Foggy.

The village, which was established in the mist, is the gateway to the land of water, and is surrounded by the vast sea.

Among the five major powers, the Fog Hidden Village is also the ninja village that is best at water warfare. The sea and lake are the favorite combat environments of the ninjas of the Fog Hidden Village.

It is customary for Yakura to relax his body and mind by going to the rooftop of the Mizukage Building and looking out at the endless sea after finishing his political work in the morning.

The strong pressure work that has been going on has also brought a lot of trouble to Yakura.

When he first ascended to the throne, many high-level elders had a lot of complaints about him, and the inclusion of the ghost shark in the selection of the Seven Ninja Sword at the beginning made those elders even more dissatisfied.

But in the past few years, Wuyin Village has indeed recovered its strength at a rapid speed, and these high-level elders have been honest, but Yakura knows that these people are still watching their every move from behind, wanting to grab their pigtails from behind to make trouble.

This time, the Daimyo of the Land of Water was assassinated, and the defection of the oni shark and the abandonment of the village were the reasons for these high-level attacks.

For this reason, Yakura had to make a compromise at the high-level meeting, after all, the whole thing, in their opinion, was the bad consequences caused by him as a water shadow and improper knowledge of people.

As a result, the relationship between the aristocratic collectives of the Fog Hidden and the Land of Water deteriorated further.

Even some nobles believe that the oni shark is just a murderous blade in the hands of Mizukage, and the defection of the seven ninja swords also happened at the behest of Mizukage.

It's just that there is no evidence, and the specific reason why the ghost shark rebelled and fled from the country of boiling water, there is not enough testimony to be convinced that the assassination of the daimyo of the country of water was involved in it, and he allowed his subordinates to commit murder. In the end, that's all there is to it.

Looking up at the boundless sea, the warm and warm sea breeze blowing in his face, Yakura exhaled softly, and the depression of the past few days has also dissipated a lot.

The matter of the ghost shark, in the interior of Wuyin Village, there are no more than five people who know the truth.

These people are all cronies around them, ninjas who have been brought out by their own hands, and they naturally do not need to question their loyalty to themselves and the village.

But from the beginning, he was also a little hesitant whether to break the ghost shark out of the Fog Hidden Village.

After the civil strife in Wuyin Village, the military strength has declined, and the ghost shark is an indispensable general for Wuyin Village.

The Seven Ninja Blades, although they are the upper ninjas in the village, but only the most elite level of the upper ninja can join them and set up a special ninja force, symbolizing the cards of the Fog Hidden Village.

As the prominent leader of this generation of ninja sword seven, the strength of the ghost shark is not weak.

However, compared to the future plan, it can play a huge role than letting the ghost shark stay in Wuyin Village and send him out to engage in espionage work.

At this point, we can only step up the excavation of internal talents in the fog and cultivate a new generation of excellent ninjas as soon as possible to serve as a pillar and take on the future of the fog hidden village.

According to the actions of the Yuan Master, in a few more years, he will abdicate and give up the position of Mizukage, and another Mist Hidden Ninja will take the position of Mizukage.

Until then, he had to make all the preparations before he could safely hand over the position of Mizukage to his successor.

After a moment of thought, Yakura descended from the rooftop and returned to his office.

Escort Kaminobi, Ao, who is a part-time secretary of the Mizukage, is sorting documents there and working hard.

"Do you need a little more rest, Mizukage-sama? You've been staying up late at work these days. Do you want to find a medical ninja to recuperate your body? ”

Qing asked with concern.

Being diligent in political affairs is indeed admirable, but if you are tired of your body because of this, in Qing's opinion, it will be worth the loss.

The Fog Hidden Village finally got out of the shadow of the Blood Mist, and over the past few years, under the leadership of Yakura, it has recovered and developed at a very fast speed, and it will soon be able to smooth out the great trauma caused by the Blood Mist Sect. At this time, Aoi thinks that Yakura, who is the Mizukage, can relax appropriately.

"Don't worry, my body is fine, just look for a medical ninja to come over. I'm not as delicate as you think, Qing. ”

After all, he is in the prime of life, even if he does high-intensity work for half a month in a row, it is not a problem for Yakura.

