Chapter 185 - 185 The Land Of Iron
The Land of Iron.
In this place, there isn't a shinobi, there are only Samurai here.
They are good at swordsmanship and have terrifying sword skills.
If a Samurai's swordsmanship reaches the peak, then their strength won't be weaker than the Kage of the Five Great Shinobi Village.
Although they are Samurai, they also own chakras.
It's just that they don't know how to use ninjutsu.
Their powerful swordsmanship, coupled with Chakra, is enough to kill the enemy with a single slash.
The strength gap between Shinobi and Samurai is almost non-existent.
A long time ago, the Five Great Shinobi Village had already agreed not to do anything against the Land of Iron. Therefore, the Land of Iron has always been in a neutral position.
Even when the first three Shinobi World Wars were in full swing, they did not participate.
When Sakumo was young, he also came to the Land of Iron.
At that time, Sakumo still hadn't mastered the Hatake Clan's Sword Technique, so he came here to sharpen his sword skills.
After staying in the Land of Iron for a year, he finally mastered the Hatake Clan's Sword Technique, and then the name of Konoha White Fang began to resound throughout the Shinobi World.
The Land of Iron is definitely a must-go place in the hearts of all those who use a sword.
It's because if they come here, their sword skills will definitely make great progress.
Although Shinobi also use swords, when it comes to the subtlety of the sword skills, except for a few people, no one can compare with the Samurai of the Land of Iron.
On this day, the gate of the Land of Iron, a ronin with a silver-white hair arrives.
It is none other than Kakashi.
"Is this the Land of Iron? It is indeed different from other places."
On the street, as long as it is a male, he will have a long sword, making him looks somewhat imposing.
However, from Kakashi's perspective, it is naturally not difficult to see that many of these people are not really good at sword, and there are only a few who are really capable.
Swordsmanship is a kind of ethos in this place, but it is obviously unrealistic to want the entire country to be a master of swordsmanship.
Although these people are not really good at sword, their bodies are much stronger than ordinary civilians.
Even if there is no skill, it is a good choice to keep fit.
"Sure enough, it is very different from the Five Great Shinobi Village."
Kakashi said as he sighed.
At this moment, the person next to him suddenly said.
"Of course, there are no Shinobi here, only Samurai."
Kakashi turned his head to look, and saw a young man in his twenties, wearing a samurai suit with a sword on his waist.
He looks quite powerful.
"You areā¦"
"Tetsuken, a Samurai. And what should I call you?"
"You can call me Gintoki."
"It's nice to meet you. It seems that you are also a Samurai."
Kakashi didn't carry a sword at this moment, but he was indeed dressed as a ronin. So it was not surprising that Tetsuken would think so.
Kakashi did not deny Tetsuken's words. He did not use the identity of a Shinobi, so naturally he could only act as a samurai.
If Kakashi said that he is just an ordinary person, he knows that this samurai named Tetsuken wouldn't believe it.
After all, in a real samurai's eyes, the aura of ordinary people and strong people is completely different.
"Yes, I'm a samurai who came here to travel. But I never expected there is such a place in the world where the swordsmanship is so prosperous," Kakashi said.
Tetsuken was also quite excited when he heard this, and said: "The Land of Iron is the territory of Samurai, so it is natural the swordsmanship is prosperous here. The outside world is dominated by Shinobi, but I believe that the Samurai will not lose to the Shinobi."
Kakashi nodded. Strictly speaking, his father was more like a samurai than a shinobi.
In other words, Sakumo is a samurai walking in the dark.
Although this is a Shinobi World, swordsmanship can also shine in this world.
"You are about the same age as me, but I can feel that you are very strong and you should be a good opponent."
Tetsuken said, looking at Kakashi with eyes that are full of fighting intent.
Kakashi is a little confused, 'What's going on? Why does he look like he wants to fight?'
"Uh, wait a minute. Tetsuken, what are you doing?"
"Of course I am challenging you."
Tetsuken said naturally, with his hand on his sword's hilt.
"Tetsuken, I didn't bring a sword, and are we going to start fighting on the street?"
Tetsuken looked around, passers-by all pointed to him, making Tetsuken a little embarrassed for a while.
So he quickly retracted his posture and said: "Then we can fight in another place."
Kakashi shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, but I didn't intend to accept your challenge."
"Why?" Tetsuken was puzzled.
"It's very simple. I'm hungry now, so I want to go to eat first."
Kakashi finished speaking, and walked into a restaurant as soon as he turned around.
"Ah?"
Seeing this, Tetsuken is just standing in the same place, 'What is this situation?'
"Hey, Gintoki, what's so important about eating? Let's fight!"
Tetsuken said as he quickly followed after Kakashi.
"Hello sir, I want to order a pan-fried saury, a bowl of rice, and a bowl of miso soup."
Kakashi finished ordering and found a place to sit down.
Tetsuken didn't want to give up at all, and sat on the opposite side of Kakashi.
"Hey, Gintoki, come and fight me. As a Samurai, how can you be afraid of fighting?"
Tetsuken said solemnly, as if Kakashi's rejection of his challenge was a big mistake.
When encountering such a fighting maniac, Kakashi is also quite helpless.
"Tetsuken, sorry, but I didn't go out this time to fight people."
"That's boring." Tetsuken said with sad expression.
Suddenly, Tetsuken looked at Kakashi with scorching eyes and said: "I know! You are coming to the Land of Iron to participate in the Samurai Conference, just like me!"
"The Samurai Conference?" Kakashi was puzzled.
When it comes to the Shinobi World, Kakashi knows a lot of things, but Kakashi really doesn't know much about the Land of Iron.
"You don't know? Then why did you come to the Land of Iron?"
Seeing Kakashi's puzzled look, Tetsuken was obviously very surprised.
"Ah, I just walk around. So what is this Samurai Conference?" Kakashi asked directly without explaining himself.
"This Samurai Conference is a grand event in the Land of Iron. Once every three years, Samurai from all over the world will gather here to conduct a competition and fight against each other. And after becoming the final winner, not only you can ask for advices about the sword skills from the leader of the Land of Iron, you can also get a rare ore. More importantly, this is a good opportunity to be famous!"
"Competition?"
"Yes, the reason I come to the Land of Iron this time is because of this competition. Tomorrow is the last day of registration. Gintoki, you should also sign up. Maybe we can still have match."
Kakashi chuckled and said: "Well, maybe I will."
