Overgod Ascension

Inside the hall.

Under the leadership of Matsushita Shota and Matsushita Kenichi, the five ashigaru with disturbed faces and excited faces bowed to Wu Ming in the center with their hands on the ground: "I have met the governor!"

"Well, sword 1, sword 2, sword 3, sword 4, sword 5... I have seen all your efforts in the ashigaru team. I will accept you as my family's servants today. I hope you will not let me down. Your name must become the sword of our clan!"

"Willing to die for my family!"

The five ashigaru blushed and answered loudly.

"Well! As the family's retainers, you can receive a salary of two qian per month, as well as a rice grain, and... I will teach you my swordsmanship! Come with me!"

Wu Ming brought these seven people to a dojo that was specially cleared out, and said in a solemn tone: "What I am going to teach you is the essence of martial arts that I have traveled all over the world and spent several years in the world to comprehend. Name it—Ninjutsu Swordsman Style!"

"The so-called ninjutsu swordsman is a secret martial art that I combined with the principles of ninjutsu, onmyoji, and kendo. I will teach you all of them today. You must work hard to practice!"

"ha!"

All seven of them kowtowed to the ground, almost with tears in their eyes.

At this time, the Fusang Continent was still a world of strict classes. As a privileged class, officials and warriors had the opportunity and privilege to read and write. They monopolized knowledge, especially those related to gaining power, and they were not open to common people at all.

Here, the difficulty of becoming a commoner is simply hell level.

But now, Wu Ming just handed over the seeds of power to them?

"Ah... Even if we fall into hell and become evil spirits, we must repay the kindness of the Lord!"

On the spot, the seven men burst into tears, which made Wu Ming feel numb after seeing it.

"Well, you are loyal to the family, and the family protects you and teaches you martial arts. This is the way of justice for warriors..."

However, Wu Ming still looked at the few under his command who had returned to solemnity, and said in a deep voice: "Next, I will explain the practice of ninja swordsmen. You must listen carefully, and don't miss a word!"

...

"Today's explanation, stop here, go down and practice hard!"

After dismissing the seven people, a strange smile appeared on the corner of Wu Ming's mouth.

This so-called 'ninja swordsman' is naturally based on the Taiyin Corpse Refining Method, and mixed with many miscellaneous things, at the cost of destroying all the experimental products in the dungeon. Cultivation can only be handed over to these subordinates.

For this ninja swordsman, Wu Ming can only guarantee a few points:

First, absolutely no one can die from training!

Second, because it is still a living person, it does not have the fear of sunlight and other restraints that ordinary walking corpses have.

Third, although one can obtain powerful power, there is no guarantee that as the practice deepens, a series of sequelae such as loss of physical sense and reason, increasing insanity, liking to eat raw meat, and even transformation into monsters will appear.

Fourth, even if he turned into a monster or a lunatic in the end, relying on the talismans planted from the beginning, Wu Ming could still maintain the most basic control.

It's not that there were no other complications, but that Wu Ming didn't know it himself, so he could only cross the river by feeling the stones and slowly adjusted in practice.

"However... since a trace of Shuten-douji's flesh and blood is used as the power seed, this Ninjutsu swordsman still has a little potential for strengthening. The first and second levels are not a problem, and the second-level peak is also possible, or there is still a third level. Hope? Although the probability is so small that it is almost negligible..."

Wu Ming rubbed his chin: "It's just that what nickname do we want to have in the future? 'Moon See Seven Guns'? 'Seven People of Ghosts and Gods'? Or 'Ghost One Seven Heavenly Kings' or something like that?"

...

At the same time, the prestige of Yuejianshan Tomita Maru and Wu Ming gradually spread.

Inside a mansion guarded by warriors.

"Father!"

A young samurai, dressed in a fiery red suit, was kneeling in the corridor: "The Kurosawa family spent a lot of money to hire five swordsmen who were first-rate swordsmen to assist them, and they gained an advantage in the battle just now, so we can only retreat! "

"Is a sword born with a sword style?"

The person sitting on the horse is a middle-aged samurai who looks similar to the young man, and is also the head of the contemporary Sanada family, Sanada Motomune.

Fanishi County is a large county in the Izumo Kingdom, with a stone height of 50,000 shi, and the Yamada family occupies 12,000 shi, which is a well-deserved overlord.

And the rest was divided among the local wealthy families and the people of the country.

Among them, the Sanada family has 3,500 koku, and the Kurosawa family has 4,000 koku, both of which are powerful local wealthy families.

"Father, do you want to communicate with Numata City, and ask Tororori Palace to put pressure on the Kurosawa family to end this war?"

Sasuke Sanada at the bottom asked.

"That adult seems weak, but he is not so easy to deal with..."