"Really? However, I still hope that Mizukage-sama can pay a little attention to his body. ”

"Got it...... However, when it comes to body healing, I really miss the warmth of the Oni Country. Not long ago, I came back in a hurry after talking, and I didn't enjoy it properly. If you abdicate in the future, you will go over to retire for a while. ”

Yakura stretched his body and said as he remembered something.

"You're the misty water shadow, is it really okay to say such a thing?"

Qing glanced at Yakura helplessly.

"You're just too one-eyed, Qing. According to the agreement with Yuanshi, in a few more years, I should abdicate and make way for Xian. ”

"Terumi is shinobi? Her words, under the operation of Elder Yuanshi, have indeed been very active recently. ”

Qing thought about it for a while, and then understood something.

It is not difficult to see that if there is no accident, the other party is already the fifth generation of Mizukage.

No, even if there is an accident, Yakura will sweep it away and let Terumi inherit his position as Mizukage.

Because of the cooperation with the country of ghosts, Terumi is also an insider and a consenter.

If someone else is replaced by a water shadow, the cooperation with the Oni Country will likely be terminated at that time, which is extremely detrimental to the future development of the Fog Hidden Village.

And if it was according to the United States, this kind of thing would not have happened.

Therefore, with the dual support of the most respected elder master in the fog and the current Mizukage, the other party succeeds the fifth generation of Mizukage, which is a sure thing.

Qing has no opinion on this.

No matter who is the Mizukage, as long as he can lead the Fog Hidden Village to become stronger, and don't repeat the tragedy like the Blood Mist, it is enough.

It doesn't make a difference to Qing who will serve at that time.

Usually, the relationship between him and Terumi is relatively harmonious, after all, Terumi is still serving as a water shadow guard, although he has rarely been here.

"Until then, I'll arrange everything for the underworld."

Yakura sat back in his seat and said.

It is indeed a very regrettable thing that I can't continue to do it in the Mizukage position all the time.

But compared to the road of the Fog Hidden Village, the position of the water shadow is not worth mentioning.

Moreover, he is a three-tailed pillar force, and sooner or later he will become Xiao's target.

In case of an accident at that time and unfortunately falling into Xiao's hands, Wuyin Village would not be leaderless and fall into passivity...... Prepare for the worst.

It is also Mizukage's duty to plan ahead and take everything into account.

"I always feel that Mizukage-sama will be misunderstood by many people."

Qing sighed.

Carrying the banner of exterminating the Blood Mist Sect alone, it is hard to imagine how heavy the pressure on the other party was at that time before he came to power in a coup d'état.

It turns out that Yakura's approach is right, and long pain is better than short pain.

Although the extermination of the Blood Mist Sect greatly damaged the vitality of Wuyin Village, it brought long-term stability and laid a solid foundation for the future development of Wuyin Village.

Secretly received new technical support from the Ghost Country, taking the medical ninja as an example, after the secret assistance of the Ghost Country, the medical system of the Fog Hidden Village has undoubtedly begun to change dramatically. In the past few years, the number of ninja squads who have gone out to perform missions in Fog Hidden Village has been decreasing year by year, which can be described as an extremely wise move.

"This kind of thing doesn't matter, after all, I also pursued the power of Mizukage at that time. Okay, let's not talk about that, this year's ninja school, is there anything worth paying attention to? ”

Yakura asked about it instead.

The Ninja School is the most important ninja training institution in a ninja village, and it has contributed to the training of countless outstanding ninjas in the ninja village.

Yakura also attaches great importance to the ninja school.

"There are quite a few, especially the Kaguya clan, the children of their clan have achieved a lot of actual combat results in this year's ninja school that are difficult to achieve under the ninja."

Qing picked up a report, scanned the contents, and reported to Yakura.

"Kaguya? That family where most people have brain disease? I thought all these battle maniacs were dead. ”

"Please don't make such a terrible joke, Mizukage-sama. In any case, their clan also has the Blood Inheritance Limit. There are very few ninjas in the ninja world who can compete with them in physical arts. ”

Qing said seriously.

The Kaguya clan is a ninja clan who are keen to fight, and they have possessed a bloodline limit called the 'Bone Vein' since ancient times.

However, due to the scarcity of this kind of Blood Inheritance Limit Awakener, in the decades of history since the establishment of Fog Hidden Village, there are only a handful of Kaguya ninjas who have corpse bone veins.

