Chapter 88 Daming Prefecture!
It was several days later when Wu Feitu left and returned to the Iwagakure Village.
On this day, Ohnoki called Deidara over.
"Xiao Di, time flies. In the blink of an eye, you are already 12 years old. It's a pity that time flies so fast. Ninjas from the old era like me are no longer young and can't keep up with the talent of you young people."
Deidara: "..."
"Old man, if you dare to say one more word of this meaningless nonsense, I will blow up your Tsuchikage Building!"
Snapped!
Ohnoki felt that the warm affection between him and Deidara, called the kindness of a teacher and the filial piety of a disciple, was broken.
"Young man, please stop being so irritable. I'm already so old..." Ohnoki said, and suddenly closed his mouth.
Because Deidara already had a piece of explosive clay in his hand.
"Hold on, hold on, I have something important to say!" Ohnoki hurriedly pressed down Deidara's hand. He felt that if he didn't speak quickly, Deidara would detonate the bomb in his hand.
"Hurry up and tell me, I'm very busy, okay!" Deidara took back the detonating clay reluctantly.
Ohnoki finally breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the few drops of cold sweat from his forehead and said:
"You are 12 years old, not young anymore. Others at this age start to fall in love early, but you are different. I know you are a promising talent, so I decided to pass the position of Tsuchikage to you and let you lead the Iwagakure Village on the road to prosperity!"
Deidara looked very disgusted and said, "Listen to what you said, are you talking like a human being? I'm only 12 years old and you want me to be a Tsuchikage? Can you retire peacefully at your age and at this stage? If this gets out, people will laugh at me for having no one in Iwagakure and you, Ōnoki, for having no ambition!"
"If you don't become a Tsuchikage at the age of 12, what do you want to do? You are not young anymore, hurry up and take the position. My back hurts and I don't want to sit in this position!"
Deidara nodded and squeezed out the words through gritted teeth: "Okay, okay, old man, you want to play like this, right? Okay, I did it, and you will see how I rule the Land of Earth!"
Ohnoki blew his beard and glared: "You can do whatever you want to me, anyway, I am about to retire, and I don't want to sit in the position of Tsuchikage for even a minute longer!
Every time I attend an exchange meeting with the major ninja villages, the Kages of other people are all young faces, but I am an old man. People laugh at us behind our backs for having no successors. It's so embarrassing!"
This is true. After Sarutobi Hiruzen died, Ōnoki was the only oldest Kage left among the five major ninja villages.
"I'll take this job. When will you abdicate? Hmm!"
Ohnoki took out a document and wrote something on it. He said as he wrote, "No rush. It should be within half a month. First, we need to inform the daimyo. Only after the appointment letter comes down, can we officially take the position of Tsuchikage."
"Is it really necessary to go through so much trouble? I can't wait. I'll bring the appointment letter back in a few days, ok!"
Deidara was unwilling to accept any appointment as daimyo. He either didn't want to be a Tsuchikage, or if he did, he wanted to be the highest one.
What is a daimyo?
The existence of daimyo with low martial arts power in this world of high martial arts is a very outrageous thing in itself. I can even fly and hide in the ground, so why do I need to listen to a mortal?
How painful it is to accept this kind of thing.
"Well, okay. I didn't expect you to be willing to go there in person. I thought you were not interested in such things."
Ohnoki thought that Deidara was going to meet the daimyo in person and ask for the letter of appointment. With his old-age mentality and deep-rooted daimyo supremacy, he never imagined that Deidara actually wanted to bring bad luck to the daimyo.
Without any doubt, Ōnoki signed the Tsuchikage certificate for Deidara and sent him to the capital of the Land of Earth.
Moon stars are rare.
Under the cover of night, the capital of the Land of Earth has fallen into silence.
Only Daming Mansion remains magnificent and brightly lit.
The daimyo, with his eyes wrapped in white satin, was playing an adult version of hide-and-seek with dozens of women.
This kind of game may be boring and incomprehensible to most people, but for people like Daimyo who have experienced it, it is just right and they enjoy it.
"Hahaha~ Oh, Your Highness, come and catch~ me~ ah~"
In the bright hall, many women were only wearing a layer of veil. With a random movement, the veil would slide off, revealing a large area of snow-white.
Daimyo twisted his fat body and smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum: "Haha~ Darlings, brother is here to do it! Come and let me catch you, who will be the first to be favored?"
Suddenly, bursts of seductive laughter rang out in the hall, and the hall was filled with a happy and debauched atmosphere.
"Ugh—Ugh!"
