Chapter 80: Goodbye
Chapter 80
"Hmm."
While listening to the words of the Buddha, Tsuruma read the contents of the scroll in his hand.
In fact, the content of the task is very simple.
Simply go to a large city in the Water Country and destroy an enchantment inside the city.
As for the client of the quest and the state of affairs inside the enchantment, there is no explanation on the scroll.
That's why the Buddha said that in order to carry out a mission, it is necessary to find a Vortex who is proficient in the enchantment.
Although it is possible to destroy the barrier with the power of physics, it is very difficult, and when it is broken, it will inevitably cause a lot of movement.
So in fact, the next focus is on the explanation of the Buddha.
The Buddha's expression became serious, and he said, "This task is related to the internal affairs of the Water Country, so you must pay attention to the confidentiality of your identity when performing the mission." ”
"Yes!" Pillar nodded.
From this, he could deduce that in the barrier that he needed to destroy, there were important people or objects related to the water realm.
The client of the mission is supposed to be in a high position in the Land of Water, so his identity is not even known to the pillars who carried out the mission.
The reason why this quest will be released to the Thousand Hands Clan is also very simple, just like the Daimyo of the Fire Country, those politicians in the Water Country are naturally using the ninja families in the country to check and balance each other.
Therefore, if this task is entrusted to the ninja clan under his command, it is easy to be suspicious.
And although the Thousand Hands clan is not afraid of any ninja family, after all, it is involved in the internal struggle of the Water Country, so it is naturally better to hide their identity.
It is precisely because of this realization that the pillar's brow gradually furrowed, and it is quite difficult to hide his identity in this type of mission.
Since the main point of the mission is to destroy the enchantment, it needs the help of the Uzumaki clan who are proficient in seals and enchantment-type ninjutsu, but because of this, if the enchantment is broken too easily, the ninja family in the water country is naturally easy to associate with the Uzumaki clan.
Of course, the Senju clan, which is related to the Uzumaki clan, is also difficult to hide.
Actually, this is okay, after all, as long as the other party is not allowed to grasp the conclusive evidence, even if the ninja clan in the water country knows it, they don't dare to do anything to the Thousand Hands clan.
But because of this, the Uzumaki clan will be hated by those ninja families.
In the history known to the pillars, the final demise of the Uzumaki Clan may have something to do with the elements of his mission.
Due to the super abilities of sealing and enchantment, the Uzumaki clan has been hated by many ninja families...
"Ugh." Pillar sighed inwardly, of course it was impossible for the Thousand Hands Buddha to not consider this.
can be the strength of the Thousand Hands Clan right now, even if the Uzumaki Clan is hated, those ninja clans don't dare to do anything on the bright side.
However, if with the establishment of the five ninja powers in the future, the Thousand Hands clan gradually disappeared in the ninja world for some reason, the so-called lips and teeth are cold, even if the nominal Uzumaki clan still had Konoha as an ally at that time, but it was hindered by the agreement between the five major powers.
The Vortex Clan... It may become a casualty of political coordination among countries.
But that's just the history that Tsuruma knows from the original work, and the future history needs to be experienced by himself.
The Thousand Hands Clan, the Uzumaki Clan, and the Uchiha Clan.
It is not yet known what fate these families will head.
"You go and prepare, although the mission is chosen by you, but in the process of carrying out the mission, all your actions must be under the command of the Thousand Hands Deed."
Buddha said that although Zhuma had some experience in performing tasks before, the involvement of this task was really complicated.
In this regard, the pillar is not dissatisfied, and the status, experience and strength of the Thousand Hands Deed are above him at this time.
Zhuma immediately set off to prepare, and during this time, the Buddha Zhao came to the Thousand Hands Deed and explained the details of the task to him.
After getting ready, Pillar Ma took a look at the tile and plate rooms that were still in cultivation, and as for the door room, he had already gone on a mission with the ninjas of the clan a few days ago.
He and the Thousand Hands Deed immediately went to the country of the vortex.
