"Huh? Wait, this kid is..." The captain looked at Zhixue, who was wearing a robe of the Akatsuki organization and staring at him with big eyes. He rubbed his eyes, and then said in surprise: "It turns out he helped us last time. Dealing with Kong Ninja’s little sister, I really didn’t expect to meet two acquaintances at once today.”

"Kong Nin? Familiar?" Loquat Juuzang also looked in Zhixue's direction in surprise. Did you know each other before?

Zhixue:……

Seeing the captain's passionate eyes, Zhixue hid behind Loquat Juuzang with some fear.

She seemed to remember that this captain seemed to be the captain of the merchant ship that sailed from the Kingdom of Thunder to the Kingdom of Fire. Did he have such a wide range of interests? He was actually on his way to the Kingdom of Water, but his eyes always gave Zhixue a strange feeling.

Looking at Zhixue who seemed to be hiding from him on purpose, the smile on the captain's face froze, and his heart seemed to be broken into pieces, so he could only squat down and draw circles.

He is obviously very handsome, why does he react like this? We obviously had a warm meal together at the table before, right?

The captain seemed a little sad to leave here, and Loquat Juuzang also handed a ticket to Zhixue's hand.

"This captain is a pretty good person. He often does some commodity transportation work in this area. I got to know him because I saved his child when he defected a few years ago. But kid, it seems that you and him They seem to be old acquaintances as well.”

Loquat Juuzang sat on the iron shelf next to him, obviously wanting to hear Zhixue's story.

"Ah, needless to say, this is just a simple solution to the problem of sea attack. Speaking of sneaking into the Kingdom of Water, are we going to directly enter the Kirigakure Village to detect intelligence?"

Hearing Zhixue mention this, Loquat Juuzang also had a headache.

"You need to do this for specific tasks, but sneaking into the Great Ninja Village to steal information is not a simple matter, not to mention that you are good at hiding and assassinating in the blood mist. If you are not careful, you may really I will stay there forever." Loquat Juuzang closed his eyes and said regretfully as he recalled the village with bloody memories.

"Emmm... Is it difficult to sneak into the Great Ninja Village and steal information?" Zhixue thought about the defensive capabilities of Konoha Village. It can't be said that it's not there, but at least it's not to the level of difficulty. It's this guy Kabuto Yakushi. But he has been sneaking into Konoha for so many years and has never been discovered.

Loquat Juuzang glanced at Zhixue strangely, his expression seemed to be doubtful and said: So...have you ever stolen it?

"Hmm... don't look at me like that. You just stole the ninjutsu scroll to become stronger. A salty fish like me is not good at being a spy." Zhixue explained with his hands spread out.

"Okay, since you don't want to tell your story, forget it. Once you enter the Kingdom of Water, you can follow closely behind me. For now, you can just play around while I go. Buy some fruit." Loquat Juuzang stood up from the iron shelf, and then took out a money bag from his pocket.

"it is good."

It seems that because of the tasks he did in the Akatsuki organization, his wallet was also bulging, and he could just buy some fruit on the shore. If he waited until he got on the ship to buy such things, the price would not be so high.

Watching Loquat Juuzang gradually leaving, Zhixue also slowly walked to the nearby beach. Feeling the cold wind blowing, Zhixue took the plush coat that Zhisui had put on her before from the system space. He took it out and put it on.

Looking at the endless coastline and the shells washed up on the beach by the waves, Zhixue also let out a breath of hot breath.

"It's a pity that it's winter now. If it were summer, it would be very lively here, right?"

While Zhixue was still admiring the scenery of the coast alone, a systematic sound interrupted the peaceful moment.

Ding, I noticed that there is a supplementary part in the system panel. It has been completed. Please check it.

"Supplementary part?" Zhixue thought for a while, and finally decided to open it and take a look. Then when he saw the extra 100 points of intelligence and 5 point of talent on top of the 1 cards, a tic-tac-toe appeared on his forehead.

Intelligence: 5~8 (IQ fluctuates with the state. It is easy to make mistakes in daily life, but you will also think of solutions to problems at critical moments.)

Talent: 10 (Sharingan +5, Hashirama Cell +4.)

Is she really that bad? (angry)

Chapter 145, The Hidden Mist Village

Under the setting sun, Zhixue sat on a wooden box outside the merchant ship and blew in the sea breeze, still peeling a green orange in her hand.

Sitting on a boat... it's floating, and you can't feel the solidity of the earth, but it does blow against your cheeks like the wind, and you can clearly feel the breath of freedom. This is a feeling that I have never experienced in Konoha.

Loquat Juuzang opened the hatch, looked out at the endless sea, and sighed.

