The prosperity of Kyoto Castle is far beyond Itachi's imagination.

With a large number of people gathered, the streets in the city are not crowded and chaotic.

Under the prompting of various rules, everyone carried out their work in an orderly manner.

Polite, civilized...... Such words kept coming to mind the moment the weasel walked into the inner city.

On the clean and tidy streets, there is hardly a trace of garbage in sight.

If it is said that after entering the outer area of Kyoto, Itachi sees the prosperity of the Fire Country as a great power in the ninja world,

The officials of the towns, neighborhoods, and villages managed the areas under their jurisdiction in an orderly and prosperous manner.

Then in the inner city of Kyoto, Itachi saw that as a large country, the daimyo was strict in terms of regulations.

Perhaps, everything in the inner city of Kyoto seems extravagant or even extravagant, but all of them highlight their respective classes and emphasize the 'good and bad' of blood.

After Sarutobi's identity was verified, in accordance with his 'low-key and concise' requirements, the retainers sent by the daimyo did not make too much publicity, but directly bought the carriage for money higher than the market price, replaced the groom's position, and drove the carriage towards the center of Kyoto City, the location of the Daimyo's mansion.

Along the way, the ferret followed the window, and from time to time he could see some interesting scenes.

as

Residents who were born as 'landowners', 'merchants', and 'commoners' avoided the officials who sat in a sedan chair,

When he met the noble princes who wore gold and silver on the six sedan chairs and were hugged by dozens of servants, they were also sincerely afraid, stopped the sedan chair and bowed down to the ground.

And the Cangtian family, which is also a prince and nobleman, as a distant relative of the previous generation of daimyos, is different from the ten courtyard families of this generation of daimyo wives in terms of pomp and circumstance.

Similarly, as a relative of this generation, the Shiyuan family is different from the real 'imperial family' Sakamoto family.

Dress, pomp, salutation......

People highlight their class in a variety of ways.

To live in such a class-defined city, although everything seems to be prosperous, civilized, and decorous...... But in reality, except for the people at the top, everyone else lived a very tired life.

Even though, this is the safest area in the Land of Fire, even safer than Konoha.

Even so, it is the center of the economy, politics, and culture of the Land of Fire, and even the center of the ninja world.

But the people here should actually be very tired.

Itachi even felt that as the lowest-ranking commoners such as cloth clothes, rich people, and merchants, perhaps the smile on their faces never stopped the moment they walked out of the house.

The reason, of course, is a humble and flattering smile, and it is better to survive in this city.

There is no doubt that the policy pursued by the daimyo in the city attached great importance to the emphasis and consolidation of classes, and at the same time, the relationship between blood and class was supreme.

Is this what Sakamoto Yusheng said at the time, what he wished I could see?

An idea came to Itachi's mind.

Perhaps, in his eyes, he should think that I will pay more attention to the observance of rules and civilized etiquette, and will not always observe everything as a whole, including the thoughts of people at the bottom.

But in addition to the city's own class system, Itachi also found a point.

That is, there are no ninjas in this city, or ninjas on the surface.

When he was in the outer area of Kyoto, Itachi was sitting in a carriage, but from time to time he could still see ninjas from Konoha who seemed to be carrying out various commissions and garrison tasks, but in this city, he did not see a single ninja.

The figure that ran around on the rooftops disappeared in this city.

Are ninjas not allowed in the city? Or rather, it's all hidden.

Itachi guessed in his heart.

With the retainers of the Daimyo Mansion as horsemen, although the carriage they rode in was unremarkable, along the way, no one dared to scold them for stopping and saluting, and the road was unimpeded.

It seems that the retainer who led the way had a relatively special status, and he led the way, and both officials and nobles in the city knew that the person who came was an important guest of the daimyo.

"Three generations of adults, the Daimyo's Mansion has arrived."

Soon, as the daimyo retainer and the guards had a whispered conversation, the carriage passed through the low wall outside the daimyo's mansion, and the sound of the wheels slowly stopped, and then the retainer's respectful voice sounded from outside the car.

When Itachi, Sarutobi, and Kakashi stepped out of the curtain and stood in the carriage, the retainers had already set up a small, expensive-looking staircase between the driver's seat and the ground.

Even, he lowered his head and raised his arms high, acting as a handrail.

Ape Flying Sun Slash turned his head and glanced at it, jumping directly from the driver's seat to the ground, his control over his body was so subtle that the gravity when he fell to the ground did not stir up a single bit of dust.

"Itachi, I'm going to meet the daimyo next."

Then, he spoke slowly, "I'll ask them to find someone to take you to His Royal Highness Yusheng, come to think of it, you miss him very much." ”

The meaning is obvious, Sarutobi doesn't want Itachi to go with him to see the daimyo.

"I do miss him a lot."

Itachi didn't care, and replied softly, also jumping off the ground from the driver's seat.

Similarly, his movements are similar to those of the Ape Flying Sun Slash, and his control over his body is very precise.

And for this, Kakashi was a little surprised and looked at Itachi a few more times.

It was the first time he had learned about the ...... The strength of a child who once had a one-sided relationship.

As for the ape flying sun, he didn't care at all.

After almost eating and sleeping together for such a long time, where are some of Itachi's levels, he still knows better, and he definitely has the level of lower ninja, and even faintly close to the quality of the middle ninja position.

But what is the difference between the combat power of the lower ninja, the middle ninja, and the upper ninja for him?

"Please come with me, Uchiha...... ninja-sama. ”

When the daimyo retainers called their servants, Sarutobi followed him to the attic in the center of the daimyo's mansion.

The Uchiha Itachi, on the other hand, followed the servant and traveled in the other direction.

Kakashi, naturally, followed him, nominally acting as a bodyguard.

Compared to the magnificent walls of the inner city and the outer areas of Kyoto,

The castle walls between the inner city of Kyoto and the Daimyo Mansion are much lower, and in the middle of it, an ancient loft that rises high and looks like a lighthouse stands in the middle of Kyoto Castle.

This attic is where the daimyo lived and worked on a daily basis.

However, the attic was only the main residence of the daimyo and there were various buildings in the daimyo mansion, which was surrounded by low walls.

Gardens full of flowers, rockery wonders with beautiful mountains and rivers, and mansions where princes and wives live......

This daimyo's mansion is also like a city, a city with a small scope, but extremely high power and status.

The area protected by Konoha and the Temple of Fire from the north and south,

There are no castle walls, but the area is clearly planned, and it is well organized like the outskirts of Kyoto, a small country.

And in the outer area, there is an inner city with obvious classes and many rules,

The inner city is the place where all the people in the outer areas want to squeeze in.

And in the inner city, it is the land of fire and the economy, culture, ...... The place where power is concentrated - the Daimyo's Mansion!

It is the Daimyo's Mansion that all the people of the inner city can only look up to and submit!

In Itachi's mind, the central map of the Fire Nation gradually became clear, and at the same time, some of the plans in his mind began to slowly adjust.

A well-developed plan cannot be completely set from the beginning.

In the process of implementation, we need to constantly make adjustments as the situation changes.
