Chapter 209: Dried persimmon ghost shark and Uchiha Itachi
Chapter 209 Dried Persimmon Kisame and Uchiha Itachi
A huge horror descended, causing Troy to tremble and sweat dripped down his face.
What's this? There was only one thought in his mind.
In the thick white fog, it is not a 'lantern' at all, but the eyes of some kind of huge creature.
That huge creature stuck out its tongue, it was the tongue of a snake.
The dense fog around was squeezed away with the action of the giant snake, allowing Troy to finally see the true face of the giant snake.
The blue transparent body allows people to see the internal structure of the giant snake clearly, as if it is a boa constrictor formed by the convergence of water.
Inside the blue transparent giant snake, there are two huge square shurikens, which are exactly the huge shurikens that Troy threw out before.
"Damn it!"
Suppressing the terror in his heart, Troy cursed in a low voice.
When encountering such an unreasonable monster, his first thought was to run away.
Judging from the opponent's characteristics, his magnetic escape is useless against this strange snake.
This is a powerful pressure beyond common sense, making every hair on his body tremble and stand on end.
That is an emotion derived from the depths of my heart—fear!
While Troy jumped backwards, the giant python stretched its body on the sea, swung its tail violently, and fell fiercely against Troy's body.
There were extremely violent waves on the sea surface, and the fishing boat was shattered, turning into pieces of wood, floating on the sea surface, and drifting away into the distance.
"Ahem!"
Troy floated up from the sea covered in blood, and spit out a big mouthful of blood from his mouth.
Looked at the giant python with terrified eyes, met those cold blood pupils without the slightest emotion, and trembled again.
Can't go on like this anymore, he has no resistance to this huge creature.
The opponent just rolls his body in the sea, and he can create a power not weaker than the powerful water escape technique.
On the sea, it is the opponent's domain.
Confusedly thinking about how to escape from here, fighting the giant snake, seeing no hope of victory.
While he was thinking, Troy suddenly saw a long dark shadow appearing under his feet.
Oops! Troy jumped up again, trying to get out of range of the attack.
The giant snake's tail flew up from the sea water, swept away the obstacles of sea water and white mist, and landed on Troy's back with incomparable accuracy.
Let out a heart-piercing scream, his body fell into the sea, and the rolled up waves of more than ten meters high swallowed Troy's seriously injured and blood-stained body and disappeared.
The giant snake glanced at the surface of the sea. In the distance, there was a fierce thunder flashing on the surface of the sea. One of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Ringo Yuri, was fighting the rest of the Yunyin ninjas there.
With the same powerful posture of crushing opponents, there is no need to worry about whether you can win.
The giant snake twisted its head, and its huge body dived silently into the sea water. The two blood-red eyes were like phantoms, and the hazy bubbles spread out in the sea water, swimming towards Troy.
Above this sea, it is completely the domain of giant snakes.
Facing Troy, who was constantly sinking into the deep sea, the giant snake opened its huge mouth mercilessly at his seriously injured body, and swallowed it in one bite.
By the time he swam out from the bottom of the sea, the dense fog on the sea surface had dissipated. Ringo Yuyuri walked over slowly holding Rai Dao Ya.
The battle over there also ended at the same time. None of the dozen or so Yunyin ninjas was an opponent of Hayashi Uyuri, and she eliminated them in twos and twos.
The giant snake sticks out the letter with its tongue, and there is a file bag on the tongue letter, which is something that Yunyin Ninja got from Wuyin Ninja.
Lin Yuyuli took the file bag that recorded the information of the Kirigakure ninja, opened it and looked at it, his brows frowned, and the murderous look in his eyes became more intense.
Many of the ninjas recorded on it are her old acquaintances, not just Anbu, but the rest of the ninja information in the village has also been leaked.
Fortunately, he came back from the chase. If this information is leaked to the ninjas in the outer village, it will be a huge blow to Wuyin Village.
"Then we just need to wait for Yakura's actions. I hope there won't be any more troubles there."
Lin Heyuyuri sighed.
If Kirigakure continues to toss like this, sooner or later he will become the bottom ninja village of the five major countries.
The giant snake was not very interested in Lin Yuyuli's worries. It just swam back into the sea and headed towards the Kingdom of Thunder.
The Yunyin ninja was wiped out, and the senior management of Yunyin Village will definitely not remain indifferent. There will definitely be a search force to contact the Kirigakure ninja again.
Its next task is to block the cloud hidden ninjas who are going to the country of water again in the southern waters of the country of thunder.
To avoid getting Yun Yin involved, another accident might happen.

