Aoba nodded, and said a rough idea of what had happened recently. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It turned out that after they arrived in the land of earth, they had the same idea as us, and went straight to the Valley of the Wind, intending to secretly sabotage their actions if they encountered the ninjas of Iwakure, and if not, they searched all the way to other rifts until they reached Iwakuin Village, and then decided on their next move.

However, when I arrived at the Valley of the Wind, I immediately noticed signs of someone coming, and when I went deeper, I could see the damaged rock wall, which seemed to have undergone some drastic changes. Several people had a faint feeling in their hearts that they seemed to be late, after all, Tsunade's action against the land of earth was only thought of after receiving the commission, and at that time, Iwakure should have also clarified his mission and started to work on it a long time ago.

Aoba decided not to stay elsewhere and rushed to Iwakuin Village in one go. However, when conducting reconnaissance outside the village, it was found that Yanyin Village had entered a state of combat readiness, and all entrances were very tightly guarded, and it was impossible to sneak in secretly, but after waiting for two days, they did not find the arrival of the task client, which showed that they should still have hope.

Several people dispersed, gathered some information on the outskirts of Iwain Village, and finally learned about some changes in the land country.

Several Great Rift Valleys with a long history are spewing hot sulfur-smelling smoke from time to time, these mists are not only poisonous, but also high enough to melt steel, and it is precisely because of this that all the ninjas sent by Iwakure on missions have failed and suffered many losses.

Aoba was secretly glad that the few people on his side hadn't gone too deep into the Wakaze Rift, otherwise, I was afraid that they would also encounter that kind of poisonous fog.

The people of Iwakuin did not give up, and after several unsuccessful attempts, they asked the people of Yuyin to help, doused the smoke at the bottom of the cliff with water, and put on a mask to collect the particles of the soil, but after they succeeded to the end, the deep rift suddenly shook, and the rocks rumbled above, and the rock crevices rolled below, and all the ninjas were not spared and were buried in the deep valley.

Konoha's team had been following Iwa Shinobi all the time, watching them run around, and for a month, neither side had found anything, so it was a stalemate.

It's just that Yamashiro Aoba is afraid that his successors will venture rashly, so some mechanisms have been laid on several rifts near Konoha to warn them, which really came in handy at this time.

"Drink~! There has been such a big change in the land country, why don't you send a message back to the village? ”

"There's no way, as soon as the ninja eagle was released, it looked extremely flustered, and it couldn't move normally at all, I also thought about it, if there was still no progress in a few days, I would send someone back to report." Aoba didn't move, and explained softly.

"Oh? Why is that? "And this kind of thing?

"I don't know. I've been trying to sneak into Yanyin Village for the past few days, but I've never succeeded, so probably the only way to find the answers to all these questions is there~? Aoba frowned and looked in the direction of Iwakure, his straight body like a javelin, not trembling in the breeze.

I shrugged my shoulders and replied noncommittally, "Well, I'll go tonight." ”

Aoba nodded, and didn't say much, just let us sit and rest, and then instructed Kobayashi and the two shinobi to find water.

Speaking of which,There's no subordinate relationship between me and Yamashiro Aoba.,There's no relationship between subordinates.,Usually there's no contact.,But,He's special.,I'm a shinobi.,He's always half a head lower than me.,Although Tsunade doesn't have any special instructions.,But the current situation.,It's natural to focus on me.。 Of course, Deidara's upper ninja was ignored by me, and as for Aoba's view of Deidara, I don't know.

At this time, looking at his commanding appearance, there is no trace of impetuousness and impatience, and I can't help but be secretly surprised, who is it, squatting here for a month and still no result, I'm afraid it will not be able to hold its breath, right? Although I am not here to ask for guilt, in any case, the village will send one (two!) People with higher ranks than themselves came here for the same task, and logically speaking, there was always urging and dissatisfaction in the middle, but Aoba didn't explain anything too much, nor did he emphasize his difficulties, but just said what he needed to say and did what he should do, and he was calm and calm, which was really admirable.

Soon the shinobi had returned, with some tubers dug up from the barren mountains nearby, and a few sapy plants—the only things that could be eaten by the land-based people who had been under lockdown in recent days.

cough~ I can't help but feel a little surprised, relying on the convenience of being a mage, I have never suffered like this!

At the moment, he took away the things in the hands of a few people, picked some special delicacies from the village from the package and distributed them, "Hehe~ Thank you for your hard work, change the taste~!" Then he took out the water and knives, processed the food he had just collected one by one, dug a pit and buried the residue deeply, and then handed half of the tuber and plant juice to Deidara, "Well, let's also taste the specialties of the land of earth!" ”

The faces of the four members of the advance team all changed color slightly. I brought them fresh food, which was nothing, and it was nothing to take away the coarse tubers, but I didn't throw it away, but ate it in front of them, and it made them feel completely different.

Kobayashi and Aoba, in particular, had worked with me, and they understood the fact that I was a mobile warehouse to some extent, and they were even more impressed by my actions at this time.

