The New Uzumaki Legend of Naruto

Chapter 221 The Kingdom of Iron

Gen Uesugi let out a long sigh and said with loneliness in his eyes.

"My Uesugi family in the Iron Kingdom is famous for being a family of swordsmen, good at using the wind swordsmanship. It has a history of hundreds of years. My current Uesugi family is the current head of the family, and I have a younger sister named Jun Uesugi."

"Is it kendo that has been passed down for hundreds of years? Why does Uesugi-kun look like this?"

Seeing that Gen Uesugi looked like he was telling a story, Menma turned over with one hand, and a jar of old wine with mottled bodies appeared in his palm. He moved his forearm forward and threw it to Gen. Uesugi.

Uesugi Gen took Menma and threw it to the wine jar. After weighing the weight, he used three fingers to remove the red cloth seal. A strong aroma of wine immediately penetrated his nose.

Uesugi Gen approached the mouth of the altar and took a deep breath, showing an intoxicated look, and couldn't help but praise.

"Good wine!"

As he spoke, he held the wine jar with one hand, his throat moved slightly and drank.

This wine has a soft texture in the mouth, with a smooth and continuous aroma. The spicy taste made his eyes light up and he praised it.

"This wine is suitable for us vulgar people to drink. Can I drink it with you, Uzumaki-sama?"

Menma smiled and shook his head.

"The best thing about this terrible whirlpool country is wine. I'm not good at wine, but the stories about people who drink well are good."

"Since Lord Uzumaki wants to hear it, I just have a story."

Uesugi Gen laughed happily, raised the wine bottle to Menma who was standing in mid-air, and then asked

"My lord, do you know that the Iron Kingdom selects generals?"

"Of course I have heard that there are two selection methods. One is that every time the previous general retires, countless Iron Kingdom warriors compete. The winner becomes the new Iron Kingdom general and leads all the Iron Kingdom's martial arts."

Menma saw that Uesugigen's face was calm and continued.

"This is another challenge. Any warrior can challenge a general to a life-and-death fight. The winner will be the new general."

When he heard the word "challenge", Uesugi Gen's calm face showed a trace of sadness.

"Do you know who the last general was?"

This question is difficult to ask. Recently, under the leadership of Kisame, the Intelligence Department of the Country of Uzumaki has a clear understanding of almost all countries, regardless of their length and history.

Menmaya knew a thing or two about how the Iron Kingdom was a thing of the past.

He looked down and saw Gen Uesugi walking forward in the wind, and answered calmly.

"Kenshin Uesugi, was killed in battle 30 years ago. According to rumors, he is known as the Dragon in the Wind. Look at Uesugi-kun, who is your worthy father?"

Seeing that Gen Uesugi's expression became even more sad after hearing the name "Uesugi Kenshin", Menma guessed.

"My true father died in a duel with Admiral Mifune."

Uesugi Gen lamented and continued, "But I don't hate Mifune-sama. He is a respectable human being. Without him, the Iron Country would not be what it is now."

"I hate that this boring world is the world, and I hate that this boring country is the country!"

After saying that, he took a sip of wine, his face full of unwillingness and anger.

Koizumi, who had been listening silently, glanced at Yuan Uesugi with some confusion. Seeing his expression of understanding the world, he asked with confusion.

"Is it because my father died in this selection method?"

Gen Uesugi shook his head, closed his eyes and swallowed the slightly cold wine in his mouth.

"After my father's defeat, all his disciples dispersed in droves. Those samurai families who had been so attentive to the Uesugi family all quickly became alienated in a short period of time.

"Two years later, my mother also died of depression due to this series of events, leaving only my younger sister and me to fend for ourselves."

As he spoke, the veins on Yuan Uesugi's forehead popped out horribly, and his fists were clenched tightly, and you could even hear the sound of the joints rubbing against each other.

"We are people who have received favors from the Uesugi family, but no one was willing to lend a helping hand to us. In the end, Mifune-sama took us in as brothers and sisters."

He tried his best to suppress his emotions, his chest heaved up and down,

"Although it has been many years, I still clearly remember that when my mother took me door to door to find people for help, those people were mocking and gloating in their eyes. They were saved by my father who was desperate for their lives!"

"Hmph, hypocrisy is the world!"

Izumi turned her head and snorted coldly. After Uesugi Yuan's emotional rendering, she also remembered that she was once Konoha and once a member of the Uchiha clan. A trace of disdain flashed in Izumi's eyes, and her face showed an expression of empathy.

"I will not forget the kindness I received from Mifune-sama, but I must avenge myself for killing my father. I don't know where my path will lead."

The sadness on Uesugi Yuan's face gradually dissipated, and instead revealed an unspeakable bitterness.

"Are you willing to join our country of whirlpool?"

Menma recalled the enthusiasm shown by Uesugi Gen when he led the two people out of the checkpoint, and invited Uesugi Gen,

"There seems to be nothing worth remembering for you here. Moreover, the Kingdom of Iron is located in a cold zone. Moving to the Kingdom of Whirlpool is not only an excellent choice for you or your sister."

Gen Uesugi looked stunned, smiled, took a sip of wine and said

"I haven't had this idea for the time being, but I beg you, Lord Uzumaki, to accept me as your sister."

"Can!"

When Menma heard that he was willing to entrust his only sister to the Country of Whirlpool, he understood his intention and readily agreed.

"Then thank you sir in advance. I wonder if you two sirs have a clear goal in visiting the Kingdom of Iron this time?"

Gen Uesugi smiled at Menma with his fists clasped in his hands. At this time, the three of them happened to be walking through the plains and officially entered the Kingdom of Iron.

A rare evergreen coniferous forest is rooted here. There are two spacious dirt roads in different directions in the forest. One extends to the north of the Kingdom of Iron, which is the central area, and the other leads to the South of the Kingdom of Iron, which is the Kingdom of Fire. .

"I heard that twenty years ago, a sword that could control time appeared in the Kingdom of Iron. Has Uesugi-kun heard about it?"

Gen Uesugi stabilized his body, stood at the fork in the road, thought for a moment and said

"Your Majesty, it is said that it is a terrible sword. It is said that anyone who comes within 5 meters of the sword will age and die in a very short period of time."

"Suddenly, is the sword of time passing by in a hurry? Where is this sword stored now?"

Upon hearing the name of this sword, Izumi's eyes lit up and he asked Uesugihara with great interest.

"It is said that this sword was enshrined in a temple facing west of the capital of the Kingdom of Iron. Twenty years ago, countless samurai wanted to obtain this sword, but without exception, they all died in front of the sword in strange behaviors. Since then, No one cares about this sword anymore.

"Master Quan really wants to obtain the Sudden Sword?"

Uesugi Gen suddenly remembered that Izumi Shu is the right way of time, and he suddenly felt enlightened.

"Uesugi-kun, do you know the exact location? We came here to target it this time." Menma saw that Uesugi Gen seemed to know that the sudden sword was hiding information, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"You know, then we should head towards the capital of the country."

Gen Uesugi nodded solemnly, and after saying that, he took up the strong wind, followed by two people floating in the air, and flew towards the hinterland of the Iron Country.
