Speaking of which, this is the first time that Shuichi Hoshita has really carried out a mission alone.
Although he seemed to be alone when he was in the Root, there were other members of the Root following him.
And now, there is only a group of crows.
However, Shuichi Hoshita was glad that he brought this group of raised crows, otherwise he might really get lost.
The desert area is really difficult to walk!
...
Finally here!
On the third day, after avoiding several Sand Ninja strongholds, Shuichi Hoshita finally saw the Sand Village.
"I don't know how people live in this place where no one lives!"
Shuichi Hoshita spat out the sand in his mouth.
"During the Third Ninja World War, both Rock Ninja and Kirigakure attacked the Land of Wind, right?"
Hoshita Hideichi looked at the Sand Village from afar and thought to himself, "The Kirigakure is understandable, after all, the southern part of the Land of Wind is not entirely desert, but the northern part... can only be said to be to destroy the Sand Village, and then take over the task of the Land of Wind?"
After a short rest, Hoshita Hideichi summoned the crows in the sky, fed them water, food, and replenished their chakra.
Moreover, Hoshita Hideichi was more cautious, temporarily setting a seal on each crow to seal his chakra to prevent the crow from being detected when it entered the Sand Village.
When the time comes, the seal will be automatically lifted, and then it can become a crow clone.
This is Hoshita Hideichi's infiltration plan.
If this doesn't work, then he can only use the Toad Hirakage Manipulation Technique to find a lone Sand Ninja to infiltrate the Sand Village, but this requires waiting and takes more time.
After getting ready, more than a dozen crows flapped their wings and flew up, then dispersed and flew towards the Sand Village.
In less than a quarter of an hour.
Next to a garbage dump in the Sand Village, crows gathered and turned into Shuichi Hoshita, then jumped away.
After a moment, Shuichi Hoshita turned into an ordinary villager of the Sand Village and blended into the crowd.
Wandering aimlessly, Shuichi Hoshita secretly observed the Sand Village.
However, he did not appear alone in a certain place, so as not to attract attention.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Shuichi Hoshita saw a familiar figure.
That beautiful back, one of a kind!
Scorch Release Ye Cang!
However, after just one glance, Shuichi Hoshita withdrew his gaze.
On the other side, Ye Cang, who was shopping with his disciples, felt something and turned around, but saw only the flowing crowd, nothing unusual.
Her disciple Juan asked curiously: "Teacher, what's wrong?"
Ye Cang turned around and smiled: "Nothing?"
"Okay, the break is over, it's time to start training!"
...
After a rough tour of the Sand Village, Shuichi Hoshita set his sights on the building where the Kazekage worked.
The most suitable target to start with is the secretary who works next to the Kazekage.
Such a person would not be very strong in combat, and at the same time, he would most likely know the whereabouts of the Kazekage.
If that doesn't work, then he would attack the guards protecting the Kazekage.
But in this case, he would have to retreat once he attacked.
So.
At the beginning, Xingxia Xiuyi used different faces and followed others to pass by the Kazekage Building from different directions.
Then he turned into a little kid and played with other children next to the Kazekage Building.
Or he turned into a bird and jumped on the roof out of boredom.
Yes.
Xingxia Xiuyi can already turn into a bird and fly.
This is what the shadow clone learned by dissecting birds again and again, studying aerodynamics, and improving his wind escape ability, and then turning into a bird and jumping off the cliff again and again.
This also caused his progress in the [Transformation Master], which was originally very slow, to soar.
Because there are too many types of birds, and learning to turn into a bird and fly, then for any bird, it is already half successful!
Time passed little by little, and it soon fell at night.
Xingxia Xiuyi had already stepped on the point, turned into a small insect and hid in the dark of the balcony and waited quietly.
Near the dawn, the target finally came back.
Shuichi Hoshita heard the door open, and then jumped into the room.
The bathroom was steaming, and Shuichi Hoshita continued to wait.
Not long after, a naked woman walked into the bedroom, stretched herself and tucked herself into the bed.
Sand Village is a ghost place, hot during the day and cold at night.
Shuichi Hoshita appeared quietly and made seals with his hands.
Magic-Tree Binding Kill!
The woman lying on the bed was about to fall asleep when she found that she was tied to the bed by tree roots, and immediately opened her eyes.
"Dream?"
"No, it's an illusion!"
"There is an intruder!"
The woman was not an ordinary person, but a special ninja. She reacted quickly, but she couldn't solve this illusion.