"Yunyin seems to be ready. Once the resistance forces in the village are cleared, it will be Konoha's turn to establish the prestige of Gokage for me, the future Mizukage of the fourth generation."
In a tall water tower in Wuyin Village, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the holder of the big sword and shark muscle, Xiguashan Puffer Ghost said so.
With a strong and mighty body, just standing there is enough to form a strong oppressive force.
"However, is this really good? Let the people of Yunyin know the information about the ninjas in our village?"
The holder of the blunt knife and douwa who returned to the village in charge of connecting with the cloud hidden ninja, Totsukusa Yebaito frowned.
Honestly speaking, he felt that his colleague Puffer Ghost was too self-willed.
Although the strength is indeed one of the best among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, he doesn't like the opponent's character very much.
"I'm also thinking about the village. If the rotten third generation is allowed to dominate the village, the village will be in a state of doom in the future. Those guys who don't obey us can just be wiped out from the world. Kill the leader, and the people below will be more honest."
The blowfish ghost said so.
There was an extremely cruel light in his eyes.
"Well, anyway, it's enough to kill people when the time comes, right?"
Tong Kusano Bairen also grinned, revealing a bloodthirsty smile.
The reason why he cooperated with Puffer Ghost was because he liked the feeling of smashing people to death with a hammer.
As for other things, he doesn't want to deal with them. Political matters are too troublesome.
"However, Loquat Shizang, are you still unwilling to contact us?"
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen are not working together.
Puffer Ghost understood this from the start.
It's just that he wants to recruit more powerful ninjas in the village to become his minions.
The owner of the beheading sword, Loquat Juzo, is the target he wants to recruit.
"That guy Tozo is not interested in our affairs, and he doesn't want to participate in the struggle in the village. He took his cronies to the border patrol, and he will come back after the fourth Mizukage selection meeting."
Tong Kusano Bairen answered.
"What a gutless guy. Forget it, even this kind of gutsy guy will come in handy sooner or later. It's a pity that the long knife, sewing needle, explosive knife, and spray were taken away by Konoha Renin Hinata Ayane, and their whereabouts are still unknown. Otherwise, we can add two powerful combat forces here."
The blowfish ghost said so.
"Kurisara Kushimaru and Murashi Jinpachi? Those two guys are no longer a "ruthless duo". They chase after a sick person, and they can be killed, and the important ninja sword is taken away. It is really embarrassing for us Ninja Seven."
Tong Kuasano sneered disdainfully.
"Anyway, they were also our companions in the past. Compared with the missing explosive swords and long swords, the double-knife flatfish collected by the ghost lamp family is a good target. I plan to let my subordinate Kisame become the user of the double-knife flatfish in the future. His chakra is huge, which is very suitable for that ninja sword."
The blowfish ghost glanced at the boy standing not far behind him.
Dark blue hair, a shark-like face, a taller body, and a strong type.
"Oh? You mean this brat? Is he as powerful as you said? Is he qualified to be on an equal footing with me? He's not a third-rate bastard, he can become a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen."
Tong Kusano Baito looked suspiciously at the boy named 'Kimame'.
"Don't underestimate Kisame. Although he is young, he has great potential in the future. It is more than enough to master the double sword and flounder."
Puffer ghosts are full of confidence in their subordinates.
"Hmph, it's up to you, anyway, I don't think such a brat can be so powerful."
The other party is so young, and the puffer fish ghost thinks that he can join the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
Also in his teens, he joined the ranks of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, exerting the power of Raito and Kiba to the extreme, and his destructive power ranks among the top three among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
If she grows up for a few more years, it is not impossible to become the strongest ninja sword seven.
Unfortunately, he died in an internal political struggle.
It's all due to her being too powerful, and her severe rejection of the Blood Mist faction led to the birth of such a tragedy.
When people think of her, they will only know that she is a Lei Dun genius who died of a serious illness.
These dark histories will only sink forever.
"However, there is one thing to note. The Ghost Lantern Clan belongs to the previous Mizukage family. Their strength is extraordinary. It is best not to offend them too much, especially at this critical moment."
After saying this, Tong Kusano Bairen left the water tower with a blunt knife on his shoulder.
"This guy is still out of gregarious as always, but because of this, he is not a threat to me. He is really a simple-minded guy."
Although he was complaining about the character of Totsukusa Nobaitou, the puffer ghost doesn't hate to cooperate with such a person.
This kind of idiot with not very bright mind is the easiest to control.
If every collaborator is as smart as a monkey, that's the last thing he wants to see.
The more idiots like this, the better.
"Is this really good?"
Kisame, who had been silent at the side, suddenly spoke.
