Plan Mutation (35)

"Amegakure? That's never been our base. It's just a cover. Amegakure is the territory of Demigod. We have no intention of making enemies with them for the time being."

"We usually communicate using the Magic Lantern Body Technique through this ring. You can wear this on your index finger. Let's go, let's find a place to inform the leader first."

"Okay, I understand." After saying that, Shiro followed Tobi toward the remaining stones, his heart sinking.

Miscalculation!

When Shiro first encountered them near Amegakure, he assumed they had already killed Hanzo and taken over the Land of Rain. Therefore, the entire plan was almost entirely based on this assumption.

Ultimately, Shiro relied too much on the so-called plot and completely forgot that the plot is different now. Naturally, it's unlikely that they can defeat Hanzo now.

Of course, there was another reason that led Shiro to this misunderstanding: the battle between Shiro and Kameda Jiro was quite a commotion, and if Hanzo were in charge of Amegakure, he would have come to check it out.

But the fact is that Shiro and Kameda fought for a long time without anyone coming over, which was the decisive factor that led Shiro to make this guess.

What Shiro didn't know was that the reason they chose that place to meet that day was simply because Hanzo had left Amegakure to run errands, and they chose that location after receiving this information.

Azu's current intelligence network is insufficient to uncover this kind of information, which is why Shiro came to this conclusion.

Even now, Shiro is thinking about whether they have formed an alliance, or whether Hanzo has become a member of Akatsuki. However, these are all speculations, and we will have to wait and see.

Shiro glanced at the ring already on his index finger. He was about to use the Magic Lantern Body, and everyone in the Akatsuki should be there. Then, Shiro would be able to verify his guess.

Therefore, he doesn't really care about this point right now, because he'll find out soon enough. What he's worried about now is that Amegakure and his two companions should have already infiltrated Minato.

If it were just Minato, Shiro wouldn't be worried. His Flying Thunder God allows him to escape at any time, and he can go very far.

However, now that Mito and Ayue have been brought along, things are in trouble. Shiro doesn't know if he can teleport long distances with two people. If he can, that's fine, but if he can't...

Therefore, Shiro is most worried about them now. They may not be a match for Hanzo now. If the three of them were to face Hanzo, they would only Hanzo.

So, let alone Mito, Ayue's Mystic Eyes combined with Minato's could have taken down Hanzo. But unfortunately, Amegakure also has its share of talented individuals, though they can't compare to the Five Great Nations.

However, it was still enough to crush Minato and the others. Therefore, as Shiro walked towards the rocks to the side, he was also slowly mobilizing his Chakra to prepare for it.

Shiro slowly Projection a Flying Thunder God Kunai. This one was different from Minato's; it wasn't the special three-pronged kind, but just a regular, ordinary kunai.

This was something Shiro specifically asked Minato to Analysis for him, so that he could use it to disguise himself in certain special situations, just like now.

After Shiro silently Projection, he used the gesture of stroking his right index finger to quietly exchange it for the kunai in his sleeve and infuse it with Chakra.

At the same time, Minato, who was having a meal at a restaurant in Amegakure, was slightly taken Minato.

Mito frowned slightly and asked, "Hmm? What's wrong?"

"Oh, it's nothing, just thinking about some things from the past."

"Oh, okay? Then let's eat quickly. We still need to see if there's anything worth buying later."

"Okay, I understand."

Yes, it's obvious that this is their overt communication, while behind the scenes...

Minato: "My Flying Thunder God technique coordinates have appeared in the distance. Judging from the situation, it must have been Shiro who did it. His secret technique can be used in conjunction with mine."

Mito: 'Are you sure?'

Minato: "It's almost certainly true, and you've probably noticed, they're already suspicious of us."

Mito: 'Yeah, it's alright, don't panic. They haven't spotted us yet. That's their usual practice in Amegakure; they conduct a preliminary investigation of everyone who Amegakure, just casting a wide net.'

Minato: 'I understand. So, what should we do?'

Mito: 'Tell Ayue the location you found out later and see if she has any news. Shiro has quite a few secret techniques; perhaps he can find a way to contact her.'

After saying that, the two of them glanced at Ayue, who was staring at them, almost at the same time. When Ayue saw that the two of them were suddenly looking at her, she was stunned and stood there blankly.

The code between Minato and Mito is actually very simple: it's the sound of chopsticks hitting a bowl. You only need to look at the rhythm, not the volume, so you won't notice anything unusual unless you get close to them.

At the same time, it only has a slight rhythm, and if you haven't seen the codebook, you have to listen very carefully to hear it, which Ayue naturally couldn't hear either.

However, she knew one thing: the two of them were definitely communicating, because Shiro had told her about a similar method. Although she hadn't learned it, she could tell if it was true or not.

Therefore, she was very curious about something she had only heard of before, and naturally listened attentively, even though she didn't understand it, it seemed very impressive.

That's why she didn't react for a moment when Minato and Mito suddenly looked at her. However, because of her past experiences, Ayue only paused for a moment before realizing what was happening.

So she ran her little hand across the materials that had just been placed on the table, and after a while, a barrier appeared!

In this respect, she is much better than Shiro. Shiro is only better than her in theory. If it comes to actual combat, his speed will be crushed by Ayue.

However, this is also why Shiro values her more; the barrier is too powerful, especially in the Shinobi World without Magecraft, it's practically unfair.

Just like now, as long as Minato don't fight inside the barrier, no one outside will know how much noise they make. Of course, they can't stay still for too long either.

Ayue's barrier is just a small illusion; what's outside is merely a mirage. Once someone touches it, the illusion will be exposed.

Therefore, after setting up the barrier, Ayue asked directly, "Minato, is there something you need?"

"Ah? Oh, look here, isn't this the direction your master is heading?"

Minato was slightly stunned by the barrier that Ayue had casually set up, but his thoughts were quickly interrupted by Ayue's words. So when he came to his senses, he quickly took out the map.

He pointed out the coordinates of the Flying Thunder God he sensed above, and then asked Ayue to confirm.

"Here. Let me see, it's roughly right, but slightly off. What's wrong, Minato?"

"It's nothing, we might need to change our address soon."
