The weather was so cold, Mū had a very hard time with the weather. He walked besides Kentaro.
The two of them hoped to reach the land of lightning in a week, but it seemed close to impossible.
They could hardly see five meters in front of them. Kentaro relayed on the map while walking, like this, they would not lose themselves.
"I didn't expect the land of snow to have such an extreme weather."
"It's like this, Mū. We have to keep walking and maybe help the people of this land."
Kentaro wanted to do something for them by weakening the Kazahana clan.
"You always want to play the hero, don't you?" Mū said sarcastically.
"Shut up, Mū. Now that we know what is happening here, we could do something for them."
Kentaro felt the prescence of someone coming towards them.
"You can't even manipulate your chakra, how are you going to help them?"
Mū noticed that Kentaro was not paying attention to what he was saying, but to their surroundings.
The sound of someone walking on snow became clearer by the second. The figure approached, they could not see who it was.
"Who is it! If you come closer, I'll kill you!" Kentaro began threatening the person.
But the footsteps didn't stop, finally, they could see who it was.
"It's a deer." Mū could distinguish it faster than Kentaro.
The deer came closer, it was a weird deer. The deer was blue and had white crystal-like eyes.
The deer stopped when it was a few centimeters away from them.
"This deer is made of...ice?" Kentaro touched the deer's noise.
The next second, the deer exploded and sharp pieces of ice were sent everywhere. The sharp ice broke when it came to contact against Kentaro's skin.
Mū had reacted quick enough to avoid dead, a piece of ice had nearly sliced his throat.
"Try to find where the enemy hides, I will protect you from the sharp ice with my body."
From the left a shower of piercing ice came with very high speed. Mū's eyes opened wide in surprise.
Kentaro jumped high and landed in front of Mū, the ice could not pierce his skin.
Every time they would be attacked, Mū noticed that the enemy changed places almost instantly.
He had an idea. Mū formed hand seals and created a large tornado that swept everything around the area.
The fog dispersed and they could see in around them in a radius of fifty meters. Thirty meters from them, they saw six men on the ground.
Kentaro charged at them with his enormous speed and punched them to death. He only let one live.
"WHO ARE YOU" Kentaro used the most mencaing tone he could, he showed his sharp teeth at the same time.
The Shinobi was terrified, he soon began to talk.
"I am a member of Kazahana clan! If you kill me, my brethren will find you in a matter of days."
Kentaro grabbed the Kazahana by the throat and lifted him in the air with one arm.
Mū walked next to Kentaro and asked a couple of questions to the Kazahana.
"Are your clansmen around the area? Since your clan has killed all the other feudal lords, are the clans in the country supporting you?"
Kentaro squeezed the Kazahana's throat a little bit. He began punching on Kentaro's arm.
"Answer."
"I don't think that he can answer if you squeeze on his throat, Kentaro."
Kentzro stopped squeezing and the Kazahana took his breath.
"Our...men are...around here. Some of the other clans are...against our rule."
Kentaro dropped him to the ground. Mū came closer and placed his hand on the Kazahana's head.
With his other hand, he formed hand seals. Kentaro was looking forward to what he was going to do.
"From today onwards, your name will be zero. You will collect information for us and we will meet here every week."
Mū had taken control over the Kazahana's mind, it was a pretty useful jutsu.
'terrifying.' Kentaro had not expected that taking over someone's mind would be so easy.
The Kazahana stood up and left the area to return among his clansmen. Kentaro and Mū also left.
Kentaro had seen that a farmer's village was not far from where they were. The two of them ran until they arrived.
The village was in ruin, the whole place was burned and dead people were lying on the ground.
"Poor people, let's see if we can find some survivors."
Mū and Kentaro went through the village to look for survivors. Unfortunately, everyone was killed.
"The Kazahana Clan is cruel, even against farmers they have no pity. Let's get out of here." Mū wanted to go quickly, he didn't like what he was seeing.
Kentaro looked on the map and traveled to the next village with Mū, the same thing welcomed them.
After a couple of hours, Kentaro and Mū decided to rest. They saw a large icy mountain.
The two of them found a way and reached the top. When they got there, they saw hundreds of Shinobi eating and keeping themselves busy.
They noticed the two unfamiliar figures approaching, they grabbed their weapons and met with them.
"Who the hell are you! Are you part of the Kazahana clan!?"
Kentaro and Mū stopped walking and quickly presented themselves.
"No my friend, I am Kentaro and he is Mū. We come in peace, we have a...common enemy."
The hundreds of Shinobi did not believe them. From the back, a middle aged man made his way forward.
"I am Yukon, the leader of the alliance. If your enemy is the Kazahana Clan, then, you are the most welcome here."
The Shinobi did not lower their guards even though Yukon had welcomed Kentaro and Mū.
The two of them followed Yukon to his little tent and were given a cup of tea and a warm seat.
"Tell me friends, what brings you here?"
Kentaro and Mū faced Yukon, the leader of the alliance.
