In the history of the five major countries, more than one female name has appeared. It is worth noting that most of them are from political and religious backgrounds, not from martial arts families, and their main responsibility is to pass on the bloodline of the daimyo.

But this one is a little different.

The young man who was responsible for welcoming the most important guests ordered by his superiors had this thought flashing through his mind when the curtain of the remarkable carriage was raised.

Seeing this, the calm girl with black bottoms and long sleeves turned her face, her eyes were deep and serene, as if she could see through his entire being.

"Please, please...the distinguished guest alights from the carriage."

Under the penetrating gaze of the visitor, the young man said unsteadily. The slave who was bending next to him immediately bent down and knelt beside the carriage frame. The bones in his back lifted up his clothes, and his whole body was tense.

——They were all frightened. The vague indifference had turned into fear and fear. They were only worried that this person who was a ninja would directly stab them.

"..."

The girl who was obviously the person in charge glanced at the situation, and her sharp and raised eyebrows furrowed without trace. The next second, her figure flashed, her steps stepped out of thin air, and landed on the ground with a "click".

In order to better utilize chakra when on the road, ninjas will basically choose shoes that expose part of their feet. For nobles who abide by ancient etiquette, this is a sign of their inherent vulgarity.

At this time, Xiao Xing, who lowered his head, saw a pair of shoes embroidered with silver patterns. She did not put on the "Tang Yi" that was stretched behind her. Therefore, the fabric at the bottom rolled on the shoes, and the rippling mountains and sea waves, as well as the soaring giant birds and whales, were more submissive to the feeling of clothing than clogs.

Madara smiled slightly from behind. According to Jijun's standards for fire core at that time, this kimono should also have at least eight layers of outer fabric to overlap to create a "color" that would satisfy upper-class women.

But why would Jinyeon choose inconvenient clothes?

So he directly left a large number of decorations and jewelry on the innermost basic clothes - everything he sent allowed her to make a choice.

In the end, this outfit was indeed her choice.

"The Fire Nation Ninja Alliance, Uchiha Mabuchi greets you."

I stretched out my hand and handed over the invitation, and said in a calm tone, "I should follow Jian Zhenggong to appreciate the gold and the color of autumn."

Xiao Xing trembled all over. He had followed the master's instructions to determine the identity of this distinguished guest from the very beginning. And what she just said was undoubtedly not among the options.

He couldn't answer, and he couldn't answer because of the ninja's aura.

"I'm sorry, but the servant in the house has not been trained." The ninja who flew over suddenly lowered his head and grabbed the young man. He covered half of his face and remained calm in the sight of the two of them. "It is really unintentional to offend our distinguished guests."

"Then can Mr. Jianzheng allow us to enter?"

Nara Shikana was the only one here who could talk to the ninja. He looked at the ninja who was supposed to be his companion with a smile, and put his fan on his palm, "The Ninja Alliance came with sincerity, and so does our alliance leader, Lord Mabuchi. Come with sincerity.”

What you said is just a short apology?

"Please." The ninja's attitude did not change in this confrontation. He lightly jumped back into the yard. Madara and I both present subconsciously judged the level:

Two magatama to three magatama.

"There are about fifty guards." Madara's Sharingan flashed, and he said with a hint of pleasure, "It can probably warm me up."

Still the same Brother Ban.

I shook my head and stepped into the other courtyard in the second ninja action that followed. The formations spread throughout the building flashed by, but in an instant, the brain unraveled its structure and pattern:

That old fox, Changshu Jianzheng, is still a bit unwilling to give up.

What is the banquet of the nobles like?

If someone asks this question, people who have been in China for a long time will probably raise their eyes in boredom, "It's just a group of people pretending to set standards in their own small areas. Once someone breaks this default standard, they will not join forces to suppress it." If it goes down, the fish will die and the net will fall apart.”

A game for the weak.

The situation along the way is consistent with the above expression. Even though they had heard that the person in charge of the "Ninja Alliance" who had an interest in countless people was a young Uchiha woman who appeared in the finale, they poured out the wine in their cups and were dumbfounded when they really faced the facts:

"Her, they..."

