Chapter 43: The Maiden and the Secret Guard
The position of the head of the shogun originated from one of the "three and four positions" in the shogunate of the daimyo during the Warring States period, in which the head of the office was the master who was in charge of the security work of the daimyo Naoki and the shogun's mansion, and the Uchiha clan had been hired by the shogun as a guardian ninja for a long time, so the title of the head of the secret guard organization within the Uchiha family also continued to use this name.
It can be seen that the Uchiha clan has a long history of engaging in police work, with a certain historical background and technical precipitation; The Hokage II set up a police department with a thousand hands, and the Uchiha clan was in charge, which can be regarded as a person's best use.
The three-hour meeting of the radical faction was held in the mansion of the Elder of the Ε ena, and the elders of the Elder Ε ena and the heads of the various clans spoke impassionedly, each of them giving important speeches on the far-reaching significance of the Yanfu concept and its future application prospects to the Uchiha clan.
After a bit of correct nonsense full of language art, Uchiha Tokuba was dizzy, and he only felt that the skills of the elders were no less than those of the general manager level, and the same content could be cut back to the same argument through different angles, and such a level of speech was definitely worthy of the elite upper ninja level.
"Hoo ......"
Finally managed to survive until the moment when the elder announced the end of the radical clan meeting, and Uchiha Tokumitsu exhaled deeply. Immediately, I felt that my head was no longer dizzy, my brain was no longer rising, and the whole person was more energetic.
But he couldn't leave for a while, because the position of the steward of the chamberlain was a real grant, and he had to at least follow the Elder Instant to recognize the people and make them familiar.
Uchiha Nakagen and Emiko also understood that this was a necessary procedure, "Kotokumitsu, let's go back first, we will prepare a supper for you in the evening, and if you come back too late, remember to eat it yourself." β
"Both." In an instant, the elder also knew the meaning of Zhong Xuan's and his wife's words, and said with a smile, "It won't be too long, I will definitely send Deguang-jun home as soon as possible tonight." β
Seeing that Elder Instanta said it so clearly, Zhong Xuan and his wife just chuckled lightly and left.
"Let's go, Deguang-kun." After everyone left, Elder Zen beckoned Uchiha Tokumitsu to go to the Dark Guard Base with him.
Uchiha Nagakei and Uchiha Makoto followed.
Uchiha Tokumitsu glanced at them, and although he didn't say anything to ask, he also knew that the two must have a certain relationship with the family secret guard.
"Chang Jingjun is the captain of the family's secret guard, and he will also be your subordinate in the future." The Moment Elder who walked in front didn't reply, he guessed Uchiha Tokumitsu's thoughts, "Makoto is a medical ninja cultivated by the family, and the Fire Escape Ninjutsu and Puppet Technique are also good......"
Uchiha Makoto's cheeks flushed slightly, with a little shyness, and said timidly: "Tokumitsu Shaojun, I hope to give me a lot of advice......"
Uchiha Tokumitsu was a little unaccustomed to the girl's fiery eyes, and just returned the salute with a little flustered.
He didn't know what to say in this situation.
Although the Moment Elder who walked in front did not look back, he could also detect the movement behind him with his superb perception, and Uchiha Tokumitsu's slightly flustered actions and sudden accelerated heartbeat, although it was different from the calm appearance that was not usually like a child, but it also made a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Deguang Shaojun~ You can ask, how did you study Yan Dun?" Uchiha Makoto's big eyes stared straight at Uchiha Tokumitsu's small face, and although her ears had begun to redden, she still didn't look away.
"I'm ......" Uchiha Tokumitsu's heart beat faster.
Uchiha Makoto is probably about fourteen or fifteen years old, although he is much older than his nine-year-old little brat, but this is too straightforward.
Are all ninja ninjas so direct?
Waiting online, asking for answers, it's quite urgent.
"I also accidentally explored it in the practice of combined ninjutsu, and originally I just planned to add Yin Escape attribute changes to the Fire Escape Chakra to enhance the power of ninjutsu......" Uchiha Tokumitsu replied half-truthfully.
Of course, he can't say that this is his inspiration from various online articles in his previous life.
"Tokumitsu Shaojun is really smart~" Uchiha Makoto's red little face, the big watery eyes flashed brightly, and the pupils seemed to have a tendency to shrink.
This is a precursor to the opening of the Sharingan.
Who are these people......
Uchiha Tokumitsu muttered inwardly.
Although I'm a little unaccustomed to the girl's heat, I'm still a little dark in my heart.
"Deguang Shaojun's chakra control must be very good~" The girl continued to talk, "I also completed the synthesis of Yan Dun Chakra according to Shaojun's ninja method, and I found that it was still quite difficult, it seems that the requirements for chakra control are quite high." β
"It's okay......" Uchiha Tokumitsu replied vaguely, but it was not good to think about it too perfunctory, so he continued: "The synthesis of the Yan Dun Chakra is that the Fire Escape Attribute and the Yin Escape Attribute Chakra are refined and fused at the same time in a ratio of 2:1...... But Sister Zhenqin's Yin Retreat practice is very good, has she awakened the Sharingan? β
"Yes." As soon as Uchiha Tokumitsu's words fell, the pupils of Makoto's eyes suddenly contracted, and a pair of double hook jade writing wheel eyes couldn't wait to appear in the sky.
Seeing this, Uchiha Tokumitsu habitually raised his eyebrows.
