A comic book journey to see the Eye of Antiquity

At this point, it was just a spontaneous sigh; to ask him to give a detailed explanation would be asking too much.

"Forget it, I won't think about what I can't figure out. I'll just live according to my own ideas."

Sure enough, Yang Lei couldn't figure it out, so he simply told himself not to think about it anymore, otherwise he would only be causing trouble.

"It's still a long way from dawn."

Standing up again, Yang Lei looked up at the sky from the bridgehead and realized that it would be a while before the sun rose. He patted his backside, turned around, and muttered as he walked forward, "Let's keep going then. We can rest together when we get to Wuyin Village."

Yang Lei's next stop is Wuyin Village? What is he going to Wuyin Village for?

The three great ninja villages have all spoken out, forcing Konoha to expel him. What do you think he'd do there?

You think you're so great? Fine, I'll personally deliver the goods to your door. I'm asking you, do you dare to accept them?

Yang Lei has quite a temper, and now that he's a rogue ninja and wanted by the authorities, how could he not hate the three great ninja villages? Since he doesn't know where to go, he might as well go and cause trouble for the three great ninja villages.

Let me make it clear beforehand that he's not going to his death. After all, his strength has already grown considerably, and if he can't win a fight, he can still run away.

Another point is that, just like when Nagato attacked Konoha, by opening up the battlefield to someone else's home, the losses will never be borne by ourselves.

Of course, besides settling personal scores, he also had another purpose. The three great ninja villages together possessed a total of six tailed beasts: the three-tailed beast Sofu and the six-tailed beast Saiken of Kirigakure, the four-tailed beast Son Goku and the five-tailed beast Kokuo of Iwagakure, and the two-tailed beast Matatabi and the eight-tailed beast Gyūki of Kumogakure.

Although Yang Lei has already activated Six Paths Sage Mode, since he has already obtained the Nine-Tails' chakra characteristics and has nothing else to do, he might as well take a trip to the three great ninja villages and collect the chakra characteristics of the other tailed beasts as well.

"In addition to the Nine-Tails' chakra characteristics, I also have the One-Tailed Shukaku's chakra characteristics."

As Yang Lei walked through the Land of Waves, he secretly calculated in his mind: "I still need the chakra characteristics of seven tailed beasts. I should be able to obtain six of them from the three great ninja villages. I can also encounter the last one, the Seven-Tails Chōmei, in Takigakure along the way. When that happens, I will be able to activate the Ten-Tails Jinchūriki mode."

Chapter 208

"But speaking of which, was that Ten-Tails Jinchuriki mode or the Ten-Tails itself?"

After much calculation, Yang Lei suddenly became troubled. After gathering the chakra characteristics of all the tailed beasts, was he considered the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, or had he become the Ten-Tails himself?

"I don't want to think about it anymore, I'll talk about it later!"

0194 A chance encounter with Terumi Mei outside Kirihime Village

Early in the morning, in a small town near the Land of Waves in the Land of Water, a person slowly walked in from outside. It was Yang Lei, who had traveled all night.

Let's find a place to rest first.

Yang Lei made a decision in his mind and checked into a hotel that opened early.

Although he could go without sleep for several days without any problems, he was currently in enemy territory, so it was best to keep his condition at its best for the sake of safety.

After resting at the hotel for a morning and having lunch prepared by the hotel, Yang Lei paid the bill and set off again.

To avoid trouble, Yang Lei had long ago stored everything that could reveal his ninja identity in his personal space, such as his Konoha headband, his ninja tool bag, and his Kusanagi sword.

Anyway, personal space is more convenient than ninja tool pouch, so I don't have to worry about being flustered when encountering enemies.

Precisely because he didn't want to cause trouble, Yang Lei didn't ask for directions to Wuyin Village. Instead, he headed towards the heart of the Water Kingdom to try and find it first, and if he couldn't find it, he would deal with it later.

Meanwhile, Akatsuki began its operation, and the three major ninja villages also received news that Yang Lei had been wanted by Konoha as a rogue ninja. At this time, an undercurrent targeting Yang Lei was slowly brewing. In addition to Akatsuki's goal being temporarily changed from recruitment to killing, Kumogakure's goal also carried some ill intentions.

Yang Lei didn't know these things, and even if he did, it wouldn't matter. What's meant to happen will happen, and what's not meant to happen will never happen. Anyway, he'll still prepare in the same way he always has.

Along the way, Yang Lei left many Flying Thunder God Technique seals in the Land of Water. In the end, he almost forgot the numbers and didn't know which coordinates were where. He could only remember the general direction.

"almost."

A few days later, Yang Lei finally stopped. If he continued to prepare like this, he would probably have to walk through every part of the Water Kingdom and leave the mark of the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Actually, it's not much different now. Apart from some places that are really impossible to go to, Yang Lei has almost traveled all over the Land of Water. You count, he has even set foot in the backyard of the Daimyo. Is there any place he hasn't been to?

