...

"yes!"

Doma Senju didn't ask why and responded straightforwardly.

I only saw the back of Senju Nawaki.

He felt a little emotional, thinking that he was getting old. When he was waiting outside the training room, he felt the powerful energy fluctuations inside the training room, which far exceeded that of Hashirama Senju in the past.

I suddenly felt frustrated.

I can't help Senju Nawaki much in terms of strength, but fortunately I can help Senju Nawaki with these miscellaneous matters.

"The younger generations in the family should also work hard, otherwise they will really become a burden to the clan leader."

Recalling the clan members who were captured by the Land of the Sky, he made up his mind to improve the strength of the clan and help Senju Nawaki.

Doma Senju looked towards the direction of the Land of Fire's capital, hoping that the Daimyō of the Land of Fire could recognize the situation.

…

The Land of Fire.

Capital.

Daimyō's Mansion.

It covers an area of ​​more than ten square kilometers, which is dozens of times the area of ​​the Daimyō Prefecture in the Land of Rice Fields. The interior decoration is also very magnificent. It is worthy of being the most powerful country in the ninja world and the center of the ninja world.

After several expansions, it was no longer just a place where the daimyo lived, but could be said to be a small fortress.

Led by a close retainer of the daimyo's mansion, Senju Nawaki arrived at the place where the daimyo of the Land of Fire summoned him. A group of people were already waiting.

He frowned and looked around.

Unlike ninjas, these nobles like to hold meetings in a home. What Senju Nawaki dislikes most is that these people always like to kneel.

It has to be in the very center, high above, looking down on everything.

Sitting in the main seat was the current daimyo of the Land of Fire, a spirited old man. Senju Nawaki sensed a scent of decay from him that had already spread throughout his body. His current condition was just a disguise, and he wasn't going to live long.

The group on the left is the aunt of Senju Nawaki. Her original surname was Senju, but after marrying the daimyo of the Land of Fire, she took the daimyo's surname - Genji.

The Genji are also the oldest native nobles in the ninja world, and rarely have the talent to cultivate chakra.

Next to her was her cousin Fujiwara Hiroshi, whom she had never met. Combining the surnames of the Senju clan and the Genji clan, the Senju clan's surname became Fuji.

After Senju Nawaki approached, his aunt gestured to him to sit at the last seat beside his aunt, behind Fujiwara Hiroshi.

This is to treat Senju Nawaki as a subject of the Land of Fire, and also to give Senju Nawaki a warning.

A trace of silence flashed across Senju Nawaki's face, but he did not feel wronged.

He nodded slightly to his aunt.

With a slight wave of his right hand, the floor tiles beneath his feet cracked, and a sapling grew rapidly, becoming the shape of a chair.

The location where he is located is opposite to that of the Daimyō of the Land of Fire.

They were even taller than the daimyo, and from the perspective of others, it looked like they were all kneeling down to pay their respects to Senju Nawaki.

An abnormal red color appeared on the face of the Daimyō of the Land of Fire, but he suppressed it in an instant without saying anything more.

Fujiwara Hiroshi could not hide the joy on his face, and there was also a hint of excitement. This was his support. With the support of Senju Nawaki's powerful strength, he would surely be able to become a daimyo smoothly.

His own father had broken his promises many times and was already planning to exile him, hoping to change the daimyo's mind.

Senju Nawaki's aunt didn't think so. She knew the daimyo of the Land of Fire, and the more so, the less likely her son would become a daimyo.

Every ruler does not want to be threatened, especially a ruler who is about to die.

The other side.

To the right of the Daimyō of the Land of Fire, a row of people were already very excited.

In their eyes, Senju Nawaki was too arrogant and even openly challenged the daimyo's authority.

"Senju Nawaki, when you met the lord, why didn't you just bow and salute? And you dared to do such an outrageous thing. You are indeed a vulgar person."

On the right, the minister in a red brocade robe almost jumped up and roared angrily.

His round belly, colliding with his chin, looked particularly funny.

"Who are you?"

Senju Nawaki sat down, leaned back in his chair, and asked with his eyes narrowed.

He didn't take anyone present seriously at all. They were just powerless clowns putting on a show for Senju Nawaki.

The ninjas hiding behind were only a dozen or so senior ninjas. In the eyes of Senju Nawaki, they were a joke in protecting the safety of these people.

I already had a guess in my mind that this should be another group of forces competing for the title of Daimyō of the Land of Fire.

Their support lies in the traditional nobles of the Land of Fire and other ninja villages of Konohagakure.

"The Minister of Finance of the Land of Fire, Genji Haitang!"

The finance minister in a red brocade robe adjusted his big belly with his arms and said with pride.

He is the legitimate heir of the Genji family and despises the power of ninja the most.

The position of the Minister of Finance is one of the best in the Land of Fire and is extremely important, which has made him arrogant.

"idiot!"

Senju Nawaki took a glance and saw three guards behind him. Just by their aura, he could tell that they belonged to the Ino-Shika-Chō.

The Minister of Finance? Wasn't he the one who used monetary policy to isolate the Senju clan, forcing them to use several times more currency to buy their meager supplies?

No wonder he jumped out so quickly, he had already targeted the Senju clan.

[Have you ever seen a loaf of bread worth 500,000 Ryō?]

Such a person, who has no control and just relies on the default rules, wants to oppress Senju Nawaki. How naive.

Point slightly with your right hand.

Snap...

At the Chancellor's feet, a small sapling turned into a javelin, piercing through his fat belly, and oozing out pools of scarlet and yellow unknown liquid.

His eyes were full of disbelief. He touched the sticky liquid flowing out of his eyes with his hand, raised his hand and stabbed it into his eyes. His feelings turned into despair and fear. He smelled a fishy odor in his nose, which was a mixture of his own blood and urine.

He forced his head to turn and look at his guard, the strong man of the Ino-Shika-Chō mentioned by Konohagakure.

Wanting to know, "Why didn't you protect me? You untouchables!"

They died even more miserably than the Chancellor of Finance, their bodies impaled by Mokuton and blood gushing from their mouths.

The vitality of ninjas is stronger than that of ordinary people. They retain their last bit of strength, but dare not say anything harsh to Senju Nawaki. There is only bitterness in their eyes.

I didn't expect Senju Nawaki to be so lawless that he dared to take action in front of the Daimyō of the Land of Fire.

"Without power, your so-called respect is just empty talk."

Senju Nawaki shook his head and uttered a few words, which were addressed to the dead Minister of Finance and also to the Daimyō of the Land of Fire.

Let them face reality.

Compared to Hiruzen Sarutobi who was the mastermind behind the incident, the Ino-Shika-Chō was the weapon used to kill Senju Nawaki, and Senju Nawaki never wanted to let them go.

I just couldn't free my hands, and I didn't expect these guys to bump into me.

They were bound by the systems of the ninja world and believed that Senju Nawaki would not dare to take action.

The entire meeting hall fell into an eerie silence. Because of their usual restraint, everyone's face became stiff, hiding the fear in their hearts.
