The moment Shitou Muichiro appeared, the head of the ghost lantern Shuiyue was almost twisted one hundred and eighty degrees to look at Xiao Nan.

He has been away from the country of rain for more than a month, and it has been less than ten days since Muichiro's resurrection, so the two do not know each other.

Also who knows little about Muichiro is Yakushidou.

His daily range of activities is the hospital, the school, and the dormitory, but he has heard from the students that there is a cute-looking boy in the village, but he has not seen it with his own eyes.

Now that he finally saw his true face, he immediately smelled a hint of familiarity from Muichiro's hair color and expression, and glanced at Xiao Nan with deep meaning.

Just when Xiao Nan felt that he had never experienced such an embarrassing situation in his life, Ghost Lantern Shui Yue was worthy of being a righteous and brave disciple.

He actually ignored the atmosphere as if it were nothing, and pointed at Shi Tou Muichiro and asked Xiao Nan loudly: "Why did you never say that you still have such a big child?" ”

"Have a child?"

"Kid?"

"Huh?"

The voice of the ghost lantern water moon vibrated back and forth in Xiao Nan's mind and even in the veins of his body like a magic spell.

Her skin was hot, and it felt as if there were countless ants crawling on her body.

The situation where she imagined in her mind that a private conversation with Shinobu was difficult enough.

But I never thought that someone would shout out her suspicions as facts.

Just when she didn't know how to behave—whether to take the opportunity to ask Butterfly Shinobu or deny drawing a line, the immortal Kawa Genya, who was originally following Muichiro, stepped forward quickly and kicked the shin of the ghost lantern Suigetsu into a splash.

"Oops! What are you doing?! I'm almost out of chakra, what if I can't connect my legs? ”

"Then get out of the way! Less nonsense here! ”

[Well done. 】

At least three people in the house had the same idea. As for who it is, let's not say for the time being.

Pushing the angry Shui Yue aside, the immortal Chuan Xuanya asked about the matter: "Shinobu senior, what happened?" ”

The pharmacist silently pushed his glasses.

He had always felt that Immortal Kawa Genya's name for Butterfly Shinobi was very strange.

In their culture, the word "senior" is not necessarily used to refer to elders.

More often than not, the use of the term "senior" or "junior" between two people means that they have attended the same school or worked in the same department.

Butterfly Shinobi's genes are almost exactly the same as those of Thousand Hands Pillar, and the fact that she's an artificial human is almost obvious. So why would someone call her a senior when she is an artificial person?

On the other hand, this immortal Chuan Genya is obviously a corpse bone vein, with the same hair color and bone quality as Jun Maro, but he is the same as Butterfly Shinobi, using a surname that can't be beaten by the Eight Poles of the Blood Inheritance Limit, the more you think about it, the more suspicious it becomes.

It's a pity that Pharmacist didn't have the opportunity to get the genetic data of Immortal River for testing.

But Yakushidou is almost certain that the origin of the immortal river Genya must be similar to that of Butterfly Shinobi, and it may even be made by her own hands.

Now, a third suspicious child has appeared, with a hair color and expression that resembles Xiao Nan.

In connection with the fact that the crow sent by the Butterfly Ninja to deliver the news, he said "as a pillar", what does this sentence mean?

Could it be that this group of artificial humans still has an organization in private? What does the word "column" represent? Chieftain?

Yakushidou waited silently, waiting for Shito Muichiro to open his mouth and call Butterfly Shinobi.

If it's the same "senior", then things are really interesting.

"Don't be nervous. I called you here to show you these things. ”

Butterfly Shinobu pointed behind her.

“……”

Genya and Muichiro looked at the water tank, and then at Butterfly Shinobi, their eyes confused at the same time.

Butterfly Shinobu glanced back, only to realize that the octopuses were actually missing.

"Do you still have this ability?"

She took a stun stick out of her desk, put the stunner head in the water, and pressed the button—

The four octopuses in the tank struggled and twisted to appear.

As the ghost lantern Shui Yue said, this kind of octopus that has not been eliminated for two hundred fog ninjas for two months is very cunning, and its mimicry ability has actually reached the point of stealth.

