Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Target Emerges

Jian Ying slept for a day and a night, even if he woke up now, after opening his eyelids, his eyes were always red, swollen and stinging, and finally he had to continue to close his eyes.

However, this reaction brought hope to Aoika, who was taking care of him on the side, and she turned her head and shouted excitedly outside, "Nagata, he's awake, and the sword shadow has woken up." ”

Akimichi Nagata was skewering the fish he caught by the campfire and putting it on the fire, and when he heard Aoika's voice, he didn't care about anything for a while and ran over with a shelf.

"Thank goodness I finally woke up. If you don't wake up, we'll have to go back to Konohala. "In non-war times, saving the lives of your companions is more important than all tasks, whether it's for Konoha or for the ninja themselves.

"Sorry for worrying you." Sword Shadow smiled apologetically, "I'm just a little tired, I'll be fine after a few hours of rest." ”

Nagata knows this friend very well, and since he was a child, he has never encountered such a situation except for being seriously injured and hospitalized by an unknown teenager. "No kidding. I'll be fine after a few hours of rest, but I'm not going to say yes. ”

Kwai Xiang also persuaded: "Anyway, it's already delayed, and it's not a day off, so you can continue to rest." Although the conditions are simple, this place is much better than what we have found before. ”

Jian Ying was very happy to see his friend's concern for him, but he knew his own situation, and the reason why he fainted was that he couldn't tell them, so he shook his head and said to them: "Don't forget that I know how to heal ninjutsu, if I hurt myself, can I not know." It's the same as I said just now, I'm just too tired, and although Mr. Kai said that he wouldn't come back when he left, I was always uneasy, and I kept using perceptual ninjutsu to guard the surroundings, and the result was ......" A wry smile appeared on his face.

In the same way that the white eye needs to open its eyes for insight, perception is not enabled anytime and anywhere, it requires concentration and consumes energy and physical energy.

Nagata and Aoika looked at each other with a relieved expression.

"I see, it's fine. Kwai Xiang is right, it's not bad for the day anyway, you can rest next. Wait until dawn tomorrow and we'll set off again. Seeing that the sword shadow was really fine, Nagata was relieved, picked up the shelf and pointed to the fish on it and said to him, "You wait, I'll grill the fish for you." ”

"Okay, hurry up, I'm really hungry." Yanagi Jianying smiled and said weakly.

Aoi Xiang stood up and said, "Sword Shadow, lie down well." I'm going to help him. ”

The two of them left him space to rest, and when Yanagi Jianying saw that they were all gone, he closed his eyes and thought about the information that appeared in his mind, leaving only a clear feeling in his heart.

Ever since he found out that the enemy was Orochimaru's man, Yanagi Kenkage wanted to know what had attracted the attention of this big bull and made him send so many people, especially Junmaro, that the other party would actually let this madman out.

As Mike Kay leaves, Sword Shadow splits into a large number of shadow clones and searches the surroundings. Even if he was in a hurry these days, he still didn't stop, and continued to order the clone to separate the shadow clone, which was the reason why he looked tired a few days ago.

The reason why I fainted yesterday was because one of the shadow clones took the initiative to disarm the doppelganger after the target.

This doppelganger stayed outside for a few days, and the information stored in the brain for the past few days suddenly returned to its main body, causing a lot of damage to the sword shadow.

At that time, Yagyu Kenkage had not yet fallen, and after finding his target, the other clones came to the two-person-tall weed, looking at the large number of records about sealing techniques inscribed on a half-human-tall square stone slab.

There is a sign on the stone slab, which is the crest of a very famous family, and Sword Shadow is familiar with it, because this is the Uzumaki clan!

In order to prevent accidents, the shadow clones record the information on the slate together, and they are divided into several groups, one group remembers and dissolves the clone, and then the next group continues to remember. Many shadow clones have been out for three or four days, and the memories of more than a dozen people add up, which is a record of nearly two months of life.

When this terrifying memory broke into Yanagi Kenkage's brain, even if the main body was supported by medical ninjutsu and blood essence stones, it couldn't be stopped, which is why he fell without warning.

However, after putting aside these flaws, the shadow clone is indeed a cheating weapon, worthy of the name of forbidden art.

The words carved into the stone tablets by the Uzumaki Clan had been etched in the minds of Sword Shadow, and to summarize them, he had compiled the useful parts and learned how to use three of them.

"I really didn't expect the Vortex Clan to have this kind of ability. It seems that the use of Mu Dun is because when the attributes of water and soil are combined, Yang Dun is injected into it, if I can complete the understanding of Yang Dun in this information, maybe I can really master Yang Dun. ”

The effects of the three sealing techniques are very useful in specific situations, but what Sword Shadow values is the understanding of Yang Dun and the way of how to cultivate Yang Dun, in fact, there is also information about Yin Dun below, but the slate is too damaged, and all that can be seen is just a few words, if there is no solid foundation, don't want to sort out the details through these fragments.