Unlike the Uzumaki clan a few years ago, when reinforcements were in dire straits, there was plenty of time for this mission, so neither Tsuruma nor Senjutsu had to rush frantically.
But what is more cautious than last time is that when operating in the territory of the Fire Country, it is natural to avoid the eyes and ears of other ninja families in that area, especially the Uchiha clan.
So when they were in a hurry, the two chose to bypass the city.
About three days later.
The Pillar and the Thousand Hands Pact reached the eastern coastline of the Fire Country, and here, cargo ships controlled by the Thousand Hands clan went to sea.
The two disguised themselves a little, disguised as staff members on the cargo ship.
The cargo ship sails to the land of vortex.
In this era, there was almost no trade between countries, but there were exceptions, namely the Land of Fire and the Land of Vortex.
Of course, the two countries were able to establish a bridge of trade, naturally because the Thousand Hands Clan was strong enough, and the Daimyo of the Fire Nation mediated the rest of the ninja families in the country.
It can be seen that at least this generation of Fire Country Daimyo is not a sake bag rice bag, in this era where ninjas are the mainstream and big fists are the last word, it is natural to have some skills to be able to do this.
You know, the country of the Vortex is centered on the Uzumaki clan, and the world knows that the Vortex and the Thousand Hands are allies.
Therefore, in history, the cooperation between the Senju clan and the Daimyo of the Fire Nation did not start with the original Hokage Senju Pillar.
The speed of the cargo ship was very slow, and Tsuruma had not had much experience of riding a ship before, but fortunately he did not react to seasickness.
It was about a week before the cargo ship slowly docked off the coast of the Vortex Country.
Whew!
Taking advantage of the somewhat hazy seaside environment, the pillars and the Thousand Hands quickly disembarked and swept into the interior of the island.
The two did not hide their figures.
So I soon met the Uzumaki clan who stayed here on the coast and was responsible for monitoring the coast.
At this time, both Pillar and Thousand Hands had already returned to their usual outfits for carrying out tasks, and after docking the code with the Vortex Clan, the two of them swept straight in the direction of Vortex Village.
About half a day later, in the evening, the outline of the village appeared in front of the pillars.
Whirlpool Village.
After passing the scrutiny of the guards at the entrance of Vortex Village, the two were ushered into the village.
Of course, the scale of the village in front of you cannot be compared to the future Konoha Ninja Village, but compared to the relatively modern architectural style of Konoha Village, the Vortex Village has a strong sense of antiquity from the outside.
Of course, this kind of ancient feeling is not familiar to the pillars, after all, even if it is ancient, it is the neon of ancient times.
The whole village gives the pillars some strange feelings, perhaps because the Uzumaki clan is good at sealing, and dense black lines can often be seen on the buildings of the village.
and a slightly familiar ghost face pattern between the columns.
Like those grimace masks that Orochimaru saw on the former site of the Uzumaki clan near Konoha.
The faces are hideous and ugly to death.
However, the atmosphere of the village is not bad, and the red hair that will almost disappear from the ninja world in the future is very conspicuous.
Vortex Village seems to be a place with a serious aging population, and on the way to where the patriarch Uzumaki Ashina is, the pillars picked up a lot of old people, but without exception, their spirits all seem to be very good, and the chakra fluctuations under their perception are also extremely abundant.
Under the leadership of the Vortex people, the Thousand Hands Deed and the Pillar finally came to the place where the patriarch was.
After entering the hallway, through a long corridor made of wooden planks, the two came to a spacious room.
When he walked outside, he already sensed the chakra inside the house.
More than one person.
"It's her..."
The pillar was slightly stunned, although he didn't know how to perceive it back then, but for people who had a slight impression in contact, he was also able to judge the identity through chakra fluctuations.
After a slight fluctuation in his mood, he regained his composure, and the door was opened, revealing the scene inside.
The patriarch Uzumaki Ashina sat at the table in the depths of the room, and in front of it, the girl stood with great prowess.
The long red hair like a waterfall is extremely eye-catching, and it immediately catches the eyes of the pillars.