"Now you can." Butterfly Shinobu looked at the two, more precisely Muichiro, "Look closely and see if there's anything strange about them." ”

Muichiro immediately realized, and his originally slightly dazed gaze suddenly focused, shooting towards one of the octopuses like a sharp arrow.

After a moment of silence, his relaxed face suddenly tensed, "It's not like any other octopus I've seen before. ”

"More specifically?" Butterfly Shinobu leaned forward, "What's wrong?" ”

Although she had already seen some clues through the dissection, she had observed more comprehensively through the world.

"Its siphon port is not connected to the digestive organs."

Muichiro pointed through the glass to what most people thought was the "mouth" of an octopus.

Actually, this place is used by normal octopuses to excrete and squirt ink.

If the octopus needs to move faster, the siphon will also spray a stream of water behind it, acting like a rocket thruster.

"Wait a minute...... Xiao Nan interrupted Muichiro a little strangely, "You, can you see directly inside its body?" ”

What is it? Konoha has white eyes?

"Isn't that just like the teacher?"

The ghost lantern Shuiyue, who connected her legs back, shouted, "Wait a minute, are you the son of Aunt Angel, or the twin brother of the teacher?" I remember that guy wasn't named Sasuke......"

"Don't make a fuss, Kyojuro can do the same thing."

Butterfly Shinobu choked on the ghost lamp Shuiyue who continued to diverge his thoughts with a word, and explained by the way.

"Muichiro was found by Yoshiyo in the Land of Snow. He was born with the ability to learn anything quickly, and this way of observation should have been learned from Yi Yong. ”

This is simply a reversal of cause and effect. But it dispelled Xiao Nan and Shui Yue's doubts very well.

Of course, the pharmacist does not believe a word. But he was very discerning, and he didn't say a word about it.

"So, it's not connected to the digestive organs, is there something wrong?"

Immortal Kawa Genya asked at the right time.

He was illiterate and didn't quite understand why the octopus wouldn't poop that made Butterfly Shinobu so nervous to call them back.

"It doesn't have an excretory function," Muichiro replied with a stiff face, "meaning it is able to fully digest the food it eats." ”

"Wait......" Genya looked at Muichiro in disbelief and then at Butterfly Shinobi, "You mean?" ”

They both nodded at the same time.

They usually look the most relaxed and comfortable, but today they also showed extraordinary solemnity.

In Genmi's cognition, there is only one creature in the world that does not need to excrete, and that is ghosts.

They may spit out parts they don't like, such as bones that have been eaten, from their mouths, but the food that has been digested will be converted into blood instead of feces in the ghost's body.

At the same time, the octopuses seemed to have finally recovered from the electric shock, but they tacitly stuck to the glass wall of the water tank, as if they were about to gnaw off Muichiro's fingers through a barrier.

Butterfly Shinobu remembered this scene.

"Of course, that's not enough to say for sure."

Butterfly Shinobu consciously moved closer to the water tank, and sure enough, two more octopuses gave up Muichiro's fingers, appearing more interested in her, "Is there anything else strange?" ”

"At the base of each of their brachiopods, there is a strange mass growing on it......"

Muichiro tilted his head in confusion, "I can't tell what it's useful for the time being." ”

"What's that?" Xiao Nan asked.

"It's the octopus's independent brain that controls the wrist." "The average octopus has three hearts and nine brains, each of which is responsible for different functions. ”

Just the description of the plural brain and heart has already made the immortal Kawa Genya have some bad associations.

Suddenly, Muichiro spoke up: "But the things on this octopus's brachiopods are not just brains, but a whole set of organs that have not yet developed. ”

"Huh?" I don't know how many times I've used this word today.

"That means," Shinobu said solemnly, walking over to the desk and lifting the wooden box that was upside down on the table, revealing the corpse of the dissected octopus.

"If you only attack the head and body of an octopus, you can kill it......"

The crowd gathered around and noticed that the severed octopus should have been dead for a long time, but its tentacles were still bouncing.

However, when the light was illuminated, the tentacles calmed down as if they were feeling everyone's gaze.

"But each of its wrists and feet is absorbing the remaining nutrients in its head and body, cultivating the set of undeveloped organs in its own body."

Muichiro stared at the corpse on the table, reporting what was happening beneath its skin.

