Gou in the ninja world

Chapter 242 The Cage
Where Yukimura is now is a small room with a size of about ten square meters, with a bed, a table, a small toilet covered by a curtain, and a door made of fine steel. The iron door, and the little transom above the iron door.

"Is this the place where the empire specially used to imprison ninjas?"

Yukimura looked around the room, glanced left and right, looked at the surrounding facilities, and murmured.

Like the iron gate, the walls on both sides are also made of fine steel, and there will be a dull echo when knocked on it. There is a strange magic-like thing engraved on the wall and ceiling, which should be used to Suppress Chakra, not only in the room, but also in the corridor outside.

As a human being in two lives, this is the first time he has experienced the feeling of entering a prison cell. The entire cell is very quiet. It seems that there are no other people except Yukimura and Qin on the opposite side. From here, it can be seen that the nearby How miserable the life of a ninja is, there are not many in the prison, either they have been killed, or they are deeply hidden and dare not show their faces.

"It's not easy to escape from this place."

As he thought about it, he had to say that the defense here is very strong. Judging from the route he came here before, this prison should be located tens of meters underground from the previous building. It is suppressed, and the outside is covered with fine steel. It is quite difficult to break through whether it is from the outside or from the inside.

Needless to say, inside, it is difficult to use chakra just because of the layer upon layer of suppression. In fact, Yukimura tried it himself, and it is almost impossible to extract chakra normally, let alone break through the outer layer of fine steel cage. up.

In another direction, if you come in from the outside, you must first attack the building above, which is very similar to the police headquarters in this city, just the samurai and ninjas you have seen along the way, oh, in this world they are called ninjas There are no less than a hundred armed forces of wild dogs and hunting dogs. According to logical reasoning, there must be many hidden ones. Although most of them may only be at the level of ninja, individual combat effectiveness alone cannot explain many things.

The level of science and technology in this world is very advanced. Yukimura has discovered this since he came to the city. Whether it is a city full of traffic, the sky railway driving in mid-air, or a series of special inspections before entering, it all shows that This point has even surpassed his previous life on a certain level.

In contrast, the overall decline of the ninja's strength, at least in Yukimura's view, the ninja's strength here does not match their positions.

Take the middle-aged Hyuga who caught him as an example, judging from his conversation with the old man and the series of procedures that followed, his status in this city is not low, at least at the level of a team leader. Such a position, at least in Konoha Village, can only be held by a special Junin, but the feeling he gives himself is only at the normal level of Junin.

Maybe other people can't feel this feeling, but for Yukimura who just came from another era, the difference is very obvious.

If it is said that the ninjas outside are hiding in Tibet and have no energy and resources to practice, which leads to a decline in strength, then the ninjas belonging to the empire should not have these restrictions, right?
Is it because of the rapid development of science and technology that personal force cannot be improved because it has no place to be used?Or, is the empire consciously reducing the combat effectiveness of the ninjas?
Intuition tells Yukimura that the answer is likely to be the second.

"Is it forbidden to use martial arts?"

All he can think of for the time being is this answer. Use hard knives for rebels and soft knives for supporters, but the ultimate goal is to completely eliminate the ninja class. Is this the ultimate goal of the empire?

He lay on the bed and thought for a while, thinking of many possibilities, but judging from the information collected so far, he couldn't decide which one was the most likely.

Forget it, I don't want to.

He immediately shook his head and gave up all the reasoning in his mind.

Let the main body solve this kind of brain matter, I am just a cute shadow clone, just do my job, why worry so much?
Still think about how to save people from here.

He looked up at the steel ceiling above.

Should I directly use force to fight it out, or should I notify the main body to open Wushuang?
Although there are spells to suppress Chakra here, shadow clones can also do something like the Yin Seal. Although the Chakra stored in it is not too much, if you save some money, you can at least break out of this prison. .

However, it is so troublesome to say.

Moreover, he heaved a long sigh, will the group of voyeurs above here give him a chance?
Thinking like this, he looked at the camera facing him openly in the upper left corner of the room, tilted his head, and finally gave a high middle finger to it.

"Is this the kid?"

At the same time, 50 meters above where Yukimura's shadow avatar was located, in a luxurious office, a middle-aged man with blond hair was sitting on a seat, looking at the screen in front of him, and the screen facing him. Yukimura, who pointed the middle finger, sneered.

"Yes, Minister."

Hyuga Tokuma, who led the team to capture Yukimura, stood behind him and nodded in confirmation.

