Chapter 96: Pigeons Occupy Crane's Nest  

"What a beautiful place, but it's full of villains. Cherish the rest of your days."

The only one in the Star Ninja Village that Sasuke is interested in is Natsuhi, and what do the others have to do with him?

The Limit Stone is still absorbing the power of starlight and undergoing some kind of wonderful transformation, so Sasuke didn't act immediately.

In Konoha, Sasuke defected not long ago, and Tsunade has just inherited the position of Hokage.

The summoning beast outside the window woke up Tsunade, who was concentrating on correcting documents.

A scroll of commission was tied to the feet of the black summoning beast, with a star logo inlaid on it.

"Star Ninja Village? Why would these guys ask us for help?"

The situation of Star Ninja Village in recent years is not optimistic. There are internal troubles and external threats.

How many ninja villages have hired the stone in their village? Aren't they afraid that Konoha might seize the stone?

Tsunade thought again and again and decided to send a team of people to go there. The mission came to her, so there was no reason not to accept it.

At this time, Naruto still had a childish face and was eating a lunch box outside.

"Hey, Naruto, why are you still eating? It's almost time to gather." Sakura was learning medical skills, so she was not on the mission, but it didn't affect her complaining about Naruto.

Naruto put a piece of bread into his mouth with a big bite. "By the way, Sakura, Star Ninja Village is a ninja village. Why do they still hire us?"

"What's so difficult to understand? Star Ninja Village is just a small ninja village, and it's inevitable that they have a shortage of manpower. They must have encountered something difficult before asking us for help."

"Hahaha, I like difficult things the most." Naruto jumped up excitedly when he heard that this trip was extraordinary.

The team was initially finalized, and Naruto followed Neji's team to do the mission, but he had to obey the command of the senior ninja Neji.

Neji looked at the letter from Tsunade, and his veins jumped. The Hokage really knew how to find things for him and added Naruto in the middle of the journey.

"This guy is more like a relative than me. He didn't know how difficult Naruto was. If he wanted him to listen to him, he would only dare to dream about it."

Several people were about to arrive at the Star Ninja Village, but there was a long rift in front of them, and the yellow gas covering the entire canyon was floating in it.

"Hahaha, Uncle Naruto arrived first." Just when Naruto was about to cross the canyon, Akahoshi, who had been waiting for a long time, stopped him in time.

"Wait, Konoha's ninja." Akahoshi shouted loudly. He didn't want this kid to die before he was squeezed dry of his value.

Akahoshi originally planned to ask Ang to pick up the Konoha ninja, but he couldn't wait any longer.

Since an explosion two days ago, the place where the Limit Stone fell was covered by a black barrier, and no one could enter.

Those who were good at spying were turned into gray smoke by the barrier. If he couldn't use the Limit Stone to practice, what was the point of him killing the third generation of Hoshikage? He was killed by the third generation of Hoshikage because he forbade the activation of the stone for practice.

Akahoshi, who was desperate, asked Konoha for help, not only to deal with Natsuhi who had been trying to steal the stone, but also because the enemy in the dark was the most terrifying. He didn't believe that Natsuhi could master this kind of profound barrier technique.

"Peacock magic, wings." A pair of chakra wings appeared behind Akahoshi, and he crossed the crack and came to them in front of them in the shocked eyes of several people.

"Hello everyone, the situation is urgent, please put on your gas masks and follow me." Akahoshi took out several sets of protective gear from the sealing scroll and then slowly explained.

When Naruto heard that the gas under the canyon was poisonous, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

Thinking carefully, his actions just now were really dangerous. "Uncle, you are a good person. You actually waited for us here."

"Hahaha, is that so? The villagers all praise me like this." Akahoshi smiled. This habitual flatterer really doesn't know how to live or die.

After solving the enemy, I will deal with you severely. Along the way, Akahoshi told Neji about the situation in the village. He told him everything he should tell him in detail without any omissions. Akahoshi cleverly avoided everything he shouldn't tell him.

"This matter started a few days ago. After a big explosion, a black barrier appeared where the stone was placed." Akahoshi frowned. "Anyone who tries to get close will have a bad end."

"Then why don't you do it yourself, uncle?" Naruto interrupted.

You damn well deserve to die! If I go out in person, won't I die? Who will lead the Star Ninja Village to become the sixth largest ninja village in the future?

Akahoshi was too lazy to bother with this yellow-haired kid who was asking for attention. He thought that he would not save him if he had known earlier and let him be poisoned by the gas.

"Don't worry, since we have accepted this mission, we will find a way to help you get the stone back."

Neji always felt that this matter was strange, but he couldn't explain it clearly. It seems that this trip to the Star Ninja Village is not that simple.

After entering the village, Naruto asked to go and see the stone. Akahoshi had no choice but to let Ang take them there. Watching the few people go away, Akahoshi had a sneer on his lips.

In order to better absorb the mysterious energy released by the dangerous stone, the Star Ninja Village also specially built a training room, which placed a football-sized stone with many irregular holes on it.

Usually, a group of people would practice chakra around it, but now there was only a handsome man in white clothes here.

Sasuke leaned against the wall and occasionally glanced at the stone, which was called "star" by the outside world. This chakra was indeed from the Ten Tails, but it was contained in the stone. Sasuke couldn't help but guess that this stone was not accidentally dropped by the Sage of Six Paths when he used the Chibaku Tensei to seal his mother. If so, it would be interesting.

"This chakra..." Hmm! Although it was tiny, Sasuke still noticed it. It was Naruto's.

Looking at the Naruto jumping among the gravel, Sasuke wanted to laugh for some reason. But his attention was immediately attracted to Tenten, that's right.

Sasuke picked up the Kusanagi sword. He was bored and was going to go out and play ninja games with these "wet" kids.

Neji stopped outside the barrier, less than a centimeter apart from it, and it was very dangerous. He almost touched the barrier with his body.

It's not that he is skilled and bold, but Naruto accidentally bumped into him. If it weren't for Neji's high quality, he would have already started to berate Naruto.

"Naruto, don't bump into him. A ninja must stay calm at all times, otherwise his achievements will not be too high."

Neji said earnestly. He just hoped that Naruto could change his temper.

Because he saw that since Sasuke defected, Tsunade-sama had stuffed Naruto into his team, obviously asking him to take care of him more. In addition, Naruto had helped him before, so Neji really regarded him as a friend.

"Neji, I know. So should we rush in directly?" Naruto pointed at the barrier, a little eager to try.

Okay, it turned out that talking for a long time was in vain. Neji stopped talking and carefully studied how to break the barrier. Black barrier?

According to the barrier chapter he read in the ninjutsu volume, the black barrier is nothing more than concentration, but it is obviously not any of them.

"Neji, have you thought of a way?" Naruto was a little impatient. Xiao Li also looked over, but he was not as inconsiderate as Naruto. Neji looked worried and probably had no clue.

"No, at least not at the moment. We can check the surroundings and see if we can find some clues."

Neji thought for a moment and said. This is the only way to do it now. We can't just listen to Naruto and rush forward together.

Isn't that courting death? He is not as tough as Naruto, who always escapes death.
