"Bishop?"

The clergyman who came to him was an old man over sixty years old.

But he's not in good shape right now.

Not only was there burns all over the body, but there were also three ninja knives stuck in his back, and in addition, a huge blood hole was broken in the chest, and blood was gushing out.

With such an injury, a ninja would have died a long time ago.

But the old man survived.

Not only that, but the vitality in his body is still very strong.

The black blade in his hand was stained with blood, the blood of his own people, and the blood of his enemies.

The thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy named Fei Duan looked at the old man who came to him with some surprise.

It is the big man who holds the position of bishop in the cult of the evil god he believes in.

"Ahem, fly, fly ......"

Although the vitality is still very strong, the injuries on the old man's body still cannot be effectively resolved, and the fatigue of the body is becoming more and more obvious.

If it weren't for his strong willpower, he might have fallen under the enemy's attack.

Throwing down the wildflowers he had picked from the grass, he came to the old bishop's side, holding him by the body and letting him rest by the tree.

"Don't bother, I'm going to die soon......"

The old bishop said.

The three ninja knives behind his back, each one pierced through his heart.

Even though the vitality is still vigorous, the vitality is still passing at a very fast rate.

Eventually...... He was not blessed by the evil gods, and he could not obtain the perfect body of immortality.

This regret, along with his imminent death, disappeared.

"Huh?"

Fei Duan was a little overwhelmed, staring blankly at the bishop who had been fine a few days ago, wondering why he had suddenly become like this.

"Your Excellency...... Isn't it immortal? ”

Fei Duan asked dumbfoundedly.

Yes, with the ability of immortality, how can a person die?

"Immortal ......"

The old bishop chewed on the word and smiled bitterly.

Although the cult does possess such abilities, not every cultist is able to obtain them.

It is better to say that because the power of immortality is too strong, as of the current position, except for the original founder, there is no second person in the cult who has obtained an immortal body.

His body is just too strong to ignore most of his injuries and fight forever with the support of willpower.

But if someone breaks his limbs, he will only become a lamb to the slaughter.

There is still time.

It is the most ruthless and terrifying force in the world.

The immortal cannot live forever. If you don't eat, you will die.

This is also a limitation of the immortal body.

But even so, this ability can be called powerful.

If it weren't for the accumulation of the Cult of Evil Gods, he would have died no less than ten times in the previous battles.

"The enemy will come soon, you get out of here quickly, you are the last hope of our cult, whether the cult can be carried forward in the future depends on you."

The old bishop looked at Fei Duan with a fanatical gaze and said.

Unlike him, Fei Duan, a loyal cultist, has a body that is very much in line with the forbidden art of the cult, and has an immortal body that is even more powerful than him.

The only flaw is that the brain is not very good, and it is not right to say that it is simple and low IQ, it should be a reckless character, and it is relatively easy to be dull, and, except for the evil gods, there is no so-called awe.

However, such a believer is the object of the evil god's affection.

"Even if you say so, Bishop......"

Fei Duan frowned in annoyance.

He just sneaked out for a walk, and when he returned, he found that the bishop of the sect was about to be killed, and the cult of the evil god was about to be destroyed.

The world was changing so fast that his brain didn't react immediately.

"This is the evil god forbidden technique that can only exert its full power with the true immortal body-the death division relies on blood. Originally, I wanted to teach you this forbidden technique in person, but at present, it seems that there is no time left, and you can only rely on yourself to figure it out. ”

The old bishop regretfully took out a scroll, solemnly put the scroll in Fei Duan's hand, and continued to urge him to leave quickly.

Fei Duan accepted the scroll and was about to get up to leave, when he suddenly turned around, smiled and asked, "By the way, Lord Bishop, do you want me to perform the final ceremony for you?" ”

"What?"

The old bishop did not react.

Poof!

The same black spike blade unfurled from Fei Duan's hand and slashed mercilessly through the old bishop's neck.

The head rolled to the ground, blood gushing out.

The old bishop's expression remained stunned, and he passed away.

Fei Duan looked at the body of the bishop's detached head, and very solemnly slashed his abdomen with a black thorn blade, endured the pain, let the blood flow, and drew a strange symbol on the ground with a triangle in the middle of the circle, and placed the body of the old bishop between the symbols.

