"Are you leaving anyway..." Kuroko Raiga looked at his former companion, now an S-rank rebel ninja, and his already gloomy face became even gloomier.
Although the Seven Ninja Swordsmen cannot be said to be as close as brothers, they often carry out missions together and have to cooperate in various ways, so their relationship is not too bad.
Now that the Hidden Mist Village has become like this, with his companions either dead or gone, only he and Xiguashan Pufferfish Demon are left among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist Village.
However, coincidentally, Xiguashan Pufferfish Demon was the person he disliked the most among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Ninja Swordsmen. Hei Chue Raiga even thought of holding a funeral for Xiguashan Pufferfish Demon.
"I'd rather not stay in the Hidden Mist Village." Kurochu Raiga finally made up his mind to leave this country that was deteriorating and where he had lost his memories.
Unlike Biwa Juuzou, Kuroho Raiga did not make a final effort to persuade the Fourth Mizukage before leaving.
He never went to the Fourth Mizukage to give him advice once, because he knew he couldn't speak.
Since so many eloquent high-ranking officials were unable to convince the Fourth Mizukage, what use would it be for him, a person who can't speak, to go there
Therefore, Kurochu Raiga had no intention of looking for the Fourth Hokage, as he thought it was a futile effort.
Hei Chu Lei Ya took the money he earned from completing the mission, put it into the scroll, then put Lei Dao Ya on his back and walked towards the village entrance.
Although the Raito Ya is not his personal property to be exact, it was given to him by the village and will be passed on to the next generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen in the future.
But Hei Chu Lei Ya is too lazy to care about so many things now. He is about to betray the village and doesn't care about this extra debt.
As a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, he knew many secrets of the Hidden Mist Village. So even if he did not do anything to harm the Hidden Mist Village and just defected, he would be listed as the highest-level traitor and the Anbu would be sent to hunt him down.
Kuroko Raiga walked to the gate of the Hidden Mist Village, and the two Chunins at the gate stopped Kuroko Raiga as usual.
"Lord Raiga, please show us your village certificate." One of the Chunins said quickly.
"I'm sorry, Lord Raiga, this is the rule set by the Yondaime. Sorry for the trouble."
Although Kuroko Raiga was not a real high-ranking official, he was already a very important figure for the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Ninja, so the Chunin quickly added that he did not want to be hated by Kuroko Raiga for this.
"Haha, get out of the way. I don't want things to become troublesome, and I don't want to hold a funeral now." Hei Chu Lei Ya sneered.
"Sir, do you want to violate the rules of the Yondaime? No, you can just apply directly. If there is a mission, you can just give the mission scroll directly." The Chunin said quickly.
Seeing that Kurochi Raiga's face was becoming more and more gloomy, another Chunin quickly pulled his companion and said quickly:
"Master Lei Ya, I'm sorry, he is new here and doesn't know the rules. You can leave now."
After saying that, the Chunin quickly pulled his companion aside.
Kurochu Raiya's expression then became much better. He stopped the hand that was originally reaching for his back and quickly walked towards the port of the Water Country to prevent any accidents.
"Have you forgotten about Biwa Juzo? You forgot about it after you just got beaten?" Another Chunin frowned and scolded his companion.
Even if you want to die, don't hold him back. With the experience with Biwa Juzo, he can clearly see that this guy is also preparing to defect.
Forget about bringing up the Fourth Mizukage, it would be useless even if you brought up the First Mizukage.
You can seek death, but don't drag him along with you.
He didn't think Hei Chu Lei Ya would show mercy, so he would definitely kill them all together.
"But if we let him go like this, we will definitely be blamed by the Yondaime." The companion who was being taught a lesson retorted somewhat unconvinced.
"The Fourth Hokage will blame us later. If he hadn't let us go, we might have died just now." Another Chunin said bluntly.
"..." The companion who was taught a lesson didn't know how to refute for a moment. It seemed that it was indeed true. It was definitely unrealistic to expect the other party to show mercy after betraying the ninja.
"Alas, the situation in the village is getting worse and worse. In addition to Biwa Juzo before, two members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen have already left. I really don't know what the Fourth Hokage was thinking when he issued such a policy." The companion who was taught a lesson sighed and said a little dejectedly.
Only those who were guarding the gate knew what a terrible situation Kirigakure was in now.
If only two members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen had left, he wouldn't have sighed like this.
