Yoshigege, who traveled with Gusugi Bosui and visited half of the Fire Country, was taken away by his father and ancestor, and he probably needs to be taught a lesson.
It's really not that Gu Shan Bu Shui, the eldest cousin, didn't cover it up. With so many eyeliners up and down, his performance these days had already been secretly reported to the public.
"That unlucky boy is still holding on, trying to fool him, and he doesn't even think about it. With so many people watching the direct lineage of the Fire Country, his attempt to hide it will probably not succeed."
Kosugi Masaki curled his lips. His concern for his little nephew was real, and he was also troubled by his occasionally ridiculous style. He used to use his youth as an excuse, but now that he is over sixteen, he is not stable at all. The signs are really alarming.
"My grandfather and father, who were so conservative and rigid to the point of being stubborn, actually cultivated such an out-of-the-box heir, is really surprising. In the past, it was okay to have the guidance and restraint of the court officials, but now if you relax a little, your true nature has emerged. .”
Gu Shan Bu Shui suppressed a smile in his heart and responded nonchalantly:
"No one thinks that I taught him bad things, right? The daimyo's body is still strong, and my uncle has not heard of any problems. If nothing happens, within ten years, it will not be Yoshigege's turn to worry about the affairs of the Fire Country."
"Don't teach Liangshige some incomprehensible things in the future. His mind is not very mature yet. It is not a good thing to be exposed to some too realistic problems too early."
"I know, I'll pay attention!"
The grandson of a daimyo who grew up in the palace is certainly smart, but in the realm of morals and values, he is very easily influenced by others.
Gu Shanbu Shui, who has experienced two lifetimes, appears to be precocious and steady, and has not distorted his character due to external stimulation. Goodness and weight are not necessarily certain.
In life, one needs to have an open mind, but if one is full of inner minds, indulges in conspiracies and intrigues, focuses on the darkness of human nature, without the restraint of conscience, and handles many affairs blindly based on profit-oriented considerations, for a daimyo heir, , is not a good thing.
Atmosphere and pattern may sound vague and meaningless, but at certain times, they are indispensable qualities.
Kosugi Masaki patted his son on the shoulder and said sincerely:
"I know you are doing it for his own good. It is too dangerous for a noble young man who is not familiar with the world to show his face outside. He is not wary at all and can easily be plotted by others. It's just..."
The medicine is given too hard and too quickly, and most people may not be able to bear it.
Fortunately, Liangshige is also a good guy. Even if I believe that my cousin Gushan Bushui has his own set of ethics, he will not be completely biased.
"Anyway, if you have any trouble, I'll stop it for you first, don't worry!"
The old father wiped his troubled son's butt, not just once or twice, but he did it very skillfully.
"By the way, I have made arrangements for the reform of the competition system you proposed and the 'big action' that is about to begin. The guards of Konoha Village are about to be in place, and the 'actors' are ready, waiting to make a splash..."
The first fifteen "King of Fighting" events have laid a very solid foundation, and their momentum is growing day by day, attracting the attention of many people.
However, the sublimation from quantitative change to qualitative change seems to require an opportunity.
It would be safe to be prepared and wait passively, but Gushan Bushui didn't want to waste too much energy on this kind of thing.
The "Junior King of Fighting" exhibition held in advance is just a small test. The first place in all age groups will finally have a ring challenge session where previous winners are invited to participate.
The annual team competitions and individual competitions bring fame to many masters, half of whom are short-lived shooting stars and then disappear. Some are recruited by the Gushan family, and a small number join various organizations.
There are not many people who are truly famous and famous throughout the ninja world. Taking advantage of this opportunity to transcend the shackles of class, Kazuma is undoubtedly the most outstanding top player and the one with the smoothest development.
As a condition for him to choose a guardian ninja candidate, Kazuma Sho will become the "champion" and have a strong showdown with this year's winner.
This was originally supposed to be like this, the "double king showdown" gimmick has been released.
Now, after returning from the Kingdom of the Sea, Gu Shanbu Shui has new ideas.
According to the current plan, it will certainly make the 16th "King of Fighting" Challenge famous, but even more so than in the past, it may not be able to truly advance to a new stage, and there is not much certainty.
The Chunin Examination a few years later, where many children of destiny gathered, was the best example.
