Chapter 450: The Great Rites Discuss Drawing a Clear Line

"In the lower shogunate, the military attache Uchiha stopped the water, and on the orders of the lord - the lord of the land of water, the chief of the Kirikuin Monarch, the governor of Konoha, and the general of the Seiyi, Lord Tokumitsu, I have met the lord of the lord of the Genji family!"

As soon as the word came out, everyone was shocked!

Great Lord!

This is a complete denial of the Daimyo's de jure dominion over the Land of Fire!

Even if most of the counties in the Land of Fire have now fallen under the control of the shogunate, and all the daimyo ministers can control is and individual counties, but the law is the law after all, and the heads of the ministers and the attendant ninjas who seem to have been burned with the steel seal of thought never thought that one day they would be so suddenly denied the divine rule of the daimyo!

No one expected that Uchiha Shisui would be so direct and not save face for the daimyo!

But anyone can think of the meaning behind such rudeness!

Moreover, everyone understands that this must be the meaning of the Shogunate, the Uchiha traitor in their mouths!

The nobles wanted to reprimand the rudeness of the Uchiha Shisui, but when they saw the appearance of their colleagues who wanted to speak and stopped, they retracted when the words came to their mouths, making the scene in the hall very embarrassing.

And although the direct ninjas who had been able to go to the upper hall showed anger on their faces, after seeing that the ministers were silent, they also controlled their emotions one by one, and just stared at the calm Uchiha Shisui with angry eyes.

If the eyes are enough to kill, at this time, the Uchiha Shisui has been cut by a thousand knives.

However, the nobles who are more active in their brains think about it, and it seems that the Uchiha Shisui will also be called "the lord of the Genji family", which shows that the Uchiha clan still recognizes the identity of the ancestor of the Genji family from the daimyo in terms of etiquette, so maybe the situation will not be so bad~

As for whether the Uchiha clan really understood the meaning behind these red tapes, they didn't think much about it at all, or didn't dare to think in this direction at all.

Ever since Uchiha Shisui made an arrogant claim, the Daimyo's body froze involuntarily.

But what disappointed him even more was that none of the ministers under his command who had been honored for generations refuted it, but instead became quails one by one after looking at each other, but those direct ninjas who were born in a reckless manner were angry one by one, pressing their blades, and it seemed that they would wait for an order to rise up and kill the Uchiha on the spot!

The daimyo's gaze fell on the ninja monk Jiriku, but he saw that although he didn't say a word, he also frowned, and the anger of King Kong seemed to be brewing under his calm face, and the hands in his sleeves were also faintly pointing in the direction where the Uchiha Shisui was standing, and it seemed that he was also ready to attack.

Things are still largely under control......

Although he was particularly dissatisfied with the nobles who usually wanted the most to eat and take cards, the performance of the ninjas and ninja monks who directly belonged to him still made the daimyo breathe a sigh of relief - at least he still had the strength to do it!

After making up his mind to trouble these soft-boned ministers afterwards, the daimyo's eyes fell on the Uchiha Shisui who was looking at him levelly.

"I heard that the Uchiha clan is a wealthy ninja clan, so I thought that I could have some kind of demeanor, but I didn't expect that a wealthy high-level like Shisui-kun would behave so rudely!"

Helpless, his subordinates are really not powerful, and the daimyo can only go out to break the deadlock in person: "General Deguang is also a peerless powerhouse who has been blessed by the country for a long time and is supported by all the people, how can he have an arrogant attendant like you by his side!" ”

"The Uchiha clan is not mercenary, not famous, only powerful!"

Uchiha replied proudly, "Worldly slanderous praise is worthless to ninjas like us!" Just as the nobles never cared about the lives and deaths of commoners! ”

"If the Uchiha clan is only afraid of the shock of power and does not focus on virtue, then sooner or later it will go to the destruction of the clan because of the birth of a new strong man in the ninja world!"

Jilu really didn't want to see the daimyo descending the noble lord and the Uchiha Shisui a mere shinobi arguing, so he took the initiative to reprimand: "Even the Thousand Hands clan who once overwhelmed the Uchiha is respectful in front of His Royal Highness Genji, where did the Uchiha clan dare to be so rude!" ”

The daimyo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Arguing with Uchiha Shisui, he loses face if he wins, and he is even more embarrassed if he loses, plus he is already used to being high, and he is even more unsuitable for this kind of-for-tat verbal confrontation, and Jilu stepping forward is a relief opportunity for the Daimyo.

"The powerful and virtuous Thousand Hands Clan has been lost in the First Ninja World War!"

