Accompanied by the sound of breaking wind, more than a dozen black shadows shuttled through the forest at a speed as fast as ghosts.
After the dozens of black shadows had gone away, a figure jumped down from the lush tree canopy and landed on the ground silently.
This figure was wearing a gorgeous cloak with gold-edged black background and a mask with a flame pattern on his face. It was the Itachi who had received the message from Shisui Ninja.
Looking at the direction where the dozen or so black shadows left, under the mask, Itachi looked a little puzzled.
The previous black shadows were all dressed in Konoha Anbe's clothes, and this is where Itachi was puzzled. Although he hadn't joined Anbe yet, he already understood some of Anbe's rules from Shisui.
Under normal circumstances, the Anbu performs tasks in teams of four. When there is a shortage of manpower, the four-person teams will be divided into two to perform tasks in groups of two.
Therefore, it is very rare for more than a dozen Anbu to gather together to perform tasks.
Especially after experiencing several attacks by the Akatsuki organization, Konoha's Anbu suffered heavy losses and was seriously short of manpower, so it was even more unusual for more than a dozen Anbu to go out of the village to perform tasks together.
"Could it be a task related to the Akatsuki organization?"
With a sullen face, Itachi thought to himself.
Neither Hyuga Kyou nor Shisui revealed much to Itachi about the raid on the Akatsuki organization, but because he also participated in the operation against Shennong, Itachi guessed a little bit.
Just as Itachi was thinking, a figure descended from the sky and landed in front of him.
The visitor was also wearing a cloak with a black background and a golden pattern, but the mask on his face was a pattern of a gust of wind.
Itachi was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I'm Uchiha Itachi, what's your name, senior?"
Itachi was actually a little surprised. He thought that the person meeting him here would be the familiar Homura Uchiha, but he never thought that the person who came to meet him was a strange member of the God Organization.
The puppet of the Three Generations of Wind and Shadow replied coldly: "You can call me 'Feng'!"
Itachi nodded, and asked again: "Senior Feng, are we the only two gathering this time?"
The puppet of the Three Generations of Fengyingren replied without any emotional fluctuations: "Yes, let's go!"
After all, the puppet of the three generations of wind and shadow people spread out its wings made of iron sand, and flew into the sky with Itachi.
...
same moment.
In the southern part of the Fire Country, a group of four people dressed as Kirigakure ninjas were galloping towards Yuyin Village.
The leader is an obese ninja with ninja sama muscles on his back. He is the watermelon mountain puffer ghost who is the leader of the seven kirigakure ninja swords at the moment.
swish swish swish...
After a few people quickly crossed a mountain stream, Kisame Kisame asked casually: "Why did Mizukage-sama suddenly issue such an order? This is too unreasonable!"
Riki Yutaka, who was at the end of the team, also raised his doubts at the right time: "If we execute such an order, I'm afraid it will start a war? With the current situation of the village, we don't have much chance of winning!"
If you don't cut it again, your eyes will flicker: "Mizukage-sama seems to be a little bit wrong recently."
As soon as Buzhan finished speaking, the team leader, Xiguashan puffer ghost, snorted coldly: "Shut up, questioning Mizukage-sama's orders is a capital offense!"
Under the reprimand of the captain Xiguashan puffer ghost, the team regained its tranquility, but under the quiet appearance, several people in the team had their own thoughts.
Since participating in the Five Kage Conference last time, the Fourth Mizukage Yakura, who was originally committed to reforming Kirigakure, has become reclusive and rarely shows up in public.
Not only that, the Fourth Mizukage also became indifferent to the reform progress of the village in all aspects, and instead increased the punishment of the ninjas in the village. In just a few months, several Kirigakure jonin who questioned his order were executed successively.
The changes of the fourth Mizukage were seen by the entire Kirigakure, but under the suppression of the fourth Mizukage with an iron fist, no one dared to stand up and question it publicly. As time passed, Kirigakure became depressed again.
And under this twilight, undercurrents are also quietly forming!
...
In the Land of Fire, the meeting place of the Three Shadows.
As more and more elite ninjas gathered, the cave where the Three Shadows were meeting was already full of people. The total number of people had exceeded one hundred.
In the cave, Lei Ying urged: "We can't wait any longer!"
Although he knew that there were still many people on the way, but because Erwei Jinzhuli Yumu was trapped in Yuyin Village, and his life and death were unknown, in order to rescue Yumu as soon as possible, Lei Ying couldn't care less.
Considering the failure of the reconnaissance operation, the Akatsuki organization has already learned of the raid of the three major ninja villages, and the third generation also knows that the later the time is delayed, the more unfavorable the raid will be, so he said: "Okay, let's go now!"
