Chapter 127: The Fog Comes In
Uchiha Tokumitsu is still very satisfied with the effect of the Kaleidoscope Pupil Technique [God Emperor Birth Spirit Venerable] activating the Fire Light Zun, the Mighty Fire Dragon Technique.
In the conventional five escape ninjutsu system, the common ones that can be condensed into specific dragon shapes are also water escape, water dragon bullets, earth escapes, earth dragon bullets, etc., although Uchiha Tokuko does not have the corresponding attributes of the extended blood inheritance limit, maybe the role and ability after activation are not as good as the fire light zun created by the power of Yan Dun, but it can't resist the dragon shape! Just look good, what more bikes!
But the activation of the water dragon and the earth dragon is not in a hurry.
Due to the excessive consumption of Yan Dun Chakra when performing the Mighty Fire Dragon Technique, and the pupil power consumed in a short period of time also made the left eye a little uncomfortable, Uchiha Tokumitsu returned to the village to rest first.
The streets of Konoha are as noisy and lively as ever.
The selfless sun enthusiastically sows love and warmth, the merchants of Konoha Commercial Street enthusiastically solicit customers to sell, the flow of customers who come and go to buy or play is bustling, and the sparkling cars and horses are unhurried, but it is a good pride in a peaceful and prosperous world.
Accompanied by the Konoha ninja, the Fog Hidden Mission, who came to Konoha for the first time, stood at the intersection of Konoha Road, and everyone looked at the bustling street scene in front of them with fascination.
"Konoha ...... It's a blessing to be so prosperous and comfortable......"
A handsome young mist ninja who was so handsome that it was difficult to distinguish between men and women couldn't help but say what was going on in his heart.
Adhering to the traditional ninja secrecy, the Fog Hidden Ninja Village has always given people a cold, violent, and murderous image.
But that doesn't mean that the ninjas of the fog don't like peace.
Just like everyone doesn't want to wake up and find that they are missing arms and legs, or even that their heads have moved and will never be able to get up again, most of the foggy hidden in their normal minds will not like the current atmosphere of the Misty Hidden Ninja Village.
But the inertia brought about by the foggy tradition is not something that can be changed by the individual.
"The root of Konoha's prosperity lies in the strength of Konoha ninjas, not from some bullshit destiny." The leader of the Misty Hidden Mission, Oni Lamp Masahiko, scoffed at his companion's remarks, "Aren't you worried that you will be punished if you return to the village?" Even the Snow Clan won't be able to protect you! ”
"We, the Fog Hide, are both one of the five ninja villages, why can't we learn from Konoha and enjoy it like this!" The Fog Hidden of the Snow Clan immediately retorted: "It's been so many years of fighting and killing, and now there are no external enemies who want to kill their own people internally, and I don't know what Mizukage-sama wants to do!" ”
"If you don't say a few words, you can probably live to old age!"
Ghost Lantern Masahiko was extremely annoyed when he heard this, although the various ninjas of the fog and hide have a lot of opinions on the contemporary water shadow, but it doesn't mean that they can be so noisy and shouting in public, especially with the accompanying Konoha ninja watching jokes!
"It is the freedom of every ninja to express their thoughts, no matter where they are."
Behind the Fog Hidden Mission, a voice sounded.
"Who's making a big fuss!!"
Ghost Lantern Masahiko was even more annoyed.
Even if his subordinates are open-mouthed, there are still outsiders who dare to interject.
If it were in Wuyin Village, this kind of daring to be presumptuous in front of him would inevitably have to be beaten.
"Do you think I'm not right?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu looked at the Mist Hidden Ninja in front of him with a smile on his face.
"You ......" Ghost Lantern Masahiko was a little speechless.
Judging from the clothing, the man in front of him is a member of the Uchiha clan, and there is a group of Uchiha behind him, and he knows that he is the high-level of the Uchiha clan by looking at the posture.
And it looks a little inexplicably familiar.
The Fog Hidden Ninja of the Snow Clan glanced at Uchiha Tokumitsu several times, and then took out a small notebook from his ninja bag, opened it and looked at Uchiha Tokumitsu for a while, and his expression became a little surprised.
"Masahiko Shangshinobi, you see ......"
Taking the intelligence manual handed over by his companion, Ghost Lantern Masahiko glanced at it, and his face immediately changed greatly.
"Uchiha Tokumitsu!"
Adhering to the principle that it was none of their business, the group of fog ninjas who were hanging high on the side to watch the scenery heard this, and immediately focused their gaze.
There were even a few Mist Ninja who had their hands on top of the ninja bags.
