Chapter 116: Conspiracy
Descending earth told the truth nine out of ten, but concealed some important ones.
Although the ninja chakra and the nine-tailed chakra belong to the same type of energy, they are different in nature.
The Nine Tailed Beasts are only a part of the Sacred Tree, and they are not complete.
Descending to the earth said so much, probably with the purpose of letting Gu Shanbu Shui collect tailed beasts and steal the secret ninjutsu and blood inheritance limit, in fact, he was bullying the Gu Shan's understanding of ninjas and ninjutsu was not so deep.
This leader of the guardian ninja who died once on the surface saw Gu Shanbushui's ambitions, but he didn't understand that the object of his instigation was more than he knew.
"Eternal life? I'm also a little tempted, but ...... Can't afford it, and it's not what you think. ”
The sarcastic words came out of Gu Shanbushui's mouth, and the eyes that saw the earth leave turned to the air in front of them, and on the retina, a woman dressed with long white hair was reflected.
"What do you think?"
"It is the instinct of all living beings to want to live longer, but it is better to die just to live."
If the big barrel wood is Kaguya, the ancient cedar water thinks so.
Greed is an indispensable motivation for human beings to become the primate of all things.
"Intelligent beings need 'pastime' beyond instinct to embellish the rest of their lives, otherwise, it will be too boring."
The second major governor of Gushan has long figured out this truth,
"What do you want, an immortal alien known as the 'Goddess of Mao'? In addition to finding a suitable planet to plant a sacred tree, and scavenging chakras for yourself to become stronger, you don't have any other hobbies? ”
"No comment."
The solemn goddess of Mao didn't seem to be willing to discuss this with Gu Shanbushui.
"Well, we're not familiar enough to be unguarded, if you don't tell us, I won't ask. Any ideas, as long as it doesn't bother, I try my best to help. ”
"That's nice, I want it now, do you have a way?"
"I can't do anything to help you get out of trouble, and besides, haven't you already arranged it, and you don't need me to be nosy?"
"You do. Although your current strength is useless, it does not mean that you will not be able to do anything in the future. I thought you were going to make a fool of yourself in order to save the world, and then wipe out the Great Demon King of the World in one fell swoop. ”
"The sky is falling, naturally there are tall people who stand up first, I'm a gentleman with limited ability, so don't be nosy."
Gu Shanbushui, who shrugged his shoulders, responded nonchalantly,
"Don't talk about that, my chakra volume has increased greatly recently, and I'm about to meet the requirements soon, right?"
"Almost, in half a year, I will teach you how to use the Haifang Master to make your strength go to the next level."
"That's good."
Gu Shanbushui said happily, and his right hand unconsciously touched the Grim Reaper mask in the ninja bag.
I've been getting this thing for a while, and I haven't used it.
Death or something, Gu Shanbu Shui didn't take it to heart, with the Grim Reaper mask, and the combination of the forbidden technique and ghoul sealing obtained from the "extortion" of Konoha Village, there are some secret techniques that are difficult to achieve, and it is also of some practical significance.
……
Konoha Village, in the lush forest in the north, one by one, vigorous figures, shuttling through the forest, they are wearing Konoha Village ninja vests, wearing various masks, and while approaching quickly, they do not forget to let go of their perception and probe the abnormal movements around them.
Soon after, seven or eight figures stayed on the side of a wide river, surrounded by towering trees, and in late spring and early summer, when the sun was shining and the birds were singing, the sunlight spilled through the gaps between the green leaves of the canopy and sprinkled on the forest path, and the rickety spots of light swayed in the wind, and the grass on the ground grew tenaciously, covering the bushes, and doing everything in their power to snatch what little light was left.
After a while, the Konoha ninja led by the seal of his hands, refined the chakra, and gathered it into the eye socket.
"Roll your eyes, open."
In an instant, the wind and grass within a radius of one kilometer were all within the scope of its monitoring.
After a long time, I glanced at it several times, but found nothing.
The birds nesting in the canopy, the ants under the trees, the fish swimming in the water, nothing is wrong.
"How's that...... Any clues? ”
"Nope."
"No, it stands to reason that it should be in this direction, there are people in other places, and there are flaws left here on purpose, waiting for others to ......"
Laying a trap is indeed quite an effective means of defense.
During this time, there were more and more suspicious people near Konoha Village, and it was not once or twice that they invaded Konoha Village and triggered the enchantment alarm.
