Anime Heroine Who Travels Through the Blackened Way

"Well, don't worry about it Naruto. We finally went out to the village to see the scenery. Master and apprentice, let's not be idle. Why don't I ask the guards to bring a barbecue stove over, and we can make some barbecue ourselves to ward off the cold. ?”

Smiling, he raised his hand and patted Naruto on the head. Kakashi didn't mind letting go of his airs at this time. The most important thing as a teacher is to guide students out of difficulties. After coming back to his senses, Naruto glanced at Kakashi gratefully, and then nodded seriously: "Well, Kakashi-sensei, you think it's okay for me to punch Sasuke after he comes back, right?"

"Of course! If one punch is not enough, just punch twice! The teacher will definitely support you in this matter!"

Undoubtedly agreeing to Naruto's request, Kakashi's answer finally brought a smile to Naruto's face. The golden-haired boy clenched his fist hard, and for the sake of the scene, he would bear it more now. Feeling aggrieved is considered acknowledging it.

Sasuke obviously didn't know that Naruto was thinking about how the reunion between the two would develop. The stern-faced black-haired boy was pulling his left hand out of the heart of a corpse, and there were already piles of fresh corpses around him. The common feature of these people is that there are strange dark patterns on certain parts of the body. Sasuke, who has already experienced it, can easily identify it. It is the curse seal that Orochimaru can create.

There is no doubt that this is Orochimaru's northern stronghold. These other Orochimaru's cursed seal experimental subjects also perfectly confirmed this point. It can be seen that Orochimaru's research on cursed seals has matured a lot in the past two years. These successful experimental subjects can even achieve bizarre second-stage changes. The reason why he had to kill the last experimental subject with his hands was because this guy's second-stage transformation turned out to be a shell monster similar to a hermit crab. The blade of the saber was so ineffective against it that Sasuke had to get it dirty. own hands.

"Tsk tsk~ You are really strong. The average strength of these guys is at least as strong as an elite chuunin. You actually killed them all by yourself."

Suigetsu, who was following Sasuke, praised him half in surprise and half in admiration. Although he knew that he was not Sasuke's opponent due to the restraint of the thunderbolt, he did not have a lucky mentality. The killing that Sasuke caused just now made him finally realize clearly that even if the second Uchiha master didn't use Thunder Release, he might not be his opponent.

"There are so many guards here. It should be a very important place. Go to the room on the left and search."

Not bothering to pay attention to Suigetsu's flattery, Sasuke gave him orders unceremoniously. He could see that this young Kirigakure ninja had a typical strong-willed mentality. Since the other party followed him and thought he was not his opponent , that means you can use it as a slave.

"Tch, got it."

After grunting, Suigetsu did listen to Sasuke's words. In fact, the reason why he followed the second Uchiha master was very simple. It was for a big sword, which was one of the former Kirigakure Seven Ninja Swords, Momochi Zabubu. A beheading sword. After Zabuza defected from Kirigakure, there was no news until Konoha later confirmed the mission to kill him. The person who accomplished this mission was Team 7, and Sasuke was one of its members. As a Kirigakure ninja, Suigetsu's wish was to collect the ninja swords left behind by the previous Kirigakure seven ninja swords. However, although Zabuza died, he did not know where he died. Suigetsu's purpose of following Sasuke was to ask about this matter, but Sasuke's aura of keeping strangers away undoubtedly put Suigetsu under a lot of pressure. He didn't think this guy would just say whatever he asked, so he could only follow him first. I'll ask again after I'm familiar with it.

After seeing that Suigetsu had indeed left, Sasuke turned his head cautiously and looked at the corridor in front of him. From just now, he had a vague feeling of extreme uneasiness, as if he smelled the breath of a beast. Although the human olfactory system is not enough to clearly feedback this breath to the brain, it can make the body feel Instinct vigilance, and this is one of the so-called 'intuitions'.

Silently turning on his kaleidoscope, Sasuke walked calmly towards the room on the right. After seeing the marks on the wall clearly, a cold feeling suddenly poured into his heart. Let him know what makes him afraid.

The Northern Post is one of Orochimaru's quite mature posts. Although it is generally an area built underground, the walls and roads are made of hard rocks solidified by earth. These stones may not be able to be retained even by sharp swords. traces. However, at the end of this corridor, there is a large area of ​​honeycomb-shaped holes on the wall that are densely packed like arrows. Some of them can even be seen in dark brown, which is enough to prove that the attack that caused these marks accurately killed people at that time. Some people blocking the way.

And Sasuke has indeed seen these tiny holes before! Only one person's attack method can do it, and that is the current Akatsuki organization's Sora Chan! That ice escape ninja named Mercury Lamp! Her random shooting of ice feathers is an attack that can create these marks in an instant, and there is not even the slightest filling in these holes. This is precisely because with the passage of time, the ice feathers that were nailed to the wall melted into The moisture disappears, leaving only traces of the attacked wall.