"What do you mean, Kisame?"
The blowfish ghost asked rhetorically.
"Cooperation with Yunyin."
"Don't worry, the information given to them is all about the ninjas who are hostile to me. I won't be so stupid as to give them the information about your important subordinates. Moreover, all the actions taken are beheadings. As long as the opposition crowd is leaderless, it will be enough. By then, it will be very easy to control the lower ninjas."
Puffer ghost didn't notice the strange look in Kisame's eyes, and talked there.
"Yeah?"
"That's right. Didn't you say that you worshiped the Seven Ninja Swordsmen before you came to serve under my command? When I become the Fourth Mizukage, I will negotiate with the Ghost Lamp Clan and ask them to give you the dual swords and flounder plaice for your use, fulfilling your long-cherished desire to hold ninja swords. At that time, you will become my right-hand man and manage this village together."
The blowfish ghost stood on the high place of the water tower, looking down at the entire Wuyin Village, and said to the ghost shark.
No, not like that. Guixiong said silently in his heart, vetoing Puffer Ghost's evaluation of him.
I think the puffer ghost doesn't understand his own heart at all.
The reason why he worships the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and wants to join them is definitely not because he wants to become a ninja who follows the interests of the betrayed village.
It's because the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are the face of Wuyin Village, heroes who have made countless contributions to the stability of Wuyin Village, so he yearns for such an existence.
And I hope that one day, I will become a hero who guards the village like this.
But...the puffer fish ghost's choice now is undoubtedly a betrayal of the village, a "traitor" of the village.
The sincere feelings that I once yearned to follow the Seven Ninja Swords gradually disappeared, and I even began to doubt whether it was really right for me to follow such a person?
He originally thought that the Blood Mist faction only represented the extremist forces in the village, and the essence was to hope that the village would become stronger and stronger... However, he couldn't agree with what the puffer ghost is doing now.
Even so, the other party is also his boss.
Kisame was full of confusion, and began to doubt the correctness of her own existence.
In any case, it is impossible to call it 'correct' to betray your companion's information, or the behavior of betraying your companion.
After death, you must go to hell.

Yunyin Village, a village built between towering mountains, filled with clouds and mists, the sky always echoed with dull thunder.
In the office of Raikage Building, came the surprised voice of the Fourth Raikage:
"What, the Troy team that contacted Kirigakure Ninja lost contact? What's going on?"
"Sorry, Raikage-sama, we are also wondering about this matter, but the Troy team who left the village for five days did not reply at all. They should have returned two days ago."
Yunyin Jonin, who came to report this matter, also shook his head helplessly, saying that he didn't know why the Troy team hadn't returned.
"Could it be that the people of Kirigakure are playing tricks? They made a deal with us on the surface, and then gave us a knife in the backhand?"
Fourth Raikage guessed so.
"It cannot be concluded from this, Raikage-sama."
The one speaking was a girl with dark skin.
The name is Mabui. Although he is only fifteen years old, he is already one of the best Chunin in the village. Not only has he learned Yunyin's secret technique of time and space, he is also good at assisting management, and he has a flexible mind.
Recommended by Yun Yin Shang Nindodai, he serves as the personal secretary of the Fourth Raikage and advises the Fourth Raikage.
"If it wasn't for Kirigakure's people, how could the Troy team disappear? Moreover, only we and Kirigakure's people know about this matter."
Fourth Raikage thinks so.
"I don't rule out this hypothesis, but if you want to know the truth of the matter, let's go both ways. Continue to send people to contact the Puffer Ghost on Watermelon Mountain in Wuyin, and then investigate the reason for the disappearance of the Troy team."
However, Mabui didn't have any expectations about investigating the Troy team.
Although the land of thunder and the land of water are separated by only one sea area, this sea area is a rare uninhabited area, and the investigation is extremely difficult. If they disappeared there, this matter may become an unsolved case.
"In this case, let the other team do the contact with the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost."
Fourth Raikage thought about it and found it feasible. Even if they wanted to investigate, they had to find out the specific reasons and collect information slowly to find out the specific reasons for Troy's disappearance.
"By the way, you can't forget to keep an eye on Konoha, especially the yellow flash. You must be careful. I will leave this matter to you, Azabui."
Fourth Raikage said solemnly.
"Yes, Raikage-sama."
Azabui nodded. Although she has just come into contact with this job, she has already adapted to this position. Give her a period of time to get used to it, and she can help the Fourth Raikage manage the village better.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed, October.
Itachi was walking in the Uchiha tribe with a baby in his arms, with a soft smile on his face from time to time.
