An Unsettled Journey
Certainly...
They weren't the only ones who realized this...
The other Kage of the Five Great Ninja Villages also realized this at the same time!
"I never expected this guy to reappear after disappearing for so long. What is he after this?"
Besides Kirigakure...
The Kage of the other four major ninja villages all thought the same thing.
Why Ye Liangnai, a person whose rumors have been circulating for a long time, suddenly reappeared?
Is something about to happen?
They had a sense of unease about their situation!
Certainly...
Ye Liangnai's sudden appearance is absolutely fantastic news for Kirigakure!
"That guy, Xiao Ye, has finally decided to show up!"
Mei Terumi looked both annoyed and relieved.
During the years that Ye Liangnai was away, Kirigakure has faced no shortage of criticism!
They also face many challenges. If it weren't for the fact that Kirigakure was already quite powerful, they would probably have been attacked by other forces long ago.
"Brother Ye is finally coming back! Hehehe, I can't wait!"
Reiko said with great joy and an expectant look on her face.
It was impossible to tell that he was a cold-blooded killer.
"Mr. Night is finally back. Good, now we don't have to worry about Orochimaru anymore!"
Who poses the greatest threat to Kirigakure at this moment?
The other four major ninja villages and those clandestine forces probably don't even come close!
It was Orochimaru, who was imprisoned in Kirigakure!
This is a very dangerous yet very charismatic man.
The slightest mistake could bring annihilation to the Shinobi World!
After all...
Secretly, Orochimaru's apprentice, Kabuto Yakushi, had already used his research findings to reorganize the people of Otogakure.
They are now a force to be reckoned with in the Shinobi World!
Ye Liangnai here...
"Years have passed since we last met. I wonder how Kirigakure is doing now!"
Stepping out of the hot spring, I dried myself off...
Feeling quite refreshed, Ye Liangnai went to talk about life and ideals with her sister, the Duke of Zhou, after dinner.
The next day...
Ye Liangnai embarks on her journey home once again!
Before reaching the Land of Fire from the Land of Earth, one must pass through the Land of Grass!
"It's a country in turmoil!"
Along the way...
Not to mention the people who are starving and barely alive...
Even the fierce bandits along this route are enough to demonstrate the instability of this country.
Certainly...
The number of ninja who plundered Ye Liangnai was endless!
"It does have some similarities to the One Piece world!"
The same turmoil...
Similarly, only the strong survive!
"However, it's quite clear that you gentlemen don't intend to let me pass!"
Ye Liangnai stopped in her tracks...
Looking at the two ninjas in front of him, who were clearly different from the rogue ninjas he had encountered before, he even had smiles on his face.
What makes them unique is that they differ from the previous rogue ninjas...
It's because their faces are full and their eyes are aggressive...
Obviously...
They are living a very good life...
These are different from the wandering ninjas in the Land of Land of Grass!
"Hmph, kid, running into us is your misfortune."
"Remember to be born into a good family in your next life!"
The man on the left didn't give Ye Liangnai any chance to speak before swinging his sword and slashing at her.
It really does look quite impressive; the wind is howling, it certainly has some strength!
What if I don't?
Ye Liangnai dodged the attack by shifting to the left and flicked her finger off the blade.
"Snap!"
The long sword shattered instantly, and the man was struck as if by an invisible force, coughing up blood and flying backward!
