I, Yu Uchiha, am devoted to cultivating immortality

Chapter 292 Kirigakure Ninja: Maybe we can win?

Kakuzu opened his mouth and said in a voice as rough as sandpaper: "No, I will die too. This powerful existence killed me four times in one go. If he does it again, I will really die."

Xiaonan said in surprise: "It's quite rare to have five lives."

Nagato asked: "Kakuzu, I am very satisfied with your strength and reaction. My invitation to you still counts. What is your decision?"

Kakuzu lowered his head slightly and said sincerely: "I accept your invitation. I think if I don't accept it, I will really die."

Nagato nodded and said: "It's a wise decision. You are right. If you don't agree, I won't let you leave."

"I think you still have something to do, so go ahead and do it. Remember to come find me in Yuyin Village after you're done."

Kakuzu bowed his head and thanked: "Thank you for your tolerance, sir. I have to go to the money exchange to exchange money first, and then find some ninjas to recover."

"I need three days, and I will come to you in three days."

"It's just that Amegakure Village is a medium-sized ninja village. How should I contact you when I get there? Should I ask the Amegakure ninja?"

Nagato replied: "No, as long as you get close to the Hidden Rain Village and let your body get a little rain, I will know you are coming."

Then he said: "Xiao Nan, Hei Jue, the matter is done, let's go back."

Xiao Nan nodded, spread his wings and flew.

But Black Zetsu suddenly appeared from the shadows at Kakuzu's feet, startling Kakuzu who had only one heart left.

He did not look at Kakuzu, but responded to Nagato: "Yes, sir."

Afterwards, Nagato and Konan flew away from the sky, and Black Zetsu, wearing the appearance of Black Zetsu, sneaked into the ground again and disappeared, leaving only a monster in Kakuzu standing there.

The monster Kakudu, which was entirely composed of black silk threads, let out a long sigh, leaned down and continued to collect his own flesh and blood, putting the fragments back on his body bit by bit.

"Oh, what a bad luck. How could we meet such a monster?"

"That guy in the lead is scarier than Senju Hashirama. Not only can he fly, but he can also see through my heart at a glance and break four of my hearts with one blow. What a monster..."

"I'm so unlucky."

"Losing four hearts all at once, I can't directly hunt powerful ninjas. The risk is too high."

"It's better to exchange money first. After the money is exchanged, we will find four weak ninjas to transition, and then hunt for the powerful ninja's heart."

"It's so troublesome. Do I have to find a way to escape?"

Kakuzu packed up everything, returned to his human form, returned to the place where he first encountered them, found the discarded clothes and put them on.

After this period of busyness, he has figured out that he cannot avoid this group of people.

The guy called Black Zetsu is the hermaphrodite that burrows in and out of the ground. He is a guy that he can't even notice. He is definitely the best detective ninja in the ninja world.

With such a scouting ninja, the monster could find Kakuzu at any time, and there was no point in hiding.

Kakuzu put his luggage on his back, took the money box and the head bag, and headed towards the money exchange in the Country of Grass.

When he was attacked by the repulsive force of the Rinnegan Eye, Kakuzu did not react at all, but he subconsciously threw away the money box and the bag of human heads, which were not destroyed by Nagato's attack.

Fortunately, it was not damaged, otherwise Kakuzu would have been desperate, and in despair he would have gone crazy, and then he would have been killed by Nagato.

Kakuzu murmured: "It's so dangerous. There is almost no chance of surrender."

"The Akatsuki Organization, an organization I've never heard of. According to that monster, the Akatsuki Organization is from Yuyin Village..."

Suddenly Kakuzu's eyes trembled, and he knew who the monster was.

The new leader of Amegakure Village, the successor of Demigod Hanzo, the killer who single-handedly killed tens of thousands of ninjas, Nagato!

Kakuzu's back arched even more, and he comforted himself by saying, "They said they asked me to take care of the money, okay, that's good. Being able to take care of the money in Yuyin Village is not bad, haha."

"Oh, it's true now, it's over..."

……

Two days later, off the east coast of the Country of Waves, a dozen large ships suddenly appeared in the morning fog and approached the coastline silently.

All the Konoha ninjas responsible for guarding and patrolling were killed more than ten minutes ago.