"No, these things have to be written down."

As soon as he thought of it, he immediately took action, took out the scroll from his body, picked up the pen and quickly recorded it on it.

The information on the sealing speed is very rare Sword Shadow is very clear, in a sense, it can even kill all aspects of ninjutsu. It's a pity that the Vortex Ninja Village, which is the most researched in the ninja world on sealing techniques, no longer exists, and a large number of documents are scattered all over the world.

He recovered quickly, and as the shadow clones returned to his body one by one, especially the part of the clone that carried the memories of a few days was lifted, he no longer had a lack of energy. So the next morning, Kenkage urged Nagata and them to hurry up.

This former land of the empty country, even when the empty ninja was strong, did not solve the most basic transportation problems, and now, the strength of each city-state is low, and it is even more reluctant to do thankless work. The three of them had just arrived in the town mentioned on the mission, and they were immediately discovered by the townspeople and attracted attention.

Aoi Xiang stepped forward to explain to the townspeople that they had a lot of respect during their conversation when they knew that the other party was a ninja, and immediately sent them to the mayor's house.

After Jian Ying's observation, the scale of this town is really not large, not to mention compared to Konoha, it can't even compare to many small towns in remote places in the Fire Country, maybe some villages in lively areas are not as large as here.

As a seaside, the town was very humid, and after walking for a while, the trio finally got out of the muddy ground and onto the gravel paved streets.

Although the road conditions here were as bad as ever, they were much better for Kenkage, who had to clear the mud under his shoes every twenty minutes in the forest.

The mud that accumulates under the shoes, sometimes up to a centimeter thick, not only affects the speed and burden, but also increases the chance of slipping, which has a great impact on the movement.

"Lord Ninja, this is our mayor. Mayor Mare, they're Konoha ninjas who we've commissioned here. ”

The mayor's house is no different from the surroundings, and the whole person also has the characteristics of seaside life, with broad shoulders that look powerful and powerful, and there is no beer belly as Jian Ying imagined. "You're finally here, we haven't been out to sea on a large scale for more than two months, Ninja-sama. You must help us. ”

The other party's personality is a little rough, and he is also very anxious, and he began to complain after seeing the sword shadow and them.

"Mayor Mare, Mayor Mare! I think it's better to invite the ninja into the house first. "The guy who led the way to the sword shadow was very clever and pulled the mayor's sleeve.

At this time, the mayor also reacted, felt rude and apologized again and again: "I'm really sorry, a few adults, hurry up, please inside." ”

After entering the house, the mayor of the town, who was the owner, prepared some tea and food for everyone.

Not to mention that the mayor is a knowledgeable person, the mark of being ruled by the empty ninja village still stays in the minds of the elders, and as Konoha who broke the empty ninja and made them disappear into the history of the empty country, no one dares to show disrespect, and only the villagers of the village who have preserved the stone monument of the Uzumaki clan will look at the ninja with normal eyes.

"I don't know what to call a few adults, but I'm the mayor here, Araki Shinyi."

Sword Shadow smiled, and then began to introduce: "My name is Yanagi Sword Shadow, and these two are my companions, Akido Nagata and Mitsuki Aoika. Mr. Araki, I would like to know more details, and if so, I would like to observe it first, but I wonder if I can agree to this request. ”

It's actually a bit rude for him to do this, but when Araki Shinyi comes in, he is more eager than him; Second, Sword Shadow is indeed fed up with the environment of the empty country, not that he can't bear it, but he can't bear it, so he has to leave quickly.

If Sword Shadow lived here, he would definitely improve the environment here little by little, instead of letting the environment continue like the people who live here.

The sealing technique that has just arrived, Yanagi Sword Shadow really wants to experiment, and there is no experimental material and environment available here.

Just like the society of the previous life, the development of any new technology needs to be promoted by the whole society, and Sword Shadow also hopes that the sealing technique can once again show its power after experiencing the glory of the Vortex Clan. It is for this reason that the shadow clone did not destroy those stone tablets, and the sword shadow with the imprint of the great industrial civilization society does not think that he can succeed by studying it alone.

Araki Shinyi was very excited when he heard Kenkage's request, and he said respectfully to the three of them: "Ladies and gentlemen, our town lives by the sea, but in the past few months, there have been several incidents of monsters crashing into fishing boats, and intermittently, six people have unfortunately been killed, they are all strong laborers in the family, without them, the family life of these victims has become very difficult. I sent someone to the Land of Fire early in the morning to submit an application to Konoha and for more than a month I have been holding back people from going out to sea to fish. ”

"But fishing is everyone's livelihood, and it's okay to stick to it for a few days, but it's not good for a long time. Now more and more people are going out on boats, and just the day before yesterday, another family was killed, hey...... Although everyone is scared, I guess I won't be able to stop it for a few days or still sneak out, my lord, if you can solve that monster as soon as possible, please hurry up and solve it. I'm up to you for everything we have in Hornfishtown. ”

In the end, Araki Shinyi walked up to the three of them from behind the low table, knelt in front of the sword shadow with a "poof", and pressed his head to the floor in a solemn request.