Uchiha Shisui continued to retort: "And the shogunate established by the Uchiha clan who are only subordinate to the power will be the master of the entire ninja world!" ”

When the daimyo heard this, he couldn't help but gasp.

This is also the first time that the Uchiha have shouted their goals in public in front of the living rulers!

And behind this goal, coupled with such an unscrupulous attitude......

The thought of the possibility of the end of the inheritance and the overthrow of the clan made the daimyo tremble.

And the miserable fate of the big country clans such as the country of wind and the country of water after the loss of the country made him even more concerned.

"And in this cruel and desperate world, who only talk and do not do practical things, and cause the war in the ninja world to never subside, aren't they the self-proclaimed noble and virtuous people in the palace!"

The Uchiha's voice grew louder and louder, even to the point of roaring: "Ask all the honorable adults, what have you brought to this world!" ”

"Then according to your reasoning, as long as you have enough power, even destroying the Uchiha clan is still righteous?"

Jilu's face turned pale, but he still argued strongly: "If it continues to evolve so unscrupulously for a long time, the destruction of the Uchiha clan must be doomed!" ”

As for what positive and negative effects the daimyo nobles brought to the ninja world, he didn't bother to defend it.

Because even the monks of the Temple of Fire know that the so-called rule and management of most nobles is not as effective as tying a pig's pestle in his place - at least the pig can't mess around with anything other than eating and sleeping!

"In the words of Lord Tokumitsu, we Uchiha ninjas never debate scriptures, and only use kunai and ninjutsu to make others bow down and obey!"

Uchiha Shisui continued to say proudly, "So, please also ask the head of the Genji family to listen to the will of our lord!" ”

"In the name of the Great General of the Fire Country, the existing head of the Genji clan of the Daoless Sect secretly condemned the ninja for peeping at Konoha in an attempt to divide the ninja clan's goodwill, this move is definitely not a peaceful and friendly act, and it should be treated as a hostile provocation!"

"Rannian in the ancestors of the Genji together with the ancestors of the village of the Thousand Hands Pillar, Uchiha Madara and other ancestors to end the troubled times, taking into account the lineage of the Genji family, the special leniency is as follows-"

The Uchiha paused, and everyone in the hall looked even more nervous.

"Konoha Ninja Village will break away from the watch alliance with the head of the Genji family from now on!"

"The territory under the jurisdiction of the shogunate will be separated from the clan relationship of the Genji family from now on!"

"The name of the Land of Fire will remain, but it will no longer be the private authority of the Genji family!"

"The area ruled by the Genji family is limited to the five prefectures of and the three eastern prefectures of the old fire country, and each will defend its own territory in the future!"

"If a noble samurai from other counties voluntarily breaks away from the relationship between the Genji clan and the vassal, they must not be stopped!"

"The movement of business and trade personnel on both sides is free and must not be hindered!"

"Genji's ninja army belongs to the head of his family, but if the shogunate needs it, he should do his best to send his army to war!"

The Uchiha Shisui recited the seven conditions, then folded the manuscript, wrapped the paper in chakra, and shot at the Daimyo of Genji on the high platform with a secret weapon.

Jilu's figure flashed, and he caught the manuscript wrapped in Chakra, and then dispersed it with a single blow, and then respectfully delivered the manuscript to the Daimyo.

Genji's daimyo had a bloodless face, just staring at the thin paper.

"That's it, if you don't ...... convinced"

Uchiha said with a light smile: "Just send troops to war!" ”

After that, he ignored the people in the hall and walked away.

The original murderous daimyo's direct ninjas were no longer as fierce as before, and they all looked a little listless, and those nobles and nobles were like quails who didn't dare to speak.

“…… The name of the Great Lord is well deserved! ”

After a long time, the Daimyo of Genji couldn't help but "giggle" and laughed: "By the way, shouldn't we thank Uchiha Tokumitsu for his great kindness?" ”

Neither the minister nor the ninja dared to answer, and the atmosphere in the hall became even more solemn.

Daimyo Genji was really disappointed.

The ninja army, which he had spent countless money and materials to save, did not even have the least support and courage on such an occasion, with such loyalty and courage, if he really went to war, it was estimated that he would be captured and sent to the shogunate to receive the reward as soon as possible.

"From now on...... If the Shogun's Excellency is dissatisfied, or if he finds a random excuse to come to the crusade, there will be no more suspicion of chaos......"