In this atmosphere of drunkenness and debauchery, an untimely sound of retching was suddenly heard.
The daimyo's head, which had just been raised, drooped down in fear at the sudden vomiting sound, which made him furious: "Who!? Who dares to trespass into the daimyo's harem without permission!"
Deidara stood up from his sitting position on the beam, and jumped down, holding his stomach. The acid reflux feeling in his stomach had not completely subsided.
The main thing is that this fat pig Daimyo is so disgusting, and his expression is so obscene when he plays games with these beautiful concubines.
It's really unbearable.
The daimyo tore off the white satin, looked closely, and saw the Iwagakure forehead protector on Deidara's forehead.
"So you are a ninja from the Hidden Rock Village. You are so brave! You broke into the daimyo's mansion without permission and disturbed my good deeds. You are destined to die! Come here!"
Hearing the daimyo's shout, a large group of soldiers armed with spears rushed into the hall.
The cold light of the armor and the cold and murderous weapons immediately frightened the many women in the hall, causing them to scream loudly and hide in the inner rooms.
"Your Highness, are you okay?"
The great general Kuroda Takashi rushed forward first and protected the daimyo behind him.
He drew his sword and pointed it at Deidara: "Who sent you, ninja? Tell me, and I will let you die more painlessly."
Deidara was too tired to complain, these lines were just wholesale!
He always felt that every villain would say something like this, telling you the purpose or information in a very convincing way, and then letting you die more easily.
In order to save time, Deidara was too lazy to explain anything. He directly took out the identity certificate guaranteed by the Tsuchikage himself, and then shook it open to show everyone:
"Don't get me wrong, I am from the Iwagakure regular army, and I am here on the orders of the Tsuchikage to get the appointment letter to succeed the Tsuchikage."
Hearing this, the daimyo breathed a sigh of relief, as he had thought that it was a rebel ninja who came to assassinate him.
But in doing so, Daimyo straightened his back immediately.
He looked at Deidara with a haughty attitude, not taking him seriously at all: "You disturbed my good deeds and still want to take the appointment letter of the Tsuchikage successor? Forget it, curl up into a ball and get out of here immediately! Let the Tsuchikage come here in person to apologize, and then I will consider the appointment letter."
The general and the soldiers looked at this scene indifferently, and even wanted to laugh. Those ignorant ninjas really thought too highly of themselves!
His Majesty the Daimyo can decide the life and death of these ninjas with just a flick of his finger.
"Your Excellency the Daimyo seems to have misunderstood something. I am not here to ask for your consent, but to inform you." Deidara took back the Tsuchikage credentials, and there was no expression on his face.
"presumptuous!"
The daimyo was furious: "Who do you think the ninja village relies on to survive? Is this your opinion or that of the Iwagakure Village?
Do you know that just because of this sentence from you, I can cancel all military expenses of your Iwagakure Village next quarter!"
Kuroda Takashi echoed, "Great! A bunch of fire-breathing and lightning-breathing jugglers, they really think they are in the right places!
The daimyo is willing to give you military funds, which is already a gift to you. Not only are you ungrateful, but you also dare to speak so rudely! "
In the eyes of the daimyo and Kuroda Takashi, the ninja village is nothing more than a cheap and easy-to-use tool, a sharp knife in the national war.
A very obedient and easy-to-use sharp knife that can pierce directly into the heart.
But now, the blade of the knife turned around and pointed at his vital points!
How could the daimyo swallow this? Just a sentence that was just to inform him made the daimyo decide to keep this Iwagakure ninja here forever!
"Kill him, and send a message to Ōnoki, asking him to rush to the daimyo's mansion before dawn to apologize!"
"Yes!" Kuroda Takashi answered loudly.
Deidara scratched his head and said shyly, "Although your remarks are indeed scary enough, I still want to ask you, do you two know nothing about power?"
Daimyo frowned and said angrily: "What do you mean, you still want to do it?!"
This is in Daming Prefecture!
The actual gap between a country and a village is huge. He has thousands of personal guards alone, and the army distributed in the Daimyo Prefecture has reached tens of thousands!
If this scope spreads to the whole country, the army will have hundreds of thousands of people!
No ninja village can contend with so many soldiers armed with sharp weapons. This is the confidence that the daimyo has over the ninja villages!
"It seems that you know nothing about power." Deidara shook his head and put a piece of explosive clay into his mouth and chewed it:
"Originally I was just planning to use illusion to control you gently, but now I've changed my mind. It turns out that using fear to control you is the best option!"
