The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

Chapter 259 End
This night, it seems that many things are destined to happen.

At this time, in the Daming Mansion of the Land of Fire, the Huo Daming had finally reached the last moment of his life.

It seems that because of the agreement reached with the ninja, when the daimyo unloaded all the burdens, his body also deteriorated visibly to the naked eye.

Ever since he and Prince Zongquan returned to Fire City that night, Daming couldn't get sick that night.

Although the doctors of Daming Mansion have tried their best to rescue him, to this day, Daming is still on his deathbed.

"My lord..."

In the bedroom of the Daming Mansion, the Daming was already completely thin and out of shape.

At the bedside, apart from a doctor, there were only two elders, Long Guang and Prince Zongquan.

As for the high-ranking nobles in the capital of fire, they all stayed outside their bedrooms.

This is also the tradition of the Daming Mansion. The death of the old daimyo and the ascension of the new daimyo need to be completed under the watchful eyes of the great nobles.

At this time, Daming Huo still had something to say to the elder and the prince alone, so he temporarily invited the nobles out.

When Daming Huo finally died, he still wanted to invite those nobles in.

"Mr. Dobb, tell me the truth, how is my father's health?"

At this time, Zongquan seemed to be somewhat unable to accept his father's critical illness.

Even though he had expected it in his heart, he still couldn't help pulling the doctor's arm and asking sharply.

The old doctor looked at the stern-spoken prince, hesitation and fear could not help but appear in his eyes.

"Zong Quan... don't worry about Mr. Bo..."

Old age and a sensual life have completely emptied Hidaming's body, and at this moment he even speaks very softly.

If Zong Quan hadn't been paying attention to him all the time, I'm afraid it would have been difficult to notice that Daming suddenly spoke up.

Looking at his father who was like a candle in the wind, the anger in Zongquan's eyes dissipated little by little, and finally only depression remained.

"You go down too..."

The daimyo said softly again.

This sentence was said to the old doctor, and Dao Bo immediately exited the daimyo's bedroom and left in a hurry after hearing the words, as if he had received an amnesty.

"Father……"

With Dao Bo's departure, Zong Quan was also forced to accept the reality. He knelt down in front of the bed, held Daming's hand in one hand, and murmured.

"Zongquan, the family... I will leave it to you, don't... remember, no matter when, don't make enemies with the ninja..."

Daming held his breath, said the last sentence to his son, and then looked at Da Lao Long Guang.

He didn't have the energy to speak anymore, but from his eyes, Long Guang already understood what he wanted to say to his lord who had been loyal to him for half his life.

"..."

Long Guang stood up without saying a word, walked to the bedroom door, and opened it.

Seeing this, the great nobles waiting outside the door rushed in immediately.

"My lord..."

The moment the nobles entered the bedroom, the master who had ruled the Kingdom of Fire for decades finally finished his life and left the world surrounded by the nobles.

When Long Guang turned around again, all he saw was the old and peaceful face of his lord...

……

For the funeral of a daimyo, professional etiquette officials from the daimyo prefecture will be in charge.

The prince...or the new daimyo Zongquan really couldn't stand the false condolences of those nobles, so he dragged the old man out of the bedroom together.

"My lord."

Long Guang bowed to Zong Quan.

His attitude was very upright, and he didn't mean to rely on the old to sell the old, or to maintain his identity.

"Old man."

Zongquan's face was uncertain under the dancing candlelight.

"Please send someone to inform the Shimada, Senju, and Uchiha clans overnight, and invite the three chiefs to come to my father's funeral."

Zongquan's so-called "notice" was naturally not to ask the Daming Mansion to send people to the residence of the three clans.

It is to inform the power of the three clans to stay in the capital of fire.

The ninjas all have their own methods of communication, and the efficiency of communication between ninjas is much higher than that of the Daming Mansion Baba sending people to notify.

The elder has also been in high position and authority for many years. Although he still couldn't hide the grief in his heart, he still took a deep breath in the face of Zongquan's order, barely regained his previous shrewdness, bowed and said, "Understood, my lord."

The old man then staggered towards the outside of the Daming mansion.

But Zong Quan looked at the elder's back, couldn't help sighing, and then returned to the daimyo's bedroom with a wry smile.

He still has to deal with that group of difficult nobles...

……

Overnight, the news of the death of the Fire Nation daimyo spread rapidly around the Fire City.

The three leading ninja clans of the Land of Fire were the first to get the news.

But at this time, Hanzo and Madara were not in the clan except Hashirama who was indeed staying in the clan.

Coincidentally, both clans began to send news to their patriarchs.

"What? Daming Huo is dead?"

In the capital of Sichuan, a hotel.

Hanzo, who just woke up from his sleep, received news from his family.

It was a trained Ninja Hawk who came to summon.

Although Ninja has a certain amount of wisdom, it is impossible to answer Hanzo's question, so he can only blink his eagle eyes.

Fortunately, Hanzo didn't expect it to say anything, he was just a little shocked.

"Daiming Huo passed away?"

Terumi Kaoru next to him couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard Hanzo's words.

"Yes."

Hanzo handed the letter paper in his hand to Terumi Kaoru, and said, "The Great Elder told me that people from the Daming Mansion invited me to attend the Daimyo's funeral... just two days later."

As he said that, he looked at Xun who was beside him apologetically, and said, "Sorry, Xun, it seems that our vacation will end early, and I have to go back to the family to deal with some affairs."

Terumi Kaoru didn't care too much, instead she smiled and comforted Hanzo: "It's okay, it's already good that we can come out for a few days this time, the family still needs you."

"Ah."

Hanzo immediately held his wife's hand tightly.

After the two went to the hotel owner to settle the bill, they hurriedly prepared to return to the family.

……

"Quack quack..."

At the same time, in a small town in the south of the Land of Fire, Madara, who was resting in a teahouse, had just received a message from the family's Ninja.

After reading the news, Madara burned the note casually, and couldn't help frowning.

To be honest, he didn't want to go back to the family at this time.

Sighed.

The situation cannot be controlled, since the Daming Mansion has invited him, it must have invited Hanzo and Hashirama, and it would be inappropriate for him not to go.

"Forget it..."

According to his experience in the past few days, the older the shrine, the more likely it is to leave something useful.

Madara recalled the few remaining shrines, none of which were too old, and it didn't matter if he wanted to come or go.

Thinking about this clearly, Madara no longer hesitated, drank the tea in front of him, and strode out of the teahouse...
