People are in Konoha, scientific achievements are followed by blood

So far, Yayoi can only use the powerful sealing technique of sealing away the corpses, but cannot solve it.

In other words, among the entire Hokage, Orochimaru is the only one who has successfully lifted the zombie sealing technique.

Therefore, Yayoi is also very interested in the literature on the technique of sealing away ghosts.

Moreover, he also has a special feeling for Uzushio Village, the place that is nominally his hometown.

At this time, the night was already dark, and the half-full silver moon had gradually risen to its position in the sky.

The old captain and several sailors had long returned to the cabin where they were resting, and bursts of unrestrained snoring could be heard in the cabin.

Glancing at the ruins in the distance again, Yayoi hesitated for a moment, then stood up suddenly, jumped off the bow, and walked towards the Uzushio Village ruins.

His actions this time were not deliberately hidden from the other three Konoha ninjas.

Therefore, the first time he got off the boat, the three people sleeping in the tent were aware of it.

"Um?!"

In the darkness, a pair of white eyes suddenly opened.

Even in a sleeping state, Hyuga Tokuma was the first to notice the movement outside. The Third Ninja World War brought about battlefield stress reactions, which still affected these ninjas all the time.

Tokuma was about to stand up when a hand suddenly stretched out in the darkness and stopped his movement.

Under the bright moonlight, Hinata Tokuma saw clearly that the person blocking him was Nara Shikaku, who was half lying on the sleeping bag.

Seeing Tokuma looking over, Shikaku half-closed his eyes and explained to him: "This is Yayoi's hometown, so let him remember it alone."

To Konoha, the ruins of Uzushio Village are not considered confidential or secret.The real secrets or secrets had been destroyed or taken away long before the Kingdom of Whirlpool was destroyed.

Aburame Muta also nodded in agreement. He, who was responsible for keeping watch, had already known what was going on on the ship through the insects.

Yayoi's actions were within the scope of their tacit approval.

"All right……"

Since the partners are all on the same page, there is nothing to say between Hyuga and Tokoku.

Yayoi also ignored the movement in the tent, passed the three people, and walked into the dark ruins.

……

The moonlight is very bright tonight, illuminating the surrounding area.

After getting closer, the originally dark outline had turned into a specific scene that could be distinguished by the eyes, and Yayoi could see it all.

The location of Whirlpool Village is located at the right mouth of the river on the island, which is similar to a weir island in the middle of the river surrounded by water.

Without human maintenance, changes in river water levels over the past decade or so have caused many building ruins to be submerged under the water.

The ruins still on the land are also covered with weeds and moss. From time to time, there will be sporadic hares, pheasants and wild dogs moving among the ruins and grass.

After glancing around, Yayoi roughly grasped the layout of the ruins, and then headed straight to the core of this small town.

Soon, he found his target, a shrine that was very similar to the Namen Hall in the mountains of the Land of Fire thousands of miles away.

However, this shrine looks more formal than Namendo.

Not only are there parts such as the torii gate, stone steps, stone lanterns, shrine, worship hall, main hall, and gyokuri, but there are also parts such as the shishasha, moshasha, ancient temple, social affairs office, and family members that are not included in the Namido hall.

Yayoi looked at it for a moment, then walked into the torii gate, walked along the shrine, passed through the worship hall, and walked straight to the main hall.

This is the place where symbols of the gods are enshrined in the shrine, and the Namen Hall in the Land of Fire enshrines 27 death masks.

Then, what is enshrined in this shrine of the Uzumaki clan thousands of miles away?

Pushing open the high, half-decayed door of the main hall, a puff of dust and a musty smell hit your nostrils.

Yayoi frowned, waving his hands in front of his nose to drive away the dust, while observing the layout of the main hall.

Sure enough, in the most conspicuous position of this main hall, there is a wooden wall that is no different from that of Namen Hall.

However, the hanging devices on this wooden wall are not 27 like those in Namyeondo, but only eight positions.

Moreover, there is only one suspicious wooden mask hanging on the eight hanging devices.

"..."

Not to mention why this mask can survive the catastrophe that destroyed the village, even the material of the mask itself is not very good.

The 27 masks in Yayoi's hands are made of more than just wood.

He hesitated for a moment, and to be cautious, he used the Shadow Clone Technique to create a shadow clone, and asked the clone to reach out and take off the suspicious wooden mask.

"Um?!"

Nothing happened when he took the mask off, but as soon as he got the mask, he immediately noticed something was wrong.

"This feeling... could it be that this mask is the product of Mu Dun?"

There is a certain difference between the wood produced by Wood Release Ninjutsu and normal wood products. This difference is not obvious, and medical ninjas who are proficient in Palm Senjutsu can detect it to a certain extent.

He took the mask in his hand and immediately noticed the strange vitality contained in it.

After mastering the Wood Release, Yayoi was able to tell that this Death Mask made of Wood Release only took about two months to make.

Turning the mask over, Yayoi found a series of familiar ink snake-shaped lines on the inside of the wooden mask.

"This is..." Yayoi's face looked a little strange.

This is the mark of a sealing technique, and coincidentally, the style of the technique is also familiar to him.

A few years ago, when Yayoi first came to Konoha and cooperated with Orochimaru, in order to show his real value rather than talent and potential, he once taught Orochimaru the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan.

Of course, judging from the development of the original time and space, Orochimaru would sooner or later get the information on these sealing techniques even if he didn't teach them.

After being attacked by a zombie seal that he didn't understand at all, in just two or three years, Uncle Snake had studied this technique more thoroughly than the Uzumaki clan members.

This technique has a strong Orochimaru style and is very similar to the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan. There is no doubt that it comes from Orochimaru, one of the Sannin of Konoha who has a close relationship with Yayoi.

"Things are getting interesting..."

It can be known from the old boat head's previous words that the last time Orochimaru came to the Country of Whirlpool was probably a year ago.

The wooden death mask with Orochimaru's sealing technique in his hand was made two months ago.

In this case, there is only one explanation.

A year ago, Orochimaru secretly visited the Uzushio Village ruins for the purpose of Yayoi's soul-related ghoul sealing technique.After getting something from here, he left silently.

Two months ago, for some purpose, Orochimaru himself or his subordinates returned to this uninhabited island through some unknown means and left this mask behind.

"But why would he do this..."
