Chapter 9: The old story of thunder and cloud, three people make a tiger
. The bonfire was blazing, reflecting the night sky in the wild.
Amid the rustling sound of leaves, one could seem to hear faint shouts and chaotic movements in the distance.
The three people sat around the bonfire in silence.
Uchiha Setsuna glanced at the two of them, and then spoke with a serious face:
"The real danger of this mission comes from an unexpected event."
"Just half a month ago, the Blood Pond Clan submitted a confession to the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder for the third time."
"However, the envoy sent back by the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder was beheaded on the road, and the reward was exchanged for the underground gold exchange."
"The Daimyo of the Land of Thunder was furious and wanted to continue to imprison the Blood Pond Clan."
"And the desperate Blood Pond knew that there was no way out, so he secretly contacted Kumogakure."
"The Kumogakure will send people to liberate the Blood Pond. In exchange, the Blood Pond Clan will be incorporated into the Kumogakure Village and become the bloodline family of Kumogakure."
Uchiha Seiichiro was immediately puzzled: "Isn't the Blood Pond itself a bloodline family of the Land of Thunder? How could it negotiate such conditions with Kumogakure?"
Uchiha Ci shook his head slightly. He had guessed this point after reading the original work.
In the Warring States Period, the Blood Pond Clan had a daughter who married into the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder as a concubine.
Not long after, the daimyo died of illness, and the daughter of the Blood Pond family was envied and slandered, and the family was exiled to the Hell Valley.
To put it bluntly, the Blood Pond family had already become nobles, so they were naturally unwilling to lower their status and join the Hidden Cloud Village to fight and kill.
They would rather continue to stay in the prison in the Hell Valley, hoping that one day they would be pardoned and become nobles in the Land of Lightning again.
Now that the hope of pardon is shattered, there is no hope to continue, so they can only bite the bullet and join the camp of the barbarians in the Hidden Cloud Village.
The Hidden Cloud Village is also happy to see this happen. The Ninja World War is imminent, and the Blood Pond family is a good fighting force.
Who knows, the messenger who was chopped was the work of the Hidden Cloud Village.
After understanding this, Uchiha Ci looked at the whole incident again, and he felt like he had seen the sun after the clouds had been cleared.
The great elder Uchiha Setsuna did not explain too much to Qingyilang, but said solemnly:
"You only need to know that the biggest danger now is Kumogakure, that's enough."
"So, the first priority now is to reach Jigokudani safely and join the Uchiha clan there."
"It will be night soon, Qingyilang, you and Ci will take turns to keep watch and set up warning traps around."
"That's all, do it."
Uchiha Setsuna waved his hand lightly and instructed Qingyilang.
Qingyilang did not get an answer, but got a lot of dirty work, and he got up cursing with a lot of resentment.
At this time, Uchiha Ci's eyes lit up slightly, and he asked:
"Then why don't we travel at night?"
"In this case, shouldn't we reach Hell Valley as soon as possible?"
Qingyilang showed a look of contempt, glanced at him with a slanted eye, and said disdainfully:
"It's ridiculous!"
"Boy, you haven't even read the Ninja Code?"
"Do you want me to read it to you? The first rule of the code is that ninjas should try to avoid marching at night to avoid ambushes."
[Uchiha Qingyilang despises you. ]
Looking at the subtitles floating in front of him, Uchiha Ci couldn't help shaking his head in his heart.
This is the truth, but if we really follow the normal way and set off tomorrow morning.
Wouldn't that make the crouching Kumogakure squat in vain?
He left the village for three things, that is, fighting, fighting, and fighting!
Moreover, Uchiha Ci's point was not without basis.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Ci smiled and stood up:
"Analyze the specific situation."
"It's dark and windy tonight, and I can't see my fingers. Let alone hiding people, I can't even find toilet paper when I'm squatting in the toilet. Plus, we are Uchiha, I don't know what you are afraid of?"
Ci's confidence lies in the Uchiha's bloodline limit, the Sharingan.
Even in the pitch-black darkness, with the Sharingan's dynamic vision and the vision of insight into the flow of chakra, the ambush of Kumogakure is not a problem for Uchiha.