"That is," a rare hint of surprise flashed in the Medicine Master's eyes, "if they finish absorbing the nutrients from the corpses, will they go from one to eight?" It's no wonder that two hundred ninjas have been cleaning them up for so long. ”

"That's how it should be."

Butterfly Shinobu suddenly understood.

"I remember that almost everyone in the Mist Ninja was armed with a sword. I guess the way they clean up these octopuses is to chop or stab them with knives in the sea, right? ”

"That's what they did."

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue nodded, "Except for the woman and her people who directly dissolved this octopus by acid, most of the rest of the people were done by splitting the octopus's head with one sword." ”

(Note: The bulge on the top of the octopus is actually its body, and its head is located in the middle part of the body that connects the body to the brachiopods, that is, the small piece around the eyes.) ）

Then, he clapped his hands: "I didn't say it when I didn't think it was important." These little octopuses do have only eight legs......

"But those half-man-tall guys start with at least twelve legs."

In other words, it looks like only one has been killed, but there are at least twelve more in the making.

"What a wonderful creature...... Such a strong survivability, even more tenacious than a snake lizard, like something that Orochimaru-sama would be interested in. ”

The medicine man lifted the frame, "But such an interesting existence, I have never heard of before, it looks like a new species."

"I'm really curious how it evolved to be what it is now, even if you don't mention this splitting ability, just not needing to excrete has already violated the basic rules of most life."

"yes, I asked the slug before who talks so loudly."

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue added, "Even it has to poop after eating." ”

"Is it a more special species than the immortals? It's pretty unexpected. ”

"Do you remember the flying segment?" Butterfly Shinobu suddenly aimed at Yakushi's Pocket.

"Of course, how can you forget. A person who can survive with only one head, even Neto and Orochimaru-sama want to know his secret. ”

Yakushidou nodded: "What, Miss Shinobi, do you think there is some kind of connection between Feiduan and this octopus?" ”

"Ahh Speaking of the flying section, the ghost lantern Shui Yue suddenly showed an exaggerated expression of "I remembered": "That shark!" ”

Hearing this word, the three of Butterfly Shinobi, Genya, and Muichiro exchanged a look with each other. And Xiao Nan, who had been listening, was completely stunned.

"What sharks? What the hell are you talking about? ”

"It was the night when the Fog Hidden Village attacked Tang Ren, and the teacher cut off Fei Duan's head, but the part below the neck of that guy was swallowed by the shark that was channeled by the ninjas of the Dried Persimmon Clan."

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue recalled: "Later, the teacher tortured Fei Duan's head on the way to the land of water, and the blood on his neck dripped into the sea, causing several wild sharks to undergo mutations, and even grow crystal scales that can reflect sunlight, and ordinary weapons can't even destroy its skin."

"According to the teacher, just a few drops of flying blood allowed those sharks to complete millions of years of evolution within a few days......

"That's not evolution, that's a genetic mutation."

Butterfly Shinobu corrected rigorously: "At present, these octopuses that have mutated with super digestive ability should be affected by the shark that devoured the torso of the flying segment.

"Or, it was the shark that died for some reason and the carcass was eaten, and these octopuses or their ancestors were among the eaters.

"Either that, or the shark was injured and the blood spread and infected the octopus. Of course, other possibilities are not ruled out......"

What Butterfly Shinobu is most worried about is that the shark's special features are discovered, so it will be used by people with intentions.

After all, it was a psychic beast.

Just like slugs, a psychic animal doesn't necessarily have to sign a contract with only one person.

Although the whale is dead, the other contractors of the shark will find out sooner or later, and it is only a matter of time.

Unless, all the people of the persimmon clan are dead.

"Is this for sure?"

Yakushidou, who once wanted to discover his immortal body with the blood of Feiduan, didn't believe in this simple visual diagnosis.

He asked Butterfly Shinobi, "Why don't you take these octopuses back and test them on the machine first, and see if you can find any components in their blood......

"It doesn't have to be that much trouble."

Immortal Chuan Xuanya didn't have that patience, so he directly reached into the water tank and grabbed one and clenched it in his hand, "If there are ghost cells in its body, I'll know if I eat it!" ”

['Ghost'? The pharmacist pondered, [It's a pretty apt title......]

