Escape From Konoha Chapter 323

  Chapter 323 Secret Art Scroll

  The towering peaks are hidden in the clouds and mist. From a distance, you can only see the huge black silhouette, which is daunting

  Different from ninja villages in other big countries, they are either built on gentle sand dunes, plain areas, or flat coasts. Yunyin Village, which belongs to the country of thunder, is a ninja village built among mountains and ravines.

  In Ninja Village, there are the most fighting ninjas. The folk customs are tough, and they advocate practical action and strength.

   At the same time, it is also the village that has the most persistent appeal for military power among the ninja villages of the five major countries.

  Located on the training ground at the top of a mountain, the Fourth Raikage and his personal secretary Kami Ninjutsu Mabui appeared here, accompanied by the guard Kami Ninjutsu Darui, and Kami Ninjutsu Nozomi who is proficient in illusion, medical ninjutsu and sensory ninjutsu.

   These two people went to the Iron Country to participate in the Five Kages Conference with the Fourth Raikage before, which is enough to prove their strength and potential, and they have been highly recognized by Raikage.

   "Is this the Kunai Gun developed by the Oni Land military? It looks like the weapons used in the Sky Country in the past."

  Fourth Raikage looked at the Kunai Gun in his right hand, which was a weapon developed by the Oni Nation's military, while in his left hand, he was holding a slightly worn Kunai Gun, which was a ninja tool used by the Sky Country in the past.

   During the Second Ninja World War, Yun Yin also participated in the ranks of eliminating the Kingdom of the Sky, and also plundered many ninja tools belonging to the Kingdom of the Sky.

   "Actually, there are differences. The kunai gun developed by the Oni Nation is not only light and durable, but also automatically attaches chakra attributes when firing, enhancing the speed and penetration of the kunai. The design of the burst is also better than the kunai guns of the sky country in the past."

   Standing aside, Mabui gave a pertinent evaluation.

   "That's right, let's not talk about the upper ninja for now, if the lower ninja and the middle ninja are each equipped with such a weapon, then the tactics used in daily battles will also be enriched."

   As he spoke, Fourth Raikage picked up the Kunai Gun developed by Sora Nokuni in his left hand, pulled the trigger, and a Kunai quickly ejected from the barrel, shooting towards a distant target.

  Chick!

  Kunai pierced into the target without any surprise, and fixed on it, shaking tremblingly.

  Fourth Raikage didn't speak, then put down his left hand, raised the Kunai Gun developed by the Oni Nation's military in his right hand, and pulled the trigger just like before, with a whoosh, the Kunai in the barrel was fired faster.

   It didn't stab the target, but directly penetrated the wooden target, pierced into the wall behind the target, and firmly rooted on the wall, causing a shocking scar to appear at the stabbing position.

  The power of the old and the new Kunai guns, and the judgment will be judged.

   "It's really a terrible weapon. If a ninja takes it, it will immediately form a strong combat power."

   Kami Shinobi, who served as Raikage's guard, was amazed when he saw this scene.

  This kind of powerful Kunai is not surprising to him.

  He attaches Chakra to Kunai, which can also achieve similar effects, or even better.

  However, if this kind of weapon is widely used by ninjas on a large scale, then the sacrifice rate of ninjas in battle will be greatly reduced.

   It will change the tactics of the **** ninjas.

   Jonin Darui, who served as Raikage's guard together with Nozomi, put his hands behind his head and whistled, also expressing surprise.

   Such an inconspicuous thing, the kunai emitted by it, has such a powerful penetrating power, if you are not careful, the jonin will also be affected.

   "Yes, this is the value of this kind of ninja. It seems that the military of the ghost country is looking for a strong military force just like us."

  Azabui nodded.

   Judging from the popularization of such ninja tools by the military of the ghost country, they have completed the reform of ninja tools ahead of schedule. The military ninjas are almost full. It can be foreseen that the military of the ghost country is eager for military development.

  There are many similarities with the route that Yunyin Village is going to take.

  The Fourth Raikage did not express his opinion, but threw out the Kunai gun in his right hand and flew towards Darui.

   "Boss?"

  Darui took the Kunai Spear, and looked suspiciously at the Fourth Raikage.

