Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 316 Cherry Blossoms Crossing the Sea
As soon as the news of Guan Shaoqing's journey north to Japan to visit the land of cherry blossoms was released.

The world was shocked.

But no one has forgotten.

Two years ago, when Guan Shaoqing declared that he would enter the capital to take the head of Prince Su, the regent of the Manchu Qing dynasty, he actually managed to break through the entire Manchu Qing dynasty and take Prince Su's life in the capital by his own strength.

Now, a similar thing is happening again.

Guan Shaoqing actually wants to travel north to the Sakura Kingdom to demand something from them. What will Guan Shaoqing do this time?

Could it be that they intend to take the life of the head of this small group directly?

Can the land of cherry blossoms withstand Guan Shaoqing?

Upon learning of the news from the Republic of Seichu, the entire nation of Sakura was instantly shaken.

The people and many officials of the Sakura Kingdom were filled with shock and anger, feeling that they had been insulted and provoked like never before.

It is important to know that since the Meiji Restoration, Japan's national strength has grown stronger day by day, and today it has become one of the world's leading military powers.

As a result, many people in Japan today have an unprecedented level of self-confidence and arrogance.

Now, however, someone dares to attack his Great Sakura Empire's homeland alone.

How can the people of Japan accept this?

In an instant, the entire nation of Sakura was filled with excitement, with everyone shouting that they must teach Guan Shaoqing a lesson, and some radicals even clamored to send troops to attack Singapore.

But the top brass of Japan.

The leader of the Sakura Kingdom was somewhat flustered at this moment.

After all, the higher-ups always know the most information.

While lower-ranking officials and ordinary citizens in the Sakura Kingdom might not be aware of Guan Shaoqing's power and terror, how could he, as the highest-ranking official in the Sakura Kingdom, not be unaware?

In the upper echelons of Japan, Guan Shaoqing's threat has already risen to the highest level. His almost invincible personal strength is the nightmare of any country's top leadership. Once an assassination attempt is launched, who dares to say they can remain unscathed, not even these heads of state?

As you can see, Prince Su was killed by Guan Shaoqing, who single-handedly stormed into the heart of the Manchu territory of Beijing.

The leader of the Sakura Kingdom does not want to become the second Prince Su.

"Gentlemen, tell me, how should this matter be resolved?"

The leader of the Sakura Kingdom then summoned a group of high-ranking officials and asked them questions.

“Kill him. If Guan Shaoqing dares to come, just kill him. Do you think the mighty Great Sakura Empire is afraid of Guan Shaoqing? No matter how powerful he is, do you think he can fight against the entire Great Sakura Empire by himself?”

"The majesty of my great Sakura Empire cannot be challenged. I propose that Guan Shaoqing's image be copied and distributed immediately, and he be shot on sight as soon as he is discovered."

"Guan Shaoqing is a cultivator, a member of the Chinese cultivation community, so let's call on the people of our country's cultivation community to deal with him."

"."

Upon hearing this, the high-ranking officials of the Sakura Kingdom, who had been summoned by the leader of the Sakura Kingdom, all spoke up, their attitudes extremely firm.

After all, the whole country is in a state of high spirits because of Guan Shaoqing's matter. If they take a hard line at this opportune time, they might be torn apart by the people. Although they are somewhat wary of Guan Shaoqing's strength, if Guan Shaoqing really wants to carry out an assassination, his first target should definitely be the highest-ranking leader, not them.

Therefore, all the high-ranking officials of the Sakura Kingdom were extremely tough at this moment. In any case, if Guan Shaoqing wanted to assassinate someone, the tallest leader would be there to protect him. On the contrary, if they gave in before the battle even started, they would definitely be condemned by the whole country and might even become the sacrifice to quell public anger.

Under such circumstances.

The top brass of the country naturally know how to choose a cherry blossom variety.

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Sakura Kingdom was almost furious, because deep down he actually wanted to back down. He knew that if Guan Shaoqing really came to assassinate him, he would definitely be the first target, but he didn't want to become the second Prince Su.

So the Japanese leader originally wanted to discuss whether they could negotiate directly with Guan Shaoqing. But he didn't expect his officials to be so assertive.

This left the leader of the Japanese nation with no choice but to remain indignant.

"In that case, let us proceed according to your wishes."

"Hi!"

The high-ranking officials of the Sakura Kingdom immediately accepted the order and withdrew.

After the high-ranking officials of the Sakura Kingdom received their orders and withdrew,

"Is the Imperial Advisor confident in dealing with that young marshal from Guangdong?"

The leader of the Sakura Kingdom spoke again.

As the leader of the Sakura Kingdom finished speaking, an elderly man dressed in a golden Onmyoji robe slowly emerged from the darkness behind the Emperor of the Sakura Kingdom.

"Judging from the battle record displayed by that young marshal of Guangdong, his strength should at least have reached the peak of the Grandmaster of Martial Arts. However, in terms of cultivation and strength, I may not be able to defeat him. But with the Yata Mirror in hand, I am already in an invincible position. Even if I cannot defeat him, I can still remain undefeated and will definitely be able to protect Your Majesty's safety."

The old man spoke slowly.

He was none other than Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the elusive and mysterious national advisor of the Sakura Kingdom.

There are two people who are recognized as the strongest in the country of Sakura today. One is the Sakura National Teacher Toyotomi Hideaki, and the other is the contemporary Sakura Sword Saint Yagyu Osamu.

In addition, the Imperial Advisor Toyotomi Hideyoshi possessed the Yata no Kagami, one of the three sacred treasures of the Sakura Kingdom.

"I wonder if we could ask the Sword Saint to join us? If the Sword Saint and the Imperial Preceptor were to work together, I believe we could ensure that Guan Shaoqing would never return."

Upon hearing this, Toyotomi Hideyoshi shook his head and said:

"He won't join forces with me, but if Guan Shaoqing really attacks, he will definitely take action. At that time, Your Majesty might as well order someone to send the Kusanagi Sword to the Sword Saint. I believe that with the divine sword in hand, the Sword Saint will be able to help Your Majesty kill the invading enemy."

The Kingdom of Sakura possesses three sacred treasures: the Kusanagi Sword, the Yata Mirror, and the Yasakani no Magatama. The Kusanagi Sword is in the Imperial Treasury of Sakura, the Yata Mirror is on Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and the Yasakani no Magatama is worn by the Emperor.

"I understand."

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Sakura Kingdom nodded, and his previously flustered heart gradually calmed down.

at the same time.

With the departure of those high-ranking officials from the Sakura Kingdom and the issuance of their orders, Guan Shaoqing's identity information and photographs spread rapidly throughout the country, and major newspapers in the Sakura Kingdom immediately published Guan Shaoqing's photo on their front pages.

This was also the first time that photos of Guan Shaoqing's appearance were widely circulated.

However, as photos of Guan Shaoqing spread widely, a strange phenomenon soon emerged in Japan: the initial excitement surrounding Guan Shaoqing among Japanese women gradually subsided, and some women even began to secretly collect photos of him.

This discovery almost drove Japanese men crazy.

What does it mean to say that appearance is everything?

This is.

And that's when.

Sakura country.

Nagasaki.

A figure riding the wind slowly emerged from the clouds above Nagasaki; it was none other than Guan Shaoqing.