But there is no doubt that if any Kaguya ninja who awakens the bone vein, their physical skills will become very terrifying.

This clan's fanatical pursuit of battle is no less than that of the Uchiha clan in Konoha.

All along, in battle, the ninjas of this clan are not afraid of death, sprinting to the forefront of the battlefield, bloody and fighting the enemy.

Sometimes, even Mizukage, who is in power, has a headache for this group of battle maniacs.

"Really? What about other than that? ”

"The children of the Snow Clan also excel in the ninja school."

"Blood Inheritance Limit...... It's really a unique talent. ”

Faced with Qing's answer, Yakura sighed.

The Snow Clan, like the Kaguya Clan, is a rare ninja clan with a blood inheritance limit.

The ninjas of this clan have the 'Ice Escape' Blood Relay Limit, but the probability of awakening the Blood Relay Limit is greater than that of the Kaguya clan.

"Blood is also a strength, and that's understandable. This is the precious wealth left by their ancestors, but it is not a simple matter to apply it skillfully. ”

Qing nodded, Blood Inheritance Limit Ninjas, in many cases, their upper limit as ninjas is to surpass ordinary ninjas.

This is an unassailable fact.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with considering bloodlines as one of the strengths of a ninja.

"What are their names?"

"Kaguya-kun Maro and Shiro are in the fourth year of the ninja school, but according to the school's judgment, the two of them have no problem graduating early. The two of them already possessed the strength to surpass most of the lower ninjas. Moreover...... They all have signs of awakening the Blood Inheritance Limit. ”

Qing replied solemnly.

The Snow Clan's Ice Escape is very powerful, but the probability of awakening is high, so Qing doesn't think it's something to be too surprised.

However, the Kaguya clan's 'corpse bone vein' is an extremely rare talent.

The ability to freely manipulate the bones of the body, the hardness of the bones, even exceeding the hardness of steel, is both a sharp spear and a hard shield.

"Is that so? It seems that these two people, in their grades, are the first and second place results. ”

Yakura made that judgment.

"No, the situation may not be what you expected, Mizukage-sama."

Qing smiled bitterly at this time.

"What's wrong?"

"The two of them were second and third in their grade, not first and second."

"Second and third? Is there a student in the school who surpasses them? ”

Yakura felt incredible.

Qing shrugged her shoulders helplessly.

"Masahiro Ichihime...... No, it should be Kazuhime Chiba, who is the chief of the fourth year. ”

"It's the kid."

Yakura was not surprised to hear Qing say this.

He had already heard Shiraishi say that Kazuhime was abnormal, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a humanoid tailed beast in the seal.

If it was the other party, it would not be strange to defeat the same people of the Kaguya clan and the Yukichi clan.

"In short, it is necessary to strengthen the teaching of ninja schools and outstanding students, in the past, because of the blood mist policy, many children who are still developing have died in graduation exams, and we must not let this tragedy repeat."

"Yes."

Qing replied solemnly.

The Blood Mist Policy, although it has cultivated a group of powerful Mist Ninjas, has also sacrificed countless excellent seeds for this.

As a result, there are now a few characters carrying the banner on their shoulders in the younger generation of ninjas.

When many more graduated from the ninja school, they killed each other with their peers and died in the graduation exams.

This is a painful history worth remembering for a lifetime.

◎

When you're out alone, no matter how vigilant you are, it's never too much.

The ghost shark always demands this from himself, walking on the wild road shrouded in the moonlight, surrounded by a vast dark landscape.

Carrying a corpse in his hand, he was the target of this bounty mission.

It is an upper-level defector ninja from the Sand Hidden Village of the Land of Wind, who is on the defection list, with a level of A, and a bounty of 12 million taels.

It took ten days for the ghost shark to collect intelligence, and it took two days to kill the other party.

It's very difficult to capture the movements of these defective ninjas who are running around.

One of his few sources of information now is the underground black market.

But there is no free provision of information, and it is necessary to buy information with money.

Therefore, a portion of the bounty obtained each time must be paid to the underground black market platform.

This undoubtedly increases the pressure on the survival of the ghost shark in the outside world.

However, as long as he has passed the initial period and gradually become comfortable with the work of a bounty hunter, the ghost shark can be generally satisfied with his current life.

