Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 777
Hearing the inexplicable male voice, Ye Cang's eyes instantly turned vigilant. She raised her left hand and made a gesture of knuckles, posing in a pose that could trigger Burning Dun at any time.

Then, he turned to the direction where the voice came from.

"Who's there? Come out!"

Ten meters away, the grass under the big tree trembled slightly for a moment. The person in the dark had no intention of hiding, and quickly turned around, facing the two people Ye Cang and Mariko who were full of vigilance.

It was a middle-aged man in a white robe, his skin color was relatively dark, and his body was filled with an inexplicable inhuman quality, and his appearance made Ye Cang feel vaguely familiar.

There was a brief silence in the atmosphere, Ye Cang saw that the man on the opposite side looked calm and seemed to have no intention of making a move, so he opened his lips, ready to say something.

"First, Master Kazekage?"

Unexpectedly, Mariko suddenly had a ghostly look on her face, and her voice was broken. She staggered back half a step, and was almost dragged down by Ye Cang.

"First generation?"

Hearing this name suddenly, he looked up again, and finally remembered what the other person's appearance meant. Hakura's pupils shrank slightly, his eyes became a little dull, and the so-called first-generation Kazekage also spoke:

"Ye Cang, long time no see, I'm Xie."

The flat tone and familiar tone of voice caused Ye Cang's brain to plunge into chaos in an instant. She obviously couldn't figure out what was going on.

A psycho who had the appearance of the first Kazekage but claimed to be a scorpion appeared in front of her eyes?Appeared in this inexplicable bear country?
Wait a minute, scorpion, human puppet, could it be that...

"As you can imagine, I made the first Kazekage-sama into a human puppet. For some reason, my consciousness temporarily resides in this puppet."

Xie noticed the change in Ye Cang's expression, and felt that the other party must have reacted, so he explained lightly.

After finishing speaking, he lifted the front of his chest again, revealing the purple inner core inlaid in the heart, and showed it to Ye Cang to prove his identity.

Since Ye Cang and Xie belonged to different units, Ye Cang didn't know about Lie Dou's puppet, but the relationship between the two in the village was pretty good.

Thanks to this, Ye Cang still knows some secrets of the scorpion puppet art, including the core that exists on every puppet's chest.

After confirming Xie's identity, Ye Cang patted Mariko's shoulder lightly, bringing the latter back to his senses, and the two walked up to Xie one after another, telling each other their experiences during this period.

Until, 10 minutes later.

"So...there is no Sha Yin anymore?"

Listening to Xie slowly talk about what happened in the past two weeks, including the process and results of the Battle of Sichuan Wind, the movements of the National Defense Forces of the Fire Nation, the scene of the day when the village fell, and the fierce sea of ​​flames burning all over the sky...

Ye Cang's expression gradually changed from anxious to tense, then dull, and finally dead silent, unable to utter a word, his eyes also dimmed, as if he couldn't reproduce a single color.

Seeing Ye Cang's sad look, Xie also felt extremely heavy. He didn't participate in the battle of Sha Yin Village, because no matter whether he stood up or not, there was no way that Sha Yin's ending would change.

All the Kage-level powerhouses on our side, and all the ninja-level fighters who can be called famous, were either captured or killed after the Blitz War and the Battle of Fengchuan.

The enemy still has Lei Luo, Uzumaki Makoto, Jiraiya, Uchiha Fugaku, Tsunade and more than 2 people, and more than 600 artillery pieces.

Facing this level of attack, the remaining group of old, weak, sick and disabled in the village had no chance of defending. As a result, it was doomed from the moment the battle was launched.

Even if he joined the battle at that time, he could only delay the enemy's attack for a while. It didn't matter to the overall situation, Shayin should perish or he would perish.

If he makes a rash move, there is a high probability that he, including the corpse of Lord Kazekage of the first generation, will fall into the enemy's hands. Xie has already deserted once, so he doesn't mind doing it again.

"Brother Scorpion... what should we do next?"

A slightly trembling female voice sounded, and Mariko's eyes glistened with tears. While wiping the corners of her eyes, she asked with a choked voice.

After finally surviving from the enemy, he traveled thousands of miles across three countries, just to finally return home safely.

But at this moment, when he heard that his hometown had been destroyed and there were only endless enemies left, the belief that supported Mariko's actions suddenly shattered silently.

This year, the 16-year-old Shayin girl cried out in disappointment.

Xie watched Mariko's tears fall unstoppably, and the sadness in his heart seemed to be aroused.

But as a human puppet, his lacrimal glands couldn't secrete a single drop of liquid, only a faint look of pain appeared in those eyes on his stiff face.

"what to do……"

He muttered these three words to himself for a long time, but he didn't know how to continue.

That's right, the village is gone. Who can give an answer to where these sand hermit ninjas should go and what to do in the future?

"We are already lonely ghosts now. In the days to come, can we only become Langren?"

Ye Cang seemed to have calmed down, she seemed to be talking to Xie and Mariko, but she didn't look at them, and asked questions to herself, expressing the confusion in her heart without any concealment.

Xie didn't open his mouth, and Mariko didn't intend to answer, the atmosphere between the three fell into silence in an instant, only the girl's crying sounded from time to time, adding a little desolation out of thin air to this quiet forest.

Maybe for a moment, or maybe forever...

It wasn't until the dry and hoarse voice came slowly that the three of Xie came back to their senses a little bit, and all looked at the grass not far away.

"If you want revenge, Kirigakure welcomes you."

From the flat soil, a figure slowly rose up, half black and half white cheeks first caught the eyes of the three of them, and the one who spoke just now was that black face.

"You are...the master of Kirigakure."

Scorpion narrowed his eyes, and quickly recognized the identity of the visitor. As the confidant of the Fourth Kazekage and the grandson of Elder Sand Yin, he knew a lot of confidential information.

In particular, the existence of Black and White Jue has long been no secret to the senior management of the major ninja villages. Many intelligence and information exchanges are passed through Jue as a transfer station, which is safe, reliable, and efficient.

But, to be honest, Xie didn't have a good impression of this schizophrenic intelligence agent, just because Bing never deliberately concealed Jue's origin.

Thanks to the existence of some spies, all the high-level Ninja Village knows that it is definitely Uchiha Madara's legacy, and Uchiha Madara...no need to elaborate, no one likes him.