When the high-level of Konoha Village and the Uchiha family are in trouble, if there is a foreign enemy who wants to fish in troubled waters, it is undoubtedly a godsend.
Since there are flaws that should not be there, it is no wonder that some people covet them.
The Konoha ninjas, who had been prepared for a long time, stepped up their patrols, and it was true that they couldn't catch some small thieves who didn't have long eyes, but none of the really valuable ones were caught.
Even so, the experienced Konoha Village still found some clues, confirming that near Konoha Village, there was a very hidden suspicious organization that barely showed its head.
"Keep going."
The gossipy members of the dark department, after the plan had been decided, quickly headed northwest.
Ten minutes later, the team went and returned, only to be disappointed again.
After another half an hour, the cautious dark department came to this "feng shui treasure land" again.
"Is it really calm, or has it run away?"
To be cautious, this team of ninjas is already quite good, but unfortunately no infiltrators have been found.
"I guess it's the latter. Although the scenery here is good, it can't hide people. ”
A few people simply set up camp, caught a few hares, roasted them on the fire, and after filling their stomachs, they set out on the road again.
Soon after, in a sticky still water at the bottom of the river, a large fish that had been lurking motionless, struggling to shake off the mud on the surface of the body, gently flicking its tail, controlling the direction, and going down the river.
After drifting from day to night, passing through the water system of the Land of Fire, these big fish sped up and walked away from the mouth of the sea.
A half-human, half-fish monster walked out of the river where a few big fish were hiding before, turned into a purple-haired fishing fire after coming ashore, and then cautiously went to the manor outside Konoha Village, which belonged to the ancient Shanbu water.
Its eyes flashed with a shimmer of red, slightly conspicuous in the dark forest.
It is this little-known blood inheritance boundary-red eyes, sheltering a group of merfolk who almost revealed their identities, and not being discovered is the best result.
In the middle of the moon, Gu Shanbu finally waited for the fishing fire that came to report.
"Young master, fortunately, I don't disgrace my life."
"Thank you for your hard work."
"Fortunately, my physical strength and chakra can keep up, but my eyes are a little sore, and I have a headache......"
"As a result of overuse of your eyes, rest more, and it will get better soon."
It is also a children's art, because the effect is too single, and the potential is far inferior to the writing wheel eye and white eye, so that when it is opened, the consumption is minimal.
Of course, red-eye also has its own advantages, and there is no better fit when it comes to deceiving white-eye.
"The patrols of the Konoha Shadow Department and the 'Root' organization have become more and more intensive, reducing the frequency of mermaids going ashore and asking for information. Konoha ninjas are not stupid and sooner or later they will realize where there are holes in their defenses. ”
With such a high degree of greenery in the Land of Fire, rivers and lakes of all sizes spread over the entire country, water warfare is a military means that cannot be ignored.
The infiltration of the enemy from under the water is nothing new at all.
The only loophole in the thinking is that the Konoha ninja didn't realize that the river affected the effects of canine psychic beasts, parasites, and traditional tracking techniques.
There are fishing fires in series from time to time, as long as they are not caught red-handed, with the help of the extensive water network, the chance of the mermaid hiding under the water is close to zero.
The two of them talked about some more things about intelligence, and then Yuhuo was sent away by Gu Shanbushui.
Soon after, after finishing his official business, Gu Shanbushui came to the place where the secretary was working, and saw Togakure Sunrise working hard and busy.
"Young Master, why are you here?"
"Just take a look, you don't have to go to class today, the elite teachers of the Konoha Village Ninja School are so idle?"
"Rotational rest. Last month, I substituted for Mr. Mizuki and Mr. Yin Luka a few times, but this time I took a break. ”
"Mizuki?"
"What, what's wrong with him?"
Togakushi Sunrise said rather unexpectedly,
"This Mizuki, his strength is very average, his mind is spent on the drill camp and clinging to power, and he wanted to be close to me last year, but he was too busy at the time and didn't pay much attention to him. In contrast, his friend Umino Yinruka, although his qualifications are worse, he has a good heart and is more suitable to be a teacher in a ninja school. ”
"Why did they ask you to substitute for you?"
"Yin Luka is ill, and Mizuki is injured in the field mission and has been recuperating for several days."
"When?"
