Konoha's entry is ninja!

After saying that, the person has disappeared.

Hoshita Shuichi looked down at the talisman wrapped on the sword hilt and couldn't help but smile: Minato-sensei is still as careful as ever!

Reaching out to hold the hilt of the sword, lotus patterns quietly appeared on it.

"set off!"

Looking back at the pharmacist Nonoyu, Hoshixia Shuichi drank lightly and immediately jumped up.

Asuka turned around and waved to the pharmacist Nonou who had been watching them before jumping to follow them.

……

After successfully leaving the Leaf Village, Shuichi Hoshita found a place nearby to leave a Flying Thunder God Kunai, inserting it into the stone, leaving only the handle.

And at this distance, he could easily sense the Flying Thunder God technique he left behind in Konoha Village.

One in the study, one on Yakushi Nonou, and one on Shizune.

After leaving behind the Flying Thunder God Kunai, Hoshita Shuichi took Asuka and continued to set off, but the direction was towards the Kingdom of Wind.

Because they were not in a hurry, the two of them arrived at the border of the Fire Country and the River Country the next day.

In the Land of Fire, Shuichi Hoshita left a total of 5 Flying Thunder God Kunai.

After resting at the border for a night, the two entered the Kingdom of Rivers the next day, and entered the border of the Kingdom of Wind the same day.

And during this process, there was always a group of crows following around.

With his experience in the Kingdom of Wind last time, plus a group of crows, and Hoshita Shuichi himself could turn into a flying bird, the journey went smoothly and he didn't get lost.

But Hoshita Shuichi's goal was not Sunagakure Village, and he did not approach Sunagakure Village rashly.

Instead, they left flying thunder god marks or flying thunder god kunai in small oases or towns around Sunagakure Village.

After finishing the arrangement, Hoshishita Shuichi withdrew Asuka from the Country of Winds, changed his appearance, pretended to be a traveling merchant, entered a medium-sized town in the Country of Rivers, and bought a grocery store, as if he was tired and decided to settle down. Come down.

The grocery store was left to Asuka to take care of. Hoshita Shuichi continued to concentrate on training while using shadow clones and crows to monitor the area around Sunagakure Village.

He didn't know if the Red Sand Scorpion would assassinate the third Kazekage again.

But judging from the last information obtained, the Third Kazekage often leaves the village to travel in the Country of Wind, most likely to explore iron ore or something.

After all, he already had successful experience in the River Country.

Time passed in this kind of practice and monitoring.

In the blink of an eye, Xiu Yi's 11th birthday has arrived.

In the afternoon, Asuka took care of Hoshita Shuichi's hair, then made a gesture and said with a smile: "Shuichi, before you know it, you have grown taller than Sister Nonou!"

Hoshita Xiuichi said helplessly: "I am one year older, so it is natural for me to grow taller!"

But he did grow faster this past year than before.

Yakushi Nonou's height is only 155CM, and he is already 160CM, only a few centimeters behind Asuka.

It's a good thing to be taller, but the only regret is that I can't act coquettishly to the pharmacist Nonou like before.

Well, it’s time to change the way we get along!

Hoshita Shuichi decided to thoroughly demonstrate the charm of a mature man and become the absolute reliance of this family.

……

Although there were only two people in the evening, Asuka prepared a lot because it was her birthday.

Longevity noodles, birthday cakes, and Shuichi Hoshita’s favorite dishes filled the table.

But halfway through the meal, Hoshita Shuichi suddenly had a meal, and then said with a smile: "It seems that today is my lucky day!"

Asuka was stunned for a moment, then realized: "Is there something going on in the Kingdom of Wind?"

Hoshita Xiu nodded and stood up: "Feng Ying is out!"

Asuka was a little regretful that she could not finish the meal, but she still smiled and said: "I have eaten the longevity noodles and birthday cake, so Shuichi's birthday has been completed. Let's go!"

Asuka said that she had already stood up to pack her things.

Five minutes later, the two men were fully armed and suddenly disappeared from the room.

……

The Kingdom of Wind, an abandoned stronghold in Sand Hidden Village.

Under the broken eaves and broken wall, the figures of Hoshita Shuichi and Asuka suddenly appeared.

Then Hoshita Shuichi split into a shadow clone and turned into an eagle, fluttering its wings and flying into the night sky.

About 10 minutes later, Hoshita Shuichi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he received the memory feedback from the shadow clone.

Asuka quickly asked: "Shuichi, how is the situation?"

"Are there many people around Kazekage?"

Hoshita Shuichi shook his head: "Kazekage is alone."

Kazekage had led the guards out of Sand Hidden Village to a nearby oasis before being detected by his shadow clone. Unexpectedly, Kazekage now left the town alone.

Asuka was surprised: "How...how could this happen?"

"Shuichi, could it be a trap?"

Shuichi Hoshita understood what Asuka meant and smiled: "The trap won't work on us."

"Let's go and see what the Kazekage wants to do?"

With that said, he set off and Asuka immediately followed.

The two of them moved in the desert at high speed, one behind the other.