Moreover, Shuichi Hoshita sat next to her, and placed a cold kunai on her slender white neck.
"Ms. Mami, you don't want to die quietly in your bed, and you don't wear any clothes, right?"
At this moment, Shuichi Hoshita appeared as a sand ninja.
Asami gritted her teeth: "You... are from Konoha, right?"
"I won't betray the village!"
Hoshita Shuichi chuckled: "What a smart woman, but usually women who are too smart die quickly, and miserably!"
Asami snorted: "As a ninja, you have long been prepared for death!" Hoshita
Shuichi's kunai slowly moved downwards, giving Asami goose bumps all over: "I believe in your preparedness, but you probably don't want to try my methods, right?"
"Although it's very cruel, I also have the intention to complete the mission."
Asami's body trembled and her face turned pale: "You devil!"
Hoshita Shuichi chuckled: "Don't worry, as long as you reveal the information, I won't touch you."
"Besides, this information is not confidential."
"So, please tell me, in the past month, has the Third Kazekage personally led people out of the village to carry out missions, and when was it?"
Asami was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "That's it?"
Hoshita Shuichi smiled and said: "Of course, so, it's very easy, right?"
Asami hesitated.
Hoshita Shuichi's kunai immediately went down.
"This bastard..."
Asami gritted her teeth, and then opened her mouth to spit out the itinerary of the Kazekage.
Hoshita Shuichi listened silently, but his brows frowned involuntarily.
Unlike Sarutobi Hiruzen who often stayed in the village, the Third Kazekage often went out of the village, but basically did not leave the Wind Country, and the people he brought were only the Kazekage Guards.
In the past month, the Kazekage has not been dispatched with Chiyo.
Unless Asami doesn't know, or Asami lied.
But the possibility of this is very low.
After Asami finished telling all the itineraries of the Kazekage in the past month, Hoshita Shuichi immediately made a seal.
Asami's eyes widened immediately.
Illusion-Nirvana Jingshe Jutsu!
Feathers were flying in front of her eyes. Asami, who was already in the illusion, suddenly felt heavy eyelids and slowly fell asleep.
Shuichi Hoshita left the bedroom and turned into a bird and flew away.
In the bedroom, from beginning to end, Asami's quilt was never lifted. Everything was just an illusion.
In the dark night, Shuichi Hoshita continued to act and attacked the Sand Ninjas one by one.
However, the targets he chose were basically Genin and Chunin, which indirectly confirmed the correctness of Asami's information.
Obviously, Asami did not deceive Shuichi Hoshita.
In the dark corner, Shuichi Hoshita, who felt that his chakra was almost consumed, released the Crow Clone Technique.
A dozen crows flapped their wings and flew into the night sky.
"Eh? How come there are so many crows all of a sudden?"
A patrolling Sand Ninja was surprised when he saw the flying crows.
But the captain of this team changed his face: "Something is wrong... Maki, report it immediately. It is very likely that the enemy has invaded the village!"
The captain led his men to chase the group of crows.
Maki was stunned for a moment, then he jumped to report.
Soon, the originally silent Sand Village seemed to come alive, and a senior ninja led a team to go out.
...
Outside the Sand Village, crows landed, and Shuichi Hoshita fed them again and replenished their chakra.
After the crows flew away, Shuichi Hoshita looked at the Sand Village: "We were discovered... They came quite quickly."
"But according to the information we have now, the previous speculation has been overturned. If the information from Inuzuka Jabu and others is correct, then the puppeteer who attacked Hatake Sakumo was not Chiyo." "
But it is impossible to determine whether the Kazekage took action."
"And was it a large-scale siege at that time?"
Looking at the approaching Sand Ninja, Shuichi Hoshita pinched his chin: "In fact, there is a very simple way to get the answer."
What a big deal!
To a certain extent, he changed the fate of Hatake Sakumo. Whether from an emotional point of view or this point, he could not accept the result that Hatake Sakumo disappeared or died unclearly.
Whether Konoha White Fang's strength has reached the level of Kage, Shuichi Hoshita doesn't know, but he is indeed an elite jonin of Konoha Ninja Village, a rising star like Tsunade, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and the three ninjas of Konoha all respect him.
It cannot be said that Konoha White Fang is the leader under Sarutobi Hiruzen in Konoha Village, but his strength and mission experience are indeed top-notch among Konoha jonin.
Such a person is not impossible to be killed, but it must be killed in a respectful way so that people can easily accept it.
… Soon,
the three Sand Ninjas who were tracking him arrived.
