Two days after Samurai Tournament ended.

Senior executives from various countries have different thoughts and are leaving Land of Night one after another.

As the representative of Iwagakure, Wu, after discussing and reaching some cooperation with Yayoi, did not stay any longer and embarked on the road back to Land of Earth.

Not long ago, Wu had passed the internal election in the village and was officially confirmed as the next Tsuchikage.

Considering that the current Tsuchikage Ishikawa is very old and does not have much time to leave the village, the communication between him and Yayoi is often done through letters.

Not only Tsuchikage, Kirigakure's First Mizukage Byakuren is also not young, so he listed Hozuki Gengetsu as the next Mizukage early to avoid his sudden death one day, and not to plunge the Ninja Village into too much turmoil, so that he can land smoothly.

The only one who stayed and didn't leave was Hokage Hashirama Senju.

He dismissed the Jonin guards around him and asked them to return to the village first. He took his wife Mito and 'inspected' around Nightview City to perform his duties as Hokage.

As for the content of the 'inspection', I don't care for the moment. Anyway, Hashirama felt that after coming to Land of Night, he conducted the 'inspection' seriously.

Moreover, among Ninja World, only Hashirama can take Jinchūriki out with such swagger.

Yayoi didn't pay much attention to Hashirama's behavior. After paying attention for a while, he stopped paying attention.

After all, although Samurai Tournament has come to an end, the impact it caused cannot be quelled so easily, especially those Samurais who expressed their intention to join Land of Night after the conference. This is the first thing Yayoi needs to solve at the moment.

Regarding this situation, Yayoi had some expectations at the beginning of hosting Samurai Tournament.

In recent years, Samurais all over the world have experienced an unprecedented wave of unemployment. Most of Samurai's jobs have been replaced by ninjas, so they have begun to join the underground Black Markets whose prospects are also not very prosperous. They are not even allowed to lick blood.

Life is not impossible, but it is definitely a bit tight.

Based on this situation, they naturally want to find a new 'buyer' who is not so discriminatory towards Samurai.

Of course, Samurai and Yayoi are welcome to come.

However, he doesn't accept it all. If he is raising a family to make ends meet, Yayoi will feel more at ease about it.

But if you are the kind of "invincible person" who can feed one person and keep the whole family from going hungry, Yayoi will be much more cautious.

Not only are these people difficult to give orders, but there is also a high probability that they will be bribed by other countries to do spy work, deliberately creating a false identity without relatives or friends.

Although it is not uncommon for countries to send spies into other countries to spy on intelligence, Land of Night has also done the same thing. But if we encounter it, Yayoi still doesn't want too many spies to come in.

Because it is easy to kill a spy, but it is very difficult to kill the spy's relatives and friends together. After all, the cost of pursuing and killing a spy across the country must be very high.

Fortunately, there are not many such people, so just get them in first and then investigate slowly.

After all, most of Land of Night's real core secrets are sealed in Inner Court. He and the three sisters Irori are in charge all year round, and there are thousands of puppet soldiers patrolling day and night, all kinds of Sensory Barrier and Byakugan probe... Unless someone comes in from the front openly and wants to sneak in quietly and steal secrets without being discovered, there is absolutely no possibility of this.

For those Samurai and Yayoi who immigrated with their families, the situation will be much more relaxed.

However, just in case, Yayoi still sent people to conduct detailed investigations on these Samurai and their families to ensure that the relationship was real and not fake.

Among these immigrants Land of Night and Samurai, the one who makes Yayoi most at ease is probably the elderly Samurai--Miyamoto Raizo who emerged as the winner.

His strength is strong enough. At the age of sixty, he can barely hold down Kurobei. You can imagine how powerful he would be when he was more than ten years younger and his body and experience were at their peak.

If Samurai of this level could be used as a spy, it would be really luxurious.

What's more, these few days are enough for Yayoi to investigate a lot of things, such as the origin and origin of Miyamoto Raizo.

He was born in a small country that has been extinct for two years - Land of Flow. This country is a standard small country with only one main city, a few towns and villages, and a total population of less than 200,000.

