After meeting Biwako, Hanyu returned to the courtyard, and just as he turned a corner in a corridor, he ran into a middle-aged man.
The other person was dressed very traditionally, with a few strands of white hair on his head, and a stern face, looking like the "head of the family"... He seemed to be waiting for Hanyu here.
"Master Hanyu, from now until the wedding, the safety of this place is in your hands."
The other party bowed politely, thanked you seriously, and entrusted you with a serious matter, but the first impression it left on people was not politeness, but rather rigidity.
"Your Excellency is..."
Hanyu stood a few steps away from this person, with his hands hanging down, ready to either continue the conversation or draw his sword directly depending on the situation... His reaction was very much in line with the style of a ninja. When facing strangers, no matter what the occasion, one must always remain vigilant.
"My name is Tsutsumi, and I'm the father of Biwako." The man bowed slightly to Hanyu again and gave a brief self-introduction.
This identity could explain why he knew Hanyu's name.
"So it's Lord Tsutsumi... This is our responsibility. It's related to the task assigned by the Third Hokage. We will try our best to do our best from now on." Hanyu said.
If you take the initiative to help a son-in-law kill his father-in-law, will you get praise from the son-in-law... At least not on the surface, so no matter from which perspective, after knowing the other party's identity, Hanyu certainly would not have the need to take action.
"Is this the order from the Hokage?" Tsutsumi pulled the corners of his mouth and forced a smile. "Indeed, giving rewards to the winners and punishments to the losers, isn't this the duty of the Hokage... I hope you will work hard."
After saying that, he saluted again, then walked around Hanyu, step by step, and disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
This guy... his words sounded a little strange. Hanyu turned around and stared at the place where the other person disappeared. Then his expression became thoughtful.
A black cat appeared from the top of the wall, then jumped down from it, landing silently in the middle of the scroll behind Hanyu. However, it walked gently to the front, exposed its head, and looked in the direction Hanyu was looking at with some curiosity.
It was confused and puzzled, because there was clearly nothing over there.
Hanyu curled up his index finger and gently scratched the black cat's chin, then he withdrew his gaze... Don't forget that he is on a mission now and doesn't have that much time to observe humans.
At this time, everyone has divided into groups of two and scattered throughout the house. They have also prepared some simple barriers and other arrangements... Barriers are different from each other. In comparison, the barrier at the Shadow Stream base is a "permanent fortification" that must be explosion-proof and earthquake-proof. This side is just a temporary fortification, so it can be built simply.
Calculating the time, the Third Hokage's wedding will be held in ten days, which means that Hanyu and his team's mission deadline is within these ten days. As long as they can isolate the danger here during this period of time and prevent bees and butterflies from coming to the bride, then it will be considered a success.
Frankly speaking, neither of these two situations is likely to happen, so even though Hanyu just said something about trying their best to carry out the mission, their mission is just to stand guard, and the so-called effort is at most to stand straighter.
However, later that day, the first accident happened. Three "uninvited guests" came here...
It actually doesn't matter where these three are, but the Third Hokage shoved them here just to get rid of the trouble and out of sight, out of mind.
In this period when the Third Hokage is extremely busy, Jiraiya, Orochimaru and Tsunade have become the kind of people who are considered redundant wherever they are put. However, because they are the most valued disciples of the Third Hokage, they cannot "disappear without any news" until the wedding begins. Instead, they have to show their presence.
So the Third Hokage found a suitable position for them that was neither too big nor too small, and also found someone who was neither too tall nor too short to be able to keep an eye on them.
It is gratifying that there are three more capable members joining the escort mission.
When they arrived here, the carefree Jiraiya walked in front of the three people, and just when he was about to step directly into the door, Hatake Sakumo who was guarding here rushed out in an instant and grabbed him with quick eyes and hands.
"What's wrong? What's the problem?"
Sakumo's actions just now were a bit rough, so Jiraiya was pulled in a daze... He was stopped outside the door. If they didn't know each other and Hatake didn't draw his sword just now, they would have to fight.
Sakumo nodded, and then said, "We have already set up a protective barrier here, and for safety reasons, we have also set up some traps, such as this door... If someone attempts to pass through the door, and the barrier technique does not sense that the other person is carrying an identification object, then we will immediately launch an attack."
