On the morning of December 25, Year 55 of the Konoha Calendar, the capital of the Country of Ina, Ina Castle.
The news of Miyamoto Koumi's assassination has spread, and many people have spontaneously paid tribute in grief, such as changing into bright clothes, hanging white cloth on their signboards, and some entertainment venues have even closed down.
However, generally speaking, the people were relatively quiet.
However, the arrival of the massive ninja army broke the tranquility. Every household immediately closed their doors, and people were panicked for a while.
The most tense thing was the inner city. Not only were the city gates closed, but thousands of guards with chakra were gathered. …
Inside and outside the city.
Mochizuki Shinzaburo led Mochizuki's hundred people to stop the aggressive ninja army, "Yoshimi Takegami, stop, what do you want to do!"
Takeami Yoshimi shouted: "I am avenging my father, the general."
Mochizuki Shinzaburo was furious: "Nonsense, when did the General become your father!"
At this time, Takayama Tomoya arrived with Yamazaki and Meidaizi.
Mochizuki Shinsaburo continued: "Only your two highnesses are the heirs of the shogun."
Takeami Yoshimi asked: "The General regards each of us as his children, so what's wrong with us calling the General our father?"
"Strong words." Mochizuki Shinsaburo shouted, "Go back immediately. If the general is here, I will never let you do this."
"But my father has been killed by people from this city. Not only did you not help us, you came to stop us," Takegami asked in a serious voice, "I would like to ask you, Mochizuki Shinzaburo, father My lord’s guard, the leader of the hundreds of people who watch the moon, what are your intentions?”
"I just stick to your wishes, sir. You don't want chaos in the Ina Country." Shinzaburo Mochizuki advised, "Go back, we will find out the matter."
"Check? How to check?" Takeami Yoshimi sneered, "A hundred of you Mochizuki people were guarding the Lord, and it was only after the Lord was killed that you found out, how can you check? You should be the one who needs to be checked."
"shut up!"
"What did you say!"
The hundreds of people watching the moon were struck in their thoughts, and they became excited and spoke one after another.
Takegami Yoshimi sneered: "Look at each of you, do you have the right to speak here? It's because there is something wrong in your heart."
Mochizuki Shinzaburo was ashamed and angry, "Yoshimi Takegami, don't slander anyone. We Mochizuki Hundreds are loyal to you, and we will never do the kind of thing you said."
Takegami Yoshimi sneered: "Hmph, after torture using torture ninjutsu, maybe your innocence can be cleared."
"You..." Mochizuki Shinsaburo said angrily, then took a deep breath to calm down, "Okay, I will give you an explanation."
"Nobuzaburo, no!"
Takayama Chiya realized what Shinzaburo Mochizuki wanted to do and was shocked.
"Stop talking about it. Under the torture ninjutsu, every few people can be safe and sound." Shinzaburo Mochizuki said solemnly, "After all, this matter happened because of my negligence. I can't harm everyone."
"Lord Nobuzaburo!"
"If your lord says so, then count me alone. I was the one on duty last night."
"Count me in."
"And I."
While the hundreds of people watching the moon were moved, the people on duty last night stood up one after another, a total of thirty-two people.
"Stop, stop quickly." Kikuchi Tadashi rushed over, but there were only a few hundred ninja troops behind him.
Takegami Yoshimi said loudly: "Kikuchi Tadashi, look at these people behind you and you will know that most of the ninja army supports me in avenging the general."
Kikuchi Tadashi said: "Yoshimi, the general doesn't want to see us killing each other."
Takeami Yoshimi said: "No, you are wrong. Whether they are our partners depends on whether they are innocent."
"Everyone, stop talking," Mochizuki Shinzaburo shouted, and then knelt on the ground to kowtow to Yamazaki and Meidaizi. Thirty-two members of the Mochizuki Hundred People who stood up also knelt down and kowtowed.
Mochizuki Shinsaburo said: "Your Highnesses, Mochizuki Shinsaburo was deeply favored by the shogun. Thanks to the shogun's love, he led a hundred people of Mochizuki to accompany the shogun. However, this time, when the shogun was killed, there was no one at all. I feel that I have neglected my duty and deserve to be punished.”
Yamazaki asked: "Sir Shinzaburo, do you have to do this?"
"Yes, Your Highness, only in this way can we prove the innocence of Mochizuki Hundreds." Mochizuki Shinsaburo said, "But, I have a request, please His Highness agree to bury us next to the General."
"Okay, I agree." Yamazaki touched Mei Daizi.
Mei Daizi responded, "I agree too."
Mochizuki Shinsaburo smiled and said: "Thank you, Your Highnesses, so that we can die without regrets."
"Thank you, Your Highnesses." The thirty-two kneeling members of the Hundred Moon Watchers said together.
Takayama Tomoya and the other members of the Mochizuki Hundreds couldn't help but shed tears.
Mochizuki Shinsaburo smiled at the Mochizuki Hundreds and said: "Everyone, I, Mochizuki Shinsaburo, as the leader of the Mochizuki Hundreds, announce something here today, and the Mochizuki Hundreds will be disbanded."
"Yes, sir." Everyone choked.
Mochizuki Shinsaburo smiled and said: "As your friend, I want to take the first step and hope you don't come too fast." After saying that, he lifted the psychic spell and let his psychic beast partner free, and then used his own pain to Wu stabbed himself in the head and died instantly.
"Congratulations, my lord."
