Chapter 171: Who Grieves
A figure jumped up in the dark forest, the sound of smacking came from far and near, that figure was Ye Zi who had just come out of Konoha, killing Kato with his own hands, but the expression under the mask was calm.
At this time, Bai Jue suddenly came out of a tree and walked side by side with Ye Zi.
Ye Zi thinks that his perception is not bad, but he can't feel the elusive white absolute every time.
"I've seen many ninjas defect from the village after killing their close companions, but I'm curious to see how you're feeling right now." Bai Jue looked sideways at Ye Zi and said with a smile, with obvious schadenfreude.
Ye Zi glanced at him through the mask and asked, "You've always been there?" ”
Bai Jue said: "Yes, you don't want to blame me for not showing up to help you, right?" ”
Ye Zi retracted his gaze and was silent.
If Bai Jue had made a move at that time, he could have easily escaped Kato's pursuit, and the moment he stopped, he made a decision.
He is well aware of the horror of the Spiritualization Technique, and in the face of Kato Tsu, who can also use the Spiritualization Technique, it is the most stupid thing to do to keep his hand.
But if you kill it, you will kill it, at least there will be one less threat in the future, and the talent of Kato Decisive Commander is no less than Orochimaru, and now that Konoha has lost such a talent, in the next war, it is equivalent to breaking several fingers, which is also the result that Ye Zi is willing to see.
According to the information gathered by Bai Jue, among the major ninja villages, the Konoha family is the largest, and as expected, they will definitely be able to win the war.
Ye Zi doesn't have the ability to control the ninja war, but it's not a bad thing to use this to consume the strength of the ninja village, leaving the scroll that records the defense and supply routes of the rock ninja without deep thought, but if it can consume the strength of the rock ninja, it would be the best.
"Gee, you're not going to be angry, are you?" Bai Jue looked at Ye Zi, who was silent.
Ye Zi directly put aside this question and asked, "Have you succeeded in the forbidden scroll?" ”
Bai Jue spread his hands and said regretfully: "I originally got it, but when I met a powerful guy, I was robbed." ”
When Ye Zi heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "With your ability, who can keep you?" ”
Bai Jue was slightly embarrassed, if it wasn't too big, it wouldn't be a problem to escape, but he wouldn't say this, so he replied: "It's Bo Feng Shuimen, this guy may have to become famous in the ninja world in the future." ”
"He..."
Ye Zi thought silently, it was a small pity that he didn't get the forbidden scroll, this time the goal of returning to Konoha ended in failure, but it didn't matter, when the war arose, or after the war, he had many opportunities to go to Konoha again.
Although the desire for the Forbidden Scroll is not as strong as it used to be, it is not impossible to get a glimpse of it.
As soon as it came to the Water Gate, Bai Jue directly told Ye Zi about his judgment of the Water Gate's ability, beware that Ye Zi would not be caught off guard when he encountered the Water Gate in the future.
Hearing Bai Jue's narration, if it was Ye Zi before, I am afraid that he would be so excited, because the ability used by Shuimen may be related to space-time ninjutsu, but after receiving Madara's baptism, he didn't care so much, he just kept a bottom in his heart, and he wouldn't know anything when he met Shuimen in the future.
The two gradually moved away from the direction of Konoha Village and headed towards Kyoto, the land of fire.
Xiao's first step is to collect money, to catch up with this period, it is very unrealistic to make war money, if you want to quickly collect money in a short period of time, in addition to receiving a high reward on the black market, there is another way, that is, the wealth of the Yunhe family.
He once said to Yunhe Muzi in his heart that he would never see him again, and he didn't want to see him one day, but he needed Yunhe Muzi's assistance.
The current wife of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and the head of the Yunhe family, these are not important, the important thing is that the Yunhe family has a lot of wealth.
"It's a pity that because of your death, the black market bounty has been revoked, otherwise I would have exchanged you for a large sum of money, why bother running around so much." During the boring journey, Bai Jue habitually said some unnutritious words.
In this regard, Ye Zi usually chooses to ignore it, although Bai Jue is still happy to do it...
…………………………
Kato died, and the funeral took place as scheduled.
The black color was pulled from the tombstone to the outside of the garden, continuously, forming a strong contrast with the scene after Ye Zi's death.
Kato Broken has always had a wide range of popularity in Konoha and outstanding ability, so he is one of the candidates competing for the position of Hokage, and the funeral after his death will naturally be attended by many people.
Tsunade seems to have lost her soul, silently staring at Kato's tombstone, while Kuyukina is accompanying her.
Anyone who is strong at heart, as long as there is weakness, there will be times when they are vulnerable.
Ape Fei was also dressed in black, standing in the queue in the front row.
The atmosphere of wartime is becoming more and more urgent, and the sudden death of Kato is a real loss for Konoha.
According to the post-mortem investigation, Kato's body surface did not suffer any substantial fatal injuries, and this method of death usually occurs on the enemy who fought against Kato, that is, the result of being attacked by the spirit technique.
It is undeniable that there are other ninjutsu that can achieve this kind of killing effect, and it is mainly related to the speculation of spiritualization.
The only thing that was affected by the battle was a severed tree root, but in addition to the scrolls left by the enemy and the humanoid trees left behind after the on-site battle, Ape Fei was most concerned about.
It wasn't an ordinary tree trunk that was used in the stand-in technique, but a wooden clone... That is, Mu Dun's wood clone!
The scroll was not a trap scroll, but a scroll that recorded the route of the Iwa Shinobi's armament and supply, but its authenticity remains to be examined.
Compared to the scroll, Ape Fei cares more about the products after the wood clone.
Mu Dun... The original Hokage's signature retreat.
In Konoha Village, there was an experiment in which refined and cultivated intercolumnar cells were injected into the human body, hoping to create a ninja who could use Wood Escape, but it failed.
Individuals who volunteered to be test subjects were killed by the explosion of intercolumnar cells in their bodies, resulting in the explosion of trees in their bodies.
At this point, the experiment was sealed, and the idea of creating a ninja who could use Mu Dun with human power became a delusion.
And now, Mu Dun appeared without warning, for this person, Ape Fei had no clue, and the key points involved were Kato's death, Mu Dun, scrolls, and the dress of the red cloud on a black background.
(Correction here: The outfit of the red cloud on a black background was only after Ye Zi joined, and before, it should have been only black.) )
"It can't be the result of that experiment." Ape Fei looked at the tombstone surrounded by flowers and dismissed the speculation.
"So, who is it? Being able to use Wood Escape must have something to do with Konoha and this can also explain why the other party can sneak in quietly. ”
Faintly, Ape Fei felt a trace of unease.
After the ceremony of honoring the deceased, the black stream of the cemetery disperses.
Tsunade still lives here, and there are other people who accompany her, namely Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Kuyukina, and Bo Feng Shuimen.
A group of people, dressed in black, stayed here like this.
Jiu Xingna looked at Tsunade, sighed faintly in her heart, as if she had thought of something, and couldn't help but look in the direction of Ye Zi's tombstone.
The weight of a person in the hearts of others may be seen by a funeral. (To be continued.) )