Feng Ying nodded expressionlessly.
The strength of Akatsuki's organization was beyond his expectation, coupled with the failure of the investigation operation, he was not optimistic about this raid, but until now, he could only bite the bullet.
After the three shadows reached a consensus, they left a few people behind to meet the reinforcements on their way, while the others formed a surprise brigade and rushed towards Yuyin Village.
The Anbe Eleventh Squad, where Hyuga Kyou belonged, was naturally included in the raid brigade, and because of his white eyes, the eleventh squad where Hyuga Kage belonged was still at the forefront of the entire raid brigade, responsible for opening the way for the raid brigade.
The Land of Fire borders the Land of Rain, and the location of the Three Shadows meeting is not far from the border, so it didn't take long for the raiding team to break into the Land of Rain.
patter...
As soon as they stepped into the Land of Rain, the sky became gloomy. Raindrops dripped loosely from the air and landed on the faces and bodies of everyone in the raiding brigade, but no one stopped to put on their raincoats. Everyone looked sternly in the direction of Hidden Rain Village, because everyone knew that the battle that was about to break out would be a terrifying battle no less than the third Ninja World War.
After invading the outskirts of Yuyin Village without any obstacles, the Third Hokage said to Raikage and Kazekage beside him: "Everyone, follow the plan!"
Lei Ying and Feng Ying nodded together, and immediately led their subordinates, broke away from the raiding brigade, and galloped towards the two sides.
Unlike samurai, ninjas gather in large numbers and cannot effectively improve combat effectiveness. On the contrary, they will cause unnecessary accidental injuries due to large-scale ninjutsu.
In addition, this raid is to completely wipe out the Xiao organization, so the scattered encirclement and the raid from three directions together can ensure that no one will slip through the net.
Hyuga Kage also raised objections to this deployment, but was rejected by Sankage.
Obviously, even the more experienced and conservative Hokage of the Three Kages, there is still a big deviation in the evaluation of Payne's strength. After all, after the first generation and Uchiha Madara, there have been decades in the ninja world, and there has never been a super strong man like Payne who has a strength that is actually above the Kage class.
After the raid brigade was divided into three, Konoha stopped temporarily in order to wait for Yun Yin and Sand Yin to take their positions.
At this time, the Third Hokage recruited the four members of Class 11 to his side, and ordered: "Taking advantage of this gap before launching a full-scale raid, your Class 11 will sneak into Yuyin Village first, and meet Ziraiya!"
As for why Jiraiya chose to stay in Yuyin Village alone, Sandai knew it well, because Jiraiya had already told Sandai Hokage privately about him taking him in Yuyin Village and guiding Nagato, and showed his determination to persuade Nagato to turn back, so Sandai suspected that Jiraiya stayed in Yuyin Village just to find an opportunity to persuade Nagato.
For Jiraiya's choice, Sandai neither agreed nor opposed.
He disagreed because he was worried about Jiraiya's safety. If the leader of Akatsuki really cared about his master Jiraiya, he shouldn't have repeatedly attacked Konoha.
He didn't object because he also hoped that Jiraiya could persuade Nagato to take down the Akatsuki organization without bloodshed, and once Konoha subdued Nagato, who has the eyes of reincarnation, then the other major ninja villages would never dare to provoke Konoha again.
"yes!"
Kakashi didn't know the entanglement in the third generation's heart, he responded, and then led the eleventh squad to set off.
Because Yumuren is trapped in Yuyin Village, he will definitely be tortured by the human Taoist Payne, and the human way can directly extract the target's soul to obtain information, so no matter how resolute and unyielding Yumuren is, it is difficult to keep a secret. Therefore, Hyuga mirror did not choose the waterway he sneaked into last time this time, but chose another one.
Fortunately, the water network under Yuyin Village is densely covered, like a maze, so Class 11, led by the white-eyed Hyuga Kyou, sneaked into Yuyin Village without any risk.
When he came to the sewer, Hyuga Kyou told his companions: "Don't get caught in the rain. The rain in this village is actually a kind of perceptual ninjutsu. In addition, there should be some other perceptual means in this village. How Yumuren was discovered last time has not yet been clarified, so everyone should be extra careful. If you are exposed in this ghost place, you may die."
"Um!"
Kakashi and the others nodded.
Then, Hyuga Kyou took out the layout of Yuyin Village drawn during the last infiltration, and the specific location of the tower where Payne is located, pointed to the tower, and said: "I suspect that the leader of the Akatsuki organization is hiding in this tower, so Jiraiya-sama is probably hiding near this tower."
