Starting from the root of Konoha, he was the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 13 Kato Dan, the art of spiritual transformation! (Seeking follow-up recommendation votes and monthly tickets)

"You will act alone on this mission."

"The target is the Fire Nation noble Gosami Naoki!"

Danzo personally informed Xingxia Xiu about the mission situation: "He is against Konoha's expansion of power, but now other ninja villages are engaged in military expansion. Intelligence shows that all major ninja villages are accelerating the research of Jinchūriki."

"There's no need for such a hindrance to exist."

Xing Xiaxiu, with his head bowed, immediately said, "I understand. I will send him to reunite with his ancestors."

Danzo emphasized: "You are carrying out the mission as a sky ninja, and you must not reveal your identity as a member of Konoha."

Xing Xiaxiu immediately assured: "Understood!"

Assassinating one's own nobles is definitely a dark and dirty task.

If his identity is exposed, Konoha will be in big trouble.

"You only have three days, and after three days you will need to lead the team to carry out another mission."

Danzo turned around and said, "Go!"

Xingxia Xiu used the instant body technique and disappeared.

After returning to his residence and taking the scroll of the Wood Release secret technique, Hoshita Hide left Konoha Village alone and traveled overnight.

Twelve o'clock at midnight.

Xingxia Xiu arrived at the Daimyo's Mansion in the Land of Fire, and then found an inn to rest under the guise of a merchant from the Land of the Moon.

He got up at seven the next morning, and then used the technique of transformation to assume different identities and conduct reconnaissance around the residence of the target person, Goshin Naoki.

The protection situation of the Five Gods Zhihui and the surrounding terrain.

retreat route.

Possible interceptions.

After all, this is the capital of the Fire Nation's Daimyo, the political and economic center of the entire Fire Nation.

In addition to a large number of samurai, there are also ninjas.

Some of these ninjas were daimyo, guests kept by noble ministers, and some were ninjas from Konoha.

For Xingxia Xiu, all ninjas, including those from Konoha, could become trouble for him.

Especially the ninjas of Konoha, they are relatively stronger, and you might encounter a Jonin.

So, Xingxiaxiu spent a whole day preparing.

When night fell, Xingxia Xiu, after eating and drinking his fill, turned into a homeless man and came to the vicinity of Wu Shen Zhihui's residence.

An hour later, Gokami Naoki returned home under the escort of six warriors.

Xing Xiaxiu did not take action halfway, even if he could succeed quickly, it would make a lot of noise.

So, after Goshin Naoki returned home, he sneaked into Goshin Naoki's house under the cover of night.

Xingxiaxiu was already very familiar with this place, and she walked easily to the yard where Wushen Zhihui's bedroom was located.

There were a total of eight guards outside the bedroom, two outside the yard, two on the roof, and four outside the bedroom door.

In the bedroom, Goshin Naoki was playing hide-and-seek with two women.

shhhhh!

Two Senbon swords shot out from the darkness and accurately hit the throats of the two warriors guarding outside the courtyard gate.

Immediately afterwards, the two warriors who fell down while holding their throats were caught by Xingxia Xiu's two shadow clones. With a twist of their necks, they were killed with two snaps.

Bang!
The gate of the courtyard exploded, and two shadow clones rushed into the courtyard with knives.

"who?"

"assassin!"

"Be careful, it's a ninja!"

Shouts rang out one after another, followed by shrill screams.

In the bedroom, Wu Shen Zhihui, who was having fun, was frightened and instantly became limp.

The two women screamed in fright. Wu Shen Zhihui didn't even bother to put on his clothes. He used his hands and feet to run straight into the secret room.

There is a passage in the secret room where you can escape!

Just as he opened the door of the secret room, Xing Xia Xiu appeared behind him, grabbed his hair with one hand and lifted him up.

"You...who are you?"

"If you dare to kill me, the Fire Nation will not let you go!"