However, Hoshita Shuichi did not approach rashly, but hung from a distance.

About half an hour later, through high-altitude reconnaissance, Hoshita Shuichi discovered that the Third Kazekage had entered the ruins of a town.

Most importantly, there is another humanoid radiating heat among the ruins of the town.

"The Scorpion of Red Sand?"

Hoshita Shuichi guessed.

He has never seen the Red Sand Scorpion and has no knowledge of its chakra information, so he cannot identify it through listening skills.

And the high-altitude thermal vision eyes can't see the face clearly.

but.

No matter who the Kazekage comes out to see, this is a perfect opportunity to kill the Kazekage!

I won’t say whether I’ll do it or not.

Must do it now!

Hoshita Shuichi took off the hooded robe he was wearing and handed it to Asuka, saying: "Sister Asuka, you can sweep the formation for me from a distance."

"If any Kazekage Guards appear, or if other ninjas approach, send a flare and let me know!"

Asuka nodded first, and then said quickly: "There are two people in Fengying's place. It must not be easy for Fengying to pay so much attention to them."

"Why don't you leave a shadow clone to keep watch, and I'll go over and help you!"

Hoshita Shuichi shook his head: "I won't appear in my true form for the time being, so you shouldn't get close to the battlefield for the time being."

He thought for a moment and then added: "Once I use the fire escape chakra mode, you don't get close to the battlefield again."

Asuka nodded heavily after hearing this: "Yes!"

After setting the plan, Hoshita Shuichi jumped into the air and turned into a goshawk, fluttering its wings and quickly disappearing from Asuka's sight.

Chapter 122 The Third Kazekage VS Red Sand Scorpion! (Additional updates require monthly subscription)

2024-03-11

In an abandoned town that was half covered by wind and sand, Shuichi Hoshita had transformed into a rattlesnake and lurked here.

In the desert, a rattlesnake is perfectly normal.

At this time, the Third Kazekage had just connected with another person detected by Hoshita Shuichi.

"Master Kazekage, you are so slow, you made me wait for so long... You know, I hate waiting the most."

The Third Kazekage didn't care at all about the words of the Red Sand Scorpion, and said calmly: "Is there anything important to contact at this time?"

"You should be preparing to attack that person."

The Crimson Sand Scorpion, shrouded in black robes, chuckled: "He is indeed a ruthless superior..."

"Even a puppet needs rest and worn parts need to be replaced."

"You know, I just helped you destroy a few small countries who proposed to reduce the village's finances."

The Third Kazekage is still ruthless: "This is the price for my forgiveness of your sin of assassinating the Kazekage!"

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Why did you come to me today for something important?"

Red Sand Scorpion chuckled: "I want you to see my masterpiece!"

"Believe me, this will be very useful for Sunagakure Village to build a more powerful puppet army."

Feng Ying knew what it was and hummed softly: "Your puppet?"

"This is not allowed by the ninja world. You are a traitor to ninja, so I tolerate you!"

If Sunagakure Village develops puppets, it will definitely be attacked by several other villages, and even those small ninja villages will follow suit.

Therefore, even though human puppets have advantages over ordinary puppets, such as being able to preserve the chakra properties of the deceased and some abilities.

How could one person be as threatening as a village, especially one of the five gangsters?

The Red Sand Scorpion took out the scroll and said with a smile: "Isn't it cruel enough to develop jinchūriki?"

“Isn’t it cruel enough to start a war?”

"Using the enemy's body to make some puppets is a waste utilization!"

"Feng Ying, you are too weak!"

After the words fell, the sealing scroll was untied, and a puppet appeared.

The Third Kazekage saw it but was not surprised at all: "Make Konoha White Fang into a human puppet. If Konoha finds out, you will be dead!"

The Red Sand Scorpion didn't care at all: "Can they still enter the Kingdom of Wind in a large scale?"

"Or will the Third Hokage take action himself?"

As for the others, he didn't care at all.

He was able to escape after assassinating Feng Ying three times, but it was not just because of Feng Ying's betrayal.

Kazekage underestimated him!

Thinking about it, under the hooded black robe, the Red Sand Scorpion's eyes focused and his fingers moved.

Zheng!

While the puppet made by Konoha White Fang quickly rushed out, an extremely sharp knife popped out from his right hand, with electric light flowing on the blade.

“As expected, I still don’t want to give up!”

The Third Kazekage snorted coldly, and at the same time as he retreated, the iron sand flew out.

The Crimson Sand Scorpion assassinated him three times, how could he not be on guard, even though the Crimson Sand Scorpion's ability was completely restrained by him.

Sure enough, midway through the attack, the puppet fell from the air.

But the moment it landed, a chain shot out from the puppet's left hand and wrapped around the left leg of the retreating Third Kazekage.

"Even sand iron cannot completely destroy the puppet's abilities at once!"

"Kazekage-sama should know the abilities of Konoha White Fang, right?"

The Red Sand Scorpion chuckled.

The Third Kazekage's expression changed slightly. The next moment, when he was about to break free from the pull of the chain, an electric current swept over him.

It’s Konoha White Fang’s Thunder Release!