They were like beings that had intruded from the outside world. They painted a thick black line on this golden and brilliant autumn picture with strong and clear colors. Whether it’s the leader’s high and sharp eyes, the young man’s solemn and wanton expression, or the middle-aged man’s faintly oppressive movements, they all express one word:

Fearless.

"The world is unfortunate, the world is unfortunate!"

An official murmured, the jade bracelet in his hand clattering on the wine glass. At this time, the official court still retained the ancient customs, and the etiquette required to be quiet and beautiful. When the noisy knocking sounded, everyone's eyes turned.

The outright contempt and disgust made him blush, and he raised his sleeves and said loudly, "Oh, ninja... can ninjas also be on this stage?!"

That's right, the place dedicated to eating, drinking and talking is a platform one foot above the ground, with several steps thoughtfully built, and blooming chrysanthemums placed below.

However, no one was admiring the flowers. That was during the stage of chanting Japanese songs, and now it was a communication before the banquet.

"Um"

The girl walking at the front asked. It seemed that her age and gender gave the officials the confidence, and her continued words became frank and manic, "This is ridiculous! Everyone! Look at this shameless pariah!

What kind of confusion did Mr. Kanemasa lead when he invited you? Could it be that he was offering the entire clan to you? You are the Uchiha fan who is setting fire to the fire."

"If you like to light a fire, just go back to the countryside and light a stove!"

The Uchiha family crest is the red and white Uchiha fan. The family crest represents the most important inheritance of a family. When attending a banquet where one needs to reveal one's identity, one's clothing must have it.

And this official's words are equivalent to depriving the "Uchiha" who participated in the banquet of their identity, spitting on them, and then stepping on them and crushing them...

court death.

Before the other two people could react, Nara Shikana's eyes flashed, and he slowly pressed the handle of the knife he carried on his waist: People of high status should not take action, as it can easily escalate the situation.

His action is enough to represent his attitude.

"Who is he"

I don't have much anger, and I believe Madara won't have any big reaction in front of the proud clown. We are not here to make friends. The only things worth paying attention to at this banquet are the benefits and results.

"Well, a minor official who doesn't often appear in intelligence."

Madara looked at his sister with a smile in his eyes, moved his fingers slightly, and a wisp of fire flew out with a warmth that ordinary people could not feel, "Why did your adults invite him? We thought that this banquet still has some thresholds."

"—"

"I'm sorry, I'll give it away now."

He was still the skilled ninja. He picked up the official's collar and jumped in the other direction. Before the official's expression changed from anger to astonishment, he saw a tiny white light flickering where he had been, igniting a silent flame in the blink of an eye, and then turned into a small pile of powder.

……

"Still not reaching the perfect combination of temperature and speed."

I raised my chin slightly, held the cypress fan and knocked it, "Otherwise, nothing will be left."

Madara wanted to touch the head of the person in front of him at this moment. But after seeing the braided black hair and the bright lespede hairpin, he slowly took it back and said in a low voice, "I won't do it next time."

next time

What next time

The samurai who was more sensitive to power gasped. The noble's face turned pale and he almost ran away from his seat further away from these people:

Judging from the owner's reaction, it is obvious that Changshu Kanezheng is facing them!

According to the news, this is the leader of all ninja alliances in the Land of Fire. There is no shortage of strength and reserves behind him. Who can guarantee that his family will not use them in the future!

The most important thing is that they know how to use their discretion without making any fatal moves, which means they understand the people attending the meeting!

The consequences became more and more terrifying as he thought about it. The official rolled his eyes and fainted from the shock.

"Oops, what interesting thing happened to make everyone leave their seats?"

The latecomer walked out of the ninja guards with a smile on his face, waving his fan and blinking his eyes, "I am late due to personal reasons. Please forgive me."

"Forgive me..."

"..."

