The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

Just when Hanzo returned to his residence and arranged for intelligence personnel to bring the information revealed by the daimyo back to the clan, Motohisa opened the door and walked in.

"The Terumi clan sent a message saying they want to see you." Motojiu said.

"feed……"

Hanzo let out a helpless breath: "I'm just here to make a splash. They come to me one by one."

"What is soy sauce?"

Motojiu probably understood what Hanzo meant, but he was still confused.

"Don't worry about these details." Hanzo waved his hand, "Where's Terumiei? Take me to see him."

Motojiu didn't dwell too much on Hanzo's strange words and nodded: "Follow me."

Immediately, Yuanjiu took Hanzo out of Daming Mansion and came to a teahouse in the Water Capital.

The teahouse is very secluded. Terumi Rong booked a private room here. Seeing Hanzo and Motohisa pushing the door in, Terumi Rong hurriedly greeted them and said: "Hanzo-dono is here. This tea shop is small in the city of water."

It’s famous, you can try it.”

Hanzo couldn't help but roll his eyes.

As far as he knew, Terumi Rong had never been to the Water City a few times. How did he know if this tea shop was famous?

I’m afraid it’s not recommended by Meituan?

No matter what, the four people from both parties also sat down together.

To be honest, Terumi Rong was a little embarrassed at this time.

The Terumi clan had previously intended to join the alliance, but they actually had the idea of ​​​​cutting off with the Shimada clan.

The Shimada clan didn't do anything to retaliate, but instead helped the Terumi clan to connect in the middle, which was considered as giving them enough face.

If they successfully established a connection with the alliance, then that's it.

But now, instead of successfully joining the alliance, they have to pray for help from the Shimada clan.

Even the most thick-skinned people can't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Of course, the above is just Meirong’s own thoughts.

If Hanzo knew what Terumiei thought like this, he would definitely not be able to help laughing.

The Shimada clan is not a philanthropist.

If there really was no back-up plan, how could the Terumi clan be allowed to betray themselves without taking any revenge?

From the beginning, the Shimada clan was certain that the alliance would not bring much benefit to the Terumi clan.

The Terumi clan is a fan of the authorities and believes that their strength will give them preferential treatment from the alliance.

Little did they know that the Alliance had now passed a period of urgent need for military support.

They have now stepped into the stage of sharing the results of their victory.

Facing the Terumi clan who volunteered at this time, their more instinctive instinct was to protect their own interests and results.

If the Minazuki clan hadn't retained some sense, the Terumi clan probably wouldn't have been able to get even this seemingly harsh condition.

Of course, these are the internal judgments of the Shimada clan, and it is impossible for Hanzo to tell Terumiei.

I saw Hanzo take a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I wonder what the matter is that the Terumiei clan leader is here in a hurry to see me?"

Hearing Hanzo's question, no matter how hot Terumi Rong felt, he could only bite the bullet and said: "Your Excellency Hanzo is already seventeen years old. This time, I mainly want to confirm the marriage between the two clans with you."

Terumiei opened his mouth to talk about marriage, which was beyond Hanzo's expectation, but then he said in a funny tone: "Clan Chief Terumiong, you have found the wrong person. Maybe it would be more appropriate for you to talk to my father about this kind of matter."

Bar."

Terumi Rong seemed to be willing to go all out, waving his hand and saying: "It doesn't matter, just confirm it. In addition, I heard that the nobles are about to return to the Country of Fire to develop?"

Hanzo nodded. This matter was about to become an open secret in the Kingdom of Water, so he was not prepared to defend himself.

"That's right, Lord Hanzo is also aware of the current situation in the Kingdom of Water. The defeat of the Oniden clan has been determined, and the ninja world of the Kingdom of Water will soon be ruled by an alliance led by the Minazuki clan.

We, the Terumi clan, also intend to join this alliance."

As he spoke, Terumi paused and looked at Hanzo, hoping that Hanzo could take the initiative to say something.

However, Hanzo just lowered his head slightly and sipped the tea without any reaction.

What a joke. Originally, the initiative was in the hands of the Shimada clan. How could Hanzo want Hanzo to propose cooperation first and hand over the initiative?

Hanzo sneered inwardly.

Seeing that Hanzo didn't even say a word, Terumiei could only secretly think that it was a pity, and continued: "The nobles were originally from the ninja clan of the Fire Country, and it is normal for them to return now. It's just a pity that the power that the nobles have developed in the Water Country over the years has given up like this.

The Terumi clan intends to cooperate with the Shimada clan. As long as the Shimada clan supports our clan to gain a proper status in the alliance, our clan is willing to help the nobles preserve their interests in the Kingdom of Water, and at the same time ensure that the Kingdom of Water will not become the Shimada clan in the future.

enemies."

Hanzo couldn't help but feel moved.

Although Teru Miei's negotiation skills were a little poor, his overall outlook was excellent, which was somewhat beyond Hanzo's expectations.

He almost completely guessed the purpose of the Shimada clan's layout in the past two years, and even saw what happened after the Kingdom of Water and the Kingdom of Fire were unified.

This made Hanzo have a high opinion of his future father-in-law.

Since the other party's words were taken to this level, Hanzo would naturally no longer have a dumb relationship with Terumiei.

Hanzo muttered: "I don't know what the nobles' so-called appropriate status is. To be honest, our clan can indeed exert a certain influence on the alliance, but if the nobles ask for too much, we also need to evaluate the value of it.

not worth it."

Hanzo's words were very straightforward, but Terumiei didn't have any dissatisfaction. Instead, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.

As long as the Shimada clan is willing to make conditions.

He was afraid that Hanzo would play Tai Chi with him in a roundabout way, but he was unwilling to make any conditions, which meant that the Shimada clan was not willing to talk to the Terumi clan at all.

Terumi Rong continued: "My clan's requirements are not high, as long as we can achieve the same status as the Ganshi and Kaguya clans."

Hanzo smiled when he heard this: "It's easy to make it easy as Patriarch Terumiei said. Although those two clans are not strong, they are also the founding ninja clan of the alliance. They have also paid a lot for the current situation of the alliance. The nobles want to achieve the same status as these two clans.

, how can it be so easy?”

But this time, Terumiei had no intention of backing down: "Your Majesty Hanzo, this is not easy, but our clan will have to defend the interests of the nobility when the Shimada clan is no longer in the Water Kingdom, which is also not easy.

"

For a moment, the small private room was filled with the sound of the two people arguing.

Suddenly, Motohisa who was beside Hanzo interjected: "I don't know what to do. As long as the nobles agree to assume more combat obligations in the alliance, I, the Shimada clan, will be your lobbyist."

Hearing Motohisa suddenly interrupt, Terumiei first reflexively looked at Hanzo.

Although Hanzo didn't quite understand the purpose of Motojiu's words, out of his trust in Motojiu, he did not refute, but nodded slightly, acquiescing to Motojiu's statement.

Upon hearing this, Terumiong also looked at the elder beside him. After the two discussed for a while, Terumiong stretched out his hand to Hanzo and said, "Just do what the noble said."

Hanzo also held Terumiei's hand and said, "It's a pleasure to cooperate."