Afterwards, Fei Duan removed the silver pendant from his neck, which was identical to the ground symbol, closed his eyes, and began to pray.

"Bishop, may your soul return to the arms of the evil gods and rest in peace."

The cult of the evil god will be carried forward, so leave such a glorious future to me. Fei Duan's heart was surging with blood, and the corners of his mouth curled, revealing a strange and evil smile.

……

Black-clad ninjas surrounded the woods, looking at the corpse of the old bishop, who had been detached, in the blood-painted symbol of the cult, his blood spurting on the ground and the bark of the trees beside it.

His expression remained stunned, and it is conceivable that his death happened suddenly, and unexpectedly, he was beheaded.

"This is a prayer ritual for the funeral of the cult."

A ninja in black said.

"Did you die at the hands of your own people? However, all the people on the list should be cleared, this bishop is the last fighting power of the cult. ”

Another black-clad ninja said.

"Yes, the cultists of the evil gods in Tangyin Village have also been killed, so there should be no fish that slipped through the net."

The ninjas were puzzled.

It can't be this bishop who cut off his own head after drawing the symbols, right?

If that were the case, it would be impossible for the old bishop to show such an expression.

"No, I remember that some cultists of the evil god said that there seems to be an extremely mysterious god son in their sect, who is said to be a holy child who has comprehended all the essence of the evil god."

“…… It's really suspicious. There is no so-called record of the Cult of God's Son on the list. ”

"Anyway, let's take the body back first, the body of the cultist is a little abnormal, it's better to bring it back for examination."

The ninjas in black began to talk about it, and soon agreed on it.

Although there may be fish that have slipped through the net, those are not under the jurisdiction of the chasing force.

They only follow the list to solve.

If the cult really slips through the net, the spy department will first investigate whether the situation is true or not, and then they can dispatch to avoid killing innocent people.

After all, the Cult of the Evil God has been entrenched in the territory of the Land of the Evil God for a long time, and even the Village of the Hidden Divine Sect has been brainwashed by some ninjas by the sect of the Evil God Sect, so you can imagine the terrible thing about this sect.

It is difficult to predict what kind of joint reaction a cult of evil gods with killing and destruction as its sect doctrine and mercenary ninja village will have.

If you don't eliminate it now, it will be even more difficult to remove it in the future.

The righteousness of this sect is even more terrifying than that of the underworld forces to the unarmed ordinary people.

"The Cult of the Evil God was destroyed, and the leader of Tang Yin Village agreed to cooperate with the Ghost Country, so that the gate of the Tang Country was finally pried open. All that's left is to guide the work, and at the right time, become a sharp blade that pierces the heart of the Land of Thunder. ”

Shiraishi, who returned to the country of ghosts from the isolated island, was in the office for the first time, and got the message from the location of the country of Yu.

The staff there, with the help of the cover of the low-level 'compatriots' in the land of Yu, successfully destroyed the cult of evil gods in the territory of the country of Yu, and at the same time helped the village of Yuyin to stabilize its rule.

Unlike the rumors of the fall of Yuyin Village rumored by the outside world, what the Ghost Country eliminated this time was only the ninjas of Yuyin Village who were brainwashed by the Cult of the Evil God, which belonged to a 'civil war'. Although the process of the civil war destroyed many buildings in Tangyin Village, the effect was also very obvious, and the influence of the Cult was completely eliminated from the territory of Tangyin Village.

However, it is also an indisputable fact that the strength of Tangyin Village has declined.

The brainwashing ability of the cult is very powerful, and the followers are basically mentally abnormal people who kill people without blinking, even if ordinary people join in and come out a month later, they will be very fanatical to kill people and set fires, and they will be called for the so-called evil gods, sacrificing the lost lamb in the world.

Once a ninja is brainwashed by the cult, he will become a murderer who is even more terrible than ordinary cultists.

For the followers of this sect, killing people is preaching righteousness, and only by killing the world that exists can the evil gods they believe in be satisfied and blessed with divine grace.

