Naruto: The Infinite New World

Chapter 77 Investigation

The third ninja disappearance point is far from the hot spring inn.

They had already done more than enough by placing the victims of the hot spring hotel on the ground.

For the three of them, the mission was the primary objective.

I left the hotel.

The three hurried toward their destination, quickly traversing the jungle.

A gust of wind was stirred up.

Passersby felt something above their heads, but when they looked up, there was nothing there.

The three were moving forward at full speed, not daring to delay for even a moment.

The longer things drag on, the worse it will be for them.

"Brother Yashiro, what do you think Kirigakure is up to?"

Although the three of them were moving at full speed, it did not affect their conversation.

Uchiha Shin did not understand the strategy behind the Kirigakure's operation.

"After leaving Kirigakure, we went straight to the hot spring inn. Judging from the way they were doing things, it wasn't really for rest."

Yu-no-kuni is a famous hot spring town.

If the other party truly only wanted to soak in the hot springs, they wouldn't have chosen to kill Konoha ninjas.

Moreover, they could have just left, but when they saw that they were being pursued, they actually came back and killed the witness.

The key is.

For ninjas, witnesses are of little use.

It's an absolutely cruel act.

After a moment of contemplation, the Eighth Generation said, "The Hidden Mist Village is a very oppressive place. I don't know what the Third Mizukage was thinking. In the Hidden Mist Village, the weak should die, and the strong can obtain everything."

"This is what makes Kirigakure different from us."

If war is a time when death is most frequent.

Kirigakure was constantly at war.

Even graduating as a genin requires a bloodbath.

The ninja ranking does not consider overall abilities; it only considers strength.

That truly is a paradise for the strong and a hell for the weak.

These are all the information they obtained from the heads of the Hidden Mist ninjas they killed.

However, such villages often have many powerful individuals.

Of those who managed to fight their way out of there, only a handful are truly shrewd.

"So, Kirigakure is an evil organization?"

Uchiha Shin felt he had guessed the truth.

After all, only criminals would do this.

"Perhaps."

The Eighth Generation shook his head. He didn't really know how to evaluate Kirigakure, but Kirigakure was much more dangerous than other ninja villages.

If it weren't for the Uchiha clan holding out here so fiercely...

It is estimated that Konoha is about to lose the stronghold of Yugakure.

"The important thing is to defend this place, otherwise it will be a stain on the Uchiha clan."

Although they didn't conquer the village of Tangren, it was White Fang who led the team to conquer it.

At the time, the ninjas of Yugakure referred to him as White Fang.

I don't know where this name came from.

Yashiro actually wanted one too.

For example, let's just squint.

The three gradually fell silent and began to move.

As the trees swiftly passed by.

They have already seen their destination.

In a canyon.

The three are investigating.

"There are traces of ninjutsu."

At this moment, Yatsushiro spoke up.

Both of them turned their gazes to him at the same time. Both of them had activated their Sharingan, but they didn't notice the traces so quickly.

I didn't expect the eighth generation to come so quickly.

Yashiro raised his hand and rubbed it together; it felt slightly damp.

"It should be the Fog Concealment Technique."

Creating dense fog is something that the Hidden Mist Ninja often do.

This reminded Yashiro of a group from Kirigakure.

The Fog Shadow Assassination Squad.

The Hidden Mist Technique is a fundamental ninjutsu used by the Hidden Mist Assassination Squad.

The squad was formed to kill the enemy leader and possesses extremely strong assassination capabilities.

This made Yatsushiro feel uneasy.

"Yashiro, your eye power is actually stronger than ours."

Uchiha Shin asked curiously.

Everyone has three tomoe, so how could Yashiro discover it so easily?

"I'm a few years older than you all."

Yashiro smiled.

"Furthermore, I learned basic internal energy techniques. This ninjutsu can enhance my visual abilities, and naturally it can also increase the power of the Sharingan."

"I can't believe they can do something like this."

Fugaku was somewhat surprised.

Ultimately, they underestimated the ninjutsu created by Uchiha Kin.

The opponent's six-style taijutsu is indeed exquisite. I never expected that basic internal energy techniques could enhance the Sharingan.

He hadn't expected it at all.

"Actually, I have a copy. If you want, I don't think Jin will have any objections."

The Eighth Generations then brought it up, also in an effort to ease tensions between Fugaku and Uchiha Kin.

The two seem to have gotten too estranged.

Fugaku fell silent; his silence wasn't just stiff.

It's almost a matter of life and death.

Even without the fire core, Jin didn't really like him.

"Then please thank Kim for us."

Uchiha Shin also sensed something was wrong and directly agreed on Fugaku's behalf.

Regardless of what the young clan leader thinks.

It's best not to easily reject something that can enhance your strength.

Fugaku remained silent, which was tantamount to acquiescing.

The three had already explored the area, but still hadn't found many useful clues.

"The other side has passed through this canyon. Does anyone know where it leads?"

Fugaku looked at the other side of the canyon.

The entire canyon only has two paths, one in front and one behind.

"Beyond this defensive line lies the sea."

Yatsudai frowned.

"If you cross the sea, that is the Land of Thunder."

The three exchanged a glance and quickly moved forward.

They had just emerged from the canyon.

Sudden.

"No!" Yashiro shouted.

The three of them quickly jumped away from their original positions.

The ground ahead collapsed, followed by a loud "BOOM!"

One by one, figures emerged from both sides of the canyon.

The outside gradually became shrouded in mist.

One by one, ninjas wearing Rain Ninja headbands blocked the way in front and behind.

"This is a trap." The three of them turned grim.

Yashiro also looked annoyed.

He didn't even notice.

"You can't blame yourself, Yashiro."

Fugaku remained calm and composed.

Although the period had already entered the midst of war, Kirigakure had not made any major moves.

Most people would never imagine that they would set a trap at this time.

The other party's behavior was truly unexpected.

Or rather, it fits the current situation, but Konoha is unaware of it.

war.

How could the other ninja villages possibly just stand by and watch quietly?

"Why are there only three people?"

The leading man frowned, looking at Fugaku and the other two with obvious displeasure.

"I guess I'll just have to keep fishing."

The woman next to the man licked her lips.

"If we keep fishing, Konoha will find out."

Since Kirigakure intends to participate in this war, they naturally need to weaken Konoha's strength first.

Unfortunately, we only managed to catch three small teams, so adding these four would make it the fifth.

"Hey, these three aren't ordinary Konoha ninjas."

A short, white-haired old man next to him wore a cruel smile.

"These are elite members of the Konoha Uchiha clan."

Three pairs of scarlet eyes looked at them.

"Fight your way out."

The three of them drew their swords at the same time.

The Uchiha clan's swordsmanship was also quite renowned.

"Kill them."

As the leading man shouted.

The mist gradually enveloped the three of them.