Raizo has served the Daimyo family of Land of Flow since he was a child. He holds the position of head guard and has a certain reputation in the local area.

Two years ago, Land of Flow was attacked by an enemy country and was destroyed.

Raizo also disappeared after the war to destroy the country.

When he appeared again, he had already arrived at Land of Night, participated in this Samurai Tournament, and won the title of "Ninja World's No. 1 Swordsman".

At this time, Yayoi, who was at the top of Tenshu Tower's office, looked at Raizo standing in front of him with interest, and then turned his attention to the little girl next to Raizo, nervously holding on to Raizo's trouser legs.

Judging from her age, this little girl is about three or four years old.

The little girl has neatly black shoulder-length hair, wears a kimono with embroidered patterns, and has a timid expression that is very endearing.

This little girl is none other than the princess of Land of Flow - Tamaki. She is also the only remaining bloodline of the Land of Flow Daimyo family.

When Land of Flow perished two years ago, Raizo responded to Land of Flow Daimyo's request and took the subjugated princess, who was only over one year old at the time, to leave her motherland and live a life of hiding in Tibet.

The reason is also very simple. In the underground Black Market, this princess Tamaki has a bounty of tens of millions of taels on her body.

If you are alone, Raizo will naturally not be afraid of the assassins who come to harass you, but with a dragster who can't even live independently, your life will naturally be tense.

"Land of Night welcomes Samurais like you, Mr. Raizo, to join. However, the demise of Land of Flow involves diplomatic issues with other countries. It will take me some time to resolve them. Before that,, Mr. Raizo and this princess Tamaki, let's stay in Nightview City for the time being. But one thing needs to be stated, once the two join Land of Night, they must make a clean break with all the grudges in the past."

Yayoi thought for a moment and gave his answer.

"I have long given up on the matter of reviving the country and taking revenge. My only wish now is that Your Highness the Princess can grow up safely. It is a blessing to have a place to stay."

Raizo touched the head of the little girl next to her and shook her head slightly, her cloudy eyes showing love and compassion.

He and the late Land of Flow Daimyo appeared to be master and servant, but in fact they were more like a pair of close friends.

What he protects is not the princess of a country, but the last bloodline of his best friend.

"It's best to have such an idea. I will be responsible for negotiating with Land of Rain later."

Yayoi nodded and expressed his willingness to guarantee Land of Rain for him and Princess Tamaki on this matter.

Land of Rain was the country that destroyed Land of Flow.

The ninja village established in that country - Amegakure, is a village that is very good at assassinating Ninjutsu.

In terms of ninja strength, Kusagakure is not inferior to Land of Grass at all.

Coupled with the fact that it is good at assassination, for a small country like Land of Flow with a very fragile territory and population, it is an unstoppable natural disaster.

Even Raizo barely managed to escape from the siege of Amegakure.

And in essence, Land of Flow did not die due to external enemies, but because there was an internal power dispute first, and someone introduced the variable Land of Rain, which led to its demise.

Otherwise, this country may be able to sustain itself for a few more years.

Watching Princess Raizo and Tamaki leave, Yayoi began to think about how to negotiate with Land of Rain in the future.

Saving Princess Raizo and Tamaki is not a problem for Land of Night. The key lies in the subsequent handling. Princess Raizo and Tamaki cannot be allowed to take revenge on Land of Rain. This is the key.

Yayoi, who guaranteed this, once Raizo and Tamaki show substantial retaliation, then as the guarantor, he will need to deal with these two people on behalf of Land of Rain.

After thinking for a while, another group of Samurai came in. Yayoi put away his thoughts and looked at the group of Samurai who had just come in.

Hatake Shinjiro, the suspected grandfather of Kakashi Hatake, and Samurai Azumi, the only female to enter the top ten of the conference, are also among them.

The arrangements for these people are simpler than Raizo. There are not too many grudges involved, it is just a simple unemployment issue.

Although Yayoi knew that there must be spies sent by other countries to spy on intelligence, he still needed to collect further information to determine who they were.