Pity...... At the last moment of being destroyed, the miracle of the evil god did not appear.

The four hundred and twenty-three ordinary cultists composed of ordinary people, the one hundred and seventy-two elite cultists composed of ninjas, and several bishops all returned to the embrace of the evil god in their mouths.

It's a well-deserved death.

As for those who have not been completely brainwashed and belong to supernumerary members, they have been let go for the time being. However, the wandering shrine maidens who stay in the territory of the land of Yuno will monitor these people with potential safety hazards in the name of practicing medicine for a period of three years.

This operation, which carried out preliminary cooperation with Tangyin Village, also eliminated the evil god cult that caused the disaster, and on the whole, it was a very successful operation.

With the partner of Tangyin Village, it will be extremely easy to infiltrate the bottom of Yuno Country next.

However, considering that the diplomatic postures of the Land of Thunder and the Land of Fire are completely different, Shiraishi felt that it would take a period of silence to reduce the sense of presence before he could act blatantly in the territory of the Land of Yu.

As for how to deploy it, a high-level meeting will be held after the year, and then it will be decided.

There are many aspects involved, and no matter how much he thinks about it, he can't take care of all the things on all levels.

On top of that, it's too tiring to think about things alone.

Finally, the Chinese New Year is approaching, and you should relax your body at this time.

"Speaking of which, Yiji will come back for the New Year, and in terms of time, it's almost there."

Shiraishi said this, and was about to pick up his cup to drink tea when there was a knock on the door.

"Old man, I'm back."

Kazuhime unceremoniously pushed open the door and calmly walked in from the outside.

That's it.

Shiraishi reluctantly put down the cup and said, "Welcome back." ”

"Why do you look unhappy?"

"No, I'm thinking about the reorganization of the army next year."

Shiraishi said.

"Army reorganization?"

Kazuhime tilted her head, a little confused by Shiraishi's statement.

"Yes, but this kind of adaptation is still only in the initial stage, and a meeting will be held after the year before it can be decided."

"Why?"

"Decentralization of power and promotion of mid-level and junior officers. And the establishment of ordinary soldiers and ninjas should also be dispersed. Similarly, there is a distinction between ninjas and blood limit ninjas. ”

Although this distinction will attract some objections.

However, in a way, the world is not very 'equal'.

The average strength of a ninja is stronger than that of the average person.

The Blood Inheritance Limit Ninja is also superior to the average strength of ordinary ninjas.

The three types of soldiers with different combat effectiveness are distinguished and managed separately, and at the same time correspond to different functions.

The military's current management model is still only in its embryonic stage, and this system has not yet matured.

Kazuhime nodded, not objecting to anything.

"Speaking of which, didn't Thundering Pill come back with you?"

Shiraishi didn't see the figure of Thunder Ming Maru, which was a little strange.

"It's in the Land of Waves, and will be back in a few days."

Kazuhime replied.

After speaking, she took out a document and put it in front of Shiraishi.

It is her debriefing document that shows all the big and small things she has experienced in the country of waves in the past few months.

"Debriefing documents? I'll watch, let's rest at home for a while before leaving, your mother misses you a little bit too. ”

Shiraishi put Kazuhime's debriefing document aside, didn't look at it immediately, and said to Kazuhime.

"Got it, I'll go find my brother first, the bullets he gave me last time are almost running out, and I need to replenish them."

Kazuhime turned and left the office.

"A flintlock pistol loaded with chakra bullets? It's a pity that it can't be mass-produced at the moment......"

It's not any metal, it can withstand the power of chakra bullets, and it would be a bit of a joke if it was directly exploded.

The flintlock pistol that Asuka made based on the kunai gun is a sophisticated product, and it is impossible to take it to the factory for mass production, and if the cost is reduced to manufacture, then the corresponding chakra bullet will have to cut corners.

The Land of Thunder.

Yunyin Village.

Thunder Shadow returned victoriously with the ninja troops, and not only that, but among the returning teams, there were two with special blood inheritance limits.

As a result of the deal with the Oni Country, ordinary ninjas were captured and handed over to the Oni Country for disposal, and the Oni Country paid the corresponding money.

