Along with Tanuki Treasure's farewell, Mask Storage Hall disappeared in front of Akaseki and Ranwu. Presumably when Uzumaki Clan was massacred before, Mask Storage Hall was also the same, and he escaped...
"Is this... a seal? Mask Storage Hall has re-sealed it?" Ranwu was surprised, but also realized that Tanuki Treasure was something special. I'm afraid it was not just "a random raccoon dog".
Even now Ranwu suspects that the reason why Mask Storage Hall was released from the sealing state after the disaster was probably because Tanuki Treasure was in a wrong state. Fortunately, he happened to meet Akaseki at this time.
"Let's go find Minato first." Akaseki said.
"Tanuki Treasure Is it really okay?" Ranwu is still a little worried.
"Tanuki Treasure is not good at fighting. It's okay to stay here for now. Anyway, I can use "Summoning Technique" to summon it at any time when needed." Akaseki said.
Summoning Technique Of course there is a limit. The stronger the chakra of the channeled target, the greater the consumption.
"That's not what I'm talking about... I mean its health doesn't matter, right?" Ranwu Byakugan said.
"Don't worry, it's no problem." Akaseki asked Tanuki Treasure before. Now as a Nine-Faced Tanuki, it has recovered to health.
"Since Tanuki Treasure is not good at fighting, then what does "when in need" mean?" Ranwu asked curiously - in her impression, isn't Ninja Beast just for fighting?
"I have never seen Tanuki Treasure's strength. I just heard Tanuki Treasure himself say that it can use nine kinds of Sealing Technique." Akaseki said honestly.
"Sealing Technique?"
Although I had known for a long time that Tanuki Treasure was probably related to the Sealing Technique inheritance of the Uzumaki Clan, Ranwu was still a little surprised when I really knew that Tanuki Treasure could directly use Sealing Technique.
As we all know, ninjas with medical treatment, sealing, and perception... who have these abilities are the best among ninjas.
Not only are talents rare, but inheritance is also rare. Just like Kumogakure is one of the Five Great Ninja Villagess. Without the Six Paths Tools controlled by Gold and Silver Brothers, it is impossible to produce a decent Sealing Technique!
Akaseki can contract Ninja Beast with sealing ability, which is not unpractical, just like Akaseki was surprised when he heard that Minato learned Sensory Ninjutsu so quickly.
Seeing Ranwu's surprised look, Akaseki said modestly, "It's just with the help of Tanuki Treasure's power. There is still a gap between Minato's direct control of Sensory Ninjutsu, and..."
Akaseki said and looked at Ranwu seriously, "The ninja team pays attention to cooperation. Even if you have no special abilities, you can still make your own contribution!"

Ranwu:...
Soon after, Akaseki and Ranwu successfully reunited with Minato in the forest in the northern part of the island by identifying the mark left by Minato.
"How is the situation?" Akaseki asked after arriving.
From here, we can't see each other at all, and we're still some distance away from the north shore.
"They stayed on the shore, probably waiting for the tide to change at night." Minato said.
"Can't these people Water Walking pass by?" Akaseki wondered.
The center of the three islands of Land of Whirlpools is a huge, turbulent sea Uzumaki, which really affects navigation. Except for the south bank where Uzushio Village is located, other places are within Uzumaki most of the time. Only at low tide, Uzumaki will shrink, and then it can be passed safely.
But...
Just Uzumaki won't be able to defeat a strong enough ninja. Jonin should be able to run over Water Walking on its own. Especially these ninjas who are probably Hidden Mist Village should have good water skills. It's not surprising that Chunin can also walk with it.
"Uzumaki of the Whirlpool Sea has the effect of chakra sealing. Although it has little effect on Jonin, ordinary Chunin may not be able to Water Walking due to interference." Ranwu said.
As for when Uzumaki shrinks, just use a boat.
"Well, and the three ordinary people they were traveling with were probably forced by them. Water Walking is more likely to have an accident." Minato also added.
Although in order to avoid being discovered, Minato chose long-distance tracking and sensing, but after long-term tracking, Minato still discovered the relationship between this group of people-the ordinary people among them were under guard, not under normal escort.
"Oops... how can we follow up?" Ranwu said with a headache.
With the strength of three people, it is certainly not impossible to pass Water Walking directly. The distance between Uzushio Island and Whirlpool Mountain is not too far.
But the problem is that it is too easy to be discovered just walking on the open sea.
Now the three of them don't want to confront each other head-on.
"Can you Hidden Mist Technique..."
"Can your Genjutsu..."
Akaseki and Ranwu looked at each other at the same time.
But soon...
"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say it!"
The two of them immediately fell silent again.
It is obviously inappropriate to use "Hidden Mist Technique" at this time - if a large cloud of fog floats over the sea, even if you can't see what's inside, you will definitely be suspected!
Using "Genjutsu" is even more nonsense - although there is more than one Genjutsu that can have an invisibility effect, "Genjutsu" is ultimately an anti-human ninjutsu. The effect is "after being used on the target, it interferes with his perception and makes him unable to see himself." It does not really make himself invisible...
These two methods are obviously not suitable for the current situation.
If a ninja wants to complete his mission, he not only needs the ability to fight head-on, but also needs various coping methods. The importance of these coping methods is now clearly demonstrated.
Fortunately, Akaseki immediately thought of a solution...
"Hidden Mist Technique!" Akaseki suddenly said again after thinking about it.
"Huh? Unless my Hidden Mist Technique can directly cover the surrounding sea area like my grandfather, will it be useful?" Ranwu complained helplessly.
Indeed, if the range of Hidden Mist Technique reaches that level, in the eyes of the enemy, it will simply be "fog on the sea", and they will only regard it as weather and not take any precautions.
"No, of course it won't work at sea, but... we can use it in the sky! It's getting dark now. When we go to the sky, you are wrapping us with Hidden Mist Technique. If they don't look carefully, they will just think it's a cloud. We don't go directly from here, but go around in a circle from the direction of the Whirlpool Sea!" Akaseki said confidently.
Ranwu was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "So... how do we get to the sky? You wouldn't say that your Light-Weight Rock Technique has mastered it enough to fly, and can even take us flying, right?"
"That's not true, but of course there is a way to do it!" Akaseki said immediately.
Light-Weight Rock Technique, in general, it is "reducing gravity", Akaseki can do it, but as a B-level ninjutsu, Akaseki can barely use it, which is good. It is difficult for him to fly with this, let alone flying them both, but...
I saw Akaseki bite his finger directly at this time, and then Hai, Xu, You...
After Akaseki formed the first few seals, Minato and Ranwu could already tell. Isn't this the Summoning Technique that Teacher Jiraiya just taught him?
Could it be...
Tanuki Treasure can fly?
After completing the five seals, Akaseki stretched out his hand directly and slapped the air!
The next moment, a pattern different from the traditional Summoning Technique Cursed Seal bloomed from the palm of Akaseki, with a red circle on a green background and a bright blue word "Zhu" in the center...
