Analyzing the Ninja World Starting from Konoha

Chapter 121 After holding back for so long, it's finally time to do something big!

"Enemy attack?!"

"Protect the body!"

This was like stirring up a hornet's nest.

Swish swish!

A dozen or so Konoha ninjas quickly surrounded him, pointing their weapons at Aoba.

Clang! Clang!

Two figures blocked Qingye's path.

"Don't move!"

Uchiha Itachi roared, and although his Sharingan was not yet activated, his murderous aura was unmistakable.

He and Ishida Ryoichi stood back to back, blocking Aoba's path, their short swords held horizontally in front of their chests, confronting the surrounding Konoha ninjas.

They didn't know what their captain was going to do, but they trusted him unconditionally.

Despite facing a number of ninjas from their village that outnumbered them by more than ten, the two men's aura was in no way weak.

Their actions undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.

Tensions were high between the two sides, and a battle was imminent.

"Stop! That's mind-reading magic!"

A ninja bearing the Yamanaka clan crest pushed his way out of the crowd and shouted.

He looked at the chakra fluctuations in Aoba's hand, his expression complex.

"He was reading the dead man's memories—though it was against the rules, he wasn't destroying the body."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding ninjas hesitated for a moment.

Yumiko, who was kneeling on the ground, also realized what was happening. She quickly stood up, spread her arms to shield Aoba, and cried out in a tearful voice, "He's Ueno-sensei's student! That's his teacher! You've misunderstood!"

It turned out they were the deceased's students.

Hearing Yumiko's explanation, the hostility of the surrounding ninjas subsided considerably.

In this cruel ninja world, it is not uncommon for people to read the memories of their fallen comrades in order to obtain information or fulfill their last wishes.

It was only because Aoba's reaction was too aggressive that the conflict was triggered.

The group slowly lowered their weapons, but still maintained a wary distance.

Aoba remained oblivious to the disturbances of the outside world.

His consciousness was completely immersed in the fragments of Ueno-sensei's remaining memories.

The image is fragmented and chaotic.

The flash of the explosion.

The hideous face of the Sand Village Puppet Master.

The sharp whistling sound of poisoned needles piercing the air.

The final frame shows Ueno-sensei shoving Yumiko away, only to be pierced by the mechanical blades on the puppet.

In the final moments of his life, the thought that flashed through the mind of that somewhat stern teacher was not the fear of death.

"What a pity—"

We haven't seen Aoba develop any new medical ninjutsu yet.

That child is a true genius; if he grows up, he will definitely surpass Lady Tsunade.

I really want to see him—become the strongest one day—

The memory abruptly ended.

Aoba's hand trembled slightly.

There was no conspiracy, no scheming.

It was a sudden attack by Sunagakure, a fierce encounter, in which Ueno-sensei sacrificed himself to protect Yumiko and many other medical ninjas.

And a teacher's purest expectations and regrets for his students on his deathbed.

Qingye slowly withdrew her hand.

His vision was a little blurry, so he blinked hard to suppress the soreness.

He took a blank sealing scroll from his ninja tool bag and spread it out on the ground.

Hands form a mudra.

"seal up."

With a puff of white smoke, Professor Ueno's body disappeared from the spot and was collected into the scroll.

Aoba picked up the scroll and carefully placed it in her bosom, keeping it close to her body.

"What's going on over there?"

A majestic voice rang out.

The crowd automatically parted to make way for each other.

A man with a pineapple-shaped haircut and wearing a Jonin vest walked over.

Nara Suzaku.

The original chief of staff temporarily took over command of the entire headquarters after Sarutobi Shinnosuke's death in battle.

He looked exhausted, and his body was covered in undried blood, clearly indicating that he had also been through a fierce battle.

Just as I passed through the crowd, I saw Aoba sealing the corpse.

Seeing Aoba surrounded in the middle, and Uchiha Itachi and Ishida Ryoichi blocking the way, Nara Suzaku frowned.

"What are you doing here—"

Before Suzaku Nara could finish his question, the sand beneath Aoba's feet suddenly began to churn.

The sand and gravel on the ground suddenly began to shake violently.

Whoohoo!

Large amounts of yellow sand gathered at the foot of Qingye, forming a solid sand cushion.

Qingye stepped onto the sand mat and slowly rose into the air.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, Aoba stepped onto the sand mat and soared into the sky, flying straight towards the direction of Sunagakure.

It moved so fast that in the blink of an eye, only a black dot remained.

Suzaku Nara was completely stunned.

It can even fly?!

And that direction is towards Sunagakure!

He quickly inquired about the situation from those around him.

A moment later, Suzaku Nara's expression became extremely solemn.

He made a judgment immediately.

Yamashiro Aoba is going to seek revenge on Sunagakure!

"Someone come here!"

"Form a temporary special team immediately!"

"Akimichi Maruten!"

"Here!" A burly ninja stepped forward in response.

"You lead the team, three days in the mountains, the oil woman—"

Nara Suzaku quickly named several people, forming an elite tracking team.

"Go immediately to support Yamashiro Aoba! Bring him back at all costs!"

"yes!"

Akimichi Maru received the order and quickly led his squad away.

Suzaku Nara stood there, his brows furrowed.