And the research value of the Blood Inheritance Limit Ninja is very high, and the four generations of Thunder Shadow have no interest in that group of ordinary ninja captives, but the Blood Inheritance Limit Ninja cannot be traded.

This trip to the isolated island can be said to be a full return.

On the other side of the island, the country of thunder has not negotiated deeply, and even if it falls, it will not affect the economic problems of the country of thunder.

Not only that, but the country of thunder, which has received such a huge profit, has a fuller treasury. In this way, more and more funds will be invested in the development of Yunyin Village.

According to the development funds given by the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder, after five years, Yunyin Village will have 20,000 official ninjas.

With such a ninja force of this size, the Land of Thunder will become the first great country, and Yunyin Village will become the first ninja village, and this dream is just around the corner.

This kind of dream, in the first Thunder Shadow period, has entered the bones of all Cloud Hidden Ninjas.

Unfortunately, the second generation of Thunder Shadow was defeated by the second generation of Hokage and was forced to agree to sign an armistice. As a result, he was beheaded by the traitors Golden Horn and Silver Horn brothers, who were unwilling to stop the war.

Subsequently, his father, the third generation of Thunder Shadow, ascended to the throne and worked hard to see that the Third Ninja War was a good opportunity for Yunyin to rise, and finally died in the conspiracy of the three generations of Tsuchikage Onoki.

However, at that time, Konoha fought on multiple fronts, and the losses were heavy, and the four generations of Thunder Shadow wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to severely damage Konoha, but they encountered the Konoha ninja who left endless shadows - the Yellow Flash Wave Feng Shui Gate, and ran back to the Land of Thunder with a disgraced face.

And this time, Konoha will not have another chance to defeat Yunyin Village.

The defection of the three ninjas, the other two did not listen to the announcement, the yellow flash seal tailed beast was sacrificed, the Uchiha clan was destroyed, and the high-end combat power can be said to be almost completely annihilated.

There is also the country of ghosts, a new military powerhouse, eyeing it from the sidelines, and the country of Konoha and fire is difficult to support alone, and abdicating to make way for Xian is the best choice.

As for the Land of the Wind and the Sand Hide, the four generations of Thunder Shadow never took the Sand Hide in their eyes.

Not to mention the strength of the army, today's Yunyin is far superior to the other party, even the high-end combat power and backbone combat power are also more than Shayin Village. There is also the country of ghosts to contain it, so there is no need to focus on the country of sand and wind.

"Lord Thunder Shadow, this is the information from the front line of the Land of Soup, please take a look."

After returning to the office, before the four generations of Thunder Shadow had time to catch their breath, the secretary Ma Buyi presented an intelligence document very intimately for the four generations of Thunder Shadow to see.

"I said, Mabuyi, I just came back, I haven't even had time to drink tea, can't you let me take a break today?"

Although the body's endurance is very strong, after so many years of busyness, the four generations of Thunder Shadow also feel a little overwhelmed.

"Although I also want to take care of your feelings, Lord Thunder Shadow, this matter is more important."

Azabui stood there quietly, answering meticulously.

"If there's anything to say directly, I don't want to read the paperwork."

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow put down the intelligence paperwork, lay down with his back against the sofa, and asked Darui on the side to pour himself a glass of water by the way.

"Okay."

Seeing the appearance of the four generations of Thunder Shadow, Ma Buyi had no choice but to sigh helplessly, and continued: "The incident happened suddenly, and the village did not make corresponding arrangements, that is, Tangyin Village was attacked by unknown people not long ago, and many buildings were damaged. And in the territory of Yunokuni, there have been a lot of rush incidents. ”

The eyes of the four generations of Thunder Shadow flickered, slightly surprised, and quickly regained their composure, and asked, "What's going on, let's be specific." ”

"About the cult."

"Cult? I see, is it the infighting in Tangyin Village? ”

The four generations of Thunder Shadow reacted.

The Cult of the Evil God has brainwashed many ninjas in Tang Yin Village, causing a division of power, which is the information that Yun Yin Village has already discovered.

However, Yun Yin didn't care about this kind of thing.

Instead, I think it's a good thing.