Gu Shanbu Shui asked,
"Yin Luka, forget it, I want to know about Mizuki."
"Shortly after the Uchiha Shisui died."
Coincidental?
Gu Shanbushui instantly thought of some "insignificant" small plots.
I'm afraid that at that time, it will be the time when Orochimaru returns to the village.
Why did Gu Shanbu Shui take the risk of letting the mermaids attack, and even probe for a long time to follow the clues, in order to find Orochimaru's hiding place.
It's a pity that Orochimaru, who is the "Three Ninjas", is too cautious and doesn't show any traces at all.
With conventional means, it is impossible to find out the news of Orochimaru, and you have to think about extraordinary means.
"Find an opportunity to connect with Shimura Danzo, maybe there is a possibility of cooperation between us."
Of course, it will definitely not be possible now, there is a big snake pill as a help, and the Uchiha family is about to be leveled internally, and the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye of the Uchiha water stop has been harvested, and the strongest illusion is in the hands of the gods, if it goes well, and the fusion of the first generation of cells is successful, then, in the heart of Shimura Danzo, the conditions for dominating the ninja world are about to be gathered.
Just as the master and servant were talking, dozens of kilometers away in the Hokage House of Konoha Village, Sarutobi Hichicho frowned and looked through the information in his hand, and smoked the pipe in his mouth one after another, showing how unpeaceful his heart was.
After a long time, the Hokage Miyome, who put down the documents in his hand, looked uneasy and ordered the dark department to notify Shimura Danzo to come to discuss the matter.
Soon, the old Shimura group was hidden.
"Three generations, do you have something to do with me?"
Ape Fei Ri nodded in response, and then went straight to the point,
"You know what is going on inside the Uchiha family?"
"Hmm. Some of the deaths due to accidents were overreported, and others ...... Wait, what do you mean......"
"They're preparing for a disaster, setting aside the worst-case scenario."
"In other words, no matter what, we won't be tied down. Even, be prepared to strike first. ”
Sarutobi didn't answer directly, but asked very directly:
"Can we guarantee that nothing goes wrong? If there is no Uchiha in Konoha Village, it will be a very serious incident. ”
The two parties who once worked together to establish Konoha Village, the Thousand Hands Family has been completely integrated into Konoha Village, and if the Uchiha Family is also destroyed.
"We can't afford to bear the stigma of slaughtering our compatriots, and if we make a mistake, the results will be unimaginable."
The Uchiha family could have been wiped out, but they hadn't started a rebellion yet, and they weren't even ready for an imminent uprising.
Until tangible evidence is found, it will be difficult for Konoha Village to attack directly.
At this time, a scapegoat is needed to carry all the infamy. Even, you have to complete the task unnoticed, and it's best not to resist at all.
"Uchiha Itachi has made up his mind, but there are still expectations for his father."
In many cases, after the two sides have laid out the carriage and horses, there is no way out.
The First World War in the previous life, that's it. Neither the Entente nor the Allies actually thought of a lose-lose showdown, but in the bluff and the intimidation of you coming and going, they gradually couldn't get off the stage. Even if you don't want to fight, it's hard to ride a tiger, and the last small spark has caused a monstrous disaster.
Now that the top leaders of Konoha Village and the Uchiha family are like this, the cause is no longer important, and the two sides continue to bet heavily, and it is impossible to turn back.
"What's going on with Uchiha Fugaku? Recently, his attitude has become more and more tough, and he does not hesitate to fight, which is a bit inconsistent with the measures taken in previous years, is there anyone behind him? ”
Speaking of this, the cold light in Shimura Danzo's eyes flashed,
"If there is really a betrayal, even if it is a desperate defeat for both, we must destroy them at all costs."
After taking a few puffs of his pipe, Ape Fei Ri slashed and smoked a few pipes, and calmly proposed:
"Do you want to slow down, look at the situation, the peace initiative sent by the new daimyo has not yet been responded, there must be an attitude, mediate the conflict or something, don't expect it, both sides take a step back first, find out the hole cards and then say, otherwise, the risk is too great."
It's not that Sarutobi is slashing, and being able to make up his mind to exterminate the Uchiha family is definitely not a soft-hearted person, but the current wind direction seems to be a little wrong.
Not only the Uchiha family, but also the actions of the "root" organization and Shimura Danzo are also a bit mysterious, if nothing else, the old partner for many years is planning something in private.