He not only has to be in charge of rebuilding the command center, but now he has an even more difficult task to handle.

He turned around, his gaze falling on Uchiha Itachi and Ishida Ryoichi.

It seems I need to have a good talk with these two people.

Actually, the two of them were also confused, only now realizing that their captain could actually fly.

The night wind howled high in the sky, making my robes flutter loudly.

Aoba stepped onto the sand mat, continuously outputting chakra to maintain high-speed flight.

Below, the boundless Gobi Desert receded rapidly into the night.

Finding the stronghold of Sunagakure is not difficult.

Soon, a dimly lit area came into his detection range.

Although Sunagakure has implemented a blackout policy, from an aerial perspective, even the faintest human-made firefly light is clearly visible against the dark desert backdrop.

Under the cover of night, Qingye landed on a nearby sand dune, slowly crouching down and touching the ground with two fingers.

There are quite a few people; a rough estimate is around a thousand.

Without the slightest hesitation, he raised his right hand, bit his thumb, and slid it across his palm.

Hands form a mudra.

"Spiritual communication!"

Bang.

As the white smoke dissipated, a small, entirely greenish-blue lizard appeared.

"Lord Aoba."

The blue lizard flicked its tongue and greeted him respectfully.

"Blue Lizard, use [Contract]."

Aoba's voice was eerily calm, without any inflection.

"Yes, Lord Aoba!"

The blue lizard was taken aback at first, but nodded in agreement, and then quickly climbed up to Qingye's neck.

"Lord Aoba, the cooperation in the Covenant is not yet proficient, and the time should not be too long, otherwise there is a risk of being eroded by the natural energy of the dragon vein."

The blue lizard offered a final reminder.

"I understand, let's begin."

Aoba's tone was flat, still devoid of any emotion.

The blue lizard said nothing more. It lay down on Qingye's shoulder, and the scales on its back began to light up one by one. Purple patterns spread along its spine and quickly climbed up Qingye's neck.

That is the power of the dragon vein.

A violent and massive surge of chakra instantly flooded into Aoba's meridians.

If you look closely, you can even see a faint purple hue flowing across his skin.

Feeling the immense chakra within his body, a near-omnipotent illusion arose spontaneously.

power.

Infinite power.

This feeling is intoxicating, as if you could tear everything in front of you apart with just a wave of your hand.

As the alien energy invaded, the chip's red alert flashed frantically in the field of vision.

[WARNING: High concentration of unknown energy intrusion detected.]

[Warning: Abnormal surge in cell activity.]

【warn----】

Aoba completely ignored the chip's prompts; all he wanted to do now was kill!

He once again controlled the sand mat and flew directly above the Sand Fortress.

This time, he did not conceal his presence and freely released the chakra within his body.

The massive chakra surge acted like a lighthouse in the night, instantly alerting the guards below.

"Who goes there!"

"In the heavens!"

The patrolling Sand Village ninjas immediately spotted the black dot hovering in the night sky, and exclamations of surprise rose and fell.

The next moment, a sharp whistle pierced the night sky.

The alarm blared throughout the base, and countless Sand Ninja rushed out of their tents.

Some quick-reacting ninjas had already thrown shuriken and kunai at Aoba in the sky, but due to the great distance...

The ninja tool, exhausted, fell to the ground mid-air.

Several Sand Village ninjas skilled in Wind Release formed hand seals, their wind blades slicing through the air, but they only grazed the bottom of the sand mat as they flew past.

Qingye looked down indifferently at the chaotic crowd below, regarding them as mere ants.

He bit his finger again and began to form hand seals.

Just then, a figure rushed out from the largest command tent.

Ye Cang looked up, and when she saw the familiar figure in the air, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

It's him!

How did he end up here?!

An intense sense of impending danger gripped her heart.

"Quickly! Everyone! Evacuate the camp immediately!"

She screamed with all her might, her voice shrill with fear.

However, it was too late.

The green leaves in the sky have completed the hand seals.

"Spirit Communication: The Technique of Roof Collapse".

In the sky, the whispers of green leaves were carried by the sound of the wind.

A gigantic lizard of unimaginable size appeared out of nowhere, its enormous shadow instantly enveloping the entire Sand Village outpost.

Its massive body blocked out the moonlight, and with an unparalleled, overwhelming force, it pressed straight down.

Boom!!!

The earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking.

The massive shockwave whipped up a cloud of dust, instantly tearing countless tents apart, and screams were drowned out by the deafening roar.

The earth-shattering commotion even stopped the Konoha support team, which was rushing dozens of kilometers away.

Summoning such a massive summoning beast almost instantly drained Aoba's original chakra.

However, the effect of [Concordance] activates in the next second.

The blue lizard on his shoulder shone with a brilliant purple light as a powerful surge of dragon vein chakra flowed into it.

In just two or three seconds, Aoba felt his emptied body being filled again.

[Warning! Alien chakra invasion! Abnormally increased cell activity!]

The internal chip emitted another piercing alarm.

The boundless sense of power returns, captivating all who experience it.

Aoba now understands why Centipede would go to such lengths to transform himself into a puppet in order to seize this power.

The giant lizard vanished into white smoke after delivering its attack.

But it's not over yet.