At least compared to the beginning, his survival pressure is much lower.

Walking on the path in the wilderness, the ghost shark looked at the broken moon in the sky, and the teeth in his mouth began to grin.

"Here we go again, where is it......"

The bright moonlight suddenly dimmed, not because of the dark clouds in the sky, but because of a very suspicious fog that enveloped the surrounding environment, and even the darkness around it.

It gives people a very cold feeling, and bursts of killing intent are transmitted through the cold air, which is cold and piercing.

The Art of Fog Concealment.

It is the best occult vision ninjutsu that the pursuit force of Fog Hidden Village is best at.

It is said that the high-level fog concealment technique, even the Konoha Uchiha clan's writing wheel eye, can be guarded against, and the wind escape cannot be blown away.

During the period of blood mist, the fog concealed pursuit and killing troops, which can be described as notorious, with incomparably bloody and ruthless means, to deter both inside and outside.

Even the ghost shark is extremely jealous of the strength of this army.

As a direct force under the direct jurisdiction of Mizukage, it is all composed of elite ninjas from Fog Hidden Village, and its strength is extraordinary.

It is undoubtedly very unwise to fight against these people in a single situation.

A large amount of kunai is quickly ejected from the dense fog, all of which attack the vital parts.

Without hesitation, the oni shark let go of the bounty target's corpse, and with one hand, he waved the broadsword shark muscle that he had taken down from his back, and with a sharp swing, he bounced all the kunai that flew over.

As a defector ninja, it is inevitable that he will be targeted by the ninjas of the pursuing army.

Although these people didn't know the truth about his defection, since they were in pursuit, the ghost shark would not let it attack and was indifferent.

"Water Escape, Water Shark Bombing Technique!"

The current that gathered around the ghost shark instantly turned into an incomparably ferocious shark, opened its sharp teeth, and rushed into the dense fog.

Crash!

The sharks formed by the water collided with a tall wall of water, causing the water to break up and splash droplets to the ground as if it were raining, bringing a sense of dampness.

After that, another water dragon flew out of the thick fog, and it was the water dragon bullet technique.

It is a powerful water escape ninjutsu that many ninjas in the fog hidden village are very accustomed to and proficient.

Judging from the scale of the water dragon and the chakra content in it, the ninja who performs this water escape technique is undoubtedly a ninja at the upper ninja level.

The ghost shark cut a sound, turned around and left the place, and left the corpse of the bounty target aside, and didn't care about taking it.

The bounty hunter is just a way for him to attract 'customers', and if he gets hurt here for money, in the eyes of the ghost shark, it is very unworthy.

Even if he loses this single business, he will not be so depressed that he will not be able to survive.

At such a time, the most important thing is to think about how to successfully escape from the pursuit force of Wuyin Village.

This group of people didn't know the truth about his defection to the ninja village, and came to chase and kill him, a defected ninja, and Mizukage Yakura signaled behind his back.

The ghost shark has been mentally prepared for this, but every time he encounters this kind of thing, he still feels bad.

And this kind of embarrassing life is just the beginning.

The road ahead will be even more difficult.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the ninjas who came to chase and kill him will definitely not appear ninjas who target his water escape ninjutsu.

This is also the secret consensus of Yakura and him.

After all, the ninja base of Fog Hidden Village is huge, and there will always be some ninjas with special abilities who can restrain the ninjutsu of the oni shark.

In this way, it is inevitable that the ghost shark itself will fall into the danger of death.

This kind of thing will also be avoided as much as possible.

If necessary, it doesn't matter if you can take some drastic measures.

The sound of swishing behind is endless, and the ninjas who are chasing and killing the troops are persistently pursuing the oni shark behind.

For Fog Hidden Village, an S-class defector who is outside the country is likely to endanger the security and stability of the village and the country in the future.

Especially the ninja who defected to the village with the identity of the Seven Ninja Blades, he knew too many secrets about the fog, and once this part of the secret was leaked, it would cause an extremely unfavorable situation for the fog hidden village.

This kind of dangerous and unstable defective ninja is eliminated as soon as possible, which is the meaning of the existence of the pursuit force.

"It's annoying, this group of guys, if they continue like this, they will only catch up endlessly."

