The towering peaks are hidden in the clouds, and from a distance, only the huge silhouette of pitch black can be seen, which is daunting

Unlike the ninja villages of other major countries, which are either built on gentle sand dunes, plains, or even on the coast, Yunyin Village, which belongs to the Land of Thunder, is a ninja village built between mountains and ravines.

There are the most ninjas in the ninja village, and the people are fierce, advocating practical action and strength.

At the same time, it is the most persistent village in the ninja village of the five major countries, and the demand for military power.

On the training ground at the top of a mountain, the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow and his personal secretary Kaminobu Bui appeared here, accompanied by the guard Kaminin Darui, and the Kamishinobu Nozotsu, who is proficient in illusion, medical ninjutsu, and perception ninjutsu.

These two people went to the Iron Country with the four generations of Thunder Shadow to participate in the Five Shadows Conference, which was enough to prove their strength and potential, and they were highly recognized by Thunder Shadow.

"Is this the kunai gun developed by the military of the Oni Country? It looks like the weapons used in the Sky Nation in the past. ”

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow looked at the kunai gun in his right hand, which was a weapon developed by the military of the Oni Country, and in his left hand, he was holding a slightly worn kunai gun, which was a ninja tool used in the empty country in the past.

In the Second Ninja World War, Yun Yin also participated in the ranks of destroying the country of the sky, and also plundered a lot of ninja equipment that belonged to the country of the sky.

"Actually, there is still a difference, the kunai gun developed by the country of ghosts is not only light and durable, but when it is fired, it will automatically attach the attribute chakra, enhancing the speed and penetration of the kunai. In terms of the design of the burst, it is also better than the kunai gun of the empty country in the past. ”

Ma Buyi, who was standing aside, gave a pertinent evaluation.

"That's right, let's not talk about it for the time being, if the lower ninja and the middle ninja are each equipped with such a weapon, then the tactics used in ordinary battles will also be enriched."

As he spoke, the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow picked up the kunai gun developed by the country of the sky on his left hand, pulled the trigger, and a kunai quickly ejected from the barrel and shot at the target in the distance.

Laugh at!

Unsurprisingly, Kunai stabbed into the target and fixed it on it, trembling and shaking.

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow did not speak, then put down his left hand, raised the kunai spear in his right hand developed by the military of the Oni no Kuni, pulled the trigger as he did just now, and with a bang, the kunai in the barrel was fired faster.

Instead of piercing the target, it pierced directly through the wooden target, pierced into the wall behind the target, and took root on the wall, making the piercing position have an additional shocking scar.

The power of the old and the new is judged by the high and the low.

"It's really a terrible weapon, if you take it, you can immediately form a strong combat power."

Kamishinobi, who served as the Thunder Shadow's guard, was amazed when he saw this scene.

This kind of power of kunai was not something to surprise him.

He attached chakra to kunai and could have a similar effect, if not better.

However, if this weapon is popularized on a large scale for the use of the lower ninja, then the sacrifice rate of the lower ninja in battle will be greatly reduced.

will change the tactics of the mid-tier ninjas.

Kamishinobi Darui, who served as the Thunder Shadow Guard with Nozomi, put his hands behind his head and whistled, also expressing surprise.

Such an inconspicuous thing, the kunai that is emitted, and the penetrating force is so powerful, if you are not careful, the upper ninja will also be yin.

"That's right, that's the value of this forbearance. It seems that the military of the Oni no Kuni, like us, is looking for a strong military force. ”

Sabui nodded.

Judging from the popularization of such ninja equipment by the military of the country of ghosts, they have completed the reform of the ninja equipment ahead of schedule, and almost every ninja in the military has one hand, which can be predicted that the military of the country of ghosts is eager for military development.

There are many similarities with the route to be taken by Yunyin Village.

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow did not express an opinion, but threw the kunai gun in his right hand and flew towards Darui.

"Boss?"

Darui took the bitter gun and looked at the four generations of Thunder Shadow suspiciously.

"Darui, use this gun to attack me, and I'll see how penetrating this weapon can be."

