Chapter 57 Hatake Sakumo’s choice

In the dark night, sparks flew everywhere, and the invisible slash almost shattered the hard stone floor.

clang clang clang clang

The two daggers made an extremely fierce collision sound, as if they were about to play a fierce piece of music in the courtyard of the castle tower.

Kakashi's sword is faster than the other. This is a concept he learned from Uchiha Yoichi. If the enemy can only defend against a slash, then he doesn't have to defend himself.

However, when facing this enemy, Kakashi felt a little powerless. Every one of his swords was seen through by the opponent and blocked accurately.

'This is impossible! ’

Kakashi couldn't believe it. He was a chuunin and had been practicing for so long. How could he be so powerless in front of an enemy?

It was like practicing swordsmanship with my father at home.

After the fight, Hatake Sakumo confirmed that the guard of the castle tower must be his son Kakashi. He has both wind and thunder sword skills, and only his Hatake family has them in the entire ninja world.

‘I’ve made progress, Kakashi, but now is not the time to discuss and advise with you! ’

Hatake Sakumo thought of his teammates who helped him delay in the main court, and made an instant decision in his mind.

The short sword swept across and slashed three times in a row.

One strike forced Kakashi to hold his sword up to block it. The second strike almost made him lose his hand with his short sword. As for the third strike,

Kakashi couldn't hold the short sword in his hand, and was slashed away by Hatake Sakumo.

Bang!

With a kick, Kakashi was kicked away by Hatake Sakumo.

Since he secretly came out to do the mission, he must have the consciousness of a ninja. Although Hatake Sakumo would not kill his son, it was still okay to leave a deep impression on him.

After kicking Kakashi away, Hatake Sakumo quickly rushed towards the castle tower. Just after entering the Daming Palace, Yamanaka Ryosuke happened to capture the official of the Daming Palace of River Country and got an important piece of information from him. .

The daimyo of the River Country has been changing places to rest every night recently, and today he just happened to change to the castle tower. This news was only known to the daimyo's internal officials and the daimyo's five personal samurai guards.

After Kakashi was knocked away, Hatake Sakumo quickly rushed towards Uchiha Yoichi. There were only two of them guarding outside the castle tower. He was ready to deal with it quickly, and then went inside to kill the daimyo of River Country.

Uchiha Yoichi guessed that this person was Hatake Sakumo. He had just turned on his Sharingan to observe, and found that Hatake Sakumo's sword skills were somewhat similar to Kakashi's, and he failed to kill him several times, and finally Kakashi was killed. Cassie's dagger flew away and she just kicked it away.

At this time, he saw Hatake Sakumo rushing toward him. He quickly drew his sword, and thunder and lightning wrapped around the sword like a snake.

Clang!

The blades collided with a crisp sound, and fire splashed everywhere. The thunder escape entanglement on Uchiha Yoichi's body was quickly cut away by the invisible wind blade.

'If it is really Hatake Sakumo, then his mission is to assassinate the daimyo of River Country'

After a exchange of blows and confirmation of identity, Uchiha Yoichi decided to quit.

At this place and time, there was no point in fighting Hatake Sakumo. Although he really wanted to learn the real White Fang sword technique, the time and occasion were not right.

As for the commission from the Daimyo of River Country?

If the mission fails, it will only be blamed on the underground money exchange. What does Uchiha Yoichi have to do with him?

Clang!

With another slash, Uchiha Yoichi used his strength to draw the knife away, and at the same time revealed his Sharingan. In the dark night, a pair of blood-red pupils were particularly conspicuous.

Hatake Sakumo was slightly surprised when he saw this, but he also knew why his son appeared here.

After Uchiha Yoichi retreated, Hatake Sakumo immediately rushed into the castle tower. Not long after, a panicked shout came from inside: "Someone, come quickly!"

"This bastard is really hiding in here. When did he get in?"

Uchiha Yang shook his head, and then rushed to Kakashi's side to see how he was doing; this time the entrustment bounty was considered a failure, and he could not get the twelve million.

But he couldn't come here in vain, otherwise he wouldn't be able to earn a dime for half a month away from the village. He didn't come here in vain.

After Kakashi was helped up, he covered his chest and asked, "Captain, why didn't you stop that man just now?"

"Things are very complicated. I'll tell you after I leave here. Come with me now."

Before Uchiha Yoichi finished speaking, a dozen figures appeared on the wall of the castle tower courtyard instantly.

"Konoha White Fang, come out! Your teammates have been caught by us, even if you kill the Daimyo of River Country, it will be useless!"

Fujiweirou of Sand Ninja Village shouted loudly. He was originally lying in ambush in the main courtyard waiting for Konoha's people to take the bait, but he didn't expect that one of the people who came this time was Konoha White Fang, and Konoha White Fang also knew where the name of the River Country was hiding. at.

Fortunately, they captured the remaining Konoha ninja alive and rushed over quickly.

As for the Daimyo of the River Country, Fujiweirou didn't care much. It didn't matter whether he was alive or dead. Anyway, it was the Daimyo of the River Country who was assassinated by the Konoha ninja. No matter what, it was their Sand Ninja Village who made the profit.

"Captain, is it the father?"

Kakashi asked in a low voice. Now that he understood, it was no wonder that no matter how he used the sword, he was easily blocked.

Uchiha Yoichi signaled Kakashi to stop talking. This situation was a bit troublesome. It would not be difficult for them to escape, but Hatake Sakumo was a little hung up.

It would be too difficult for Hatake Sakumo to escape now, unless he killed everyone here; but this is not realistic, there are so many people on the other side, it is hard to say whether he will win or lose.

After a while, Hatake Sakumo walked out of the house, and beside him was the trembling Daimyo of River Country.

The scene where Hatake Sakumo rushed in and killed everyone just now really frightened the Daimyo of River Country. Even now, he is still a little scared and can't speak.

A few minutes ago, he was holding the head of the samurai guard in his arms, and he almost died.

"Fujikuro, release my teammates!"

Hatake Sakumo said. After saying this, it basically meant that he admitted the identity mentioned by Tokuro and gave up the mission.

Several other teammates were immediately anxious when they saw this, but they were speechless; however, they knew how important this mission was, and they could just give up on them now, kill the name of the River Country and leave.

Anyway, they didn't have anything on them to prove their identity, and Hatake Sakumo could even find an opportunity to destroy their bodies.

However, Hatake Sakumo obviously would not choose this method. He believed that companions were more important than the mission.

His beliefs and principles have never changed from the beginning!

"Okay, let's change."

After thinking about it for a while, Tokuro decided that it would be better to keep the Daimyo of the River Country alive. If a new Daimyo were chosen, his attitude towards Suna Ninja Village would still be uncertain, but now this Daimyo would definitely hate Konoha.

Now that the Daimyo of the River Country is rescued, the power of Sand Ninja Village will expand to the River Country, and its strongholds and metal resources will be greatly expanded.

"Let them go and let them come over!"

"Stop playing tricks, Konoha White Fang, and let them go at the same time, otherwise none of you will be able to live without each other."

Tokuro refused directly and said that if he released the person, the other party might also attack the Daimyo of River Country; but if he didn't let the person go, Konoha White Fang would not let the Daimyo go either. The best result would be to release the person at the same time.

At this time, Uchiha Yoichi suddenly stood up, pretending to be anxious and shouted loudly: "You bastards, don't trade the life of the daimyo, give the daimyo to me!"
