Uchiha's Counterattack

After a while the guard came out.

"You two, come in with me. The daimyo wants to meet you."

This time, the guard's attitude was a little better. Perhaps because the daimyo wanted to receive him in person, the guard put his tail away and did not dare to be so arrogant. At the same time, his face was no longer cold, and he also wore a

He smiled hypocritically and looked at the two of them with a smile.

This person's expression quickly changed, revealing that he is an extremely realistic villain.

But it's often easier to get in touch with such a real villain, so Iemon doesn't have any objections.

"Then please lead the way."

Eemon could tell that Kuroizumi was in a bad mood, so he quickly stepped forward and spoke.

At the same time, he lamented in his heart, Mr. Heiquan is still too young to adapt to this kind of situation. No wonder Mr. Xia Nan sent himself to follow him. It seems that Mr. Xia Nan has also calculated his face in this political arena. Mr. Heiquan is

It's hard to deal with.

But in this case, why did you send Kuroizumi-sama? It is strange for such a young girl to appear in a diplomatic situation, especially in such a serious scene. It would be better for Mikoto-sama or Zaemon to come, but

Lord Xia Nan sent Lord Heiquan.

Maybe there is some secret in this? But that has nothing to do with Youemon. After all, if Natsu Nan deliberately concealed it, Youemon would not be ignorant to ask.

After all, Lord Natsu Nan has always been partial to Lord Izumi. This is the consensus of Uchiha, Youemon thought with a meaningless shrug.

Under the leadership of the guards, the two entered Daming Mansion smoothly.

As soon as I entered, I found that Daming Mansion was not so much a mansion as it felt like a city within a city. Hidden behind the seemingly old gate were exquisite tower buildings. The numerous buildings were gorgeous and exquisite.

The arch bridge crosses the artificial river bank, and under the eaves paved with red tiles, nobles are walking back and forth.

These nobles were dressed gorgeously, and the women's faces were painted in white with dark eyebrows. Fortunately, their teeth were not blackened, otherwise it would have been too scary.

Under the towering rock wall were groups of samurai patrolling back and forth. When passing by an artificial lake, Eemon and Kuroizumi saw a group of guys wearing black robes.

Eemon and Kuroizumi immediately noticed that these black-robed men seemed to be ninjas. Although they were well hidden, any hiding was meaningless in front of the Sharingan.

Under the introduction of the guard, the two learned that these men in black robes seemed to have appeared recently. Their origins were mysterious. No one knew why they appeared here. They only knew that they would occasionally come out and walk around like now, and then disappear again.

For a few days, there was an inexplicable group of guys, the guard said.

After passing through the heavily guarded "noble district" and passing through several bustling streets, the three of them finally arrived in front of a gorgeous and huge palace.

After the guards and the guards responsible for guarding the palace handed over the documents, they turned around and left.

According to his status, he could not continue. After all, he was not a high-ranking samurai, but just the son of an ordinary lower-level samurai. The limit of his life was to guard the entrance to the Daming Mansion.

Full of envy and jealousy, the guard left in despair.

Iemon looked at the frustrated backs of the guards who left, and shook his head slightly.

"The hierarchy is very strict."

Under the leadership of the new guards, Eemon and Kuroizumi entered the main hall inside the castle, and headed all the way from the ground floor to the main hall.

Along the way, the guards changed at least twice. Finally, under the leadership of a fully armed noble warrior, the two finally arrived at the main palace pavilion and met the contemporary daimyo.

"Uchihaemon/Kuroizumi of Konoha Village, on behalf of the Fifth Hokage of Konoha and all the residents of the village, I would like to pay my respects to His Excellency the Daimyo."

Eemon and Kuroizumi half-knelt on the ground and saluted the daimyo sitting in the main seat.

The Daimyo of the Fire Country of this generation is a thin man with a strange appearance. He always likes to cover his face with a fan. His narrow eyes carefully look at the two people kneeling in front of him, and his eyes glance back and forth.

Afterwards, he finally closed the fan in his hand with a "pop!"

"Didn't that Uchiha Natsunan come in person?"

The daimyo asked in a lukewarm voice.

"I'm very sorry. The village has just gone through a series of battles recently, and the internal and external troubles have not been resolved. Lord Godaime must always be in the village to deter foreign enemies and prevent other villages from taking advantage of the situation. However, I and Lord Kuroizumi are both members of the village.

The backbone and representatives of our company came here under the sole authority of the Fifth Generation Lord, so there is no need to worry.”

Eemon answered quickly.

"Hmph~"

With a snap, the daimyo opened the folding fan again to cover half of his face, and an inexplicable light shone out of his narrow eyes.

Standing in the main hall were a large number of nobles and military commanders. The one on the left was the civil servant group. This time they proposed to give the new Hokage generous rewards and take the opportunity to win over them. The most important thing was to prevent Konoha from losing control of the new wood.

Ye's friendly faction.

The key to the fact that the Fumiomi Group belongs to the friendly faction is that they don't care what the old Konoha has become, but they urgently need the stability of the new Konoha to scare other big countries and ninja villages, and prevent another big power from happening again after the war in the ninja world has just ended.

If an unprovoked fight breaks out, it will give the militant factions a huge political leeway.

The chief representative of Fumiomi Group is a middle-aged man named Takagi Shinichiro. He has a white beard, a pair of narrow eyes, and a meaningful and humble smile at the corner of his mouth. He is the father-in-law of a contemporary daimyo, also known as

Her daughter Yuriko Takagi is a well-known strong woman, and many of the policies of contemporary daimyo came from her.

Some people describe this man as a hundred times more cunning than a fox, while others say that Takagi Shinichiro is an ambitious politician. But it is undeniable that the Takagi clan occupies half of the top management in the Land of Fire.

"Hahaha, in this case, there is nothing we can do. After all, it is important to meet His Highness the Daimyo, but if the village is attacked on the way here, it is doubtful whether Konoha can still exist. If Konoha Village disappears

If so, the closely interdependent Fire Nation may also be attacked by other countries."

Shinichiro Takagi narrowed his eyes and calmly made an impression on Iemon.

Sure enough, after Takagi Shinichiro spoke, the daimyo's face, which was originally a little unhappy, suddenly became much softer.

"Yes, Konoha Village is indeed very important. If that's the case, then I forgive you the Godaime for not being able to come in person, but it's just this one time and it won't be the same next time."

"Thank you, Lord Daimyo!"

Youemon quickly replied, and by the way, Takagi Shinichiro next to him cast a look of thanks. Only then did Youemon realize how rude he had been just now, he had completely ignored the Daimyo's feelings and said it directly, then

His attitude clearly showed that he did not take the daimyo seriously and was only looking after the village and the Hokage, so the ill feeling of attracting the daimyo was almost certain.

But thanks to Shinichiro Takagi's seemingly casual words of help, Konohagakure or Uchiha Natsunan avoided an unnecessary turmoil. It can be said that the turmoil had just started and had not spread out, but it was

Takagi Shinichiro pressed it quietly.

Of course, Takagi Shinichiro also has his own personal goals. He just said that the civil service group he represents is a faction friendly to Konoha, so naturally there will be unfriendly factions, and they must be enough to threaten the man Takagi Shinichiro.

The forces that make them all fear the Three Points need to win over Konoha's hearts and minds to fight against them.