In July, his mother Uchiha Mikoto gave birth to a healthy younger brother—the baby he is holding in his arms right now.
The younger brother's name is Sasuke, Uchiha Sasuke.
It is said that it has the same name as the father of the third Hokage Hiruzaru Sarutobi. Obviously, the name Sasuke represents the parents' very earnest expectations for the future of this child, and he will become a great ninja.
After becoming an older brother, Itachi felt that a certain emotion in his heart was suddenly lit up. It was different from the family affection of his parents, and it was a more special emotion.
At the same time, he also has to take on the responsibility of protecting his younger brother and live on as a real elder brother.
For this reason, he needs to become stronger, and only by becoming stronger can he guard all of this.
Become Hokage and change this pessimistic world in the eyes of the world.
However, today he wants to spend some time with his younger brother.
"Sasuke..."
Itachi gently stroked Sasuke's flushed cheeks, and couldn't help but smile.
Then, he sensed someone approaching him.
The voice of that person is very familiar:
"Are you... Itachi?"
Itachi turned his head and saw a face as immature as his own. It was a girl with long black hair and moles of tears under the corners of her eyes.
She is called Izumi Uchiha, and like herself, she is a member of the Uchiha clan.
"Sure enough it's you. Do you remember me?"
Quan's tone sounded very happy, and a sweet smile spread across his face.
That day Itachi defeated many peers with a stone, which left a deep memory in her memory.
Especially the other party is the son of the head of the Uchiha clan. Although he has not yet entered school, the name of genius has been faintly spread in the clan.
"Sorry, I'm not interested in ninja games."
Itachi thought that Izumi was here to invite him to play some ninja game, so he refused directly without even thinking about it.
For him, if he has time to play ninja games, it is better to spend time on cultivation and improve his own strength.
The so-called ninja game, besides wasting time, he couldn't think of any other important meaning.
"Itachi, you are not good at communicating with people."
Quan didn't get angry, just smiled.
"Because there is no need."
"It's not necessary? How could it be unnecessary? Isn't it the most important thing for everyone to have fun together?"
Izumi looked at Itachi in puzzlement.
In her eyes, the most important experience is that partners work hard to do one thing seriously and get happiness.
“…I just think it’s a waste of time.”
Itachi tells the truth.
"Itachi, you are really strange. I often watch you practice alone in the forest. Wouldn't that be boring?"
Quan asked.
"No, working hard to improve myself is something I feel happy about."
Itachi refuted Izumi's point of view.
"But, Itachi, you are already very strong."
"No, not enough."
Far from enough.
Cultivation is very hard and tiring, and it will make my body exhausted... However, every time I think of the ninja battlefield like Shura hell, and want to stop that kind of battle, this power is not enough.
He wants to become a better ninja than anyone else, so that he can use his own power to stop the war from happening.
With such a grand goal, even though the cultivation is very hard and tiring, I feel happy and happy, and I don’t feel tired.
"I see."
Quan thought for a while, then nodded in understanding.
Since the other party feels that it is very happy to practice alone, it would be impolite for him to continue entangled in such a topic.
Then she set her eyes on Sasuke in Itachi's arms.
"Is this Itachi your sister? So cute."
Izumi approached.
"It's not my sister, it's my brother."
Itachi corrected Quan's wrong name.
Quan's face turned red: "This, so, I thought he was a girl like me. Well, can I give him a hug?"
Looked over with expectant eyes.
Itachi hesitated for a moment, and when he was about to hand Sasuke to Izumi's hug, suddenly Sasuke's flushed face twitched, and he burst into tears, as if he was very reluctant to be hugged by others.
"Sorry, it seems that Sasuke doesn't like you very much."
"..."
"There is nothing else, I will go first. Goodbye."
"..."
Itachi ignored Izumi's sluggish face, hugged Sasuke and left straight away.
What a strange girl. Itachi thought to himself.
What happened in the afternoon was just an insignificant episode to Itachi, and Itachi soon forgot about it.
For Itachi, Uchiha Izumi is not a particularly memorable existence.
After dinner, both father Uchiha Fugaku and mother Uchiha Mikoto went out, and only him and his younger brother Sasuke were at home.
Open the door, go to the corridor and sit down.
The watery moonlight shrouded like a veil, and the bright light was more dazzling than ever.
Itachi hugged his younger brother Sasuke like this, and began to admire the moonlight in the corridor.
Not long after, the refreshing night breeze with a hint of warmth gently brushed Itachi's cheeks.
"?"
Itachi raised his head and still stared at the bright moon hanging in the night sky. The moonlight was still dazzling, pale and eerie.