The four generations of Thunder Shadow walked into the distance and used themselves as targets.

"What a hassle......

Scratching his head, Darui didn't solve it, holding the kunai gun, and without hesitation, he pointed the muzzle of the gun at the four generations of Thunder Shadow.

Even though the penetration of this weapon is very strong, Darui doesn't feel that such a toy can be harmful to Thunder Shadow.

Even if he didn't use the Thunderbolt Armor, Thunder Shadow's body was as hard as steel, and ordinary kunai couldn't even pierce his skin.

"So, I'm launching."

With that, Darui pulled the trigger and launched the kunai carrying the wind attribute chakra.

The sharp kunai cut through the air and hit the right chest of the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow directly.

As a result, it was like hitting an iron block, and there was a wail directly, and Kunai was bounced off.

"Ah, I knew it was going to be like this."

Darui was stunned, not surprised by such a result.

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow looked at his right chest, and it couldn't be said that he was unharmed, but there was a very thin incision, and if he didn't look closely, it was really not easy to notice.

"It's good to be able to leave a mark on my body."

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow said modestly.

His ninjutsu was passed down from his father's three generations of Thunder Shadow.

Although his body is not as strong as his father's three generations of Thunder Shadow, he can do hand-to-hand combat with tailed beasts, but it is not something that ordinary weapons and ninjutsu can hurt.

So far, apart from the Hyuga clan's soft fist and the spiral pill of the fourth generation Hokage wave feng shui gate, there are no characters who can ignore his tough body.

If the Lightning Armor is attached, the body's defense will increase by one level again.

Most offensive ninjutsu can be ignored directly.

With his own current speed as the number one in the ninja world, it is not difficult to ride a thousand on the battlefield.

After all, compared to the Third Ninja World War, his strength has grown substantially, and it is not the same.

"Although Lord Thunder Shadow's body is very strong, please don't mess around like this, forget it this time."

Samui walked over and sighed and admonished.

"I'm just testing the performance of these weapons...... Well, I have a rough idea of the power of this gun, and this time only 2,000 guns were introduced, and some of them were dismantled and studied by the research department, striving for self-sufficiency. The rest can be discussed, but when it comes to national defense, it must control the production channels. ”

The four generations of Thunder Shadow made the final decision and gave recognition to the Kun no gun.

Part of it is invested in the working ninjas, let them experiment with it, and the other part is handed over to the R&D department to infiltrate the principle of kunai gun, and strive to make their own kunai gun, instead of relying on the country of ghosts.

"Yes, then, about another batch of flying ninja equipment, do you want to test it?"

Azabui asked.

"Don't be so troublesome, I remember that Tutai is in charge of it over there, and I can also take out one or two pieces and hand them over to the R&D department for study."

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow shook his head, and when the weapons saw this, they basically understood the specific positioning of these weapons.

Some of the tactics of today's ninjas can be changed, but they haven't been completely changed.

However, as countries begin to study such weapons, the pattern and tactics of future ninja wars will also change to a certain extent.

This kind of thing was completely predictable for the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow.

Ma Buyi nodded, and recorded the words of the four generations of Thunder Shadow.

"So, is there anything else to deal with next, Azabui? If not, then I'll go and cultivate. ”

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow asked.

The secretary work served by Amuyi will not only help Lei Ying with countermeasures, but also be responsible for arranging Lei Ying's work schedule, greatly improving Lei Ying's office efficiency and striving not to waste time.

"There are two things."

Azabui said at this time.

"What's the matter?"

"Not long ago, Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas of Konoha, sent a piece of information asking us to be wary of a ninja named 'Akako' in the military of the Oni Country. The other party seems to have the ability to destroy Chakra, and I think this information is more important, so I wrote it down. ”

Azabui replied.

"Is the information reliable?"

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow asked.

"Since the source of the information is the three ninjas, it should be reliable."

"Then leave it to the intelligence department to deal with, sort out the detailed report and show it to me."

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow commanded.

"Yes. However, Sannin also provided such information for free, and it seems that Konoha is very jealous of the country of ghosts. ”

Azabui made such a judgment, and it is also predictable that Konoha has indeed been going downhill since the Third Ninja World War.

