Chapter 183: Shadow Guarding Liuyi
The three of them walked into the temple of the Vortex Clan.
Then, the patriarch of Uzumaki and Mito walked through the front hall and entered the main hall of the clan temple, where he paid homage to the ancestral spirits of the clan.
At this time, Hanyu was just standing at the door of the main hall as a doorman...... It is impossible to visit the shrine, and the reincarnation technology of his life is still not at home.
However, the two whirlpools were just thinking about it at this time, so their visit was not cumbersome, on the contrary, it was very simple, so after a short while, Uzumaki Mito walked out of the main hall.
She motioned for Hanyu to follow her, then turned to the right, entering the side hall on the right.
After just glancing at it, Hanyu felt a little familiar with this place, not only because he had such a similar scene in his memory, but also because he had seen a similar place in Konoha a few years ago when he became a dark side...... In this side hall, there is nothing superfluous, except that the three walls are covered with masks.
This is the Namendo Hall of the Uzumaki clan.
So the question is, Hanyu, as a person who knows the "plot", can he find the Grim Reaper mask used to unlock the ghoul from so many masks?
…… It's unlikely, all the masks here are about the same length, and it's been that much time has passed, and Hanyu's memories can't accurately record the "details" that were inherently lacking attention.
Fortunately, there was no need for Hanyu to pick it now, but Uzumaki Mito stepped forward, stretched out her arm, and with a slight hook of her fingertips, she took a mask with an extraordinarily bright smile, a white face, two horns, and a mid-haired style.
The overall shape of this mask is unrecognizable, but it is indeed the most important of all the masks in the room, and in some ways, the other masks here exist to hide it.
Uzumaki Mito slipped the Grim Reaper mask into her wide sleeves, then she looked up and removed twelve more masks from the top row in a row, then stacked them together as if they were going to be wholesale, and stuffed them into Hanyu's arms.
"Mito-sama, this is ......" Hanyu was a little confused.
"Take it first, and you'll understand in a moment."
Uzumaki Mito didn't go into details, and then left Namendo with Hanyu. The two of them turned to the left, just as the Vortex Patriarch walked out of the side hall on the left, and at the same time he brought out a huge scroll...... The volume of that scroll seemed to be much larger than Hanyu's previous contract psychic scroll.
The height of the scroll is the same as Hanyu's current height, that is, it must be at least one and a half meters, and its diameter must be about eighty.
"Have you got the mask, Mito?"
"Got it, Patriarch."
The Uzumaki Patriarch nodded, and then shoved the somewhat overly heavy scroll to Hanyu.
"Hanyu, our next mission is to bring this scroll back to the village...... It's something that can't be missed, you know. Then, Uzumaki Mito said to Hanyu again.
There was a palm-wide strap tied to the scroll, and Hanyu was just good enough to carry it behind him.
Hanyu Shin said I can transfer this thing to the Wet Bone Forest and then send it back to Konoha, since this scroll is so important, wouldn't this be the safest?
You must know that behind him is a knife and a ninja bag, and it will be used as a habitat for slugs from time to time, and there is no extra equipment slot for a long time.
But Hanyu understood what this scroll represented, and since Uzumaki Mito and the patriarch of Uzumaki were so solemn, Hanyu's attitude could not be taken lightly, "I understand, before returning to Konoha, I am inseparable from this scroll." ”
This answer made the patriarch and Uzumaki Mito look at each other, and then nodded at the same time, they were both quite satisfied with Hanyu's attitude.
And when Hanyu carried the scroll behind him...... It's not okay not to have a horizontal back, and his height is not allowed to be vertical, so he will either smash his feet or mop the floor...... When he walked out of the Vortex Clan's temple with a mask in his hand, he suddenly found that there were already people waiting for him outside the temple.
At the front was Ziko, and behind her were twelve Vortex people, seven men and five women, all of whom were between fifteen and twenty years old.
"Hanyu-sama, you're looking at the best ninja among the younger generation of the Uzumaki clan." Zikou opened her mouth and made this introduction to Hanyu.
Hanyu's gaze first swept over the twelve young ninjas standing in a row, then he looked back and saw that the patriarch and Mito were still at the door of the main hall of the clan temple, and had no intention of walking out.
In other words, now Hanyu is facing these young people alone, and those two big men have entrusted him with all the opportunities and the things at hand. Hanyu counted the number of Uzumaki Ninjas, and then looked at the mask in his hand, which meant that he understood what Uzumaki Mito meant, and what he should do next.
Hanyu held the mask in his hand and walked to the far left of the row of Uzumaki ninjas, then stopped. What's next? Hanyu glanced at Zikou standing beside him...... Yes, her name is Zikou.
So, Hanyu handed the two masks in his hand to the left one and the left two, and said to them at the same time:
"Good ginger, white ginger."
Hanyu then distributes them to the right in order, until the very end.
"Lilacs, wood."
"Anise, Sannai."
"Mulan, Angelica dahurica."
"Pepper, grain fennel."
"Xinren, cinnamon."
Distributing masks and giving code names should be considered a ritual, and since then, these Uzumaki people are not only Uzumaki, but they have also become members of the "Shadow Stream", if you count Zikou, then with Hanyu and Hachiki Sakumo, then the organization has fifteen people.
Fifteen people is enough to form the core of an organization and fulfill its basic functions.
Normally, the smaller a country is, the higher the proportion of its riots, and in the country of the vortex, this situation seems to be no exception, with the exception of the vortex's bloodline being the most special. Therefore, although ninjas of the level of Uzumaki Mito are extremely rare, it is undeniable that the probability of giving birth to excellent ninjas among the Uzumaki clan is very high.
The twelve young people in front of Hanyu were selected from the best of the best, so what else could he say besides "True Fragrance"?
So inspired by Zikou's name, Hanyu came up with such a series of code names that are very suitable for them - thirteen Vortex Ninjas, which can be collectively called "Shadow Stream, King, Shouyi".
At the solemn and mysterious organization formation ceremony, a slightly strange atmosphere suddenly permeated the air. Well, under normal circumstances, people would call this atmosphere ......
kitchen
Or the cafeteria.