"What? Am I famous in the fog? Uchiha Tokumitsu's face was still smiling, but his eyes became cold, "By the way, can you show me how Kishigakure portrays my information?" ”
"You can read the information if you want to!"
The Misty Ninja of the Snow One Clan stared at the Uchiha Tokumitsu with an unkind expression.
"Is it~ Then why did you appear in Konoha?" Although he touched a nail that was neither soft nor hard, Tokumitsu Uchiha's smile still did not change.
"Lord Tokumitsu, they are the mission of the fog and the ...... who have been approved by the village to enter the country."
The Konoha ninja, who was watching the excitement on the side, saw that the momentum didn't seem to be good, so he hurriedly stepped forward and inserted himself between Uchiha Tokumitsu and the people in the fog, took out a document and respectfully handed it to Uchiha Tokumitsu.
After many rounds of public opinion attacks that were agitated, Uchiha Tokumitsu's reputation in Konoha was extremely notorious, and the most rumored thing was that Uchiha Tokumitsu hid a knife in his smile, smiled on the surface, and turned his face to kill mercilessly the next moment.
As a resisting ninja who received the Fog Hidden Mission, he didn't dare to let the situation continue to ferment, who knows if Uchiha Tokumitsu would suddenly burst out and behead a few disrespectful Fog Hide.
If it really gets to that point, he will definitely not be able to please this special ninja.
"Really......"
Uchiha Tokumitsu took the customs clearance document presented by the Konoha ninja, and after a few glances, he found that the procedures were all in order, so he handed the document back to the person in charge of reception.
"Since you have entered Konoha, you must follow the rules of Konoha, and do not deliberately gather crowds to intimidate the villagers, otherwise I will arrest you for the crime of picking quarrels and provoking trouble."
Uchiha Tokuko said faintly and the people of the Mist Hidden Mission.
Then he ignored Wu Yin's reaction and led the crowd to leave.
"What kind of status is he in Konoha as a ninja? The tone is so big! After Uchiha Tokumitsu left, the fog hidden ninja of the Snow Clan complained to Konoha who was in charge of the reception, "He actually kept saying that he was going to arrest us, doesn't he know diplomatic etiquette at all!" ”
"Lord Deguang is the assistant chief of the police department and the deputy commander of the mobile unit."
Konoha Shinobu replied with a blank face, "The second most powerful person in the police department naturally has the right to carry out arrests in the village. ”
The Fog Ninja of the Snow Clan was speechless.
"He was the one who killed Master Yuanshi......"
"And White Fang, both of whom were sinners who killed Yuan Shi......"
The Fog Shadow Mission began to exchange ears.
"Such power is really a model for my generation of ninja clan......"
After the originally indignant Snow Ninja learned of Uchiha Tokumitsu's identity, his face immediately changed, and his tone changed from indignation to yearning.
"Let's go! Don't be embarrassed here! ”
Ghost Lantern Masahiko sighed, feeling extremely powerless, "Qiannuo-kun, you just look like a woman, why is your personality so fickle......"
"Your words are really discriminatory against women!"
A snow ninja named Chino is annoyed.
A group of misty ninjas, led by Konoha Shinobi, walked towards the Hokage Building.
Uchiha Tokumitsu didn't take this episode too seriously.
Recently, the Hokage building has been quite silent, and even the drug warehouse of the hardcore allies of the Nara clan has been seized by the police department and coerced to sell it at a cheap price, and the Uchiha Tokumitsu is obsessed with studying his own kaleidoscope writing wheels, so he has not paid attention to diplomatic trends.
But it's not a big problem, it shouldn't be long before Sakushige, who heard the news, will come over to share information with him.
Sure enough, in the evening, Uchiha Tokumitsu had just finished dinner with his family, and Sakushige Hachiki rushed to visit.
"Shuo Maojun has been gone for a few days, and his complexion has improved a lot~"
Uchiha Tokumitsu received Sakushige Hachiki in his living room.
"The backlog of affairs in the past has been dealt with almost in the past of the ninja class, and there have been no special incidents recently, so I have been idle a lot......"
Hagi Shuomao explained, and then cut to the purpose of the visit, "Tokumitsu-kun, the Fog Hidden Mission has arrived in the village, do you know about this?" ”
"I know, I met ...... in the afternoon."
Uchiha Tokumitsu felt that he was simply an expert in Shuo Shige, and even calculated the time and intention of Hachiki Shuo Shigeru in advance.
and briefly described the scene when he met the Fog Hidden Mission.