However, even two of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen who held special status in the village were gone, so one can imagine the situation of ordinary ninjas.
Many Kirigakure ninjas chose to leave after their protests failed, but some succeeded and some failed.
Those who rushed forward would become traitors and wander the ninja world, while the losers would face extremely harsh punishments.
The other Chunin saw his companion suddenly blurt out something unacceptable and quickly covered his mouth, then said in a low voice:
"No matter what the Fourth Hokage is like, it's not something you and I can discuss. Be careful with your words and actions. Otherwise, with your personality, I'm afraid you won't live long."
You know, in the ninja world, the saying "walls have ears" is not just talk.
Given the current situation in the Hidden Mist Village, there might be an Anbu somewhere recording their words.
Although he also felt that the current Mist Village was terrible and the actions of the Fourth Hokage were confusing, for the sake of his own life, he never expressed any opinions.
He was just a Chunin who was guarding the gate. His words carried no weight and it was useless for him to express his opinions. It would only bring him unnecessary trouble.
"Think about your family and don't be too impulsive."
The taught-a-teach Chunin was silent for a moment, didn't say much, just said thank you, then went back to work, continuing to guard the gate of the Hidden Mist Village.
No matter what happens in the Hidden Mist Village, life must go on. I can just curse it in my heart later.
Just as the two Chunins of the Hidden Mist Village were secretly cursing the Fourth Hokage's mysterious policies in their hearts, Obito, the instigator, was preparing his bloodline completion plan.
The agreement between him and Hirudo was that he would help Hirudo capture two bloodline ninjas first, and Hirudo would pass on the Kidome no Kisara technique to Obito, and then Obito would help him capture the remaining three.
Obito had already sent a Soul Release Ninja to help Hiruko, so as long as he sent one more Bloodline Ninja over, he could start completing the Bloodline directly.
So Obito wanted to make preparations in advance and prepare the ninjas needed to complete the bloodline.
He has not been idle these days, and has been studying the information about the ruins.
Obito now knows the real name of the Six Paths Sage's mother, which is Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.
The real name of the Sage of Six Paths is Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo.
There is no doubt that the Hyuga, Senju, Uchiha, and Uzumaki are all branches of the Otsutsuki clan, and each has inherited a part of the Otsutsuki clan's power.
In addition, Obito also found a ninja clan that was suspected to be related to Otsutsuki or Kaguya.
There is a powerful ninja clan in the Land of Water, called the Kaguya clan. This clan has a bloodline limit, the Shikotsuki clan, that can control bones, and is extremely powerful.
However, for unknown reasons, this family all have a difficult-to-cure blood disease that can only be suppressed by the family's secret medicine but cannot be cured. The stronger the disease, the easier it is to get.
Obito had once seen Kaguya's moves in a mural in the ruins. One of the murals looked like bones extending from Kaguya's body.
So Obito was wondering whether the Kaguya clan was also related to the Otsutsuki clan.
The Hyuga clan is now under his misfortune, with some dead and some injured, and is almost destroyed. If we want to capture someone, we must catch a more talented one as soon as possible.
However, he had some concerns about the bloodline disease of the Kaguya clan.
But don't tarnish his perfect bloodline, otherwise you will lose a lot.
"Hehe, Obito, why don't you fuse the Uzumaki clan and the Hyuga clan first? If there are still defects by then, you can fuse the ninjas from the Kaguya clan." Zetsu next to him said with a grin.
He felt that Obito was really slow. If Madara were here, he would probably immediately get two bloodline ninjas in place and then obtain the Kidome no Kisara technique.
Then quickly gather the necessary ninjas and start replenishing their bloodline.
"That's fine, let's capture him and lock him up first." Obito nodded, then asked, "Any news about the red-haired Uzumaki clan?"
Since he wanted to complete the bloodline, Obito felt that he had to obtain the purest and most perfect bloodline.
For example, when his Sharingan is opened, it has two magatama, and when it is opened again, it starts with Mangekyō, and its ability is still powerful space-related.
The Senju part of his body also comes from the cells of the Ninja God Senju Hashirama, and is definitely the best among the Senju clan.
Since the destruction of their country, the Uzumaki clan has been scattered throughout the ninja world and interacting with outsiders.
The bloodlines of many Uzumaki are no longer pure, and even the iconic red hair of Uzumaki is gone.
