Chapter 214: Praise and worship are not known, entering the court is not trending, and swords and sh
(I don’t think this chapter is poorly written. It’s considered a transitional chapter.)
The contest with Kakuzu naturally ended with the victory of Ghost Light Crescent Moon.
Even if Kakuzu was finally hit with real fire and summoned all four black mask clones, he was still no match for Ghost Light Crescent Moon.
Even Ghost Light New Moon defeated Kakuzu in the end without even turning on Sage Mode and Vulpix Mode.
There is no other way. After completing the regular practice of Water Release Chakra Mode, the blood circulation and metabolic rate in Gui Deng Xinyue's body can be said to be improving every day, so his physical fitness can also be said to be improving bit by bit every day. improvement.
Gui Deng Xinyue's current physical fitness can be said to have improved by about 30% two years ago.
In this case, the mine chakra mode was turned on, but the speed was enough to defeat Kakuzu, without even the need for other ninjutsu assistance.
Ghost Light Xinyue sometimes laments that her original wish was to become a turret mage ninja, but she never expected that she came up with the water escape chakra mode to strengthen her melee weakness.
However, with the step-by-step practice, he now looks like a barbarian from Hidden Cloud Village, without the elegance of a mage-type ninja. This also makes Gui Deng Xinyue very upset. He can only look forward to waiting until he has cultivated into the sage mode and normalized it. , and there will be some changes.

"How's it going? Did you get any information?"
In the capital of the Kingdom of Water, Tatsuya Nakamatsubayashi looked at the servant who had just gone out to inquire for news, with an anxious look on his face.
Ever since he found out about the news that the second prince, Suito Fu, had sent troops to massacre the daimyo's relatives like crazy, Matsubayashi Tatsuya knew that the game about the succession of the daimyo had reached the final moment.
Especially after he found out about Shui Dufu leading soldiers to attack the castle tower, he instantly understood Shui Dufu's thoughts.
The fact that the daimyo has not relented even though he is so critically ill means that this is the only way Shui Dufu can think of to ascend to the position of daimyo at the moment.
If Shui Dufu comes out of the castle tower alive, then he will immediately come forward to prepare for the ceremony of the new king's enthronement; otherwise, he will rush to Shui Yayan's house to show his loyalty.
"...Sir, Prince Shuidufu has come out of the castle tower!"
A simple sentence made Matsubayashi Tatsuya make an inner decision immediately.
"Quick! Prepare the car and go to the second prince's house!"
…
At this moment, not only this Zhong Na Yan, but other non-royal senior nobles and senior officials in the capital also received the news.
At the same time, Shui Dufu was also under the control of the Blood Pond Liangma and released an official announcement:
The eldest prince, Shui Masahiko, was ungrateful and regarded the past training of the daimyo as a suppression of him, so he took the opportunity to poison the daimyo. This was also the root cause of the daimyo's recent physical discomfort.
And he didn't stop there. He believed that the reason why the daimyo was so disgusted with his eldest son was because the royal family "slandered" him every day around the daimyo, so he frantically massacred all the royal families in the city.
He even tried to sneak into the castle tower to kill the daimyo when he was seriously ill. Fortunately, the presence of Ghost Lantern Xinyue from Kirigakure Village prevented this conspiracy.
After being captured, Shui Yayan was questioned by Gui Deng Xinyue. He was so ashamed and his conscience was discovered that he bit his tongue and committed suicide in the prison.
The daimyo Sui Keita also died of anger due to Sui Masahiko's various actions.
As a result, the position of daimyo fell on the head of the second prince Shuidu Fu.
When the nobles and officials in the city heard the news, they couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, which made a significant contribution to the warming of the ninja world.
We are all old foxes, so we naturally know who was responsible for the massacre of the royal family in the city.
Why did Shui Masahiko make the first move and wanted to secretly assassinate the daimyo? Fortunately, Ghost Lantern Xinyue of Kirigakure Village stopped him, and then both of them died... Do they really think that they just eat, sleep and play with women every day?
Behind this series, who doesn’t know that you Shui Dufu is behind this?
Although everyone had some expectations about Shui Dufu's ruthlessness, they never expected that he would be so ruthless!
