Gou in the ninja world

Chapter 297
The city of fire, the imperial city.

It was still the same empty room, with only one table in the hall of hundreds of square meters, empty, and the different architectural style showed a deep desolation.

At this time, the table was full of people, but if you took a closer look, you would find that the number of people was one less than last time.

"Takeuchi is dead."

The person sitting on the main seat spoke, pointing out the topic this time.

"what happened?"

A person next to him immediately asked, "Although Takeuchi is not the strongest among them, he is not considered weak, especially when he went out this time, he brought a few shadow fighters with him. With such combat power, he could directly flatten several big countries in the past." , how could he die so happily?
"Is it really dead?"

The other person also spoke, the emotions in the words were a bit complicated, it seemed to be a kind of fear, but also mixed with a feeling of expectation.

"It should be really dead."

The person in the main seat spoke again, adding an accent on the word "really".

Suddenly there was a sound of inhalation, and the expressions of the participants were different. It seemed that everyone had a different reaction to the news.

"In that case, should it be Yukimura Uchiha? I never thought that he could still exert such a strong power."

Finally, after a long silence, someone spoke again, speaking in a slightly dry tone.

You know, when Takeuchi left, he was full of confidence, and it could even be said that he was traveling and relaxing, just like the rich young master going out with his dog legs, without any worries at all.

At their level, they are already very clear about their own level. General attacks are useless to them, and there are not many moves in this world that can hurt or even kill them.

Not to mention, this time it was a real kill.

"Hmph, I have already reminded you before, that guy..."

Someone snorted coldly, with a little disdain.

"Did you care?"

Someone murmured in a low voice.

"However, at least he has made some contributions. We can now confirm that the guy's ability is at least at the same level as ours. If he has such strength, he should be able to do that."

"There is no doubt that we need his strength."

The person sitting on the main seat said very positively.

"Also, there is one more thing to note. The rats in the sewer have already made contact with him."

"Is there any evidence?"

A person sitting on the left frowned.

"Well, three of the shadow warriors sent out this time also died. I recalled the remaining three, and learned some news from them."

"So that's the case, no wonder Takeuchi died."

Several people nodded and said, according to their understanding of Yukimura, it is not impossible for him to kill Takeuchi and the three Kagemura alone, but the probability is pitifully small, but it is not necessarily so if other people join. Although the strength of the rebel army is much worse than that of the empire, it would be hard to say if they were caught off guard by a sudden attack.

"However, we still have to get this power."

The person sitting on the main seat said that if it was just an inference based on what happened in the past, after this change, they are almost [-]% sure that they can judge that Yukimura's power will have a certain impact on their plan. Great help, so definitely get your hands on it.

He looked at the strong man sitting second to his right.

"ok, I get it."

Meeting his gaze, the strong man nodded, stood up and said.

"Let me go this time."

"be careful."

The person next to him warned.

"Don't be like Takeuchi, Da Tan."

"Don't worry."

The big man named Da Tan clenched his fists, and there was a crackling sound in his palms.

"I'm different from that coward in Takeuchi, I'm a big tank representing pure power."

…………

At the same time, in the city of Izumo.

"Your master, the Eighth Hokage?"

Yukimura and Uchiha Yao walked on the road, talking while walking, the leader of the rebel army is actually Hokage, this is a news that Yukimura did not expect.

"The leader of the rebel army is Hokage?"

"Yes."

"The founder of the empire is also Hokage?"

"Yes."

Uchiha Yao kept nodding.

"Although it is unbelievable, it is true."

Uchiha Yao replied, he knew that this fact might be a bit outlandish, but it was indeed true.

"It looks like a lot has happened in the past 200 years."

Yukimura nodded slowly and said, although Uchiha Yao didn't say it directly, but from his tone, Yukimura could also perceive some special relationship between the empire and the rebels, which also made him more curious. The history of the army is also about the mysterious leader.

"What kind of person is he?"

"A great leader."

Uchiha Yao replied without hesitation.

"Master is the greatest and most important person in the Rebel Army. The reason why the Rebel Army can survive until today is all because of Master. He established this city with the help of his ancestors. Everything here is his own. Arranged, he built it all from scratch to bring us a peaceful and peaceful environment."

"But you just don't want to tell me who he is."

Yukimura said helplessly. Ever since he knew that the leader of the rebel army was Hokage, his curiosity had never subsided. Uzumaki Naruto, the last Hokage who established the empire, and the first leader of the rebel army to fight against the empire Eight generations of Hokage, there are so many secrets in it that anyone can imagine.

However, no matter how he inquired, Uchiha Yao always kept silent about the identity of that person.

"This is the master's order."

Uchiha Yao was also very helpless about this, and everything he did was just following the instructions of his master.

"Well, now I am really looking forward to meeting your master."

Yukimura shook his head, feeling a little speechless about the leader's bad taste.

But there was nothing he could do. In the end, Yukimura could only let out a long sigh and continue walking forward.