The other side of the sea is his hometown, but now he has changed beyond recognition, and the memories of the past have gradually been shrouded in a thick layer of blood mist, becoming blurry and full of killing and crime.

"Kid, do you like the wind so much?"

"Aren't you coming out to have some fun now?"

Loquat Juuzang came to Zhixue's side and found a seat to sit down.

"I just came to see you. After being alone for a long time, I finally have a teammate to keep me company. I can't help but want to take a look."

Zhixue glanced at Loquat Juuzang sideways, and then threw the remaining orange peel into the sea.

"Uncle, weren't you once a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen? And now that you have joined the Akatsuki organization, how can you feel lonely?"

Hearing Zhixue's voice, Loquat Juuzang covered his cheeks in self-mockery.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen... To put it mildly, they are the most powerful assassination organization in the Kingdom of Water. They specialize in carrying out various difficult tasks issued by the Mizukage. But in fact, in the mainland, they are all doing their own thing. Although their movements and tactics are tacitly understood , but they are basically not in the same group, let alone talking about feelings.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. It's almost night, go back and rest early. The sea breeze at night is very cold, and your skin is easily frostbitten." Loquat Juuzang returned to the cabin, and Zhixue also looked at the scenery for a while. He also returned to the room and fell asleep.

After three or four days at sea, they arrived at the shore of the Water Kingdom port. While the workers were still unloading the goods, the two of them sneaked out.

Arriving around the coast of the Kingdom of Water, there was still a light layer of fog in the morning, but this did not affect life very much. Zhixue, who had just got off the boat, wandered around looking at some new things, such as various There are seafood and some unique snacks, but it seems that ordinary people living here are very afraid of the Kirigakure Village ninjas passing by.

Seeing a group of Kirigakure ninjas running over from the roof, Juuzang Loquat, who had used the transformation technique to disguise himself, also pulled on his tie.

After seeing Kirigakure's ninjas walking away, Juuzang said to Zhiyue: "This is the coastline of the Kingdom of Water, so the defense is naturally more stringent, but it will ease a lot when we gradually go deeper inside. ”

"Do you need to find a place for me to fly you there?" Zhixue raised his head and asked Loquat Juuzang.

"Ah, this might be a good idea..."

Ten minutes later, before the fog dissipated, Zhixue took Loquat Juuzang's hand and flew hundreds of meters into the air, jumping up into the clouds. At this height, even ninjas would find it difficult to detect their traces. .

After flying for more than ten kilometers using the art of light and heavy rock, Zhixue also landed in a mountainous field and continued the mission.

……

Outside Kirigakure Village…

There seemed to be more than twenty detonating charms of various sizes and various kunai traps buried in a forest here. Several Anbu were still here carefully checking the strength of various traps and the surrounding barriers.

"Mizukage-sama, the trap has been set, but do we still need to inform the surrounding villagers and ninjas? If they accidentally step on it..." Just after the ANBU said this, he saw Yagura's pair of He looked at his position with cold eyes, and a huge pressure made his whole back soaked with cold sweat.

"This is something to be used to entertain enemies who attack Kirigakure. The first thing is to rule out intelligence problems. If you want to deceive the enemy, you must first deceive yourself. Do you understand?"

"Ming, I understand..." Anbu retreated, trembling.

Yagura looked at the departing ANBU and the traps around him that seemed to blend into the environment, and turned around to summon the ninjas. It was estimated that those two guys would come over in the next few days. He would use the number of people to suppress the enemy. As for whether someone would step on the trap by mistake, that was not within the scope of his consideration. All of this was in the service of "that adult", and it didn't matter how many ninjas died.

A red light flashed faintly in Yagura's eyes and he quickly ran towards the village.

……

After arriving at the Kingdom of Water, Zhixue and Loquat Juzo used their ability to fly to cross several islands in the middle and traveled for half a day before arriving at the villages surrounding Kirigakure.

Sitting on the stool in the wooden house, Loquat Juuzang unfolded the map of Kirigakure Village on the table.

"Look, this library is where we are going to enter, but because it is not far from the Mizukage Building, we need to be extremely careful and try to take out the information without alerting the Anbu."

"As for how we enter this village... we can go to the west side where their defenses are relatively weak. This is a small waterfall. The village's water is usually imported from here, although there are usually specialized departments who will go there every few minutes. The water quality is tested, but compared to other places, this is already the best place to make a breakthrough.”

Zhixue tilted his head on one side of the table, looked at the large blank area around the waterfall on the map, pointed at it and said, "Are fruits and vegetables grown here?"

