Chapter 83: Taciturn Empty East Star
The team that protected the daimyo during the Hokage's succession can be said to be impregnable, although the chances of the daimyo being killed in Konoha Village are almost zero.
Dongxing, as the head of the bodyguards in Konoha in theory, is already very exaggerated just by the bodyguard lineup that can be known on the surface. The daimyo escort team includes two shinobi from the Hyuga family, one from the oil girl clan, one from the Inuzuka family, and the guards brought from the capital by the daimyo and Tohoshi himself, and by the way, there is also a medical squad on standby. This is only on the surface, and you can see how much Tsunade attaches great importance to the Daimyo.
In the morning, he accompanied the two cultivators of the Hyuga family, and at noon, Dongxing received his own shinobi uniform and the cos suit that the tailor in the village stayed up all night and half-pulled during the day.
When Kujo Jotaro got the suit in his hand, Tohoshi was very emotional.
The tailors of Konoha are really skilled and intelligent.
The hat that looks like it's only the front half is actually not worn on the head at all. The tailors sewed a black cloth band into the inside of the hat, which was fastened to the head in a turban, hidden in the hair.
Wearing a hat, a long trench coat was worn on the body, this trench coat was also very exquisite, and a piece of metal was sewn into the collar on one side of the chain, and it was only by this that the collar was forcibly propped up.
"Lord Kujo, the daimyo has arrived at the entrance of the village, please hurry up, the escort mission has begun."
Dongxing was still adjusting his clothes in the mirror, and the shadows came out of nowhere to urge Dongxing to start work quickly.
Rush to the entrance of the village.
Yesterday it wasn't so obvious, but today you can see the festive atmosphere.
The reconstruction of Konoha is proceeding step by step, and some of the residents whose houses were destroyed by the war have moved into new homes, while others are temporarily staying at friends' houses and watching their new homes similar to their previous houses be built. The dead never come back, people always have to look forward, and the village also gives some pensions to families who have died. The village is getting rid of the sad atmosphere brought about by the war, and the Hokage's succession ceremony is like "Oki", which has become the first festival after the war that deserves the whole village to rejoice and make a fuss.
The villagers of Konoha actually have big hearts, and with such an opportunity to rejoice, the whole village of Konoha is preparing for the succession ceremony in two days.
It is said that there will be a grand parade in this celebration, and many of Dongxing's male colleagues are already learning the dance to be danced for the celebration.
Kakashi, for example, is one of those people who is not very willing to join in this kind of fun, let alone go dancing after dressing up. But some of Kakashi's friends who had to attend would drag him into the water. Like Asma, because Dad is the purpose of the third generation, Asma must participate in this relatively large celebration, Asma always has to find some of his friends to participate in, friends drag friends, these people's circle of friends is so big, in the end, as long as they are idle, they can't escape.
Watching the villagers happily decorate their houses and clean the streets to prepare for the procession, Dongxing couldn't help but rejoice in his heart, it's good to be a minor, and a minor is not qualified to participate in the parade as a performer, only as an audience.
When Tohoshi arrived at the entrance of the village, the attendant had just helped the daimyo out of the ox cart.
It seems that the dark department notified himself in advance.,Think about it.,It's not reasonable to let the daimyo wait for him.。
The daimyo was dressed in clothes that looked like those of the elite of a certain period of the island's history, with a tall hat on his head and a paper fan in his hand.
As for looks. To tell the truth, such a look is really unjustifiable as the leader of the Fire Country, and it is unsightly. Isn't it really shameful to go out with this kind of look, when you represent the Fire Nation and communicate with other countries?
"Your Highness, I am the guard ninja who is responsible for protecting you this time, and my name is Kujo Dongxing."
Daimyo is a layman, it is convenient to figure this out, as long as he pretends to be cool and serious, and after finishing speaking, he pestles beside Daimyo, and the image of a young master suddenly comes to life.
The daimyo looked up and down at Dongxing, whose clothes were very eye-catching, and an expression of amazement hung on his face with loose pleats: "You are the genius boy that the fifth generation said, the Konoha hero who can defeat the fourth generation Hokage?" ”
I probably know how Tsunade bragged to the Daimyo, and how big his record of defeating the four generations was, even those who were not ninjas who were watching the battle at the time could see it, although after having Tokin and the fully embodied Platinum Star Arashi, Dongxing felt that he had hope for a positive anal with the yellow flash back then.
"Tsunade-sama praised me falsely, I'm just a newly promoted shinobi." Dongxing shook his head, although his duty was to pretend to be as powerful as possible in front of the Daimyo, however, he still had to be faced......
Probably.
The daimyo stretched out his hand and patted Dongxing's shoulder: "Young man, don't be too modest, although I don't know much about the strength of ninjas, but I heard from the five generations that you are a genius who can fight with the legendary three ninja Orochimaru when you are under the ninja, even if it is me, I have heard of the name of Orochimaru." Now that you're all forbearing, you must be even more powerful, right? ”
Dongxing really wants to tell this that strength is not directly related to the level appointed by the village, and there will be a lower ninja in Konoha Village who can hammer a few shadows casually in the future, so let's just say that now, there is an old lower ninja who is close to the shadow level. But it is idle to explain this kind of problem with this one.
