On the twelfth day, in the land of rain, Pingcheng.

Under the curtain of rain, Itachi brought hundreds of ninjas who had graduated early to the foot of Pingcheng.

"Remember, don't be obsessed with fighting. Our main task is to rescue the literati in the city who are willing to support the Republic."

In fact, the mission is more than that. For him, there is another mission, liberating Pingcheng.

Itachi looked at these young people with some emotion. Although he himself was not ten years old, the strength of the two was vastly different.

If it weren't for the purpose of training these people, he would be enough to rescue the scholar and liberate Pingcheng alone.

After all, these people have to graduate early and go to the battlefield. The total training time is less than one year. Strictly speaking, they are not even genin. They can deal with ordinary people, but it may be difficult to deal with strictly trained samurai.

However, Gao Ming was wealthy and equipped them with the most sophisticated equipment, ranging from armored ninja swords to potion detonating charms.

Everyone nodded silently. There were still people patrolling the city, and they did not dare to make too much noise.

It was the first time to go on a mission, and everyone was very nervous and full of pressure.

But they obviously haven't realized how strong their captain is.

"Lord Itachi, do we want to fight directly?"

Someone asked, everyone was nervous and looked around.

"You guys wait here, I'll come back as soon as I can."

Itachi shook his head, looked at the defenders on the city wall, whispered an order, and then used the teleportation technique to leave.

After seeing this, everyone lay down one after another. After receiving the order, they all breathed a sigh of relief and felt inexplicably relieved.

...

...

"Hey, I don't know when this day will end."

On the city wall, several people stationed on the beacon tower were chatting, but their eyes were still looking around without stopping.

This is the Kingdom of Rain, a place of constant chaos. Naturally, such a large city has been targeted by countless bandits. These warriors have no strength to protect the stability of this city.

"I heard that the Akatsuki organization over there took over Yuyin Village. I heard about that Akatsuki organization. It was pretty good. They had dealt with all the bandits and rebel ninjas. I thought I could live a stable life, but I didn't expect the name It’s really bad to create another republic.”

"Hey, we are so close to the front line. Those are ninjas. We might be gone one day."

"We should be fine. I heard that people in the Republic only kill nobles. We are just paid to work. There is no need to target us, right?"

"That's it, the three thousand ninja army were all killed, so what if they just killed a few more ordinary people like us?"

"Let's appoint them. We're not even ninjas, so what else can we do? When the time comes to surrender, maybe they'll be in a good mood and let us live."

"Hahaha, that makes sense~"

Everyone laughed, and the originally sad topic suddenly became cheerful.

"Why are you arguing? Don't hurry up and patrol!"

The sound of scolding came, and everyone looked at each other, dispersed, and continued patrolling at their respective posts.

Beside them, Itachi had been standing here for a long time, but everyone ignored him as if he didn't exist.

[It seems that the reputation of the Republic here is not very good. 】

Itachi listened to their conversation quietly, and after they left, red eyes flashed in his eyes, and several people actually gathered together again and came to the city.

Itachi ignored it and continued walking towards another patrol. In just a moment, all eight patrols gathered behind the city gate.

When Itachi came to the city, everyone immediately opened the city gate and let him out, and then the ninja who had been waiting for a long time carefully entered the city gate.

"This is!"

Everyone thought that the defenders here would either be massacred by Weasel in a bloody massacre, or that they would all be knocked unconscious and subdued by him in secret. However, they did not expect that these people would stand on both sides to greet them.

"These people have been trapped by my illusion. Go into the city first. They will take you to the cell to rescue them. I will wait for you outside the city lord's mansion."

Itachi had no intention of sneaking away after rescuing people. Instead of rescuing a few unimportant scholars, he had to consider how to liberate Heicheng, because this was the task assigned to him by Nagato, and rescuing people was just for the purpose of experiencing new life. By the way.

No one asked any questions. Itachi was their captain and they only had to obey orders.

The two sides separated, Itachi quietly sent a clone to follow them, and then arrived outside the city lord's palace with the help of the leading party.

Itachi looked up at the soldiers patrolling outside the city lord's palace and turned away. A quarter of an hour later, the tents in various military camps lit up one after another, and the army stationed in the city slowly gathered outside the city lord's palace.

In less than half an hour, Itachi had found all the officials in the city who had the power to mobilize troops, and talked with each other one by one, winning over, dividing, and suppressing. This was what Gao Ming had taught him, and Nagato also told him that this liberation should not be caused by The ninjas took the lead, but people who cared about the republic's cause took the initiative. They were just here to help.

Afterwards, Itachi followed the army and surrounded the city lord's palace.

The huge movement woke up the sleeping city lord. He put on his armor in a panic and came to the wall to look at the army gathering below, feeling puzzled and desperate.

"Are you going to rebel? The daimyo-sama's ninja army is right ahead. You are tired of living!"

But no one is destined to respond.

Under the city, Itachi calmly looked at the city lord who was shouting above. Pingcheng was successfully captured, and the rest needed to be left to the 'revolutionary army' behind him.

Behind him were six officers in high positions, looking at each other with bitterness in their eyes.

Looking around, there should have been more than a dozen officers at the same level as them, but now it seems that they failed to understand the beauty of the Republic in time, rejected the glory of the Republic, and were still willing to act as lackeys of feudalism and capital, so they were humanely destroyed. .

"Lord City Lord, I'm sorry. The world has been suffering for a long time. We have secretly surrendered to the Republic for a long time. For the sake of... the people, we can't let you go! Come on!"

The six people looked at each other, and the older one stepped forward and shouted. As his order was issued, the army behind him hesitated for a moment and slowly stepped forward.

"You! What are you going to do? The Daimyo's ninja army is right in front. When they find out, they won't let you go. Now retreat, and I can pretend that nothing happened!"

Everyone shook their heads. They were not children. They could only betray once or countless times. There was no chance of turning back.

At this moment, the door to the city lord's palace suddenly opened, and dozens of guards walked out and half-knelt in front of the army.

"We are also willing to join the Republic, we dedicate the city, and please forgive us!"

The army stopped, and Itachi was stunned for a moment, looking towards the city.

Not only him, but the six people also subconsciously raised their heads and looked behind the city lord.

"You guys, what are you doing? You are so presumptuous. I am the city lord and the uncle of the daimyo. The daimyo will not let you go!"

Sure enough, as they expected, the city lord who just raised his head was already bundled up by the guards behind him and taken towards the city.

But Itachi doesn't care about this, because the mission gives freedom!

[But what does it mean to be liberated? 】

He fell into deep thought. He had thought about this problem all the way, but he couldn't figure it out.

"Sir, we met those who came out of the cell at the city gate."

"Well, bring them here."
