Chapter 56: The Moment of Decision

windy, cold; leaves, begin to fall.

Just as the sky was misty and gloomy at this time, when he came to the door of Konoha , Yanagi Kenkage's heart was heavy.

Everything that happened in the Roaring Dragon Valley was like a dream, and he saw Kakashi's father; However, it can't change anything, after Jian Ying left, in the days that followed, he saw other souls who were still nostalgic for "Yellow Springs".

The reason why he was able to come out was that he met the guy who got him into this situation - the ninja who practiced ninjutsu.

This ninja named Chion Yin Owl accidentally obtained the inheritance of the sealing technique, and later learned about the past of the Roaring Dragon Valley in a Uzumaki Clan's literature, so he set his sights here.

I thought that through the sacrifice and stirring of the soul, I could let my soul and Chakra be accepted by that half-broken space, but I didn't expect that my strength was insufficient, and I couldn't find the shortcomings inside, and finally fell short.

Before Kenkage left, Yin Owl Chiyin taught Kenkage her knowledge.

He didn't mention any conditions, he just told Jian Ying not to let this knowledge be cut off.

Even if it was Qimu Sakumo, who was also from the same village, Kenkage also vaguely refused when he expressed his hope that the other party would teach him swordsmanship, Yanagi Kenkage didn't expect this guy to tell him such important knowledge.

How could the Yanagi Sword Shadow, who had a good eye, not know their value, and the deepest memory was the plain face of the Yin Owl Qianyin that he saw when he looked back.

People of the same race may not be of the same kind, and people of different races may not be enemies.

With the help of Yin Eagle's Qianyin, Sword Shadow left that world, but he also missed the middle ninja exam.

Before returning to the Land of Fire, Yanagi Kenkage learned about a series of actions of Sand Shinobi, and the death of the three generations of Hokage was naturally rumored in it.

He slowed down and took a few days to return to Konoha, and now, standing in front of the gate of Konoha, Yanagi Sword Shadow stopped there, not knowing what he would face after entering.

The ninja guarding the door had a serious face, they didn't embarrass Sword Shadow, they just wondered that he hadn't come back for months; It's just that the current Konoha is immersed in pain, whether it is a ninja or an ordinary villager, the mood is depressed, and after discovering no other problems, let the sword shadow enter the village.

As usual, Yanagi Sword Shadow went to Teacher Luo Yuanming first.

It's just that, unlike the previous time, Teacher Luo Yuanming only warned him to be careful of Tuan Zang, and then he didn't say anything.

Leaving the teacher's house, Yanagi Jianying's mood was extremely heavy, he didn't want to cause trouble, but trouble always followed. Although there were all kinds of tempting things in these troubles, however, he really wanted to live some simple days. It's not like now, so that the rear that should be stretching its mood becomes a daily worry.

"Squeak-"

Open the courtyard door, look at the yard that has not been taken care of for months, pick up a dustpan and broom from the corner of the wall, and start cleaning up the garbage present.

Three hours passed quickly, and the inside and outside of the courtyard were cleaned by him. This cleaning didn't use ninjutsu, he just sat down mentally and physically exhausted, and suddenly stood up again, he looked at the courtyard door in the hall, bent down and poured himself a glass of water, blew off the hot air, and sipped it one by one.

After a few minutes, Yanagi Sword Shadow put his gaze on the courtyard again and spoke, "Are you the Shadow Division, or the Roots?" ”

In the courtyard at this time, there were four black-clothed ninjas wearing animal masks.

Hearing his question, one of the ninjas said, "Yanagi Sword Shadow, since you have been away from the village for a long time several times, please come with us!" ”

Sword Shadow placed the cup on the low table, stared at them, slowed down and said in a firm voice, "It seems that it is the person of the 'root'...... I did not receive a warrant from the Board of Elders. ”

"This is!" Without waiting for Kenkage to continue, the ninja took out a scroll as if in defiance, and threw it at Kenkage.

Catch the scroll with one hand, and the sword shadow uses perception to detect and avoid being hit.

When he found that there was no other means inside, Yanagi Sword Shadow's heart really sank. Although he didn't know what Tuan Zang's attitude was towards him, and he didn't know what the old boy had in mind, Jian Ying really didn't think that he could reach an agreement with him, and the final result was definitely something he didn't want to see.

"Can't you help but face it?" If he doesn't have equipment in his body, Sword Shadow will resign himself to leaving his fate to others, because after knowing the follow-up of the story, he knows that without his unique talent and bloodline, it is impossible to complete the battle of one enemy and ten thousand.