"Generally speaking, if at the last moment of the 'King of Fighting' challenge, a foreign enemy invades and causes damage, it will definitely be a big blow to the reputation of the Gushan family. Even if the enemy is defeated in the end, the consequences will be irreparable. . However, if you change your thinking, you may have unexpected gains..."
Gushan Bushui explained with a smile,
"If this villain is so powerful that even the Leaf Village cannot contend with it, then it is natural that our Gusugi clan will not be our opponent; if the attacker is famous and average in strength, and we capture him on the spot, that would be even better."
"What's the use of doing this?"
"Topics and hot topics of discussion are the key to breaking the inherent boundaries of the 'King of Fighters' Challenge!"
After sorting out his words, Gushan Bushui replied,
"Sixteen years have passed. It's been long enough for a generation to grow up. It's time for the 'King of Fighters' to become a truly phenomenal event, instead of the five major ninja villages watching indifferently, with the real masters disdainful and only the second-rate strong. Only then are they willing to come to the 'non-mainstream' competition to gain reputation."
The ninja world does not have developed television and radio, and the Internet has no shadow. The speed of information transmission is very slow and the efficiency is extremely low. The so-called fan culture and traffic take all. No matter how far-sighted the natives are, they have never seen everyone in their dreams. A world where you can use magical powers such as "clairvoyance" and "wind ears".
Those who really guide the fashion trend are the great nobles like Gusugi, as well as influential celebrities, actors, writers, poets, etc.
The "King of Fighting" event and the winners who come out with their own celebrity status are walking cash cows, and their voices are undoubtedly louder and more convincing than ordinary people.
"I...although I don't fully understand it yet, I roughly understand what you mean!"
After thinking about it for a while, I felt more and more that using unconventional means to hype up the "King of Fighting" event seemed to have more benefits.
Fame and fortune are twins who often appear together and promote each other.
In the past, great aristocrats such as the Kosugi family were so famous that they dominated the Ninja Village. They naturally held great righteousness, but without the support of force, their status was not stable and there was a risk of being overthrown.
The most fundamental reason is that the great nobles must distance themselves from the common people, maintain a class gap, and make people fear them, in order to maintain their "righteousness" and reputation.
However, being too far away from the grassroots level makes Gushan's influence somewhat ineffective in controlling specific civil affairs.
Such a paradox was almost irreconcilable before the advent of the information age.
A platform like "King of Fighting" seems to play the role of sports competitions in previous generations. It not only allows everyone to compete on the same stage regardless of class and status, but also maintains the status based on blood and righteousness from falling.
"War in a time of peace!"
Gu Shan Bu Shui lost no time in reminding him, and the old father's eyes suddenly lit up.
"That's how the Chunin Exam is advertised as well."
Of course, the meaning of the Chuunin Exams is more of a show to demonstrate reserve strength and allow sponsors to spend money. The significance of the "King of Fighting" event is even more profound.
Roughly speaking, it can be compared to the famous derby matches in the football field in previous lives. For example, Leeds United and Manchester United fans would watch movies every now and then. It was an extension of the "War of the Roses" that fought for the right to inherit the throne hundreds of years ago. The confrontation between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid was a battle between the royal family and the aristocracy. The confrontation with the grassroots, the North-South confrontation in Serie A, and the collision between Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga are all related to the hatred between the country and the family, and the fate of the country.
If the so-called peacetime wars in the Chuunin Examination are about competing for task shares, then the "King of Fighting" challenge that has been controlled by the Kosugi family for many years can completely mobilize all walks of life and all people to participate, erasing ninjas, samurai, and martial arts. The labels of monks, onmyoji and other professions are all classified as "fighters".
When he realized that Gushan Bushui's ultimate goal was to develop the "King of Fighting" event, the old father was also stunned.
The young governor had already prepared and whispered:
"The number of ninjas in the entire world only accounts for one thousandth of the population. This includes genin and apprentices who have little fighting ability. Obviously, ninjas are not the only ones who can use chakra to exert extraordinary power. Why do they master the core power? Is it them that all kinds of secret arts are called ninjutsu, and even the whole world is called the ninja world?"
Because the Immortal of Six Paths created the "Ninja Sect" and spread it to the world, everything happened now, but...
"Why?"
Sage of Six Paths has been dead for so long that even the beings of the ninja world regard him as a fictional mythical figure that does not exist.