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue: "Hey, don't you bake it first?" This thing might have parasites! ”

But the immortal Kawa Genya had already pinched off the eight wrists and feet of the octopus and threw them at his feet, stuffed the moving head and body into his mouth, chewed it with a crunch, and swallowed it with a "coo".

"How does it taste?" Ghost Lantern Shui Yue obviously had a cold face, but she still approached curiously, "Can you eat it without dipping sauce?" ”

However, Xuan Mi just pushed him away in disgust, closed his eyelids, and silently felt the changes in his body.

After a long three seconds, Immortal Kawa Genya's eyes opened.

"Shhhh

The original white sclera of the immortal river Genya had turned a misty gray, and it was covered with red-black blood that spread like branches.

These eyes actually looked like they belonged to a corpse that had died of suffocation.

But the anomaly lasted for two or three breaths before it subsided.

"Sure enough, it's that guy!"

Immortal Kawa Genya leaned over his body like exhaustion, and wrapped his hands around his head like an delirious patient, "I can't remember that feeling!" That's his taste, I can't be mistaken! ”

Separated by a world, separated by a boundary between life and death!

The blood of Onimai Tsuji's miserable once again coiled on the taste buds of the immortal Kawa Genya.

It's only a few seconds, though!

Butterfly Shinobi's white face is almost transparent.

Even if she had expected it, but the fact that the expectation was confirmed, it still brought her a lot of shock.

After she came into this world, the first meaningful word that Yiyong said to her was "shark".

For three years, she thought that there was no news of the shark, maybe it had died in the depths of the ocean, but it still surfaced and began to affect the world.

"Why do you have that expression?"

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue watched the familiar smile disappear from Butterfly Shinobi's face, and her heart was even more nervous than when she saw her laughing: "The Land of Rain is so far away from the sea, no matter how it affects us." Besides, now that I know the characteristics of this octopus, it's a big deal to write a letter and tell Terumi how to solve it......"

"Think about it."

Muichiro stared at him and tapped his temple, "That's the sea." If ghost blood is rampant in the sea, it will definitely affect not only this octopus, but all the sea creatures around it.

"How long is the coastline of this continent? How many people live by the sea? How much seafood is shipped inland each day? And how many people have the habit of eating raw octopus or sashimi? ”

Yakushidou was the first to react: "So Miss Shinobu is worried that if the cells of the flying section will enter the body of the eater with the fish, then he will gradually accumulate in the human body after all. So by that time, it's humans who have mutated. ”

"Just like those cultists of the Tang Ninja Village back then!" Ghost Lantern Shuiyue remembered the night that gave him a great shock, "Those guys can eat people!" ”

Cannibalism and water moon have become commonplace in the fog ninja. But it was the first time he had seen a human liver and eat it, and he still had palpitations when he thought about it.

"The change in Xuanmi just now only lasted for a few seconds, which means that there are very few flying cells in the bodies of these octopuses, and they have not mutated stronger abilities."

Back then, a small piece of meat from the fourth half of the tengu could make the immortal Kawa Genya ghost for a whole night, and the flying cells in this octopus's body were estimated to be less than one-ten-thousandth of that small piece.

But once the number is stacked, the effect is still very impressive.

Butterfly Shinobu raised his head: "If we can wipe out these sea creatures at the source, we may be able to avoid the worst." Ghost Lantern Water Moon! ”

"Huh?" was suddenly named, and Shui Yue was a little overwhelmed.

"You already know what to do with this creature, do you?"

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue picked at the back of his head, and replied tentatively: "If you fish it on land and burn it to ashes, you must not let its legs and feet return to the sea intact?" ”

"That's fine." Butterfly Shinobu changed her voice, "Or gather all the octopuses and put them in a pit, and let Terumi completely destroy them at the cellular level with acid, which is the safest of all methods." ”

If you've seen Ohnogi's escape, the safest way for Butterfly Shinobi is to destroy this octopus at the molecular level.

"Wait a minute!" Ghost Lantern Shuiyue was inexplicably surprised, and asked as if verified: "What do you mean, do you want to let me go back?" ”

As long as he doesn't squat in the hospital to serve the night pot, he is willing to do anything.