"There are two purposes for the visit of the fog hidden, one of which is to redeem the ninja knife that fell back into our hands." Qimu Shuomao didn't have the intention of continuing to go around in circles, and directly shook out the intention of the fog.
In the reconnaissance mission of the Vortex Country, the mobile troops led by Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hachiki Sakuge encountered the Fog Hidden Shinobi Army led by the Fog Hidden Goji Yakura and the Ninja Sword Seven people who tried to surround and kill, but Uchiha Tokumitsu had already expected it, and secretly transferred the Tokumitsu Red Reserve of the Uchiha clan, and the backhand was half defeated by the menacing Mistin in the future.
Even two of the seven members of the Fog Hidden Ninja Sword were killed, and their ninja swords also fell into the hands of Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hachiki Sakumo.
According to the distribution between the two at the time, Uchiha Tokumitsu got the blaster and droplets, and Hachiki Sakushige got the long knife and stitches.
However, according to the agreement between the two sides at the time of the armistice and Goji Yakura, both Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hachiki Sakuge agreed to let Kigakure redeem the ninja sword.
Now, the fog is coming.
"It's no problem to redeem, but after all, the two ninja knives are our trophies, and if the conditions of the fog hidden are satisfied, it is not impossible to return the ninja knife to the ...... of the fog hide."
Uchiha Tokumitsu didn't care, "What kind of price does Kigakure plan to pay?" ”
"In addition to this, there is a ......"
Before Hachiki Sakumo could finish speaking, Emiko gently knocked on the sliding door of the living room and came in to say.
"Deguang-kun, the Uzumaki family's reed patriarch is here to see you."
"Okay, please come in...... Forget it, I'll go out to meet him! ”
When Uchiha Tokumitsu heard this, he also got up and prepared to go out to greet him, and Hachiki Sakushige also got up to accompany him.
"By the way, what is the other meaning of the fog?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu remembered what Sakumo Hachiki had said before he could finish speaking.
"Forget it, the Vortex Patriarch is here, just let him talk to you......"
Qimu Shuomao said with some distress.
"Shuo Maojun, why have you become a riddler."
Uchiha Tokumitsu glanced at Hachiki Sakushige.
"Patriarch Reed, welcome to you!"
Uchiha Tokumitsu introduced Uzumaki Reeda into the living room, and the three of them sat down in the living room again.
"Tokumitsu-kun, I took the liberty of disturbing the night, but I did have something to discuss, so I had to ......," Uzumaki said with some apologies.
"Patriarch Reed is polite......"
After the two exchanged pleasantries, they returned to the topic again.
"Today, the Fog Hidden Mission arrives, I don't know if Deguangjun knows about it......"
Uzumaki Reina sighed and said to Uchiha Tokumitsu.
"Shuo Mao-kun just mentioned this matter to me, and it is said that there is a demand for the redemption of the loot we seized from the fog ......"
Uchiha Tokumitsu replied.
"In addition, there is a request ......"
Uzumaki Reed's face was tense, and he said, "Mist Yin asks for a new border division with the Vortex Country as the boundary!" ”
Uchiha Tokumitsu was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
"This requires...... I thought the fog had won the war......"
Hachiki Sakushige and Uzumaki Reeds both had serious faces.
"Really? What is Ape Fei's attitude? ”
Seeing the serious expressions of the two, Uchiha Tokumitsu couldn't help frowning, "The old monkey won't be stupid enough to really agree to the conditions of the fog!" ”
"According to the news, after Kirikin put forward the conditions during the meeting, Hokage-sama's attitude was rather vague......"
Qimu Shuomao lowered his head slightly and replied softly.
The so-called vagueness is that there is no direct refusal.
That leaves room for imagination.
"Is there any room for negotiation in this kind of thing?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu snorted, and couldn't help but compare Shinobu to a 6 in his heart, "Patriarch Reeda, has the old monkey already mentioned this matter to you?" What is his attitude? ”
But the country of the vortex was once an ally of Konoha, even if you don't mention the thousand-year-old friendship between the Uzumaki clan and the Thousand Hands clan, after Konoha established the village, the Vortex clan also sent valuable sealing materials, and in the past, they also assisted Konoha in defending the eastern coastal region.
"No one has directly mentioned this to me, but since even I have received this kind of information, it can be seen that ......"
Before Uzumaki finished speaking, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Since the death of the ancestor Uzumaki Mito, the Uzumaki clan has chosen to move closer to the Uchiha clan, and the relationship with the Hokage family has also become cold, and there is no connection in the high-level of Konoha Uzumaki, and the Uzumaki Reed, who is dedicated to teaching the younger generations of the clan behind closed doors, can get the content of the negotiation between the Hokage and the Mist Hidden Emissary, indicating that someone deliberately released the news to test the reaction of the Uzumaki clan.
