CHAPTER XLII

While the two were talking, the game on the field was over. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"You won ......"

Bo Fengshuimen, who was cornered, admitted defeat in a bitter tone. His stamina and chakra were almost exhausted, and he couldn't even barely cope with the black line. The victory and defeat have been decided, if you don't admit defeat now, then you will have to be pierced by the black line and carried down again...... Let's throw in the towel.

Bo Feng Shuimen is actually a very strong person, but being strong does not mean that he has to be hard-topped, so although he was unwilling, he still took the initiative to admit defeat, and then glanced at Ye Feng deeply, as if he wanted to remember this moment.

"Ye Feng, I lost this battle...... I'll continue to challenge you in the future, but next time I won't lose so easily! ”

The sound of Bo Feng Shuimen changed from low to high.

"Always welcome." Ye Feng looked at Bo Feng Shuimen and nodded, his voice was undulating and unwavering.

And with the opening of Bo Feng Shuimen to admit defeat, the last game of the actual combat ranking assessment has finally come to an end!

The examiner took a deep breath and then suddenly raised his hand to announce.

"Winner...... Night maple! ”

According to the previous rules, the first place in the actual combat ranking assessment will be awarded the title of the strongest king of the ninja school. And Bo Feng Shui Gate and the third place became a transcendent master of the ninja school.

To be honest, Ye Feng's strength is still a bit inspirational, if the person in charge of Konoha is Zhao Kun, he will definitely concoct countless soul chicken soup and future celebrity deeds based on this, and forcibly feed them to Konoha ninjas and reserve ninjas.

After all, a few months ago, Ye Feng was just a crane tail that couldn't be practiced in ninjutsu!

Oh, the reason why I say this is chicken soup for the soul is because he awakened the blood inheritance limit, which produced such a shocking reversal. The real positive energy and positive role model should be a student who has no boundaries of blood inheritance and achieves all this through hard work. However, in this world where bloodline determines achievement, Ye Feng's deeds are enough to make a pot of chicken soup for the soul.

"It's really a wonderful battle, Konoha is indeed a place where geniuses come out, and it deserves to be the strongest ninja village. In the future, in the country of rain, there will be more ninjas who rely on Konoha, Hokage-sama......"

"Nakai-sama, please rest assured, Konoha has always supported the Land of Rain."

――――――――――――

In the actual combat ranking assessment of the ninja school, Ye Feng overwhelmed the wave of Feng Shui Gate and won the first place strongly.

The name of Night Kaede's genius spread throughout Konoha in one day!

Many people who eat melons were shocked by this news, and no one could have imagined that he would be able to do this!

And some other villains, who are not melon-eating people, are responsible for being slapped in the face by the protagonist, and they also began to be restless.

The Uchiha clan station.

The room where the patriarch was located was solemn.

In the center of the room, Uchiha Peichen was half-kneeling with cold sweat on his forehead.

And the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, the captain of the Konoha garrison, and the upper shinobi Uchiha Lu Shigeru, was facing away from him and standing with his hands in his hands.

"Bastard!"

"Patriarch ......"

Uchiha Peichen half-knelt there with some fear and awe, his body trembling slightly.

After a long time, Uchiha Lu Shigeru finally turned around, looked at him coldly, and said, "This little ghost has made such a big noise...... The first place in the actual combat ranking assessment, he was listed with Hokage-sama and Kazuya Nakai, and now both the Hokage and Danzou have personally asked about it! ”

Uchiha Peichen listened to Uchiha Lu Shigeru's voice containing anger, and he didn't dare to breathe.

To be honest, he never thought that Ye Feng, a little ghost from a small village outside the village, could make such a big move. When he just challenged him under the witness of the shadows, he made a lot of noise and pushed the Uchiha clan to the forefront. And now again?!

If I had known this, I should have found a way to kill that little ghost directly!

"Now I can't touch him. Pei Chen, although the three generations of Hokage personally inquired into this matter, it was a matter of the face of the Uchiha clan, and it was impossible to give in because of this. Uchiha Lu Shigeru took a deep breath, the sternness in his tone almost overflowed the room, and said, "The face of the Uchiha clan can't be lost again!" If you can't kill him, cut your own stomach. ”

"I ...... I understand ......"

Uchiha responded in a trembling voice.

