Chapter: 3468

"He then said: 'Now, the leader is Menma. As for all matters concerning the Ito family and all external resources, she should have full authority to decide. In theory, if she doesn't proactively tell me about this matter, I shouldn't inquire about it either.'"

Tanaka Hiroshi nodded slightly and said: "You're right, but... but this is indeed too unusual. If there's no major event happening, Miss would never mobilize ninjas, let alone the four great ninja clans' all ninjas, at once. If not handled well, it might lead to big troubles...'"

Ito Nohi sighed and opened his mouth: "I've already given up my position as leader to Menma, so theoretically I should unconditionally trust her, support, and respect every decision she makes. Succession of the throne or rule by the old king has always been a point of internal turmoil, and Ito family was able to reach today because all previous leaders have made great efforts to avoid such things happening. I also can't start this trend.'"

Tanaka Hiroshi hesitated for a moment before nodding: "I understand what you mean...'"

Ito Nohi nodded slightly and instructed the subordinate who had come to report: "You go ahead, don't tell anyone else about this matter anymore.""

The subordinate immediately bowed deeply and respectfully shouted: "Hey, yes!'"

He then quickly turned around and left.

Ito Nohi continued to arrange his potted plants, but noticed that Tanaka Hiroshi seemed very distracted beside him. He put down the pot he was holding and said calmly: 'Tanaka, believe in Menma, she won't make any irresponsible decisions.'"

Tanaka Hiroshi looked embarrassed and said: "You're right, I shouldn't be overly concerned...'"

Ito Nohi nodded slightly and smiled: "That's it, these few potted plants need to be taken care of today. Time is tight!"

"Hey!"

Just then, Ito Nana walked in with an anxious expression, saw Ito Nobuyuki and Tanaka Hiroshi arranging potted plants, and immediately hurried over to say: "Father, please forgive me! I just gathered all the ninjas from the four major families without your consent. Please bear with me!"

Ito Nobuyuki smiled and said: "Nana, as the leader of the Ito family, you don't need my consent to make any decisions."

Ito Nana bit her lip, tears suddenly welling up in her eyes, and choked out: "Otosan... Yechen-kun is in trouble..."

"What's going on?" Ito Nobuyuki exclaimed. "Yechen-kun is having trouble? Someone as talented as him shouldn't be having any real troubles, should they?"

Ito Nana's tears were already beyond control, sobbing: "This time... Yechen-kun has been targeted by the top-notch mercenary organization, Wàn Lóng Dōng. They've sent people to attack his family..."

"Wàn Lóng Dōng?" Ito Nobuyuki felt a dizziness in his head and blurted out: "How did Yechen-kun manage to get into trouble with them?"

Ito Nana shook her head and said: "I don't know the details, but today I confirmed Yechen-kun's identity. He's actually the descendant of the Yanjing Ye family, so he went to Yanjing to attend a funeral ceremony for the Ye family. They say that the Ye family has an ancient grudge with the leader of Wàn Lóng Dōng, and they're determined to wipe out the entire Ye family..."

Ito Nobuyuki exclaimed: "So Yechen-kun is a member of the Ye family?"

After saying this, Ito Nobuyuki asked her again: "You urgently gathered all the ninjas from the four major families just to help Yechen-kun in Yanjing?"

"Ito Nana firmly nodded and said: 'Leaf Chen-kun owes me a favor, now he's in trouble, I can't just sit idly by!'"

Ito Nobuyuki spoke with a complex expression, saying: "But... four major families' ninjas aren't the opponent of Wàn Lóng Dōng at all..."

As he said this, Ito Nobuyuki continued: "Wàn Lóng Dōng's situation, I still have some understanding - tens of thousands of elite mercenaries, hundreds of top-notch experts, such strength is only rivaled by the world's top three families, and no other commercial family can provoke them, including us."

Pausing slightly, Ito Nobuyuki continued: "A few years ago, Yamaguchi-kai engaged in some illegal business and had a friction with Wàn Lóng Dōng in the Middle East. That time, Yamaguchi-kai lost hundreds of members to Wàn Lóng Dōng's small tactical team with less than twenty people, not a single one survived. Since then, Yamaguchi-kai has been walking cautiously in Japan whenever they hear the words 'Wàn Lóng Dōng'..."

Ito Nana blurted out: "Eudo-san, I don't care about this stuff, no matter what, I'll do my best to help Leaf Chen-kun, even if it means dying in China, I won't hesitate!" JrNovels.com
