"This is never going to end."
Didaze sighed.
Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!
Didaze formed a hand Hand Seals with one hand, and then, to the beautiful woman's astonishment, a sea of fire formed.
" Water Release: Water Formation Wall!"
The female ninja immediately used Ninjutsu to try and stop her.
However, Didaze's Great Fire Annihilation far exceeded the upper limit of the Water Formation Wall released by the female ninja.
"Well!"
The Water Formation Wall turned into steam, and the female ninja suffered severe burns all over her body because the powerful burning ability of the Great Fire Annihilation.
"Lord Harukawa!"
Just as the female ninja fainted, another female ninja appeared behind her and helped up the female ninja named Harukawa.
The female ninja then glared angrily at Didaze, as if Didaze had done something heinous.
Didaze's mood soured as he looked at the female ninja glaring at him.
Didaze kicked the other man away with a single kick.
The female ninja rolled several times on the ground before crashing into a tree and immediately losing consciousness.
However, Didaze did not kill her.
After all, the female ninja hadn't done anything to him.
Didaze then looked at the woman named Harukawa had fainted on the ground, and a green Mystical Palm Technique appeared in his hand.
Didaze knows Mystical Palm Technique, but he's not very proficient at it.
However, it is more than enough to treat a common burn.
Soon, under Didaze's Mystical Palm Technique, Harukawa quickly woke up.
I need a map of this area.
Didaze, seeing that the other person had woken up, spoke calmly.
"You've defeated me, so from now on I'm yours to command..."
The woman named Harukawa seemed a little shy.
"What's the meaning?"
Didaze had a bad feeling.
"Sir, our village is called Nadeshiko Village. Each of us needs to defeat a man and make him marry into our village."
"And if we fail, we'll have to marry the man who defeated us..."
Harukawa said somewhat shyly.
As she spoke, Harukawa secretly glanced at Didaze.
"So you attacked me right away because you wanted me to marry into your family?"
Didaze looked at the beautiful woman in front of him with a headache.
"Yes, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful, sir. According to our village tradition, I want to marry you!"
Harukawa said somewhat shyly.
Actually, she was also attracted to Didaze's face. She thought Didaze was more handsome than any man she had ever seen, which is why she decided to make a move.
So all three of them are going to marry me too?
Didaze pointed to the three ordinary-looking women who had fainted on the ground.
"Of course not, because I'm yours now, and they can't marry you anymore!"
Harukawa smiled sweetly.
So what's your full name?
Didaze felt that this person looked familiar, so he asked.
"My lord, my full name is Nadeshiko Harukawa."
Harukawa spoke first.
"So you're the village chief of Nadeshiko Village?"
Didaze guessed that this guy must be the Nadeshiko Village, and the future master of Nadeshiko Shizuka.
Have you guessed it yet?
Harukawa chuckled.
"I have no other intentions towards your village, and you don't need to marry into my family. All I need is a map."
Didaze shook his head; he had no intention of marrying someone he had only met once.
Even if this person is very beautiful, it doesn't matter.
"I'm very familiar with this area. Where would you like to go?"
Nadeshiko Harukawa a sly smile.
"I'm going to the Land of Whirlpools. Do you know the way?"
Didaze said to Nadeshiko Harukawa.
" The Land of Whirlpools? That's the land that was destroyed..."
Nadeshiko Harukawa stroked her chin.
She had a strong impression of the Land of Whirlpools!
She was just a child when the Land of Whirlpools was destroyed, and at that time she didn't understand the Land of Whirlpools there.
But he later realized just how powerful the Land of Whirlpools was back then.
At that time, the Land of Whirlpools was arguably the strongest ninja village after the Five Great Shinobi Villages.
Even Takigakure cannot compare to the Land of Whirlpools.
After all, the Land of Whirlpools may not have much else, but it has a lot of sealing masters.
It seems the Seven-Tails was sealed away again as soon as it was released.
Even such a powerful ninja village was annihilated by the Cloud and Mist villages within a few days.
They didn't even last until Konoha sent reinforcements.
This battle also made Nadeshiko Harukawa realize just how terrifying the power of the Five Great Shinobi Villages was.
Nadeshiko Village is insignificant compared to the Land of Whirlpools, and the Land of Whirlpools can be easily destroyed by the Five Great Shinobi Villages.
"By the way, buddy, which ninja village are you from? I haven't seen you wearing a ninja Forehead Protector. You're not some wandering ninja, are you?"
Nadeshiko Harukawa asked a question that seemed to have a hidden meaning.
She wanted to find out if Didaze was a wandering ninja.
If Didaze is indeed a wandering ninja, then she will do everything in her power to keep Didaze in Nadeshiko Village.
"I'm not a wandering ninja."
Didaze immediately saw what Nadeshiko Harukawa was thinking, smiled faintly and shook his head, then took out the Forehead Protector he had kept in the scroll.
He never wore Forehead Protector.
After all, it's an extremely conspicuous symbol, so Didaze generally doesn't wear Forehead Protector unless absolutely necessary.
"This is..."
Nadeshiko Harukawa stared at the Forehead Protector, deep in thought.
"This is Forehead Protector from Iwagakure, one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages. Are you from Iwagakure?"
Nadeshiko Harukawa suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
Didaze nodded silently.
"If I remember correctly, according to the map, Iwagakure is very far from here..."
"Alright, since you're going to the Land of Whirlpools, I won't waste any more words. Would you like to depart now or stay for a meal?"
Nadeshiko Harukawa spoke to Didaze.
"Hmm... stay for dinner."
Didaze initially intended to leave immediately, but after thinking about it, he decided to have a meal instead.
There's no other reason than that the Military Rations Pill really have no taste.
The Military Rations Pill weren't bad, but they weren't tasty either.
Calling it a steamed bun is an understatement.
Tasteless and bland—that's probably the best way to describe it.
"My lord, please come with me!"
A hint of smugness appeared in Nadeshiko Harukawa's eyes, and then she respectfully led Didaze towards Nadeshiko Village.
Although Nadeshiko Village is called a village, the entire island is actually Nadeshiko Village territory.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a small country.
Soon, led by Nadeshiko Harukawa, Didaze arrived at a palace.
Calling it a palace would be an exaggeration; it actually looks more like an enlarged three-story rural house.
Didaze only considered it a palace because it was labeled "Palace".
Didaze saw a large number of people as soon as he entered.
There were men and women inside, but over 95% of them were women.
Didaze realized that the men here were all married into the families of these women; they were, in essence, appendages of these women.