Seeing this, Uchiha Lu Shigeru shook his head, turned around, and continued to stand with his hands in his hands.

"Let's go down, the competition in three months' time will not allow any accidents."

"Yes, Patriarch!" Uchiha Peichen responded categorically, and his eyes revealed a strong murderous intent.

Even if Ye Feng won the first place in the ninja school's actual combat ranking assessment, in his opinion, it was just like a child's play. If you want to win him, you are dreaming!

――――――――――――――

"Ye Feng, Hokage-sama please."

The dark biu with the mask appeared suddenly, and said to Ye Feng in a calm tone, and then biu disappeared again.

Ye Feng nodded without surprise.

The call of the three generations of Hokage Ape Flying Sun Slash, of course, he couldn't refuse. Besides, it's time for Ape Fei Ri to summon him.

After the actual combat ranking assessment was over that day, it was supposed that he should be looking for him. But maybe there was something going on, and it dragged on until now - he didn't know what Ape Fei had done.

"Okay."

After answering, Ye Feng walked towards the village.

And after he left, two ninjas appeared in this small training ground pushing a bandaged man in a wheelchair, looking meaningfully at the wooden stake that had been broken by Ye Feng.

"I've got to get him."

If Ye Feng was just a teenager with excellent talents, and under Sarutobi's obstruction, Danzou wouldn't mind giving Hokage a face. But Ye Feng not only has excellent talent, but also can work hard to this extent, and his almost crazy cultivation has to make him look sideways.

It's not terrible to have a strong talent, but if you have a strong talent at the same time, you can still endure hardships and be willing to work hard, then it's very scary.

With both hard work and talent, as long as Ye Feng does not die on the road of growth, the future is almost unimaginable.

……

Konoha Village, Hokage Building.

Ye Feng soon arrived here, perhaps because he got the news in advance, and he entered the Hokage building all the way unimpeded. Smoothly arrived at the Hokage's office at the highest point of the Hokage Building.

This is the place to deal with all kinds of trivial matters of tens of thousands of ninjas throughout Konoha, and it is also the highest point of Konoha power and status.

At this time, the three generations of Hokage apes were sitting on the Hokage's chair with a slight frown, smoking a cigarette and bowing their heads in contemplation.

"The attitude of the Uchiha clan is so tough...... But also, the Uchiha clan can't afford to lose this face. ”

Ape Fei Ri took a deep breath, suddenly exhaled a smoke ring, and showed a trace of coldness on his face.

"But the Uchiha clan can't afford to lose this face, can the opinion of the shadow be ignored?!"

Knock knock!

At this moment, a ninja at the door knocked on the door and respectfully reported to the ape flying sun.

"Hokage-sama! Ye Feng has arrived. ”

"Let him in."

Hearing Ye Feng's name, Ape Fei Ri Slash's expression softened slightly, and he put his pipe aside.

Walking into the Hokage's office, Ye Feng only glanced at it slightly, and without looking around, he walked directly to the desk of Sarutobi and saluted gently.

"Hokage-sama!"

"No need to be polite, get up."

Sarutobi smiled kindly and asked, "How have you been living in Konoha all these years?" ”

"It's fine."

In fact, Ye Feng wanted to add, but fortunately he didn't die, but he still held back.

"Actually, how I'm living, Hokage-sama should know it completely."

"Hmm."

Ape Fei Ri Slash nodded slightly, and at the same time, there was a slight hint of appreciation in his eyes.

He had also summoned Bo Feng Shui Men before. Through Ye Feng's two simple sentences, it can be seen that Ye Feng's mind is the same as Bo Feng Shuimen.

Even though he is not yet ten years old, he can think like an adult. In this way, he doesn't need to talk to Ye Feng in the same way as he talks to children.

"I understand, after all, you are from another village, and there are often conflicts between villages...... Especially in recent years, there has been war everywhere. ”

"Your village was directly destroyed by the Sand Hidden Village in the conflict with the Wind Country, one of the five great ninja powers."

Speaking of this, Ape Fei Sun slashed his eyes at Ye Feng, and found that Ye Feng's expression was extremely calm from beginning to end, without any fluctuations in his emotions, and after nodding secretly, he continued.

"It just so happened that our ninja from Konoha Village was near there, and after fighting with Sand Hidden Village, they saved the only survivor from the war and brought you back to Konoha."