Under the double cover of the natural heavy fog and the Kirigakure technique, the attack from the most elite ninjas of the Kaguya clan was indeed irresistible to ordinary Konoha ninjas.

The captains of these Konoha ninjas were only chunin, and they had no chance to send a warning to the rear until they died.

When the large ship in Kirigakure Village stopped and began to transport supplies, the Kirigakure ninjas headed by the Kaguya clan had already surrounded the Konoha ninja camp.

Following an order, 142 Kirigakure ninjas jointly performed Water Release and Big Explosion Water Rush, and the monstrous flood rushed towards the Konoha ninja camp from four directions at the same time.

Water Release is the easiest ninjutsu to superimpose the power of each other. More than 35 large explosive water waves in each direction amplify each other, forming a 14-meter-high tsunami.

The huge wave easily knocked down the thick wall, and also knocked down the Earth Release Ninjutsu to defend against floods. All of them, including the Konoha ninjas who used Ninjutsu on the wall, were smashed to pieces by the violent waves.

Following the tsunami that rushed into the camp, there were 21 Kaguya ninjas who had awakened their corpse veins.

Relying on the defensive power of their bone armor, they ignored waves of water release ninjutsu attacks. Amid various water release ninjutsu attacks, they brandished bone knives to attack Konoha ninjas.

Under the combination of attacks from near and far, the resistance of the Konoha ninjas was quickly broken, and in less than ten minutes, the entire army was annihilated.

There were more than 400 Konoha ninjas in the camp, plus 24 four-person teams patrolling the outside. The Kirigakure ninjas easily annihilated 500 enemies without losing a single person.

This is not the first time in this war that such a great result has been achieved, but it is indeed the first time that it can be won easily without losses.

The Kirigakure ninjas were so excited that when the Fifth Mizukage arrived, they were still cheering excitedly and didn't even bother to clean the battlefield.

When seeing the Fifth Mizukage, the Kaguya clan first shouted: "Long live the Fifth Mizukage!"

Then, all the Kirigakure ninjas shouted, and for a while the shouts of "Long live" resounded throughout the sky.

Otsutsuki Hamura wanted to stop such meaningless cheering, but suddenly felt that his body seemed to become a little stronger, which made him swallow his words to stop him.

Not only did the Fifth Mizukage not stop the cheers, he even raised his hand to signal to everyone, causing even greater cheers.

As the cheers rose, the Kirigakure ninjas' recognition and admiration for him continued to grow, which also made him certain of one thing.

The admiration of Otsutsuki Hamura by the Kirikage ninjas fed back to him, greatly strengthening his connection with the ninja world.

Not only did it reduce the conflict between him and the ninja world, it also made his existence more stable.

Otsutsuki Hamura was delighted to find that all of this had greatly improved his combat effectiveness.

The improvement in combat effectiveness makes it easier for Otsutsuki Hamura to achieve miraculous results.

And the miracle will undoubtedly further the Kirigakure ninja's admiration for him, and further promote the growth of his strength.

With such a positive cycle, Otsutsuki Hamura will soon be able to regain his former strength and become a god-like existence in the ninja world.

[Maybe this time, Kirigakure Village is not bound to lose in this war. 】

[If everything goes well, I will not only get information about Konoha Village, but I will even have a chance to defeat Konoha Village. 】

[If Kirigakure Village can win the war, I can sweep away Konoha Village forcefully and confirm who the destiny destroyer is that hindered my brother’s plan. 】

The unlucky Otsutsuki Hamura, because he could not contact Pure Land, did not know that Otsutsuki Hagoromo had determined that Uchiha Yuu was the target of their brothers' search.

But Yuu Uchiha is one of the targets Hamura Otsutsuki is most suspicious of.

Because in the intelligence of Kirigakure Village, Uchiha Yu suddenly emerged as the strongest ninja in Konoha Village.

Not only was he an Uchiha who awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, he also awakened the Wood Release Blood Successor of the Senju clan. With such an unusual performance, how could we not doubt him?

However, Otsutsuki Hamura suspected more than one target.

Orochimaru, Tsunade, Jiraiya, Namikaze Minato, Uzumaki Kushina, Uchiha Fugaku, these ninjas who have a huge voice in Konoha Village are all targets of his suspicion.