Before the Five Shadows Conference, he eliminated the wanted warrant for rebellion in the country of ghosts, and he was also criticized by many people internationally, and his prestige was not as good as before.

On the contrary, because Yunyin has always focused on the development of military strength, whether it is the number of ninjas or the logistics of armaments, after the Third Ninja World War, there has been a significant increase.

Recently, the number of merchants who have come to Yunyin to entrust tasks has increased significantly.

Konoha's strength and prestige have declined, so it is natural for guests to go to other ninja villages to entrust tasks.

On the other hand, ninjas in the country of ghosts do not rely on task entrustment to get paid, but they will not be limited by the task system of the five great ninja villages.

As long as the country of ghosts does not involve the task entrustment business, then the share of the mission market that belongs to the five major countries still belongs to the five major countries and does not circulate to the outside. Then, there is no big conflict of interest between Yunyin and the country of ghosts.

As for what to do with the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Thunder, that's their business.

At the beginning of the establishment of Ninja Village, it had been agreed that Yunyin was only responsible for national defense, and political matters were things that the daimyo and nobles needed to consider. Whether it is seeking cooperation or sanctioning the country of ghosts, it has nothing to do with Yun Yin.

However, with the commercial strength that the country of ghosts is now showing, the advantages of cooperation outweigh the disadvantages.

Therefore, Azabui thinks that Sha Yin wants to use the Five Shadows Conference to put pressure on the Oni Country, which is a not very smart move.

There is no reason for the Land of Thunder and Yun Yin to become gunmen in the hands of others.

"It's an internal matter in Konoha, we just need to wait and see what happens. So, what's the second thing? ”

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow asked.

Speaking of this, Ma Buyi's face was a little more solemn, and he reported to the four generations of Thunder Shadow: "That's about Lord Thunder Shadow's request last time, and the target has been found on the side of the dark department. ”

"Request?"

The fourth generation of Lei Ying touched his chin, but he didn't react for a while.

Ma Buyi said: "It's about the strengthening secret technique of strengthening the meridian system of the human body, and the dark department has found such a thing. Lord Thunder Shadow's external body is strong enough, and the only weakness facing the soft fist is the internal defect of the body. ”

"Is it true that you found it, Azabui? Tell me quickly, whose hands is this secret art? ”

After listening, the eyes of the four generations of Lei Ying lit up, and they couldn't wait to ask.

"Sugi no Kuni, a small ninja tribe called Sugi no Village...... In this village, there is an ancient secret art inheritance, which is said to strengthen the meridian system and internal organs within the human body, and if the cultivation is successful, the threat of soft fist to Lord Thunder Shadow will be greatly reduced. ”

Azabui replied.

"Great! Prepare your staff immediately and hurry to this place called Sugi no Village. Those who dare to block the way will all be crushed by Lao Tzu! ”

When the four generations of Thunder Shadow heard this, their eyes flashed with a fine light, revealing the momentum that was bound to be won.

◎

"Business seems to be a bit sluggish lately."

The white-haired man said to the tavern owner.

The tavern owner glanced at the white-haired man and replied, "Yes, because of the strong rise of the Oni no Kuni, business in the western part of the ninja world has become difficult. ”

"Is that an exaggeration?"

The white-haired man asked.

The tavern owner sighed, wiped the glass in his hand, and continued to answer: "It's that difficult to do, and you know that the country of ghosts has a basically zero-tolerance attitude towards this part of the market. Not only the country of ghosts, but also the country of ghosts, the country of bears, and the country of snow near the country of ghosts, the underground market has also been strongly impacted. Many strongholds were directly destroyed. If this continues, the work of bounty hunters will become more and more difficult to mix. ”

It seems that there is no connection between the speeches, but they are not.

The tavern is just a disguise, and the essence here is an underground black market trading platform.

The guests who come to this tavern are people with special status - bounty hunters.

The composition of the bounty hunters comes from the rebel ninjas of various countries, the wandering rootless ninjas, and the wandering samurai who know how to use chakra.