After hearing this, Sanada Motomune shook his head: "At present, in Fanshi County, my family and the Kurosawa family have the most stone heights. I'm afraid it has already aroused the vigilance of adults..."

It has to be said that in Fuso's system, it is normal for the daimyo to evade the emperor, the elders to evade the daimyo, and the samurai to evade the elders.

And even though in Fanishi County, the Kurosawa family and the Sanada family are affiliated to the Yamada family in name, but only God knows what they are actually thinking.

"For His Highness Yamada, no matter which side the main family and the Kurosawa family win, it is not a happy scene. The only thing we want is to continue to consume each other and strengthen the position of the Yamada family..."

‘Sasuke was sent to Numata Castle as a proton when he was young, but he was too deeply influenced by the Yamada family. Do I need to change an heir? '

And Sanada Sasuke didn't know that there were many intentions in his father's seemingly accidental glance.

Moreover, if Sanada Yuanzong really decided to change his heir, his end would be very miserable, whether he was directly ordered to become a monk, or exiled, or even forcibly cut seppuku.

‘However, it’s not enough right now...Let Sasuke succeed the head of the family. Behind this is the support of Numata Castle and the will of Torororiden. The main family has not yet mastered the power to compete with the Yamada family...’

Sanada Yuanzong then said: "No! How can His Highness see the cowardice of our family? Even if we all die in battle, we must abide by the way of the warrior!"

"What does father mean?"

"Ask other families for help?"

"Which of the wealthy families nearby has such strength?"

Sanada Sasuke was puzzled: "Even if there is... can my family afford to ask him to go out?"

This is really the Sanada family and the Kurosawa family. They are already among the most wealthy families in Fanishi County, except for the Yamada family. No other family is willing to intervene.

"There is another family! The governor of the ghost family, His Royal Highness Gui Yifayan, have you heard of this name?"

Sanada Motomune said.

"Ghost's eyes? Is that the powerful samurai who has the title of 'Shengui Xingzhisuke' and is rumored to have the strength of a hundred men?"

Sanada Sasuke thought about it and said: "It is rumored that he also possesses extremely powerful sorcery or onmyoji, and even defeated Shuten Doji, and rescued Xiao Ji-kun of the Yamada family. His Highness Toromari gave him three hundred stones for this. !"

"Although Gui Yidian is a powerful warrior, the Gui family is just getting started. If the family can show goodwill at this time, they will definitely vote for us, right?"

"Then what price is your father going to pay?"

Sanada Yuanzong said: "One of your elder sisters, Xiaojiang, has also reached the age of marriage... How about releasing this meaning through the Kojima family? If you can marry the Sanada family, it will help the Oni family to consolidate their status in Fanshi County. , is also very helpful! Just be quick!"

"ha!"

Sanada Sasuke naturally knew why, such a powerful samurai, maybe Hushengdian intended to marry Ji Jun, and if he didn't do it now, it might be too late.

...

"Drink!"

The light of the knife cut down, and a tree as thick as a human leg was chopped off in the middle.

"The ninja swordsman's way taught by the lord is too powerful!"

Kenichi Matsushita slowly retracted his sword, feeling the growing strength in his body, he couldn't help muttering.

Severing such a thick and thin wooden stake with one sword is the standard for entry in kendo gyms, regardless of the school, and can be awarded the title of "Sword Student".

And it took him only half a month to reach this step!

Even Kenichi Matsushita still feels that his body's ability to resist blows and resilience is constantly increasing!

Although there are still some pains and minor sequelae accompanying this, they are nothing compared to the power gained.

The master also said that because of the use of ninjutsu, the process of training must be quite hard.

But for a samurai, if he couldn't bear even this bit of pain, it would be a disgrace to the name of a samurai!

"Shota and Jianyi have already begun to engrave the third rune, and I must work harder! Swing the sword another 10,000 times today!"

Kenichi Matsushita thought silently.

"My lord! My lord! The Kojima family sent an envoy!"

At this time, an foot light ran to report.

"The Kojima family?"

As the wealthy family closest to Tomita Maru, it is natural for the Kojima family to have contacts. They have already sent envoys before, why are they here again?

"I gonna go see!"

Kenichi Matsushita came to the gate of Tomita Maru, and saw that it was indeed the same envoy from last time, who seemed to be called Kojima Yataro, with two attendants by his side. He couldn't help but smiled and said, "So it's Kojima-kun!"

"Matsushita-san! I'm here under orders. I have important news to bring to the ghost family!"

Kojima Yataro said in a deep voice, but a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The last time I saw this Matsushita Kenichi, he was just a samurai promoted from a humble body, which made people full of contempt, but now, the powerful aura of the other party made him secretly startled. (To be continued.)
