Chapter 130: Flame Finger

Saikaku Town!
This is the town ruled by the target nobles.

"You lowly merchants, doing business in Lord Kamakura's fiefdom, dare to run away without paying taxes, do you want to die?"

A mean man with a face heavily covered in powder and as pale as a ghost, surrounded by a dozen samurai and dozens of foot soldiers, stopped a convoy that was about to leave the city.

How rampant are the nobles in the ninja world?

You can only use one sentence to describe each other.

He is completely inhuman in the sense of being inhuman!
There is nothing the other party won’t do, except what you can’t think of.

Ordinary civilians in the ninja world live in hell, and almost half of the credit goes to these nobles.

Less than 1% of the population belongs to the aristocracy, but they occupy more than 80% of the means of production. Coupled with the backward productivity, it is strange that the common people can live well.

"Master Hyo-ri, we have already paid the tax. We cannot delay this shipment. It is urgently needed by the Southwestern Ninja Army!"

Honda Sheng begged desperately.

If it was just the money he wouldn't feel bad.

But this batch of goods was materials purchased privately by Tang Ping.

The other party not only wanted money but also intended to seize the goods, which he naturally could not accept. So he wanted to slip away quietly, but he didn't expect to be stopped.

"Humph, they are just some vulgar people. Do you want to use them to suppress me?"

The mean man named Hyori said this as he whipped Honda Katsu on the back.

In reality, he was just a nobleman's butler.

But in this land, he is the supreme being.

As for the Ninja?

In the eyes of the aristocracy, they were just thugs they had hired and they did not take them seriously at all.

Just when Honda Katsu was being beaten and begging for mercy, ready to bleed heavily.

"I wonder if the vulgar people are talking about us?"

A voice interrupted the actions of both parties.

Tread!

A short-haired boy, wearing a black tight-fitting black suit and elbow-length gloves, looking heroic and handsome, slowly entered the city through the city gate, followed by a group of ninjas wearing Konoha forehead protectors.

The aura is full and the show is in full swing!
As soon as Tang Ping arrived, he saw "Chang Wei is beating Lai Fu!"... No, it was the noble butler beating Honda Sheng, and he felt angry.

When he was in the ninja school, the other party treated him to several good meals.

I thought the intelligence was exaggerating. Honda Chamber of Commerce is a collaborator of the Ninja Army after all, and with my support behind them, it is impossible for any noble to not give them face.

But I didn't expect that the nobles would really have no limit to their own death.

Ninjas are naturally in awe of nobles, so they think they are really "celestial dragons", right?

"You...what are you going to do? I am the butler of Lord Kamakura. Even if you are the Third Hokage of Konoha, you have to treat me with courtesy when you see me!"

Hyo-ri panicked a little and directly pulled out the banner of the Third Hokage.

Indeed, from the perspective of the nobility, Konoha is just a hired 'thug' of the Fire Nation, and its status is indeed not high.

It is because of the concern for the ninja's military strength that they have to admit the saying of "Double Jade (Daimyo and Hokage)" but in the hearts of the nobles, Konoha is really looked down upon.

The population and territory under the jurisdiction of any great noble are much larger than that of Konoha, so how can they look down on it?

"Yeah!"

Tang Ping walked up to the other person with a playful look in his eyes.

As for those samurai and foot soldiers, when they were about to do something, they found a kunai on their necks. As long as they made the slightest movement, these Konoha ninjas would cut their necks without hesitation.

As Dohei's chief general, the Southwestern Ninja Army will obey his orders as long as he does not do anything detrimental to Konoha.

tumultuous!
A flame ignited at Tang Ping's fingertips.

Then, in front of the horrified gaze of the mean housekeeper named Hyo-ri, he pierced the other person's forehead with the extended flaming spear.

"Flame Finger!"

Tang Ping actually wanted to call it "One Yang Finger".

But I feel that the style of painting is too inconsistent, so I just let it be called that.

This method has great room for development.

In battle, a sudden attack like this can definitely have a surprising effect.

The inspiration for the ninjutsu comes from the 'Chidori Sharp Spear! ', just like Homura also borrowed from the 'Chidori Style'.

In general, when Dohei developed ninjutsu, he almost made the future second pillar bald (Sasuke: Please be a human being!)

"go!"

After killing the opponent with one move, Dohei quickly left with the Southwestern Ninja Army.

Not showing too much closeness to Honda Masaru is to protect him, and I believe the other party also understands the reason.

If he really takes it seriously, his enemies will definitely target him in the future, and then he will be in trouble.

This level is just right.

This means that you value your partners but are not close to them.

"Dohei-kun, do you want me to clean up the other family?"

Hinata Cangyue beside him asked quietly.

Looking at her pure and beautiful face, it is hard to imagine that such words as killing an entire family would come out of her lips.