If this is achieved, then Uchiha Setsuna and Uchiha Seiichiro will have a great chance of directly rushing out of the preset defense line of Kumogakure.
And he, Uchiha Ci, has not awakened the Sharingan. ,
It is absolutely impossible to survive in such a battle!
In this way, he can die gloriously!
When the great elder Uchiha Setsuna heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyes slightly and looked at the clouds in the sky. Uchiha Seiichiro
on the side immediately sneered. Seiichiro
took two steps forward, grabbed Uchiha Ci's collar, lifted it hard, put his head close to Ci's ear, lowered his voice and said coldly:
"Uchiha Ci, I'll tell you again-"
"Because of you, I was involved in this messed up mission!"
Uchiha Seiichiro bit his back teeth, his eyes were cold, and his tone was extremely disdainful:
"Who do you think you are?"
"You, are you qualified to question the ninja code compiled by the second generation Hokage?"
"Do you know how many ninjas die in Konoha every year because they don't listen to the advice of the code?"
After the words fell, there was silence all around, and the wind stopped and the clouds died.
Uchiha Ci looked at Seiichiro calmly, and he could clearly see the other's cold and indignant eyes.
He paused, then said lightly:
"Senior Seiichiro, the reason why ninjas climb over the wall is because it is the easiest way."
"And it would be more troublesome to jump over it,"
"For ninjas, smashing the wall is also possible."
Uchiha Ci grinned, glanced at the other party, slapped his palm away, and said coldly:
"You, put the cart before the horse."
As soon as these words fell, a deafening and crisp sound exploded in Uchiha Ci's ears.
[Dang! ]
#Hot
springs mostly occur on riverbeds in valleys, and the hot spring country, which is famous for its hot springs, is a terrain of high mountains and deep valleys.
From the Fire Country to the Hot Spring Country, from hilly areas to high mountains.
Passing through the deep valleys between the high mountains is the only way to cross the border between the Fire and Hot Spring countries.
At this time,
under a big tree behind the pass, two ninjas wearing Kumogakure ninja costumes and carrying long swords were grilling meat with a comfortable look on their faces.
Another slightly younger Kumo Ninja frowned and asked:
"Senior Rami, Senior Dodai, will there be any problems if we relax our vigilance like this?"
"Moroi, you are too tense." The older Rami was very calm, and even handed over a roasted rabbit leg, and then explained:
"There are soup ninjas we sent to follow ahead."
"Once there is any movement, we will be able to receive the signal immediately."
"And the Uchiha people are not made of iron. They have been traveling for a whole day and are exhausted. How can they show up when they know there is danger ahead?"
"Have a good rest. This time, the Uchiha sent out the old man Uchiha Setsuna. Tomorrow will be a fierce battle."
"He must die here, so as to ensure that the two-tailed Jinchuriki destroys the garrison troops in Jigokudani."
Moroi took a look at the lineup of the three people, thought about it, and was relieved.
One elite jonin, one jonin, and him as a special jonin.
No matter how you think about it, taking down an already elderly Uchiha is also a sure thing.
Moreover, the three people present are not simple characters.
Rami, an old-fashioned jonin, has survived from the Warring States Period to the present day, experienced the peace talks of the Second Ninja World War, and witnessed Kinkaku and Ginkaku's transformation into the Nine-Tails. Countless terrifying battles have not defeated this old jonin, and he can be said to be strong with age.
Dodai, an elite jonin, one-eyed, wearing a black hat, is the right-hand man of the third generation Raikage. He has the bloodline limit of lava escape, and recently served as the chief examiner of the "Zeu Niu Lei Li Hot Blade" ability
. He is in his prime and his strength is close to the level of Kage. And he, Molloy, a special jonin, is the first captain of the Kumogakure barrier class and the confirmed successor to the barrier class leader. The sealing technique inherited from the Uzumaki clan can control even a jonin who is not careful for a while and cannot move.
The three of them can be said to be the best masters in the Kumogakure Village!
With such a lineup, even if there is another jonin team, they can't be their opponents!
In order to get the Blood Pond Clan to join the Hidden Cloud Village, the Hidden Cloud Village has made a huge investment this time!
Once the hawkish leader of the Uchiha arrives,
he and his team will all be buried here!
Please collect and read! This is really important!
