37, the arrival of the Daimyo

"It's already there?"

The curtain on the carriage was lifted, revealing a middle-aged man in a luxurious costume sitting inside.

It was a very luxurious convoy, with hundreds of people in front and behind, and around the most luxurious chariot, there were twelve people dressed as ninjas, each with a "fire" loincloth tied around their waists.

This middle-aged man stepped down from the carriage and stepped on the human stool, looking at the Konoha gate in front of him, it was really a lot more magnificent compared to the ordinary township.

"Gen-sama."

The three generations of Hokage led a group of ninjas who were already waiting here, and when they saw this middle-aged one, Sarufei immediately stepped forward to greet him.

"Three generations of Hokage, it's been a long time." The middle-aged man smiled lightly and spoke.

"The daimyo came to Konoha in person and made Konoha shine."

This middle-aged man is the current daimyo of the Fire Nation.

The news that the daimyo was going to visit Konoha was also very surprised when Sarufei learned about it, but he was immediately ready to greet him.

"Don't be so polite." Lord Yuan waved his hand, still holding a folding fan in his hand.

He turned to look at the team that was coming with him behind him, "Konoha is in a tight financial situation right now, so I won't entertain you, go to a nearby town to rest." ”

Hearing such words made Ape Fei a little embarrassed.

With the exception of the Guardian Twelve, the accompanying convoy changed direction and left the place.

"Let's go, Sandaime, you want to take me on a good tour of Konoha."

"It's nature."

The news of the arrival of the Daimyo of the Fire Nation in Konoha quickly spread throughout Konoha, which made many people wonder.

It is the first time that a noble body of a daimyo would come to a place like Konoha with a corner like Konoha and say that he wanted to pay homage to a hero who sacrificed his life for the country.

Except for the Hokage and a small number of Konoha high-level officials, the people of the major families of Konoha rarely have close contact with the Daimyo, and their feelings for the Daimyo are also very subtle, only when the other party is the monarch of the country in high up, ruling a huge country of fire, and also governing such a country.

But being able to get the closeness of the daimyo is naturally a good thing for Konoha to come, especially at this time.

At the request of the Daimyo, the three Hokages took him directly to the memorial monument.

Looking at the surrounding tombs and the dense names on the memorial monuments, it also made this Lord Yuan sigh with emotion, he stood there quietly with his hands in his hands, and the folding fan in his hand opened and closed.

"Three generations."

"Gen-sama."

"I've heard that Konoha originally had the upper hand in the war with Iwa Shinobi."

Ape Fei was startled when he heard this, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.

He had no choice but to say: "Lord Yuan should also understand that the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and a momentary victory or defeat does not mean anything. ”

"Really?" Lord Gento turned to look at Sarufei, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was incomprehensible.

"How did I hear that it was because of the ghosts inside that Konoha suffered so many defeats."

Ape Fei couldn't feel the kindness in these words, and he replied stubbornly: "Lord Yuan is really insightful. ”

Gen-sama continued to ask: "Sandaimu, how would you feel if you knew that these sacrificed people had died because of this, and who should be responsible for this?" ”

Sarufei's heart sank, and then said: "It's me who is not strict in governance, and I should be in charge, and after I repel the fog hide, I will remove the position of Hokage, and then Lord Gengen will punish him." ”

Lord Yuan just watched Ape Fei stop all the blame, and after staring for a while, he smiled and said: "The three generations are too serious, no one wants to see such a thing as an inner ghost, how can we use other people's tricks to punish ourselves, isn't this right in the hands of the enemy." ”

"Konoha Village still needs you to lead, and the war with the fog also depends on you, three generations."

"Thank you for your understanding." Ape Fei bowed.

Lord Yuan walked up to the ape flying closer, with a kind smile on his face: "It's just that this matter of the inner ghost should be settled as soon as possible, otherwise if it affects the war with Wuyin, it will really be difficult to escape the blame." ”

"Don't worry, Lord Yuan, we have done our best to investigate the matter of the inner ghost."

"That's fine." Gen-sama nodded in satisfaction.

He stood there and watched the scenery from below, the tombs were surrounded by dense forests, and looked back across the red torii gate to the main road of Konoha.

"Miyome, I'm going to stay in Konoha for a few days, what do you think?"

"Lord Yuan laughed, Konoha is also under your rule, you can live as long as you want, you don't need to ask my opinion, I'm afraid that a small place like ours will make you condescend."

"Hahaha, that's it."

A big Buddha came to Konoha Village, which made Sarufei's heart have a strong uneasiness, he didn't know why the daimyo wanted to leave his own state affairs alone, and he couldn't be the slightest slack in his small village, and the current war with the fog can all rely on this source lord to support in the rear.

As for the matter of the inner ghost, there are not many clues about Ape Fei, and it is certain that this person's status in the village is not low, and all traces are handled cleanly, so he has no way to start.

The list of the top leaders of the village had sifted through his mind countless times, and the names of some people had been put up and taken down by him in the suspicious position.

Some people have hinted at him in private who is involved in this matter, but he doesn't want to believe it without the slightest evidence.

Now that the daimyo has come to put pressure on him because of this, he must come up with the results as soon as possible.

News came back from the front that Watergate's troops had encountered the Kiristin, but it was only a small group of troops, and they were easily defeated.

Mizumon took the initiative to lead people to find the enemy, but Kiri Shinobu went in circles with him and avoided going head-on with Konoha until he started a frontal battle.

Unlike Iwa Shinobi, the sea is behind the Misty Shinobi, which also prevents them from going deep into the Water Gate, and they play a game of cat and mouse with the Misty Shinobi at their own border.

Although the Fog Hidden Ninja has been hiding in the east, it is not easy to deal with, and the famous Fog Hidden Seven Swords in the ninja world have brought great trouble to Konoha Shinobi, and many times the water gate has not been able to touch them.

And the ordinary team would be miserable when they met them, and they were no match for these seven people at all.

This situation makes Watergate feel that it cannot be used.

He wrote back to his village that he intended to set up a temporary camp on the border and get the support of the village.

The letter reached the Daimyo, and without saying a word, Gen-sama sent someone to the ministers to prepare supplies.

This also made Ape Fei feel a little emotional, maybe it's a good thing that the daimyo came, he was embarrassed to open his mouth in the letter when he asked for something before, but now he can explain the situation directly to him.

The daimyo also did not participate in Sarutobi's command of the war and the internal affairs of the village, and only made a money bag and mascot in Konoha.

It's just that when he is bored, he will call some theater troupes, geisha and dancers into the village from time to time.

Sometimes he also shouted to the ape to enjoy the song and swallow dance of the warbler, so that the ape fei sometimes couldn't help but sigh at the corruption of the rulers.

That's nice.