Kai glanced at the map drawn by Hyuga Kyou, frowned and said, "It's all high-rise buildings, and the area is so large. It's just us, how can we find it?"
After pondering for a while, Kakashi replied: "We can only act separately. We must find Jiraiya-sama before the raid is officially launched."
Shisui took out the timer, glanced at it, and said, "If there is no accident, the raid will be launched from three directions in fifteen minutes. In such a short time, it will be difficult for us to find Mr. Jiraiya."
Kakashi said: "Time is running out, we can only do our best!"
Finding Jiraiya is a death order issued by the third generation, and the eleventh class must implement it, so Kakashi and Kai left the sewer soon.
At this moment, Shisui asked Hyuga Kyou, "Senior, what should we do?"
"wait!"
Only one word came out of Hyuga Kyou's mouth.
Hyuga Kyou is not only waiting for the official launch of the raid, but also waiting for Shinichi's communication. According to the previous discussion, Shinichi should have passed on the response deployment of the Akatsuki organization through Zhaocai Pill.
But Hyuga Kyou has been waiting until now, and the news of Shinichi has not come.
There are only two possibilities for this situation, either Shinichi was exposed, or Shinichi was always accompanied by other members of the Akatsuki organization, making him unable to find a chance to summon him.
Zhishui glanced at the timer again, and asked, "Shouldn't we go to Master Zilaiye?"
"Don't worry!" After a pause, Hyuga Kyou said while sitting on the ground, "Among the three ninjas, if you really have to fight to the death, Master Jiraiya is actually stronger than the other two, so even if it is the leader of the Akatsuki organization, it will take some effort to kill Master Jiraiya."
Seeing Hyuga Kyou sitting down, Shisui asked tentatively, "Are you waiting for news from Shinichi?"
After the last attack on Shennong, although Shisui still didn't know that Shinichi was a spy placed by Hyuga Kyou in Akatsuki's organization, he knew that Shinichi had a connection with Hyuga Kage. At this time, he saw Hyuga Kage sitting on the ground, as if waiting for something, so he immediately thought of Shinichi.
Hyuga Kyou didn't hide it from Shisui: "Yeah."
Shisui was a little worried: "Does Shinichi know about our actions this time? He is now a member of the Akatsuki organization. If he meets someone from Yun Yin or Sand Yin, it will be troublesome."
Hyuga Kyou didn't talk about Shinichi, but said calmly: "No one is absolutely safe in this operation, even I may die here, so you have to be mentally prepared and don't bring 'Bie Tianjin' into the tomb."
Zhishui also sat down, and said in a deep voice, "I've already made up my mind."
Hyuga Kyou continued: "The member of Akatsuki who attacked Naruto last time may be the culprit who plotted against the Fourth Hokage and caused the 'Nine-Tails Rebellion'. The other party probably also has a kaleidoscope Sharingan, and his pupil power may even be higher than yours. Your 'Bietenjin' may not be able to subdue him easily, so even if you use 'Bietenjin', you must remain vigilant enough."
Zhishui quickly said: "Are you worried that the other party will be immune to my 'other gods'?"
"I was worried that he would be immune to your 'Bietenshin', but deliberately pretended to be controlled by your 'Bietenshin'." After a pause, Hyuga Kyou said with a smile: "In the ninja world, my acting skills may not be the best."
At the beginning, Hyuga Kyou pretended to be controlled by illusion, easily plotted against Shinichi, and won the contest, but Shisui was too confident in his illusion, and was plotted by Danzo in the original space and time, and lost a kaleidoscope Sharingan, so Hyuga Kage worried that he would stumble in this regard.
And if Shisui stumbles this time, Hyuga Kyou may not be able to rescue him in time.
If Shisui's kaleidoscope sharing eyes containing "Bietenshin" fall into the hands of Akatsuki, with Obito's special physique fused with the first-generation cells, it may be possible to frequently activate "Bietenshin" and completely disrupt the order of the ninja world.
boom...
Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the distance, and the sewer also trembled.
Zhishui quickly looked at the timer, and said doubtfully, "No, it's not time for the surprise attack yet!"
Hyuga Kyou said calmly, "That's right. How could the Akatsuki organization obediently wait for us to launch a surprise attack? When the investigation fails, there will be no surprise attack."
Zhishui stood up and asked, "Senior, what should we do?"
Hyuga Kyou still sat there: "Wait, we have only one target, and that is the leader of the Akatsuki organization!"
Soon, there were explosions from all directions.
Pointing to Zhishui on the ground for a while, he frowned and said, "All the explosions seem to be outside Yuyin Village, and our people seem to have been intercepted outside Yuyin Village."
Hyuga Kyou said lightly: "The battle broke out."