Looking at the direction Zhixue was pointing, Loquat Juuzang also said: "There is a small forest and pool here. It used to be the place where the third generation Mizukage trained the ninja troops, but it has been put aside now. According to the information I have inquired about, it has recently been It doesn’t seem to have any other use, as long as we are more hidden, we can sneak into the past secretly.”

"Emm... why do you feel like something is wrong here? Isn't there a trap?" Zhixue looked at the blank area on the map and always felt that something was going to happen.

Faced with Zhixue's question, Loquat Juuzang shook his head. Even if Kirigakure Village were to come again, it would still be a Great Ninja Village. There was no way he would place danger at his doorstep, right? And there are patrol officers patrolling the surrounding area from time to time.

"Well, since that's the case, let's act quickly." Zhixue and Loquat Juuzang nodded, but just when Zhixue was about to leave, he was pulled back by Loquat Juuzang. return.

"Huh? Is there anything else?" Zhixue looked at Loquat Juuzang and asked with confusion.

"Spray this on." Loquat Juuzang took out a small white bottle of spray from his pocket.

Xiaoxue exudes a faint fragrance. Although you can only notice it when you get close, it is better to remove it just in case.

Chapter 146, Three-tailed Jinchuuriki

"Why do you feel there is a faint fishy smell here? Is it because the fishery here is very developed?" Zhixue asked curiously while sneaking into the forest with Loquat Juuzang.

"No, this is the faint smell of human blood." Loquat Juuzang frowned and said.

Zhixue:……

The Emotional Bloody Mist is really a "bloody" mist.

Loquat Juuzang smelled the faint smell of blood in the air, and began to think in his mind.

Although Kirigakure Village is called the Blood Mist Village, this is just another name for brutal rule. Normally, there should not be such a smell in the air outside the village...

"I'll go check it out first. You stay where you are and wait for me to come back." Loquat Juuzang informed Zhixue. He originally wanted to go some distance further into the depths of the woods, but this strange phenomenon made him feel sad. Some are not stable.

But just when Loquat Juuzang wanted to run out, Zhixue pulled him back.

"Don't go, my little snake should be back soon." Zhixue pulled Loquat Juuzang's clothes and shook his head.

As soon as Zhixue finished speaking, a small green snake emerged from the fallen leaves, crawled along Zhixue's clothes, and hissed on Zhixue's fingers.

"How about it?"

"emmm... This road is blocked and there are many detonating talisman formations. Let's find another way. How about I go in by myself and you can stay here as a backup." Zhixue pointed to the three magatama spinning in his pupils and said. .

Although the traps there are very dense, Sharingan can easily see through them. It only takes a few minutes for her to easily pass through them and then use the hydration technique to sneak into the interior of Kirigakure.

"This is not possible. You are not familiar with this place. If you go to the wrong place or are discovered by the ninjas of Kirigakure Village, I am afraid your life will be lost." Loquat Juuzang listened to Zhixue's plan to sneak in alone. He said with a serious look.

"Uncle Wei, you have to believe me. These guys are just small dishes. I have one hand... wait, there seems to be something." In Zhixue's perception, a thick fog with chakra fluctuations seemed to come from a few hundred meters away. It swept over from outside, and there were also vague figures among them, probably not a few in number.

"What did you sense?" Seeing Zhixue's slightly surprised look, Loquat Juuzang suddenly said with a tight heart.

"It's very thick fog, and there are people. It seems that we are surrounded. We have been ambushed thousands of meters away. If I had known, my senses would be fully activated." Zhixue pulled out the Grass Pheasant Sword, and a flash appeared in his eyes. Scarlet light.

Because he felt that opening too much would easily knock him out, Zhixue only opened a small part of the opening. However, he did not expect that the enemy seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and there were nearly a thousand in number. Zhixue even suspected that Obi Tou was the enemy. It wasn't that he was deliberately trying to mess with her, or that he wanted to see the Nine-Tails attack the village again.

call out!

In the open space a few hundred meters away, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura came to the edge of the woods with a long stick on his back, and there was a team of ANBU following behind him.

"Mizukage-sama, it seems that some civilians stepped on the trap by mistake, thus alerting the enemy. I'm afraid the trap is not easy to hit."

"Useless things... things like this can go wrong. Forget it, we have surrounded them anyway. Let's fully open the barrier we set up before. Remember to use the strongest power."

Hearing what Yagura said, the ANBU was a little surprised and said: "Mizukage-sama, if you open it with all your strength, then the barrier protecting Kirigakure Village may..."

"Go if I tell you to do it. If these two people run away, I will sacrifice your head to heaven..."

Seeing Yagura's gloomy expression, Anbu nodded his head tremblingly and went down to prepare the barrier.

With such a cerebral palsy water figure on the stand, the Kingdom of Water is really unlucky.
