The double blades of the thunder knife were crossed above the head, and the chakra spread into the air, echoing the thunder clouds in the sky. A bright silver lightning fell, centered on the thunder knife raised by Black Hoe Lei Ya, and radiated to the surroundings.
Compared with the previous attack, this attack was undoubtedly much more powerful. A group of mermaids who had estimated the power of ninjutsu underwater and the giant beasts they were driving were all hit by lightning. They suddenly lost control of their bodies, and some even weak ones The baby had already surfaced with his belly turned inside out.
Fortunately, these guys whose average strength is relatively weak, coming to intercept Black Hoe Thunder Fang are not reckless and foolish.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
They could no longer control their bodies. Some kind of obscure power within their bodies became active as their autonomous consciousness became scattered, and they took over control of their bodies.
According to the preset plan, several leaders who were still capable of counterattack began to form seals, controlling the power in themselves and their subordinates that was originally one but was separated, and began to resonate and communicate.
Soon, a silver snake's halo appeared on the body, converging on the chest, and the back was like a pierced tunnel. Liquid with sparkling glass-colored lines flowed out. Under the connection of the same source, it quickly merged into a body that was close to the body. A giant gelatinous monster twenty meters high.
The newly appeared behemoth, with a cold air all over its body, waved its huge arms, spread out its large translucent hands like a cage, and slapped Black Hoe Lei Ya hard on the head.
In desperation, he drove the thunder knife to counterattack, and the ball lightning aroused did not even have the effect of delaying the opponent's attack, and the caster was suppressed underwater.
The Mist Ninja, who had long been accustomed to water battles, did not worry too much. He thought of escaping as soon as possible through his skillful use of water, and then attack with force after knowing the strength of the enemy. However, he suddenly felt that the astonishing cold air came over him, and half of his body was frozen. , if he hadn't relied on his strong will to use water escape to escape along the rapids, he would probably have become a lifeless piece of frozen meat.
"Ice escape?" Not quite, but too cold. For such a cold water escape, I am afraid that only the northern ice and snow country can have such a technology. Is it a rebellious ninja from the Land of Snow, or a fish that slipped through the net of the Minazuki family? 』
Black Hoe Raiya, who still wears the title of Mist Ninja, does have a reason to be attacked. He has offended many people in the past. This time, he took advantage of the opportunity to hunt down Loquat Juzo and went out for some exercise, and finally got rid of it. Chunyu's spy, Yuri Lin, who coveted the thunder knife, was not nearby either. He didn't expect that there was a suspicious figure watching him.
It's normal to try to alert someone and test the other person's identity, but this kind of reaction is too intense.
"The strength is not weak. Is it possible that some rebel ninja is eyeing Thunder Sword?" 』
The attacker's individual strength is very limited. With his skillful combined attack skills and several secret techniques that seem ordinary but have great combat power when combined, he can even defeat the seven Ninja Swordsmen who are not used to it.
After struggling to distance themselves and retreating steadily on the waves, Black Hoe Lei Ya took a few breaths and suddenly realized something, put away his weapon, and turned around to leave.
The attackers, who were watching eagerly underwater, also began to gather the wounded, and under the cover of the giant water monster, they left this place of right and wrong.
After the storm calmed down, a figure carrying a decapitating sword came here. After checking the chakra aura around him, he looked in the direction where the Black Hoe Thunder Fang had left.
"The green-haired guy, I don't know if he is helping me or hurting me. 』
On the surface, Black Hoe Lei Ya was assisting the assassination team in hunting down Loquat Juuzang, but he was not very dedicated. He even misled Chunyu and Lin Yuri's judgment, allowing Loquat Juuzang to successfully escape to the country of Sichuan.
But to say that Black Hoe Raiga would give in because they were once among the Seven First Generation Ninja Swordsmen and had a comradeship, that would be to overestimate the relationship between the Kiri Ninjas.
Even the users of the seven legendary weapons of the Communist Konoha ninjas in the Third Ninja War are not monolithic.
When they jointly attacked Konoha Village, they were defeated by Matt Dai's eight-door armor formation. The seven people turned into three people. It was not that those who survived were stronger, but Black Hoe Lei Ya, Loquat Juzo and Xigua Shan. Seeing that the situation was not going well, the pufferfish ghost took the lead and ran away. The remaining four movements were one step slower, which made the Eight Gate Dunjia forbidden technique famous.
Fight with the weak, strike hard, and run away when encountering the strong.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen are not cowards who are afraid of challenges. To expect them to cooperate sincerely and have any team spirit is to think too much.
