- Dokaaaaaan!!!
When the gunpowder balls wrapped around the body of Misty Hidden Talent blew the fire simultaneously, a strong explosion sound stuck to one side of the perimeter. At that moment, when the blood splashed again on the white curtain, the faces of Shinobu Maida, who was in the curtain and a prisoner who could only see the struggle of talent in the shadows, all whitened their faces uniformly.
"Talent!!! Nooo!!
Yuri Kamayunosuke, who slapped his fist from the inside of the tabernacle, is wetting his white cheek with tears and crying out. The face of the other ten brave men lay down on their faces and stared at the ground. All his faces were rugged and harsh.
Apparently, outside the curtain, the smoke emanating from the gunpowder balls is covering the area and will whiten the dark sky for a while.
In that, Negishi Tsugaru, who received a large number of gunpowder balls in front of him, seemed to have lost his mind to the shock, and as he drifted off, he could see Hiranuchi Takasaka dragging him back to his cabin.
Also, because the talent could not even discern its shadow, Kamanosuke was struck with despair by the massive amount of gunpowder balls.
And it was the moment when it was possible to confirm that Takasaka Hiranuchi and Negishi Tsukaru had disappeared into the cabin...
"Yes. You're annoying. Kamanosuke. That's enough."
And Nezu Shigehachi raised his bare voice.
"Yes?"
It was Kamanosuke, who had no idea what the hell he was talking about, but he was unwittingly annoyed by the sound of his voice being too light to think his buddy had blown himself up in front of him.
"Mmmm! No! Shigehachi! You have no blood or tears!? Talent blew himself up!
"Oh. You did. Hey, I didn't think he was as good a man as that."
But without worrying about Kamanosuke or anything like that, Yasuhachi is impressed with his talent. Then Sanho Aokai spoke out.
"I'm always the one in that role."
"Ha! No, no! The role has always been decided between Aokai and Izo!
Kosuke Kakuyama is laughing at Aokai's words.
To its far too soothing appearance, Kamanosuke turns his eyes through anger and no longer "knows what it means".
... and with Sasuke Monkey flying there with his bitter face, he issued a decree to everyone.
"Everyone. I don't have time for this. It will be done soon. Because we don't have time for their replacement watchman to come!
Speaking so, everyone, except Kamanosuke, crouched in front of the curtain.
And...
He began to reach outside the curtain.
"Heh...? What are you doing?
Asked Kama-nosuke, who had no idea why, while Shigehachi was annoyed.
"What was Kamanosuke asking!?
"What... I haven't heard anything..."
Then Rokuro Hozuki, who remained silent until then, snapped blush.
"The sound of a knife... you would have heard it, wouldn't you?
"Knife... the sound of striking..."
Kamanosuke stares into the sky and tries to remember something "hmm". Rokuro Haino spoke there.
"The sound of being smashed with a knife. That was the word to us."
"Uh... no..."
"This is how the talent was conveyed by the crashing sound of a knife and a razor-sharp stick." Hirojimen "and..."
In the words of Rokuro Haino, Kamanosuke saw the ground outside the curtain as a hack.
They were littered with weapons and tools that fell from the pockets of talent.
In other words, Talent Zao confronted his opponent with a knife with a historical difference in strength in order to tell him about it, and he was flashy in order to split nature, tools and weapons on the ground.
Much of it, of course, could not be grasped merely by reaching out from the inside of the tabernacle, but one or two of each were still gaining something. Kamanosuke sees how it is and rushes to imitate it to everyone and reach outside the curtain. Then I could grip a single "not".
Its "unwanted" tip has an interesting shape and is hook-shaped so that it can be caught on something. And there was something written on that surface.
"Mmmm!?" Blink... migi... see... "What is it? This?"
Sasuke narrowed his eyes when Kamanosuke showed it to everyone.
"Well... you mean...
This is the place, but let's reward him for putting up his body without a pattern. "
"What do you mean?
Kamanosuke frowns again. But Sasuke didn't just say it to Kamanosuke, he said it to everyone.
"Don't cut the rope that's tied this hand right now."
"Huh? What do you mean? If Sasuke had a" lump "in his hand (the little dust thing for his phone), he could cut the rope right away and go outside, right?
Sasuke shook his neck to the side in such an inquiry by Kamanosuke.
And he strengthened his voice.
"Then we'll be the only ones who can escape!
Kamanosuke's eyes widened again at the words, but they were all the same. But only Sasuke lifted up the corner of his mouth, and continued to speak.
"The thought of talent… it means, 'Help the wind demon out tomorrow, on the stage where he will be taken'!
Yes! Our battle is tomorrow! Everybody! Good! "
Everyone on the spot nods forcefully. Seeing that, Sasuke closed.