In today's ninja world, there is no one strong enough to name the world.
After a long silence, Gushan Zhengcheng responded seriously:
"Didn't you want to be a ninja before? Why, after being rejected, you actually wanted to learn the roots of a ninja?"
"If you can't beat me, then join. If others don't accept me and don't let me play, then everyone will stop playing!"
The advantage of ninjas is that they are eclectic and not limited to heresy. As long as it is easy to use, they can learn it and make it their own.
For example, the inheritance of the Fire Temple is not necessarily shorter than the history of ninjas. There are also various evil mystical arts, samurai who are ready to take action, etc. Because there is a lack of a professional class to compete with the ninja clan, they can only accept that they are regarded as "Second-class ninja".
If you really have a choice, will a samurai who has sharpened his character since childhood be humble in front of a ninja?
Using the "King of Fighters" event as a cover, they subtly cultivated a profession that could compete with "ninjas" - fighters, even including ninjas, and made everyone in the ninja world accept it. For sixteen years, the Furusugi family If you persist, you can get your capital back with profits.
"What are you going to do?"
Seeing that his old father finally relaxed, Gushan Bushui let go of the heavy stone in his heart.
"The original plan remains unchanged, except that the final battle will be held off the coast of the completely abandoned Uzumaki Country. When the showdown between Kazuma and this year's winner is about to decide the winner, climb out of the 'abyss' The ancient 'evil god' will be resurrected, and there will be a big brawl. The fighters present will cooperate sincerely and unite to defeat the evil god and save the world."
"It seems to be the subject of a royal biography of a hero. It is not bad for the profession of 'fighter' to appear in this way. But where do the so-called 'evil gods' come from? Don't those fighters run away when the situation is bad? Those The motley crew can be powerful in the ring, but most of them will be useless at critical moments.”
"Why don't I know this kind of thing?"
Gu Shan Bu Shui smiled mysteriously,
"There is always a way to prevent them from escaping. There is no other choice but to fight to the death. As for the key villain 'Evil God', it naturally has to be 'arranged' by our Gushan family. If we want to control the progress of the situation, of course we have to adjust all the variables Are you in control of everything?"
"I want to see your preparations. I can't just rely on your words. The daimyo and a group of nobles came to watch the ceremony. Konoha Village also sent elite soldiers and generals to protect the safety of the arena. The 'evil god' you prepared 'If it's not strong enough, I'm afraid it will just become a stepping stone for others to gain merit and experience."
"As you wish!"
Gu Shan Bu Shui agreed wholeheartedly.
With the cooperation of the Furusugi family, the event organizer, and the guidance of Otsutsuki Kaguya, the serious goddess of Uma, they pretended to be gods and ghosts, temporarily concocted a deep-sea monster, created a multi-player "copy", and created a passionate, twists and turns Bizarre big news couldn't be simpler.
"Accidents are not terrible, what is terrible are people who are bent on causing trouble."
Gu Shanbu Shui, who was smiling and thinking about how to arrange the "script" without leakage, came up with several good ideas in his mind, and even had a routine to support the "savior hero" family afterwards and publicize it.
…
Looking at the group of Konoha ninjas wearing ninja forehead protectors, including a few familiar faces, Gushan Bushui breathed a sigh of relief.
The Hyuga clan leader who adheres to the principle of doing less is worse than doing more, will not be too concerned about irrelevant things. If it were other advisors, elders, or spies sent by the "root" organization, it would be difficult to handle.
The three squad captains, Mitarai Anko, Morino Ihiki and Moonlight Hayate, are all acquaintances of Furugi Bosui.
Most of the remaining twelve people were familiar faces. They were acquaintances, and they must all be acquainted with big figures like Gushan Bushui who had made a name for themselves.
"I didn't expect that the leader of the Hyuga clan would personally lead the team. Welcome to be a guest of the Fusagi family!"
Gu Shan Bu Shui was greeted with a smile on his face. He had rarely communicated with him before, but he was not a stranger either.
"We are here to complete the mission, not as guests. The hospitality along the way makes us feel worthy. Thank you Major Governor for your generosity..."
The daimyo and the head of the Furusugi family were waiting. The two of them did not exchange excessive greetings. Surrounded by their servants, they entered the castle-like palace complex.
