Chapter 52: Reconnaissance Mission Roaring Dragon Valley

There aren't many high-level tasks on the list.

Many of them are above A, and all of them are directly issued by the higher-ups, and they will give this kind of task to the designated ninja, rather than letting the people in the mission hall assign it.

Sweeping down at a glance and ten lines, most of the ones displayed on several lists are below the B level, and occasionally there will be a few reconnaissance missions of unknown levels, the reason why the level of the reconnaissance mission is unknown is because it may be a real C-level mission - that is, you can return if you understand the details, even if there is a battle, the enemy is also a bandit and bandit, and it will not have anything to do with the ninja.

However, accidents can also occur in this type of mission, and the reason for the accident is that there is a secret hidden in the place of investigation, and the ninja who goes on the mission happens to meet the mastermind behind the scenes, so the difficulty of the mission immediately increases.

Sword Shadow doesn't worry about trouble, but he can find this kind of special task among so many tasks, and the result is all down to luck.

Yanagi Kenkage didn't care if the task was underestimated, he just wanted to find the one that interested him and helped him.

Luck is really wonderful, sometimes you have been unlucky, even if you have the attitude of not causing trouble, you will still encounter disasters that you can't avoid. This should be the person sitting at home, and evil will come from heaven. Sword Shadow may have focused his good fortune on the previous two years, but in the evening, he still hadn't found a task that met his expectations.

Lying on the bed, the sword shadow tossed and turned, thinking about what to do in the future.

"The energy of the Blood Essence Stone is over three hundred, and it can continue to increase. If you don't find a good target tomorrow, go and take on the task of exterminating the bandits, at least you can increase the energy of the Blood Essence Stone. The energy saver is on, but I have no other means now than to use it to increase the power of the spiral pill and the range of influence of the illusion, this has to be solved quickly, and I can't put my hope on the three generations. ”

"The most important thing is sealing. The seals obtained on the brownstone side, although powerful, are not suitable for the battlefield. Looks like we'll have to target the ruins of the Uzumaki! Hey, it's really troublesome, boring one by one, why can't it make me satisfied. ”

Before coming to Konoha, he opened two new equipment, one is an energy saver, Yanagi Sword Shadow is having a headache about this, how to use the energy inside; The other is the heraldic shield, which not only greatly increases the recovery speed of his strength and vitality, but also gives the sword shadow the ability to regenerate after death.

What a powerful ability to be reborn after death.

However, the thought of Izanagi made him feel unhappy. The group in memory used up ten lives in a row, and the result was still finished.

With the heraldic shield and the blood essence stone, his recovery ability has reached a new height, and continuing to increase the energy of the blood essence stone will inevitably make the recovery ability to a higher level, but in the case of having the ability to regenerate, no amount of recovery speed effect is not very useful. If the enemy can suppress himself and beat him half to death, will he be stupid enough to grind his own blood after discovering that his recovery speed is amazing?

I'm afraid that in the next second, I will activate the sealing technique and plunge myself into boundless darkness. As a result, what was once an important resilience is now a small branch. It's not that Yanagi Sword Shadow doesn't pay attention to it anymore, but it means that his first goal has changed from increasing the energy of the Blood Essence Stone to collecting high-power ninjutsu and sealing materials.

The next day, there was still no result.

Kenkage can be seen clearly, if you want to take on a task above A, you must go to the Hokage, and only the high-level has the opportunity to promulgate this kind of task.

Just as he was considering whether to put down asking the Hokage about A-rank advanced ninjutsu, a task to gather information fell into his eyes.

Destination: The Land of Winds, Roaring Dragon Valley.

Requirements: Search for information about the Howling Dragon Valley, including the strange events that occurred and the surrounding landforms.

Time: Within one month from the time the task is issued, whenever the task is accepted, it must be delivered by the 30th.

Reason: The Land of the Wind Roaring Dragon Valley......

Yanagi Jianying read it line by line, and quickly read the three-page task list. "It's really interesting, someone actually saw a ghost moving in the Roaring Dragon Valley, it couldn't be an illusion! Well...... It doesn't seem to be, and there are still voices and traces left by operations on the ground, tsk, it seems that I have to go there in person. ”

"Hey. This task, I accepted. Sorting out the other tasks and placing them on the table, Sword Shadow took the tasks of the Roaring Dragon Valley and said to the Nakashino behind the desk.

Four days later, the sword shadow came to the outskirts of the Roaring Dragon Valley.

Knowing how to unlock the rest of his equipment, Sword Shadow slowed himself down, hoping that he would come across an opportunity to collect the Promise of Sincerity during his journey.

In this world, even if it is a soul, their sanity and consciousness are no different from when they were alive, such as Kato's spirit transformation technique, such as the dead who were reincarnated in the dirty earth. But the equipment in the sword shadow's body, except for the blood essence stone, needs to be opened by something unique in the soul.