   "Darui, use this gun to attack me, let me try how strong the penetration power of this weapon can be."

  Fourth Raikage walked into the distance, using himself as a target.

   "What a hassle..."

   Scratching his head, Darui didn't solve it either. Holding the Kunai gun, he pointed the gun at the Fourth Raikage without hesitation.

  Even though this weapon has a strong penetrating power, Darui doesn't feel that such a toy can cause any harm to Raikage.

  Even without using the Thunder Armor, Raikage's body is as hard as steel, and the ordinary kunai can't even pierce his skin.

   "So, I launch."

   As he spoke, Darui pulled the trigger and launched Kunai carrying wind attribute chakra.

  The sharp kunai cut through the air and hit the fourth Raikage directly on the right chest.

   As if hitting an iron block, there was a whine, and Kunai was bounced away.

   "Ah, I knew it was going to be like this."

   Darui was speechless, and was not surprised by this result.

  Fourth Raikage looked at his right chest. It couldn't be said that there was no injury, but there was a very thin incision. If you don't observe carefully, it is really difficult to detect.

   "It can actually leave a mark on my body, the power is pretty good."

  Fourth Raikage said not modestly.

  His ninjutsu was passed down from his father, Sandai Raikage.

  Although his body is not as strong as his father's third generation of Raikage, who can fight tailed beasts hand-to-hand, it is not something that can be hurt by ordinary weapons and ninjutsu.

  So far, except for the soft fist of the Hyuga clan and the spiral pill of the fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato, there is no character who can ignore his tough body.

  If the lightning armor is attached, the body's defense will rise by another level.

  Most offensive ninjutsu can be ignored directly.

  Combined with his current No. 1 speed in the ninja world, it is not difficult to ride a thousand on the battlefield.

   After all, compared to the third Ninja World War, his strength has grown substantially, which is not the same.

   "Although Raikage-sama has a strong body, please don't act like this, let's forget it this time."

  Mabuyi came over and warned with a sigh.

   "I'm just testing the performance of these weapons... Well, I have a rough idea of ​​the power of this gun. This time, I only imported 2,000 guns, and some of them will be disassembled and studied by the research department to strive for self-sufficiency. The rest can be discussed, but when it comes to national defense, you must master the production channels."

  The fourth generation of Raikage made a final decision and approved Kunai Gun.

  Part of it is put into the working ninjas, let them experiment and use, and the other part is handed over to the R&D department to infiltrate the principle of Kunai Gun, and strive to make their own Kunai Gun instead of relying on the kingdom of ghosts.

   "Yes, then, about another batch of flying ninjas, do you want to test it?"

   Azabui asked.

   "Don't be so troublesome. I remember that the earth platform is responsible for it. Just take out one or two pieces and hand them over to the R&D department for further study."

  The Fourth Raikage shook his head. Seeing the weapons here, he basically understood the specific positioning of these weapons.

   It can change some of the tactics of ninjas today, but it hasn't changed completely.

  But as all countries begin to study such weapons, the mode and tactics of future ninja wars will also change to a certain extent.

   This kind of thing is completely predictable for the Fourth Raikage.

  Azabui nodded, and recorded the words of the Fourth Raikage.

   "So, is there anything else to deal with next, Mabui? If not, then I will go to practice."

   Fourth Raikage asked.

  Azabui works as a secretary. He usually not only helps Raikage with countermeasures and staff, but is also responsible for arranging Raikage's work schedule, which greatly improves Raikage's office efficiency and strives not to waste time.

   "There are two things."

   Azabui said at this time.

"What's up?"

   "Not long ago, Jiraiya, one of the Konoha Sannin, sent a piece of information, hoping that we should be alert to a ninja called 'Chiko' from the Oni Land military. The other party seems to have the ability to destroy Chakra. I think this information is more important, so I wrote it down."

   Azabui replied.

   "Is the intelligence reliable?"

   Fourth Raikage asked.

   "Since the source of information is that Sannin, it should be reliable."

   "Then leave it to the intelligence department to deal with, and just sort out the detailed report and show it to me."

   Fourth Raikage ordered.

   "Yes. However, Sannin Jiraiya also provided such information for free. It seems that Konoha is very jealous of the kingdom of ghosts."

