Although he had been running the Snow Country for several years, this high-pressure brutal rule and the use of money to win people's hearts and minds collapsed the moment he fell.

After seeing the attack of the Konoha Shadow in front of them, the snow ninja chose to surrender very honestly.

Not only that, in order to prevent Qing Shui from being "accidentally injured" because of suspicion, they also took the initiative to take off the chakra armor on their bodies to show their sincerity.

Who knows if the thunder light that can change direction at will will fall on his head in an instant because of the other party's suspicion?

It's always right to be honest.

And not long after taking control of all the snow ninja, the third prince also led a large group of men and horses to the castle.

Although it was a bit belated, considering that they also did their best to march on the ground, it didn't matter if they blamed them for "not being able to save the car".

Moreover, after the change of regime, the security in the castle was still maintained by the men and horses of the third wife, and the wind and waves were also taken to prison under their strict supervision.

As for the group of snow ninjas who surrendered, they may be able to become the new backbone of the snow country in the future. Of course, it depends on Xiaoxue's follow-up treatment.

In this way, without large-scale bloodshed, Xiaoxue successfully regained the power of the Snow Country, and the whole thing had a happy ending here.

On the airship of Nangui, Megumi and Shimizu had a heated discussion about where they were going to eat after returning to Konoha.

They've been out for so long that they've forgotten all the delicious flavors of that food street.

That's the taste of Konoha that is unique.

Xiaoxue on the other side was looking at the blue sky with her cheeks up, not knowing what she was thinking.

A soldier suddenly stepped forward and reminded, "Your Highness Princess, there is the border ahead." ”

Xiaoxue finally came back to her senses, only to see her smile and say, "I can only send you here." ”

It was originally planned to say that sending Konoha back was just wishful thinking on the part of Shimizu and Megumi.

This airship is the most important asset of the Snow Nation today, and it is impossible to go to the center of the continent to wander around, and the supply of fuel is also a big problem.

Soon, the airship began to slowly descend in altitude.

"Hurry up and pack your things." Qing Shui called.

"Oh." The captain spoke, and Megumi could only do so.

So Qing Shui and Xiaoxue were the first to come to the hatch.

"What do you want to say to me?" Xiaoxue said curiously.

"You can see it." He did have something to say to the future queen of the Snow Country, "Actually, the secret treasure of the Wind Flower Family is real. ”

"Ah, I know."

"I thought you thought it was another white lie from your father."

"I'm not stupid, you all care so much, obviously it really exists."

Now that you know, you can still hold back and act as unaware, should you say that the other party is forbearant enough? Or trust him enough to trust him and trust him to tell him everything?

Qing Shui doesn't know.

"The hexagonal crystal is the switch for the geothermal generator, and underneath that geothermal generator hides a door to the treasure."

It turned out that after activating the geothermal generator of the Fenghua Family, thanks to the melting of those thick ice and snow, the door to the secret treasure that was once buried was likely to be discovered by people from the outside world.

And inside, there is a strange ice and snow fruit that Xiaoxue's father told her about when she was a child.

But at that time her father did not explain much about the effect of this fruit, but told her that if she went there one day, she would understand everything.

Because there, buried is the secret of the Fenghua family that has been inherited from the Warring States period to the present.

It turns out that the successive monarchs of the Snow Country have become a powerful ninja who can use ice escape by eating this ice and snow fruit.

"So this fruit is your thing."

Qing Shui took out the Ice and Snow Fruit that he had been carefully keeping, and this crystal clear blue fruit contained a large amount of Ice Escape Chakra.

Xiaoxue didn't take the fruit, but instead said: "It turns out that my father gave me the opportunity to choose. ”

That was one day many years ago.

Fenghua Zaoxue asked with a smile: "Xiaoxue, what do you want to do when spring comes?" ”

Xiaoxue, who was a child, replied in a milky voice: "I want to be a gentle, strong, and righteous princess." ”

So Zaoxue tied the necklace with a hexagonal crystal for her, and then the young Xiaoxue immediately said: "My other dream is to be an actor." ”

Princess...... And actors?!

This made her father stunned for a while.

The memories came to an abrupt end.

At this point, Xiaoxue has completely understood her father's intentions, and her father has given her absolute freedom to choose her future freely.

Do you stick to your dreams or do you follow the fateful path of the kings of the Fenghua family?

Thinking of this, a few tears fell from the corners of Xiaoxue's eyes.

Thank you...... Father.

"Actually, I prefer acting, so I decided to stick to my dream of being an actor."

"And ninja ......," Koyuki remembered the exaggerated amount of training Megumi had told her, so she shook her head and said, "It's not really suitable for me." ”

"Since you need it, take it." Xiaoxue pushed the ice fruit back to Qing Shui.

At this point, Qing Shui no longer twisted, and generously accepted his mission goal this time: "Okay!" ”

"By the way, the crystal from last night...... Is it a package of Hui Tuo? ”

Now that the task has been accomplished perfectly, Qing Shui has no scruples.

Isn't that little girl worried about her image being damaged, so he will carry this black cauldron.

So Qing Shui took over the responsibility magnificently: "I changed it." ”

"Huh?! You ——?! ”

Xiaoxue's face instantly turned red to the root of her ears.

“？？？”

Why such a big reaction?!

Don't......

"Actually, I've always had a question, Konoha ninja...... Are they all so strong? Xiaoxue immediately changed the subject, but her red cheeks were as bright as two red clouds.

"Of course, Konoha is the strongest ninja village."

"And one last question."

"You say."

After taking a few deep breaths, Xiaoxue calmed down her confused mood and said slowly, "Can you tell me, your real name?" ”

After a slight hesitation, Qing Shui replied: "April Qing Shui." ”

"Thank you."

I don't know if the other party is thanking her for saving her, or thanking Qing Shui for telling her the name.

Either way, none of that matters.

"Megumi!"

"Come on." At this moment, Megumi finally packed all her things and came to the hatch.

"Gone." Shimizu pulled the hatch open.

For a while, the howling north wind blew away the girl's hair.

"Huh?" Looking out, the height of these hundreds of meters made Megumi hesitate a little, and she asked, "Don't you wait for the airship to land?" ”

"Xiaoxue is going back to the throne in a hurry."

"Oh yes!" Megumi, who suddenly came to her senses, climbed onto Qing Shui's back, and then the girl smiled knowingly at Xiaoxue, "Goodbye, Queen of the Snow Country." ”

After waving his hand to say goodbye, Qing Shui immediately jumped into the blue sky.

Looking at the figures of the two who were getting smaller and smaller, Xiaoxue whispered: "Goodbye......"

"My Black Knight, April Shimizu."