The Daimyo of Genji continued to sneer: "Even Shangluo's face kung fu doesn't need to be disguised, how trouble-free!" ”

"Di Luqing, don't say that the Uchiha clan doesn't understand etiquette in the future, in my opinion, he knows more than my ministers and nobles!"

One by one, the ministers knelt down and bowed their heads to apologize.

"In that case, then I can only accept the general's unfinished kindness!"

The daimyo's voice gradually became sharp and poignant: "Yes! Ladies and gentlemen! ”

At this time, the direct ninjas also knelt down one after another.

"Since the country will not be a country in the future, there is no need to be listed as a minister!"

"From now on, all the three ministers will be dismissed! All fields are back to the state! In addition to floating wealth and mountains and forests, you are not allowed to annex land! ”

The Daimyo of Genji also struck while the iron was hot: "If there is any disobedience, they will be beheaded!" ”

The nobles had long been in turmoil, and they were even more powerless to intercede with the Genji Daimyo in a state of rage, so they had no choice but to kowtow to express their attitude.

The Daimyo of Genji only agreed by the ministers by default, and then turned to the direct ninja and said: "There is no fire in the Daimyo of the country today, if you have other ideas, you can leave by yourself within three days, I will not interfere!" ”

"Serving Your Highness is the meaning of our existence!"

One of the shinobi raised his head and said resolutely.

"Serve Your Highness!"

The direct ninjas shouted in response.

"Then in the future, the kings and ministers will help each other and face difficulties together, and if the authority of the Fire Nation is revived one day, you must be the ones who share the territory with Genji!"

The daimyo drew the cake road with satisfaction.

Although this kind of rambling promise to the nobles would only be regarded as a fart by the Daimyo, in the eyes of the relatively simple ninjas, it was the Daimyo who truly regarded them as his own!

And it is only natural for ninjas to serve their lords to the death!

So the ninjas burst into tears, and their gratitude was overflowing!

After the Daimyo of Genji was numb for a long time, he sent away the passionate Shinobi and the princes and nobles who were like soup chickens.

“…… Call! ”

There were only two people left in the hall, the Daimyo of Genji and Jilu, but at this time, the Daimyo of Genji was too lazy to maintain the prestige of the so-called Daimyo, but directly collapsed on the high platform.

"His Royal Highness is in a hurry, and it must not be difficult for him to revive the Genji lineage of the Fire Country one day!"

Di Lu spoke out to comfort.

In the dead silence after the Uchiha Shisui announced the shogunate's decision, the performance of the Daimyo of Genji was nothing short of spectacular.

First of all, he took the opportunity to depose all the high-ranking nobles, so that not only did he return the fief to the Genji family, but also saved a huge amount of wealth to maintain the existence of these insects.

There is no way, the daimyo family has no surplus food, because most of the country was taken over by the shogunate, the tax revenue released into the daimyo mansion is either zero or pitiful, with the previous tax and financial resources to maintain the current ninja army has already emptied the treasury, and even needs to transfer funds from the inner treasury from time to time to supplement military spending; And now that the territory under actual control is completely confined to, and the income in the future has dropped sharply, the money and food saved by the dismissal of the ministers and nobles can just make up for the gap in maintaining the ninja army.

As for the words of the Daimyo of Genji to the ninjas directly under him, it stabilized the hearts of the ninja army, inspired their remaining loyalty, and stabilized the only force in the hands of the Daimyo of Genji for a short time.

And after stabilizing the ninja army, even if the nobles who were removed from their posts and seized the land had different intentions, they couldn't turn the storm around.

"The commander of the ninja army must be re-selected, and the ...... of the upper ninja at all levels must be adjusted"

Di Lu said.

“…… It seems that the only one who will not abandon is the monk of the Fire Temple! ”

Daimyo Genji said with emotion.

"The Temple of Fire and Genji are two sides of the same coin, and they share weal and woe, which is also the right reason!"

Di Lu said modestly.

"It's a pity that the nobles have been raised for so many years, and only a bunch of waste has been raised!"

Daimyo Genji cursed hatefully.

"What does Di Luqing think of Hattori Heiji?"

"He's not the best option, but he's the only one right now!"

Di Lu replied affirmatively: "Now the only one who can control the ninja army is Ping Jiqing!" ”

"Then it's decided!"

The Daimyo of Genji no longer hesitated, flipped out the pen and ink of paper, and wrote the letter of appointment himself.

It's just that he hesitated for a long time on the payment at the end of the letter of appointment.

"It's been ...... so far"

The Daimyo of Genji laughed at himself and wrote a new title at the end of the payment -

"Awarded by the Great Lord of the Genji Clan!" (End of chapter)