There really was one, it was a women's bathhouse, cough cough.

"It's time to go to Wuyin Village."

After searching for several days, Yang Lei found the location of Wuyin Village on his own without asking or disturbing anyone.

Because Yang Lei looked to be only about fifteen years old, and he had nothing to prove his identity as a ninja, everyone who met him was careless, unaware that this guy was a dangerous person.

Now that preparations for their retreat had been completed, and Yang Lei had also located the village of Wuyin, they would not delay any longer and finally set off, heading straight for Wuyin Village.

. . . . . .

"Is this the Hidden Mist Village?"

Two days later, Yang Lei quietly crept to the entrance of the Hidden Mist Village. Peeking into the village from the shadows, Yang Lei couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He had thought that the Hidden Mist Village would be a ninja village filled with the smell of blood and a strong killing intent all day long. But now it looked like a normal ninja village, not much different from the Hidden Leaf Village, except that the size of the village was a bit different.

In comparison, Konoha Village is like the capital of a country, while Kirigakure Village is just like a county-level city; the difference in scale between them is truly enormous.

However, upon closer examination, it's not surprising that there's such a large gap between them, considering that Konoha Village is known as the number one ninja village and Kirigakure Village has never been at peace since the Third Shinobi World War.

Over the years, apart from the Fourth Mizukage Yagura carrying out reforms of the Blood Mist Village under the control of Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha, many other major events have occurred in Kirigakure.

First, there was the rebellion of the Kaguya clan, not the Kaguya of Otsutsuki, though it might be related to her. It was actually the clan of Kaguya-kun Maro.

In the story, this tribe seems to have accomplished some feats, causing great trouble for the Kirihime Village. Although they were all killed except for Kimimaro in the end, the damage caused will take a long time to recover.

In addition, other families with bloodline limits have also been attacked by Kirihime Village. For example, Haku's family did not even survive in name.

Let me clarify here: Haku is just a name. The name Mizuki is a fabrication by other authors. In reality, it seems that even Haku doesn't know which family the Ice Release bloodline limit he inherited comes from.

And then there's the Hozuki clan, including Hozuki Suigetsu. Even though Hozuki Gengetsu once ascended to the position of the Second Mizukage, what happened in the end? Only Hozuki Suigetsu survived; the rest of the clan members were gone. How tragic is that?

· ·····Requesting flowers··· ····

No wonder Wuyin Village is declining more and more. It's truly a case of reaping what you sow. The village is trying to exterminate the families, so who would stay?

If this continues, the size of Wuyin Village will inevitably shrink.

"Hurry up, all of you."

Just then, a group of people rushed over from a distance. Leading the group was a beautiful woman with long, bright red hair, followed closely by two men.

"Can't you guys go any faster? Ao, Chojuro?"

They could hear the woman in front urging the two people behind her to hurry back to the village as she walked, as if she had something urgent to attend to.

. .. .......

"Isn't there a need to be in such a hurry, Mei Terumi-sama?"

Chojuro made a soft protest while calling out the woman's name. That's right, she was the Fifth Mizukage, Mei Terumi, from the original work, but she wasn't the Mizukage yet.

"What do you know?"

Mei Terumi snorted angrily and shouted, "According to reliable sources, that genius brat named Yang Lei has already arrived in our Land of Water. We need to quickly find that bastard Fourth Hokage and make him send people to search for him with all his might, so as to find Yang Lei as quickly as possible and recruit him."

"That one."

Ao scratched his head helplessly and reminded her, "Lady Terumi Mei, we're almost back in the village. You'd better watch what you say."

Mei Terumi has quite the credentials to dare call the Mizukage of her village a bastard. Either she is very strong or her family is very powerful. No wonder she became the Fifth Hokage after overthrowing Yagura.

"what?"

Chapter 209

As the group of three drew closer, Yang Lei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly began to calculate in his mind: "Since I've encountered her, why don't I make contact with her and help her overthrow Yagura? Although this would be helping Kirigakure, wouldn't that also achieve my goal of getting revenge on Yagura? After all, it was Yagura who was trying to force Konoha."

"Just do it. Who cares if he's being manipulated by illusions? Since he's messed with me and pushed me to this point, I'll make sure he's dead."

He was just lamenting the existence of so much conflict in the world, and then suddenly he had murderous intent. Tsk tsk...

0195 Yang Lei Wants to Form an Alliance

Not far from the outside of Wuyin Village, a group of three people were hurrying towards the main gate of Wuyin Village.

"Whoosh."

Just then, a soft sound rang out in the woods.

"Be careful."

Ao, who was behind, reacted even faster than Mei Terumi in front. He quickened his pace and rushed in front of Mei Terumi, took out a kunai from behind him and threw it forward, knocking down a fast-flying attacking object in mid-air.