Tang Yin Village, which is fighting against the Cult of the Evil God, will be much weaker, and there is no need to worry about the border security of the Land of Thunder.

Even if it was possible, Yun Yin didn't mind fanning the flames in the back and letting these two forces lose both. In this way, the national power of Yunokuni will decline again.

"Yes, although Tangyin Village was attacked by unknown people, most of the people who died, according to the investigation, were members of the Cult of Evil Gods. Not only that, but in the territory of the Land of Soup, many branches of the Cult of the Evil God have been destroyed. ”

"Who are those unknown people?"

"It seems to be from the underground black market."

Azabui said.

"Hmph, relying on a group of mercenaries to solve the problem, exactly the same as that stinky old man of Onoki."

The fourth generation of Lei Ying pouted unhappily.

"This kind of thing, there is no need to make such a fuss, Yun Yin has no need to meddle."

After this encounter, it will be impossible for Tang Yin Village to regain its strength within a few years.

And after all, it's just a small country ninja village, and Yun Yin's attention should be focused on the country of fire, not the country of soup.

"It's just that, I won't say this kind of thing so seriously, but in some of the arenas, I found some very strange traces."

"Strange traces?"

The four generations of Thunder Shadow tilted their heads and looked at Ma Buyi.

Darui walked over at this time, holding a glass of water in his hand: "Boss, bring the water." ”

"Thank you."

The fourth generation of Lei Ying took the water cup and drank it all, then continued to look at Ma Buyi and asked, "Ma Buyi, what are the strange traces you are talking about?" ”

Sabuyi didn't answer, but stepped aside and took out a clear plastic hygiene bag with a strange red goo, something like blood.

"It's ...... Somewhat familiar? I seem to have seen ...... in Yunyin's database."

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow stared at the red goo in the transparent plastic bag, thoughtful.

"According to the instrument, this is the remnant of the ninjutsu of the Blood Pool clan."

Azabui sighed.

“！？”

The eyes of the four generations of Thunder Shadow widened, revealing an extremely shocked color.

"The Pool of Blood? It's impossible, hasn't that clan been wiped out? How can it be!? ”

The blood pool clan that has long been reduced to history, even if it has a very glorious history in the past, but there will be a day of decline.

Just like the Konoha Uchiha today.

It has become a remnant of history.

It's just that the Blood Pool clan is not as lucky as the Uchiha clan, and the Uchiha in Konoha has been diluted from history, and as a result, it has made a comeback in the country of ghosts, and its demeanor is still undiminished.

"The Pool of Blood?"

Darui was at a loss on his face, what kind of family is this?

Nozomi on the other side was also puzzled, and he didn't know why when he mentioned this so-called Blood Pool Clan, their Lord Thunder Shadow would be so surprised.

The four generations of Thunder Shadow's face was cloudy, and he didn't answer, and Ma Buyi replied: "The Blood Pool clan has a deep relationship with our Thunder Country. ”

"Huh?"

This made Darui and Nozomi even more puzzled.

If that's the case, why would, as the Shangnin of Yunyin Village, not know about these things?

"During the period when the ninja village was not established, the daughter of the patriarch of the Blood Pool clan married the daimyo of the Thunder Country at that time as a side room, and the status of the Blood Pool Clan in the Thunder Country also rose. It's a pity, because the daughter of the patriarch of the Blood Pool clan has a gentle temperament and beautiful appearance, she was quickly jealous of the Daimyo Masamu of the Land of Thunder at that time. Shortly after marrying her, the daimyo of the Land of Thunder died, and the Shomuro convicted the daughter of the patriarch of the Pool of Blood in the name of the Evil Star, and at the same time, the Pool of Thunder clan was exiled by the Land of Thunder. ”

Sabuyi told the story.

Even in Yunyin Village, few people know about this.

However, as Lei Ying's secretary, she is naturally qualified to know about these past events.