Okay, you say yes, just do it.
The daimyo only casually exchanged a few words with his guards for a period of time in the future, and after speaking, he got into a sedan chair carried by two people and walked towards the village.
Tohoshi, as a guard, naturally followed the daimyo's palanquin.
"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've been to Konoha Village, and I was supposed to attend the succession ceremony of the fourth generation back then, but it was really unsafe at that time, so I couldn't attend." The daimyo's sedan chair passed through the streets of Konoha, and it was not interesting to look at the streets, so the daimyo simply chatted with the guards behind him who didn't like to talk much.
The daimyo didn't have much hope. Dongxing just needs to be a compliment and casually answer well, ah, yes, yes, qndb will be over.
But Dongxing is definitely not a qualified person: "Has His Royal Highness the Daimyo ever been to Konoha Village?" ”
The daimyo glanced sideways at Dongxing in some surprise, and the daimyo was happy to chat with someone who was willing to answer, there were not many people in the Daimyo Mansion who were willing to chat with him like this, recalling that he had come to Konoha Village before, the Daimyo still had some impressions: "That was when I was a child, at that time, the shadow of Konoha was still the third generation, I came to Konoha with my father, the daimyo came to Konoha, at that time, Konoha Village was not like now, it was not so prosperous." ”
To be honest, Dongxing actually doesn't understand the way these countries are governed in the ninja world. The military force is very polarized, and the combat power outside the ninja village is not only ordinary soldiers, but also the ninjas sent out by the ninja village or the ninjas cultivated by some noble families. Ordinary armies, even if they are thousands of people, have to finish playing when they encounter a battle squad led by a shinobi who is good at ninjutsu, and it is the ninja who can really affect the outcome of the war between countries.
However, as the real center of the country's military power, the Ninja Village does not participate in any management and does not interfere in anything other than providing financial assistance.
As the supreme leader of the country, the daimyo did not even come to inspect or visit the military center for several years or even more than ten years. There are even times when the Ninja Village Hokage Replacement will not come to visit once, which is almost like completely delegating the country's military power. Should I say that the daimyo is too broad-hearted, or is it really too Buddhist, there has never been a shortage of people who want to rule the world, if there is really someone who can unify the ninja world, then it is no different from unifying the world, and at that time, the daimyo of these countries will not have the right to speak at all.
Although I thought so in my heart, it has been more than sixty years since the Naruto World had the system of Ninja Village to now, and I haven't seen these daimyos, and Kage has made changes or objections to such a system, so Tohoshi doesn't plan to say this: "Really? Actually, I didn't officially become a ninja in Konoha Village for a long time, and I thought that Konoha Village had always been like this. But I've been in a lot of places, and Konoha Village is really the most prosperous place I've ever seen. ”
"Uh-huh~" The daimyo raised his index finger and shook it: "Konoha Village is indeed very good, but compared to the capital of our Fire Country, it is still a little worse." ”
The Daimyo's EQ is quite high, and then he added: "Of course, the development of Konoha Village really surprised me, Konoha Village seems to be the village that has received and completed the most tasks among all ninja villages, and this Hokage has done a good job." ”
"It's true that there is often a shortage of manpower in the village due to too many tasks, and many of the ninja colleagues have no time to spend the money they make." Dongxing said this in a particularly regretful tone.
When it comes to making money and spending money, the daimyo who is a traditional aristocrat really became interested: "Oh? What do you mean by that? ”
Dongxing deliberately led the topic in this direction: "Although I haven't been in Konoha for a long time, I know how busy everyone is. Although the number of ninjas who can go out on missions in Konoha Village is close to 10,000, most of them are in the form of squads. In this way, the tasks in the village are always short of manpower, and many ninjas have just finished the task and return to the village to recover from their injuries before starting the next mission, although the reward for the task is good, but there is no time to spend it. ”
"Really?" The Daimyo was even more interested: "If you want to say that, those ninjas who are not seriously injured can enjoy life with the money they earn while recuperating from their injuries." ”
Dongxing shook his head: "It's not that simple, the ninja needs to pay for the mission, it costs money to buy the necessary intelligence, it costs money to maintain their equipment and buy medicine, food costs money, and treatment is also a big expense." Ninja is a high-risk profession, many civilian ninjas will choose to save even if they earn extra money, if they encounter injuries that are so serious that they can't continue to be ninjas, it is more difficult to continue to live an ordinary life, and if you don't save money, you can't do anything about it. ”
The daimyo never seemed to know about the life of a ninja, and although he didn't feel the same way when he heard such words, he felt how difficult a ninja was, but even the high-ranking daimyo felt a little heavy when it came to words like injury and death: "That's the case...... I really haven't really learned about these things. You say that civilian ninjas have such troubles, isn't there still a ninja family in the village? Do those big families have such problems? ”
"Your Highness, the Hokage Building is right in front, and Hokage-sama is still waiting for you." Before I knew it, the sedan chair had arrived at the door of the Hokage Building.
There's not enough time on the road for Tohoshi to talk to the daimyo about these things.
The daimyo was in the mood to "experience the suffering of the people as a leader", and although it was a bit disappointing to interrupt it, it was important after all.
"Young man, you are very interesting, talk to me more in the past two days."
"It's better to be respectful than to obey."
