A few days later, Xiao was in the stronghold.

The sturdy ninja called the Great Buddha docked his weapon against the wall.

"I'll just say that Hatosuke loves to worry about it, and it's such a big battle!"

"Haha."

Hatosuke looked embarrassed, and Yahiko helped him solve the siege and said:

"Don't say that, Hatosuke is also thinking about everyone's safety."

The first meeting with Hanzo was successfully completed, and the Akatsuki organization once again had a celebration-like atmosphere.

After all, the last time it was just an exchange of letters, but this time I met Hanzo-sama with my own eyes, and he praised them for their efforts to organize.

As mentioned in the letter, the coveted 'diplomatic authority' of the Akatsuki organization was personally promised by Hanzo-sama that he would hand it over to them.

In plain sight, a big man like that wouldn't lie to deceive them, the grassroots rabble, right?

"Chief, when we meet next time, or we will or"

Hatosuke's still worried words were interrupted by Yahiko raising his hand.

"No, Hatosuke, this time it's already a bit rude for our Xiao organization, everyone knows the temperament of Hanzo-sama, and if it is considered a unilateral breach of the contract by him at that time, the previous efforts will be in vain."

It makes sense, but because it makes sense.

Alas.

Hasuke was even more worried, but this time he couldn't find fault with Hanzo-sama.

It's better to say that even a suspicious existence like Hanzo-sama didn't even bring out as many people as the members of 'Xiao' on this meeting.

Of course, this does not mean that Hanzo, as the leader of the Land of Rain, has weakened to the point that he can't even make up the people who support the field.

It's him showing his sincerity.

And that's why Yahiko said that this time was their rudeness

This meeting was originally a 'good thing' that would help the inheritance of the forces in the Land of Rain, but the appearance of a big fight here is a little bit like inheritance.

It's more like smashing the field to let Hanzo-sama let go of power.

And their actions did anger Hanzo to some extent.

Because he demanded that the next meeting be attended only by the leaders of both sides, and that no weapons should be allowed.

It stands to reason that such a request makes Hatosuke feel more like Hanzo's style.

That ninja demigod wasn't a kind elder in the first place.

Just as Hasuke was depressed, a palm put on his shoulder.

"Don't worry too much about Hatosuke, I'll take a good look at Yahiko when the time comes."

It was Nagato who came, and he also went to participate in this meeting.

After all, Nagato is also one of the few high-end combat power in Xiao, and for that Hanzo-sama, no matter how much unqualified the guy is, it is just a dish in the end.

Now even Nagato, who was holding on to his slightly uncomfortable body, was so relieved, and Hatosuke was not very good at saying anything else.

The main reason for annoying Hanzo is also because of his suspicion.

Hanzo-sama, who has always been suspicious, has shown enough sincerity, how can he talk more.

Maybe it's just that the organization is running when the time comes, and it's about to usher in the light?

"Well, no matter what, I must come back safely."

"Ahh

"Hah"

It didn't take long for the day to make an appointment with Hanzo-sama.

Yahiko and Nagato sorted out what they needed to sign the contract, and after leaving all the ninja equipment, they set off

Originally, this time it was supposed to be Akatsuki's original trio.

But Xiao Nan left two days ago because of another border unrest to help nearby villagers and coordinate the fighting.

It's time to come back today. Did you encounter any unexpected difficulties?

The sense of foreboding in my heart still did not subside.

Hatosuke looked at the departing figure of Yahiko and Nagato, and after thinking for a long time, he finally found the other companions of the Akatsuki organization.

"Don't relax too much, sort out your equipment, and if there is a problem, we can reinforce it in time."

Everyone's expressions became more and more weird, and the sturdy man who called the Buddha also hurriedly spoke:

"Huh! Dove help you"

"There is always a chance in everything, what if the worst happens, like those Iwa Shinobi we met at that time?"

However, this leading figure in the Xiao organization, who has always been represented by good speech, is like a lecture at the moment, and he does not stop there.

"Even if the light is coming, we can't relax, not to mention that even if this meeting goes well, it is still dawn, and we are far from the moment when we can relax our vigilance."

“.”

Although the people in the stronghold were still a little reluctant, they also had to admit that Hatosuke had a point.

It's just that they expect it to happen.

As if deceiving themselves, they thought that only if they were sincere and obediently did what Hanzo-sama had asked them to do, would they be able to help the chief's peace talks.

Even if it's just wishful thinking on their part.

"You're the Akatsuki organization of the so-called Rain Country, right?"

"Who? Who are you, report your name! ”

The members of the Xiao organization, who were preparing their weapons, suddenly heard a commotion coming from the door.

And one of the sources of that voice is that it makes Hatosuke feel very familiar.

"MY NAME IS JOJO, AND I HAVE HAD A FEW ENCOUNTERS WITH YOU, SO I CAN PLEASE LET YOU KNOW. Well. Who's that? ”

"Who's ??? that"

"Aren't you here to find fault?!"

Is this familiar voice really the adult?

Seeing that his companions stationed at the door were about to clash, Hasuke hurriedly jumped down from the window.

"Hatosuke-senpai?"

For ninjas, jumping one or two floors is just a daily running ability.

It's just that such an eager appearance still somewhat frightened the members of the Xiao Organization who were guarding the door.

But Hasuke didn't have time to explain, and turned his head to look at the comer.

"It's really Mr. JOJO!"

"Oh, yes! It's called Hatosuke. ”

“.”

The difference in attitude between the two of them caused the other members of the Xiao Organization to cast some embarrassing glances at each other.

But Hasuke knows that this ronin swordsman called JOJO is so virtuous.

It's better to say that his current attitude is actually not bad.

"MR. JOJO, HAS HE CHANGED HIS MIND AND IS WILLING TO JOIN OUR ORGANIZATION?"

The black-robed and masked JOJO tilted his head slightly.

"You already understand what you said before?"

Hasuke's words suddenly stopped.

I'm still enlightening."

"Let's not talk about that, I just happened to be here when I was about to leave the border, and I heard a little news."

DOSUKE WAS SLIGHTLY STUNNED, AND ASKED MR. JOJO TO COME AND CONVEY THE NEWS?

"You remember the guys I killed before, right? It's those guys who use transformation techniques to disguise themselves as Iwa Shinobi. ”

"Nature. Yes, remembered. ”

"Ah, those guys are from Konoha and are led by the man known as Danzo, I'm just here to warn you that it's best not to dream when you meet these guys, although I don't hate guys who like to dream."

"Danzo?!"

Wei Tuoten's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

"Oops!"

He turned back to the room and shouted:

"Everyone get ready immediately, the leader is likely to have an accident!"

Seeing this situation, JOJO seemed a little surprised.

"Am I late?"

After a little hesitation, Hasuke finally had the cheekiness to make a request to the powerful swordsman who had saved him once.

"No, Mr. JOJO came just in time, please. Help me wait one more time. ”

The black-robed man in the mask was a little silent, as if he was puzzled by the request of Hasuke in front of him.

"Mr. JOJO should know how much the man known as Danzo loves to slaughter innocents, I can take you there"

"Haha. You seem to know me very well, Hatosuke. ”

HASUKE SMILED AWKWARDLY, IN FACT, MR. JOJO COULD HAVE REFUSED SUCH AN EXCUSE

But he still chose to follow.

It seems that this swordsman should be able to remember his own name.