As he spoke, he pointed to a spot inside the door where a scroll was hidden that was not easily noticed. "The scroll will immediately unfold and then shoot kunai and shuriken at a 60-degree wide angle and a height of 0 to 3 meters within a range of 30 meters in front."
Jiraiya blinked, and when he realized what Hatake was saying, he instantly felt a sense of fear...
"This...what is this thing? Has there been such traps in the village before?"
It seems that there is none, Sakumo then explains, "Hanyu provides the ideas, Uzumaki... the others provide the techniques, we call this the 'Broadsword Anti-Ninja Trap'."
Hatake almost blurted out the word Uzumaki, but luckily he held it back.
Tsunade behind him frowned slightly. This unique naming method, strange working principle, super excessive lethality, and a large amount of resource waste in the attack are undoubtedly the characteristics of Hanyu.
However... isn't that the case? The broadsword should be buried at the door, even the door of the Hokage's fiancée's house should not be an exception.
There is no enemy that cannot be defeated by a single broadsword, and this is what the so-called "anti-ninja" means.
Orochimaru's eyes suddenly became bright, "Can I study it up close?"
"Wait a minute, I will teach you the IFF technique first, so that you won't get hurt by mistake."
As he spoke, Sakumo handed the three scrolls to the three men respectively, and then taught them how to unfold and use them. After making this preparation, Orochimaru ran to study the scrolls impatiently.
Tsunade followed into the courtyard .
Jiraiya... he wanted to jump up and down, he was almost shot into a sieve just now. Damn it, there was only a bride in the yard, not a nuclear bomb, was this level of defense necessary?
"Is it safe? I hope I won't accidentally touch it."
It's just a pity that there is no way to vent this complaint. It can't be that the ninja is wrong for carrying out the mission, right? So Jiraiya could only ask Sakumo who was still waiting on the side.
"Safety."
Sakumo gave an affirmative answer.
"What if I touch it by mistake?"
Jiraiya still felt uneasy.
Sakumo gave a thumbs up and said, "Then at least it won't cause you any pain."
Jiraiya: "…"
Yes, there is no pain at all, even the pain nerves can't react, and then death is the end.
It sounds... quite reassuring. What's even more reassuring is that when Jiraiya was about to pass through the door, there happened to be a "pure amateur" Orochimaru inside who was still fiddling with that thing.
When two dangerous things are put together, the risk factor instantly increases a hundred times.
Jiraiya gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and finally made up his mind. He took off and rushed through the door and into the courtyard.
Sakumo was speechless for a while. Uzumaki's skills were certainly trustworthy, so there was no need to be so jumpy.
By the time Jiraiya entered the courtyard, it was finally safe.
Then he glanced around and found Tsunade and Hanyu sitting in a small pavilion in the yard, and Tsunade was now teasing a black cat.
"Hanyu, what is the name of this cat?" Tsunade asked.
The black cat is undergoing a psychic beast training experiment, so even though it is essentially still an ordinary black cat, it now looks very different from before... Not only has its body size expanded, but its fur is also as black as silk.
This product is very healthy and the meat is delicious.
"Name? A cat is a cat. Does it need a name?"
Hanyu thought, does stored food need a special name? Would anyone specifically name a grain of rice "Mi9"?
But when he saw Tsunade's unfriendly look, he immediately changed his words and said, "Just kidding, I've already thought of a name for the black cat... um, it's called Chidou."
"Chidou?"
It didn't sound like a temporary name, and Tsunade's expression relaxed.
Well, the difference between real small animal protection and fake small animal protection is obvious.
At this time, Jiraiya came up to Hanyu and whispered, "Hanyu, it's a bit too despicable to use small animals to attract girls' attention."
"…"
Hanyu thought to himself, I just raise a cat, how can that be despicable? Your thoughts are even more despicable.
However, no matter how softly Jiraiya spoke, Tsunade could still hear what he said at such a close distance. But just as her eyebrows began to rise, quite abruptly, a very rapid "knock knock knock" sound came from the door.
Sound familiar? It's like the sound of a small blade being launched with great force and piercing into wood.
Hanyu stood up suddenly...
Idiot, which idiot stepped on my broadsword?