Besides, catching an octopus with stealth ability sounds like a lot of fun.

"Your ability to catch fish is just right.

"In addition to you, Bai also go back together, the ice escape is used in the sea, and it can play a better effect."

This is something that Butterfly Shinobu has carefully considered.

Since they were going to interfere in the mission of the Fog Hidden Village, it was best to choose some familiar faces for them.

"Miss Xiaonan, look?"

Bai is now working in the government affairs center and is considered Xiao Nan's subordinate, so Butterfly Shinobi will ask for her consent.

"Hydrangea can do his job first." Xiao Nan nodded in agreement.

Although Xiao Nan still doesn't think that this matter will affect the Land of Rain, Bai seems to have a family on the other side of the sea, and it would be too unkind if she didn't allow it.

"Then let's decide."

Momochi is still in the land of water, and it has not been a day or two since Bai wants to go back and take a look, and Butterfly Shinobu doesn't think that the other party will refuse this proposal at all.

"Do everything you can to get rid of this creature. If necessary, you can ask the Slug Great Immortal for help. ”

"Okay, I'll go inform him now!" After the ghost lantern Shui Yue finished speaking, he was about to jump out of the window and leave.

"Not now!" Butterfly couldn't help but stop him and looked to the other side, "Muichiro, you go to him to learn Bing Dun while Bai hasn't set off yet." ”

"Wait a minute......" Xiao Nan felt a little abrupt after he spoke.

But having said all that, let's finish the words: "Miss Shinobi, do you want to ask this child to go with you?" ”

It's a land of water! Even if the reputation has improved in recent years, it is still in the blood mist.

She'd been there once with Nagato and Madara, and she had a very bad impression of the Land of Water.

Xiao Nan didn't know what Wuichiro's strength was, but he only knew that this kid didn't speak very well, and if he was sent to that place, he would definitely not get any courtesy.

"Nope." Of course, Butterfly Shinobu knew what Xiao Nan was worried about, "Ghost Lantern Mizutsuki said, those octopuses are from the country of waves. Then Muichiro and Genya, you two, go over there and investigate. ”

Which fish are problematic, and to what extent, this kind of thing can only be done by those who can use the transparent world.

Moreover, the country of waves is isolated and has poor resources, so the possibility of meeting ninjas is very small.

These two people have no experience in fighting ninjas, but their personalities are very easy to cause conflicts, so it's just right to go there.

"Okay." Genya nodded. The first time he went out of the village, because of the relationship between ghosts and blood, he was not as excited as he imagined.

However, he was quite grateful for the trust in Butterfly Ninja, so Xuan Mi secretly made up his mind to do a good job this time.

"But Bing Dun's words...... "Muichiro stretched out his foot and stepped on his wrist and foot that had been thrown to the ground, and the latter was quickly hardened by a layer of frost, "I've learned." ”

The pharmacist's pupils shrank. Although Ice Escape is a synthetic blood inheritance limit, and the owner is not rare, but you have only been in the Land of Rain for a few days? Can you actually synthesize a blood inheritance limit?

Butterfly Shinobu had already expected it, and bowed his head slightly: "In this case, you can have a good rest tonight......"

"Miss Shinobi, I have a proposal." Xiao Nan suddenly spoke.

"Please." Butterfly Shinobu was afraid that Xiao Nan would say something at this time that he shouldn't let Muichiro out.

"Why don't you give this child to me this afternoon and evening."

Xiao Nan didn't know how much courage he mustered to say this, "I think he is not only very talented in ice escape, but also in the art of the god paper master.

"Although this technique itself is not as powerful as the Blood Inheritance Limit, it is very versatile, and there are many variations that can deal with all kinds of crises.

"On the other hand, I want to see how much this kid can learn,......"

She's figured it out.

Looking at Butterfly Shinobi's abnormal state today, it is a bit inappropriate to discuss Muichiro's affairs with her.

It is better to take this opportunity, first, the church has more means to protect itself; Second, when getting along, she can also figure out the origin of this child.

Once the matter is just an oolong, it also saves yourself from opening your mouth rashly and leaving a bad impression on the butterfly ninja.