Mabuyi continued: "The exiled Bloodpool clan was not willing to be defeated and wanted to resist. However, it was the Uchiha clan who was very famous in the ninja world at that time. Although the Blood Pool Clan also possessed a very excellent Hitomi-type Blood Inheritance Limit Blood Dragon Eye, it was still no match for the Uchiha Clan, and their resistance was quickly suppressed. The Daimyo Masamuto gave a generous commission, and asked the Uchiha clan to send someone to monitor the Blood Pool clan all year round. Later, when the era of one country and one village came, the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan established Konoha and at the same time evacuated the surveillance of the Blood Pool clan and were no longer hired by the Land of Thunder. ”

"What about the extermination?"

Darui asked.

Ma Buyi shook his head and said: "We don't know, the exiled Blood Pool Clan lived in the barren land of the Thunder Country, and later the Yunyin Village was established, and for the Blood Pool Clan, the Thunder Country was even less concerned. After that, I heard the news that the Blood Pool Clan was wiped out, and the Blood Dragon Eye of the Blood Pool Clan was also extinct in the ninja world. ”

But unexpectedly, now the blood dragon eye does not seem to be extinct, and the descendants of this clan are still active in the ninja world.

"Lord Thunder Shadow, what should I do, do you want to track it down?"

Azabui asked.

"The Blood Pool Clan's Blood Dragon Eye ability is quite special, and the Blood Pool Clan who appeared in the Land of Tang is obviously a mercenary on the underground black market. However, the underground black market personnel are intricate, and if they want to investigate, even if they are hidden, it will be very difficult. Not only that, the people of this clan are very disgusted with the Thunder Country because of the past incident, and if Yunyin Village looks for it on a large scale, it will only startle the grass and snakes, and even attract revenge. ”

As for sending small units, secret investigations...... The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow was not hopeful.

The Blood Dragon's Eye, like the Writing Wheel Eye, has a very powerful illusion, and is extremely good at positional warfare.

By creating wounds for the enemy and creating a suicide bomb, the ability is even more bizarre than the Sharingan.

If you recklessly break into the trap, even if you have Shangnin leading the team, it will be more than lucky.

Azabui nodded, complying with Thunder Shadow's decision.

"However, if there are any signs of activity in the future, let's pay a little attention. The current ninja world is not a battle between ninja and ninja, but a battle between villages and villages. ”

Therefore, for the descendants of the Blood Pool Clan hidden in the shadows, the four generations of Thunder Shadow are not too worried.

It is already history that the ninja clan dominates the ninja world.

It's just the last descendant of a clan, and they don't dare to take revenge on the country of thunder.

After so many years, there is no sign of the activities of the Blood Pool Clan, which has proved that this family has completely declined, and it is no longer the blood inheritance limit family with a large population in the past.

"If nothing else, then I'll go back and get some rest."

The fourth generation of Lei Ying rubbed his somewhat dizzy head, got up and prepared to go home to rest.

"There's one more thing that has to do with you, Lord Thunder Shadow."

Ma Buyi stopped the four generations of Thunder Shadow, and his expression was a little subtle.

"Something to do with me?"

The four generations of Thunder Shadow were stunned.

"Yes, this is a bill sent by the Tea Country Casino, and you need to sign it yourself."

"Casinos? What casino? ”

The four generations of Lei Ying looked confused, he had never had any bad habits, and he didn't have time for cultivation, how could he gamble?

Then, the hearts of the four generations of Thunder Shadow sank, and they remembered something.

Tsunade!

He suddenly remembered that Tsunade had made an antidote for him to deal with the Bursting Worms of the Xuan Ape, and he needed to pay for a gamble for Tsunade.

Azabui didn't explain, and gave Darui and Nozomi a vague look.

The two of them understood, and quietly exited the office with Azabuyi.

The four generations of Thunder Shadow didn't care, opened the bill, and saw a number '9' at first glance, followed by many '0'.

Thunder Shadow starts counting several 0s, one, two, three...... Six...... Eight......

The calm expression on his face couldn't be held back, and a certain string in his brain was also directly broken, and endless thunder light appeared all over his body, and his breath became as violent as a beast.

"Damn Tsunade old woman! Die for Lao Tzu!!! ”

An angry roar roared from Thunder Shadow's office.

Bang!

The Thunder Shadow Office, located on the top of the mountain, exploded without the slightest warning, and the thunder rushed all the way into the air, making the villagers passing by below pay attention.
