Daming Mansion is a six-story pyramid-like building, with a height of forty or fifty meters. At this time, the second floor of the main hall lost its support, and the upper floors were heavy and pressed down, causing great power and causing smoke and dust to rise in an instant.

Thick smoke and flying dust spread rapidly to the surroundings, forcing Hayate to take Hiiragi and the three of them back some distance. They did not stop until the diffuse smoke and dust slowly stopped.

Several people looked anxiously at the thick smoke and dust in front of them, but from the outside, the sound of large pieces of armor moving soon came. Hiirato frowned, raised his head and looked back.

Soon, a group of warriors rushed in from the periphery. The leader was obviously different from the other warriors. He had a distinctive appearance, with long beards on his mouth and chin. His head was wrapped in a bandage. He was wearing green laminated armor and wore it on his waist. A katana.

Hiiragi naturally recognizes this person. He is the general of the Iron Country, Mifune.

A few days ago, a small town on the edge of the Iron Kingdom was massacred inexplicably. This is not a small matter. In addition, the current daimyo of the Iron Kingdom has just passed away, and the succession ceremony of the next daimyo has not been held yet. It is possible that other countries will borrow the opportunity. This opportunity was taken advantage of.

His Highness Qingyu used this matter as an excuse to ask Mifune to go and investigate in person.

Originally, Mifune was unwilling to go before the succession of the Daimyo position was completed. However, because this was an extraordinary period and it was of no small importance, and Aoba's insistence on the safety of the Iron Kingdom, Mifune had to agree in the end.

After Mifune led the Samurai Guards to investigate the town for a few days, they found that all the townspeople had strange deaths. They seemed to have been killed by some evil spell instead of ninjutsu, and some of them had knife marks on their bodies.

Now he was rushing back to discuss this matter with Qingyu in detail, but he never expected that when he just rushed back to the capital, Mifune saw something wrong with Daming Palace from a distance because Daming Palace is the largest building in the capital.

This was no small matter. Even the three ships did not dare to stop. They led their samurai guards towards Daming Mansion at full speed. When they were about to approach Daming Mansion, there was a sudden "rumbling!"

The Daming Mansion collapsed, causing smoke and dust to spread all over the place. Mifune's complexion changed drastically, and he moved faster, leading the guards through several layers of square walls. Then, Mifune saw Hayate and others wearing Konoha forehead protectors.

Although Mifune knew that Aoyu had specially entrusted the ninjas of Konoha Village in the Land of Fire to hunt down the Second Highness who stole the sword, when he saw Hayate and the others, his expressions were furious because he immediately suspected that they had something to do with the Daming Mansion. Things should matter.

"That's unreasonable. Guys from Konoha, what happened in the Daming Mansion? Is it possible that your Fire Nation wants to start a war with the Iron Nation?"

What Mifune said was not a trivial matter. Hayate's expression changed when he heard the words.

"Who are you? Please stop talking nonsense!"

"Humph!"

Mifune snorted coldly and continued angrily: "I am the general of the Iron Kingdom, Mifune. No matter what, you must put down your weapons first and wait for me to investigate in detail before making a decision. Otherwise, I will kill you without mercy!"

After Mifune finished speaking, the samurai guard beside him immediately pulled out the katana from his waist, then quickly leaned up and surrounded Hayate and the others.

At this time, Daming Mansion was still filled with smoke and dust, and it was obvious that the sound of collapse had not stopped. Therefore, even if Mifune had arrived here, he could not bring people in to search forcibly. He could only choose to control Hayate and others first.

Gale's face darkened, and he naturally knew that he could not take action now, because if he resisted, it would be more difficult to explain clearly, and it might even trigger a war between the two countries.

He had no choice but to raise his right hand, ready to put down the long knife in his hand.

"Admiral Mifune, I will explain to you what happened here!"

Suddenly a voice came from the distance, and then a figure ducked out of the smoke and dust. It was Kakashi, and there was someone with him, the red-haired Second Highness, Akabane.

Kakashi flew down to Hayate's side and released His Highness Akabane. Seeing this, Hiirato immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, Mifune also saw clearly who the visitor was. When he saw His Highness Akabane, he frowned and said, "Akabane, what on earth is going on!"

"Admiral Mifune, after the smoke dissipates and you lead the guards to conduct a personal inspection, I will explain it to you. Even if I explain it now, you may not believe me!"

Akabane's words made sense. Mifune raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes, but your weapons must be deducted first. I will make a decision after I complete the survey!"

What Mifune did was in line with his own logic. After all, the country's Daming Mansion was in trouble. This was no small matter and must be taken seriously.

As a jounin, Kakashi certainly understood this. Hiirato nodded, but when he reached out to hand over the weapon, his expression suddenly froze.

Because it was discovered that White Fang was missing!

Oops!

Hiirato looked shocked, and then he remembered that after using the last blow, his hands lost strength, and White Fang fell into the main hall on the second floor.

"Kakashi-sensei, my...!"

Hiiragi turned around and shouted at Kakashi, but when he said this, he paused and immediately changed his words, "I forgot to take your White Fang, it's still in the main hall on the second floor of Daming Mansion!"

Kakashi was stunned when he heard this, then he curled his right eye and smiled, "You can't throw it away if you put it there. When the smoke dissipates and things become clear, Admiral Mifune will naturally find it and return it to us!"

Mifune understood what was going on when he heard this, "Don't worry, as long as the matter is investigated, everything lost will be returned!"

After several people handed over all their weapons and knives to Mifune's guards for safekeeping, they were taken to a house under the supervision of the guards, including His Highness Akabane.

After all, no one can move around at will until things are clear.

Mifune conducted separate interviews with several people before them, and naturally learned about the death of His Highness Aoyu. After the smoke and dust in Daming Mansion dispersed, Mifune immediately went to investigate with his people. At the same time, he also investigated the death of His Highness Aoyu. Recent actions and people close to you.

Hiirato estimated that His Highness originally wanted to pass on the affairs of the town to His Highness Akabane.

After all, if Qingyu's plan had not been disclosed, Akabane would have died because of it now. Then it would be easy to perfect the ending of the matter and put the blame on a dead person.

But obviously, there were a lot of accidents. First, His Highness was extremely courageous and deceived Qingyu. Qingyu had been obsessed with swordsmanship since he was a child, and he was not familiar with his father's habits. It could even be said that he was unfamiliar, so he did this. Fooled!

Secondly, I didn't expect that while wearing two family heirlooms, I would fight with these people for so long, and finally be defeated head-on!

When a conspiracy does not have a perfect ending, it will be easy to reveal the truth. Now His Highness is dead, and Mifune is not a fool. At noon the next day, he quickly investigated what happened. thing.

Despite this, His Highness was finally buried with great grace anyway, and the Kingdom of Iron immediately began to prepare for the daimyo succession ceremony of His Highness Akabane in the evening, in order to calm the panic of the people of the country.

As for Hiiragi and the others, after the matter was found out, they were placed in the best hospital in the Iron Country, where they were able to recuperate peacefully...