On the other side, Butterfly Shinobu was silent for nearly ten seconds.

It wasn't until Xiao Nan's nervous heartbeat was about to shake the paper flowers in her chest that she spoke: "Muichiro, you decide for yourself." ”

"Origami is fun." Muichiro didn't answer explicitly whether he wanted to or not, but the three words "very interesting" were enough to make Xiao Nan's heart bloom.

"So be it."

Butterfly Shinobu knew that nothing was more important now than the blood of the flying section on the other side of the sea.

She just begged these two people not to get along too awkwardly now, "Let's go and prepare, and tomorrow at eight o'clock, we will gather outside Yuyin Village." Yakushidou, you stay for a while. ”

Soon, everyone jumped out of the window, and when they went out, there were only two smirking geniuses left in the office.

"I decided to do a couple of experiments with flying segments."

Butterfly Shinobu sat behind her desk, and Yakushidou stood across from her.

"Please go back and look for the old information, and then rest for a while, because you might stay up all night tonight. I'm bothered if you doze off. ”

"Since it's something I'm interested in, I can't sleep just thinking about it."

The medicine man made no secret of his interest in the flying section.

"But when it comes to sleep...... I'm curious to see how Uchiha would react if he found out about today's events.

"After all, whether intentionally or not, that shark escaped from his hands."

“……”

Butterfly Shinobi's expression didn't change, but he was actually already having a headache.

Since Yi Yong accepted his emotions with his writing wheel eyes open all day long, his temperament has improved greatly.

In Muichiro's words, the last life of Yiyong looked like a lifeless ornament, but this meeting, it looks like a mimosa-like plant - it can't be said to be full of vitality, but at least it is a little more alive, and it no longer looks like a walking corpse.

If Feiduan's blood only infected the animals in the sea, then everything would be fine, and Yiyong would probably only blame himself for affecting the lives of the fishermen for a while.

But once a human becomes a monster like a cultist, or even dies, she doesn't know what will happen.

"Please go out first."

Hearing the unconcealable tiredness in the voice of the butterfly ninja, Yakushi Dou bowed slightly and left.

The butterfly sits still, but its brain spins at high speed like the propeller of an airplane.

After about five minutes, she had an idea, and the seal channeled out Kyojuro's Crow Yao.

She first briefly explained the octopus disaster in the Water Country, and then explained the purpose of her summoning it:

"Iron Country is a coastal peninsula, and it should also be a country where seafood is the main food.

"Tell Kyojuro to ask him to investigate the seafood markets in the main cities of Iron Country to see if there are any fish that are abnormally developed.

In addition, he asked him to pay attention to the recent surge in the number of people diagnosed with rabies, delirium and other mental illnesses in the area. Especially those who have money. ”

The situation in the ninja world is a bit like neon in ancient times, where many upper classes do not eat the flesh of four-legged beasts, so they replace them with delicious sashimi.

Most ordinary people, even if they eat fish, they are grilled and eaten, and in this matter, there is not such a big hidden danger.

"Yes." Raven Yo also knew the seriousness, and after making sure that he had memorized every word of Butterfly Shinobi, he asked, "Is there anything else I need to convey to Kyojuro-sama?" ”

"The Last ......"

Butterfly Shinobu thought about it for a while before deciding, "When Kyojuro finishes dealing with these things, I ask him to come back as soon as possible to guard Yuyin Village instead of me." I...... Need to go out. ”

"Yes!" About to disappear into a cloud of smoke, the butterfly stood up and slowly walked to the window to look at the sky.

Unfortunately, today, as on most days, the sun is not visible.

Because to guard against the creature named "Jue" in Xiao Nan's mouth, she and Kyojurou must have one to guard here.

Kyojuro can sense Jehoku's malice through the Nine-Tails Chakra borrowed from Naruto Uzumaki.

As for the butterfly ninja, you can learn about the strange creatures that appear in any corner at any time through the communication of the bugs.

For the past three years, it has been the Butterfly Ninja who has been guarding the Rain Hidden Village, and Kyojuro is like Helios's sun carriage, cruising around the whole ninja world to heat up.

But this time, she had to switch roles.

Business trip for about 10 days......
