In the Country of Rice, the city where the Daimyo resided. The city was bustling with people, and the shops on the road were shouting.
"This place is really bustling! There are so many people here, although it's not as good as Kiba. "Aoyama and the other two shuttled through the crowd. Yamafeng was fine, but Takuo was uncomfortable.
Takuo was a special ability user in the Aburame Clan. His body contained poisonous nano-level insects, so he had antibodies to the toxin. If other people were infected with the toxin, they would die due to the destruction of their cells.
That was why Takuo was wearing a protective suit, and he had never been to a crowded place. Now that he was walking in the crowd, he felt uncomfortable.
Aoyama noticed Takuo's expression and frowned. "Yamafeng, Takuo, let's go somewhere else. There are no traces of Shinobu here."
After leaving the densely populated downtown area, the pedestrians on the road instantly became sparse. The surrounding buildings also became more dilapidated, or rather, they had a sense of age, but they had a different kind of scenery.
"Why hasn't Qianyu-sama returned yet? Didn't he say he would be back soon?" Aoyama was worried, and he kept praying that Orochi Maru wasn't in the village. As long as Orochi Maru wasn't there, no one could stop Qianyu-Sama.
But if Orochi Maru was in the Shinobu Village, and this psychopath who was used to walking at the forefront of humanity, Qianyu-Sama's life would depend on Orochi Maru's mood.
Aoyama knew that the Shinobu Village was Orochi Maru's disguise, but he couldn't say it out loud. After all, everything had to be based on evidence. He couldn't directly say that the Shinobu Village was created by Orochi Maru. After all, with his identity, Orochi Maru shouldn't have known about it.
"Qianyu-sama didn't say he would be back soon, right? Aoyama, why do you look so impatient? "Yamafeng looked at Aoyama suspiciously. He felt that Aoyama didn't seem right.
"Yes, I'm a little irritated. Probably because I'm not acclimatized to the environment. It's because I'm not used to the environment. "Aoyama found a lame excuse to dodge the question. She still looked dispirited.
Although Mountain Fengfeng was confused, if Aoyama didn't want to say anything, he wouldn't force him. Just as he was about to comfort him, his expression suddenly changed. He crouched down and used his sensing skill.
"There are seven people in front … No, there are only five people left. They are Chakra, and they seem to be rather powerful. It seems that a battle had happened, or perhaps, the battle has already ended. They are here."
Feng said hurriedly.
Aoyama raised her head abruptly. Five figures appeared in front of her one by one. The steps were covered in moss, and the thick trees on both sides swayed in the sunset.
Four men and one woman were dressed in the same way. They were all wearing gray kimonos with purple belts around their waists. One of them had six arms and was wearing a Shinobu forehead protector. Another one was a red-haired female ninja, one had a huge body, one had hair covering his eyes, and the last one was a white-haired ninja with two red moles on his forehead.
"Eh? Who are these three people? They seem to be ninjas, but they don't have forehead protectors. "The only red-haired female ninja looked at Aoyama's group excitedly.
"Should we get rid of these guys? Maybe they are also spies from those big ninja villages, Kimimaro. "The female ninja looked at the white-haired boy in the middle of the group.
"Aoyama, what should we do? Should we fight? It seems that they should be ninjas from Shinobu village. They have a lot of Chakra, and their strength is close to that of a Special Jonin. "Feng asked in a low voice. Beside him, Takane had already put on a defensive posture.
Aoyama looked at the five people in front of him in surprise. The five Shinobu were Orochi Maru's men, and they were the ones who defeated Kiba's group in the early stage. Especially Kimimaro, he didn't show how strong his Shikkotsumyaku was before he died of illness. He didn't expect to meet him here.
"Don't fight with them easily. It's not clear whether Shinobu is an enemy or a friend. Just be prepared." Aoyama held the hilt of Hyorinmaru and looked at Kimimaro vigilantly.
"Who are you? What are you doing in the Land of Rice? Speak honestly. "His voice was cold, without a trace of emotion. Kimimaro stared at Aoyama.
"We're just passing by. We will leave the Land of Rice soon." Aoyama's tone was also cold. He didn't like being questioned like this.
"Is that so?"
Kimimaro looked at Aoyama indifferently and didn't make a move. He just slowly walked past Aoyama. Although his four companions looked fierce, no one made a move and left behind Kimimaro.
"Hey! Kimimaro, why did you let those three guys go? "After walking a distance, the only female ninja, Toyo, was very dissatisfied.
"Toyo, shut your mouth. Do you want to cause trouble for Orochi Maru -sama? Orochi Maru -sama said that we shouldn't attract too much attention from the big villages. Shinobu's base is very important now. Those three guys are strong. They shouldn't be from a small village. Even if the five of us attack together, we won't be able to take them down in a short time. It will only attract unnecessary attention. "
"If anyone else breaks Orochi Maru -sama's plan, I will kill him myself, no matter which of the four of you it is. I would have killed him. Orochi Maru -sama's will is not to be violated. "Kimimaro looked back and stared at the four people with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Understood!" Toyo's expression also stiffened, but he answered obediently and didn't dare to say anything. The other three also looked at Kimimaro with fear.
"Aoyama, those guys aren't simple, especially the white-haired one, his murderous intent is amazing." Kaze Yamamoto sensed that Chakra was far away and said.
"Don't worry about them, we got useful information. Shinobu isn't weak. This is the key." Aoyama said quietly. The pressure shown by Kimimaro just now shocked Aoyama.
"Let's go back and wait for Senyu -sama to come back. We can't collect any useful information now." After meeting Kimimaro, Aoyama was even less interested in this kind of useless information collection work. It's better to go back and practice ninjutsu.
Kaze took a look and didn't have any opinion. Anyway, they walked around for a day and didn't find anything. The five guys just now were enough.
In the most luxurious hotel in the Land of Rice, Aoyama had to admit that Senyu knew how to enjoy himself. If there was a better place, he would never stay in a worse place.
In a single room, Aoyama was holding the scroll given to him by Danzō. There were quite a lot of things recorded in it, and all kinds of experiences were very helpful for Aoyama to develop Shunpo. It's a pity that the scroll left by Nidaime can't be taken out of the village. But Aoyama has been studying it for nearly a year, so it didn't affect him much.
"Rankyaku … Geppō (Geppō), it would be great if I can develop Geppō (Geppō), but I feel that the difficulty is too high. Furthermore, compared to Geppō (Geppō), that technique is the most important.
Aoyama hesitated for a moment and finally insisted on the original plan. He knew that the cost of Shunpo was not proportional to the harvest, but this was only the foundation of the technique, the technique that Aoyama has always wanted to develop.
"I must not be shaken. That technique, if I complete that technique, my strength will definitely be greatly improved, and with the deepening of my mastery of wind and water Chakra, I always feel that the power of Hyorinmaru is also increasing. Is it my illusion?"
Looking at the long sword in his hand, Aoyama fell into deep thought.