Not to mention the pursuit and killing troops in the rest of the villages, the ghost shark is well aware of the persistent attitude of the pursuit and killing troops in Wuyin Village.

This group of people faced with the hatred and rejection of traitors, almost to the point of distortion and perversion.

Once you encounter these people, it is not so simple to get rid of them.

Then he went deeper into the forest, and the dense fog around him faded in color, escaping the enveloping range of the fog concealment technique, and the bright moonlight shone on the earth again, bringing new light to the dark forest.

The footsteps of the ninjas of the pursuing force behind them had disappeared from my ears at some point.

"Huh?"

The oni shark raised an eyebrow, realizing that something was not easy.

With the attitude of the Misty Hidden Pursuit Force towards the traitorous forbearance, it is impossible to let him go so easily.

The ghost shark was also ready to fight hard, so he was ready for a hard fight.

But the ninja who was chasing him behind him had disappeared inexplicably, which had to make the ghost shark feel that things had become a little weirder.

While the ghost shark was thinking about this, there was a change in the land in front of him, as if something was about to come out.

The ghost shark jumped back without hesitation, holding the shark's muscles tightly, revealing a look of vigilance.

The guy who came out of the dirt was a normal creature that couldn't be called a human.

Half black, half white, its body is surrounded by a pitcher plant, like a patchwork creature of two human personalities.

"Who are you?"

The ghost shark did not let down his vigilance.

It's better to say that after this strange creature came out, he became more vigilant in his heart.

As the intelligence says, it is very good at concealment, and this creature will only detect the breath the moment it appears.

"If only we were killed."

The half-black, half-white creature grinned.

It's the white half-body laughing in hip-hop and answering the ghost shark question.

"You guys?"

"Yes, my name is Bai Jue, he is Bai Jue, and Jue is the name after we merge. But what are you doing with this vigilant attitude? It's rare that we have led away the pursuit force of Wuyin Village for you, shouldn't you be grateful to us? ”

The white absolute poor mouth in the left half said.

The black judi in the right half is expressionless, as if it is dominated by white jujue, and is silent there, just staring at the ghost shark with a pair of silent eyes.

But the ghost shark can faintly perceive that the black absolute who is silent there and does not speak is far more dangerous than the white absolute who speaks poorly.

"I didn't ask for your help, if nothing else, I'll go first."

The ghost shark put the shark muscle behind his back, did not drag the mud and water, and turned around to leave.

"If you go on like this, it's hard for you to survive in the ninja world, the strange man of Fog Hidden Village is a persimmon ghost shark."

Breaking the silence, Black Jedi said.

"Have you investigated my information? It seems to have come prepared. ”

The ghost shark turned sideways slightly, his eyes narrowing dangerously.

"We come from an organization and want you to join. As long as you join the organization, the pursuit force of Wuyin Village will pose no threat to you, and you can see our excellent ability to divert the enemy. Even the most elite pursuit troops in Fog Hidden Village will be blinded by the illusion we have created. ”

Black Jedi said.

He understands that for the current ghost shark, the biggest pressure in life is the problem of survival.

And this kind of pressure comes from his own lack of intelligence, so he will be easily targeted by the pursuit and killing troops of Wuyin Village. Every time you escape, it takes a lot of effort to escape safely from the ninjas who are chasing the troops in the fog.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in joining the organization or anything, can you please come and disturb me?"

The ghost shark frowned, and there was a clear look of dissatisfaction on his face.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse, we came here today just to say hello to you and solve the trouble for you. A defector ninja like you who leaves the village will definitely become a key target for the village, and only we can help you. ”

The black absolute was tempted by the good way, and did not rush to recruit the ghost shark into the dawn, but slowly launched a plot.

"Hmph, boring, forget it this time, don't come and bother me in the future. I'm not a good-natured person. ”

The ghost shark snorted coldly, and he didn't pay attention to the threat that Hei Jue said.

Turn around and immediately use the teleportation technique to disappear from the forest under the night.

"Gee, the solicitation failed. He left without hesitation, and seemed too lazy to listen to our nonsense. ”

Shiro never laughed at the big deal.

"No, I didn't expect to succeed in the one-time solicitation, but our sincerity will impress him sooner or later."

Hei was desperate for the direction the ghost shark left, and after saying such a sentence, he slowly sank into the ground, and disappeared with Bai Jue.