After all, it's okay for you to say that you killed your eldest brother. Shui Yayan is your direct competitor, so it's okay to kill him.
But the fact that all the clansmen with inheritance rights in the city were killed, and most importantly, his father was also killed, really made all the nobles in the city shudder.
All the royal families in the city, his eldest brother, his father... He is directly destroying his own clan!
That is to say, Uchiha Itachi hasn't appeared yet, otherwise these two people could compete for the title of the strongest filial son in the ninja world.
But it was precisely because of this ruthlessness that the surviving nobles in the city immediately decided to visit the future daimyo and express their loyalty to him.
After all, a glimpse of the past revealed that this man was so cruel to his own relatives. If they were not wise enough, you could easily figure out what Shuidu Fu would do to them using your brain.

A week later, the castle tower.
Nobles gathered and officials arrived. Everyone put on solemn attire and lined up in two lines silently, waiting at the gate of the castle tower.
The objects and buildings in the castle tower that were originally destroyed by blood and fighting have been repaired over the past week by people working overtime.
Even more than repairs, all the places that could be renovated were urgently renovated. Where can the current castle tower still have the dilapidated scene of blood and corpses everywhere last week?
And it is in this place, today, that is the big day when Mizutofu officially takes over as the daimyo and sits on the throne.
The purpose of these noble officials standing here is to wait for Shui Dufu, who went out to pay homage to the late king, to come back and formally sit on the throne.
In the initial contacts with Shui Dufu in the past few days, the noble officials also had a deeper impression of the second prince.
He has a bad temper and a narrow mind, and his character is even worse than before.
Because just a few days ago, he chopped off the heads of several nobles in front of everyone.
The reason was that these people were the last ones to show allegiance to him. He thought that these people were convinced on the face but not on the inside, so he forcefully asked his men to chop off the heads of these people in front of all the noble officials.
This move immediately frightened the surviving noble officials, who paid more attention to their words and deeds, for fear that they might inadvertently anger him in some way and end up in jail.
"I'm coming!"
At this moment, the sound of ritual music came from the distant streets. Everyone present realized that Shuidufu had returned from worshiping his ancestors, and immediately braced himself to prepare to welcome the new daimyo.
"Welcome to you!"
When the sedan arrived in front of everyone, everyone immediately knelt down according to etiquette. They didn't want to have a three-clan entertainment over this trivial matter.
But to their surprise, the person walking out of the sedan was not rich!
It turned out to be the Ghost Lantern Crescent Moon!
And he is still wearing a military uniform, wearing armor and carrying a ninja sword, Ghost Light Crescent Moon!
Gui Deng Xinyue looked at the nobles kneeling in front of him and smiled inexplicably.
"you……"
In shock, someone immediately stood up and wanted to scold Gui Deng Xinyue, but Shui Dufu immediately stood up from behind Gui Deng Xinyue.
These two people actually rode in the same sedan!
When the man saw Shui Dufu appear, he quickly suppressed what he wanted to say. He knelt down in panic and grabbed the ground with his head.
But because Gui Deng Xinyue was standing in front of Shui Dufu at this time, this group of people seemed to be kneeling to Gui Deng Xinyue.
Shuidu Fu seemed to turn a blind eye to all this. After a simple return gift, he passed through the crowd, led the ghost lamp and crescent moon through the long passage, arrived at the inner hall of the castle tower, and sat on the throne.
Of course, the Ghost Lantern Crescent Moon stands at the lower left.
The people who followed him also filed in and took their positions according to the usual order.
Naturally, someone here noticed the appearance of Ghost Light Crescent Moon, especially his stance and the ninja sword at his waist. This was undoubtedly against the rules.
But thinking about the incident where the two of them were riding in the same sedan just now, the official who originally wanted to stand up and accuse him thought about it and then backed away.
As expected, the first order Shuidufu gave after becoming a daimyo was about the ghost lamp and the new moon.
"...The adopted son of the late king has a ghostly lantern and a crescent moon. He is extremely loyal and brave, and he observes etiquette and self-denial... He is specially praised and worshiped by no one. When he enters the court, he goes to the palace with swords and shoes, and is given the title of prince!"