It's a pity that God has given him extraordinary capital, and with them, how can Sword Shadow watch himself still being manipulated. This is simply an irreconcilable contradiction, although taking a step back does not necessarily mean a dead end, but is there really room for retreat?

Sorting out his current mood, Jian Ying closed the scroll and nodded to the four ninjas in the courtyard: "I'll go with you." ”

The Root's headquarters was underground, and Sword Shadow looked at the vast space, praising its founder.

The technology tree in the ninja world is a little crooked, and Jian Ying has studied the technology here before, and the result is very depressed, except for technology, everyone is normal, and the only thing that can see the problem is that he is simply dumb and eats Yellow Lotus.

Walk across the bridge across the huge space and come to the building opposite.

The four ninjas who were following Kenkage stopped in front of a door, and the person on the left stepped forward to open the door, turned to Kenkage, and said, "Go in!" ”

Yanagi Kenkage stepped forward and stepped into the secret room underground.

Danzo, a ninja from the same period as the third Hokage, is also a disciple of the second Hokage.

Glancing at his bandaged right eye, the sword shadow shifted his gaze to the rest of the room.

In addition to Danzo, there were four ninjas at his side.

I think it's a cronie in the "root", I don't know which two are the subordinates who appeared in the original book, as for the other two, even if the strength is not as good as the oil girl to take the root and Zhongshan Feng, it is not much better.

"Shinobu Yanagi Sword Shadow, I've seen Lord Tuanzang." Kenkage placed his right hand in front of him, put his index and middle fingers together, and stood on his chest, facing Danzou with a ninja etiquette.

The ninja did not appear for a long time, and although the six immortals passed down the ninja sect, it was generation after generation of ninjas who carried it forward and caused the ninja clan to stand side by side. Therefore, the etiquette of the sword shadow is not wrong, but in the perception of the vast majority of people who have inherited the samurai tradition, it is a sign of disrespect for the superior.

When he made this decision, he waited for someone to jump out and accuse.

To Kenkage's surprise, the four ninjas standing on either side did not say anything, perhaps all angry, but did not scold.

The expression on Tuan Zang's face did not change at all, and the sword shadow looked at his right body, knowing that those places had been invaded by the cells between the Thousand Hand Pillars, plus the other gods in his right eye, if used properly, it was simply a weapon for gods to block and kill gods.

It's just a pity that the power of the other gods is also very limited, if there is no chakra between the thousand hand pillars, the cooldown time will be as long as more than ten years.

"Yanagi Sword Shadow, it seems that it is not easy for you to come over."

"......" Jian Ying didn't speak, not because he had nothing to say, but because he was afraid of being caught by the other party.

Even if the actual age adds up to more than forty years, the experience in the struggle with people is almost negligible. What's more, the old thing in front of him is seventy years old, and he has been fighting with the sky, the earth and people all his life.

Seeing that the sword shadow didn't speak, Tuan Zang stared at him and asked, "Let's talk about it." What happened this time? Is there another great chance that you have come across ......?"

Jian Ying sighed and spoke, "It's not a chance, it's just a few ...... that shouldn't be encountered." Count it as a 'human'! ”

"Tell me clearly?" Tuan Zang's tone was stiff and rigid, and even if the next sentence was followed by "kill the sword shadow", he couldn't judge his inner thoughts.

"Lord Danzang should be able to investigate the past of the Roaring Dragon Valley. I...... I'm lucky. Affected by the goal of this mission, he entered a space where the dead were stranded, and met Mr. Hachiki Sakumo..."

He didn't continue, because Danzang's goal had changed, more solid and more oppressive.

Sensing the oppression given to him by the other party, Jian Ying judged in his heart that this inexplicable danger should come from the right eye hidden behind the bandage, the other gods.

The guards who can be by Tuanzang's side, not to mention strength, just seeing is not ordinary, no matter how calm he is, when he heard Jian Ying talk about Qimu Sayun, he couldn't keep calm.

Danzang took a deep breath, that eye looked directly at the sword shadow, and said in a flat tone, "How did you get out?" ”

"I'm a living person, there will be a glimmer of life there, I just grasped it." How could he say that he had the help of the target ninja, and through the analysis of the space, he understood its flaws.

There is too much knowledge involved in it, and a lot of it has been lost, and if the other party is three generations, the sword shadow may still trade it.

"You're lying."

Danzou suddenly became stern, and a solid pressure was transmitted to Kenkage, and at the same time, four ninjas next to him appeared beside Kenkage, holding long knives in both hands, and the blades fell on Yagyu Kenkage's neck.

