In the Sand Village, the clones are everywhere, and the Arkham game begins

Chapter 100 Spy
Koka City, Uesugi Yu's residence.

"Come, Qingshui brother, try this shark fin soup that I made myself."

A long-haired woman in a kimono gently served Qingshui a bowl of shark fin soup.

"Arigato, Sister Xue."

Qingshui took the soup bowl with both hands and thanked him.

This woman is his cousin, Uesugi Yuki, the eldest daughter of Uesugi Yu. She is only seventeen years old and is a typical Yamato Nadeshiko type of woman.

Uesugi Yu is nearly forty years old. In addition to Uesugi Yuki, he also has a baby son who is still in his arms and is now being held in the arms of his wife.

"This is a family dinner specially prepared for you, Qingshui. Don't be shy."

Uesugi Yu held a glass of sake in his hand and spoke to Kiyomizu in a deep voice.

"I have already ordered people to prepare the things you want, but there are a lot of things. Can you carry them all by yourself?"

"Ah, Uncle San, can you have these things sent to Taoshan?"

After retiring, the former Sound Pillar, Jigoro Kuwashima, lived in seclusion in Momoyama, where he served as an instructor of Thunder Breathing and trained swordsmen.

Qingshui will go there next to learn the Breathing of Thunder.

"Well, is there anything else you need? Tell me everything. The path you've chosen has never been taken by anyone in our family before. Apart from a little money and supplies, the help we elders can provide is really limited."

"There is indeed one thing that I need to trouble Third Uncle and Big Uncle to investigate together."

After saying this, Shimizu smiled apologetically at Uesugi Yuki and others.

"The pork bone soup should be ready. I'll go to the kitchen and check."

Uesugi Yuki immediately understood, even though she didn't know why her father said that her cousin was taking a path that no one in the family had ever taken before.

He's just a policeman. Isn't my uncle the chief inspector of the Shiga Police Headquarters?
Mrs. Uesugi also reacted immediately and said, "The child must be hungry. I will go and give him some milk."

After the three left, Qingshui took out the map.

"Although I didn't meet many people during this month, I did look up a lot of information about the Demon Slayer Corps. Based on my family and other historical books I could collect, I found a clue that may have a significant impact on the Demon Slayer Corps."

Qingshui drew an area on the map.

"The basis of the Demon Slayer Corps' supernatural combat power is the breathing method, which is centered on five breathing methods, but the most primitive and powerful breathing method has been lost. According to my investigation, someone in this area should have passed down the original breathing method in some way."

"You want to find this primitive breathing method and use it as an opportunity to advance in the Demon Slayer Corps?"

Uesugi Yu asked.

“Not exactly. In the Demon Slayer Corps, status is tied to one’s record of killing demons, and that record is often tied to one’s strength.

It just so happens that this breathing method is very strong, and it may be the strongest breathing method. If I can learn it, I may be able to become a high-ranking member of the Demon Slayer Corps at a faster speed. According to some clues I found, this primitive breathing method later evolved into a folk dance called Fire God Kagura. I need your help to find a family with the surname Kamado, and the location should be within this range. They have a connection with the ancestor swordsman who created the breathing method. If there is anyone who passed down the Fire God Kagura, their family is the most likely one. "

Uesugi Yu did not ask Shimizu why he investigated in such detail.

The Ubuyashiki clan has controlled the Demon Slayer Corps for thousands of years and also possesses certain power and connections in the secular world. However, something that the Ubuyashiki clan could not discover was discovered by his own nephew.

His nephew must have some secrets, but who among those who can reach a high position doesn’t have his own secrets?

It is actually a good thing to have such ability.

"After lunch, you and I will go to the post office and call your uncle to see if we can use the household registration files of other police stations to search. If we can't find them, I will send people to investigate this area. However, that is not our Uesugi family's territory, so the efficiency may be lower. You need to be prepared." "I understand."

Qingshui nodded slightly.

……

……

One month is enough time to change a lot.

The incarnation of the Demon Slayer world mastered the Breathing of Wind and embarked on the journey to Momoyama to learn the Breathing of Lightning, while Shimizu in the Naruto world has completely mastered the changes in the nature of Wind Style - the time he announced to the public was one month, but in fact it was seven days.

There is no other way. Other geniuses would need at least two or three months, or even longer. Qingshui's achievement in just one month is already an astonishing achievement.

At the same time, Ye Cang had just begun to cut the water flow, while Maki was still fighting with the leaves.

The wind escape talents of these two people are already top-notch.

If he really told the truth in seven days, Shimizu believed that the Sand Village would not capture him and dissect him, but if this matter got out, then organizations like the Root in other ninja villages would definitely assassinate him at all costs.

"Since you have already learned the nature change of wind escape technique and have mastered puppetry to the point where you can control three puppets, I will put you on the list of special jonin for promotion and submit you to the Sandaime."

Inside the tent, Chiyo looked at Shimizu with a look of satisfaction.

"But... Mr. Chiyo, my combat prowess seems to be a little lacking, right?"

Shimizu asked Chiyo.

Chiyo smiled slightly, shook her head, and took out Shimizu's ninja file.

"Your current mission count is 68 for D-level, 23 for C-level, 63 for B-level, 0 for A-level, and 2 for S-level."

Qingshui was slightly stunned.

The mission indicators required for promotion to Special Jonin are 60 missions above B level and two missions above A level, proving that the ninja is capable of participating in mid- and high-level missions.

Shimizu had managed to qualify for an S-rank mission once before, during the White Fang incident, but how did he get this second one?

"Teacher Chiyo, this..."

"Speaking of this, I have to thank you and Scorpion."

Chiyo handed Shimizu a document with the word "top secret" printed on it, and explained:

"Do you remember Reina, the girl I promoted from the village medical class? I never thought she would be a spy sent by Konoha, and I never thought you would see through Reina's flaws and work with Sasori to find out her details."

It turned out to be the case.

Qingshui flipped through the documents and roughly understood the whole story of the incident.

Hatake Sakumo was injured by the Third Kazekage in a battle last year, but his injuries had healed at least two months ago.

The Konoha Village tried to get Reina, who was a spy, to reveal the personnel transfer data of the Sand Village and information about the Third Kazekage and other high-level officials, and find an opportunity for Hatake Sakumo to lead an ambush and assassinate the Third Kazekage.

This matter was discovered by Sasori, who secretly told Ebizo, so he took advantage of the situation and tried to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate the great enemy Hatake Sakumo in one fell swoop.