Slowly pushing open the door at the end of the corridor, Sasuke looked around the room carefully, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. The room was in a mess, as if it had been vandalized. The overturned bookshelves and a corpse on the ground that had been dead for many days could all prove that this happened some time ago.

Orochimaru is a defector from the Akatsuki organization, and Sasuke knows this information. So based on the scene in front of him, he can probably deduce that it is indeed the mercury lamp that comes here to cause destruction, and there are many reasons. It may be Coming to hunt down Orochimaru on the orders of the Akatsuki organization may also be for other reasons.

Could it be that the intelligence clues that I had been looking for for a long time were broken again here?

Sighing silently, Sasuke walked to the corpse and squatted down, wanting to check if there were any clues on the corpse. After turning the corpse over, the black-haired boy frowned subtly.

The corpse was obviously the person in charge of this northern stronghold, and the cause of his death was also very simple. A red scroll was roughly stuffed deep into his mouth, as if he was mocking him, using this method of suffocation. He was sentenced to death.

Ignoring the tragic state and stench of the corpse, and using his pupil technique to confirm that there was no mechanism in the scroll, Sasuke pulled out the red scroll without changing his expression. Although part of the scroll was stained due to blood stains, But it didn't affect the opening. Sasuke, who opened it casually, just glanced at it and was stunned subconsciously, because the writing on the scroll was also very simple.

There are only five short words - "Eye of the Moon Project".

(PS1: You don’t need to know where Sasuke is, just know where he might go~~)

(PS2: I suddenly discovered that the relationship between Zuo Ming and Zuo Ming here at Fourth Daughter is really good~~tea~~)

Two sets of plans

Sasuke is indeed a smart kid, so after seeing this almost intact scroll, he was just stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that his itinerary had been predicted, although he did try his best to counter-track it. The ground was perfect, but that didn't mean that his itinerary goals were also perfectly hidden.

The traces of the arrogant Ice Escape Secret Technique of Mercury Lantern were not concealed at all, as if she was blatantly telling Sasuke that she knew he would come here, so she left this scroll, as if she wanted to tell him something.

Silently, Sasuke's teeth chattered. Mercury Lamp's behavior did make him feel a little humiliated and frustrated, but another kind of certainty also emerged in Sasuke's heart. The direction of my pursuit is indeed correct, so the mercury lamp will react to it. Maybe she didn't know who was tracking her, but that didn't stop her from making arrangements in advance to deal with the pursuer.

If your direction is wrong, it is impossible to encounter this arrangement.

Therefore, there is only one question left: whether to believe what is recorded in the scroll in hand.

He completely fell into the enemy's plan, and the other party also left an information scroll that was similar to a mockery. For the proud Sasuke, this was the worst kind of irony. If it was in the original work, according to him, Shi's mentality should have been to burn the scroll with a cold snort and get back on the road, because he didn't think that the content of the scroll might involve him in anything.

But now, Sasuke here has not thrown away the scroll in his hand. Although the black-haired boy's knuckles are slightly white from the exertion, he still has not thrown away this scroll that should be humiliating.

Yes, even now, Sasuke does not think that the content recorded in this scroll may involve anything about him. But...he couldn't guarantee that the contents of this scroll would not implicate Konoha, or even those he cared about.

After a long silence, Sasuke took a deep breath, and the hesitation in his eyes completely disappeared. Yes, I was indeed seen through by the mercury lamp for the purpose of tracking. This was a failure. There was no need to deny or refuse. The last member of the Uchiha clan was not shameless enough to deny failure. As for the scroll, what’s the point of reading it? If there is really a weight that makes you give up the pursuit, it means that you should give up temporarily.

Shaking the scroll completely open, Sasuke began to read the text recorded inside without hesitation. After a quick glance, an unconcealable haze enveloped Sasuke's face.

"Hello, Sasuke? I've finished searching here and found nothing. What about you?"

Suigetsu walked in from the door with a gloomy look on his face, and when he turned around, Sasuke's tone was simple and straightforward: "I'm going to the Iron Kingdom, you can do whatever you want."

"ah?"

Suigetsu, who was confused by this sentence, took several seconds to realize that this was wrong. The second young master in front of him must have spent a lot of effort to find Orochimaru's base. At this time, he should continue to move towards You have been searching for clues, why are you suddenly going to the Kingdom of Iron now? That place is the last territory of the samurai. Even if Orochimaru, a rebellious ninja, has great hands and eyes, it is impossible for him to have a personal base in that kind of place.

But Sasuke is obviously too lazy to explain anymore. The things recorded on this scroll can only be described as terrifying. Even if it is fake, it is necessary to report it to Kakashi who is participating in the Five Shadows Conference and let him decide how to deal with it. .

Hinata was not surprised by Sasuke's possible reaction. The so-called perfect plan is actually very simple. As long as you know how a person will react to certain things, and then arrange things according to this reaction, you can achieve similar effects.