"Sure enough, it's different from other ninjas."

The eyes of the middle-aged man were slightly fixed. The former ninjas were caught here, and they either waited for death or tried to escape from prison. It has been a long time since Yukimura, who seems to have no worries, seems not worried at all. seen.

This kind of person is either heartless or has some reliance. Judging from Yukimura's age and behavior, the chance of being heartless is not very high. It is unlikely to be due to his own strength, otherwise he would not have been caught here, so it should be the background behind it.

From this point of view, Hinata Tokuma's deduction is somewhat reasonable, but it is really possible that he is a person from that place.

The middle-aged man crossed his hands and rested his chin, meditating.

Obviously, the difference of the times and the particularity of the shadow clone made them confuse the truth, and regarded the shadow clone's fearlessness as another situation.

"Naive boy."

After pausing for a moment, he suddenly snorted coldly, his deep gaze stayed on Yukimura's face on the screen for a few seconds, and then he said slowly in a serious tone.

"Soon he will know what real terror is."

"Minister, is the torture unit ready?"

Hyuga Tokuma asked from the side. He knew that his chief had just transferred a group of such people from above a few days ago.

The so-called torture troop is a special troop in the empire that is responsible for torture and interrogation. Any one of them is a cold-blooded butcher, proficient in the art of mind and illusion. As long as they go out, there is almost no information that cannot be obtained.

"Ah."

The middle-aged man nodded.

"It was originally prepared for the little girl, but the news just came from above that the little girl is not allowed to be interrogated and asked us to hand her over directly to the people above."

"why?"

Hyuga Tokuma frowned and said, the little girl they were talking about was the Qin that Yukimura and the others planned to rescue, and the person who caught her was also Hyuga Tokuma. After she was captured, she was kept in the cell below. They tried to run out, but they failed every time. During the process, some characteristics of the Qin body caught their attention. In order to obtain more information, they applied to call the torture team.

It's about to start, but now, you tell me that interrogation is not allowed?Why?
"Could it be because..."

Immediately afterwards, Hyuga Tokuma's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something, so he said thoughtfully.

"Don't say that name."

Seeing this, the middle-aged man frowned, shouted, and cut off his words.

"The rules of the empire, we can't ask about things we shouldn't know, and don't say things we shouldn't say. You should be clear about this, and you don't want to become like your brother, do you?"

"sorry."

Hearing this, Hyuga Tokuma's body trembled suddenly, he lowered his head heavily, his face was covered with sweat, and he looked extremely frightened.

"Ah."

Seeing his reaction like this, the middle-aged man nodded in satisfaction and said, this is the right way.

So, he didn't delve into it here, and then thought about it, and changed the subject.

"By the way, Tokuma, I heard that some time ago, your son was found to have a talent for cultivation."

"Yes."

Hyuga Tokuma replied that when it comes to children, his eyes can't help showing a touch of joy that cannot be concealed.

"It is said that it has the nature of the five elements of fire and wind, and it is considered the best in the next generation of our family, so my father has decided to teach him personally."

"Oh? It seems that the right minister is also full of confidence in your young master, which is very good."

The middle-aged man also said happily when he heard the words.

"In recent years, the level of the younger generation in Onmyoji has been getting lower and lower, and there are fewer and fewer people who can practice. It is indeed something to be happy about having an outstanding junior."

"Yes."

Hyuga Tokuma replied, then sighed slightly, with a bit of regret.

"Originally, Meizi and I planned to celebrate him, but unfortunately, we were disturbed by this kid."

He looked at Yukimura on the screen. If it wasn't for the sudden alarm, he should be celebrating his son with his wife now, instead of working overtime here at night. Thinking of this, he couldn't breathe where to come.

"Don't worry, this situation won't last for a long time. As long as that thing is developed, the group of mice can no longer hide."

The middle-aged man said so, with great hope for the so-called "that thing" in his tone.

"is it?"

Hinata Tokuma said pleasantly that his level is a little lower than that of middle-aged men, so he doesn't know much about it. He just knows that the empire is secretly preparing a secret weapon, but he doesn't know much about it.

"Is that thing really that powerful?"

"Don't worry, that thing is much more powerful than you imagined."

The middle-aged man said in a slightly mysterious manner, with a cold smile on his face, and said each word in a low tone.

"As long as that thing can operate successfully, everything in the world will be invisible, and the empire will truly rule the world."
