Another week passed, near the end of the new year, before Hashirama Senju left Nightview City with his wife Mito and returned to Land of Fire Konoha.
Yayoi sent someone to Land of Rain to quickly discuss the matter of Princess Raizo and Tamaki, and to guarantee them.
Land of Rain was naturally willing to give face to Yayoi's guarantee, saying that as long as they did not launch retaliatory actions against Land of Rain in the future, they would not send anyone to hunt him down again.
After all, strictly speaking, the demise of Land of Flow was due to internal disputes. Land of Rain's intervention and subsequent peach-picking behavior were just a coincidence.
No matter what, the meat is brought to your mouth, so Land of Rain has no reason not to eat it.
What's more, when Land of Flow destroyed the country, Five Kage Summit had not yet begun, and the peace agreement had not come into effect, so Land of Rain's behavior was naturally not considered "out of line."
Moreover, a small country like Land of Flow, with a population of over 100,000 and only one main city, is inconspicuous. When the country was destroyed, it disappeared from Ninja World without even a single ripple.
Yayoi also noticed Raizo, and then realized that there was such a Land of Flow next to Land of Rain.
After receiving this news, Raizo also breathed a sigh of relief and was extremely grateful to Yayoi.
At first, he was a little worried about whether he could use the power of Yayoi, General of the Land of Night, to deal with the pursuit of Land of Rain.
Now it seems that he underestimated the energy of this general, who was able to make the powerful Land of Rain give in in such a short period of time.
If Raizo is a person, there is no need to worry about Land of Rain's revenge.
He can even fight back at Land of Rain at any time. Even if he is eventually surrounded and suppressed, Land of Rain will pay a heavy price.
But now that he has an extra tanker by his side, his deterrence is greatly reduced. He often looks forward and backward, and is unable to fight with all his strength.
The reason why Yayoi values Raizo and guarantees him is also very simple. In this way, Samurai, who has cultivated traditional Swordsmanship to the highest level, is exactly what Land of Night currently lacks.
He hopes that Raizo can share Swordsmanship experience and further improve more new models of Swordsmanship, expand the Samurai group of Land of Night, and improve the overall Samurai level of Land of Night.
As for Raizo's own strength, in Yayoi's eyes, it is an important or unimportant part.
Based on the opponent's physical condition, the limit would be to persist for another five or six years.
Yayoi suspected that Land of Rain would recognize his guarantee. On the one hand, he was frightened by Land of Night's powerful power. On the other hand, he also felt that Raizo was too old to pose a threat.
And without Raizo, a powerful retainer, a subjugated princess is nothing in the eyes of Land of Rain.
"Mr. Raizo, I have been waiting for you for a long time. The previous battle was not enough. Let's fight again this time."
After coming out of Tenshu Tower, Raizo met Kurobei who was in high spirits.
The opponent dragged him to a training ground. There were many Land of Night and Samurai standing around, all of whom wanted to witness the second battle between Kurobei and Raizo.
Raizo will naturally not refuse Kurobei's invitation.
With the protection of Land of Night, he no longer needs to worry about the safety of Princess Tamaki.
In addition to Princess Tamaki, the thing that is most important to him now, naturally he wants to use the last remaining heat of this body while he can still move.
"Mr. Kurobei, please show mercy next time. After all, I cannot withstand such a long-term attack this time."
Before the war started, Raizo showed a helpless smile.
After all, his body is no longer young. Facing Kurobei, a style of play that belongs exclusively to young people, he is under great pressure.
He defeated Kurobei before, but it was because he used a strategy in the end to avoid the frontal attack, and he barely defeated Kurobei.
This time Kurobei was on guard, and Raizo felt that the person lying down might very well be him.
"Mr. Raizo is joking. Victory is victory. There is nothing mean or despicable. Otherwise, if I am competing with you for physical strength and Chakra strength, I would be considered the despicable party."
Kurobei smiled nonchalantly and saw through Raizo's thoughts.
As he spoke, Kurobei's eyes deepened and he looked seriously at the old Samurai standing opposite to the wind.
"Mr. Raizo, in the previous competition, you actually didn't use your full strength. Can you let me see you fighting with all your strength?"
Kurobei's words made Raizo look startled and looked at Kurobei in surprise.
"Don't be surprised. If you can't even see this, I'm not worthy of being the leader of Samurai, Land of Night. Please let me see the higher peak of Swordsmanship, okay?"
Kurobei's voice is sincere.
The surrounding Samurai also had glaring eyes, staring at Raizo's every move, as if they wanted to learn something from it.
Raizo was silent for a moment and sighed.
"Mr. Kurobei, I don't know why you must have a more powerful Swordsmanship, but you may have guessed wrong this time."
"Eh? Did you guess wrong?"
Kurobei was surprised instead.
Raizo nodded solemnly.
"I do hide my strength, but that thing is completely different from Samurai's Swordsmanship. This is because..."
Raizo said while pulling out the Samurai knife from his waist.
Boo hoo.
A harsh and noisy cry filled the air.
In just an instant, intense blue electric light burst out from the Samurai knife, completely covering the Samurai knife.
Kurobei opened his mouth wide, looking at the electric light on the Raizo Samurai knife, his mouth felt a little dry for a while.
Samurai around them were also stunned, not knowing how to speak for a while.
"Mr. Raizo, you..."
Kurobei Halfway through the conversation, I felt a little unable to continue.
Raizo raised the Samurai knife with flashing lightning and showed it to everyone.
"Mr. Kurobei, and everyone over there, you all understand now. I... am not a pure Samurai. This is why I didn't use this move at the conference. The move I used to press the bottom of the box is Lightning Release Swordsmanship."
Kurobei's eyes were complicated. He thought a lot about how weird and powerful Raizo's trump card would be. He felt excited and could see more powerful Swordsmanship.
But this scene directly caused his brain to become useless and his mind went blank.
"When I was young, I thought Swordsmanship could defeat everything, but in the end I was defeated miserably at the hands of ninjas, so I turned to learn the abilities of ninjas and broke through the shackles of Samurai. Musashi... is my real name, and Raizo was the name I changed after learning Lightning Release Ninjutsu."
Raizo sighed and spoke, as if recalling some unbearable past event.
Strictly speaking, he is not Samurai, but belongs to the ranks of ninjas.
It's just that his Lightning Release Ninjutsu is rarely shown to others, and the only ones he sees are dead people. As a result, few people know that he has the ability of Lightning Release Ninjutsu.
"Mr. Kurobei, do you still want to fight like this?"
"Of course. Rather, I'm envious. After all, I took the path of Samurai because I don't have the talent to be a ninja."
Kurobei has a strong psychological endurance and easily accepted this fact.
For him, no matter what kind of power it is, as long as he can use it.
Land of Night is not Samurai who has not learned Ninjutsu, but Samurai can easily apply Ninjutsu to Swordsmanship like Raizo. Land of Night and Samurai can do it.
"Then come."
Raizo took a deep breath.
Kurobei stopped talking and pulled out the blade with a serious expression.
The moment their eyes met, they swung their swords simultaneously without any prompting.
Thunderstorm and hurricane struck together instantly, saluting each other like Samurai.