I didn't do it on purpose, but mostly out of curiosity. Deidara returned to normal a little after seeing Aoba and a few people, and frowned at what I handed over, but still didn't say anything, and ate it with a smile.

In fact, the wild tubers are not very difficult to eat, slightly bitter, but overall they are still sweet, raw and crisp, but the juice is really unpleasant, sticky like the blood of some kind of creature, and has a spicy taste. In any case, they are stationed here, worried day and night, and they cannot start a fire, they can only eat raw food, and the hardships are self-evident,

My act of sharing their weal and woe brought them closer at once, but they remained silent after days of waiting. Deidara sat there with her head bowed silently with her food in hand, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Huh?" With a gesture of my hand, a small whirlwind blew through it, stirring the long strand of hair on his forehead.

"Ah," said Deidara, looking a little lonely, and brought the tuber to her mouth, ate it in a few bites, and took the cup of plant juice and drank it down.

I suddenly remembered that Deidara lived alone away from the village, and he didn't think much of taking care of himself, so I'm afraid that he didn't eat less of these things, probably reminding him of the past, right? I couldn't help feeling a little guilty, flipped my hand, took out a bottle of wine and threw it over, "Here you go!" ”

"Huh?" Deidara looked up at me, surprised, and confused.

"Drink!" I tilted my head, a smile on my lips.

Deidara stared at the bottle in her hand, took a deep breath, opened the lid, drank it in one gulp, and then sat there again.

Raising his eyebrows, ignoring him, he got a clone out, sealed it, and let her go to find out the news, while he left to discuss the current situation of the various rifts in the land country in detail with the map and Aoba.

Speaking of which, I don't like to seal my doppelganger very much now, because they are often gone, and the images that come back after they disappear are all strange and incredible, and what I have heard makes me admire their imagination very much, and there are so many ways to have fun, but the ability of the doppelganger after sealing is obviously stronger and more durable, so in the case of predicting that danger may be encountered, it is also a last resort.

Clones:

Dive in, dive in, huh!

I'm really too lazy to use my brain~ It's better to enter from the waterway~

Although it's Iwakure, it doesn't mean that there is no water source, and the general ninja village is still built on water, otherwise it will not be possible to guarantee the residents' daily water, and Iwakure is no exception.

However, unlike Konoha, the water source of Iwakuin is not an open river, but underground water flowing from a culvert, and since both ends have to pass through a cold and long underground river, there is no need to worry about enemies attacking through the waterway, and the defense is much more relaxed, except for a small sentry at the exit.

Crossing the underground river was a trivial matter for me, who could use magic breath and shapeshift, and the only trouble was to keep a shield on my body at all times and stay dry. Soon, he reached the exit of Iwain Village, and after stealth, he gently paddled through the water and floated up.

The guards didn't notice my arrival, so I swaggered ashore under his nose, looked around, jumped onto the roof, and followed the instructs of the Tsuchikage's house.

Along the way, I tried my best to use my energy to suppress the chakra in my body, and I was not afraid of being discovered, but I was not sure if I would still be so good in front of the shadow-level characters, so when I saw the roof of the Tsuchikage Mansion, my speed slowed down.

Perhaps, we should wait until late at night to move on? I hesitated and stopped where I was.

The night is getting darker, and the lights of the Tsuchikage Mansion haven't been extinguished for a long time, ho~ It seems that the Tokage is also quite hard~! It's not better than Tsunade~ I don't know if it's because of a series of strange things that have been messed up recently~

As the minutes ticked by, I began to get impatient, as a doppelganger, time is the most precious resource! I'm still going to devote this limited life to infinite amusement activities~ What? You say that the doppelganger is used for sacrifice?! Cut! I've never had such a thought~! Of course, it has to be completed, but I prefer a face-to-face oral presentation rather than a "poof" puff of white smoke and it's done.

In the middle of the day, I began to get more and more irritable, walking up and down the roof, quite restless.

At the same time, outside the Iwain Village, in the camp where everyone was hiding, the thorns who had been summoned for the duty of vigil also showed uneasy emotions, their back fur exploded, their tails like steel whips erected, and their mouths let out a low growl.

All three adult ninjas woke up immediately, only the children had finally been able to relax from their long-standing tensions, and had fallen into a deep slumber, completely unresponsive to this level of interference.

"What's going on?" I asked in a low voice.

"The breath of a very large amount of energy, in the direction of the village." Thorn replied with squinted eyes.

"Huh?" I took a closer look, but found nothing.

Both Aoba and Deidara were also listening with bated breath, but apparently they didn't get anything.

Although animals are much more sensitive to their senses than humans, if the force is strong enough to make the thorns palpitate, there's no reason why we shouldn't feel them at all!

"This aura - very complex, contains both sacred and evil connotations, although it is similar to the ninja chakra, but I can feel the characteristics of the onmyoji's mana fluctuations-" Thorn said with some hesitation.

Aoba's face twitched, and I couldn't help but laugh in my heart, and then I looked at Deidara, but it seemed thoughtful, but neither of them spoke.

Onmyoji~ Interesting, now I'm looking forward to the discovery of the doppelganger~ What can she see there~?