Sasuke in the original book was almost always immersed in hatred until the end. First, he wanted to avenge his brother Itachi for the genocide, then he wanted to avenge Danzo for the genocide, and finally he wanted to avenge the genocide for Konoha. For him, Yan's world at that time was probably filled with things that could be discarded at any time. Therefore, it is not surprising that he abandoned fragrant phosphorus without hesitation.

The reason why this two-pole brother finally changed his purpose again, from destroying Konoha to intending to protect Konoha, was because he met Itachi again. Together, the two brothers defeated Kabuto Orochi who controlled the reincarnation of Itachi, and finally understood Itachi's thoughts. After all, he was still influenced by his brother throughout his life.

But now, Itachi's hatred has already faded with Sasuke personally killing him. The truth about the Uchiha genocide has also been mixed with many people and things, and finally ended with Danzo's death. For Sasuke now, rebuilding the Uchiha clan is the biggest goal. The reason why he is working outside the village now is just to find as many useful secrets as possible.

Therefore, if he sees information that may threaten Konoha at this time, this proud Uchiha master will not sit idly by.

"The Sixth Generation sent a communication. It seems that the other villages are not planning to assist Konoha for free. In other words, they still believe that this matter is just a trouble for Konoha alone."

In the conference room of the Hokage Building, Hinata, who was sitting on the elders' seat, frowned slightly. Since it was a major issue related to the progress of the Five Shadows Conference, it was obviously not something that could be solved by a single elder. After all, mobilizing supplies required the use of common wealth. It's a big event, so now not only Shimura Lin and Nara Shikaku have arrived, but also the rest of the family heads.

"From this point of view, the direction of the talks is still not optimistic. If you agree rashly, it will not only damage Konoha's face, but also greatly reduce the international prestige of Konoha ninjas. Supplies and other things are secondary. This clearly shows that other The village hopes to use this to weaken Konoha's conspiracy."

Nara Shikaku added worriedly, as a large ninja village, but its own rebellious ninjas are unable to solve it, and they have to spend materials and ask other villages for help. This kind of reputation damage is difficult to estimate. If you really agree, then the ninjas of Konoha Village will be completely unable to hold their heads high from now on.

"In the final analysis, it is because the attacking Uchiha Madara did not attack other villages. Even if we say that he will cause damage to the entire ninja world, there is not much real evidence."

Asuma, who was the chairman of the family, couldn't help but sigh. Konoha has developed too fast in the past two years, and it has always been known as the leader of the five great ninja villages. It doesn't take more than a day or two to attract people's hatred. Although the attack on Akihabara this time involved many business leaders from other countries, these businessmen were not so reliable after all. Perhaps some ambitious people may plan to take advantage of Konoha's decline to vigorously develop their own business platforms to win the future.

Of course, due to the situation and the balance of the world, other villages will definitely help Konoha in the end, but the price of this help is difficult to calculate. The only thing the Leaf Village can do now is how to reduce this price to the lowest acceptable range.

"No, I think there is one more thing they will care about. Although it is equally important to us, it is much better than accepting this blackmail of losing both fame and fortune."

Prepare at least two feasible plans for everything. This is the best guarantee to ensure the smooth progress of the plan. Of course, Hinata will not deviate from it. Even if she thinks that Sasuke has a high probability of catching up with the Five Shadows Conference, there must always be another plan. : "The biggest reason why the rest of the countries have not taken the tailed beasts' disappearance seriously so far is that they believe that the Akatsuki organization and Madara cannot effectively utilize the tailed beasts' chakra in a short time, but this is obviously no longer worthy of trust. Judging from Madara's ability, I am afraid that the tailed beast that was taken away by him can be used long ago. If it seems like this, if the seven tailed beasts that have disappeared so far can be used together, Madara's power is enough to destroy any other After knowing this fact, the other four Kages must not be able to sit still, right?"

There is no doubt that Hinata's plan made Nara Shikaku and the family heads below him subconsciously stunned. Yes, the reason why other villages are still bargaining with Konoha so far is that they still do not think that Madara can destroy all other villages. This is indeed a kind of luck. After all, the stronger the power, the greater the price. Maybe other people think that Madara was seriously injured and unable to spare after severely damaging Konoha.

But if they knew that Madara might be able to use the power of the seven tailed beasts, it would be enough to prove that the other party still had plenty of energy left, and naturally they would have to consider the other party's next plan.

"Indeed, Madara was a strong man who was able to truly tame the Nine-Tails on his own. It is not surprising that he has the same control over other tailed beasts. But... if we want to prove the power of the tailed beasts in a short time, To use, we may still need an instance..."

Hyuga Hiashi, the chairman of the family, naturally wanted to echo his daughter's speech, but the second half of the other party's sentence was obviously directed at the third Konoha elder who had uncharacteristically not spoken so far - Shimura Lin.

"I know... that Konoha can provide information about me to the other Four Kages if necessary... including the fact that I can transform the Kyuubi's chakra using Fujijutsu."