  Azabui made such a judgment, and it can be predicted that Konoha has indeed gone downhill since the third Ninja World War.

  Before at the Five Kages Conference, the arrest warrant for the kingdom of ghosts was removed, and it was also criticized by many people in the world, and its prestige was not as good as before.

   On the contrary, because Yun Yin has always focused on the development of military power, whether it is the number of ninjas or the logistics of armaments, after the third Ninja World War, there has been a significant increase.

   Recently, the number of businessmen who came to Yunyin to entrust missions has increased significantly.

  Konoha's strength and prestige have declined, so it is only natural for guests to go to other ninja villages to entrust missions.

   On the other hand, the ninjas in the Kingdom of Ghosts do not rely on mission entrustment to obtain rewards, but they will not be restricted by the mission system of the Five Kingdoms Ninja Village.

  As long as the Kingdom of Ghosts does not involve mission entrustment business, then the market share of the missions belongs to the five major countries, or still belongs to the five major countries, and has not been circulated to the outside. Then, Yunyin and Ghost Kingdom don't have too much conflict of interest.

   As for how to deal with the Daming Mansion of the Kingdom of Thunder, that is their business.

   At the beginning of the establishment of Ninja Village, it was agreed that Yun Yin was only responsible for national defense, and political matters were things that daimyo and nobles needed to consider. Whether it is seeking cooperation or sanctioning the country of ghosts, it has nothing to do with Yunyin.

   However, with the commercial strength displayed by the Kingdom of Ghosts today, the advantages of cooperation outweigh the disadvantages.

  Therefore, Azabui thought that it was not a very smart move for Sha Yin to use the Five Kages Conference to put pressure on the Oni Kingdom.

  There is no reason for Lei Zhiguo and Yunyin to become gunmen in the hands of others.

   "This is something inside Konoha, we just need to wait and see what happens. So, what is the second thing?"

   Fourth Raikage asked.

   Speaking of this, Mabui's face became a little more serious, and he reported to the Fourth Raikage: "That's about Raikage-sama's request last time. Anbu has already found the target."

"Require?"

  Raikage the Fourth Raikage touched his chin, but didn't react for a while.

  Mabui said: "It is about strengthening the secret art of strengthening the meridian system of the human body. Anbu has already found such a thing. Raikage-sama's external body is already strong enough. Facing the only weakness of Rouquan, there is only the internal defect of the body."

   "Is it true that you found it, Mabui? Tell me quickly, who owns this secret technique?"

  After listening, Fourth Raikage's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to ask.

   "Sugary Country, a small ninja tribe called Sugnin Village... In this village, there is an ancient secret technique inheritance, which is said to strengthen the meridian system and internal organs inside the human body. If the practice is successful, the threat of Soft Fist to Raikage-sama will be greatly reduced."

   Azabu replied.

   "Great! Prepare your manpower immediately, and hurry to this place called Sugi Village. Anyone who dares to block the way will be crushed by me!"

  Fourth Raikage heard this, his eyes shone brightly, revealing the momentum that he was bound to win.

   "The business seems to be a bit sluggish recently."

  The white-haired man said to the owner of the tavern.

  The tavern owner took a look at the white-haired man and replied, "Yes, because of the strong rise of the ghost kingdom, business in the western part of the ninja world has become difficult."

"Is it so exaggerated?"

   The white-haired man asked.

  The owner of the tavern sighed, wiped the glass in his hand, and continued to answer: "It is so difficult to do. You also know that the ghost country basically has a zero-tolerance attitude towards this part of the market. Not only the ghost country, but also the underground markets in the ghost country, the ghost country, the bear country, and the snow country.

   Speeches that seem to have no connection, but in fact they are not.

  The tavern is just a disguise, the essence here is an underground black market trading platform.

  The guests who come to this tavern are all people with special status—bounty hunters.

  The composition of bounty hunters comes from rebellious and rootless ninjas from various countries, as well as wandering warriors who know how to use Chakra.

   This is a group of violent groups who can do all kinds of bad things for money.

   On the bright side of the ninja world, the five great powers are respected, but in the dark world, it is the underground black market that runs rampant.