Yanagi Sword Shadow didn't know what it was, but as the carrier of the equipment, he could more or less perceive something, so he clearly knew that that thing did come from the soul, and from the analysis of the situation when the two pieces of equipment were opened, this was a very cherished substance that would not affect the lifespan of the human body.

The Valley of the Roaring Dragon is in a desert in the Land of Winds, because of its proximity to the Land of the River, there are many oases here, there are not many people coming and going, and almost all of the people who walk here are foreigners.

Legend has it that in the era of the ninja tribe, this was a country with an army of 100,000. This was simply a myth at the time, in fact, not to mention at that time, even now, the Fire Nation could not maintain an army of 100,000 people for long, and the standing army was only 350,000 to make the daimyo bother.

At that time, wars were frequent, the people were poor, and many ninja families were short of food and clothing, not to mention ordinary people without force. These people are not in danger of being able to survive day and night, and if they are accidentally involved in the ninja war, a village or a town may be reduced to ruins.

There is no agricultural stability, there is not enough food, and the daimyo of many countries can only support a few thousand soldiers, at most, they cooperate with ninjas, which is equivalent to using the combination of army and ninja to stabilize the country within the affordability of funds in a way that is high and low.

Seeing the history of the Roaring Dragon Valley, Yanagi Kenkage judged that the country's army was not a real soldier, but a puppet controlled by others. But another problem arises, even the most ordinary puppets, not to mention the materials used to make them, the number of puppeteers who control them alone is not small.

Looking at the size of the country established in the Roaring Dragon Valley drawn on the data, Sword Shadow did not believe that a country smaller than the size of the Land of Rain was capable of supporting an army of 100,000. Ordinary soldiers are not as strong as ninjas, but they will eat no less than ninjas, and the materials used to make them, even if they are the cheapest, are worth more than two years of taxes in the current Fire Country.

Not to mention the puppeteer who controls the puppeteer, although the red sand scorpion in the original book can control a hundred puppets at the same time, but not everyone has this ability, and the puppeteer at that time will be promoted to the level, when each person can control ten puppeteers, 100,000 puppeteers need 10,000 puppeteers.

Isn't this a cheat! The current Konoha includes the ninjas who have just graduated, those who have retired from old age, and ninjas who have retired due to injuries, and there are only more than 20,000 people. At that time, there was no concept of a ninja village, and different ninja groups would not unite like a ninja village, that is, these puppeteers were all from the same family, this, is it possible?

Anyway, Sword Shadow didn't believe it, and while searching for an opportunity to open the equipment on the way, he thought about the information mentioned in the information, hoping to intervene in the investigation immediately after arriving in the Roaring Dragon Valley.

"In such a place, even if the river does not dry up, there is no way to build a city with more than 10,000 people."

Standing on a high place, the sword shadow looked down at the Gobi in front of him.

This is the outskirts of the Roaring Dragon Valley, where the Gobi and the desert occupy half of each other, and the riverbed of a hundred years ago has been buried due to wind and sand erosion, and only a few sections can still be seen that this is the river of the present day.

As in modern times, the environmental problems here are also severe!

A gossip suddenly popped into Sword Shadow's mind, and then he put it aside with a smile and carefully observed the surrounding environment. He was going to spend two days walking around the outskirts of the Roaring Dragon Valley, at least knowing where to retreat when he was in danger.

From the topography point of view, the Howling Dragon Valley should be a low-lying area, and its magic lies in the composition of the landform, and the further you go, the larger the objects that form the landform landmark. People often say that hearing is false, seeing is believing, and this result has long been overturned, but people still believe what they see with their eyes.

Illusion is a kind of ninjutsu that deceives the senses, it is a kind of spiritual inducement and hypnosis initiated by people, and what Kenkage sees in front of him is a landform created by nature through the power of heaven and earth that can deceive people's senses. Everyone knows that the farther away you are, the smaller the size of the object you see, but in the Roaring Dragon Valley, near the center, the stone pilasters stand far larger than the outer ones. So looking at it, the actual area should be the size of a small city, and it feels like it is only seventeen or eighteen football fields, as if you can run through the valley in less than ten minutes.

Except for Luo Shenming, no one in Konoha took the illusion mastered by Sword Shadow to heart. It's not because the original secret technique of the Luoluo Clan is not strong, but now on Konoha's renegade list, there is an Uchiha Itachi who has opened the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye. No matter how superb Yanagi Kenkage's attainments in illusion are, can he compete with the people of the Uchiha clan in illusion?

Kaleidoscope writing wheel eyes, even within the Uchiha clan, have almost become legends. What's more, it is an outsider, ordinary people do not know the contribution of the Uchiha clan to Konoha and the harm brought to Konoha However, the high-level of Konoha will never dare to underestimate this clan, even if the Uchiha has been wiped out, but as long as there is a clan, he will be like a seed, and sooner or later he will grow into a towering tree.

