Chapter 14: Ueno Kaori

  、、、、、、、、、、

  The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist have undergone many changes in nature, originally being an organization with seven members each equipped with a unique sword that suited their ninja abilities. They were tasked with completing high-difficulty missions for the Hidden Mist Village. However, during a period of turmoil and war, a new generation of elite killers emerged to replace the original Seven Ninja Swordsmen. This transition was not peaceful, but rather a bloody struggle.

  To obtain one of the legendary swords, individuals had to prove themselves by defeating the current owner and taking their sword. This led to a situation where anyone with enough strength could inherit a sword and earn the title of "Seven Ninja Swordsmen," regardless of their background or allegiance. Over time, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen transformed from an organization into a term that represented exceptional strength.

  The group no longer had a unified purpose, and its members were constantly changing due to the high mortality rate. The biggest issue was the diverse and conflicting identities within the group, which led to internal divisions. Eventually, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen became a motley crew of individuals with questionable backgrounds, including wanted criminals, traitors, and bodyguards.

  This was no longer the same organization that had once worked together to address issues in the Hidden Mist Village. The original purpose and unity were lost, replaced by a group of individuals driven by personal interests and a desire for power.

  Finally, the original mission of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen has long since vanished without a trace. In other people's eyes, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen is already a thing of the past, a non-existent organization. However, the ninjas who hold the title of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are absolutely the most powerful ninjas in Kirigakure! The Seven Ninja Swordsmen has essentially changed, but its essence remains the same, and its spirit still exists. Please recall the deaths of Zabuza, Raiga, and Kisame - regardless of whether they were good or evil, their members will never betray the title of "Seven Ninja Swordsmen". The Seven Ninja Swordsmen is a hereditary title, not a real organization.

  "Seven people of the Shinobigatana are from Kirigakure, how can I not get my hands on the village's essence!" As he slaughtered his way to the Mizukage Tower, Chūshin muttered to himself.

  "But the current Seven Ninja Swordsmen, long ago ceased to exist for the purpose of defending Kirigakure and Mizukage, it has become a title symbolizing that whoever kills the original owner and takes one of those seven swords can obtain the title of Seven Ninja Swordsmen! Now only one sword, Samehada, remains in the hands of Tenzen Daikokubo of Kirigakure!"

  "But I, the young master, only learned swordsmanship to show off, let alone competing for those seven swords." Chu Ni smiled lightly, he believed that his strength would definitely surge in another year, but now in Wuyin Village, except for Zhao Mei Ming, no one knew Chu Ni's strength and still thought he was a waste.

  "Mastering swordsmanship is not just about showing off, but also hiding one's true strength and bursting out to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy during battle! That's what it means to be a ninja!" Chu Ni continued with a light laugh, after entering the village, he slowed down his speed on the rooftops, for now, Chu Ni didn't want the villagers to know that he had made progress.

  "I don't even know how Jūichirō has progressed so quickly, he just graduated from the Academy of Ninjutsu and just became a Genin!" While saying that, Uchiha came to the Mizukage's office building and entered into the Mizukage's office!

  When she heard that Chu Ni wanted to learn swordsmanship, Zhao Mei Ming smiled slightly!

  "Sister isn't very good at knife skills, sister will arrange a teacher for you! How about that!" Then Zhaomei Ming immediately smiled at Chuyi.

  "Ah! Thank you, sister!" Chu Ni heard this and hurriedly smiled, his heart involuntarily looking forward to who would be assigned as his teacher by Zhuo Mei.

  "Hehe! Wait a minute, she just finished her task and returned to the village. My sister will call her over right now!" Seeing Chu Ni agree, Zhuo Mei Ming hurriedly smiled and said, she was really afraid that Chu Ni wouldn't be willing, wanting her to personally instruct!

  "Jianlang, go to Ueno's house and call out Ueno Kaoru. Tell her I need to see her!" Then, Shou Mei Ming said softly towards the outside of the door!

  "Yes! Mizukage-sama!" The Jonin standing guard outside the door immediately bowed respectfully upon hearing Terumi's words, then swiftly stepped aside.

  "Ah! Sister, why did you introduce a woman to me?!" After hearing Zhaomei Ming's words, Chu Ni was surprised and exclaimed in front of him. As soon as he heard the name, he knew that the teacher Zhaomei Ming had assigned to him was a woman!

  "What? You don't know about Ueno Kaori, little brother?" Upon hearing Chu Ni's words, Shou Mei Ming was also surprised and looked at Chu Ni as if Ueno Kaori was a big shot!

  "I... how could I possibly know her." Upon hearing Shou Mei Rin's words, Chu Ni was filled with doubt. Could it be that Ueno Kaori really had some background, otherwise why would his sister assign him to her? However, Chu Ni didn't recognize Ueno Kaori, and neither did Shou Ku Rin in his memories! But somehow she seemed familiar!

  "Hehe! Well, I'll tell you then! Ueno Kō is currently the strongest swordsman in Kirigakure Village and is our village's special Jōnin!" Seeing Chūsetsu's expression, Terumi smiled lightly and also knew that Chūsetsu had little contact with outsiders since childhood, so it was normal not to know about the Ueno family.

  "And Ueno Kaori is a renowned family in our village, and the genius Jyuzaburou who just graduated from Ninja School is also from the Ueno family, and he's Ueno Kaori's younger brother!" Shoumi Mei continued.

  "That... is so amazing..." Chu Ni heard the words and let out a soft "ah", he really hadn't expected that Cho Juro had an older sister, and in Kirikiri village she was a renowned lady from a prestigious family! A member of the Kamino family!

  "Hehe! Ueno Kō is still a great beauty, isn't she? How's that? Is your sister treating you well?" Seeing Chu Ni's surprised expression, Zha Mei Ming couldn't help but giggle again and gazed at Chu Ni with a flirtatious look.

  "Ah! Thank you, sister! You're really great!" Chu Ni exclaimed excitedly, loudly praising Zha Mei Ming.

  "Hehe! As long as you don't forget about your sister, that's all that matters!" Zhaomei Ming heard this and smiled slyly, but after opening her mouth, she realized that what she said was a bit ambiguous, and her pretty face couldn't help but flush slightly red. Fortunately, at this time, the person sent by Zhaomei Ming had also returned! And a tall and beautiful woman walked into Shuiying's office!

  "Master Mizukage!" A tall and beautiful woman walked in, bowing respectfully to Mizukage, then curiously glanced at Chūjō standing before him, wondering how he ended up here.

  Hearing the pleasant sound of wind chimes, Chu Ni simultaneously turned his head to look at the newcomer, and suddenly his eyes lit up. The beauty in front of him made his whole body feel a thrill!