Even the relatives, friends, cronies and subordinates of these ninjas are also the objects of suspicion by Otsutsuki Hamura.

After all, the target he was looking for was the Destroyer of Destiny hiding in Konoha Village, not the most powerful ninja in Konoha Village.

Destiny is the most elusive existence and has a huge impact on destiny. It may be enough to just say a word to these powerful ninjas and change one of their minds.

Maybe what Hamura Otsutsuki is looking for is an inconspicuous little person next to Konoha's top ninjas.

In any case, Uchiha Yuu is already the target of the Fifth Mizukage's suspicion, and he ranks first.

This lack of information has little impact.

Otsutsuki Hamura only needs to spend a little more time and have direct contact with Uchiha Yu to confirm it immediately.

What's really terrible is that he doesn't know how strong Uchiha Yu is, and the information he has is still in the public information stage.

Otsutsuki Hamura firmly believes that he can defeat Uchiha Yu, so his first contact with Uchiha Yu is likely to turn into a fiasco.

The Fifth Mizukage, who knew nothing about this, was immersed in the worship of the Kirigakure ninja, enjoying the pleasure of increasing strength brought by worship.

Fortunately, he did not forget his purpose, and quickly came to his senses and issued the order: "Clean the battlefield immediately, count the results and seizures, clean up the port warehouse, and establish a transit base."

"Yes!"

"We are very tight on time. We need to set up a transit base today. We must set off after dark and land in the Fire Country early tomorrow morning."

"The reconnaissance ninjas set out immediately to complete the reconnaissance work for the large army."

"Today's forward troops will rest immediately. The first wave of attacks tomorrow morning will still require the most elite of you to execute them."

The Fifth Mizukage's orders were issued one by one, and the Kirigakure ninjas immediately began to take action, carrying out operations in an orderly manner.

From the perspective of Kirigakure ninjas, the Fifth Mizukage's orders were precise and effective, making them convincing.

Including the ninjas of the Kaguya clan, all of them were thinking: [It turns out that when we unite, under the leadership and command of the wise Mizukage, we are so powerful. 】

From top to bottom, Kirigakure ninjas are full of confidence in tomorrow's battle, and even have increasing confidence in this war.

[Maybe we can win? 】

After arranging everything, Otsutsuki Hamura went to rest first.

Because the raid was very successful, the Kirigakure ninja intercepted all the Swift Eagles and did not let the alarm be transmitted.

It would take at least a day for the Leaf Village to notice that there was a problem at the border, and then another day to make a judgment and send reinforcements.

In the next two days, the operations of Kirigakure Village can be carried out step by step, managed by the jounin and chuunin in charge, without the need for the Fifth Mizukage to watch at all times.

So Otsutsuki Hamura planned to seize the time and try his best to familiarize himself with the growing strength to avoid making unnecessary mistakes in the battle later.

Although the body of the boy from the Kaguya clan he occupied was his descendant, his corpse veins were the limits of the mutated blood inheritance that killed Ash Bones together.

I don’t know which generation of descendants crossed Ōtsutsuki Hamura and returned to Ōtsutsuki Kaguya’s ability, evolving a new line of blood inheritance limits.

This is the limit of blood inheritance that he has never grasped, and he can only explore its specific effects from scratch.

Although he is now very proficient in the development and mastery of corpse veins, this is because his level is too high and he has the advantage of knowledge brought by looking down from above.

As his strength further increased, the corpse veins moved closer to the direction of killing the ashes together, and he was blinded.

Corpse bone veins are very strong, but the negative state of mental confusion that comes with it is very annoying.

This blood inheritance limit has been raised to the sixth level, and the negative impact has become even more powerful. It not only affects the spirit, but also has a strong damaging effect on the body.

When he was fighting with his mother, because of Kaguya Otsutsuki's mercy, Hamura Otsutsuki had never been beaten by the ashes of a co-killer, and his understanding of the boundaries of this blood succession was very limited.

According to the information unintentionally leaked by his mother Kaguya Otsutsuki, a six-level powerful existence like Hamura Otsutsuki would not cause immediate fatal damage even if he was hit by the ashes of a co-killer.

But the body he currently occupies is just a ninja, and it will die instantly when faced with the ashes of a common killer.

