Chapter 367 Tang Ping: I knew they were bad, but I didn’t expect them to be this bad!
"strangeness!"

Hinata Cangyue muttered to himself.

Because what appeared in her eyes was indeed extremely strange.

If you only look at the appearance of those masked warriors, anyone would think that they are the death squads secretly raised by the daimyo.

This is not uncommon, there are many such cases in the ninja world.

The problem is that the other party looks like a corpse to Hinata Sogetsu, but the strange thing is that there is chakra, and it is not weak, it is completely comparable to the level of a senior ninja.

To put it simply, she thought the other person was a corpse, but the facts told her that he was alive.

But there is one thing that everyone can see.

Danger!

The ninjas could naturally sense the danger from these masked warriors, so their originally nonchalant attitudes all changed.

Only the Scorpion not far away had a fanatical look in his eyes, as if he had seen a perfect work of art.

"A puppet?"

This thought flashed through Tang Ping's mind when he saw his performance.

But he immediately rejected this idea, because it was impossible for Hinata Cangyue to not see through the puppets, she could recognize even a 'human puppet'.

However, the masked warriors on the stage did not give any conclusion, proving that they could not see through it.

After thinking about the plot he had seen before traveling through time, Tang Ping felt terrified.

Because even when Prince Naruto was the Hokage, the nobles still firmly regarded themselves as Celestial Dragons, and their status was not shaken at all.

This is terrifying.

Prince Ming "saved" the world, but in the end he still failed to overthrow the corrupt aristocracy.

All I can say is that there must be some hidden story behind this.

The real ninja world is not as simple as in the anime. There are problems everywhere.

Anyway, Tang Ping is used to it.

This situation was also within his expectations.

This time, not to mention other aspects, just the intelligence gained is already huge.

"It is your honor to serve the daimyo..."

The Qianxiwan on the stage is too disgusting to watch.

After all, he is a dignified quasi-kage. Even though he is a noble of the Land of Fire, he shouldn't lick the name of the daimyo like this, right?

Tang Ping even felt that Scorpion, who was not far away, was almost unable to suppress his violent temper.

There is no doubt that if the other party continues, he will most likely become one of the 'human puppets'.

I don't know if the other party noticed that there were "bad guys" among the crowd, so he changed the subject and announced that the ninja army was going to set off.

But this order made all the ninjas extremely dissatisfied.

Because they need to protect the regular troops and logistics convoys as they move forward.

All I can say is that if you eat a few more peanuts, you won't be able to do such drunken behavior.

"Tsk, you are indeed a noble. You really did not disappoint everyone's expectations of a bad commander!"

The sound from the side attracted Tang Ping's attention.

It’s the Xuanyuan people!

The other party consisted of five people, all with cloth wrapped around their heads and a furry tail tied around their waists, looking extremely conspicuous.

Some people offended them because they didn't believe in evil, but they were never seen again the next day.

This is the 'Ninja Hunting' group.

The main job is to hunt ninjas.

Even the Hidden Cloud Village was killed without mercy. How could ordinary ninjas have a good ending if they provoked them?

And there are no rules in the ninja army.

The weak eat the strong!

As long as you don't take action openly, the Fire Nation won't interfere.

For the ninjas, attacking in secret was a completely basic operation, so the nearly 3,000 ninja soldiers had already lost nearly a hundred people in non-combat situations before the attack.

Gee!

The reason why the Ninja Army has been able to hold out until now and not disband is all because of the support of the Fire Country Daimyo's "money power".

Just like Dou Ping, with a daily salary of 100,000 taels, plus a basic salary of 10 million, if he doesn't have a castle tower, he can stay there until the other party goes bankrupt.

After the announcement, the ninja army finally set off.

I didn’t notice it when I was stationed here before, but now that I have set out, I can see some things.

There are nearly three thousand ninja soldiers, divided into large and small groups.

The most eye-catching ones are naturally the Guardian Ninja and the Fire Temple, which are considered the two core forces of the Ninja Army.

All that's left is Ninja Village.

