After treating Hyōjin's wounds, Red Bean understood each other's situation. She didn't say anything more and quietly returned to her room.
Kuroto, on the other hand, was lying on the bed, thinking about what happened today.
There was no doubt that today's mission was a trap, and the Sand Crypsis was also involved. If it wasn't for Sasori's interference, he would have to face the assassination team of the Sand Crypsis today.
Perhaps, if necessary, Captain Naruichi Mitsui next to him would also be involved!
As for why the Sand Crypsis was involved in Muye's cleansing operation, Hyōjin pondered for a while and came up with the answer.
The Four Generations Of Kazekage of the Sand Crypsis was hastily promoted because of the disappearance of the Three Generations Kazekage.
Without the pressure of war, the Four Generations Of Kazekage was bound to weaken the influence of the Three Generations Kazekage in the Sand Crypsis. Therefore, the Sand Crypsis Village actually had the need to cleanse their own people, and this need was much stronger than Muye's.
Moreover, after the war, the Sand Crypsis had the intention to form an alliance with Muye.
This also explained why the Sand Crypsis participated in the cleansing operation on Muye's side. The highest level of both sides had obviously reached some kind of agreement to help each other clean up the abandoned children.
This could not only prevent the hands of their own people from being stained with the blood of their fellow villagers, but also give them an excuse to shirk responsibility when something went wrong.
After thinking about this, Hyōjin also understood that even if the Danzō was the one in charge of this cleansing operation, the Three Generations Kazekage must have tacitly agreed or knew about it.
Otherwise, the Danzō alone would not have the ability to bypass the village and negotiate such a major operation with the Sand Crypsis.
Hyōjin was shocked and angry at the thought of so many people being heartlessly abandoned by the village.
It could be said that 90% of these people were innocent. Only a small portion of them actually participated in Orochi Maru's human experiments, and most of them were like Hyōjin, who participated in some peripheral experimental projects.
The real core projects that involved bloody human experiments were almost all done by Orochi Maru himself. There were very few people who could participate in them. Even Hyōjin was not qualified to get involved.
It was not that Hyōjin was trying to shirk his responsibility. It was just that apart from Orochi Maru, few people in the village had the ability to carry out complex human experiments independently.
"Why did the village go so far this time?"
The more Hyōjin thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. It was impossible for the village's higher-ups not to know that this cleansing operation would affect many innocent people, but they still did it. There must be some reason that Hyōjin did not know.
Then he thought about Orochi Maru's voluntary defection, and the abnormal behavior of the Danzō, who had always been in a cooperative relationship with Orochi Maru.
Kuroto suddenly felt that Orochimaru might have really done something that angered the heavens and the people, so he was investigated by the village's top management hysterically.
No matter what the reason was, the cleansing had already begun. Hyōjin had to restrain his scattered thoughts and calmly sort out the various threats that he would face at the moment.
The threat that was close at hand was undoubtedly the cleansing of the village.
Since the cleansing had already begun, the village would not end it anticlimactic. So even if Hyōjin escaped this time, there would be another one waiting for him, and it would be more intense each time.
In addition, the threat of Sasori could not be ignored.
Three Generations Kazekage was once known as the 'strongest Kazekage', but the result was that they fell in the hands of Sasori. It can be seen how strong Sasori's sneak attack and assassination ability is.
Now that he has become hostile with Sasori, Hyōjin has to be wary of Sasori's plot.
And thinking about it, the most urgent thing is how the village will react to the death of Naruichi Mitsui. Once the village suspects that Hyōjin did it, then Hyōjin's only way to go is to defect.
"I don't know if the play I played can be hidden from the village."
Hyōjin letting Three Generations Kazekage puppets act as wandering ninjas was actually a very good move. Because of the previous war, there were a large number of wandering ninjas who defected everywhere, so it is normal to encounter wandering ninjas occasionally on the border, where the control of each village is very weak.
In addition, the other two squad captains in the outpost who were suspected to be Roots saw Three Generations Kazekage puppets disguised as wandering ninjas with their own eyes, and they even fought with them, which made Hyōjin's words more convincing.
After thinking about it all night, Hyōjin found a gap the next day and recovered the Three Generations Kazekage puppets hidden near the outpost and sealed them in a portable scroll.
At the moment, the outpost is seriously reduced.
Among the only four ninjas left, there are two injured people, Red Bean and Hyōjin, so the village will send a support team at any time, and the support team may even be on the way.
And the support team will inevitably have a scouting-type ninja, if Three Generations Kazekage puppets continue to wander near the outpost, it is likely that they will bump into the support team and be exposed.
In the final analysis, the Three Generations Kazekage puppets are too eye-catching.
Not to mention Hyōjin, even the bold Sasori does not dare to use them on a daily basis, and once they are exposed in the hands of Hyōjin, not to mention losing a trump card, it is difficult to explain.
Although Three Generations Kazekage are dead, they were once the Kazekage of the village, representing the face of the Sand Crypsis Village.
Even if it is only to maintain the authority of one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, the Sand Crypsis Village will find the Three Generations Kazekage puppets at any cost and kill the owners of the Three Generations Kazekage puppets.
Hyōjin, who has been listed as the target of cleansing by the village, does not want to provoke the Sand Crypsis Village anymore.
Anyway, at present, only Hyōjin and Sasori know that Three Generations Kazekage puppets were made into human puppets, and Sasori, as the culprit who killed Three Generations Kazekage puppets and made them into human puppets, will certainly not take the initiative to publicize this matter.
Moreover, in terms of Sasori's temperament, it is estimated that he is still thinking about how to take back the Three Generations Kazekage puppets from Hyōjin, so as long as Hyōjin does not make a mistake, the matter of Three Generations Kazekage puppets will not be exposed for a while.
In the next few days, everything was calm.
Taking advantage of this little breathing time left, Hyōjin closed his door to study the ability of the Tenseigan to control puppets.
After many attempts, he found that the flexibility of the puppet depends entirely on the amount of Tenseigan Chakra he infuses. In short, the more Chakra's amount he infuses, the higher the flexibility of the puppet.
Hyōjin doesn't know much about puppets.
He doesn't know if the Three Generations Kazekage puppets belong to the relatively high-end puppets. In short, just simply activating it requires at least half of Hyōjin's Chakra to maintain it. If he wants to go further, if he wants the Three Generations Kazekage puppets to have the ability to use Magnet Release, he needs to consume at least two-thirds of Hyōjin's Chakra to maintain it.
In other words, in the state of activating the Three Generations Kazekage puppets, Hyōjin can only retain at most half of Chakra's amount, barely reaching the level of an elite chunin's Chakra.
Hyōjin has also tried to infuse his whole body's Chakra into the Three Generations Kazekage puppets to see if this puppet can go further and have a small amount of autonomous consciousness.
But the result was disappointing.
He doesn't know if his total amount of Chakra is too little, or for other reasons, anyway, even if he infuses all of his Chakra, the Three Generations Kazekage puppets have not changed further. At best, they are more flexible than when he infuses two-thirds of his Chakra.
