The Hidden Mist Blacksmith, forging the glory of the Ninja Sword Style!

"They voluntarily handed over some of the Kaguya clan's assets in exchange for a considerable amount of other resources."

Overall, there was not much loss to the Kaguya clan.

"And it's even more suitable for the Kaguya clan."

"The Third Generation Lord has been very kind to the Kaguya clan."

"Under the leadership of Kaguya Shinsui, the Kaguya clan has already embarked on a proper path."

""

"By the way, when the forging department was recruiting guards, Juzo recommended two people from your clan. One was named Kaguya Izumi, and the other was named Kaguya Sato. They are both on Forging Island now."

The cat's pupils contracted slightly.

Both of these people hold special significance for the bamboo-trap cat.

One of them is the childhood friend of the bamboo cutter cat.

The two have been close friends since childhood.

Kaguya Izumi has said more than once that she wants to marry the Taketori Neko when she grows up.

But now, the cat-earer knows that this will never come to pass.

The other one is a junior whom the Taketori Neko (a dog-like creature) values.

He has great potential and talent.

The cat even felt that Kaguya Sato's talent surpassed his own.

"Senior Qing, may I go and see them? Just a glimpse from afar, I absolutely will not meet them."

Qing shook her head.

"I'm sorry, I can't make a decision right now. Let's wait until Minister Uehara returns."

At this moment, Uehara Shu and Genji had arrived in front of the Skeleton Emperor.

The phantom image of the Third Mizukage appeared.

"Master, what is it?"

"Lord Mizukage, it's like this."

Genshi repeated what the Taketori Neko had said to the Third Mizukage.

"The last test doesn't count, so you're asking for a new one? Kill a member of the Hozuki clan and steal one of the Seven Ninja Swords? This is definitely not the real Uchiha Madara."

"However, since he wants to test the Taketori Neko in this way, then let him test him."

"A member of the Hozuki clan, with only one of the Seven Ninja Swords."

"give him."

"What is this sacrifice for the sake of the village? I have already shown them enough leniency in the incident where they retrieved their ninja swords."

"Let's consider this their way of giving back to the village."

Master Yuan nodded.

"Yes, Mizukage-sama."

When Uehara Shu and Ao came out, Taketori Neko made his request.

Uehara Shu hesitated for a moment.

"can."

The three of them first approached the direction of the training ground, and looked at Kaguya Sato who was currently training there from a distance.

"Sato trains very hard."

Uehara Osamu said, "You could say that he has devoted all his time to training. Apart from his daily work, eating, sleeping and other activities, he has never stopped."

In this respect, Uehara Osamu felt that Kaguya Sato was also an extremely talented individual.

Despite such intense training, Kaguya Sato experienced no discomfort whatsoever.

Instead, they persevered.

There is still room for improvement.

It's practically a complete version of Rock Lee.

Not only in taijutsu, but also in ninja tools and ninjutsu, Kaguya Sato has made great progress.

At first, Uehara Osamu didn't expect that the Kaguya clan could produce so many talented people.

Let's not even talk about the bamboo-trawler cat.

Kaguya Sato, Kaguya Izumi, and Kaguya Shinsui are all quite good.

It can be said that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, one can grow into a powerful ninja.

"Tick!"

"Tick!"

"Tick!"

Sweat dripped down.

Kaguya Sato's clothes were completely soaked with sweat.

"Tankori Neko, I will never forgive you!"

"I am going to kill you!"

"To avenge our many kin!"

When Kaguya Sato reaches her limit, she recalls the scene from that night, and the hatred in her heart gives her the strength to continue.

"Kill you!"

The cats watching from afar all heard Kaguya Sato's voice.

However, the bamboo cat did not show any sadness, but rather felt relieved.

"Not bad, Sato."

"I look forward to the day when your strength surpasses mine."

The cat watched for a while, then looked away.

"Minister Uehara, let's go to the spring again."

"it is good."

Qing led the way.

At this moment, Kaguya Izumi was leading her team on a routine patrol, checking the situation on the island and dealing with any issues promptly.

The security of Forging Island is entirely the responsibility of the guard team.

Kaguya Izumi and the others were very clear about their work and responsibilities.

They understood even more clearly the importance of Uehara Shu to Kirigakure.

One person is more important than all of their lives put together.

The cat-like creature looked at that familiar figure, a gentle look appearing in its eyes.

"That's fine, Minister Uehara, thank you."

"Let's go back."

The bamboo cat didn't greedily look at it a few more times.

But I only glanced at it.

One glance is enough.

As the cat continued watching, it worried that it might do something unexpected.

If Kaguya Izumi were to see him, it would only bring trouble to Kaguya Izumi, Uehara Osamu, the forging club, and Kirigakure, which is not what Taketori Neko wants to see.

"Let's go."

After the three left, Kaguya Izumi seemed to sense something.

He turned around abruptly.

But I didn't see anything.

"Senior Spring Water, what's wrong?"

Kaguya Izumi came to her senses.

"nothing."

However, in her heart, Kaguya Izumi's thoughts were unsettled.

What's that familiar feeling?

Genji left with the Bamboo Cat and entered the previous meeting room.

A figure walked in.

He was holding a list in his hand.

"Tankori Neko, you can choose one of these names as your target. As for the Seven Ninja Swords, you can choose any of the other four except for Hiramekarei, Raikiri, and Samehada."

The cat-like creature nodded.

"Yes, Elder Yuan."

"I won't make arrangements for you, otherwise Madara Uchiha will definitely become suspicious. You should act according to your own judgment and try your best to avoid causing too many casualties."

"I'll pay attention."

The bamboo-cutting cat left.

Continue the previous disguise.

the other side.

"Water escape, water formation pillar!"