A mist ninja who doesn't betray his comrades is already a very conscientious mist ninja. A madman who comes out of the blood mist cannot expect anything more.
The Black Hoe Thunder Fang covered Loquat Juzo's escape, and I'm afraid he also had the idea of taking the opportunity to get out of Mizukage's sight.
However, the forces that fought against the Black Hoe Thunder Fang before were too suspicious. They were obviously not the Mist Ninja assassination force, nor were they Konoha Ninjas or Sand Ninjas.
Harassing and intercepting Black Hoe Thunderfang, seemingly to lure him away from a certain place.
Thinking of this, Loquat Juuzang realized that there didn't seem to be any great force in the direction where the few people were heading, but...
"The mysterious organization that secretly said it wanted to recruit me seems to have no further information. Has it given up? 』
Wearing a black-bottomed red cloud royal robe, the master whose identity is unknown and who exudes a dangerous aura seems to be also active in the Kingdom of Sichuan.
"If they are really capable, it's okay to go and have a look. Pursuing soldiers is too troublesome. The purpose of Black Hoe Thunder Fang is also unclear, so we can't count on it. 』
The thunderclouds in the sky dispersed, and Loquat Juzo also headed north.
Soon, the waves wiped away all traces of the battle.
In Konoha Village, one suddenly felt the rapid depletion of chakra in his body. As a reserve of power, most of Umibozu's body followed the summons of the psychic contract and descended into the distance, making Gusugi Bosui realize that a certain mermaid team When you are in trouble, you start to use your cards.
Fortunately, after more than ten minutes, the trend of borrowed power was reversed, and streams of pure chakra began to return with profit. Although the speed was very slow, it was estimated that it would take a week to replenish it, but in the end, it was a profit.
Relying on Umibozu's contractual connection, Kosugi Bushui felt a little relieved after sensing that the number of contractors had not decreased, but was just a little weak.
There are not many talents at hand now, and every combat force that can be put to use is important.
As long as he is not dead, with the strong vitality of the mermaid, he can recover in a few days of rest.
After this incident, those second-generation mermaids whose IQs were not too high have strengthened their belief in the God of Rivers. The one who benefited the most was Umibozu, and the controller Gushan Bushui also made money.
"The so-called gods are actually banks that use chakra as 'currency' to lend money, right?"
The price is fair, the person is honest, and he is quite generous when lending it out, but if the debt is not paid, the "collection" will be unforgettable.
A certain goddess who helped Gushan Bu Shui stabilize the chakra transmission channel responded naturally:
"Isn't this a matter of course? There is a limit to tapping the potential within. If you want to go further, you must naturally ask for it from the outside. Either cooperate with Tianhe and use the power of the world to reach higher levels, or indirectly exploit native life and strengthen yourself."
The principles are the same, but good and evil are distinguished based on the means.
Even if the Mangekyou Sharingan is so arrogant, if it wants to go further, it can only do so by plundering the child power of close relatives. The Rinnegan, Byakugan and the like are similar.
"If you can't do it yourself, why don't you find someone to combine with and make progress together? But we still need to have a good battle over who will take the lead."
Gu Shan Bu Shui shrugged understandingly.
The well-informed young governor, what doesn’t he know?
Saiyan fusion, Combo Kong, Digimon fusion evolution, Ultraman fusion summon, Gourd King Kong...
There are many, many more. If one of them doesn't work, put them together and put them on your shoulders.
In the Fourth Ninja World War, there were also combined ultimate moves such as Majestic Equipment: Xuzuo Nenghu, Flying Thunder God: Mutual Riding Explosive Talisman, and Immortal Technique: The Art of Two Lives.
Even the curse seal and the reincarnation of the corpse are actually the method of combining forces through plunder.
Soon, Danzo Shimura will realize the advantages of this broad path. With both the power of the first generation and Sharingan, he will be able to get rid of aging, return to the top, and even go further.
If Gushan Bu Shui wants to become stronger, continuing to imitate water escape and occasionally studying forbidden techniques is another way to go.
Of course, if you want to be quite "persuasive", relying on talent and "financial ability" is not enough.
Otsutsuki Kaguya seemed to notice the teasing tone in Furugi Fusui's tone, and said dissatisfiedly:
"Are you trying to say that the Jinchuuriki, including me, are also 'hybrids' with no real abilities? The so-called becoming stronger by one's own talent is actually just that. If you don't think so, you can stop.' The guise of "God of Rivers" that was brought to the forefront has not yet been activated, and there is room for turning back..."
