Shadow Stream of Leaf

After Hanyu returned from the Shikone Forest, he first went to meet the Third Hokage, and after being told a few words by the other party, he was rushed to the Daimyo Castle... The change of daimyo is indeed a very important matter.

Especially now that the external environment is very harsh, the Third Hokage definitely does not want political turmoil within the Fire Country. The state's support for Ninja Village must not change because of the change of the name.

As a good ninja who is enthusiastic about his work and has been serving Konoha, Hanyu didn't even settle in the village, he took Tsunade directly to Daimyo Castle. And only half a day later, the two were already in another important center of the Fire Kingdom outside Konoha.

After arriving at Daimyo Castle, Hanyu did not immediately go to meet the "new daimyo" who was about to succeed him. He went to a mansion very close to Miyagi, where he first met the Konoha faction who came to be in charge. Some of the twelve ninjas who guard the daimyo.

That is, several of the so-called "Twelve Scholars".

These people are Konoha's elite ninjas, and they often rotate, who knows how many generations it is now.

However, Hanyu still found an acquaintance in it.

"Xingping, why did you sneak in too, make up the numbers?"

Sarutobi Xinghei, the eldest son of the third Hokage, was actually among the Twelve Warriors at this time. In terms of age, he should be only sixteen years old now, and in terms of personality, he must not be because of "running away from home". This bullshit reason came here.

This will definitely only be dispatched from the Third Hokage.

Sarutobi Xinghei was not embarrassed by Hanyu's words, he just smiled - because in terms of combat power, at this age, he is indeed suspected of making up the numbers.

"Master Hanyu, I came to Daimyo Castle to serve as the guard of the daimyo. The symbolic meaning itself is greater than the actual meaning."

Naruto's role as the guard of the daimyo is definitely a manifestation of the closeness and friendship between the military and the government. Frankly speaking, this "symbolic meaning" is not worthless, but really meaningful.

From a legal point of view, Ninja Village is originally a thug of the daimyo, so it is natural for the son of Hokage to serve the daimyo. However, as long as the daimyo has a little brains, he will not really use the son of Hokage as a thug... The former daimyo Still quite smart.

This belongs to giving face to each other, hello, me, everyone is really a good thing.

"What about the cause of Nikubo Daimyo's death, I heard there is something hidden in it?" Immediately afterwards, Hanyu got back to business.

"It can't be said that there are other secrets. The former daimyo did die of natural causes, but..." Sarutobi Yukihira swung his head from side to side, and after finding no one cared, he leaned into Hanyu's ear and whispered something. What.

Xingping is a relatively upright person, so he doesn't want to make too much publicity about the daimyo's disrepute.

Then it dawned on Hanyu, no wonder there were some secrets about Daimyo's death.

The thing is like this, just the night before yesterday, the sixty-year-old Nikubo Daimyo died beside three sixteen-year-old maids... He died very happily.

Of course, "beside" is Sarutobi Kohei's description, which is a bit vague, so Hanyu imagined it and felt that a more accurate description should be "on the belly".

"What a heartbreaking... how to die. I have always been a good friend of the former daimyo, but unfortunately I may not even see his remains now." The murderous look corrected his language expression.

"What about the three maids?"

This is not peeping into any secrets, but... from the way the three maids are treated, one can somewhat judge what kind of person the son of the daimyo is.

"It was sealed, and then exiled from Miyagi." Sarutobi Kohei said, "Sealing" must be no problem, if it is sealed in a ninja way, three ordinary people will definitely be able to keep certain secrets.

"That's not bad." Hanyu felt that letting the three of them go should be the best way to deal with it.

The death of the daimyo probably wouldn't be their responsibility, but if the daimyo's son decides to execute these three people, it is actually the correct way, and even that is the most correct way, but that kind of way may not feel good to Hanyu's senses. Very good.

Generally speaking, most of the time Hanyu is willing to treat people as human beings.

Since the previous daimyo had passed away, there would be no problem with the next succession ceremony of the daimyo's son.

"Let's go, please inform me. I'm going to meet the 'Xin Daimyo'... I think the other party should also be willing to see me."

