"Young Master, we should go back. If we stay here any longer..."

"No, I don't want to go back. Everyone is fighting on the front line, how can I hide in the back alone?"

Squirrel Danzo walked around the alley, and a young young man who was guarded by several warriors in the alley caught his attention.

"Young Master, Madam has issued an order, asking us to take you back as soon as possible. If you disobey the order, we..."

Hearing the words of the leading guard, the young master was confused:

"Why are you going back at this time? Shouldn't we deploy guards from the inner city to strengthen our defense?"

"Even if I don't do this, as long as I stay in the outer city, I can definitely boost everyone's fighting spirit."

Before the young master finished speaking, the leading guard lowered his voice.

"The city lord and his wife intend to evacuate overnight, so we must quickly join up with the warriors in the inner city."

Unexpectedly, the Lord of Zhuqiu City and his wife were quite smart.

After hearing the plans of the Lord of Takeoka from the guards, Danzo couldn't help but feel a little fond of the Lord who he had yet to meet.

Indeed, if people survive and lose land, both people and land will survive. "

“If you save the land, you will lose the people; if you save the land, you will lose both the people and the land.”

Keep the backbone of the Fire Nation here so that after the Ninja War is over, the Fire Nation's rule here can be effectively restored.

Danzo thought this and was about to pull away when the young master's sad roar attracted his attention again.

"How can we escape without fighting? We are the protectors here! We escaped, what will happen to the people who are still here?"

Oh, so young.

Danzo only thought it was ridiculous when he heard what the young master said.

The people here were originally destroyed by the Fire Country. Even if they had no loyalty to the daimyo who ruled them, do they have any loyalty to the Fire Country?

Besides, so what if I stay here.The combined local garrison strength of the four outer cities is less than [-]. Even if we add the one or two hundred warriors in the inner city, there is no chance of winning against Tian Zhiguo's cavalry and musket phalanx.

Like Danzo, the leading guard responded in the same way after listening to his young master's words.

"Master, with our current strength, we cannot defeat the Tian Kingdom army outside the city. This is an obvious fact."

"At this time, we can't care about others, we can only take care of ourselves first."

But what surprised Danzo and the guards was that after hearing these words, the young master still did not give up.

"Ueno, I remember that you are not from the original Fire Country, are you Maruyama and Samoto? You are also locals, aren't you?"

"You are my own."

"Why aren't they the people from the outer city?"

After hearing what the young master said, everyone whose name was called earlier lowered their heads, but soon Ueno raised his head again.

"Master, you gave me this life. Without you, I would have starved to death on the roadside."

"I can stay, but you have to go"

After saying this, Ueno grabbed the young master's sleeve and stuffed him into the arms of Maruyama and Samoto who were standing by.

"Let go of me, let go of me"

The young master kept struggling and managed to break away from the arms of the two people who were protecting him.

Ueno didn't notice for a moment, but the young master ran out of the alley.

Everyone wanted to chase him with knives, but they didn't expect that the young master stopped at the entrance of the alley, turned around and yelled into the alley.

"I am the son of the Lord of Zhuqiu City, and I have the responsibility of guarding the land and bringing peace to the people."

"As a warrior of the Fire Nation, there is absolutely no reason to escape alone while others are still fighting in the outer city."

"I shall live and die together with this city."

Hearing the words of the young master beside him, Danzo suddenly felt a little ashamed.

“An eight-year-old child doesn’t have the strength to tie a chicken, but he still has the heart to protect the people and his country;

I, Danzo Shimura, am twenty-five and possess ninja skills, am I still no match for a child?"

"Who, who's talking"

Before he finished speaking, Danzo had released his transformation technique and was standing upright next to the young master of Zhuqiu City.

"Quick, protect the young master"

The guards came with swords drawn, but Danzo had no intention of fighting with them. Instead, he turned his body towards the young master, rubbed his hair, and asked in a deep voice.

"I have a plan to repel the enemy soldiers."

"Are you willing to listen?"

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

His thoughts returned to the afternoon of the previous day. Danzo looked at the Tianzhi team under the city wall that had been breached everywhere, with a faint smile on his lips.

"Kids always do that."

"Young, energetic, and believe in some good things in life."

"They never learn to consider reality from the perspective of interests."

"However, even as an adult, I am accustomed to using interests as the basis for formulating action plans. I still occasionally act emotionally."

After saying this, Danzo took out the sword from his waist and discarded the sheath on the ground.

"Konoha ninja, Danzo Shimura, please join us."

The wind-like figure jumped down from the three-meter-high stone wall, and the shining sword light kept flashing among the Tian Kingdom army.

Even though some warriors of Tian Country recovered from the chaos, they intended to form formations to protect themselves.

Soon they were defeated by the knife-wielding Danzo who was fighting from left to right.

The great name of Tian Zhiguo looked at the chaotic military situation in front of him and was anxious.

"Quick, everyone go up and supervise the battle. Don't let them retreat anymore."

"Organize a counterattack, counterattack"

Just when the Daimyo of Ta no Kuni even sent his personal bodyguards to the battle line, shouting hoarsely, he tried to stabilize his position.

The shouts and shouts along the front line gradually merged into a common voice.

"Our army is defeated, our army is defeated"

As soon as these words came out, Tian Zhishi, who was still relatively stable, collapsed like a landslide.

The peasants and soldiers on the front line abandoned their weapons and ran away, following the paths in the forest like rabbits.

If they are lucky, they will return to their villages safely and wait for the next call.

Some warriors from the Kingdom of Tian who were responsible for supervising the battle were not prepared to give up. They chopped down several peasant soldiers who wanted to escape with their swords.

But how can the will of a few people defeat the fear of the majority of people.

The peasants and soldiers who were eager to escape held spears in their hands and pierced the bodies of these usually aloof warriors with a hundred times more cruelty than they would treat their enemies.

After a while, the samurai who hacked their own people with swords disappeared like stones in the tsunami.

Seeing the scene in front of him, the daimyo of Tiannokuni felt only despair in his heart.

"My countrymen misunderstood me"

He drew out the sword from his waist and intended to kill himself, but was discovered in time by the members of the musketeers beside him.

For a moment, those who grabbed the knife grabbed the knife, and those who hugged the waist hugged the waist.

"Hurry up and escort His Highness to mount your horse."

"I'll break it off"

The captain of the musketry team gave this order, and the team members rushed to put their names on the horses.

Dozens of horseback warriors who had retreated from the front had arrived in time and hurriedly protected His Highness as he ran along the river.

Seeing the invincible enemy army disintegrating before their eyes, the blood-soaked warriors in Zhuqiu City laughed heartily.

After laughing, a unified shout, led by a little figure of only eight years old, sounded among them.

"Shimura Danzo"

"Shimura Danzo"

"Shimura Danzo"

Listening to the roar of the enemy troops in the distance, the Daimyo of Ta no Kuni walked farther and farther, and the name of this person he had never met was deeply engraved in his heart.

"Shimura Danzo, today's humiliation,

In the future, I will pay you back a hundredfold."