"Well, every day! Undressed!"
and…

Celebration 11 (1606) December 20 (approx. 8: 00 pm) -
A beautiful three sun moon floated beneath it in the sky, slowly going down the road toward his sleeping inn as one sneak dragged his heavy body.
When I say "heavy," I never weigh him heavily. Here, we mean the so-called "weight", i.e. it is heavily wounded.
Still, he completely erases the signs and is lost in the dark night, so he can wonder how much his strength as a sneak is.
"Guru... Chancellor... I resent you...
Didn't you tell me it was so 'a suicide bomber that didn't hurt at all'... "
That way by now I can say stupidity with Prime Minister Ekiura Chang floating in my chest, who is supposed to be putting out a sperm under the Maida family owner, Nobuyuki Maida, so I guess I can still afford to say heavy weight.
Whoever sees it is painful to slip down the left hand, which has stopped moving, and the remaining right hand is trying to cover the parts of the shattered abalone.
However, even in such a state, the mouth is loose and its eyes shine in the fullness that has accomplished something.
What is that sneak...
He was the one who hid the fog.
He turns the face to the night sky.
In the sky, in addition to the great Three Days Moon, the stars were shining.
And he raised the corner of his mouth and crushed himself.
"Ha... it doesn't seem... I..."
Those who are called "ninjas" more than the former do not like to engage. They hate it as much as they hate it.
If they even point the weapon in their hands at the target, let's just say that when the target is caught off guard without the weapon… i.e. most of the time the assassination occurs.
Sometimes we go out to war, but that's only if it's by threatening orders from lords, or if we defend ourselves when we're attacked on our territory.
It is also good to know that it is the same as the Misty Hidden Talent Zone, which falls into the category of first-rate ninjas, because what he specializes in is "hidden shapes," i.e. letting the opponent create illusions and disappear from the spot.
In other words, ninjas can be described as "a race that hates contact with others in the extreme."
That never just means "engagement".
It also includes all contacts between people, and this and Iga Ninja's typical talents were those who did not accept anything called "companions", "friends", or even "loyalty" or "in-laws".
Now he literally broke a bone for his "buddy" and has a wound that is never light on him.
And that's not all...
He now has a sense of fullness that is overflowing.
The source of that sentiment is unquestionable no matter how talented Sasuke denies that he did what he did to save Sasuke.
To that he was searching for what could cause it, badly bewildered, but as far as possible in the back of his mind, disguised as calm.
Gaze into a much deeper part of your mind.
That's where I've floated up...
One boy lays his sword against the samurai with spears to protect the girl.
Its knees tremble in fear, and its hands with short swords that are not even supposed to reach its target are indeterminate.
Still, the boy's eyes burn to the heart to protect the girl, and the temper flickers several adults surrounding him.
He remembered that there was a crack in the shell of the talented mind from the time he saw that glowing figure throwing his life at him for the sake of those in front of him.
The boy...
Hideyoshi Toyotomi...
I showed him in the mountains, lost to escape the war in Sekigahara, that figure of his made the gear of Misty Hidden Talent's life just a little crazy.
And what decisively cracked the crack that arose there was that night when this order to stop Hidekang Nojo's assassination was given by Yukimura Maida. That was when all of a sudden I saw a full smile of excellence that showed up with booze in one hand.
Lighting the "losers of the times", so to speak, who can only live in the "leap" can also lead to jeopardizing their position if one mistake is made. Yet Hideyoshi Toyotomi, "not of this age," let the light shine there.
A glimmer of light...
That light is what makes kindness and companionship...
For the first time in his life, Misty Hidden Talent gave himself up to that "light brought by others".
As a ninja at this point, even if you are branded "disqualified," you will not be able to escape the word.
Still, I can assure you that he will never forget the flavor of that liquor that he exuded with Hideyoshi Toyotomi, Yukimura Maida, and his friends at that time. I mean, even if it's "disqualified," I don't regret it.
What makes alcohol so delicious...
Yes... he had a "greed" to taste that booze again. It came from a shell slapped and cracked by Hideyoshi, and that is what he realized was the driving force behind his attempt to save his companion as a sacrifice.
If he hadn't met "now" Hideyoshi Toyotomi, how would he have behaved in this operation fulfilling it? I can't help thinking about it right now.
But there is one thing that needs to be made clear here.
It's...
The fact that Hideyoshi Toyotomi "changed the life of one ninja on his own".
At least Misty Hidden Talent feels it with his own hands.
And this is what he had to think.
- That other guy could change something bigger one day...
and…
When I think about it, I feel something burning up in my mind with wonder.
If it's also a ninja position, it's an emotion that shouldn't be there.
Still, he is "greedy" that he wants to keep himself in that burning excitement.
And he was firmly determined in his heart.
- For that light, let's live in darkness. I would spare this body for that light.
That's because I want to drink that delicious drink again...
He hurried down the path under the glowing Three Days Moon, unable to contain the laughter that came naturally from such a simple desire.