"Hey, who are you?"
"What are you trying to do in our village?"
"Surrender immediately, or we will be rude to you!"
The Sand Ninja captain shouted from a distance of more than ten meters.
Hoshita Shuichi took a step and disappeared in a flash.
"So fast!" "
Where did he go?"
The Sand Ninja captain exclaimed, looking up, left and right but couldn't find any trace of Hoshita Shuichi, and then there was a muffled sound behind him.
Looking back, he saw that his two subordinates had fallen.
Cold sweat rolled down his forehead, his knuckles holding the kunai turned white, and his throat was swallowing saliva.
Swish!
Hoshita Shuichi suddenly appeared in front of the Sand Ninjas, and their eyes met: "I, Hoshita Shuichi of Konoha!" The
Sand Ninja swallowed his saliva and was pinched by the neck by Hoshita Shuichi before he could speak, and then he was thrown to the ground and knocked out with a punch.
Three prisoners were taken!
"But the amount is a little insufficient..."
Hoshita Shuichi put the Five Elements Seal and the Heavy Seal on the three people one by one, and then continued to wait.
Not long after, another group of Sand Ninja arrived. The leader was obviously a jonin at first glance, not a simple one.
Hoshita Shuichi was too lazy to wait for the other party to talk nonsense. He drew out his katana, and his body was divided into three. The blade also lit up with blue streamers. The terrible temperature distorted the air and light around him.
In addition, Hoshita Shuichi rushed forward at an extremely fast speed, so that in the eyes of the Sand Ninja, the three figures not only had double images, but also distorted.
Three Days Moon Dance Modified - Three Fiery Sun Dance!
"So fast!"
The Sand Ninja Jonin was surprised and immediately shouted: "Be careful, this guy is not simple!"
Before the voice fell, he had already drawn his sword.
At this speed, it was too late to seal and use ninjutsu.
In the blink of an eye, three Hoshita Shuichis came to kill.
Clang!
Metal and iron clashed, and swords collided.
But the next moment, the pupils of the Sand Ninja Jounin dilated. The blade he applied wind chakra to was being cut by the opponent's sword.
"This temperature..."
The Sand Ninja Jounin's forehead was sweating, and then he heard the sound of falling to the ground behind him.
He knew without looking that his three subordinates were finished.
The Sand Ninja Jounin decisively abandoned his sword and jumped up, quickly throwing several shurikens in the air to buy time.
However, Shuichi Hoshita not only blocked the shurikens of the Sand Ninja Jounin with more outstanding ninja tool throwing, but also counterattacked at the same time, forcing the Sand Ninja Jounin who originally wanted to make a seal to give up the seal to avoid Shuichi Hoshita's shuriken.
Ding ding dang dang!
The sound of metal clashing, and the broken kunai fell to the ground.
The Sand Ninja Jounin was defeated by Shuichi Hoshita's two fire clones and had no power to fight back.
The opponent's speed was not slower than his, and his swordsmanship was terrible, and the kunai was easily cut off.
After a few rounds, the Sand Ninja jonin was soaked: "Where did this scary kid come from..."
"We must find a way to notify the village!"
The Sand Ninja jonin gritted his teeth and supported himself in a panic, waiting for the opportunity to fire a signal flare.
But Hoshita Hideichi did not give him a chance. The main body watching the battle suddenly disappeared, and then appeared behind the Sand Ninja jonin, knocking the latter unconscious with a knife.
The battle was over.
After releasing the clone, Hoshita Hideichi sealed the four captives one by one as before.
Looking at the seven captives lying on the ground, Hoshita Hideichi felt that it was almost done, especially with a jonin.
After splitting off the shadow clone and leaving it behind, Hoshita Hideichi jumped back and disappeared into the night.
Although he wanted to make a big deal, he would not put himself in danger.
Leaving the shadow clone is enough!
...
After waiting for a few minutes, Hoshita Hideichi suddenly looked up.
There were birds circling overhead.
"Summoning beasts..."
Without paying attention, Hoshita Hideichi continued to wait.
Soon two Sand Ninja teams arrived. After seeing the captives on the ground, they looked gloomy and did not attack rashly.
Maki, who also followed, saw that his leader and his companions were captured, and his face changed: "Captain..."
"Don't get close!"
With a loud shout, Maki was directly taken to the back.
"Hey, what do you want?"
A middle-aged Sand Ninja shouted: "State your demands, what do you want to release them?"
Hoshita Hideki nodded: "Very smart, then no more nonsense."
