Go to Naruto World as a Earth Shadow

Chapter 378 Return Nanao
While the high profile of the Land of Earth and Iwa Ninja Village confused the Land of Taki, it also raised Konoha's vigilance.

With the sophisticated calculations of Sarutobi Hiruzen and others, it is natural to know the purpose of Iwanin Village. The other party is here for Konoha, intending to return Nanao to himself.

"Tsuchikage has started to make trouble again. One thing is certain, his goal is to force us to return Nanao. Shikahisa, do you think Tsuchikage's purpose is to go to Nanao, or to weaken our strength?" At the high-level meeting, Tsunade took the lead in asking questions.

Nara Shikahisa pondered slightly, and said: "With the style of the Fourth Tsuchikage, there may be two ideas. But there should be a focus."

"It's just about the tailed beast. I don't know much about the role of the tailed beast. I can't judge what his motives are for going after the seven tails, and how likely it is."

Shikahisa Nara's answer was relatively conservative. Since what happened to Shikazumi Nara last time, he has kept a low profile.

Turning to the bed, Koharu looked at Tsunade and said, "Tsunade, do you know what the specific functions of tailed beasts are?"

It was Tsunade, not Sarutobi Hiruzen, that Koharu was asking about.Hiruzaru Sarutobi might not know as much about Tailed Beasts as Tsunade.Tsunade's grandma is Kyuubi Jinchuriki.

Tsunade shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, the three successive Nine-Tails Jinchurikis in the village are all related to the Uzumaki Clan. The Uzumaki Clan's physique is far superior to ordinary people, so our Jinchuriki has always been the most stable."

"But precisely because of stability and no crisis, we have the least research on tailed beasts. Neither my grandma nor Kushina has a deep understanding of Nine Tails."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded, and said, "We know too little about tailed beasts, unlike Kumoshino. Kamobi spent the most energy on tailed beasts in the past few decades, and their research results are also the most outstanding."

Mito Menyan asked: "Isn't there still a Nanao in the village now? Has there been any relevant research?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, and said: "Nanao was not sealed into Jinchuriki's body, but was sealed in a container, so there is no way to study it."

Mito Menyan frowned again and asked: "In this case, does Yannin Village have any outstanding research results on tailed beasts?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi recalled the latest appearance of Jinchuriki in Iwanin Village.It seems that during the third Ninja World War, the opponent seems to be Jiraiya.

The five-tailed Jinchuriki's performance that time was mediocre.And it seems that less than seven years have passed since then. In seven years, Yan Ninja's research on tailed beasts should not have made much progress.

So Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Iwanin didn't spend too much energy on the research of tailed beasts. Iwanin's past development focus should be on immortal arts."

Mito Menyan said: "In this case, if Iwanin is going for Nanao, it can only be to let Iwanin village have one more tailed beast. Do you think it is possible for Iwanin to do so? "

Tsunade immediately said: "Impossible, unless Iwanin is ready to unify the ninja world. Otherwise, Iwanin can't preach that we are plotting against Takinin's Nanao, and at the same time attack Nanao himself."

"But now the strength of Yannin Village is far from reaching the level of unifying the ninja world by force. Once they do this, they will seek their own death."

At this time, Danzo suddenly said: "In this case, let Yan Ren go to death."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi frowned, and immediately understood what his good friend was thinking, and said, "Danzo, are you going to pretend to be Iwanin and attack Takikin?"

"Hmph, Yichen claims to be smart, but he underestimates the people of the world too much. No one can see that Iwanin is targeting Nanao. If this is the case, Iwanin has enough motivation to attack Nanao." Danzo said .

"We don't need to provoke this matter. Taki Shinobi's first reaction was that Yichen attacked Nanao. You know, he has a criminal record."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi was a little moved and asked, "How sure are you?"

After all, Konoha suffered a lot from Yichen's hands.

Danzo snorted coldly and said, "Since you don't believe in Genbu, let Anbu do it."

After saying a word, Danzo slammed the door and left.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi frowned slightly as he looked at the closed door.Danzo will not betray Anbu's whereabouts again, let's mess things up.

Zhuanzhu Xiaochun also had such worries, she said: "Ri Zhan, why don't you go there yourself?"

From Zhuanju Koharu's point of view, Danzo will not engage in petty tricks only if Hiruzaru Sarutobi goes out in person.

Mito Menyan smiled wryly, and interjected, "If Hirizan wants to leave the village, he'd better take Danzo with him. Otherwise, none of us can stop Danzo from messing around."

Seeing that everyone else acquiesced to his statement, Mitomonyan continued: "Hizan, I think, you'd better go to Genbu, discuss with Danzo, and let Anbu and Genbu act together. In this way, Danzo should It won't mess around."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi sighed, nodded and stopped talking.

……

More than ten days later, at the border between the two countries, more than a dozen Konoha Anbe and more than twenty Taki Shinobi completed the handover of Nanao at the border.