In the unobstructed space, Nagashu Kanemasa and I looked directly at each other. The older powerful minister raised his eyebrows, a smile on his lips, but his eyes narrowed on the contrary.

No one knew what he was thinking at this time. Not long after, I heard the clatter of wooden clogs. I spread out my fan to cover my face, and let out a wild laugh that I couldn't hide: "Hahaha, hahahahahaha!"

The laughter was also mixed with an indistinguishable whisper, with a hint of murderous intent, "Ninja, ninja!"

hum-

There was music in the back of the courtyard, and the elder's momentum was released without any scruples at this time, without any regard for the horror of the participants.

The samurai noticed that he smelled of the battlefield, and they accidentally remembered that when he was young, he also mounted a horse to fight against the border country's general. The nobles were in a trance, recalling the past when big and small forces were suppressed in the capital. At that time, blood flowed through the place of execution, and he was still laughing. Officials can't help but be submissive. How can they face a generation of powerful ministers? There is no way, no way under the name.

Only a few people could stand there calmly. They looked at him as if they were looking at a condensed symbol. The rest of the people looked at them as if they were watching a rising enlightenment:

The balance of power in this capital is likely to change drastically.

"Hey! I haven't laughed so wildly for a long time." Changshu Jianzheng wiped away the tears from laughter and said in a relaxed mood, "I am always busy with endless things and endless work. After all, I am an old man who has been confused for so many years. I can see the beautiful scenery on the earth.”

If only he had had these people in his youth. What a magnificent and exciting scene that must be!

"Leader Uchiha Mabuchi." The person who got the situation from the ninja and also knew the opponent's choice said, "Please take a seat."

This sentence brought about a change in the atmosphere, and the banquet continued lively as if nothing happened. The quality of the people present was good except for a few, and they quickly adjusted their mentality and figured out each other's respective positions.

After one round of roll call, two rounds of charity, three rounds of singing and dancing, four rounds of practice exercises, and five rounds of flower appreciation, the sixth round finally started with the banquet, and plates of high-quality dishes were served.

"Ah, recently there have been more exchanges between the capital and others."

Sitting at the main seat, Nagasuke Kanemasa began to comment on the dishes with gusto, "Isn't red meat popular in the Land of Thunder? My cook combined it with white meat to make a two-color meat soup."

"Some of the spices from the Kingdom of Earth have a charming fragrance. Calculating the price, they should be able to replace half a year's income of ordinary people."

"The snakes and insects in the Kingdom of Wind are a little difficult to be tasted, but we eat wild vegetables and river snails. I don't mind it. Do you want to try it?"

Recent trajectories and future trends are spelled out. I looked up from the table closest to him, and saw the old man lifting a spoon of soup gracefully, seemingly without any special intention:

"A solid wish."

"Yeah, young people are just polite. Even if these people are enjoying their meal now, they will all be vomiting when they go back. The palace has prescribed standard dishes. If they want to update, it will have to be delayed for at least a few years."

The lower level could not reach Shangting, and the daimyo's response would be delayed for a long time. I picked up a cup of the two-color meat soup called for, and I have to say that it tasted pretty good.

"Let me think about it, Uchiha, Uchiha and Senju." Nagasuke Kanemasa continued to chat, thoughtfully, "The two families were mortal enemies in the past because of resources, missions, and traditions——"

As soon as the words changed, he said, "It's a little strange, why can't it be applied to ninjas when interests come first?"

In the past, ninjas fought life and death. Why did this change happen to you? Will ninjas in other countries do the same?

"Maybe there is a villain." I said lightly, "Isn't that the same for that one?"

For example, Toshiie Hayashikawa was controlled by me. In the past era, there should have been many people controlled by that existence.

"Um……"

Nagasuke Kanemasa nodded and did not dwell on the words, "Well, my waist has always been bad recently. When the daimyo holds a meeting, he has to hold two chakra scrolls to support it."

"Senju's healing skills are really good. I would like to meet a wealthy family like yours when I have time."

The war in Quanciao Stream should be over. If it continues any longer, I will be angry.

