Chapter 129: [Meet the Daimyo]

Shining in the Spear of the End, Rengominiade.

Itachi's thoughts pause here.

When the true name and posture of the Holy Lance came to his mind, he suddenly had another level of understanding of the power of Artoria, the king.

In fact, she is not only an invincible king who brings hope to Britain,

At the same time, she is a true god who can destroy the world!

Just pick up the gleaming spear, and the divinity contained in it will guide her to another level of being, God.

How powerful is the power of God?

Itachi had never seen it, not even in Artoria's memory.

Because the era in which she lived was a time when the gods had disappeared and the world was gradually dominated by humans.

But there is no doubt that it is a force capable of destroying the world.

Or, rather, a force that can destroy the planet.

Thinking about it like this, Itachi's heart suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Because until now, he had never won against Artoria in a mental battle.

Hundreds of battles so far, not a single chance to gain an advantage.

The figure that was revealed in the space of mental warfare, its posture was powerful and difficult to shake, and it was a completely different appearance for her who occasionally looked cute and innocent in the real world.

If it was a battle with her, who used to be a god, even if he lost, it could be explained, right?

Itachi comforted himself.

Inside the room, fall back into a quiet atmosphere.

Itachi and Artoria look at the same book.

As for Kakashi, who still stayed in the room and never left after passing the word for the three generations of Hokage, he was also reading a book.

It's just that they read different types of books.

In this room, there is a bit of harmony.

……

"Wait to see the Daimyo, if he opens his mouth to say something that can't be answered, you just need to be silent, and I will block it for you."

Sarutobi said it was these two days, but in fact, the day after Kakashi's message, Itachi received a notice from him.

Immediately afterwards, Itachi was neatly dressed and participated in Sakamoto's family banquet with him.

"Okay, three generations."

Listening to the sound of the ape flying and slashing, the Itachi responded softly.

And in my heart, I have another idea about why the daimyo proposed this family banquet.

It's nothing more than the 'deal' I mentioned earlier.

These days, although Kakashi has been secretly watching, in fact, both him and Sakamoto can see his intentions, so when they chat, they are more likely to use metaphors and conversations about various things.

I think it was the daimyo who finally became interested in trading what he called 'knowledge'.

And in the process, it is clear that Sakamoto is not a simple and naïve person.

Itachi knew this clearly from the first time he met him in Konoha.

It's just that compared to two years ago, Sakamoto Yusheng's hiding is more profound.

In fact, from the first meeting in the Daimyo's Mansion to every subsequent meeting, Sakamoto Yusheng was just wearing a mask of arrogant and despised ninjas, dealing with Kakashi in the dark.

Though...... It was indeed possible for him to look down on what they considered to be savage, cold-blooded ninjas.

However, he would never think that ninjas were unnecessary.

It's like when we first met, Sakamoto Yusheng said that he longed for a peaceful and beautiful world.

If someone really believes these words and thinks that Sakamoto Yusheng is a naïve person who has no understanding of war, then probably ......

I'm going to be deceived very badly.

However, if he hadn't seen Sakamoto Yusheng two years ago, maybe he would have been deceived by him that day.

After all, that guy's demeanor and words at that time were so real, he looked down on ninjas from the bones, thought from the bones that ninjas who didn't know how to live were like beasts, and naively thought that peace would be ushered in without ninjas.

I have to say that on this trip, Itachi gained a lot of knowledge from the process of contacting this guy.

Following the ape flying to the sun, Itachi and Kakashi, who had already taken off his animal mask next to him, finally entered the ancient attic where the lord of the country lived for the first time.

Five-storey buildings of different sizes like bungalows are stacked from the bottom to the top.

And by the eaves of its roof, hung red lanterns one after another, like decoration, but also festive,

The window-like area is adorned with a variety of beautiful murals.

Itachi had never seen a style of architecture before, even in Artoria's memory.

It seems ancient, but it's fine.

At least, such a meticulous process of layer after layer of meticulous craftsmanship can not be completed in a few months.

And the appearance is so exquisite, and the interior decoration makes Itachi feel the luxury and outrageous of these nobles again.

Think about it, every ninja war is provoked because of the imbalance of economic development, but in this ninja world, there is still such a group of ...... A profligate and extravagant aristocrat.

To be honest, Itachi couldn't understand.

And next to her, Artoria couldn't understand it.

Maybe...... Maybe the ninja who can travel thousands of miles to carry out tasks for the sake of the entrusted bounty doesn't really value money that much?

That's what they think, and that's all they can say.

"Hokage-sama, please sit down here and wait."

Soon, under the guidance of the retainers of the Daimyo's Mansion, the three of them stepped directly onto the fourth floor.

Come to think of it, it's only so high for outsiders.

The fifth floor is probably the residence of the daimyo for personal rest.

Then, under their guidance, they came to the banquet area that had been prepared for a long time.

On each side, there are three low low tables, and the floor is covered with soft and expensive cushions.

Sarutobi sat directly at the first low table, the same as the first one opposite.

Then, Kakashi took a seat at the second low table, and Itachi was the third.

As for the middle area, it seems to be musicians and dancers...... A place where we can show our talents.

"I'm sorry, I was rude to let the guests wait here."

"I just chatted with the children about a few common words, and I accidentally forgot the time."

"Day cut, forgive me."

Soon, with a loud voice, a slightly old man with a slightly shrunken figure stepped into Itachi's eyes.

He was dressed in a long robe and wore a fan-like high hat embroidered with flames.

And in his hand, he also held a small fan, which was half-covering his face from one to the other.

And behind this old man, there was a sturdy young man dressed in black, and a thin young man dressed in white.

Daimyo Sakamoto, Natsuharu Sakamoto, and ...... Sakamoto Yusheng.

This is the first time Itachi has seen the lord of the Fire Country, and to be honest, it is a little different from the calm and atmospheric person he imagined in his heart, and he looks like a ...... Smiling tiger-like.

And the tone of his voice has a greasy, slow-paced feeling, which is completely different from the aristocratic posture that Sakamoto Woo was born in front of him.

But it's good, it doesn't look mediocre.

Although Sakamoto Daimyo has entered old age like Sarutobi Hichicho, his physical function has declined.

He was more of a merchant than a king.

Itachi unconsciously evaluated in his heart.

He had thought that the Daimyo would be a king as calm and implicitly powerful as Artoria, but in reality, he had no momentum to speak of.

Compared with Sakamoto Daimyo, the eldest son behind him, Sakamoto Natsuharu, is more eye-catching.