When he lowered his head slightly, his chin touched the cold blade. Yanagi Sword Shadow looked up at Tuan Zang, without the slightest panic, and said, "My lord, that's why you asked people to bring me here?" If so, it would be easier to throw me in prison. ”

"Yanagi Sword Shadow, you acted without authorization, you have been away from the village for many years, you are like a traitor, don't you know the crime?"

Jian Ying didn't want to be splashed with this dirty water by him, so he raised his head and said, "My lord." The three generations of adults and the elder group have already made a decision on this matter, do you have the power to overturn the decision of the Hokage-sama and the elder group? ”

"It's useless to talk too much. You are now at the 'root,' not in front of the body of elders. ”

"Looks like you're going to have to hold me here, my lord."

Tuan Zang's expression did not change at all, he knew that the young man in front of him would not obey his orders and hand over those hidden secrets.

A civilian ninja with no bloodline boundaries and no family inheritance, even with the help of the power of multiple shadow clones, would not be able to reach the current level. Although he worked harder, harder than many people he saw, he was still far inferior to what he showed. Just the ability to recover after using the shadow clone is a mystery.

Since discovering that shadow clones can share memory experiences, it is not that the "roots" have not used this method to cultivate combat power, but without exception, they have not succeeded. Even if you barely improve your strength in a short period of time, this cultivation method is not advisable, it greatly shortens the life span of people, and many ninjas who borrowed this method died of exhaustion before the age of sixteen, and most of them died suddenly in the middle of ordinary tasks.

There are all kinds of indications that Yanagi Sword Shadow must have hidden something important.

It's a pity that there were three generations of Hokage in the past, and it was impossible for Danzang to reach out, but now, he swore that he must find out the secret of the young man in front of him. Regardless of whether this secret can be transplanted to other people, to him, Yanagi Kenkage is a restless guy, and he may be the next Orochimaru.

Although he has a connection with Orochimaru and is still an ally to a certain extent, if there is a chance, Danzang will definitely find a way to get rid of him and clear a stumbling block for Konoha.

"Peng!"

Suddenly, Yanagi's body turned into a cloud of white smoke.

"What? Shadow clone~!! ”

The four "roots" were stunned for less than a second, and immediately turned around and retreated, protecting Tuan Zang's side.

Tuan Zang got up from his seat, as if he didn't care about the sword shadow's deception of them at all, he half-closed his eyes, and said coldly: "Shinobu Yanagi Sword Shadow, on the charge of betraying Konoha, dispatched the fourth team to investigate and bring him back, regardless of life or death." ”

"Yesβ€”" The four of them were half-kneeling.

A moment later, "Root" began to act, and a ninja with extraordinary skills appeared in the night sky, some went to the Konoha Gate, some entered the Sword Theater, and the other went to scout those who were close to the Sword Shadow, and more of them, but they were looking for the Sword Shadow everywhere and vowed to bring his body back.

In the eyes of Jian Ying, what Tuan Zang wants to do is actually negotiable, but he doesn't speculate for more than half a sentence, he has to maintain his position everywhere, and with the one-sided slogan "For Konoha", he forces others to dedicate unconditionally. If this kind of thing happens to other people, Jian Ying will not express his position, will not be biased, and will only watch the play from the sidelines.

But now it's happening to itself, and since that's the case, there's nothing more to say.

The current Yanagi Sword Shadow is still hopeful, expecting the Elder Group to stand up and curb Tuan Zang's behavior.

Going to the end of the world alone seems beautiful, but there is too much sadness in it. Although martial arts Xianxia novels always depict this kind of person as domineering as he is, as arrogant as he is, as proud as he is, and everywhere in the world is home, but Jian Ying is not young anymore, and he understands the pain of drifting around.

How many people in the real world are willing to wander the world?

There will be, but too little, too little, and more people want to settle down, take time out, and get together with their wives and children in the sunset.

No matter how hard and tired I am outside, there is still a harbor in my heart, a quiet place. This is what everyone wants, and some people don't, so try their best to create this harbor for their children, and the expectations from the bottom of my heart can only continue to future generations.

"Don't let me down!" The sword shadow, which existed in the state of the art of transforming all things, "watched" the actions of the "root" and set its "gaze" on the residence of the two elders.

He thought about it, if there was really no way to change Tuan Zang's judgment on himself, he must let Tuan Zang bleed. Since he has torn his face, it is still after the death of three generations of adults, there are some things that he no longer needs to worry about whether he should do it or not