"clatter,"

Putting down the exquisite porcelain cup, I smiled and said, "Soon, in the name of the alliance, we will offer our sincerity to the daimyo."

Only when the alliance's documents and announcements are confirmed can the Quan Crow Stream be ended, and this is non-negotiable.

"..."

The older man's heavy gaze glanced over with such weight, and he tapped the bowl with his chopsticks. No one raised any objection at this time, but the laughter among each other became even louder:

"After fifty years of life, looking at the world, things are like a dream."

"How can something that is alive once be immortal forever?"

"Uchiha Mabuchi, stop it."

The person who finished reading the poem said this. I smiled and looked directly at him, "In what capacity do you advise the collaborators and enemies of this sentence?"

still……"

Lips slightly parted, teeth clenched: hypocrite protecting [Daimyo]

……

"It's not a good thing to expose your ambition too early," Nagasuke Kanemasa said.

"I'm a stickler for constant facts," I said.

"Don't worry, I'll just lift the table."

"You like the new world."

Uh-huh, "We don't have any weight there."

"Ah, who can guarantee that I will be the one who can secure a position there?"

"...You are so bold."

"If you don't dare, can I sit here?"

……

"Okay." Nagasuke Kanemasa shook his head, "It's different from before. Will people become more careless?"

"That's because I caught something new. We must leave something new to future generations." I said, "To put it bluntly, I have prepared the West for you. Are you interested in boarding this ship?"

"You'll know what's going on in the Kingdom of Wind when you see it." He rolled his eyes in a very unflattering manner, and some self-indulgent old man said angrily, "If I had the ability, I wouldn't say it now. I only give you five years. If there is no exit in five years, don’t blame me for taking action.”

five years...

What will the world be like in five years' time? No matter how talkative Nagasuki Kanemasa seems now, he is essentially a person who does not relax until he achieves his goals. He involves each other and suppresses each other...

Just look at five years.

"make a deal."

"You--you've almost eaten."

The person who had achieved his goal felt his stomach and was in the mood to talk about something other than the transaction, "Your brother is responsible for the rest of the people invited here. You are not brothers and sisters. You are so trusting."

Looking at Madara who was in contact with the target person, I drank a glass of wine and said calmly, "They are my family, very important people."

"Although he has a tough attitude and is not very bright in his head, he is a good man." Nagasuke Kanemasa commented, "With the cooperation of that Nara, there is a 70% certainty that the Ohiroma morning meeting in the future will be possible. Although it is not 100% sure. Make you satisfied..."

"No, I'm satisfied." I interrupted him.

The long beam of eyes suddenly became subtle. He looked at Madara, who was mingling with the military attache, and at Nara Shikana, who was exchanging interest posts with the nobles and giving scrolls to the officials. He put his fan against his chin and hissed, "Indeed, it looks good. You are born to be high--" —”

As soon as the words changed, he tentatively said, "Under the operation of the position above Sichuan North, it may be faster to achieve the goal, no..."

"The Hayashikawa Toshi family already has a wife, a son and a daughter." I raised a smile, "Besides, if it can be achieved in the name of Uchiha Mabuchi, why use Genji?"

"This is the only way I can see your bottom line." Nagasuke Kanemasa said, "I hope you won't end up here. The end justifies the means is a neutral word. As long as the result is good, no one in the world cares about your process."

No, it's still a little different.

I remembered what Zeng and Izuna had said about the gorgeous feather coat. I also think of the miracle made of human brains in the Earth Kingdom laboratory.

It is true that [Uchiha Mabuchi] can give a lot of things for her goals, but there are some things that can never be opened, which are the foundation of her.

"If you fall down..."

I slowly opened my eyes, "That's the sadness of the whole world - I don't know what I will do."

"——" Changshu Kanezhao opened his mouth and bit his fan. He thought that he should have let go of the background of the person in front of him for a moment. This made his heart palpitate far more than the confrontation on the battlefield.

Ah...what kind of world can see the "sadness" she talks about?