Even though Kaguya Hamura's strength exceeds the scope of a Kage-level ninja, his body is not fundamentally different from that of an ordinary genin.

Faced with the further transformation of the corpse's bone veins, this body was unable to resist the negative effects at all, and strange diseases such as accelerated aging, neuropathic atrophy, and amyotrophic vertebralgia appeared.

Although the symptoms were not obvious, Otsutsuki Hamura did not dare to ignore them.

Based on the current changes in the body, it is certain that the progression of symptoms of these strange illnesses is accelerating.

If you ignore it carelessly, you don't know when, uncontrollable results will occur.

So Otsutsuki Hamura took advantage of this rare free time to start practicing with concentration, mastering the increased power, becoming familiar with the unfamiliar blood inheritance boundaries, and solving various difficulties that he was not accustomed to.

But what he didn't expect was that Konoha Village was different now.

The head of the Leaf Village is no longer the aging third generation Hokage, but the fourth generation Hokage Orochimaru who has just entered his prime.

This guy is the leading scientist in the ninja world, a developer of black technology, and a promoter of new technology.

After the Fourth Hokage came to power, various new technologies in the laboratory began to be promoted among Konoha ninjas, bringing changes in all aspects.

Although this change cannot reverse the strength between Jonin and Chuunin, the sudden destruction of a team of 500 Konoha ninjas no longer requires the Swift Eagle to transmit information.

When the ninjas of the Kaguya clan rushed into the Konoha camp and massacred the enemies, they did not notice that there were five short and thin genin among them. They broke the metal plates in their hands in despair.

These broken metal plates were washed away in the floods and picked up by the Kirigakure genin who were cleaning the battlefield. They were treated as useless scraps and thrown into the trash without anyone noticing.

The Kirigakure ninja didn't know that this was an ultra-long-distance communication tool developed based on chakra metal and sealing techniques.

Although it cannot communicate like a walkie-talkie and can only transmit long and short signals, it can use this palm-sized metal plate to communicate with the Leaf Village thousands of kilometers away.

Due to Uchiha Yu's suggestion, the Fourth Hokage Orochimaru stipulated that any ninja troop with more than a hundred people must communicate with Konoha Village regularly and confirm their status through responses.

Therefore, just when the Fifth Mizukage was training peacefully and the reconnaissance ninjas had just set off, the Leaf Village discovered that none of the five hundred-man brigades stationed in the Land of Waves responded within the prescribed time.

If one, two, or even three centurions failed to respond, the intelligence department ninjas who did not trust the new equipment might suspect that there was something wrong with the new equipment.

But all five hundred-man brigades failed to respond. Naturally, they knew something was wrong and quickly reported it to the Hokage's office.

After hearing the report, the Fourth Hokage Orochimaru immediately unfolded the map of the Country of Fire and found the Country of Waves.

He first slid his finger eastward, pointed at the Hidden Mist Village in the Country of Water, and nodded lightly.

Then he put his finger back to the Kingdom of Waves and slid it slightly westward, pointing directly at the east coast of the Kingdom of Fire.

"Hmph, the Fifth Mizukage is really good." Orochimaru raised the corners of his mouth with a half-smile, and said to Nara Shikaku: "Hearing that the Third Raikage died, he actually had the courage to launch an attack on our Konoha Village on his own. War, you are so brave."

Nara Shikaku touched the scar on his face and asked with a smile: "Hokage-sama, you said it was the fifth Mizukage? So there was another Mizukage in Kirigakure Village?"

Orochimaru nodded and said: "They did have a new Mizukage, and they killed the fourth generation Mizukage, Tachibana Yagura. This shows that the new Mizukage is very powerful."

Nara Shikaku said thoughtfully: "It turns out that such a violent high-ranking person was able to conceal the information so tightly that my spies did not discover it. He has a strong control over Kirigakure Village."

Orochimaru explained with a smile: "The new fifth Mizukage has indeed strong control, but the main problem is that the fourth Mizukage caused too much civil strife. The spies in Kirigakure Village were almost killed to extinction."

"The spies who were lucky enough to survive were naturally very scared and did not dare to pass on information at will. What's more important is that there are no surviving spies with the identity of Kirigakure ninjas."

"The gap between ninjas and civilians is still very deep. They really don't know that the Mizukage has been replaced."