The fourteen or fifteen-year-old double hook jade writing wheel eye is considered a genius even among the Uchiha clan.
It's just that most of the Uchiha people's writing wheels are really awakened by intense emotional stimulation, but they don't know what the girl Uchiha Makoto has experienced.
The smile on the face of the Elder who walked in front of him also became more and more prosperous with the interaction between Deguang and the two.
The base of the dark guard is located in the area of the Uchiha Shrine in the south of the Nanga River, although it is outside the village, but the group came to the entrance of the dark guard base through the south gate of the clan land guarded by the Uchiha ninjas.
In front of me is a mediocre stone house, which looks like it is just an annex of the Uchiha Shrine.
In an instant, the elder stood still at the door, and as his hands were sealed, a tunnel entrance appeared on the ground silently, and the stairs paved with cyan stone slabs probed into the bottomless underground.
However, Uchiha Tokumitsu, with his own chakra sense, seems to have another mystery in the underground staircase.
Elder Instant took the lead and stepped inside, and Uchiha Tokumitsu and his party also followed.
After walking about thirty stone steps, the elder stopped in an instant, sealed again, and then pressed on the stone wall on the right, and a secret door opened.
"This is it." In an instant, the elder smiled and beckoned a few people to enter.
There is another staircase in the secret door, and after continuing down, there is an underground lobby of about 200 square meters.
At this time, nearly thirty Uchiha ninjas were already waiting in line.
Uchiha Tokumitsu looked at it, everyone was dressed in the same dress, wearing Uchiha's signature blouse on the upper body, a light belly on the outside, a cross wild sword on his back, a bulging ninja bag on his waist, a ring arm armor on his arms, and shin armor on his legs.
Judging from the dress, it is quite ancient.
That is, it is not like the current mainstream ninja outfit, but like the Konoe ninja of the famous family of the Warring States period.
"The secret guard is the secret army of the family, and during the Warring States period, it existed as a guard under the command of the family ninja army." Instantly, the elder's tone said with a little emotion, "It's just that since the family joined Konoha, our clan has been trapped in the police department, and it is difficult to have the opportunity to independently lead the army abroad, so it is difficult to make a difference in the position of the head of the chamberlain." β
Uchiha Tokumitsu was a little disappointed, he thought that the Uchiha Dark Guard was a special assassination force similar to the Shadow Division, but he didn't expect it to be a guard force.
"But, Deguang-kun...... You're different......" Elder Akina turned to Uchiha Tokumitsu, his face solemn, "Although the monkey of the Sarufei family made you the deputy commander of the ninja army, in essence, with the intention of killing people with a sword and weakening the family, you did a good job. β
Uchiha Tokumitsu bowed and was about to say a few words of modesty.
"You don't have to be modest, Huomen-kun told me everything." Instantly, the elder waved his hand, interrupting what Uchiha Tokumitsu was about to say, "Although you are young, you are indeed acting steadily, far surpassing the clansmen. β
"So, even without Yan Dun's contribution, I plan to hand over the Secret Guard to you." In an instant, the elder looked at Uchiha Tokumitsu solemnly, "It's just that once you really accept the position of the acolyte, you will no longer be able to compete for the position of patriarch, are you willing to accept it?" β
Although it felt a little sudden, Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded silently.
No matter what, he couldn't refuse this old man of the family who had the grace to teach and guide him.
"Don't blame me, Deguang-kun......" Elder Instant sighed slightly, "The position of the patriarch has actually been passed down in the long house, but it was only nominally changed to the family upper ninja competition after Madara-sama left...... It's just that the family can no longer bear the heavy consequences of a tragic civil war like the new round of Naluo Huangquan dispute, so it has to let you be wronged. β
Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded resolutely in approval: "Great Elder, I am very willing, and I am very honored to be given the position of head of the chamberlain. β
Elder Instant touched Uchiha Tokumitsu's hair, "Good boy......"
Then his face tightened, and he shouted: "I would like to be ordered by the Uchiha Patriarch to grant the Uchiha clan the position of Shinobi Tokumitsu to take charge of the shogunate, and the rest of the team will visit immediately!" β
"Huh!"
With the sound of uniform armor, the Uchiha ninjas in the audience all knelt on one knee and bowed their heads in salute.
The Uchiha Nagakei and Uchiha Makoto on their sides also leaned over to pay their respects.
"See the Leader!"
A loud and high-pitched cry echoed through the claustrophobic underground stone chamber.
Rao had commanded the ninja army to go on the expedition, but at this time, Uchiha Tokumitsu's mood was also surging.
In an instant, the elder took out a folding fan from his bosom and solemnly handed it to Uchiha Tokumitsu with both hands.
Uchiha Tokumitsu took a deep breath and bent down to take the folding fan with both hands.
The folding fan is made of iron, and the fan bone that shines with a faint blue light seems to have infiltrated a special chakra metal, and after opening, the word "yin" on one side and the word "yang" on the other side is a rare yin-yang army fan-shaped system in the contemporary ninja world.
"The military fan originated in the Warring States period and is a symbol of the power of the samurai under the command of the daimyo......" Elder Zena touched Uchiha Tokumitsu's hair, "Tokumitsu-kun, I know that you have been smart since you were a child, and you are not familiar with adult ......"
"The only martial artist of the Uchiha family will be handed over to you from now on...... May you be able to raise the command of the Dark Guard and restore the prestige of the Uchiha clan! β
"Obey orders!" Uchiha Tokumitsu looked solemn and leaned over.
