I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

"Sorry." Shuntaro said in a calm tone that was neither salty nor light, "I just sat with my friend for a while, and I was too involved in the chat, so I came late."

Shuntaro has already put on the costume of the male ninja in their Shiranui.

The parts below the eyes are covered with black cloth.

The parts above the eyes are also covered with black cloth.

The whole face shows only a pair of eyes.

"No, Shuntaro-sama, you are not late, you came just in time." Zhou Taro turned his head to look at the low house not far away.

"The traitor is now in that house."

Shuntaro glanced at the low, lightless house, "Are you sure that Rebellion is inside?"

"Since the traitor entered the house, our people have been watching. Since he entered the house this afternoon, he has not come out again." Zhou Tailang's tone was quite firm.

"Hmm. Is everyone else in place?" Shuntaro asked.

"It's all in place." Zhou Tailang nodded.

"Then let's start attacking." Shuntaro said without any hesitation, "Let's fight quickly."

"Master Shuntaro." Zhou Taro said urgently, "Can you entrust me with the task of leading people into the house?"

Shuntaro glanced at Shutaro.

He instantly saw through Zhou Tailang's little thought and planned to show himself well in this task.

The amount of tasks that Shiranui can receive now has shown a trend of decreasing year by year.

Fewer tasks meant that it was getting harder and harder for the ninjas to advance.

If they want to be promoted, ninjas have to try their best to express themselves in this limited task.

Shuntaro no longer needs to rely on any tasks to express himself.

So I am happy to hand over the troublesome part to others.

"Okay." Shuntaro nodded, "I'll give you 2 Chunin and 6 Genin, and you will be responsible for attacking."

"I will lead the others to guard outside."

"Xie Shuntaro-sama." After Zhou Taro cast a grateful look at Shuntaro, he pulled out Kunai with determination.

After gesturing to the 2 Chunin and 6 Genin not far away to follow him, Zhou Taro led these people and rushed towards the low house.

They used the breath-holding and stealth techniques passed down from generation to generation in Shiranui, and approached the low house without making a sound.

They were divided into 3 groups. One group led by Zhou Tailang leaned toward the gate, and the other 2 groups leaned toward 2 windows.

After confirming that everyone was in their positions, Zhou Tailang waved his hand and sent a short signal to his subordinates: start attacking!

Following Shutaro's order, the ninjas scattered at various entrances crashed into the room together.

As soon as he rushed into the low house, Zhou Tailang frowned.

Because he smelled a nice faint fragrance in the air.

It seems to be the smell of "powder" that women use to make themselves fragrant.

This guy is so laid back

Zhou Tailang said contemptuously in his heart.

He even spent money to buy women to come and have fun.

The qualities and abilities of the ninja were brought into full play by Zhou Taro and the others.

Before the attack started, there was no way to make a sound, and after rushing into the house, they quickly controlled every part of the house.

Yet every room is empty.

It wasn't until Zhou Tailang and others rushed into the last small room of the low house that they finally saw the figure.

It was a room with no furniture of any kind.

A figure sat cross-legged in the corner of the room.

"I found it." Zhou Tailang smiled ferociously at the figure in the room.

The figure was neither strong nor thin.

The wrinkles on the face have mottled marks, and the age is not too young.

He was wearing an ordinary kimono, with no hakama or socks on his lower body, and a pair of worn-out straw sandals on his feet.

The uncle just sat cross-legged on the tatami in this room, smoking leisurely with a pipe.

Even though Zhou Tailang and others rushed in, the uncle remained calm as before.

"I finally caught you, you traitor, do you know how long it took us to track down your whereabouts?"

"Obviously, just grab it."

"Anyway, it's impossible for you to escape, so you can feel better if you get caught obediently."

"Zhou Taro, don't be too confident." After the uncle blew out a smoke ring, "No matter what I say, I'm a Junin just like you."

"Being an enemy of Jonin, doesn't it seem a little too easy for you to look like this?"

"Do you think I don't know your details?" Zhou Tailang sneered, "Although you are a Jnin with me, in terms of fighting ability, you are not outstanding."

"If it's one-on-one, you're not my opponent at all."

"What's more, let me tell you some good news." Zhou Taro's face showed a faint sarcasm, "The one who came to arrest you this time is Master Shuntaro."

"Shuntaro?" The uncle, who had been calm since just now, finally showed a slight change in expression, "Hmph, what an honor to be able to alert the head of the Four Heavenly Kings to arrest me."

Zhou Tailang was very satisfied with the subtle change in the expression on the uncle's face just now.

After showing an even more ferocious smile, Zhou Tailang went on to say:

"I'm kind enough to tell you another piece of good news."

"In addition to tracking your whereabouts, we also found out who your accomplices are."

"I remember Gua Shengxiu, right? I never thought that a mere person who works in Yoshiwara would have the guts to fight against Shiranui."

"Now, our people have gone to Yoshiwara."

"In a short time, that accomplice of yours should turn into a cold corpse."

