Chapter 18: Life
Iwakuin Village.
The rock walls are towering, and the peaks reach into the clouds. This fortress is hidden in the steep rock face, and even if it is not defended, ordinary ninjas will not be able to attack it.
Tokage's office building is built along a brown rock wall, half-protruding from the mountain.
From the outside, in a huge conference room in the office building, three generations of Tsuchikage are discussing important matters with the village's think tank.
Onoki had a low face, the current situation in the village was not very optimistic.
"Are the village's finances still tight?"
Loess nodded and said, "Even if I pass the mission, I'm still not optimistic. Although the daimyo tried his best to support him, he still couldn't make ends meet. In the final analysis, after the defeat in World War III, the sequelae are too great. ”
As the son of Tukage, Loess has no arrogance at all, outstanding ability, and has always been the mainstay of the village.
Thundered!
A huge energy passed through the soil, making the earth roar low. Although the tremor was only for a moment, it also relieved the pensive Onoki.
"What's going on?"
"I heard that there was an experiment in the demolition unit today, probably because of that!"
Loess smiled and explained.
Onoki nodded and continued: "During this time, let the ninjas in the village be cautious, although Konoha has gained huge benefits, that bastard of Danzo will not necessarily give up. Also, try to take as many A-level or above assignments as possible......."
Boom Boom!
This time the noise was a few points higher than the previous one, and the entire rock wall of the Tsuchikage's office trembled.
Ohnogi's face was not good, and the loess immediately picked up the conversation.
"The number of A-level and above missions has been a bit high lately, but I've heard that a new ninja village has been established in the country of birds. But in a short period of time, it became very famous! ”
"Fame? What's going on? ”
"According to the information from the Bird Country, the Bird Shadow of Luyin Village seems to have accepted the traitorous ninja Hakura of the Wind Country, and the four generations of the Wind Shadow were furious about this, and sent ten upper ninja teams, intending to go and find the field!
"Luo Sha, this guy, let a group of fledgling guys play tricks." Onoki laughed, looking like he wanted to see the excitement.
Boom Boom Boom!
The sound of a huge explosion resounded over the land, and the entire Yanyin Village was alarmed by the loud sound.
Rustling earth debris flew and boulders fell, smashing into the roof of Tsuchikage's office, nearly smashing the entire office through.
Onoki stood up from the mud pile and roared angrily, "Deidara, bastard! ”
"Tsuchikage-sama, calm your anger!"
"This guy can't stay in the village now, or the village will be destroyed by him sooner or later. It just so happens that a new ninja village has been established in the country of birds, so let him go to Hoho and others! ”
"Yes, Tsuchikage-sama. I'm going to give Deidara an order to collect information from Dei Hidden Village right now! ”
........
"Please!"
In the luxurious residence, Hakura holds a painting of Shikamaru and bows his head, begging for a man who looks like a merchant.
Jiuzong looked at the girl in front of him and looked very embarrassed.
"Although this is a masterpiece of Bird Shadow, our booth for this art exhibition is full, and we really can't put extra works."
"Please! All you need is one booth, no matter where you are! ”
Ye Cang was cheeky and entangled. At this moment, Ye Cang's mind was thinking about his magnificent life. In the past, when she was in Shayin Village, she had taken on S-class tasks many times. The sea of swords, fire, life and death, did not make her feel so entangled this time.
Ye Cang would rather go through the sea of swords and fire again than endure the gaze of a middle-aged uncle in this mansion.
Maybe there was no way to be entangled by Hakura, or maybe he was afraid that the emerging ninja village in the country of birds would be in trouble, and in the end, Jiuzong agreed to Hakura's request.
"In that case, please take out the painting of Bird Shadow and show it to me!"
"Thank you!"
Hakura lifted the canvas and held up Shikamaru's painting and presented it in front of Kumune.
"Oh?" When Jiuzong saw the first side of this painting, his eyes widened a lot, "It's worthy of Bird Shadow, this is a new art form!" ”
"Huh?"
Ye Cang raised his head in disbelief and asked, "Is this really that good?" ”
"It's hard to say because not all people are open to a new art form. However, this painting can be left in the art exhibition. ”
"Then please leave it to Kumune-sama!"
Ye Cang breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the other party would agree so easily, so he took out the painting of Shikamaru earlier.
"By the way, what's the name of this painting?"
Ye Cang scratched his head, recalled the name of the sao bao named by Shikamaru, and said with some embarrassment: "This painting is called "Life"! ”
.......
The yellow sand was so long that it obscured the vision, and the elite of Sand Hidden Village, Shangninju, half-squatted on the ground, drank the salt water in a kettle, and recovered his exerted physical strength.
"Captain, we're almost at the border of the Bird Country."
"What's up ahead?"
Listening to the report of his subordinates, Haishu asked.
"It's with Banzhen!"
"Oh? Is it the territory of the great merchant Jiuzong? Haishu shook his head slightly, and commanded his subordinates, "Our operation this time is just for Ye Cang. Remember, don't disturb the chaebol of the Bird Country! ”
Haishu is well aware that the damage suffered by the Sand Hidden Village in the war urgently needs a lot of money to make up for it. Although there was no ninja village in the country of birds, the local chaebol was very powerful. The Land of the Winds urgently needs to cooperate with them, so it's better to be careful!
"Sea Tree!"
A shinobi quickly approached the sea tree, his forehead covered with fine sweat.
"What's the matter, you're in such a hurry?"
Haishu asked suspiciously.
"We've found traces of the Red Sand Scorpion ahead."
"What!" Haishu said in shock.
"Our people are following him right now, but the scorpion is ruthless and strong, and I don't know if our people will be discovered by him. So, we urgently need your decision whether to continue stalking him or leave him alone. ”
"Where is he going?"
"Looks like it's with Itachi!"
"What? What a coincidence! ”
The scorpion is quite withdrawn, and even in the Sand Hidden Village, few people know about him. After his defection, Shinobi's previous pursuits ended in failure, and he is a well-known dangerous figure.
"The scorpion has top-secret information about the village, and we can't ignore it. Inform all the nearby Shinobi squads that we will assemble with Itajin. This time, be sure to catch the Red Sand Scorpion! ”
"Yes!"
