The Hidden Mist Blacksmith, forging the glory of the Ninja Sword Style!

Both are major ninja clans, and both have conflicts with their respective ninja villages.

And now, this has suddenly happened to the bamboo tug family.

"Was it because the Bamboo Cutter Cat went too far and slaughtered its own kind, or was there some other reason?"

"Will something similar happen to the Uchiha clan in the future?"

A look of worry appeared on Uchiha Shisui's face.

Two figures stood behind the window of the Hokage Building.

Looking out the window at the buildings.

Not far away is the Hokage Rock.

"Danzo, let's put the Byakugan matter aside for now. Continuing to urge the Hyuga clan will probably not yield any good results. They have already done their best."

Danzo did not answer that question, but instead asked a question.

"Hiruzen, it seems you also believe that this wasn't an incident orchestrated by the Bamboo Cutter Cat, and that the real mastermind behind it all is the Third Mizukage?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.

"It's impossible for one person to wipe out an entire clan, especially overnight."

Danzo said, "Yes, but that ninja sword called the Demon Sword Dragon Bone, even if it's not that strong, is definitely quite good. Suddenly, Kirigakure has two such powerful ninja swords. We must be vigilant."

"One might be a ninja sword that Kirigakure hid in the past, but two is unlikely."

"It's more likely that a new master blacksmith has emerged in Kirigakure."

"This master blacksmith will likely forge even more ninja swords."

"This means that the number of elite ninjas in Kirigakure will inevitably increase."

"The Seven Ninja of the Mist did indeed suffer a crushing defeat when facing Might Guy, but they didn't know that we did. There was only one Might Guy, and he was already dead."

"We also cannot expect another Matt Day to appear in the short term."

"As for Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Minato, they each have their own responsibilities."

"One of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist has already caused Konoha quite a bit of trouble."

"If one more came..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned.

“The Sand Village sent a letter saying they could provide us with some assistance, while the Iwa Village retreated somewhat.”

Danzo's eyes lit up slightly.

"If we could transfer all the ninja from Kirigakure to the battlefield against Sunagakure, Konoha would be able to breathe a huge sigh of relief and even carry out some other plans."

"Hiruzen, I think we need to form an elite ninja team to infiltrate the Land of Water and investigate the situation of that great blacksmith. If we can recruit him, we should."

"If we can't win them over, we can't let them continue to forge ninja swords for Kirigakure."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.

"You, Danzo, will handle this matter."

"Sure, but I need some manpower."

"Who?"

"Kakashi"

Hiruzen Sarutobi interrupted directly.

"Impossible. Kakashi is Minato's disciple. How could he be handed over to your Root?"

Danzo shrugged.

"In that case, I need to select a few ninjas from the Yamanaka clan and the Aburame clan, otherwise, this mission will be very difficult to complete."

"As you know, Kirigakure is a place that is inherently difficult to infiltrate."

The location of each ninja village was carefully chosen.

Sunagakure was built on a very fertile oasis in the Land of Wind.

Even if the area of ​​the oasis cannot keep up with the increase in population, it will still be able to meet the demand.

But at least it can guarantee the water source needed for people's survival.

The location of Iwagakure Village is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Unless it can be attacked from high altitude.

However, there is a problem: there are not many ninjas in the entire ninja world who possess the ability to fly.

And among the ninjas of Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village), a large proportion are skilled in this.

Earth Release: The technique of using extremely light and heavy rocks can keep a person suspended in the air.

The location of Hidden Cloud Village is very secluded, shrouded in clouds and mist, like another world.

Kirigakure is located in the middle of the sea.

There is only one direction from which we can approach the Land of Water.

To reach Kirigakure, one must either traverse the entire Land of Water or take a sea route around it.

The environment, entirely composed of seawater, provides an extreme boost to Water Release ninjas.

It can be said that Kirigakure's defensive strength is no less than that of Iwagakure.

"it is good."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's reply satisfied Danzo left.

Even his steps seemed lighter than usual.

"Those three Mizukage were unjustly called tyrannical."

"If I were the Mizukage, I wouldn't let a single member of the Kaguya clan live."

"As a result, not only have many members of the bamboo culprit clan survived, but there is also the bamboo culprit cat, a loophole that has been left to wander outside."

"Kind-hearted and indecisive."

"The only commendable thing is the Blood Mist Village policy."

"but"

"The policies in this Blood Mist Village are extremely similar to my cultivation of the roots."

Danzo's eyes flickered.

"Are these three Mizukage copying me?"

Danzo had never suspected this before, but now, after seeing Kirigakure's plan to deal with the Kaguya clan, he couldn't help but have this suspicion.

While almost everyone condemned the bamboo cat, some people had different opinions.

Some people are born with destructive, criminal, and evil genes.

"The Bamboo Cutter Cat is really amazing!"

"One person, one night, one knife, and an entire clan was wiped out."

"So handsome!"

"These are the real criminals!"

"This is the real strong man!"

"I've decided that I want to do the same thing as the Taketori Neko-senpai, and then follow in his footsteps!"

In an unknown corner, a boy made this declaration.

Others are interested in keel.

"If I obtain the demon sword Dragon Bone, then could I also possess the same power as the Bamboo Cutter Neko?"

A young man licked his lips.

Uehara Shu returned to the forging island, feeling somewhat tired.

Even though Uehara Shu didn't participate in the entire process.

I just watched from the outside.

Listening to Ao's report on the Third Mizukage.

But I just couldn't help feeling tired.

Uehara Osamu didn't know why either.

Two days later, Uehara Shuu finally emerged from his exhaustion.

I opened my eyes and looked at the semi-transparent panel in front of me.

Name: Uehara Osamu.

Overall strength: Chunin.

Swordsmanship: Proficient 5300.

Human body modification: Familiar with 2000

Forging Technique: Excellent Mastery of Forging Island Bonus, Divine Hand Bonus.

Quest Item: 1 Henchman Recruitment Orders.

Blacksmith reputation: 2387.

Evaluation: As a blacksmith, the basics are quite good. Because he has his own forging grounds and equipment, his forging skills are enhanced, and he has a chance to create ninja tools of superior quality or higher.

As a ninja, his strength is questionable, and in war, he can only be considered high-level cannon fodder.

Chapter 75 Higher-Level Blueprints

"More than 2000 reputation points?"

Uehara Shu's eyes lit up when he saw the number in the reputation panel.
