Looking at the mountain in front of him, Hyōjin showed a thoughtful expression.
The prosperity of Muye is far greater than that of the other major shinobi villages, so Muye is surrounded by villages, markets, and various trade routes. It is not easy to find a place to hide outside of Muye Village.
Hyōjin visited many places and finally stopped in front of this mountain.
This mountain is called Hazel City Mountain, located southwest of Muye Village, about 30 miles away from Muye Village. With Hyōjin's Yin Release, it will only take him a moment to make a round trip.
"Setting the prison here, not too far nor too close, it's just right!"
Hyōjin murmured softly.
This prison is not only a place to imprison the Uchiha Clan, but also a laboratory for Hyōjin to conduct experiments on the Uchiha Clan, so it must be very hidden.
Since it is a laboratory, anything is possible.
Considering that the Uchiha Clan may awaken their Mangekyou Sharingan in the prison, this prison cannot be too close to the village. Otherwise, if a Susanoo suddenly appears in the prison and alarms the ninjas of the village, then the prison will immediately be exposed.
After pondering for a while, Hyōjin slowly printed the hand seals and entered the Tenseigan Chakra Mode.
Flying into the air, Kuroto followed the undulating veins of Hazel City Mountain, using the Tenseigan to observe all the way, and finally found a natural karst cave on the side of the mountain.
Landing on the ground, Hyōjin gently stroked the rock wall while using the Tenseigan to observe the karst cave inside the rock wall.
After some careful observation, Kuroto confirmed that this karst cave is naturally formed, deep in the belly of the mountain, and there is no other way to connect to the outside world except for the underground rock layer.
In other words, if he wanted to use this natural karst cave, Hyōjin would have to cut through the rock wall and manually dig a passage to the karst cave.
Originally, Hyōjin was prepared to dig a large cave in the belly of the mountain. Now that he had discovered this naturally formed cave, it saved him a lot of trouble. Therefore, he immediately condensed a Truth-Seeking Jade, clenched it in his right hand, and growled, "Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!"
In an instant, a golden light sword appeared in his right hand.
In the face of the indestructible Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, even the sturdy rocks were as soft as tofu, easily sliced apart.
Swinging his sword again and again, Hyōjin went deeper and deeper into the mountain amidst the dust and stone fragments. Not long after, he created a two-meter-tall and twenty-meter-long tunnel.
Entering the natural karst cave, Hyōjin circled around inside and began to plan the layout of the prison in his mind.
…
A few days later, Zhishui came to Hyōjin's house.
After inviting Zhishui into the house, Hyōjin asked, "How's the information?"
Zhishui quickly said, "I've already found out Hideki's whereabouts. Tomorrow, he will go out of the village. This is a good opportunity, we can ambush him on the road."
Hyōjin took out a map, spread it on the table, and said, "Why is he going out of the village? Which route will he take? "
Zhishui quickly pointed out on the map, "This is the route!"
Following the route Zhishui pointed out, Hyōjin's eyes quickly fell on the ruins marked on the map, and said, "He wants to go to the 'Land of Cats'?"
The 'Land of Cats' is the settlement of a group of ninja cats, located in the ruins of an abandoned town.
This group of ninja cats are good at forging ninja tools and making all kinds of strange weapons. Their products are deeply loved by the Uchiha Clan, so they are also the most common summoning beasts of the Uchiha Clan.
Uchiha Shinichi's summoning beast, Moneymaker, is a ninja cat in the Land of Cats.
Zhishui nodded, "Well, I haven't found out what he's going to do, but I guess he's going to order shurikens, kunai, and other ninja tools from Grandma Cat!"
Hyōjin asked, "What about the witness?"
For Hyōjin, it doesn't matter where he does it.
But considering that he wants to put the blame on Amatsukami, he has to choose a suitable witness at the place where he does it.
Zhishui pointed on the map again, "This is a ninja tool throwing ground of our Uchiha Clan, it's on the edge of the outer wall of the village. I guess Hideki won't leave the village through the main gate, and this area is under the control of our Uchiha Police Force, so he will most likely use this area to leave the village!"
Hyōjin asked to confirm, "Your plan is to ambush him near this training ground, and then use the Uchiha clansmen who are training in the training ground to act as witnesses of the incident?"
Zhishui nodded.
Staring at the map and combing through the plan, he didn't find any obvious loopholes, so Hyōjin said, "Okay, let's do it!"
The next day at dusk.
Both Hyōjin and Zhishui changed into Amatsukami's uniform and lurked in the woods near the Uchiha Clan's training ground.
Looking at Hyōjin's mask, Zhishui asked curiously, "Senpai, why did you change your mask this time?"
"Ahem," Hyōjin coughed twice and said with a smile, "Remember, I'm now the leader of Amatsukami, 'Yama', not the previous' Suijin '."
Zhishui was still a little puzzled, "Why do you want to play different roles?"
Hyōjin casually said, "Since it's an organization, it can't have only one member, so I have to play different roles and disguise myself!"
Zhishui expressed her understanding, "So that's how it is."
If an organization always had only one member active outside, it would inevitably raise suspicions after a long time.
Time passed, and the sun gradually set in the west.
Seeing that the sky was getting darker, Hyōjin asked Zhishui, "Will he really leave the village today?"
Zhishui also wasn't too sure, "According to the news I heard, he should be leaving by now, but I'm not sure why he hasn't appeared yet."
Looking around, Suijin asked again, "He wouldn't have left the village from somewhere else, would he?"
Zhishui shook his head, "I don't think so."
Just as Zhishui was about to explain to Hyōjin why he was so sure that Hideshu Uchiha would leave the village from here, a sneaky figure suddenly appeared in their field of vision.
Hyōjin said to himself, "He's here!"
Zhishui nodded lightly.
The figure that suddenly appeared in their field of vision was none other than Hyōjin and Zhishui's target, Hideshu Uchiha.
At this time, Hideshu Uchiha wasn't wearing the uniform of the Uchiha Clan's police force. Instead, he was wearing a gray cloak without any clan insignia or logo. His sneaky appearance made people feel that there was something wrong with him.