"I am Hoshita Hideki from Konoha..." As
soon as the voice fell, exclamations came from the Sand Ninja.
"Hoshita Hideki, the youngest Chunin and Special Jonin of Konoha, who is also offered a reward of 30 million by the Rock Ninja?"
"This guy is said to be only about ten years old?"
"Why did he come here and attack us?"
"Is this guy crazy? Too arrogant, dare to provoke our Sand Village like this!"
...
When Hoshita Hideki fought with the Sand Ninja, his strength was not very strong, but he left a deep impression on Luosha and Ye Cang.
But the Rock Ninja Village issued a reward for Hoshita Hideki, and his name was known to the Sand Ninja Village.
But that's all.
Very few people have actually seen Shuichi Hoshita. Even Ye Cang and the others don't know Shuichi Hoshita's true strength.
Although they were shocked by the actions of the Rock Ninja and Shuichi Hoshita's age, more Sand Ninjas were disdainful of it. A
special jonin around 10 years old?
It's just a name in vain!
But now... the Sand Ninjas who were looking at Shuichi Hoshita at this moment were both angry and deeply shocked.
They had seen how powerful Shuichi Hoshita was. After all, the captives on the ground were the naked results of the battle.
When the middle-aged Sand Ninja heard Shuichi Hoshita introduce himself, he immediately shouted, "Konoha's ninja... are you going to provoke a conflict and war between the two villages?"
Xingxia Shuichi chuckled: "Don't make it so serious, I just captured a few people, I didn't kill them."
"Of course, if you want to start a war, that's fine, just go ahead!"
The Sand Ninjas were speechless for a moment, but they were so angry!
This kid is too arrogant!
Xingxia Shuichi continued: "Let's continue with the previous topic... Call your Kazekage to see me, otherwise I will kill all these prisoners."
As soon as this sentence came out, the Sand Ninjas couldn't help but burst into anger.
"To see Lord Kazekage, using this method... this damn brat!"
"How could Lord Kazekage let you see him so easily, you bastard, are you here to assassinate Lord Kazekage?"
"Bastard, use smoke bombs, and then attack together, even if a few people are sacrificed, we must kill this brat. If we let him see Lord Kazekage in this way, it will be our shame!"
"Don't be impulsive, this guy may just be a clone!"
...
In the end, it was the middle-aged Sand Ninja who held down the other Sand Ninjas. He stared at Shuichi Hoshita: "Although I don't know what your purpose is, Lord Kazekage is not someone you can see casually!"
"Oh?"
Shuichi Hoshita narrowed his eyes, and then grabbed a prisoner who should be about the same age as him. With a light kunai, he cut his wrist and blood quickly flowed out.
Hideichi Hoshita's face turned cold: "It seems that you don't understand. I'm not negotiating with you."
"If you don't do what I ask, then watch them bleed to death one by one!"
Many Sand Ninjas changed color, and then suddenly someone threw a kunai: "Go to hell, kid!"
The middle-aged Sand Ninja's face changed, but it was too late to stop it.
Hideichi Hoshita sneered, raised his hand and easily caught the kunai, and threw it back at a faster speed, while adding wind escape chakra.
Puff! Hit
the center of the eyebrows!
The Sand Ninja who threw the kunai fell down with his eyes wide open.
"So fast..."
The Sand Ninjas were shocked and didn't dare to move for a while.
The middle-aged Sand Ninja gritted his teeth and shouted: "Maki, you go back and inform Lord Kazekage immediately!"
Maki nodded quickly. He didn't want to watch his companions die like this.
Hideichi Hoshita looked over in surprise when he heard the name "Maki". I'm sorry I didn't recognize him.
But at this moment, a cold voice sounded: "No need, Lord Kazekage already knows!"
Many Sand Ninjas made way, and a tall figure came into the sight of Shuichi Hoshita.
An old acquaintance!
Shuichi Hoshita chuckled: "Ye Cang, see you again!"
"It's you!"
Ye Cang snorted coldly, with shock hidden deep in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the one who made them suffer together with the yellow flash was Shuichi Hoshita, who was recently wanted by the Rock Ninja.
It seems that the previous intuition was not wrong.
At that time, it should be this kid who was observing her in the dark, just like in the River Country!
"Lord Kazekage is on his way, can he stop now?"
Ye Cang said.
Shuichi Hoshita nodded, very straightforward: "For the sake of old acquaintance, of course there is no problem."
As he said, he held the wrist of the Sand Ninja prisoner, and a green light lit up.