Wushen Zhihui turned his eyes, but could not see the person behind him.

Xingxia Xiu smiled lightly: "Sorry, I am from the Land of Fire." Goshin Zhihui widened his eyes: "You are from Konoha!"

Xing Xiaxiu said: "Some of your recent remarks were not appropriate, but words cannot be taken back. I can only send you to the Pure Land."

"As for the Daimyo...without solid evidence, will the Fire Country Daimyo hold Konoha accountable for your death?"

"Furthermore, this kind of thing is clearly an act by hostile forces to drive a wedge between Konoha and the Daimyo Prefecture."

Goshin Naoki wanted to roar, but before he could make a sound, Xingxia Xiu broke his neck.

As for the two women, they had already crawled out of the bedroom and did not hear this conversation.

When Xingxia Xiu went out, the other warriors under Wushen Zhihui just arrived. Xingxia Xiu jumped onto the roof and then used the instant body technique to retreat.

The warriors pursued relentlessly.

In the dark night, on the bustling streets, the news of Wu Shen Zhihui's assassination spread rapidly.

At a street food stall, three Konoha ninjas were feasting on their food when suddenly a figure flying across the roof and the samurai rushing in pursuit attracted their attention.

Soon, the discussions around them reached their ears.

Sora Ninja!

Assassination!

The three of them looked at each other, and Kato Dan, the captain, immediately jumped up.

The other two followed suit after leaving their money on the table.

Under the moonlight, three figures leaped across the roof at an extremely fast speed and soon overtook the pursuing warriors.

Xing Xiaxiu looked back and his eyes suddenly jumped.

That guy looks familiar!
That blue hair... Kato Toru?

No, it's Kato Dan!
This guy is a bit dangerous!

Xing Xiaxiu's heartbeat quickened slightly.

He didn't know whether Kato Dan had mastered the art of spiritualization, but he had to be on guard.

Now he is a fake air ninja, it would be hilarious if he were to be killed by the spirit transformation technique.

So he bent his body, dived down from the roof, and entered a dark alley.

In the alley, Xingxiaxiu's body split into three.

There were two shadow clones, one pretending to be the real body and continuing to retreat out of the Daimyo's mansion, while the other left hand seals to prepare to perform ninjutsu.

However, Xingxia Xiu's real body raised one hand, leaned against the wooden wall, and merged into the wall.

Kato Dan and the other two followed closely.

But the three did not rush into the dark alley immediately. Instead, a flash grenade fell first.

The flash bomb exploded, and the dark alley was as bright as day.

But it did not affect Xing Xiaxiu. He had already closed his eyes, expecting a flash bomb to come first.

Because if it were him, he would do the same.

The seal has been completed, and when he opened his mouth and exhaled, a surge of air flowed out.

Wind Escape-Big Breakthrough!
The light in the dark alley was fading. Kato Dan and the other two jumped into the alley, but were swept by the strong wind and their bodies stopped in mid-air.

The light dimmed, Xingxia Xiu opened his eyes, leaped up, and with a flash of sword, he rushed straight towards Kato Dan.

Clang!

Sparks flew everywhere, and Kato Dan, who was holding a kunai, changed color and flew backwards involuntarily.

The knife is too heavy!
"team leader!"

The other two Konoha ninjas were shocked that Kato Dan, a senior ninja, was chopped away.

Kato Dan flipped over and landed smoothly, shouting a warning: "Be careful, he's very powerful!"

As he finished speaking, Xingxia Xiu had already finished his battle with the other two Konoha ninjas.

Each of them was hit by a knife and a kick. Xingxia Xiu was also kicked away. When his body landed on the ground, it exploded into a cloud of smoke with a bang.

"Clone..."

The two Konoha ninjas were stunned. The clones were so powerful that they could hold their own against three of them.

"Stop chasing!"

Kato Dan shouted softly: "I will use the spirit transformation technique!"

He used the spiritualization technique to track, which made him faster.