Hanyu asked the Twelve Soldiers to notify the daimyo of his arrival according to the formal procedure, and sure enough, within half an hour, Hanyu was summoned.

"Master Hanyu, Mrs. Hanyu, I'm sorry, because I was busy with my father's funeral, I was a little late, and I couldn't welcome you all at the first time."

After the other party saw Hanyu stepping up the steps of Miyagi, he quickly greeted him, and his mouth was full of modest words... As expected of Nikubo Daimyo's son, although his words were slightly deliberate and flattering, they were just Modesty is much better than arrogance.

"Genxian Daimyo, I can understand the sorrow that Daimyo's death has brought to you. In fact, when I heard the news, I couldn't believe it for a while... But please take care of your health. It's all about you."

Hanyu naturally knew the name of the new daimyo, and it was not that he had never met him before, but at that time he was blocked by the former daimyo.

On the other hand, Tsunade resisted the urge to curl her lips. It was precisely because she knew Hanyu very well that she felt that the more serious he was, the more hypocritical he seemed.

However, this is just her prejudice, Hanyu's words have sent enough signals to the new daimyo... Konoha definitely supports the new daimyo.

Nikubo's son was named Genxian, and of course he was not overjoyed at this time. For such a big man, there is still something for the city, but he felt a little grateful when he looked at Hanyu.

What his father said was right, Mr. Hanyu was indeed a very good help.

At this time, if Hanyu was ten years older than the other party, he could even reach out and pat Daimyo on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement, but it's a pity that the age difference between the two is not that big.

"Well, when my father was alive, he often told me that Master Hanyu was a rare friend..."

The daimyo welcomed Hanyu and Tsunade into the main hall of Miyagi and took their seats. Besides the daimyo, there were also some nobles to accompany them. Afterwards, everyone exchanged pleasantries. Regrettably... In short, after talking nonsense for a while, Hanyu got up again, took his leave and left.

Before the daimyo's succession ceremony, he would stay in daimyo city, but he definitely couldn't let the new daimyo accompany him all the time, after all, he must be busy with business at this time.

It's enough to convey the meaning, and Hanyu just represents some kind of signal - as long as the daimyo succeeds to the throne, there must be nothing wrong with Ninja Village.

Afterwards, Hanyu and Tsunade returned to the courtyard.

"Hanyu, how do you feel about this new daimyo?"

"It's pretty good. I personally think it's pretty good. The other party's attention has been on me, without squinting... I think Daimyo is definitely better than Zirai."

Hanyu's reason for judging others as "very good" seems a bit strange.

But... After all, Tsunade is easy to attract the attention of others, and even Hanyu, he can't shout and kill just because others look at Tsunade for a few more times, he is too old.

Mostly... well, nothing.

"I'm asking something serious, why are you still talking about me?"

"I'm also answering seriously. You don't even think about how the former daimyo died. What if his son also has this problem... But a daimyo's identity probably doesn't lack beauties around him."

"Well, there are many beautiful maids in Miyagi, and there are quite a few who are better than me."

"That makes sense." Hanyu nodded in agreement.

"..."

It has to be said that some people do live on dogs.

"Hey, why are you walking faster and faster?"

…………

The next morning, Tsunade disappeared.

"Hanyu-sama... Hey, where is Tsunade-sama? I'm not with you."

Sarutobi Yukihei, who got up early and wandered around, asked after seeing Hanyu who was staring at the sunrise in the yard.

"Inseparable" has become "alone", so there is this question.

"Probably somewhere in this town, and my wallet disappeared with her...Damn it, do those places open so early?"

Xingping walked over, glanced at Hanyu's neck, and just saw a small blush from "mosquito bites", then he ignored Hanyu's complaints, and said with a smile, "The relationship between Master Hanyu and Master Tsunade is really very good. good."

Although Hanyu lost the mission gold, he was not losing money.

So without further ado, he patted Sarutobi Xinghei on the back of the head, "You are young, what do you know?"

It should be said that this was just a very ordinary morning, but when the two were chatting, a ninja suddenly came to them and said quickly:

"Master Hanyu, Master Kohei, urgent information...

Kirigakure's Jonin Kutachi Yagura assassinated the third generation of Mizukage Onito Riman. "