The leader of Taki Shinobi's side is an elite Jōnin named Kensuke.The strength is not bad, and it is also among the top few in Taki Ninja Village.

After getting Nanao, Kensuke, who watched all the Konoha ninjas leave, was slightly relieved, Nanao finally returned to his hands.

As the top fighting force in the village, Kensuke can feel the changes when there are tailed beasts in the village.When the Tailed Beast is not lost, Taki Ninja Village is different from other Ninja Villages.

No matter where the ninjas of Taki Ninja Village go, other Ninja Villages will give them three points.

But since the loss of Tailed Beast, other small ninja villages feel that it is inappropriate to give Taki ninja privileges.They changed their attitudes towards Taki Shinobu one after another, wishing to take back all the anger they had suffered on Taki Shinobu before.

So these days, the status of Taki Shinobi Village in the ninja world has plummeted, and there are often small Ninja Villages who take the initiative to provoke Taki Shinobi.

Handing the clay pot with Nanao sealed in his hand to one of his subordinates, Kensuke said: "Go back to the village, everyone, be careful. Before returning to the village, no one can be careless. Be careful of Iwanin."

"Yes." More than [-] people answered in unison, and then they kept their battle formation and marched towards Taki Ninja Village.

Kensuke also took out his weapon to stay on guard.

However, not long after the group entered the hinterland of Taki Country, they were ambushed.

More than 30 masked wandering ninjas attacked together, and most of the Taki ninja team was directly killed or injured.

Kensuke found desperately that there were at least three people in this team who were stronger than himself.There are many who are not inferior to themselves.

What kind of wandering ninja is this?This is definitely the elite of the Five Great Ninja Villages.

Kensuke looked desperate, but at this time he could only do his best.

In the end, all the Takijino were wiped out, and Nanao was also snatched away.

But shortly after the attacker left, Kensuke's body suddenly moved, and then he sat up slowly.

"Damn it." Touching the penetrating wound on his left chest, his heart was almost pierced.

Kensuke briefly treated his wound, then quickly came to the nearest town, and delivered the news to the leader of Taki Shinobi Village.

After delivering the news, Kensuke returned to the place where he was attacked.Before he fell into a coma, he vaguely remembered that the group of ninjas went north after they succeeded.

He searched carefully to the north.

After a long time, he found a little trace.

"Damn it. These ninjas are too cautious. This trace will disappear in a short time. If it's not that he didn't happen to die, and the village discovers the problem and then sends ninjas to search, then there will be no traces." Kensuke I hate it secretly.

Next, Kensuke left a signal for the reinforcements in the village, and seized the time to continue tracking towards the north.

A few kilometers to the north of Kensuke, more than thirty Konoha elites dressed as wandering ninjas are resting.

The leader said to the person next to him: "Third brother, what's going on?"

The third child said: "Boss, that person is five kilometers away, follow, and is searching for the clues we left behind. Counting the time, the person he sent to contact Longin Village is almost here."

The boss nodded, and then said to the other person: "Lao Qi, the clues should be more concealed. My request is: the person behind can't be found, but his reinforcements can be found."

Lao Qi nodded and said, "Understood."

In this way, under the guidance of these Konoha elites, Kensuke and the leader of Taki Ninja Village, who later came to personally reinforce them, finally followed their footsteps into the Land of Earth with difficulty.

"Boss, it's really Iwa Shinobi." Kensuke looked in the direction of Land of Earth with a look of despair.

The leader of Taki Ninja Village also had an ugly face. Although he had expected it, he still felt dizzy when the truth was in front of him.

"Keep chasing," said the leader.

Qian Jie was startled, hesitated for a moment and said: "Boss, it's too dangerous, in case Yan Yan bears the thought of silence..."

The leader said: "Don't worry, we won't go deep, just to confirm again."

Kensuke and others were helpless.

In this way, Taki Shinobu and his party went a short distance further in the direction of the Land of Earth.

Then they lost track of Konoha and his party.

Just when the leader was about to give up, the last scout ninja returned with a strange expression on his face.

He said: "Leader, go and have a look."

The leader, Kensuke and others were puzzled, but they still walked towards the place pointed by the man.

After a while, the group came to the edge of a rock.I saw a wooden sign on the rock, which said: The target person is [-] kilometers away to the north. The opponent has long-range reconnaissance capabilities. It is recommended not to approach the opponent within five kilometers.

The leader of Taki Ninja and his subordinates looked at each other in blank dismay.

Qian Jie couldn't help but said: "Boss, is there any fraud in this?"

The leader smiled wryly and said, "There must be fraud. We were obviously used as guns. Neither the group of ninjas in front nor the ninja who left us clues have any good intentions towards us."

Qian Jie hesitated, and asked: "Boss, are we still chasing?"

The leader gritted his teeth and said, "Keep chasing, but don't chase too hard. I want to see. What does this man want us to see when he leads us over?"