The hundred people in front of Mochizuki, headed by Takayama Tomoya, all kowtowed in tears and said goodbye.
Then, the thirty-two members of the Mochizuki Hundreds said goodbye to their friends, and then, like Shinsaburo Mochizuki, released the psychic spell to free their psychic beast companions, and then committed suicide with kunai.
Suddenly, an atmosphere of heroic sadness filled the air.
"Have a good journey." Takayama Tomoya and the other hundreds of people who came to watch the moon cried and kowtowed to say goodbye.
Meidaizi said to Yamazaki: "Brother, I feel uncomfortable in my heart."
"Me too." Yamazaki sighed, "Cry if you want."
"I can't cry." Although Mei Daizi said this, tears flowed down.
Takegami Yoshimi saluted the bodies, "Mochizuki Shinsaburo, I now believe in your innocence. You did what you should do, and now it's my turn."
Kikuchi loyally advised: "Yoshimi Takeami, isn't this enough? Stop."
"These are two different things," Takegami Yoshimi said, "The duty of the Mochizuki Hundreds is to protect my father. It can be said to be my father's shield. Now that my father is gone, they are still alive. This should not be done; and as a person, I The commander of the ninja army, in addition to leading everyone to protect the country of rice, is to serve as a sharp sword in the hands of father, and it is our duty to avenge him."
As Takeami Yoshimi waved, more than 30,000 ninja troops rushed towards the inner city.
"Earth Escape: Thousand Layers of Wall!"
Kikuchi loyally led his men to erect layers of thorny rock walls to block the ninja army.
"Wind Escape·Soar into the Sky!"
Several leaders led hundreds of ninja troops to perform ninjutsu. A strong wind blew the companions in front off the ground. They flew over layers of rock walls and rushed towards the inner city.
"Fire arrows."
"No!"
Kikuchi Tadashi was shocked when he heard the order coming from the inner city. In this case, it would be equivalent to starting a war, and he had no position to stop the ninja army.
However, the guards in the inner city did not obey Kikuchi's loyalty, but took orders to shoot arrows.
A barrage of chakra-laden arrows rose into the sky, quickly heading towards the hundreds of ninja troops in the air.
Most of the hundreds of ninja soldiers had no time to use their ninjutsu in their haste. Except for a few who turned around to avoid it, the rest were hit by arrows and fell.
However, the second wave of arrows rose into the air, not only shooting down the ninja soldiers who had avoided the first wave of arrows, but also shot a large number of arrows at the second wave of ninja soldiers rising into the air.
What followed was more arrows. The continuous arrows from thousands of guards formed a large rain of arrows, covering the inner and outer walls of the city, including Kikuchi Loyalist, Takayama Tomoya and others, as well as Yamazaki and Meidaiko. List.
"Protect your two highnesses." Takemi Yoshimi commanded, and then shouted loyally to Kikuchi, "Kikuchi, is this the person you want to protect? You haven't released the ninjutsu yet."
Kikuchi was loyal and had nothing to say, so he could only lead his subordinates to lift the Ninjutsu Thousand Walls.
"Wind escape..."
The wind-attributed ninja troops used their ninjutsu to scatter the incoming arrows.
A part of the ninja army jumped around Yamazaki, Meidaizi and Takayama Tomoya, protecting them, and at the same time used wind escape to blow away the arrows.
One of them, Yamazaki and Meidaizi knew each other, and the Jonin Feng Kongrei was the one who dealt with the ocean storm on Kaikai Day.
At this time, a man flew over with Takegami Girei. The man had a pair of wings, like dragonfly wings, but much larger.
"Are you going to attack the city? Get out of the way." After the man landed near Takegami Yoshimi, he let go of Takegami, and then a blue light glowed on his body, and seven tails rose behind him, making him look like a beast.
Takeami Yoshimi's expression changed drastically, "Get away, everyone, stay away."
"Asshole!" Takayama Tomoya said angrily, "Everyone, get away! It's the Tailed Beast Jade!"
The ninja troops in front hurriedly avoided it and used their maximum speed.
In front of the man's mouth, a black projectile grew in size, and its huge energy made everyone shudder.
"Whoosh!"
"boom!"
Black projectiles the size of a human head were shot out, directly penetrating the inner city wall and exploding in the inner city.
The sky-high explosion made the earth tremble, and the shock wave sent up smoke and dust all over the sky. Then it destroyed the city wall and rushed out of the inner city. Broken bricks and debris were scattered like sharp swords.
"Earth Escape..."
"Water escape……"
"Mud Escape..."
"Wind escape..."
Takayama Tomoya led the team to use various ninjutsu to build layers of defenses around them, and finally withstood the shock wave.
However, no one knew how many ninja troops were affected, and the bursts of screams made people extremely angry.
"Teacher, is this the Tailed Beast Jade? It's really amazing." Mei Daizi asked excitedly.
"Yes, this is the Tailed Beast Jade." Takayama Tomoya said with some annoyance, "This bastard Takegami Yoshimi actually came to find someone from Takigakure."
Feng Kongling said: "Our leader is sure of victory, and we don't want to see this happen."
"If he could think of inviting people from Takigakure, he should have thought that something like this might happen. The Human Power Pillar has always been known for its instability, so he asked them to stay far away from the city." Takayama Tomoya said angrily. , "Fortunately, the inner city is still some distance away from the city. Now I just hope it won't affect too many people."
Feng Kongling had nothing to say. …