The two are now on their way to the administrative center of Izumo City, the so-called Santo's Mansion. According to Uchiha Yao's introduction, Izumo City is a city with an area of ​​about 40 square kilometers. It is considered large, with a resident population of about [-], and most of the strength of the entire resistance army is concentrated here.

The city lord is the supreme leader of the entire rebel army and the most powerful person. Although the various administrative departments in Izumo City are managed by families and officials attached to the rebel army, the military department is completely independent. It was the city lord who caught it, and the entire city was under military control. Anyone who came in and out had to be approved by the city lord. Uchiha Yao and the others went to the Uchiwa clan before they could start with the permission of the city lord.

That is to say, to a certain extent, this castellan is Yukimura's savior.

And now, they are on their way to meet the savior. There are only two people, Yukimura and Uchiha Yao. He is also the only one who is allowed to meet the city lord. The others are still recuperating in the hospital ward.

The City Lord's Mansion is not too far from the hospital, so Yukimura and the others chose to start on foot, and they can also learn more about the city.

I didn’t notice it when I was in the hospital just now. After walking out, Yukimura realized that this city of Izumo does not seem to be a city built on the ground. Although his eyesight has declined a lot now, he can still see. I realized that the sky above this city does not have the same blue sky and sun as on the ground, and there are no clouds that can be seen everywhere. Although there is light in this city, this light is not so much the sun's rays, but more like a special luminous body The light that comes out.

"Is the city of Izumo built underground?"

Yukimura looked at the white sky above his head and asked.

No matter from any aspect, this city is different from normal cities. He can feel a very strange kind of chakra faintly flowing on the ground, and the top of the buildings in the city also have this kind of chakra. Traces, this kind of thing doesn't look like an enchantment, nor does it look like a sensory network, it's a very strange thing that can't be said.

"You can say that."

Uchiha Yao replied that he knew that Yukimura couldn't hide the particularity of Izumo Castle.

"You also know that we have always been a thorn in the side of the empire, and the empire controls more than 90.00% of the land in the ninja world. It is very difficult to establish a stable settlement on the ground, so we can only Live in places they don't have full control over."

He slowly explained that Yukimura's judgment was correct. Izumo City is indeed a city built underground. Only such a closed environment can effectively prevent the empire's surveillance. Similarly, only in this kind of place can the To be able to build a place of this magnitude.

However, Uchiha Yao said that he can only tell Yukimura so much about the situation of Izumo Castle at present, and more specific things will have to wait until Yukimura has met the city lord and is officially recognized by the other party.

Although a little disappointed, Yukimura also expressed his understanding of this. He did not expect that others would tell his secrets one by one when he reported his name. Only people with no brains would do that. Naturally, it won't be that lax.

Anyway, I'm going to meet that mysterious city lord soon, and everything will be revealed by then.

The two said so, and they had already walked to the center of Izumo City, a large pure white building about three stories high.

The city lord's mansion is here.

"Master Yukimura, I can only take you here. Master, he should still be busy now. We may have to wait for a while."

Uchiha Yao took Yukimura into the mansion and entered a place that looked like a reception room. This is the limit he can enter. The rules in Izumo City are very strict. Although he is the disciple of the city lord, if If you act recklessly without permission, you will still be punished lightly.

"Okay, I know."

The two sat down on the sofa, and soon a servant brought tea, and then quickly retreated.

Only then did he have the opportunity to slowly observe the place. The entire reception room is not too big, with an area of ​​about 20 square meters. There is a coffee table and a pure white sofa in the middle, and a bookshelf is placed on the other side. There are some books and scrolls with unclear names.

Of course, these are very normal decorations and furnishings, nothing special, except for a pair of words hanging on the front wall that attracted Yukimura's attention.

It was a big "Ninja" character, and it could be hung here so cautiously, which shows that this word has extraordinary meaning to the owner. I've seen similar things in the room, if this is the one in Sarutobi Hiruzen's room, is the identity of the Eighth Hokage really related to Konoha Village?

He secretly thought in his heart that he had already had similar thoughts before. After all, the title of Hokage came from Konoha, and it is normal logic for people who can become Hokage to be related to Konoha.

The two waited for a while, and in the corridor outside, there was a burst of clear and crisp footsteps.

coming.

Yukimura's heart skipped a beat, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he turned to look at the door.

Finally, it's time to meet the leader of the rebel army, the Eighth Hokage.

The sound of footsteps became more and more obvious, and the echoes became louder and louder, and stopped at the door, and then, the door was gently opened from the outside, followed by a slightly hoarse voice, Yukimura felt It seemed to be a slightly heard voice.

"Long time no see, Yukimura Uchiha."

The person outside the door said so, with an inexplicable chuckle, a figure appeared from the door, the leader of the rebel army, the Eighth Hokage, finally appeared in front of Yukimura in its entirety.

"It's you!"

The moment he saw the face of the visitor, Yukimura suddenly widened his eyes and couldn't help crying out.