"Children from other villages, we in Konoha will encounter difficulties and oppression in all aspects, and I know all the grievances you have suffered in Konoha."

Ape Fei Ri looked at Ye Feng, and his face showed a bit of kindness.

"Don't worry, nothing like that will happen in the future."

"Thank you Hokage-sama for taking care of you." Ye Feng responded softly, and a trace of gratitude appeared on his face at the right time.

Sarutobi smiled happily, "Although I have been wronged a lot in Konoha, at least ...... We don't have any wars in Konoha, do we? ”

"Hmm."

Ye Feng nodded slightly.

Indeed, compared to the small ninja villages in the ninja world, they are worried every day, and judging from the precarious situation, even if the treatment in the big ninja village is worse, at least there is no need to worry about being affected by the war, homeless, and displaced.

――The premise is that the Second Ninja War has not yet broken out, but no matter how fast you look.

"Let him pass the past." Ape Fei Ri slashed a kind smile. "You did a good job the first two days and I saw a really good fight. Yesterday, when Ashikaga-sama and Nakai-sama left, they were still praising you. Suffice it to say, you're actually a great ninja now. ”

Sarutobi paused slightly, changed his tone slightly, and continued: "But ......"

"The talent is very good, and you also need to have a time to grow, and now you are still a little immature. I hope that in the next period of time, you can settle down, continue to practice, accumulate precipitation, and surely bloom your own light in the future. ”

The words of the ape flying sun slash are a bit weird, and they look like they mean something. Because the meaning of this is that you are still too young now, and you should practice honestly.

The question is...... Where did you get the environment for honest cultivation?!

With less than three months to go, the life-and-death duel between him and Uchiha Peichen is about to begin.

After a little pondering, Ye Feng guessed the intention of the Sarutobi Sun Slash, and asked, "What does Hokage-sama mean by asking me to give up the life-and-death duel with Uchiha Peichen?" ”

A hint of appreciation flashed in Ape Feiri's eyes, "No, it's not like that. Although you are very good and excellent, there is still a big gap between you and the Uchiha Han now. So for the sake of fairness, this duel to the death...... will be postponed. ”

"Postponement?"

"You should know the Land of Rain, which is now an ally of the Land of Fire. And that Shinyu Ninja Village was also established with the help of Konoha. Even if Kazuya Nakai will become the leader of Shinyu Ninja Village in the future, the advisors around him will still come from Konoha. Their school teachers, the captains of important teams, are all Konoha ninjas. The ninjas of the rain ninja will study at the local ninja school for three years, and then study in Konoha for three years......"

"Coincidentally," Sarutobi took a puff of his cigarette, "The situation in the Land of Rain is unstable again, and Kiya just needs to increase his troops, and by the way, rotate a group of ninjas." ”

Ye Feng understands in seconds.

――――――――――――

"Nara red deer" touched his shaved bald head and stood on the three-story pagoda of Honganji Temple and looked out.

From here, you can see rain curtains and buildings everywhere.

However, there was a group of people, standing in the rain, standing outside the gate.

These people, if you don't look closely, basically don't think they are human. Wet, ragged, unkempt...... Well, and most importantly, thin and dry, as if they were living skeletons covered in a layer of skin.

They numbly gathered in the castle town, looking at this small Japanese-style castle, or special castle, and whispering.

Zhao Kun knew what they were thinking.

Because, it's tax season again.

The taxes of each country are set by the daimyo of each country, but when it comes to the fiefdoms below, the enforcement is different. Fortunately, the vassals who were born from the family were fine, and the tax rates imposed by the local magnates who were generally subservient to their own fiefdoms were often different from those demanded by the daimyo.

But whether it's the same or not, the taxes that should be paid are indispensable, and they will never be lower.

The big country wants to raise ninja villages, maintain political power and all kinds of pomp, and everyone's food and clothing are based on the taxes collected, so it must be high; Small countries can't afford to raise ninja villages, and they have to go to other countries to hire ninjas, which costs so much, and requires more taxes, plus to maintain political power, pomp, and food and clothing, the tax rate is bound to be high.

Countries with poor land do not have good harvests, and poor countries lack money and have to collect more taxes to maintain their expenses; Countries with rich land have good harvests, rich countries have money, and people can survive if they collect more taxes, so they must collect more taxes......
