As soon as Shimura and Tanzo appeared, Yamaguchi's eyes narrowed.
"Humph, you've really picked up a treasure to have such a good nephew. Don't worry, with you around, I can't kill him.”Yamaguchi saw that Shimura had appeared in front of Qi Yuefeng, protecting him like a treasure, afraid that he would hurt him. He could not help but snort coldly and say angrily.
Shimura Tanzo did not reply to him. He only glanced around and saw the ninjas on his side, as well as Iwannin and Yanin who were about to be wiped out. He could not help but say coldly,""Why, are you still not leaving? Do you want to leave something behind before you stop?”
"Brat, what's your name?" The white-robed man ignored Tuan Zang and narrowed his eyes at Qi Yue Feng. Aoki Yu, who was behind him, was drenched in cold sweat. He was completely stunned.
" Me…" He couldn't feel any killing intent or pressure, but he still had a lingering fear in his heart. In front of the white-robed man, Qi Yuefeng was constantly on guard. Without strength, he was nothing in front of this man…
" Stop playing with him. Tell him your name. I believe that it won't be long before your name spreads throughout the entire Ninja Realm.”Shimura smiled at Kaede Saki. He had high hopes for him.
Looking at the warm smile on Shimura Tanzo's face, Kaede Saki could not reconcile it with the sinister and ugly face of Tanzo in the anime decades later. Nodding solemnly, he turned to the man in white and said,"Listen up, this young master is called Qi Yuefeng.”
" Kaede Qi Yue, Kaede Qi Yue…" Watching him mumble to himself, Shimura Tanzou stared at him coldly, wary of his every move.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!" Swoosh!
The elites brought by Takashi Kazuki and Kazuki Kazuki had also arrived. Their arrival meant that they had already killed all the enemies.
"As expected, you've mobilized a large number of troops.”The white-robed man looked at the more and more Leaf Ninjas that appeared. They surrounded the battlefield, and his heart sank. He said the same thing again, but this time, his expression was strange. At first, he was mocking them. He was mocking that Tuan Zang had brought so few people with him, but now, he was completely wiped out.
Seeing the appearance of those Muye ninjas, Yamaguchi knew that his subordinates were probably going to die.
"Shimura Tanzou, I lost today, but not in your hands. I lost in the schemes of you and your nephew. The next time we meet, I will definitely compete with you.”
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for a reply from Shimura. He grabbed Aoki Yu and flew away. In the forest, a white shadow flashed and quickly disappeared.
"Don't let him escape!" Seeing the enemy flee, one of the elite troops under the regiment treasury shouted and immediately chased after him.
However, he was stopped by a cold shout. "Stop chasing."
"Yes, Lord Tuanzang." Don't pursue a desperate enemy. Naturally, Shimura understood this principle. As the leader, if he didn't ask them to stop their pursuit, it would mean that he had acquiesced to their pursuit. However, it would be very difficult for them to stop Yamaguchi Junto.
Even if he could do it, he would definitely suffer heavy losses.
"Lord Tuan Zang." Two black shadows flew over. Matsuta Jiuduan and Nishino Chong knelt on one knee in front of Shimura Tanzo. They looked respectful as if they were worshipping a god.
"This mission is very outstanding. When we return, we will definitely reward you.”Shimura waved his hand, signaling them to get up.
"Thank you, sir." The two of them had been following Shimura Tanzou for a long time, so they naturally stood up. However, there was no joy on their faces because they knew that if it wasn't for Shimura Tanzou's arrival, they would have been doomed.
However, even if the group trove had rushed over, they had suffered heavy losses.
In the beginning, apart from the two of them, there were also 44 ninjas. Among them, there were 20 elites from the main division and 24 from the two small teams of the Dark Group.
Now, there were only nine elites and thirteen members of the Dark Group left. They had just lost half of their numbers.
Matsuta Jiuduan and Nishino Chong both knew that the reason why Tuanzang did not blame them was because they had been following him for a long time. Furthermore, they had killed hundreds of enemies in this battle, and their merits outweighed their faults.
"Your merits are greater than your faults. Merits should be rewarded, and faults must be punished. Since Uncle already thinks that your merits and faults can be offset and you are even rewarded, then you are naturally meritorious.”Qi Yuefeng seemed to have seen through their thoughts and spoke up.
"Thank you, Young Master." The two of them bowed and cupped their fists at Qi Yuefeng, expressing their gratitude respectfully. Their expressions were filled with sincerity and respect.
"Lord Tanzo, the ninjas from the Moon Country have come to help. The leader of the Moon Ninja Village has also arrived.”A figure rushed over and knelt on one knee in front of Tuan Zang as he spoke to the latter.
"Moon Country?" Hearing these three words, Shimura Tanzou frowned slightly.
"You came just in time." Kaede sneered. Even if all the ninjas of the Moon Country gathered in the capital, they would only take a few hours to get here. Logically speaking, the news of Matsuta Jiuduan and the others being surrounded should have been sent back long ago.
However, their reinforcements had yet to arrive. During this period of time, it was really not a misunderstanding.
It was no wonder that our Young Master Feng would laugh coldly and not have a good impression of this country.
"Let him come in and see me."
"Yes, my lord."
Shimura asked his subordinates to bring the leader of the Moon Country to see him. Then, he turned around and said to Qi Yuefeng,""The leader of the Moon Country is quite loyal to me. I think it's that stupid daimyo of the Moon Country who stopped him from coming here to rescue me.”
Qi Yuefeng nodded.
Zhimun Tanzou was right, and there was no mistake at all. The Moon Country was famous for being incompetent and sickly. Even his son was sickly.
In just a short while, a lean middle-aged man was brought over by a subordinate of Tuan Zang.
This man had a thin face, but his face looked a little depressed. There was a pair of eyes that occasionally flashed with a faint light. His sharp eyes made him look extremely shrewd.
"What a crafty and cunning person." Qi Yuefeng thought to himself as he stared at him…
This person was the leader of the Moon Ninja Village in the Moon Nation, Otsuki Harada. He was an ally of Tanzo. Although they were allies, they were actually more like a master and subordinate relationship.
