Naruto: The man is in the Senju, but the Sharingan

Chapter 73 The Daimyo's Purpose

[Master, those two people above are looking at you...] An ugly voice sounded in Senju Jingchuan's mind.

Due to the inequality between the status of ninja and daimyo, Senju Kagamigawa followed the advice of Senju Tobirama and kept his head down and did not look up during the salute. But the ugly monster was not bound by this and told Senju Kagamigawa everything he saw.

"Mr. Tobirama, I haven't seen you for a long time. You seem to have become more stable and mature." Kiyosu Kasugayama looked at Senju Tobirama with a smile.

Senju Tobirama also put on a smiling face and responded politely to Kiyosu Kasugayama's "concern" for him.

After the two of them exchanged pleasantries for a long time, Kiyosu Kasugayama seemed to notice Senju Kagawa and looked him over from head to toe, then asked:

"Tobirama-kun, is this your younger brother? He looks very similar to you..."

"I heard that Kagamikawa-kun is quite accomplished in medical ninjutsu, and he even played a decisive role in the war on the battlefield before..." Kiyosu Kasugayama was still smiling, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Senju Jingchuan thought to himself—it’s finally here.

[I don't know what this old fox is thinking, but he pretends to be nice to me on the surface.] Qianshou Jingchuan snorted in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface.

"Lord Kasugayama, you are too kind. I am just a medical ninja. All I can do is to treat the wounded. How can I play a decisive role in the battle?" Senju Kagawa used honorifics, but his words were very sharp. It was obvious that he did not accept the high hat that Kiyosu Kasugayama put on him.

Kiyosu Kasugayama just smiled and said nothing more.

[As expected of master and servant, they are both smiling tigers...] Senju Kagamikawa couldn't help but complain in his heart when he saw the identical smiles of Kiyosu Kasugayama and Kiyosu Sosuke.

"Hmph!" A cold snort was heard. Senju Kagawa looked up and found that the voice came from the uncle next to Kiyosu Kasugayama.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce you." Kiyosu Kasugayama suddenly said as if he had suddenly realized something. A hint of apology appeared on his face. He said:

"This is the minister I have a great liking for—Fujiwara Taira."

"Come to think of it, Kagamigawa-kun seemed to have taken on a mission to escort Fujiwara-kun's wife before." Kiyosu Kasugayama added the second half of the sentence with a smile.

This time, although Kiyosu Kasugayama still kept smiling, he looked at Senju Kagawa with sharp eyes, as if he was observing Senju Kagawa's reaction.

As for the Thousand Hands Mirror River...

Senju Jingchuan naturally reacted, but he was not really a five-year-old child after all, so he would not show his thoughts on his face - especially when facing the daimyo who had a thousand eyes.

After hearing what Kiyosu Kasugayama said, Senju Kagawa was stunned for a moment, then he thought for a while as if confused, and then he clenched his right fist and knocked it on the palm of his left hand as if he suddenly realized something, with an innocent expression that a child should have.

Qian Shou Jing Chuan asked tentatively, "Is it that noble lady?"

After saying this, the white-haired child seemed to think that the "noble lady" he had mentioned was too general. So, he gestured in a panic and said:

"Yes, that is the very pretty lady - the lady in the kimono."

The five-year-old child was in a panic and finally lowered his head and sighed, as if he was disappointed that he could not describe the appearance of the noble lady well.

Kiyosu Kasugayama couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw Senju Kagawa like this.

"Hahaha, Tobirama-kun, your younger brother is so adorable, he really wins my heart..." There was an ambiguous light flashing in Kiyosu Kasugayama's eyes, and he motioned to Kiyosu Sosuke beside him to hand the box in his hand to Senju Kagawa.

"But, what a pity... Mrs. Fujiwara unfortunately fell ill after arriving at her hometown, and even Mr. Fujiwara's six-year-old child unfortunately passed away..." Kiyosu Kasugayama continued to speak the "bad news".

At this time, Kiyosu Sosuke had already walked in front of Senju Kagawa and handed the exquisite box to Senju Kagawa.

After hearing what Kiyosu Kasugayama said, Senju Kagawa's heart skipped a beat and he took the box.

"Ah? How could this happen? Mrs. Fujiwara and Xiaoxi were very kind to me, but I didn't expect that they would..." Senju Kagawa looked reluctant, as if he was feeling sorry for the two lives that were lost.

No matter what, Senju Kagamigawa must completely clear himself from the death of Fujiwara no Madam and Fujiwara Nozomi. Who knows what Kiyosu Kasugayama wants to do by bringing up this matter now? No matter what, this matter cannot involve Senju Kagamigawa - it cannot involve the Senju clan.

"Yeah, what a pity..." Kiyosu Kasugayama sighed with regret.

Then, he turned his gaze to Fujiwara Taira, whose face was a little stiff, and said, "Fujiwara-kun is deeply concerned about the death of his wife and son, and has never been able to let it go. Seeing Kagamikawa-kun's child this big, Fujiwara-kun may have thought of Xiaoxi's child again, so he may be in a bad mood..."

Regardless of whether they knew the truth of the matter or not, Senju Jingchuan and his companions all showed sadness at the right time, which was absolutely impeccable - it must be said that although the people of the Senju clan were relatively thick-skinned by nature, they were still very reliable at critical moments, not only would they not let down their guard but they would also unite against the enemy.

"Kamigawa-kun, you and I are destined to be together. The box contains a treasure given to you. I invited Kagawa-kun to come here this time because I wanted to observe closely what a young and promising ninja like you is like."

"I hope Kagamigawa-kun won't mind my lack of courtesy." Kiyosu Kasugayama nodded to Senju Kagamigawa with a gentle tone. If someone didn't know him, they might really think that Kiyosu Kasugayama was a daimyo who loved talented people.

Senju Kagawa was impeccable in terms of etiquette, and he argued with Kiyosu Kasugayama for a few more words. In the end, Kiyosu Kasugayama was the first to give in and revealed his true purpose:

"Tobirama-kun, Kagamigawa-kun, I invited you here this time because I have some selfish reasons of my own."

"During this period, the Land of Fire has not been peaceful. The Daimyo of the Land of Lightning has sent ninjas to assassinate me many times..." When Kiyosu Kasugayama said this, a hint of fear appeared on his face.

"My warriors were all injured in the assassination, and many of them were killed. The only ones I can trust are you Senju Ninjas." Kiyosu Kasugayama looked at Senju Kagawa and others with a sincere expression.

To be honest, when Senju Kagawa saw Kiyosu Kasugayama's expression, he actually felt a bit of "protective desire".

"This time, perhaps an Uchiha ninja will come."

"Tobirama-kun, can I trust you?" Kiyosu Kasugayama stated his guess just right and put himself in a completely weak position.