"We'll talk about it after we rescue the troops. Then you and Koji will disguise yourself as thieves and rob them. At least you have to give those nobles some face and not just attack them directly!"

Tang Ping nodded.

Since he was seeking to establish his authority, he would naturally carry it through to the end. At the same time, he could also make a fortune. The nobles had a lot of wealth, so naturally the more kind-hearted people there were, the better.

This nobleman's case is not an isolated one.

He dare not say that all nobles are so greedy and stupid, but at least most of them are like this. He hopes to have such an opportunity again in the future.

Not only can you slap someone in the face, but you can also take the opportunity to fatten your wallet.

If someone suspects that I did it, then I should show evidence. If I can't show evidence, do you really think that I am a "fairy" who can be manipulated at will?

"it is good!"

Hinata Cangyue took a deep look at the location of the City Lord's Mansion and remembered it.

After the situation is resolved, she will bring Yamama Koji to visit the "kind-hearted person" who sponsored their business.

Not long after!
The ninja army came to a forest.

This is also where Orochimaru and his remaining troops were surrounded.

"Zixiao, you go..."

With Hinata Sogetsu by his side, Dohei naturally had an overwhelming advantage in terms of intelligence. He directly issued orders, asking people to eliminate those hidden Sand Ninja spies in advance.

Small teams rushed out one after another to clear the target first.

Bringing Hinata Cangyue along is like activating a full-map cheat.

However, it is impossible for Tang Ping to expose her field of vision. She would only let the team attack when the field of vision was one kilometer away, which showed that her field of vision was the limit of a normal branch family, one kilometer.

With this means, the Southwestern Ninja Army can naturally enter the core battlefield quietly without alerting the Sand Ninja.

Boom!

Tang Ping vaguely heard a loud noise coming from afar and knew that the fight over there had already entered the stage of bloodshed.

"I'll go ahead. Tian Ren, you take charge."

So he threw down a sentence and accelerated forward.

tumultuous!
The flame robe covered the whole body, and then turned into a flaming meteor and disappeared in front of others.

No one in the Southwestern Ninja Army found his actions strange.

The strong naturally have the power to act arbitrarily.

Narada smiled bitterly and led the ninja army to continue advancing at standard speed.

the other side!
Orochimaru cooperated with Mandrake to use traps, poisons, and other means to block the attack of the Sand Ninja.

One against three!

Even though Granny Chiyo's strength has not recovered because of the puppet, she should not be underestimated.

And Luo Sha and Ye Cang become stronger as the battle goes on.

After many battles, the two are now no weaker than Kage-level warriors.

In other words, Huang Tu has left, otherwise Orochimaru would be in a much worse situation.

Now, although his injuries have been healed by the Great Snake Style's Substitution Technique, his condition has completely fallen to the bottom.

Orochi Style Substitution Technique!

It can be said to be Orochimaru's core secret technique.

It combines the skills of psychic arts, biology, etc.

Developed with reference to snakes 'shedding their skin'.

Even if one is fatally wounded, this secret technique can heal the wound.

At the same time, it is also the secret technique that Tang Ping covets the most.

Unfortunately, the development is too difficult, so he has to put it on hold for the time being, but he already has a development idea.

Just as snakes can 'shed their skin', the phoenix can 'rise from the ashes'.

As long as there is an idea, the omnipotent Chakra can definitely accomplish it.

The most important thing in developing ninjutsu is "creativity", so this secret technique is something that Tang Ping is confident he can develop as long as he has enough knowledge.

"Orochimaru, you have nowhere to escape this time!"

While controlling the gold sand to restrict the snakes, Rasa was also attacking Orochimaru's will.

It's a pity that Orochimaru's will is so strong that he can't stop performing even when facing a desperate situation. While he's resisting Ye Cang's powerful attack, he's also on guard against Chiyo and Rasa, not giving them any chance to attack.

With Orochimaru bearing the main pressure, Nara Shikaku and his men were able to maintain the battle situation and prevent it from collapsing.

But now the number of Konoha Ninja Army is less than 600, less than half of the number before the battle, which shows how exaggerated the loss is.

Most of them are injured and are on the verge of collapse at any time.

"It's over!"

Nara Shikaku suddenly realized that his chakra was exhausted and sighed in his heart.

The Sand Ninjas took turns in pursuit, so their chakra was well maintained.

But as the pursued party, they had no way to maintain their chakra, so the opponent had been suppressing and harassing them just to wait for their chakra to be exhausted.

Without chakra, ninjas are not much stronger than ordinary people, and the Sand Ninjas can definitely slaughter them all easily.

A kunai flew over like lightning.

If you have chakra, it's not that easy to dodge.

But now even if my mind wants to hide, my body tells me I can't do it.

Just when he was completely desperate, a voice like the sound of nature rang in Nara Shikaku's ears.