Aoika and Nagata looked like they didn't know how to deal with it, and Kenkage was very calm and said to him, "Mr. Araki, then please ask someone to take us to the beach." Whatever you do next, you have to know the information about the monster you are talking about. ”

So simply made Araki Shinyi show an excited look, so he took the three of them to the beach and introduced a middle-aged man named Jida Gangang.

Jida Kanoka is the best fisherman in the town of Hornfish, and because of his skillful boating skills, he used to drive the mayor's big boat to haul the seafood caught in other places to sell. But recently, there was a monster in this sea area, for safety, Araki Shinyi didn't let him go to the boat again, but this man secretly drove the family's boat with his son to the sea to fish, with his familiarity with the ocean, although the ship was destroyed, but successfully avoided the danger caused by a sea monster, and became the only survivor to see the monster with his own eyes.

The three of them stood on the fishing boat driven by Jida and watched the land behind them gradually approach the sea level and disappear, and felt the greatness of the ocean.

There was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man beside Jida Gang, who was working in accordance with the requirements of Huangang in an orderly manner. He is the son of Huangang, Jida Kumaji, and at the age of sixteen, he is very respectful to the three of the Sword Shadow because of his father's orders. However, seeing that the three of them were only twelve years old, they couldn't imagine how much power there would be in that petite body.

"Further on, there is the sea area where incidents are frequent. It turned out that the merchant ships that often passed by here did not dare to approach, and it became a dead sea. Jida shouted at the sword shadow.

Jian Ying glanced at this sea area, there was no marker at all, and he didn't know how Huangang judged, so he had to say, "Can you meet that monster today?" ”

Huangang said uncertainly: "There is no guarantee." Sometimes he would swim at great speed a few meters below the surface of the sea, and the waves could easily overturn the ship we were standing on. But there are also times when you decide that a target is attacking, and either way, you have to work hard to survive when you encounter it. ”

"No one else but you saw what this thing looked like?" Jian Ying wanted to know more, although Huangang had seen the appearance of monsters, but at that time when the sun was setting, he saw the silhouette of monsters exposed to the sea, as for what color and specific appearance, he didn't know.

Although he didn't know what it looked like, the information given by Huangang allowed Jian Ying to judge the size of the monster.

"Thirty meters in height is already the level of a psychic beast. It's good that there is no tail, otherwise the situation would have been more troublesome. "Kenkage is worried about encountering another uncontrollable situation, if this monster is a tailed beast, even if the Akatsuki organization can't make up his mind, the misty shinobi will gather here.

He doesn't have the strength to face these troubles now, to put it mildly, Sword Shadow now wants to die with others and has no benefits.

Think about Danzo, when he dies, he will directly bankrupt Obito's plan to recover other gods.

In fact, Jian Ying really wanted to use Xiao Nan's method as a hole card, but unfortunately, he couldn't do that to the extent that he wanted to make so many explosive charms arrange and move with his own will, and he couldn't control the paper.

There was no harvest on the first day, and the three returned to Araki Shinyi's home to rest, and the next day continued to let the ring gang carry them out to sea.

The next day's luck was surprisingly good, but of course it was just for them, and in the eyes of a few fishermen who secretly sailed out to sea, the day was bad luck.

"Wait a minute. Nagata, come hereβ€”look over there. The shadow of the sword standing on the side of the ship pointed to the line between the sea and the sky.

Nagata and Aoika stepped forward, staring in that direction, as a white wave broke through the deep blue sea and sped forward. The situation of the three of them was seen by Jida Huangang, and he stepped forward behind Nagata and made a visual inspection: "That wave is at least fifty meters high." yes, it must be the monster...... Not good, that direction is where Ueda and they went fishing. ”

"What's going on?" Sword Shadow asked.

Jida Huangang was anxious, ran back to steer the boat to change course, and at the same time explained to Kenkage: "Ueda Seiji, this guy quietly took someone out to sea this morning. I couldn't convince them, but I knew where they were fishing, damn it, if only I could convince him. ”

Hearing his words, Jian Ying's face was pale, he had come here to solve the problem, these fishermen were not willing to wait even a few days, did they think that they couldn't solve this monster by waiting for others?

Seeing the ship slowly draw a half-arc on the sea, Sword Shadow shook his head and said, "The speed is too slow, let's go first." As he spoke, he jumped into the sea and ran in the direction of the sea monster, followed by Nagata, but Aoika stood on the deck, because she was the only one of the three, she had not yet learned, and her face was sad, and she complained to the two who left, "You guys...... Why don't you teach me this?"