  The relationship in the underground black market is intricate and complicated. Political figures from various countries, as well as big businessmen well-known in the ninja world, all have secret funding. Spend money to hire bounty hunters and do some shady things for yourself.

  So, the market is up.

  The five major countries turned a blind eye to this.

  However, the newly emerging military power Ghost Country is different. Their country's high-level officials have a zero-tolerance attitude towards the underground black market.

  The underground black markets in the surrounding countries of the ghost country were impacted at the same time and were attacked and destroyed by unknown persons.

   It is self-evident which country is leading behind this.

  In the past, when the two great powers of climate and soil jointly carve up the western part of the ninja world, this situation did not appear now. As a result, the kingdom of ghosts has just risen, and the underground black market in the western part of the ninja world has been attacked at the same time... Anyone with a discerning eye knows what is going on.

   But facing the Kingdom of Ghosts that defeated the Kingdom of Wind, the big shots on the platform can only roar loudly in their own rooms, and there is nothing they can do about it.

  Facing the Kingdom of Oni, who has defeated Kazekage, one of the five shadows of the Kingdom of Wind, it is impossible to win no matter how you look at it. According to legend, Uchiha Ruri summoned a towering giant, and with one knife, he beheaded thousands of sand ninjas, and cut down thousands of sand ninjas with only a dozen knives. And Chiba Shiraishi, the military leader of the ghost country, was even more terrifying, killing tens of thousands of sand ninjas in an instant with a ninjutsu move.

  It is only an underground black market as a trading platform, so it is naturally not qualified to collide with a military power.

   Because of this, due to the serious damage to the west, the recent income of the underground black market has decreased by 20 to 30% compared with the previous month.

   Even the salaries of these staff members have dropped a little.

   "So, the target's bounty will also be adjusted?"

  The white-haired man asked his most concerned question.

   "This is not true. If the bounty is lowered, most bounty hunters will be dissatisfied."

  The tavern owner laughed.

   "That's right. Alright, let's come to some interesting tasks. I just have a little free time recently."

  The white-haired man also laughed.

   "The ability of Mr. Chongnan's team is worthy of recognition. Speaking of which, since Mr. Jiaodu's retirement, the Xuan Yuanzhong led by Mr. Chongnan is our signature hunter in the underground black market."

  The tavern owner said in a respectful tone.

   "Everywhere, our comrades think highly of us."

  The white-haired man—the worm man smiled modestly.

   "This is not necessarily the case. The completion rate of the reward task is close to 100%. The ninjas who hunt ninjas—Xuan Yuanzhong, but there are many big figures who appreciate your abilities. If you are willing to be a famous retainer, you must be a guest."

  The tavern owner smiled at the worm man, as if he was sending a message for a certain "big shot".

  The worm man shook his head, smiled wryly and said: "Forget it, we are used to being free and undisciplined, but if we are controlled by others, we are not used to it."

   "That's right, Mr. Chongnan, you are not yet ready to retire. However, I would also like to advise you that being a bounty hunter in the black market is very difficult to end well. Mr. Chongnan, please think about your future... Well, well, this is the end of the gossip. There just happens to be a task that needs to be handed over to Xuan Yuanzhong to complete."

  The tavern owner handed over a glass of wine.

   "Oh? What is it?"

  The worm man picked up the glass, took a sip of the wine inside, and narrowed his eyes.

   "The task issuer is an elder from Sugzhi Village. They entrusted the Xuanyuan people led by Mr. Chongnan to take back their secret techniques. The entrustment fee is 80 million taels."

   "Eighty million taels? Such a high bounty is needed?"

  Hearing the bounty reward, the worm man widened his eyes slightly, and seemed a little surprised.

   Even Xuan Yuanzhong rarely received such a high reward task in a year.

  Most of the reward tasks they accept, the reward amount is around 10 million taels to 30 million taels.

   The task reward of 80 million taels has not been received for more than a year.

  Put it in Ninja Village's entrustment system, such a task is undoubtedly the highest S-level difficulty task that requires several jounin to complete.

   "Although it's a bit unbelievable, this is indeed a bounty given by the client."

  The tavern owner looked serious.