"Ding."

After a crisp sound, a slender katana was knocked down.

"In the woods."

Qing's right eye was covered by an eyepatch, and Yang Lei knew that a white eye was hidden behind it, realizing that his position had been exposed.

But it doesn't matter, he never really intended to ambush them, otherwise he wouldn't have greeted them so gently.

Who are you?

Sure enough, Mei Terumi and her two companions quickly arrived, surrounding Yang Lei in a triangular formation. They looked at him warily, and Mei Terumi demanded, "Tell me, who sent you? Are you that bastard who's the fourth '705u.com-Reading Club First Release'? Finally, he's going to make a move against me too?"

"Although I really wanted to frame him."

Yang Lei spread his hands, somewhat helplessly, and asked, "But, didn't you guys figure out what that knife was?"

The three of them were taken aback and subconsciously turned to look at the long sword that they had ignored outside, suddenly feeling a sense of familiarity.

"That's right."

Yang Lei nodded and said, "That's the Thunder Blade, one of the seven great swords of your Misty Hidden Village. I don't think any assassin would use such an important weapon as a projectile, especially one that's being thrown openly."

"what?"

Mei Terumi cried out in surprise and quickly shouted, "Ao, why aren't you going to pick up the knife back?"

"Why me?"

Qing muttered something, but in the end, he still obediently jumped out and quickly picked up the Thunder Blade.

Mei Terumi snatched the Thunder Blade from Ao's hand without any hesitation, looked it up and down, and finally tested it, confirming that the blade was indeed the Thunder Blade.

"How come you have one of the Thunder Blades?"

Mei Terumi looked up at Yang Lei, because he had nothing on him except his clothes, and didn't look like a ninja at all, which made the three of them slowly lower their guard.

"It's very simple."

Since Yang Lei had decided to cooperate with Terumi Mei to overthrow Yagura, he had no intention of hiding his identity. He introduced himself frankly, saying, "Because I am the Yang Lei you are looking for. As for the Raidao, it was a trophy I seized from Kuroko Raiga when I killed him."

Yang Lei originally planned to find another weapon besides the Kusanagi Sword, which is why he became interested in the Decapitation Blade and the Thunder Blade.

However, later, during the previous Konoha Collapse Plan, Yang Lei knocked away a katana that Orochimaru was attacking him with. Afterwards, he discovered that it was actually another Kusanagi sword, but unlike the three-foot-three-inch-long straight-bladed Kusanagi sword, it was a large katana that was a full 1.5 meters long.

In this way, the decapitation sword and thunder fang he had obtained before would be useless. For Yang Lei, two weapons would be enough.

Moreover, compared to the seven great swords, the Kusanagi Sword seems to be of a higher level. At least in Yang Lei's experiment, even without using chakra, the Kusanagi Sword could easily cut through the Executioner's Blade if it was just a direct chop, while the Raito Sword could not.

That's why he was so nonchalant at this moment, throwing the Thunder Blade directly to attract Mei Terumi, which could be considered a greeting gift.

"You're Yang Lei?"

Terumi Mei held onto the Thunder Blade tightly, looking Yang Lei up and down, and exclaimed in disbelief, "You're still just a child, but do you really have that much strength?"

"Want to give it a try?"

Yang Lei laughed, and with a swift motion, he retrieved the decapitation sword and another thunder sword from his personal space. However, the decapitation sword was now only half intact.

"What's going on?"

Qing looked at Yang Lei with a puzzled expression. Although he no longer seemed wary of Yang Lei on the surface, he was still secretly keeping his white eye open. As a result, he had no idea how Yang Lei suddenly pulled out two weapons.

Even Chojuro, who was standing behind Yang Lei, didn't know what was going on. At this moment, he looked just as confused as Ao.

"There's no need to try."

Mei Terumi waved her hand dismissively. She had just said she wanted to recruit this brat, so she wasn't about to have a brain fart and start a fight. She quickly tried to reason with him, saying, "I believe you, but if you can return the other two greatswords that belong to our Kirihid Village, I'll believe you even more."

"Are you treating me like a child?"

Yang Lei looked at Terumi Mei with a wry smile, sighed helplessly, and gently tossed the two large swords in his hands forward, saying, "Never mind, anyway, I was going to return them to you anyway."

"Oh?"

Mei Terumi paused in her action of sheathing her sword, rolled her eyes, and asked, "What do you mean by that? You don't have any other requests, do you?"

Although she had no intention of handing over the three knives since they came into her possession, she could still help Yang Lei meet his demands if they were acceptable and not too unreasonable.

"They're here."

Chapter 210

Yang Lei was overjoyed. Seeing that Terumi Mei was so cooperative, he quickly said, "I want to form an alliance with you."

"An alliance?"