This is a group of violent groups that can do all kinds of bad things for the sake of money.

On the bright side of the ninja world, the five great powers are respected, but in the dark world, it is the underground black market that is rampant.

The relationship between the underground black market is complicated, and the dignitaries of various countries, as well as the big businessmen who are famous in the ninja world, all have secret funding. Pay bounty hunters to do shady things for themselves.

So, the market went up.

The five great powers turned a blind eye to this.

However, unlike the emerging military power, the country of ghosts, the top of their country has a zero-tolerance attitude towards the underground black market.

The underground black market in the countries surrounding the country of Oni was attacked at the same time and was attacked and destroyed by unknown people.

It goes without saying which country is leading behind this.

In the past, when the two major powers of the terroir jointly divided the western part of the ninja world, the current situation did not occur, and as a result, the country of ghosts was just emerging, and the underground black market in the western part of the ninja world was attacked at the same time...... Anyone with a discerning eye knows what's going on.

But in the face of the Oni no Kuni, who defeated the Land of Wind, the big man of the platform can only roar loudly in his room, but there is nothing he can do about it.

Faced with the country of demons who defeated one of the five shadows of the country of wind, the country of the wind, legend has it, Uchiha Ruri summoned a towering giant, and with a single sword, he killed thousands of sand ninjas, and cut down thousands of sand ninjas with only a dozen knives. And the military leader of the country of ghosts, Chiba Shiraishi, is even more terrifying, killing tens of thousands of sand ninja in an instant with one move of ninjutsu.

It's just an underground black market as a trading platform, and naturally it is not qualified to collide with a military power.

Because of this, due to the serious damage in the western region, the recent income of the underground black market has been reduced by two or three percent compared with the previous month.

Even the salaries of these staff members have dropped a little.

"So, will the target's bounty also be adjusted?"

The white-haired man asked about his top concern.

"Not really, if the bounty is lowered, most bounty hunters will be dissatisfied."

The tavern owner laughed.

"That's right. Okay, let's have a few eye-catching tasks, I've been a little idle lately. ”

The white-haired man also laughed.

"The ability of Mr. Wormman's team is worthy of recognition. Speaking of which, since Mr. Kakudu's retirement, the Xuan apes led by Mr. Worm Man are the signature hunters of our underground black market. ”

The tavern owner said in a respectful tone.

"Wherever we are, our colleagues look up to us."

The white-haired man - the worm man smiled modestly.

"Not necessarily, the bounty mission completion rate is close to 100%, and there are many big names who appreciate your abilities. If you are willing to become a retainer of a certain daimyo, you must be a guest. ”

The tavern keeper smiled at the worm man, as if he was speaking for some 'big man'.

The worm man shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, we are used to being free and casual, and if we are controlled by others, we are a little unaccustomed to it." ”

"That's right, Mr. Wormman, you're not yet ready to retire. However, I would also like to warn that being a bounty hunter on the black market is hard to have a good end. Mr. Wormman, think more about his future...... Well, okay, that's all for gossip, there happens to be a task here that needs to be handed over to the Xuan Ape people to complete. ”

The tavern owner handed over a glass of wine.

"Oh? What is it? ”

The worm man picked up the glass, took a sip of the wine inside, and narrowed his eyes.

"The person who issued the mission was an elder of the Sugi Village, and they entrusted the Xuan Ape Crowd led by Mr. Worm Man to recapture their secret arts. The commission fee is 80 million taels. ”

"Eighty million taels? Need such a high bounty? ”

The insect man who heard the reward widened his eyes slightly, and seemed to be a little surprised.

Even the Xuan apes rarely receive such a high reward in a year.

Most of the bounties they receive are around 10 million taels to 30 million taels.

I haven't received a reward of 80 million taels for the task for more than a year.

In the entrustment system of Ninja Village, such a task is undoubtedly the highest S-level difficulty task that requires several shinobi to complete.

"It's a bit hard to believe, but it's a bounty from the client."

The tavernkeeper had a serious expression.

"It seems that the secret technique lost in Sugi Village is not a simple thing...... Or, it is not easy to snatch the object of the secret art of the cedar village. ”

The worm man muttered.

