"Tell me about it." Yun Qi waited unhurriedly for Helena's next step.

After knowing that the Demon Monk is not simple, he must be careful in every step of the decision to deal with the liaison sent by the Demon Monk and Toyotomi Hideyori at the same time, and the slightest carelessness may lead to the failure of this mission to capture the map.

Helena spoke out her plan:

Since the Demon Monk's strength is not simple, why do you have to take the map directly from the Demon Monk? This kind of inertia of thinking can easily lead people astray tactically.

Helena said, "Why don't we change our mindset and wait for the demon monk and the agent sent by Toyotomi Hideyori to complete the deal, and we will attack the contact person who got the map." In this way, you can avoid directly facing the demon monk. ”

Helena didn't know that the monks had a high status in the whole of Japan, and they were equivalent to another privileged group of the samurai class, holding the spiritual voice. Even the shogun of the shogunate could not ignore the presence of the monks.

But to be able to be named the word "demon monk" by the people of the Hattori family, obviously, its strength is definitely not something that can be solved by a few middle ninjas.

"Good way! In this way, we can avoid a head-on conflict with the demon monk, and we will not lose our profits. High, really high! Tie Feng listened, cocked his thumb, and was full of praise.

Helena's idea is definitely worthy of Tie Feng's praise, but Yun Qi slowly shook his head.

Her brilliant plan was not supported by Yun Qi.

"Your plan is great, and if you look at it tactically, you can say that there is no better plan than this. However, this plan is based on the fact that we have enough time. Don't forget, since we found out that the Koga Leader Danmasa and the Iga Leader Aga are about to appear in Edo, there is not much time for us to wait for the Demon Monk and the agent to complete the transaction. Look for an opportunity to seize the map. ”

Yun Qi paused for a moment and continued, "Don't forget, once Tokugawa Ieyasu announces the termination of the no-fight pact between Iga Kaga, then the killing between the two factions will start immediately. And according to the plot of the original book, the day the no-war covenant was terminated. Koga Danmasa and Iga Phantom were both killed in battle, and Koga Hothe, who represented the battle list of both sides, was taken by the falcon domesticated by Ah Phantom and passed to the Iga faction in a short period of time. ”

Yun Qi stated his real reason for opposition: "And if we are delayed here by the map matter to rush to Iga Hidden Village, wouldn't we have made the stupid mistake of 'picking sesame seeds and losing watermelons'?" Once Koga falls into strategic passivity, even with the full intervention of our reincarnation, I am afraid that it may not be able to reverse Koga's fundamental disadvantage. ”

"But ......," Helena retorted, frowning, "You only knew about the arrival of the head of Koga Iga from the mouth of Hattori Gohachiro. Maybe it's today, maybe it's tomorrow, and more likely a few days from now. Who knows? ”

"No, the arrival of Dan Zheng and Ah Huan must be today." Yunqi cut the railway.

"How so?" Helena asked unconvinced.

For the three people who have just entered the mission world, they are acting together again, and everyone has the same information, as usual. What Helena can't deduce, Yunqi shouldn't deduce.

Yun Qi told him. The basis for his inference was the information that the Hattori family had given up on the sniper monk deal.

"If Koga Iga comes to Edo after tomorrow, then Hattori Hanzo will not put the information on hold and should concentrate on dealing with the agents of the demon monk and Toyotomi Hideyori before the leaders of the two factions arrive. However, if they do not do so, then this inference is not valid. ”

"Secondly. If it is after the leader of Koga Iga, then according to the original plot, Koga Dan is dying in a duel with Iga Phantom, then there is no need for Hattori Hanzo to step up his guards. I prevented the terrible Koga or the Iga party from posing a threat to the safety of Tokugawa Ieyasu. ”

"So, I think, today is the time for the leaders of the two major factions to come together here. Didn't you notice? From the beginning of our mission, the patrols on the streets passed through several waves, and the roads were sparsely populated. You see, this hotel is considered to be in the upper middle level, but there is no fourth guest to dine except for us. ”

Recalling the level of martial law outside, Helena nodded silently in approval.

"So what are we going to do?"

"Take the initiative!" Yun Qi slapped the table and stood up.

……

At this time, in the heart of Edo, Sunpu Castle!

During the Warring States period, it was once the home of the Imagawa family, but it was captured by the combined forces of Tokugawa Ieyasu and Takeda Shingen, and finally became the place where Tokugawa Ieyasu lived in seclusion after he was relieved of the shogunate.

Junfu Castle, the castle tower, stacked like a dancing fan.

The two figures were motionless in the sunlight.

The dazzling sunlight shone on the two of them, flickering and dimming, as if there was some kind of haze exuding from the two of them, blocking the sunlight from time to time, which also added a bit of mystery to them.

The two were several meters apart, and each other's eyes were staring at each other, paying attention to each other's every move.

As for the five swordsmen and samurai who were thinking about them getting closer, they turned a blind eye.

The two of them are the representatives of Koga and Iga, the protagonists of Sunpu Castle today.

The ninja in his forties, who was born with a strange appearance—a high forehead, sunken cheeks, and a pair of small red eyes, sometimes blooming with a terrifying essence.

His appearance is actually very ugly, ugly to the point of horror. The back was high and bulging, as if suffering from rickets, and it was bulging like a ball.

He is the representative of the Koga faction - the wind waits for the general!

Directly opposite him was a young man dressed in coarse black cloth in the mountains, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with his fair skin and cherry blossom-like cheeks, even in today's modern era where plastic surgery is commonplace, it can be called "handsome".

He held an unusually slender black rope, and between his slender white hands, he pulled out various mysterious shapes with great ease, as if what he was playing with was not a long thread like a black rope, but a certain part of his body.

He is the representative of the Iga faction, Yashamaru.

The five samurai who were approaching Yashamaru did not look like swordsmen with superb martial arts, although they were holding long swords in both hands.

However, the dignitaries and nobles who sat on the green grass beside the castle tower knew that these seemingly poor samurai were actually first-class masters of Yagyu Ryu. It is said that he is also a master of the Yagyu School of swordsmanship, Yanagi Soju himself. (To be continued.) )