   "It seems that the secret technique lost by Sugzhi Village is not a simple thing... Or, it is not easy to **** the object of Sugzhi Village's secret technique."

   The worm man muttered.

  The tavern owner nodded, leaned into the ear of the worm man, and said a word.

   After hearing this, the worm man's expression became more and more dignified, but he finally nodded in agreement.

  Since his debut, Xuan Yuanzhong has never lost without a fight.

  No matter how difficult the task is and how terrifying the enemy you face, you should try your best.

   "Recapturing the secret technique stolen from Sugino Village?"

  In the hotel in the town, the man who had picked up the mission discussed with the other four people from Xuan Yuanzhong.

  The other four are soil men who use earth escape ninjutsu.

  A fire man who is good at fire escape ninjutsu.

  A water man who is proficient in water escape ninjutsu.

   and Yingnan who uses Yindu ninjutsu.

  Each of them is endowed with a system of spells. Although one person is not a powerful ninja, their strength lies in their cooperation.

   To deal with most of the enemies, only four people are needed to play. Once encountering a strong ninja, the bug man will use his blaster to blow up the enemy to death.

   The danger of blasters, even Jiraiya, one of Konoha Sannin, has suffered in this regard.

  In the ninja world, there are very few ninjas who can compete with Sannin. Therefore, Xuan Yuanzhong in the underground black market was feared by everyone and became the client's guest of honor.

   "Yes." Facing Yingnan's question, Chongnan nodded and continued: "I heard that a few days ago, some unidentified ninjas entered the Sugzhi Country. Their goal was to steal a certain secret technique passed down from generation to generation in Sugzhi Village. After a battle, the secret technique of Sugzhi Village was robbed... The task issued by the elders of Sugzhi Village is to let us get back the stolen scroll of the secret technique in Sugzhi Village."

   "Then, the person who snatched the secret technique of Sugino Village..."

   "Yunyin Ninja."

  The worm man spit out this sentence slowly.

  The rest of the dead frowned, feeling the difficulty of the matter.

  In order to enhance military strength, Yunyin collected secret and forbidden techniques everywhere. This matter is not a secret in the ninja world.

   However, out of awe of the Kingdom of Thunder, the other four countries just turned a blind eye to Yun Yin's actions and only verbally reprimanded them.

  In this way, if Sugzhi Village really has some powerful secret arts, then it is not incomprehensible for Yun Yin to know about it and be robbed.

  This is Yun Yin's authoritarian style.

  Because Yunyin pursued power at all costs, ninja villages in various countries also had to expand their armaments to guard against Yunyin.

   "Who is Yunyin taking the lead?"

  The native man asked.

  The insect man shook his head and replied: "I don't know for the time being, but those who entered Shanzhi Village to steal the secret art scrolls were only a few junin from Yunyin Village, who are good at swordsmanship and thunder escape, and injured many people in Shanzhi Village."

   This result is normal.

  Shanzhi Village is just a little-known small village, and it has been in decline for many years, and the Junin of Yunyin Village is generally a powerful force faction, and the Junin of the small village is even stronger. It's not a strange thing for such a declining village that even a few Yunyin Shangren can't do anything about it.

   After all, some ninja villages are really small, and only a few junin can be conquered.

  The ninja strength of Sugzhi Village is not so weak, but it is not much stronger.

   "Then let's investigate. Since you have accepted the mission, even if the opponent is Yun Yin, you must complete the mission."

  Shui Nan said.

   The worm man waited for the dead man to nod, this is indeed the truth.

   After all, it is not a frontal confrontation with a ninja village, but if you just take back the secret scroll, it is not impossible.

   Moreover, if you find that you are invincible at that time, it is not too late to retreat.

  Facing an opponent like Yun Yin, they dare not be careless.

   "In addition, after completing this task, the headquarters also entrusted a task."

   The worm man said at this time.

   "What task?"

  Zongnan glanced at everyone, and said: "The leader asked us to find the whereabouts of Tsunade, one of the three ninjas. It seems that he has something important to discuss with her. If there are no other questions, let's go."

   After the worm man finished speaking, he walked out of the guest room first, and the other four followed, and started to chase the cloud hidden ninja who stole the secret scroll of Sugi Village with worm man.
