After the competition ended, Sasuke and others returned to the hotel.
In the arena, Sasuke showed off and Kamui defeated Darui. The news spread to everyone's ears like flying. This shocking news also stunned many villagers in Kumogakure.
Although they may not know much about ordinary ninjas, most villagers are still very aware of Darui's strength, and they really can't believe Darui's defeat.
So many villagers began to ask around, and finally learned about the entire battle process from a ninja at the scene.
For a time, Sasuke, the foreign ninja from Hidden Village, immediately became the subject of discussion among the villagers.
As the protagonist being discussed, Sasuke was not idle. He entrusted the crow with the information that had been invited to Raikage to bring it back to Hidden Village.
It's not that Sasuke wants to show off his achievements, it's just that it will take several days for him, Karin, and Ryūzetsu to return to Hidden Village. He is worried that Hidden Village's side will cancel the inauguration ceremony, so the purpose of sending information is to let Hidden Village's side continue to prepare for the ceremony.
The country, Hidden Village.
In the quiet and grand office, a tall figure was quietly reviewing the many scrolls on the table, and there was a faint majesty of a Kage Level ninja coming from his body.
Uchiha Clan patriarch Uchiha Fugaku, now the master of Hidden Village, his momentum is obviously more powerful than before in Konoha.
Bang!
The silence of the office was suddenly broken by an extremely harsh sound of breaking the door. Uchiha Fugaku's face instantly darkened. He raised his head and wanted to yell angrily. Uchiha Yashiro's sharp voice came into his ears.
"Clan leader, Sasuke has sent information!"
Whoosh!
Uchiha Fugaku The anger on his face disappeared almost in an instant, and the original calmness also disappeared in an instant. He stood up suddenly... his voice had a very rare vibrato because of the rush!
"How is the situation? Has Sasuke invited Raikage?"
"Clan leader, Sasuke Raikage agrees to attend the shadow inauguration ceremony!" Uchiha Yashiro replied tremblingly with a look of ecstasy on his face.
"Haha, he is indeed my son. I know Sasuke will not let me down!"
Uchiha Fugaku first looked at Uchiha Yashiro in confusion, and after a moment, he laughed loudly, with uncontrollable excitement and ecstasy in his eyes.
"Sasuke, is there any way to serve Raikage?"
After the laughter subsided, it took Uchiha Fugaku a while to come back to his senses, and then he said calmly.
He had expected that Raikage would be the most difficult person to recruit besides Hokage. After all, in the current ninja world, Kumogakure is very powerful, faintly surpassing Konoha.
"On the scroll, Sasuke challenged Darui of Kumogakure. Only after winning did Raikage agree to participate in the shadow inauguration ceremony!"
Uchiha Yashiro's words directly shocked Uchiha Fugaku again.
"How is it possible for Sasuke to defeat Darui?"
An unbelievable emotion hit Uchiha Fugaku's heart, because Uchiha Fugaku knew that Darui's strength was almost the same as Shisui, Itachi.
"Although I am also shocked, if this is true, then Sasuke can become a person like Madara Uchiha!"
Uchiha Yashiro's face was still full of ecstasy, and then he said excitedly.
"Madara Uchiha?!"
Uchiha Fugaku tugged at the hem of his clothes with a trembling palm, and his eyes were shrinking rapidly at this moment. He knew very well what this name represented.
"I hope Sasuke can reach his height one day!"
Uchiha Fugaku pursed his lips and murmured, but his mind flashed back to the six-year-old boy a year ago who was determined to protect his family. I'm afraid I couldn't imagine at that time that Sasuke would really do it.
"Clan leader, since Raikage will come to participate in the ceremony, should we send this news out?"
After Uchiha Fugaku finished speaking, Uchiha Yashiro suddenly asked.
"Of course, if we want to send it out, we must let other ninja villages know that we, Hidden Village, are also capable."
"When we Hidden Village gradually become stronger in the future, all those ninja villages that look down on us will be wiped out..."
Uchiha Fugaku's eyes narrowed slightly, and a trace of murderous aura quietly filled the air.
"Yes!"
Uchiha Yashiro was shocked, and then quickly retreated.
At night, Land of Hot Water Black Forest, a bonfire was rising slowly, like a lighting lamp in the darkness.
I saw a man wearing a shirt with a wave pattern and a skull necklace hanging around his neck. He had eyes like fish eyes and thick lips, looking at the map through Kakkō. Then he said lightly, "Tu Liu, we are now at Black Forest. This is the only way from Land of Hot Water to Land of Iron. Let's hunt here!"
Tu Liu has red hair, and his forehead is covered with red stripes. His Forehead Protector has a "stone" pattern engraved on it, but it is scratched by a scar.
Like the fish-eyed man, Tu Liu also has a skull necklace hanging on his neck.
"Xing Shui, I listen to you."
Tu Liu said in a low voice without hesitation.
Both of them are wandering ninjas. In order not to starve to death, they can only take on some dangerous assassination missions.
"Then let's..."
"Who?"
Xing Shui originally came up with his own plan, but sensed a ninja approaching around him, then subconsciously stood up and asked coldly.
After Xing Shui stood up, Tu Liu also quickly drew his sword and prepared for battle.
Wandering ninjas like them kill too many people and will naturally make many enemies, so they have to guard against any ninjas who come for revenge.
"Don't worry, I'm here to make a deal."
In the darkness, a female ninja wearing a mask slowly walked out and said softly.
"Hehe, our remuneration is not low!"
Knowing the purpose of this female ninja, Xing Shui knew that business was coming, and then he put down his guard and chuckled.
"I hear you are Land of Hot Water's famous assassination ninjas, so the price is no problem."
The female ninja also knew something about them, so she spoke.
"Okay, who do you want to kill?"
Hearing this, Xing Shui didn't continue to talk nonsense and said straightforwardly.
"Hidden Village's three ninjas, one of them named Sasuke Uchiha must be killed!"
Throwing a detailed information scroll over, the female ninja said viciously.
After taking the scroll and opening it, Xing Shui saw the portrait of Sasuke at first sight.
"Five million! This is the deposit. When you complete the task, there will be another fifteen million!"
Taking out a thick sum of money and throwing it on the ground, the female ninja turned and left.
"Hey, you are our employer, please leave your name!"
Seeing that the female ninja just left, Xing Shui asked.
"Yu Li!"
With these two short words, Yu Li figure quickly disappeared into the dark forest.