Zhou Tailang's words caused the uncle's face to be shaken much more intensely than before.

Zhou Taro, who had been carefully observing the changes in the uncle's expression, let out a more pleasant laugh.

"When you and your accomplice decide to fight against Shiranui, you should think about what will happen in the future."

"If you want to blame, blame yourself for being so stupid in the first place."

At this time, the uncle's expression and expression returned to calm.

He raised the bong in his hand again, took a deep breath, exhaled a big eye circle, and said softly:

"I'm still underestimating you! You can find out so many in such a short period of time."

A little smugness appeared on Zhou Tailang's face.

just when he was about to say something

"But while I underestimated you, you also underestimated me."

After all, the uncle turned the bong in his hand, and with the end of the gun pointing down, he stuffed it into a small hole on the tatami next to him.

There was no light around, even Zhou Tailang could see the uncle's face vaguely.

Only now did Zhou Tailang realize that there was such an inconspicuous hole in the tatami beside the uncle.

The bong hit the edge of the small hole hard, and dazzling sparks fell into the hole.

Seeing this, Zhou Tailang's pupils contracted violently in fright.

"Retreat outside the house!!"

When he quickly realized what the uncle was going to do, Zhou Tailang yelled like this with a reflexive speed, and fled outside the house

boom!

There was a deafening explosion.

Nearly a quarter of the roof of the low house was directly blown off.

The detonation not only woke up the surrounding residents.

It also woke up Shuntaro who was on guard outside.

Shuntaro looked at the low house with one-third of the tatami mats missing not far away, and after a moment of stunned, he rushed to the small house that was constantly emitting thick smoke at the highest speed he could achieve. .

As soon as he arrived at the low house, Shuntaro saw Zhou Taro, who was ashamed and bloodstained on his face.

"What's going on?" Shuntaro asked anxiously.

"Cough, cough, that bastard planted explosives under the tatami mats and detonated them with the flame of a bong"

The current situation of Zhou Tailang and others is not miserable.

Of the people who had just entered the house, only half of them were still safe and sound.

The half of the people headed by Zhou Tailang escaped from the range of the explosion in time, and only recovered their lives.

The other half of those with poorer skills or slower reactions were seriously injured or killed directly.

"So it's like this," Zhou Tailang said angrily, "The scent in the room is used to cover up the smell of gunpowder."

When entering the house, Zhou Tailang thought that the faint fragrance in the air was the fragrance left after buying a woman to have fun.

Zhou Taro also bought women to play.

So he knew that the fragrance powder used by some women has a strong smell and lasts for a long time.

Until now, Zhou Tailang realized that he was wrong. The fragrance was deliberately made to cover up the smell of gunpowder.

"Where's Rebel Ninja?" Shuntaro then asked, "Where did he go?"

"He escaped through the tunnel." Zhou Tailang gritted his teeth, "But I shot him a kunai before he got into the tunnel. My kunai hit his side."

At the moment before escaping from the house, Zhou Tailang saw the uncle igniting the gunpowder, and immediately lifted the tatami under his buttocks, and then got in.

Hidden weapons are Zhou Taro's forte.

So when he saw that the uncle was about to get into the tunnel, he quickly raised his hand and threw a kunai, which hit the uncle's side accurately.

After Kunai hit the uncle's flank, Zhou Tailang clearly heard the uncle let out a low cry of pain.

"Master Shuntaro, let's chase after him!" Zhou Taro said anxiously, "There can't be a tunnel in this kind of dilapidated house! So the tunnel should be dug out by him temporarily, and the length should not be long!"

"Plus he was stabbed by my Kunai now, if we go after him now, maybe we can catch up!"

Edo, Yoshiwara, somewhere inconspicuous outside the gate

"Phew, the weather seems to be getting colder and colder." Yuan Yi said while tightening the skirt of his upper body, "I'm really old, so I feel a bit chilly. I can't take it anymore."

Minamoto was wearing that white bathrobe as usual.

Although Genichi said so, Ogata did not see even a goosebump on Genichi's skin.

Ogata has been with Genichi for a long time now, so he has become more and more used to Genichi's "Versailles" speeches that pop up from time to time.

"Master Yuan" Ogata sighed, "I feel that we should have nothing tonight."

Ogata and Genichi stared at Yoshihara's gate for nearly half an hour.

It should be early in the morning, and there are very few people going in and out of Yoshiwara, almost none.

"It seems that our luck tonight is not very good." Yuan agreed with what Ogata said just now, "No way, we can only wait until tomorrow night, maybe we will run into a mouse tomorrow night. Let's go back Go to sleep."

Ogata let out a helpless sigh with a bit of sadness.

It's freezing again tonight

While thinking this in his heart, he stood up and walked quickly back to the hotel with Yuan Yi one by one.

Because they were rushing back to sleep, neither Ogata nor Genichi walked slowly.

Quickly left from the gate of Yoshiwara, got off the Japanese embankment, and embarked on the road back to the hotel.

However, when it was almost halfway to the hotel
