Assignment Event: The Legendary Shinobi

Senpai, I've been looking into the rash of kidnappings that have been taking place in the castle town lately...

...and I've finally managed to track down the kidnappers' hideout!

？！

So this is their hideout? Come on then, let's go kill 'em all before they know what hit 'em!

Shh. A moment, please. I take it you are all from the Chaldea clan?

Who are

I am Momochi Hassandayu, a humble shinobi.

I have been looking into the human traffickers operating around here as well, and finally succeeded in tracking them to this hideout.

If you charge in spears swinging now, there's no telling what they might do to their prisoners.

Might I suggest we work together here?

...All right, take them to our main headquarters.

And don't forget to stop by the castle town and spread the rumors that it was Nobunaga who did this.

You punks're trying to pin your crimes on the boss, huh? Not for long you won't be!

What the!? Who are you people!? Oh, never mind that! We can't let them leave now that they've seen us! Kill them!

S-stay back! One more step, and they're dead!

P-please, help me...

？！

Oh? Now you're taking hostages, huh?

And that's s'posed to stop us how, exactly!?

Wha!? Don't you care if they live or die!?

I can't believe this! All right, fine! Kill them all!

Heh. I see you don't hesitate for a moment, Lord Mori. If these villains are going to resort to cowardly tricks, it's only fair that we not let the law constrain us either.

And of course, my shadowless ninjutsu surpasses cowardice and lawlessness alike. I already freed the hostages shortly after the fighting began.

Wh-what? Then...

Well done, Lord Mochi Mochi Hassan! Now go ahead and take them into custody!

Mochi Mochi!?

Hahahahaha! That worked out perfectly, Master! Nice job on your end too, shinobi!

Not at all. I could never have done it without your help. If I hadn't known you were acting, I would have been taken in just as much as they were.

Senpai, may I suggest we invite Lord Hassandayu to help the Chaldea clan in a more official capacity?

？！

Very well. Now that fate has brought us together, I am happy to employ my shinobi skills in your service.

I am Momochi Hassandayu, wandering shinobi.

I do have some leadership experience, so I would be happy to take charge of your shinobi brigade.

What did you say they were called? The Mini Nobu Ninja Army? Hahaha, I look forward to training them.

Momochi Hassandayu pledged his loyalty to you. (You can now choose him as an NPC.)
