Chapter 496 Enemy's Trails

"Stealing the corpse? What do they want to do? What is the use of the corpse? Is it for intelligence?" Chiriku was surprised.

A Shinobi's corpse hides a lot of confidential information. If it is Kekkei Genkai's user, they can even get the secret of Kekkei Genkai from it.

If the corpse's brain is not damaged, with some secret techniques, they can get the corpse's memory information.

For example, using the secret technique of the Yamanaka Clan.

But at this time, Nauma and the other three have been dead for many years, and their brain cells must have died.

Therefore, what can be useful are probably the cells in the corpse.

"Maybe for a certain Ninjutsu." Kakashi whispered.

"A certain Ninjutsu?" Chiriku is somewhat puzzled.

But Kakashi seems to know something.

In the Shinobi World, the one who is interested in the body of the deceased is only Orochimaru.

Edo Tensei requires the cells of the deceased Expert.

Kakashi walked over and picked up a piece of sawdust.

"Pakkun!"

"Yes, Kakashi."

"I'll leave it to you."

Kakashi said, throwing the sawdust to Pakkun.

After Pakkun sniffed it lightly, he looked towards a certain direction and said, "There!"

"Okay, everyone follow him."

Pakkun then started to run. Kakashi followed behind Pakkun, and everyone else also followed after them.

"Sakura-chan, what did Kakashi-sensei give to Pakkun?" Naruto asked puzzledly.

"It's sawdust. It should from the coffin."

"Sawdust?"

"Yes, , if the coffin is left in the ground for so long, it will inevitably be corroded and the outside would become fragile. When those Shinobi take the corpses away, they should be wiped off some of the sawdust on the surface of the coffins. The sawdust has the smell of the coffins, so Pakkun can find the enemy for us based on this smell."

"Wow, Kakashi-sensei is really amazing. He was able to discover this thing in an instant." Naruto exclaimed.

The keen observation ability is naturally acquired over time.

Chiriku and Kakashi is the one on the front, closely following behind Pakkun.

Then Naruto, and the others are behind and then Sai is at the very back.

Chiriku ran beside Kakashi and asked: "Kakashi-san, what is the certain Ninjutsu you just said? Why do it need Shinobi's body?"

"The Nidaime Hokage has developed a forbidden technique called Edo Tensei. That technique only needs the corpse or some of the cells of the deceased to bring their souls back to this world in a special way. At the same time, the ones brought back would be controlled by the user for their own use."

"What? There is such a terrifying Ninjutsu on this world?" Chiriku was shocked.

"Well, after the Nidaime Hokage developed this Ninjutsu, he knew that it was dangerous, so he sealed it. It's just that one person later learned about this forbidden technique."

"Who is it?"

"Konoha's traitor, Orochimaru."

"It's him!"

Chiriku was shocked again.

He once saw Orochimaru on the battlefield, and the powerful pressure he released was never forgotten by him.

At that time, although he was only a teenager, his strength is not weak.

However, when he saw Orochimaru from afar, he was already scared.

Chiriku knew that Orochimaru is a very terrifying man.

On a high mountain near the Fire Temple, five people stayed here, and four coffins were placed beside them.

The four coffins have their names written on them.

They are: Nauma, Tōu, Kitane, and Seito.

"Boss, do the four coffins we find this time meet Orochimaru-sama's requirements?" said a small middle-aged man.

"Do not worry, Saburo. The ones we got this time are four of the Twelve Guardian Shinobi. They all have Elite Jōnin-level strength. It is said that if these four people join hands, they can even destroy a small Shinobi Village. Even if it is Kage-level expert, they will suffer if they fight against these four at once. So there is absolutely no problem." Ichiro said.

"Really? That's good then, otherwise, we would have work hard for nothing." Saburo replied.

"Aniki, it seems that the level of this Fire Temple is not that good even if they are the largest temple in the Land of Fire. When we fight against them, only the abbot was a bit more powerful." Shiro said.

"Well, it's not very strange. After all, they are not a Shinobi Village," said Ichiro.

"That's true. Aniki, do you think they will find that the coffins were taken by us?" asked Shiro.

"Who knows, but even if they find out about it, it is estimated that we would have already returned to the Otogakure by then."

"Yeah, I wonder what Orochimaru-sama's reward would be." Shiro began to daydream.

"Aniki, why do think that Orochimaru-sama wants so many corpses?" Goro who was on the side asked.

"I don't know, but it's probably related to Orochimaru-sama's experiment. We don't to care so much about it and just complete the mission given by Orochimaru-sama."

"Okay."

At this time, Jiro who has not spoken suddenly opened his eyes and said: "Someone is coming!"

"What!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and quickly stood up.

"Jiro, what did you feel?" asked Ichiro.

"About seven people ran towards here. One of them has Chakra that is very familiar. It should be the abbot of the Fire Temple who had fought against us before."

"It's him? Did they find out about the coffins? How could it be so fast?" Ichiro said in surprise.

"I don't know, but their destination is very clear. They are coming here."

"Damn it, how did they find our trace?"

"Aniki, it's too late to say that, let's just get ready to fight them. The monks of the Fire Temple are not our opponents. Even if they come here, we won't lose."

"Yeah, that's true." Upon hearing, Ichiro calmed down, after all, they didn't suffer any loss when they fought against the people of the Fire Temple, and they are able to retreat easily.

"No, I am afraid it is not that simple this time. This kind of Chakra feeling, I am afraid that the rest of the enemies this time are not weakling. They are not the enemies we have encountered before." Jiro said as his expression turned serious.

"Jiro, what do you mean?" Ichiro asked nervously.

Jiro did not answer, but exclaimed: "They're here!"

As soon as the voice fell, directly from the tree on the side, eight figures appeared, the first of which has a very petite body. It is actually a dog!

"It seems that I am correct." Kakashi looked at the five people and four coffins in front of him with a smile on his face.

'Found them!'

Chiriku looked at the four coffins and said coldly: "Sure enough, your purpose is Nauma's and the others' body. You bastards, everyone is already dead, but you still refuse to let them go!"
