Chapter 312: Just like this(1/2)
Chapter 317 Just like this
The next day, when the sun first rose, Tang Country was still quiet.
The entire country was like a dead city that had been baptized by war overnight. There were few pedestrians on the criss-crossing streets, and the atmosphere of fireworks was restrained to the extreme.
Last night, the whole city was listening to the shrill roar, releasing endless fear.
Last night, the entire Daming Mansion was brightly lit, and the leader of Tangzhi Kingdom, who was over fifty years old, stayed up all night. He sat solemnly under the exclusive guard and waited until dawn.
He is different from those gangsters who hang out underground. He can see farther and deeper.
Whose ninja would be so bored that he would clean up the entire country's gray industries out of temporary dissatisfaction?
There must be a bigger purpose in doing this.
The wandering warrior named Tieshan just happened to provide him with a seemingly reasonable excuse.
Moreover, he had already deduced the true identity of the young man based on the little information he had collected.
The Konoha forehead protector, the evil Sharingan, superb sword skills, and the age that symbolizes infinite possibilities...
This guy who almost pushed the entire country aside must be the one:
The current leader of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Ara.
The reason why he sat down and waited until dawn was because he had a premonition that the other party would find him sooner or later.
He even had some speculations about the possible purpose of being found.
only,
Would that guy really do something so horrific?
Not afraid of Konoha's retribution...
'Tap tap tap.'
Accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, the thoughts that the Lord of Tang Kingdom had speculated in the sea of consciousness suddenly collapsed. He instantly raised his head and saw that the person who came in was not someone else, but his own captain of the bodyguard.
"Lord Nishitani, the East District has been stabilized. Those who were able to escape in that area have all fled to the sea. As for those who couldn't escape..."
At this point, the visitor's voice suddenly stopped, as if he had thought of something unbelievably terrifying.
"Those who failed to escape may suffer from broken bones or death."
The captain of the guard slowly continued to add.
This is the second time he has seen such a miserable scene. As for the first time, it was in Tangyin Village, which was already in a state of escapism.
Of course, the scene that time was even more bloody and difficult to watch!
"What about him?"
Nishitani Hiroaki didn't pay too much attention to the plight of those local gangsters, but asked him eagerly.
"After that, the perpetrator made no movement and showed no sign of continuing to come to Daming Mansion."
The captain of the guard immediately understood and reported back in detail.
'Why.'
However, Nishitani Hiroaki did not feel any relief after hearing this news. Instead, there was definitely an invisible pressure that severely overshadowed his heart.
'What do you want to do?'
He said to himself,
The old eyes with traces of time revealed deep confusion and inexplicable fear.
"Nishiya-sama, do you need us to send someone to negotiate, or directly inform people in Konoha?"
"No."
"unnecessary!"
After hearing the advice, the leader of the Kingdom of Tang refused very decisively.
When they still don't know the real purpose of why that person did such an act, standing still is the most correct choice for them, the weak side.
Yes, Nishitani Hiroaki had a firm intuition in his heart, that is, even if he used all the force available in the entire Tang Country to deal with the perpetrator, there would be no good results.
He clearly understood this when the Kahn forces entrenched in the North District were easily overthrown, and even he himself died tragically at the stronghold.
Otherwise, there is no need for me to be so cowardly and allow the entire country to gradually fall into a chaotic situation of "three disregards".
"Just let him do whatever he wants. Unless the other party takes the initiative to contact you, don't get involved in anything."
Nishitani Hiroaki added again.
Such a decision is exactly the same as the one he made a year ago when he came into contact with the forces behind Kahn.
After all, the decline of Tangyin Village and its retreat from the world directly brought the entire country's combat power to a freezing point that could no longer be reduced. It was unable to control the overall situation. Being able to stick to the Western District and maintain the superficial identity of the monarch is already very good.
What's more, what that man did is not harmful to Tang Zhiguo from the current point of view.
On the contrary, the residents of the entire country can breathe a sigh of relief.
only,
Just in the future......
Thinking of this, Nishitani Hiroaki couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
In the future, after that person leaves, the entire country may suffer even more crazy plunder and destruction.
Don't talk about false titles like "forgetting the war" by then, even this last Western District will probably fall.
Of course, hiring ninjas to clean up regularly is also a method.
However, the price was too high, and being caught between Konoha and Kumogakure, they had to be careful not to favor one over the other, otherwise it would be regarded as an obscure siding.
This is the helplessness of the small country after losing its inherent ninja village.
"Yes, I understand."
The captain of the guard immediately responded, and he felt an inexplicable sense of relief in his heart.
Because whether you negotiate with that person directly or report such a private incident to Konoha, it may arouse the other party's dissatisfaction or even hostility.
If it were some other famous Konoha ninjas, they would choose the latter option.
But,
That one is from Uchiha!!
A family that cannot reason!
Although I don't know where this inherent conclusion came from, it should not be much different after seeing the other party's crazy behavior last night.
However, when he raised his head and noticed that the king he served had a sad look on his face, he felt a real sense of guilt in his heart.
As the chief guard of a dignified kingdom, he could not worry about his own family. He could only watch those ruffians, the foreign ninjas wreaking havoc, and the property belonging to the kingdom and the people being exploited bit by bit.
They moved bit by bit, but they didn’t even have the courage to lose their temper!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Such an official position, such a position, is really shameful and shameful.
The atmosphere in the entire hall also became silent and depressing under such a general environment.
At this moment, another rush of footsteps came from outside the hall, and everyone in the hall broke away from the disturbing sound, woke up from their own thoughts, and looked in the direction of the source of the sound.
I saw that the person who came was a young man, wearing a standard guard uniform with a samurai sword at his waist.
"Your Majesty, the ninja from Konoha is distributing the wealth obtained in the east, south and north areas."
Not caring about his panting condition after running back, he knelt half-kneeling on the ground and reported the current situation respectfully and somewhat excitedly.
After all, the money distributed to the civilians was plundered from the hands of the ruffians entrenched in Yuno Country!!
That was a group of evil forces that even they had no choice but to allow to grow rapidly!
Upon hearing this, everyone present, whether they were ordinary guards, officials, or daimyo sitting on the throne, all had expressions of astonishment on their faces.
【Could it be,】
【Does that guy really want it? 】
Nishitani Hiroaki's expression was gloomy and uncertain.
Because only by sitting in this position can he see more things clearly.
If you want to obtain a country, you never need to win the consent of the person in charge of that country. The Kahn power entrenched in the North District is the best proof.
What is really needed is the support of the people.
Therefore, local ruffians can always only be a group of rabble who cannot stand on the stage. They only put their own interests first. Such behavior cannot shake their status in any way.
But what that person did before was contrary to that gang of people, and he actually directly divided the property of nearly half of the country. How much courage does this require?
You can get a glimpse of it from the messenger guard with a happy face and excited voice!
Even they felt excited, excited, and agreed with such behavior, not to mention the ordinary residents who were exploited and levied protection fees on weekdays?
"Kings?"
To be continued...
