Half a month later, Chen came here again in a cave in a small mountain range.
Looking at Chuichiro Tame, who was a little tired and his eyes were bloodshot, he asked: "Master Tame, has my sword been made?"
"Well, well, I think I will never be able to use a better weapon than this in my life." Although Ichiro Tamaki was very tired, his face was still full of excitement, and his tone was full of joy and pride.
"Here, that's it. See if you like it. If you're not satisfied, I can modify it, but it's a bit heavy. It's several times the weight of an ordinary weapon."
Ichiro Tamaki took out a simple and mysterious long sword engraved with black patterns and handed it to the boy.
After Chen took the sword and looked at it carefully, he thought it was pretty good.
He input a small amount of thunder attribute chakra into it, and instantly the sound of "" sounded, and countless electric arcs flashed on the sword body.
Chen held the brand new Infinity Blade tightly in his right hand and played with the sword a few times. It felt good, but this was not the place to test the sword, and the specific power of this sword was not yet known.
"Yes, I am very satisfied... Then I will take this sword away."
"Let's go... let's go quickly..." Ichiro Tamaki waved his hand, indicating that he could do whatever he wanted, "I'm almost greedy when I see this sword. Please leave quickly so that I can stay out of sight."
The young man smiled and said nothing.
…
At the end of September, Chen and Kushina returned to Konoha after being apart.
Hokage's office.
The third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, sat quietly in a chair, looking at the documents in his hand amid the smoke, while listening to Chen's mission report.
After the report, he crossed his hands, thought for a while, and then sighed: "The information in Kirigakure Village is very good. Kushina just left the village, and someone was sent to ambush her."
The Third Hokage did not think about this matter as complicatedly as Chen did, but directly determined the purpose of the attack on Kirigakure Village on Kyuubi.
"Kushina went on a mission, not many people knew about it..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen went through all the people who knew about this matter in his mind, and he finally focused on his good friend Danzo.
"He had a big fight with me a few days ago about Kushina. Could it be him..." Sarutobi Hiruzen guessed.
After thinking for a while without any clue, the Third Hokage picked up his pipe, took a deep breath, and asked: "So, the thunder sword is in your hand now?"
"Yes."
"Some time ago, the Third Mizukage sent a letter asking me for the Thunder Knife."
"Did he also say that Black Hoe Lei Ya went out to perform a mission, but was attacked by me for no reason?"
The Third Hokage nodded: "That's pretty much what it means."
"Uncle Hokage, do you want to return the thunder sword?"
"I can't say I'm going to pay it back." The Third Hokage stood up, put his arm around the boy's shoulders and sat down on the chair.
"After all, you don't use a knife, and it won't be of much use if you take it. In that case, you might as well exchange it for something valuable from Kirigakure Village.
What do you think? "
Looking at the wrinkled face of the Third Hokage, Chen suddenly realized that this "ninja hero" was really old.
Except for Samehada, the other seven knives may have limited effectiveness against shadow-level opponents.
However, there are really not many shadow-level characters in Naruto, and they are scattered among the five major countries.
In the huge ninja world, ninja wars involving tens of thousands of people are frequent. The effect of these shadow-level characters is actually very limited. Once they are dispatched, they will face ninjas of the same level.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen were born because they valued this.
As long as you can play any of the seven swords, as long as you have the strength to be a jounin, you can become an elite jounin after wearing a sword.
Because these knives are different and give you special attack methods, the threat will naturally be greater if the sword goes eccentric.
Coupled with the cruel means of killing enemies with the seven swords, the intimidating power of the seven ninja swordsmen is even more powerful.
Therefore, these seven swords represent the backbone of Kirigakure Village, and are a greater threat to the enemy than a shadow-level strongman.
There aren't many elite jounin in a village, let alone troops in the war... And the Seven Ninja Swordsmen usually go together with seven people, without any soldiers.
The seven elite Jonin can kill the enemy crazily when they see it. They have basically no opponents. This is a steel knife and dagger in Kirigakure Village. They are an indestructible special force.
As long as they don't run into anyone from Konoha, the Seven are the kings...
As long as they don't run into the "tight-jacket" clan, the seven people will be the hegemons...
As long as they don't run into Konoha's tight-fitting clan, the seven people will be kings...
Sadly, just once, they met Matt Dai, the leader of the tight-fitting clan, who was also a legendary Konoha genin. From then on, the seven people turned from kings to kings, and began to decline.
Ahem, that's a bit far. In short, it's still the same sentence. The Seven Ninja Swordsmen have extremely strong strategic value.
Now you don't want to think about weakening the opponent, but you have to send back the thunder knife that you have already obtained, and bring it back in exchange for something.
What can Kirigakure get in exchange for? If it's a tailed beast, Chen raises his hands and agrees, but is it possible
After much deliberation, at most it is just some mineral resources.
But what resource is more valuable than turning the seven-man Ninja Swordsman into a six-man or even five-man army.
Moreover, does Konoha lack this resource
Therefore, Tatsumi felt that the Third Hokage was really old. In middle age, he no longer had the courage he once had.
As for why the Third Hokage did this... it's very simple, it's just that he didn't want to quarrel with Kirigakure Village.
The current situation in the ninja world can be said to be the best since he took office.
Sunagakure Village and Iwagakure Village were drained of blood by Konoha because of a contract; Kirigakure Village was isolated overseas; Kumogakure Village, the only threat, has always been the incarnation of 7-chan. It likes to play back, and will never It will take the initiative to start a group. During the two ninja wars, it waited for other villages to start fighting before it harvested people from behind.
Therefore, the Third Hokage absolutely does not want to destroy the current peaceful situation. In his view, stability is overriding.
If I had to use one word to describe the behavior of the Third Hokage, it would be appeasement.
Chen sighed and took out the scroll from his pocket. After unlocking the seal, a long sword with black lines appeared in his hand.
"Uncle Hokage, I modified the Thunder Blade a little bit. Do you think... can I still change it now?"
“…”
Seeing the greatly changed Thunder Blade, the Third Hokage was speechless.
What the hell, if the Third Mizukage saw it, he wouldn't fight him to the death.
Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and took the sword, made a few gestures, and said helplessly: "You are really willing to give up. The Thunder Sword is such a good ninja tool, so you just want to redo it?"
"The shape of the Thunder Knife doesn't suit my taste."
"That can't be the case..."
"Oh, okay." The Third Hokage rubbed his brows and said helplessly, "That's it."
Chen chuckled twice, then suddenly took out another scroll from his pocket and said flatteringly: "Uncle Hokage, there is one more thing I want to tell you."
"What's the matter? I'm already old and I can't stand your troubles anymore."
Chen waved his hand quickly: "It's not a big deal. Isn't this thunder knife remade by me? But not all the materials have been used up, there is still a lot left.
I don't know what kind of weapons Asuma likes, so I don't make any arbitrary decisions. You can go back and ask. I will give this to Asuma as a gift for attending the ninja school. "
As he spoke, he placed the scroll on his desk.
The Third Hokage raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "If you are interested, I will tell Asuma when I get back.
You should go visit him more often when you have nothing to do. Shinnosuke is not in the village and I am busy too. As an elder brother, you should teach him more when you have nothing to do. He admires you very much. "
"Okay, I will definitely go."
