Bai Yun Chapter 76: Society and Grid
The following journey, the four were more careful, but no enemy appeared again.
Perhaps, it was the enemy who discovered the identity of the consultant of Konoha Village, and he was no longer daring to attack easily.
Duanmu's gaze was directed in the direction of the Land of Rain. Except for the people who came out there, no one in the Land of Fire should dare to come to Duanmu to find unpleasantness.
After a week's journey, the Duanmu team finally met the capital of the Land of Fire.
The capital of the Land of Fire is located at the foot of a mountain called the Atago Mountains, with endless rice fields to the south and rolling mountains to the north.
Between the capital and the rice fields, there is the Nanga River as a moat.
Cross the bridge over the moat to enter the capital.
As soon as you enter the city gate, it is the widest street in the capital, enough for six carriages to drive side by side.
On both sides of the street, there are three or five-story wooden buildings. At the end of the street is the Grand Advocate Palace, the most important religious building in the capital.
Duanmu said:
"Tomorrow happens to be the winter solstice. You can see the largest memorial ceremony in the capital. After watching the festival, let's go to complete the task!
Don't run around tonight, stay in the hotel quietly, don't leave my sight. "
Li Huo and Bao are very novel to look around, everything here is full of freshness. Dororo frowned and looked ahead.
In the middle of the night, three figures entered the hotel where Duanmu was located. It is Duanmu's collaborator Tiao Yin and his subordinates in Kyoto.
"Long time no see, Mr. Tiao Yin."
"Long time no see, sir."
Duanmu seems to know that someone is coming to him, so he has prepared tea.
After the two sat opposite each other, Tiao Yin said:
"Advisor, you didn't let me know when you came to Kyoto. I knew I was ready to entertain you."
"Unfortunately, I didn't come here for the cooperation of the Self-Help Club, so I didn't want to disturb Mr. Tiaoyi. However, didn't you know that I was coming soon?"
"Okay... Consultant, I am here this time because I have something to ask about your attitude."
"Please say."
Tiao Yin, as the royal businessman of the daimyo, is responsible for coordination when the official is inconvenient to come forward.
Tiao Yin goes straight to the topic:
"Advisor, among your new students, there is a student named 'Dorolo', isn't it?"
"Yes, you guys are very well-informed. This is my first time as a team teacher this year, and there is indeed this student in my subordinates. But is there anything special about this name?"
"It's really special, and I think you may have been taken advantage of."
Duanmu instantly became interested: "Oh? How do you say this?"
"As far as I know, this student of yours was not chosen by you, but assigned to you by the Konoha Village Ninja School. I wonder if I am right?"
Duanmu pondered for a while, and it was true:
"You've done a really good job of intelligence work, you know that... It seems that there are quite a few of you in Konoha Village."
"It's a heavy word, of course there will be a very close relationship between Guodu and Konoha Village. Lord Duanmu, it is very likely that there are people with bad intentions who are deliberately creating conflicts between some people in Guodu and your advisor, Sir."
"Put those who have bad intentions aside first, and I will investigate later. Please rest assured of the intelligence strength of the root. But who are the people in this 'guodu'?"
"Let's be blunt, my advisor. The defense of the national capital is mainly in charge of the General's Mansion. The General's Mansion destroyed a school a few years ago, which had studied some dangerous theories that were detrimental to the daimyo. That disciple of yours is the son of a teacher in the academy."
Duanmu probably knew the whole story, so he said:
"I see.
There is one thing Mr. Tiaoyin may not know. For those who enter Konoha to settle outside the village, especially those who enter the ninja school, the village will read his memory, so as not to bring danger to Konoha.
Now that Ninja School has recruited Dororo, it proves that Dororo's memory has been read.
I've seen Dororo's file, and from his memory, he doesn't know anything about the capital. "
Tiao Yin frowned and said, "Advisor, Konoha Village's methods are of course very effective, but just in case, please ask the advisor to hand Dororo to me."
Duanmu shook his head, smiled and said to Tiao Yin:
"Impossible, Lord Tiaoyin, Dororo is now Konoha's ninja. It's impossible to hand over a Konoha's official ninja with just a few words."
Tiao Yin still didn't give up, her voice raised a bit and said: "Advisor! If you do this, I can't explain it to the general's mansion and the daimyo!"
Duanmu's expression gradually became solemn, and he said **** for tat:
"For me, the general's mansion is not important, the name is a little more important.
But, my students, it's very important.
Lord Tiaoyin, have you ever thought about it, if I just handed over my students like this, how would I explain to Konoha? "
Tian Yin saw Duanmu's resolute attitude, so he had to come up with the last condition:
"Lord Advisor, Lord Hokage III is very old. I can promise you on behalf of the General's House that if you hand over Dororo, the capital will support you in the selection of the next Hokage!"
Tiao Yin was looking forward to Duanmu's surprise when he heard this condition, but he was disappointed.
Duanmu said indifferently:
"You don't have to worry about this. Konoha will choose a new Hokage, and the country will directly agree as usual."
Seeing Duanmu holding up the teacup, Tiao Yin had no choice but to leave.
When Tiao Yin was about to go out, Duanmu added again:
"Lord Tiao Yin, I'm here to give you and the General's House a warning. Dororo is my student, stay away from him."
Tiao Yin reluctantly chose to leave.
Duanmu shouted to the cubicle after Tiao Yin walked away:
"Come out, Dororo."
Dorolo walked out of Duanmu's suite with a lingering fear.
Duo Luoluo said with a sad face: "Mr. Duanmu, I've caused you trouble."
Duanmu waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's nothing, it's all within the controllable range.
However, your weight is really heavy. You actually asked the capital to come up with the support of the Hokage as a condition. This is a condition that few people in the capital can do to influence Konoha. "
Dororo took a scroll from his bosom and said:
"Teacher Duanmu, it is not me that is important, but the collapsed Gewu Society is very important.
The important research results of the academy are written in this scroll, and what people in the capital want is also this scroll. "
Duanmu looked at the scroll and said:
"If you want, you can give this scroll to a Jōnin named Genma Shiranui, who is my current occult assistant at my roots.
Speaking of which, you should thank two people.
One is the current head of the Konoha Judgment Department and he is the same as the former assistant secretary of the root department. It was he who, according to the report of the Ninja at the root of the capital, judged that both you and the academy had been subjected to abnormal retaliation, so he rescued you and sent it to Konoha.
The other is Genma Shiranui I mentioned just now. As the current assistant secretary of Genbu, he judges that the country will not let you go. It happened that I came to lead the team this year, so I included you in my team. "
Dorolo asked disappointedly: "Mr. Duanmu, didn't you deliberately recruit me into your team?"
Duanmu said with some embarrassment:
"You know, I've been getting lazy lately, and a few assistants are handling a lot of things at the root.
If it wasn't for Xuanjian looking for me, I wouldn't even know so many arrangements rooted in you.
This is also fate, proving that you and I have the fate of teachers and students. "
Dororo said:
"Teacher Duanmu, please hand over this scroll to Lord Xuanjian!
There is one more thing you need to know. There are many tasks related to the capital. I chose the route from the capital to the land of thunder. The main reason is that several teachers of the academy escaped to the land of thunder.
Teacher Duanmu, please believe that if a few teachers can be rescued back to Konoha, many studies of the academy will greatly help Konoha!
The past dynasties of the academy have studied a discipline called 'Gewu', which allows ordinary people to master the power of machinery and fuel, and burst out with the power of ninjutsu! "
Duanmu's thoughts suddenly drifted back to his previous life and said:
"I know, and I believe it."