Especially now, Sasuke has always had a reputation as a genius, and now he is guided by Konoha technician Kakashi Hachiki.

But in fact, Sword Shadow's ability to cast illusions is no longer too weak, and with the help of the multiple shadow clones and the Blood Essence Stone, he has completely mastered his spiritual power in the three years of Sleepless City. The only thing he lacks is the means to cast illusions, passive defense, even against the Moon Reading Sword Shadow, he has the confidence to block it, but to say that to cast this type of illusion, the problem encountered is the same as in other aspects, he lacks powerful ninjutsu, which also includes illusions.

The technique of golden binding used by Yanagi Sword Shadow is actually the lowest, and it can only deal with people whose strength is weaker than itself, and the opponent's combat power has reached a certain level, even if it is not as good as himself, he can solve this move.

Looking at the magic of nature and the mysterious wonders of the Roaring Dragon Valley, Liu Sheng's sword shadow was silent for a long time, and sighed at it: "I heard that talented people can realize extremely strong ninjutsu by observing the magnificent scenes of nature, I have stood here for so long, and I have not gained a little, you say, is my talent very poor!" ”

At some point, three people appeared behind the sword shadow - three ninjas.

He turned to look at the visitor, his pupils tightening. It turns out that these three are also "acquaintances", the trio of Sand Hidden Village, the children of the four generations of Kazekage: Temari, Kankuro, and Iara, who has a bloodthirsty look.

"Konoha Ninja! This is the Land of the Wind, what are you doing here? "Temari is still a little girl, and although Kenkage is not very old, he is already forty years old in his two lives combined, and even though he knows that this world is different from the original, he still can't help but see them as children.

Looking at the wary look in the eyes of the two, the sword shadow waved his hand at them and said, "Don't get me wrong, I only came here after receiving this mission. Speaking of which, I'm going to help you investigate, you won't also receive this task! ”

He used an inquiring tone, but he knew in his heart that the three people in front of him were coming for him. When they were spotted before, the three of them were heading in the direction of Shayin Village, perhaps they had just returned to the village after a mission. However, Sword Shadow stood on the only high ground within a few kilometers of the vicinity, which was helpful for observing the terrain on the outskirts of the Roaring Dragon Valley, but it was also easy for people from afar to find themselves.

Because it was a mission from the mission hall, there was no need for Sword Shadow to hide his tracks, and if he was sneaky, he might even attract the attention of Sand Shinobi. If you fall into this tongue, those people will definitely find a way to kill themselves. He didn't forget that when he was rounding up the giant shark, he and Mr. Kai made a move against the sand ninja, but later because there was no evidence, that incident became a war of words between the sand hidden village and the wooden leaf hidden village.

"You're strong, I really want to kill you...... Belch!! Before Temari could speak, Iara, who was standing in the middle of them, pressed his forehead with his right hand, and his face was painful for a while and excited for a while, and he was crazy to watch.

Seeing that something was wrong, Kankuro immediately motioned for Temari and him to take Airo away, and he didn't forget to say to Kenkage: "We'll investigate, Konoha Ninja." ”

Observing the actions of this Konoha ninja, Temari also knew that this was probably the case, she wanted to come over to see the situation, but because my Airo was showing signs of losing control, she had to take him away quickly.

"I love Luo, don't forget our identity, let's go back to the village!" Intimidated by my Airo's strength, coupled with his status as his younger brother, Temari didn't dare to stimulate the other party too much.

"......" didn't seem to hear the words of his sister and brother, and Iara was still immersed in his own world, and he looked more excited and crazy.

Seeing that something was wrong, Temari shouted, "I love Luo!! ”

Whew――

The confrontation that had formed between Airo and Kenkage finally dissipated, and it was like moving away the scales that were pressing on his heart, and Kankuro exhaled a cloudy breath, and looked at Kenkage's gaze even deeper. "This guy can actually exude such an momentum, no wonder I love Luo and almost lost control when I met him, it's really dangerous."

When the sword shadow found out that I Airo was spreading killing intent, the harmless smile on his face remained unchanged, but he tensed his muscles and became vigilant. He controls the chakra all over his body, uses his will to shape the fighting spirit, and confronts the tyrannical murderous aura of Iro.

Even if they didn't fight, Temari and Kankuro knew that the Konoha ninja in front of them was very difficult to mess with. Even if the two believe that the result of the other party's fight with my Airo is that this person is torn to pieces, but the two of them will also face risks, in addition, the news that I Airo is a human pillar is inconvenient for others to know, and they teamed up with my Airo to prevent the other party from going berserk and attracting the peep of their forces to my Airo.

"Let's go, I'll love Luo." Kankuro didn't want things to get out of control, so he spoke as soon as his killing intent dropped.

I Airo glared at him fiercely, and then looked at the sword shadow, "We'll meet again......" The eyes were full of murderous intent, and there was no doubt that he was looking forward to tearing the sword shadow to pieces next time they met