For example, a small ninja settlement like the Tsuchigumo clan is also a ninja village, but the population is so small that it is not qualified to be called a ninja village. The official name is Ninja Village.

In this kind of ninja village, there may be only a few ninjas at a time or dozens of ninjas at a time, which is a considerable number when added up.

It can only be said that Dou Ping only just found out about this group. However, most of them can only barely refine chakra and have not even mastered the three-body technique.

Not as good as Niuniu!

He didn't mean to be disparaging in this comment.

The rest are hired ninjas. This group is not the largest in number, but they are definitely the type with the strongest combat effectiveness and the lowest morale.

People like Tang Ping and his Shell Organization, as well as Jiaodu, Xie and Xuanyuan all belong to this group.

Finally, there are the ninjas trained privately by the nobles.

Don't think that nobles can't train ninjas. The methods of refining chakra have long been known everywhere. In addition, ninja bloodline is not difficult for nobles to find, so it is not surprising that they can train ninjas.

But in any aspect, it is far inferior to the Ninja Village.

But what Tang Ping didn't notice was.

As he observed the others, they were also the center of attention.

"Shell Organization...?"

Kakuzu looked with his green eyes at the two figures not far away who were covered in black cloaks and had white bone masks on their faces.

They received an order to find a way to obtain intelligence on the Shell Organization.

Colleagues are enemies!
The Kara organization is too similar to the Akatsuki organization. Both are small-scale mercenary groups, and both follow the route of a small number of elites.

And this mysterious organization is also a threat to Akatsuki, so this order was given.

Kakuzu and Scorpion looked at each other and nodded slightly.

In fact, they are also very interested in shell tissue.

Next, as long as they find an opportunity, they will try to gather intelligence.

Apart from Xiao, everyone else was also extremely curious about Dohei and the others, but they all had no chance.

Whenever there is an opportunity, I will try it out.

How could Tang Ping take such a sinister ninja army seriously?

Today the army set out on its journey, covering a total of... 30 kilometers.

Yes, that's the data.

Tang Ping didn't know whether this coalition force was here to make fun of him.

It looks well-organized when stationed and assembled, but once the real action starts, everything goes wrong.

Anyway, there are all kinds of things that can't be watched.

At the current rate, it will take one or two months to reach the castle tower.

It's a sin!

Even if it was an ordinary caravan, it would take more than a month to reach the castle tower. They don't look like a trained combat unit at all.

But the training of ordinary ninja troops... No, do Ashigaru need training?

Wouldn't it be enough for one person to hand out a spear and tell them who the enemy is?

Yes, Ashigaru don't need any training at all, so they are just farmers with weapons.

On the contrary, the warriors need to undergo rigorous training and be fully armed, which can be described in one sentence.

I want to hit ten!
It is no exaggeration to say that a samurai can kill ten foot soldiers in a small-scale battle.

However, on a crowded large-scale battlefield, the warriors' advantage is not that great after being huddled together.

It can only be said that the Fire Nation coalition gave Dou Ping a little shock from the beginning.

He had thought the coalition forces were bad, but he had never imagined them to be this bad.

It is simply a tool for ministers and nobles to make money.

The supplies on the road were directly traded with the caravan following behind.

Do you really think they are blind?

Sorry, it really is.

Because no one would tell the daimyo about this.

Ministers and nobles alike were all united in their desire to make money.

It is a rare opportunity to reap such large-scale benefits, and anyone who dares to stop it will be their mortal enemy.

Even the guardian ninja dared not go against the united nobles and ministers.

Of course, no matter whether it is the ministers or the nobles, the prerequisite for daring to do this is that they naturally think the castle tower is vulnerable.

Yes.

How strong can a small force that has only been established for less than a few years be?

In comparison, making money is more important.

Once you deal with the other party, there will be no chance to make money.

However, before they could get enough money, they felt the "enthusiasm" of the castle tower.

After spending more than half a month and consuming more than 1 billion taels of silver, the coalition forces had reached nearly halfway when an accident occurred.
