Communication with Ming
Kyakumei Forest, the habitat of a giant chameleon clan, is located on an uninhabited island in the Ninja World, a vast wetland forest unknown to anyone.
"Tokatsu, release everyone. Then, is there any open space nearby?"
We need to negotiate amicably with these guests."
Upon arriving at Kyakumei Forest, Feng first instructed Tokatsu to expel all the people inside it.
Otherwise, waiting for the more than a thousand people inside to come out on their own would take too much time.
"Yes, Lord Feng."
Upon hearing this, Tokatsu caused a dozen or so holes to appear in various parts of the Castle he had transformed into, spitting out the people inside one by one.
Since everyone who came with them was a ninja, naturally no one would fall because of this.
Then, before long, the scene was clearly divided into two groups.
Feng was accompanied by his Royal Guard, while Ming led a group of border ninja from Kirigakure.
As for Genji, he naturally stayed by Feng's side, but being in his seventies or eighties, he was still supported by Uchiha Izumi.
"Hey! Raku, have you won over Isham yet?"
"Haha, of course! We'll ask the mistress to help us confirm our relationship in a while!"
"However, Lord Feng, why did you bring such a large group of people to the Kyakumei Forest...?"
"It's alright, some guys just need a 'friendly' chat."
"Wait for me! I want to join too!"
"Blood Claw, I heard you went to help Kabuto again and fought the snakes from Ryūchi Cave. Did you win?"
"Nonsense, how could a mere snake be a match for my dragon-like Blood Claw?"
Wait, Lord Feng brought so many people with him...?
"Hehe, Lord Feng said he'd take them on a 'friendly' exchange."
"A 'friendly' exchange? Um, wait for me."
After releasing everyone, Tokatsu the Chameleon led Feng towards an open space in the Kyakumei Forest.
Along the way, Feng would occasionally greet other chameleons he saw.
Upon hearing about the 'friendly' exchange, the chameleons he encountered instantly lit up and followed Feng.
As mentioned before, the contract scroll of Feng Tongling Tokatsu was not just signed with Tokatsu, but was a contract scroll for the entire Chameleon Clan of Kyakumei Forest, similar to that of Mount Myōboku and Ryūchi Cave.
Naturally, just like Mount Myōboku and Ryūchi Cave, it will also interact with other chameleons.
However, Kyakumei Forest neither possessed the Senjutsu inheritance that Feng desired, nor was it of much help in combat for Feng, who Susanoo as a regular Ninjutsu.
Therefore, even though Feng can summon other giant chameleons besides Tokatsu, he is only close to Tokatsu and usually only Summoning Tokatsu.
Although he rarely interacted with other chameleons, he couldn't resist the fact that this group of chameleons unexpectedly loved to communicate. Although they had different personalities, they all shared the common traits of being "socially adept" and talkative.
Therefore, as one of only two psychics in the Kyakumei Forest, even though Feng had little interaction with the other chameleons, they were already very familiar with him and naturally understood what Feng meant by "friendly" communication.
As for this group of talkative "social butterflies," Feng just felt that they were mostly bored and restless.
After all, before he obtained the Summoning Scroll of Kyakumei Forest from Tokatsu, this small group of chameleons had not communicated with the outside world for decades.
It can only be said that Tokatsu fulfilled his loyalty to Kubisaki Gōza, but he really did a lot of harm to 'Dragon'.
Not long after, Tokatsu finally led everyone to an open area in Kyakumei Forest.
Behind Feng, besides several hundred personal guards, were several enormous chameleons of various colors.
They're all just bored people who came to join the fun, or even want to get involved.
This terrified the group of Kyakumei Forest Kirigakure Ninja.
They were initially confident that following Elder Genshi would prevent them from being scammed.
But looking at the several lizards, each tens of meters long, behind Feng, and being stared at by several pairs of eyes larger than a person, especially since one of the lizards' forepaws seemed to be dripping blood, even the boldest Kirigakure Ninja began to have doubts.
"Raku, Blood Claw, and you all, stand back a bit, don't scare them."
I'm counting on them to work for me in the future."
Feng glanced at Raku, Blood Claw, and the other chameleons who had joined in the fun, then at the somewhat frightened Kirigakure Ninja, and couldn't help but slap his forehead, inwardly cursing himself for miscalculating.
He was only thinking of bringing this group of Kirigakure Ninja to the secluded Kyakumei Forest to persuade them, so that even if he used Susanoo and Flying Thunder God Technique, it wouldn't be exposed in the Ninja World.
But he momentarily forgot that these giant chameleons, whom he looked down upon, were all terrifying top-tier combat forces to ordinary ninjas in an era before cheat codes were rampant.
How much pressure will this put on the regular ninjas of Kirigakure?
Moreover, unlike Feng's subordinates, other ninjas in the Ninja World don't regularly arrange combat training against giant creatures and know how to deal with them.
Other ninjas facing giant creatures were fortunate if they had their own giant Summoning Beast, allowing them to fight giant against giant. Those without such beasts could only rely on fate and their own abilities.
"Akira, and the other Kirigakure Ninja, don't worry about them attacking you; they'll just be spectators."
Feng first told the few chameleons who had come to join the fun to stay away, and then he began to persuade the Kirigakure Ninja had not yet been pacified.
"Hmph, hypocrite."
Now, Lord Feng, could you explain why Elder Genshi agreed to bring Kirigakure under the daimyo's command?
And you, what exactly do you intend to do by bringing us here?"
Ming glared angrily and snorted coldly, then went Gate of Opening and asked the question.
As the head of the Anbu during the ' Bloody Mist Village ' era, he was not a good-tempered person.
He had remained silent before, partly because he believed he was now atoning for the sins committed by the ' Bloody Mist Village ' and did not want to say much.
Secondly, it was out of respect for Genji, who believed that this village elder would never harm them, the villagers.
Right now, Feng, who is opposite us, is neither from Kirigakure nor has he committed any sins against the ' Bloody Mist Village ' that he caused.
Since it was an enemy sent by the daimyo to attempt to annex Kirigakure, Akira naturally wouldn't be polite.
"Hehe, the reason is very simple."
If he refuses, I will destroy Kirigakure!
He had no choice but to ensure the survival of Kirigakure.
Similarly, you have no choice but to surrender or be slaughtered.
"Genji personally made this trip hoping to buy you some opportunities so I can kill fewer people."
Feng smiled calmly, but his tone was icy and ruthless, filled with murderous intent.
"You?! You destroyed Kirigakure?! You destroyed us?!"
Hahaha! Ridiculous! You, or those people behind you, or those giant lizards!
Ming laughed wildly, mocking Feng's boastful words.
At the same time, he responded to Feng's threat head-on, unleashing an astonishing killing intent that was even colder and more ruthless than Feng's, almost solidifying into a tangible stream of air.
"You lackey of the daimyo, do you know that just a few months ago, I was still in the village wiping out the ninja clan, slaughtering the Bloodstained Ones, and killing countless people?"
I probably have more blood on my hands than you've ever seen.
Hmph, surrender?!
We are the Kirigakure Ninja fought our way out of the ' Bloody Mist Village '.
Even if you step over my dead bodies and slaughter all the Kirigakure Ninja under my command, not all of them are spineless. Some of them would rather die than surrender and fight to the death!
Ming's eyes were fierce and his tone ruthless. As he spoke, he walked towards Feng. With each step, his murderous aura surged, completely overshadowing the murderous aura emanating from Feng.