The tavern owner nodded, leaned into the worm man's ear, and said a word.

After hearing this, the worm man's expression became more and more solemn, but he finally nodded and agreed.

Since his debut, Xuan Ape has not had the experience of defeat without a fight.

No matter how difficult the task is, and how terrible the enemy you are facing, you should try your best.

◎

"The secret technique of reclaiming the stolen Sugi Village?"

In the hotel in the town, the worm man who picked up the task discussed it with the other four people of Xuan Ape.

The other four are the native men who use the Earth Escape Ninjutsu.

A fire man who is good at fire escape ninjutsu.

A water man who is proficient in water escape ninjutsu.

and the shadow man who uses the Yin Escape Ninjutsu.

Each of them has been given a systematic technique, although one person is not a powerful ninja, but their strength lies in the combination.

To deal with most enemies, only four people are needed, and once you encounter a strong ninja, Worm Man will use his blaster to blow the enemy to death.

The danger of the burst worm, even one of the three ninjas of Konoha Jiraiya, has suffered in this regard.

And in the ninja world, there are very few ninjas who can compete with the three ninjas. Therefore, the Xuan apes in the underground black market will be feared by everyone and become the guests of the client.

"Yes." Facing Shadow Nan's question, Worm Man nodded and continued: "I heard that a few days ago, some unknown ninjas entered the Land of Sugi, and their goal was to steal some secret art that had been passed down from generation to generation in the Village of Sugi. After a battle, the secret art of Sugi Village was stolen...... The mission issued by the Elder of Sugi Village is to let us recover the stolen mystic scroll of Sugi Village. ”

"So, the person who snatched the secret art of Sugi no Mura is ......"

"Cloud Hidden Ninja."

The worm man slowly spit out this sentence.

The rest of the dead frowned, feeling the trickiness of the matter.

In order to enhance his military strength, Yun Yin went around collecting secret and forbidden arts, which was not a secret in the ninja world.

However, out of awe of the Land of Thunder, the other four countries only turned a blind eye to Yun Yin's approach, and only reprimanded them verbally.

In this way, if Sugi Village really has any powerful secret arts, then it is not an incomprehensible thing to be found out by Yun Yin and thus robbed.

This is Yunyin's authoritarian style.

Because Yun Yin pursued power at all costs, the ninja villages of various countries had to expand their armaments to guard against Yun Yin.

"Who is Yun Yin taking the lead?"

Tunan asked.

The insect man shook his head and replied: "I don't know for the time being, but the only ones who entered the Cedar Village that day to steal the secret art scroll were a few Shangninas from Yunyin Village, who were good at swordsmanship and thunder escape, and injured many people in the Sugi Village. ”

This result is normal.

Sugi Village is just a small village with no name, and it has been in decline for many years, and the upper ninja of Yunyin Village is generally a powerful force faction, and the upper ninja of the small village is even stronger. In such a declining small village, even a few Yunyin Shangnin can't help it, which is not a strange thing.

After all, some ninja villages are really small, and it only takes a few upper ninjas to conquer them.

The ninja power of Sugi Village is not so weak, but it is not much stronger.

"Then go investigate it. Since you have accepted the task, even if the opponent is Yun Yin, you must complete the task. ”

The water man said.

The worm man and other dead people nodded, which is indeed the truth.

After all, it's not that you're not facing a ninja village head-on, but if you just take back the secret scroll, it's not that you can't do it.

Moreover, if the enemy is found to be defeated by then, it is not too late to retreat.

In the face of an opponent like Yun Yin, they didn't dare to be careless.

"In addition, after completing this task, the headquarters has also entrusted a task to come."

The worm man said at this time.

"What task?"

The insect man glanced at everyone and said, "The leader asked us to find the whereabouts of Tsunade, one of the three ninjas, and it seems that we have something important to discuss with her. If there are no other problems, let's go. ”

After the worm man finished speaking, he took the lead out of the guest room, and the other four people followed, and began to chase down the cloud hidden ninja who stole the secret art scroll of the cedar village with the worm man.
