quiet.

Deathly silence.

"Dear Hokage-sama," the deputy envoy of the River Country carefully considered each word: "Did you misunderstand? He is Konoe Jiro, the Konoe Jiro of the Konoe family, not the big thief you mentioned."

"You mean, our intelligence is wrong? We are deceiving Hokage-sama!?" Uchiha Tiehuo, with a cold face and an unsmiling face, stood up and said coldly.

Being stared at by the cold three-magatama Sharingan, a stream of cold air went straight down the spine to the sky, the hairs all over his body stood up, and his teeth trembled uncontrollably.

All the courage that the deputy envoy finally mustered up turned into smoke and disappeared with the wind.

Want to withdraw?

To be honest, he didn't have a good impression of the Konoe family or Konoe Jiro.

If you continue to persist at this time, there will be no good end.

Going back is the better option.

At this time, the faces of his wife and children flashed in his mind.

He felt that he couldn't say how much he liked that wife.

They were married, and the marriage was decided directly by the parents of both parties.

They had met each other briefly, but fortunately, they were not disgusted with each other.

Without too many twists and turns, they chose a date and became husband and wife.

She pretended to be gentle and generous at first, but after half a year, the other party tore off the disguise.

She always likes to stay by his side and occupy his time.

I was very clumsy, so I told him to embroider a handkerchief for him, and the pattern I chose was a mandarin duck, but it turned out to be an ugly duck!

Sometimes he would be so tired that he wanted to sleep after finishing his affairs. This stupid woman told him to give him a good massage to relax him, but in the end, his body was directly hollowed out and he felt even more tired!

Then, this stupid woman gave birth to a pair of lovely twins for him.

After giving birth, his wife's pale face made him feel a little distressed.

The two of them always quarreled from time to time, but within two days, that hateful stupid woman would squeeze in and occupy his time again.

This is by no means the result of him giving in!

Ueno Teru believed that he would never fall in love with his wife.

only......

He hoped that she could live happily and carefree forever.

That's fine.

This is enough.

Therefore, he cannot retreat.

If he takes a step back now, his family will definitely be questioned by the Konoe family.

His family will also be abandoned by the family as abandoned children.

Thinking of his wife's face and the way she secretly stared at him when she stayed by his side, Ueno Teru's body that was shaking like chaff suddenly stopped shaking.

He will die.

However, at least his wife will not be implicated because of him.

Will that stupid woman cry?

Tears for his death?

This thought flashed across Ueno Teru's mind for no reason.

Maybe?

Ueno Teru is a little unsure.

Because there is no love between them.

However, this way...

enough.

Ueno Teru took a deep breath and took out the silk handkerchief embroidered by his wife to wipe the sweat from his face. The gray duck...mandarin duck on it made him couldn't help but smile.

Ueno Teru carefully folded the square embroidered handkerchief and placed it on his chest near his heart.

What is she doing now?

I never had time to tell you, but I actually quite like you.

It's a pity that I can't tell you this in person.

I'm leaving, you have to live well!

Ueno Teru pursed his lips, looked resolutely, straightened his back, and said in a deep voice with determination to die:

"Sorry, respected Hokage-sama, respected ninja-sama, I stick to my statement, he is not a thief, he is Konoe Jiro of the Konoe family!"

Qianye watched with great interest this little nobleman from the River Country, using illusions on Uchiha Iron Fire.

Chakra is a very magical thing.

Barrier-free communication can be achieved even if there is a language barrier.

But that was from the Six Paths Sage era.

Everyone's chakra comes from himself.

After thousands of years of development, this method does not work.

Therefore, you have to resort to other means.

Illusion!

Forcibly controlling the other party's five senses through chakra can, in a sense, achieve barrier-free communication.

Uchiha Tiehuo understood Qianye's thoughts and walked up to Ueno Teru. He locked onto Ueno Teru with a biting murderous aura and said in a cold voice:

"Very well, your courage and loyalty are commendable."

He lowered his voice and said in a voice that only two people could hear:

"But do you think that if you die for the Konoe family like this, your family will be safe?"

Without waiting for Ueno Teru's answer, Uchiha Tiehuo squeezed out a stiff smile and repeated according to Qianye's meaning:

"No, the Konoe family doesn't dare to offend our Konoha family, and they don't dare to offend the Fifth Hokage.

They will announce to the public that Konoe Jiro has been killed by this thief, and you are the thief's accomplice."

"What would your family do at this time? I'm very curious."

Ueno Teru's pupils contracted, the answer to this question already appeared in his mind.

His family will not hesitate to cut ties with his family.

His wife and two children will become new victims.

Most of the time, the results produced by the answers given by others are completely different from those obtained through one's own thinking.

People are usually more convinced of the answers they come up with after thinking about it.

Because if you are not convinced, then wouldn’t you be refuting yourself?

There was confusion in Ueno Teru's eyes, and the courage he finally mustered up quickly retreated again.

He was very afraid of death, and even more afraid that his death would be of no value.

"Ueno Teru, I can give you a chance now. You won't die, and you won't face the tragedy of losing your family and your family.

Not only will you not die, your power will be able to reach another level."

To be honest, Uchiha Tetsubo's acting and verbal skills still have a lot of room for improvement.

But for the current Ueno Teru, this is no less than the devil's whisper, full of irresistible courage.

"I...I..." His face struggled.

Uchiha Tiehuo snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Do you think the entire River Country has the courage to reject Lord Hokage?"

These words made all the hesitation in Ueno Teru's heart disappear.

They, the River Kingdom, don’t even have a ninja village, so they reject Qianye?

Haha, this joke is really cold.
