"Black Feather? The legendary Black Feather? " Tokugawa Ieyasu was stunned at first, then his expression changed drastically. He straightened up and asked anxiously, "Do you mean …"
"That's right. This mysterious army of hundreds of people is made up of Black Feather Ninjas." Long Zhijie put down the teapot, picked up the tea, and gently blew it.
Hearing this, Tokugawa Ieyasu sat down heavily. The combat power of tens of thousands of ninjas had already shocked him. Now, he heard from Long Zhijie that Matsumoto Takeyoshi had a Black Feather Army made up of hundreds of Black Feather Ninjas! Tokugawa Ieyasu's heart fell into an ice hole.
Just those tens of thousands of ninjas were enough for Matsumoto Takeyoshi to have the power to divide the world with him. If this Black Feather Army was added, Tokugawa Ieyasu didn't dare to think further.
He knew the strength of the Black Feather Ninjas best, because Keiko outside the door was a Black Feather Ninja! He had seen Keiko's ability with his own eyes when he was choosing his personal bodyguards. Ten superior ninjas used their ultimate skills to attack Keiko at the same time. Keiko didn't even draw her sword, and in one move, all ten of them were severely injured. This was even when Keiko was in a state of learning from each other. He couldn't imagine the power of hundreds of Black Feather Ninjas like Keiko gathered together.
Keiko outside the door frowned, and her face was solemn.
"If what you said is true, why is Matsumoto Takeyoshi willing to be my minister? With his strength, wouldn't it be easy for him to replace me?" Tokugawa Ieyasu was a veteran after all, so he quickly calmed down.
"To say something disrespectful," Long Zhijie held the teacup and said, "General, your position is nothing to him. He's interested in the world of the Ming Dynasty."
Tokugawa Ieyasu was silent.
Long Zhijie was right. With Matsumoto Takeyoshi's strength, his position was nothing to him. Compared to the vast Ming Dynasty, the small Dongying couldn't even be considered a province of the Ming Dynasty. Matsumoto Takeyoshi naturally coveted Great Ming Dynasty.
"Amaterasu Great God also told me that Matsumoto Takeyoshi has secretly worshipped the Evil God Xie Tian as his master. Xie Tian is an ancient Evil God of Japan and his cultivation is extremely high. Even Amaterasu Great God has to be wary of him." Mentioning Xie Tian, Long Zhi Jie's expression became serious, "With Xie Tian's help, Matsumoto Takeyoshi's chances of winning have greatly increased."
"Phew …" Tokugawa Ieyasu let out a long sigh and stood up. He walked to the door and opened it again. This time, he didn't open it to admire the snow scenery, but to let the cold wind outside wake him up.
"Over ten thousand ninjas, the Black Feather Army, the Kusanagi Sword, and the help of the Evil God Xie Tian. I think it won't be long before Matsumoto Takeyoshi will be able to rule the world." Tokugawa Ieyasu's words revealed a trace of helplessness.
Thinking of how he normally favoured Matsumoto Takeyoshi, Tokugawa Ieyasu closed his eyes and shook his head. He felt that he was a complete idiot. He was being played in the palm of someone else's hand and he was still enjoying it. He understood in his heart that once Matsumoto Takeyoshi became the emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty, what would happen next? Wouldn't his small country have to pay tribute year after year and become a subject every year?
If he lowered his head to Matsumoto Takeyoshi who used to be his subject and became a subject, wouldn't he become the laughingstock of the world if this was spread out? Where would the Tokugawa Clan put their face?
Perhaps the only thing he could do at that time was commit suicide and die for his country.
"Pa!" Thinking of this, Tokugawa Ieyasu slapped the door frame with his hand.
"General doesn't need to worry too much. If it really was like this, I wouldn't have needed to come to general's door today." Long Zhi Jie softly said.
When Tokugawa Ieyasu heard this, he was first stunned before immediately reacting. He turned around and quickly walked over to Long Zhi Jie, "What does mister mean?"
From Long Zhi Jie's words, he could hear that there was still a chance.
"I won't hide it from general. I came this time to help general and solve your worries." Long Zhi Jie said.
"There's still a chance?" Tokugawa Ieyasu's eyes lit up.
"Matsumoto Takeyoshi is indeed strong. Recently I heard that he transferred 13 peak experts from Japan and their cultivations are not low. From this, it seems that his actions in the Great Ming Dynasty are not very smooth." Long Zhi Jie put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Like general said, the Great Ming Dynasty has many talents and experts. If Matsumoto Takeyoshi wants to smoothly achieve his ambitions, it won't be that easy."
"Mister's meaning is that Matsumoto Takeyoshi's actions in the Great Ming Dynasty are blocked?" Tokugawa Ieyasu asked.
"That's right. I heard the Great God Amaterasu say that a peak expert from the Great Song Dynasty has already reincarnated. This person is destined to be Xie Tian's nemesis." Long Zhi Jie said seriously, "The Great God Amaterasu also told me that the Nine Supreme Cauldrons have experts secretly protecting them. So even if Xie Tian and Matsumoto Takeyoshi work together, it won't be easy to obtain the Nine Supreme Cauldrons. "
"So it's like this." Tokugawa Ieyasu slowly nodded.
Speaking like this, there was still a chance. Tokugawa Ieyasu's extinguished confidence was once again ignited.
"As the saying goes, if the name isn't right, then the words won't follow." Long Zhi Jie said to Tokugawa Ieyasu, "This time I received the Great God Amaterasu's order to visit general. I ask general to give the general's order and I will immediately head to the Great Ming Dynasty. "
"Mister wants to go to the Great Ming Dynasty?" Tokugawa Ieyasu asked in pleasant surprise. If Long Zhi Jie personally went, their chances of success would be even higher.
"That's right. I'm prepared to secretly work with the righteous people of the Great Ming Dynasty to deal with Matsumoto Takeyoshi." Long Zhi Jie said.
"That's great." Tokugawa Ieyasu happily said, "With mister personally going, we will definitely be able to return victorious."
Long Zhi Jie smiled and didn't say anything. To be honest, he didn't know if this trip to the Great Ming Dynasty would be able to stop Matsumoto Takeyoshi. After all, Xie Tian was an ancient evil god and his strength was unfathomable. From the current situation, only by working with the experts of the Great Ming Dynasty would they have a chance of winning.
"Mister, there is something I don't understand. I ask mister to enlighten me." Tokugawa Ieyasu was happy, but he suddenly thought of something.
"General, please ask." Long Zhi Jie replied.
"Since the Great God Amaterasu already knew about Matsumoto Takeyoshi's ambition, why didn't he arrange for mister to inform me beforehand?" Tokugawa Ieyasu asked, "That way we could have prepared ahead of time. We could have eliminated Matsumoto Takeyoshi before his wings were fully grown. Why did he have to wait until today to have mister inform me? "