"How could it be? I'm not a germophobe. I'm so awkward that I won't take shortcuts, but I'm so stubborn that I want to be far away. It's just that I am obsessed with being the mastermind behind the scenes and 'cutting leeks' in my spare time. It seems too slow."
Gu Shan Bu Shui explained,
"Super beings like you, whose life levels have already entered interstellar colonization, and those old monsters from the Holy Land of Psychic Beasts with long lifespans can accumulate slowly. But I can't. My lifespan is only a hundred years, not to mention one generation, just a few years. I think it’s very long.”
Thousands of years of accumulation in the ninja world are enough for the sacred tree to bear fruit once. After such a long time, the bones of Gu Shan Bu Shui will turn into stone.
"It's naturally very slow to expect those ordinary beings. If you can hitch a ride on the trendsetters of the era where you are destined to be, you will be very fast."
"Discuss again, discuss again."
To put it bluntly, is it just a matter of picking up the wool of Destiny Child?
But if Gu Shan Bu Shui had such ability, why would he be so free?
The young governor of the Furusugi clan is not even a Konoha ninja. How can he have any chance of getting involved with Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke and others?
Just as the two were discussing how to become stronger as soon as possible, there was a knock on the door, and Hongye opened the door and walked in.
"Young Master, the special chakra reaction you explained has appeared..."
"Huh? So fast..."
Gu Shan Bu Shui was stunned for a moment, then he immediately came to his senses.
In the past few months, I spent most of my time wandering around Konoha Village. What was my purpose?
The annihilation of the Uchiha clan may happen at any time, but it is still unknown when exactly it will happen.
This year is almost over.
If Uchiha Shisui had just died, the Uchiha family and the Leaf Village had had a quarrel, or even had a small conflict to vent their emotions, they might have been able to hold on for a few more years.
But the result is that the top management of Konoha Village pretends to be deaf and mute, and the Uchiha family only conducts internal purges and does not communicate with the village at all.
At least the communication channels were cut off, and only Uchiha Itachi, who joined the ANBU, could still pass on some news.
The opportunity to take action was Uchiha Itachi's promotion to the ANBU captain.
Before that, there was another important event, which was that Danzo Shimura and Orochimaru reconnected, and a series of taboo experiments were restarted, including the cloning of the first generation cells and the study of wood escape.
Now, Orochimaru is back.
As for how to let Hongye know that Orochimaru is back, it is not difficult.
Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyo Sharingan, one is in Uchiha Itachi and the other is in Shimura Danzo's hand. They have never been separated. But now, the right eye in Shimura Danzo's hand is separated from Shimura Danzo's.
As important as it was before, Gusugi Fusui never believed that Danzo Shimura would let it out of his sight at will.
Transplanting the Mangekyo Sharingan requires first-generation cells to balance its power, and there is no one more experienced than Orochimaru in studying the first-generation cells.
"Sure enough, the entanglement between Orochimaru and Konoha Village has not been completely resolved."
It will take time to study the fusion of the Mangekyou Sharingan and the first-generation cells, but it shouldn't be too long. Plus, it won't be easy to adapt.
After pondering the progress, Gushan Bu Shui ordered Hongye:
"Next, let's focus on Kabuto Yakushi. He is the liaison between Orochimaru and Danzo Shimura. Also, is there any unusual movement on Itachi Uchiha's side?"
"Nothing special, just more busy. When I was at home, apart from giving guidance on Uchiha Sasuke's practice, there was almost no interaction with other people. It was in sharp contrast to the restlessness of other Uchiha people..."
Gu Shan Bu Shui shook his head slightly:
"Basically, all parties have made up their minds. There are some things that cannot be turned back. They haven't started yet, but the preparations are not complete enough. At the same time, they are also looking for each other's weaknesses and preparing for a fatal blow."
It is almost impossible for the two forces, who have become so suspicious of each other that there is almost no communication at all, to reconcile, without strong external pressure.
In addition, there is another piece of information that I don't know if it is important, that is, Uchiha Fugaku, who is nominally high-ranking, but actually has a weak sense of presence. His actions are beginning to be a little unpredictable, and he seems to be making preparations.
Later, Hongye handed over a secret letter sent from home.
The letter written by his father, Masaki Furusugi, contained news that his grandfather was ill, as well as information about the unusual transfer of the guardian ninja.
"Is it at this time?"
After reading it, all the important things were crowded together, which gave Gusugi Fusui a bit of a headache. The daimyo was old, and the guardian nin under his command was ready to take action.
"No, maybe there is a tacit understanding of someone who knows the right time and launches an offensive when others cannot intervene."
