Ninja is a profession that is constantly on the go.

Uchiha Chen had this realization even before he graduated from the Ninja Academy.

Therefore, although Daimyo's Capital is a completely unfamiliar place, he still forced himself to adapt to the environment here early.

But there is a difference between working as a bodyguard when going out and being a ninja in the village. The latter does not have to look at people's faces and is more arbitrary.

Of course, it was Konoha Ninja who had a reputation for being evil. Naturally, no one dared to give him a hard time. It was just Daimyo who treated him differently, which at least made the other Guardian Ninja feel grudged.

The young man was very aware of the fire, but he was too lazy to respond. Daimyo's Capital is destined not to be a place to stay for a long time. There is no need for him to go there for some passers-by and shake his body to make the ninjas from all over the world bow their heads and worship him.

So, not wanting to cause trouble, he pulled Fire Temple Jikū through, and together with Mikoto and Himeji, the four of them formed a team.

Speaking of which, Guardian Ninja's duty is very simple, which is to protect Daimyo.

Occasionally, it's Konoha's responsibility to take care of the security around Daimyo's Capital, no matter what.

Everyone knows this.

Time passed in such a calm and stable atmosphere.

Uchiha Chen, in addition to practicing every day, patrols leisurely. As for Hidden Mist Village, except for contacting Shinnosuke at the beginning, he completely let it go.

Regardless of whether Madara came for him or not, he had already made up his mind to hide in Daimyo's Capital and not give the old immortal any chance to display any conspiracy.

Even if he senses something is wrong, he will immediately escape with Mikoto and Himeji and escape back to Konoha.

He doesn't want to become the second Obito.

In October, the marigolds in the city were blooming exceptionally brightly, and a note appeared inexplicably on the table in Uchiha Chen's room.

The boy who returned to the room picked up the paper and glanced at it, only to find two words scrawled on it. "Help me!"

Although the handwriting was crooked and it looked like it was written in a hurry, he still recognized the handwriting of Odaichi at a glance.

Inexplicably, he remembered the rumor that had been circulating recently: Oda Clan was going to marry Azai Clan.

The object of marriage is Odaichi.

Speaking of which, this eldest lady of the Oda Clan has also reached the age of marriage. How many families are eager to marry this Daimyo's Capital most beautiful woman. Not to mention her prominent family background, just with her outstanding beauty, it is profitable to marry her as a vase.

Finally, Oda Nobuhide, the father of Odaichi, took a fancy to Azai Hisamasa.

This is undoubtedly a well-matched family-style marriage, at least that's what those ordinary people who like to gossip in their spare time think so.

However, the girl who always likes to carry a long knife and looks like Samurai, but has never killed anyone, doesn't think so.

Odaichi hated this kind of arranged marriage. The thought of having a flash marriage with a man she had only met a few times made her feel sick.

However, it doesn't matter what she thinks. After all, this is a feudal society. She is a girl in a big family, so what does her own wish mean?

The boy glanced at the note, rubbed it and threw it in the trash can, thinking that it was none of my business.

On weekdays, Daimyo's daughter Tamako comes to play with him. Occasionally, the eldest lady also hangs out with him, so it would be false to say that they are not familiar with each other, but so what... He can't take Guardian Ninja to snatch the bride, can he?

Not to mention the dishonest reputation, if you are not careful, it may cause a political incident, which will affect your official career.

As for Sakumo's lifelong event... let's go on a blind date honestly.

Anyway, during the communication, White Fang, who couldn't beat him with three sticks, didn't say that he liked this apprentice.

Moreover, it was him who wanted to steal the bride. Uchiha Chen What the hell is going on?

Time passed quickly like this, and one evening at the end of October, Uchiha Chen, Mikoto, Himeji, and Jikū completed their patrol mission. The four of them separated at a corner and each returned to their room.

The young man was about to take off his windbreaker and take a shower when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

After opening the door, the haggard face of Odaichi appeared.

This time was different from usual. The Daimyo's Capital Sheriff was not carrying the knife that she kept with her day and night, and her clothes were not as masculine as before. Instead, she was wearing the most standard kimono, wearing a golden step on her head. Behind her were four Samurai bodyguards.

"Well, I'm getting married next month. These invitations are sent to you. As a distinguished guest of Konoha, you must attend on time."

Ignoring the other person's hint of winking, Uchiha Chen said with a smile on his face, "Congratulations, congratulations on the birth of your son."

Odaichi cast a murderous look.

The young man's face is as thick as a city wall.

At this moment, an anxious cry suddenly came from the distance, "We're in trouble, come here, help."

Odaichi suddenly changed his color and said hurriedly to his four followers, "It's the voice of Princess Tamako, hurry up and save people!" "

The four of them hesitated for a moment, but none of them moved.

"Hurry up, do you think I'm going to put out a fire in this outfit? If something happens, you will all die!"

Go quickly, I'm here and I won't run away. "

I don't know if the last sentence had an effect. The four of them looked at each other and hurriedly ran towards the place where the sound came from.

Seeing the four people leaving, the young man squinted his eyes and smiled, "Sister Aichi, if you want to run away now, just run away. I'll pretend I didn't see you. Don't waste the opportunity Tamako created for you."

Odaichi said angrily, "You can't even get out of the door at this time... I asked Tamako to send you a letter before, why didn't you reply to me?"

Chen pretended to be stupid and said, "Letter? What letter? I didn't see it."

"You..."

Odaichi's chest was shaking slightly in anger. He pressed his heart with one hand and made a fist with the other hand, trying to calm his emotions.

She tried her best to put on a smile, "Tell me whether we are friends or not!"

"Miss, please spare me. If you want to escape from marriage, just run away. Why are you getting involved with me?"

"I'm going to Konoha!"

"..."

"What's wrong? Can't you?"

The young man curled his lips and said, "Where do you think Konoha is? It is impossible for Hokage Uncle to take you in as a sensitive person like you."

"Isn't there still you?"

"I don't care."

Odaichi looked into the distance, clasped his hands and begged, "This is related to my lifelong happiness. You must help me. Only you can help me."

"No, you've been working in Daimyo's Capital for so long, and you can't even find a few helpers?"

Odaichi shook his head pretending to be miserable, "As soon as my father told me, no one dared to help me."

"You have a bad character. You must have some bad friends..." The young man covered his forehead and sighed.

"I don't care anyway, you are the only one who can help me."

"How do you want me to help?"

The girl showed a sly smile, "My father has been paying closer attention recently, as you have seen. He always brings four followers to monitor me when I go out..."

"If you keep talking nonsense like this, your followers will come back."

"You pretend to be me and delay me for a few days."

The young man's expression changed, "... Doesn't that mean I have to wear women's clothes?"

Odaichi said with strange eyes, "What does it matter if you transform into me? No one else knows anyway... Why are you so sensitive to women's clothing?"

"Is there any?"

"I heard that all men who are sensitive to women's clothing actually have a desire for women's clothing in their hearts..." Odaichi showed a weird smile, "Would you like my sister to buy you a few sets as a thank you gift?"

"Get out!"

Seeing the entourage from a distance walking back, Uchiha Chen raised his head and asked the last question, "You go to Konoha, what if brother Sakumo doesn't accept you?"

Odaichi thought for a while and made up his mind, "If he doesn't accept it... I will live alone in Konoha, as long as I leave this cage!"

The young man no longer had any doubts.

"Is spring coming for honest people?"
