperate with each other in ninjutsu." Sanshiro sneered: "You don't need to know too much about the employer, go back and prepare quickly!" ”

Long Tao pondered, what made Sanjiro call a "big shot" could only be a daimyo or something, so this assassination of Umizumi Hidetsuna must have involved a struggle between countries.

Hidetsuna Kamiizumi is currently subordinate to Nagano Yoshimasa of Minowa Castle, and this person is also a small daimyo of the party, although the territory is not large, but the Ueno Province under his jurisdiction has always been a place of war between soldiers.

Ueno Province, which is adjacent to the North Shinano of the Takeda family and the Musashi Province of the Hojo family, has always been coveted by these two families, and the Nagano family is now subordinate to the Echigo Nagao family, and the head of the Nagao family, Nagao Keitor, is Uesugi Kenshin, who will be known as the "Dragon of Echigo" in the future, and is one of the few "military gods" in the Warring States period.

Uesugi Kenshin and Takeda Shingen are lifelong enemies, and the two families have been fighting endlessly in Shinano, and Kenshin often went to Musashi Province to fight against the Hojo family because of his support for the Uesugi family, the governor of the Kanto region.

After the alliance between the Takeda family and the Hojo family, Ueno Province became their battleground, and it is not surprising that Hidetsuna, as the most famous samurai of the Nagano family, became their target of assassination.

In this way, it is very likely that these two ninjas hired to assassinate Hidetsuna Ueizumi, and the other two ninjas, if nothing else, should be the Wind Demon and the Thobo.

Jujube and Hyakkimaru were ordered to withdraw, Long Tao also used the Konoha Hidden Technique to sneak outside again, Sanjilang can come back at any time to do it, compared to that, it is more important to participate in the assassination mission, first, you can protect Sister Zao along the way, and second, if you have the opportunity, you can take the opportunity to do Hyakkimaru and his elite men, and then it will be easier to let Zao take over as the leader.

Long Tao appeared directly in the courtyard of Zao's house, a group of girls were standing outside the entrance, Zao was standing in front of them with a slight frown, and Long Tao's sudden appearance surprised everyone.

"Sister Zao, let me accompany you!" Long Tao said with a smile.

"Yishi, you...... How do you ......"

Jujube was puzzled, and a group of girls looked curiously at the handsome man who suddenly appeared out of thin air.

"The boss's mission, I already know." Long Tao smiled, "Take me, and then you can choose nine girls at random, I promise, you will definitely come back unscathed!" ”

At the foot of Mt. Fuji, this is where the three ninjas will carry out their missions.

Long Tao looked at the white top of Mount Fuji from afar, and sighed in his heart, unknowingly, he had entered the fourth year of coming to this world.

The other two ninjas were indeed the Mad Demon Crowd and the Thobo Clan, and each of the two families sent two upper ninjas to lead thirty ninjas.

The six shinobi of the three families are discussing the tactical arrangement, the Fahaifang and Xuanzhai of the Wind Demon Crowd, and the Dingjiu Lang and Hikoshichiro of the Toubo Clan.

After the discussion, Zao and Hyakkimaru returned to Long Tao and the other Yuhei people, whispered a few words, and led everyone to a dense forest at the foot of the mountain.

The place where they ambushed was an avenue at the southern foot of Mt. Fuji, which was used by Ryutao's bodyguards when they took Injiro to the Kusakikan.

At dusk, there was finally a slight sound of footsteps at one end of the avenue, and a tall and thin figure walked slowly from the east to meet the sunset, dressed in a light brown samurai suit, and two swords were slashed at his waist.

Long Tao, with his excellent perception, found that the distance between each of his steps was exactly the same, as if he had measured it with a ruler, and it was difficult to do this without a lot of hard training.

Hyakkimaru made a gesture and made a group of men prepare to attack.

The sword saint Ueizumi Hidetsuna finally came to the front.
