Other than meals and necessary sleep, Mu Yue and the others were basically traveling nonstop.
Under their rapid march, they soon entered the Land of Grass and arrived near Kusagakure.
"There's no barrier guarding the area. We can infiltrate directly," Aburame Shibi reported to Mu Yue after recalling his scouting insects.
The Aburame Clan's secret techniques had something of a jack-of-all-trades quality. As long as they raised enough insects, they could not only fight, but also provide excellent reconnaissance and other support capabilities.
This was within Mu Yue's expectations. In the ninja world, Sealing Jutsu and barrier techniques were essentially inseparable.
Basically, only major ninja villages could afford massive barriers capable of covering an entire village. Small ninja villages could at most master a few specialized Sealing Jutsu.
After all, the so-called villages of the ninja world were actually cities in scale.
Constructing a barrier over such a vast area required not only Sealing Jutsu experts, but more than one or two of them. Only a dedicated sealing squad could possibly accomplish it. Ordinary ninja villages could not assemble such a lineup.
Since there was no barrier, Mu Yue directly led the disguised group into Kusagakure.
Mu Yue did not immediately begin investigating. Instead, he led the team to an inn and rented several rooms to serve as the rendezvous point for this mission.

Including Mu Yue, their team had eight people. For an infiltration and investigation mission, a team of this size definitely could not move together. Too many people