Although the Uzumaki clan has been hit hard, they have abandoned the foundation of the Vortex Country and joined Konoha.
Although at this time, the country of vortex is already a worthless ruin.
Although the Uzumaki clan and the Uchiha clan are very close, the relationship with the Hokage clan is not very good.
But that doesn't mean that Konoha can say hello and use the hometown of the Uzumaki clan as a bargaining chip to exchange with other ninja villages.
Especially the fog that has a blood feud with the Vortex clan.
Uchiha Tokumitsu's brow furrowed even tighter.
"There is no compromise in this matter!" Uchiha Tokumitsu's tone became gloomy.
"Shuo Mao-kun, what is your opinion? Don't forget that the Land of the Vortex is a place where mobile forces leave blood and tears! ”
"Perhaps...... Hokage-sama is just a delaying tactic...... After all, Sand Yin and Yun Yin have been on the move recently, and the pressure on the border is also very high......" Hachiki Shuo Shigeru also sighed, "But...... There is no room for the territory of the Vortex to be ceded to others! ”
Qimu Shuomao's heart is also very hot.
Maybe it's not good to refuse categorically for a while, maybe it's really out of a delaying tactic, but after all, the country of vortex is the enemy he fought, and now it is used as a bargaining chip and let the bitter master know about it......
Uzumaki Reed's heart is also mixed.
Although there is no possibility for the Uzumaki Clan, whose strength has been greatly weakened after suffering a major blow, there is no possibility of returning to the Vortex Country, the Vortex Country, the Vortex Shinobi Village, and the sea breeze and mountains and rivers are still the ancestral land where the surviving Vortex people are haunted by their dreams. Even if I know that this generation does not have the opportunity to achieve the restoration of the country, after all, it is also a concern and thought, and it is also the spiritual sustenance of the Vortex people.
"It's an indisputable fact that the country of the Vortex is the territory of the Uzumaki clan."
Uchiha Tokumitsu said to Uzumaki, "First of all, no matter what the village's considerations are, the Uchiha clan will always be a solid backing for the Uzumaki clan, and will definitely support the Uzumaki clan's legitimate requests. ”
"Thank you Uchiha for your support......" Uzumaki Reina's eyes also glowed with water, and he bowed his head, "We all know that there is no possibility of returning to our ancestral land and recovering our country, but we don't want the old land to fall into the hands of others, especially the enemies of Uzumaki...... Otherwise, even if we return to the Pure Land, we will not have the shame to face our departed ancestors. ”
Uchiha Tokumitsu hurriedly picked up the whirlpool reed, and comforted him with kind words.
"Shuo Mao-kun, if the fog is to redeem the ninja sword, you must ask our opinion, and please help at that time."
Uchiha Tokumitsu turned his head to Hachiki Sakushige.
"That's exactly what this visit means!"
Hachiki Sakumo also agreed very simply.
"However, it is not a way to leave the country of the vortex idle, so it is better to transfer the garrison battalion of the Eastern Border Defense Force to the country of the vortex......"
Uchiha Tokumitsu thought about it again and made another suggestion, "What does Ashina Patriarch think?" ”
It is also the practice of the border armies of Konoha to station large battalions of border troops in neighboring small countries, and the purpose is to expand their sphere of influence and influence, even if there is a war, they can fight in the territory of small countries, and avoid affecting the mainland of the Fire Country as much as possible.
However, in the past, due to the presence of the Vortex Country in the eastern coastal area to help assist in the defense, and the defense force of the Eastern Border was notoriously weak, the Eastern Border Army has always been stationed in the territory of the Fire Country.
"No opinion!"
The whirlpool reed is a great joy.
If this was possible, it would be a surprise to the Uzumaki Reed and even the Uzumaki clan.
Even if there is no possibility of recovering the country, if the border troops move to the country of the vortex, then the Vortex people will be able to return to their ancestral land occasionally to worship.
"What do you think?"
"This is feasible, but the current strength of the Eastern Border Defense Force alone is not enough to transfer the main force to the country of Vortex while the coastal part......"
Sakushige Hagi believes that it is feasible, but also points out the difficulties that exist in reality.
"The strength of the border troops is insufficient, and they can be reinforced, as long as they have the heart, there is nothing they can't do."
Uchiha Tokumitsu replied, "The point is how to make this happen!" ”
Hagi Sakumo and Uzumaki both nodded in agreement.