Yes, Obito believes that only red-haired Uzumaki can show the purity of bloodline.
In fact, there are originally two Konoha, but Konoha is too dangerous. Obito doesn't dare to go to Konoha before completing his bloodline completion.
So Obito could only look to the vast ninja world.
"Don't you know my intelligence gathering ability? Of course I found it." Jueguai laughed.
"In a small country called the Land of the Sea, her name is Hinokana. She may not have the last name Uzumaki because she was afraid of getting in trouble. However, her parents were both ninjas from the Uzumaki clan. It's a pity that they are both dead. Otherwise, you could have obtained three ninjas from the Uzumaki clan at once."
"She is still too naive. Even if her last name is not Uzumaki, her eye-catching red hair and excellent sealing technique have already exposed her identity."
"The Sea Country? I didn't expect that after searching for so long, we actually found it near the Water Country." Hearing Zetsu's words, Obito nodded slightly.
The reason why he could tolerate Zetsu, the surveillance officer from Madara, and his weird temper was because of Zetsu's powerful intelligence gathering ability.
The Kingdom of the Sea is a small country to the south of the Kingdom of Water. It has a small land area and is composed of archipelagos. The population in the country is also very small, not exceeding one million.
Since there are no ninja villages in the country and its military strength is weak, its presence in the ninja world is very low. Even when faced with an invasion, it can only hire ninjas from the Water Country.
If it weren't for Zetsu, it would be difficult for Obito to notice such a small country with such a weak presence.
After all, there are too many small countries in the ninja world, and only small countries like the Rain Country, the Grass Country, and the Taki Country that still have some combat power can catch his eye.
A country that doesn't even have a ninja village will be slaughtered once a war breaks out.
A country with a ninja village is still a power, no matter how weak it is.
"And while searching for the Uzumaki clan members, I found an interesting piece of information that may be helpful to our future actions." Zetsu handed a stack of information to Obito.
Obito's eyes flashed with curiosity. What could be the thing that would help them in their future actions
Obito opened the information out of curiosity.
"The Ultimate Summoning Beast Project..."
Obito had the Mangekyō Sharingan, which had extremely strong observation abilities. He read very quickly and finished reading the information in no time.
"Interesting. Although it's weak, it's not without its merits. It's somewhat similar to the Kiss of Demonic Buds." Obito commented.
The information just now is a secret research being conducted by the Sea Kingdom.
Although the country is weak, the Sea Kingdom is unwilling to accept this. They don't want to wait until war comes and then have to hire ninjas from other countries to protect themselves and leave the fate of their country to others.
However, it is unrealistic to establish a ninja village. The Sea Kingdom does not have qualified ninjas, and it would be difficult to support it even if it was established. After all, the country is too small and cannot afford it financially.
The Sea Kingdom has a rather special island with many psychic beasts.
However, those summoned beasts are relatively ordinary and not very powerful, so it is impossible to rely on them to resist invaders.
So the people of the Sea Kingdom came up with an idea. Although the summoned beasts on that island were not very powerful, they were numerous. If they could develop an ultimate summoned beast that could combine the abilities of all summoned beasts, then they should be able to protect the Sea Kingdom.
Therefore, the Sea Kingdom took a summoning beast with the ability to devour as a basis and continued to conduct research, hoping to develop the ultimate summoning beast that can possess the abilities of all summoning beasts.
According to the information, the Sea Kingdom has now achieved results and has developed summoning beasts that can devour other summoning beasts to gain their abilities.
However, the people of the Sea Kingdom encountered another bottleneck. They didn't know if it was because too many messy genes were added, but the psychic beasts could not communicate normally like ordinary psychic beasts. They were very violent and would attack all living things in front of them.
The people of the Sea Kingdom had no choice but to seal the Ultimate Summoning Beast first, and then continue to study ways to make the Ultimate Summoning Beast have rationality.
What they wanted was a guardian beast for the country rather than a ferocious spiritual beast that only knew how to kill.
Hinokana was the person who was hired to seal the ultimate summoning beast.
"If there really is a power that can devour all summoned beasts and gain their abilities, it should be useful. It would be a pleasant surprise."
"Let's go. First, capture the Uzumaki clan's ninjas, and then go to Kumogakure to capture the Storm Release ninjas that Hiruko needs."
The Sharingan in Obito's eyes spun rapidly, and the space twisted, sucking Obito and Zetsu in.
