As night fell, darkness enveloped the entire Daimyo's Mansion.

With the help of the fire on the castle wall, Uchiha saw the contents of the defense map clearly, which was roughly divided into four points, the first three of which were all held by ordinary soldiers, from the outermost city wall Kas is, to the residence of the Daimyo.

The fourth point is that the ninja is in charge, and the eight ninjas sent by Hanzo guard the safety of the daimyo.

The country of rain is not as rich as Konoha , coupled with the factor of war, these eight ninjas are most likely to be everyone, and counting the two rain ninjas encountered on the road before.

Based on these factors, there are no more than six ninjas left in the Daimyo Mansion at the moment.

"Six middle ninjas, for the sake of prudence, according to the level of ten people, the defense of ordinary people is easy to avoid, but there are specialized ninjas in the place where the daimyo live."

"Can I deal with ten ninjas alone?"

The Uchiha couldn't help but ask himself, the injury was just recovering from his injuries, even if there was no Shinobi, it would be difficult to rescue the Daimyo, and he was able to be trusted by Hanzo and sent here to imprison the Daimyo of the Land of Rain.

At least in terms of strength, it's definitely not too bad.

His eyes were gloomy, his body was hidden in the darkness, and with the help of the darkness at the moment, he passed through most of the defenses smoothly, and the distance from the Daimyo's Mansion was not far away.

The so-called Daimyofu is not just the name of the city, but it is called because the daimyo lived, and in a sense, as long as the daimyo lived, it could be called the daimyo mansion.

Zheng –

Slowly pull out the short knife.

The Uchiha reached into the black robe with his left hand, ready to strike at any moment, and at the same time, his body kept jumping on the roof, avoiding the reconnaissance along the way, and came to the Daimyo's Mansion in the center of the city.

The Daimyo's Mansion does not occupy a large area, just from the outside, it is just an ordinary building, there is nothing unusual, it is all black, and it looks very mysterious when the clouds cover the moonlight at this moment.

Smack.

The body fell to the ground without making a sound.

Leaning down and observing the situation inside through the window, he was puzzled by the sight that led to a room with a very simple layout, only a table, and nothing unusual.

And, it stands to reason that this is the residence of the Daimyo, not to mention that it is heavily defended, at least there should be a trap or something, but even if Uchiha opened the Sharingan Eye to observe, he didn't find any clues.

Creak......

Holding on to the window, he didn't make any sound, and opened the window quietly.

After opening the window, Uchiha's left hand still held the hilt of the knife, and the blade was covered by the black robe, covering up the cold edge, in order to avoid exposure, Uchiha gathered Chakra on the sole of his feet when he came in, even if he jumped down from the window, he didn't make an obvious movement.

Clinging to the wall, he groped his way forward, and soon searched every corner of the room.

"Strange."

The Uchiha said that he found no trace of anyone's life, and judging by the dust on the table, it seemed that it had been uninhabited for a long time.

This situation made him helpless, he was ready for a big battle, and even considered the escape route after rescuing the daimyo, who knew that this would be the case.

In desperation, he could only comfort himself: "It should be lucky, this place happened to be missed." ”

But what happened next told him that it wasn't that simple.

Treading ......

Walking down the hallway, the Uchiha came out of that room and began to search along the hallway, at first, he was worried that such a blatant action would cause the other party to notice, but then, he realized that he was too careful.

Not to mention alertness, even if he searched all the rooms on this floor, he still didn't find a trace of the daimyo, not even a living person, every room was covered with dust, a picture of no one cleaning all year round.

In desperation, the Uchiha began to try to go downstairs.

The Sharingan is always open to avoid sudden attacks, and down the stairs, due to the perennial rain, the buildings in the Land of Rain are generally low, even the Daimyo's Mansion is only four floors, and the Uchiha takes the technique of searching from the top down, from the very top.

After not finding the daimyo on the fourth floor, he came to the third and second floors, and still found nothing, and the Daimyo's mansion, which should have been heavily defended, was empty at the moment, and no matter how the Uchiha Division tossed, he didn't find a trace of people.

Until he came to the first floor.

……

……

Knock Knock......

A maid knocked on the door with a plate of food and a delicate face, and her eyes hesitated.

With the knock on the door, for a moment, it seemed that there was a voice from inside, and the maid who had been allowed to do so hurriedly picked up the plate and walked in.

Accompanied by the maid into the room.

At the same time.

The figure of Uchiha also appeared.

The rooms in the Daimyo's Mansion were in a circular design, so he hid in one room, about three rooms away from the room where the maids entered, so he could hear them clearly.

in the room.

The Uchiha held his breath, controlling the rate of his breathing, eavesdropping on the conversation that would take place as the maid entered the house.

The sound was intermittent, and it seemed that the other side was also deliberately controlling the sound, and in the end, the Uchiha only got a few vague messages, roughly two points:

1. There seems to be a group of people on the other side, and their identities are unclear, but judging from the maid's sincere and frightened tone, it is very likely to be a ninja.

As for why not the powerful? Whose powerful family has nothing to do when they are full, and they have a good Hanzo Bu Eighth Order to find this famous name that exists in name only?

If it's not a magnate, then only the ninja fits the positioning.

“……”

Rubbing his chin with his fingers, Uchiha's eyes flashed, and he was thinking about the information in his heart, the possibility of being a ninja is very high, and the status of a ninja in troubled times is very high, and he can easily take a person's life, to some extent, even the daimyo does not dare to offend a ninja easily.

"The first point can be guessed, after all, the scope of suspicion is so large, what really makes me wonder is the second point."

"That is, why is it that the first time the maid comes in, it is the ninja-sama who shouts first, instead of the daimyo?"

……

Putting aside the Uchiha Division, who was still thinking, the maid, after entering the room, answered some questions such as the front line, followed by a praise of Hanzo-sama, long live, and then, put down the plate, bowed down and left.

Syllable.

The wooden door was shut, and the maid waited for a few seconds, knowing that there was no more sound from inside, before turning to leave.

At the same time, the moment she turned around, her eyes flashed with a subtle gleam.
