Guren took a deep look at the unmasked Sato Hideaka. Under normal tasks, Sato Hideaka always abides by the rules of Anbu. Although everyone knows his identity, he has never unveiled his mask. WwW COM
This time, why did Monkey Mask take the initiative to reveal Anbu.
Is it because of the child in front of me?
"Captain, the team has been assembled, we can go to Yugakure Prison." Sato Hideaka looked at the assembled Anbu Ninja, put on his mask again and returned to his team.
"Well, come out."
Anbu Team Guren said coldly with a long face expressionless.
Yugakure Prison is located on the edge of Yugakure, backed by a large vertical mountain with an angle of 9°. There is an open area in front of it. Not far from the open area is a dense forest. The dense forest is extremely lush and perfect for hiding.
In such a terrain, it is easy to gather a large number of people in the dense forest area to rob the prison. If the prison robber is successful, it will be easy to escape under the cover of the dense forest. This is probably one of the reasons why Yukage is worried about someone robbing the prison.
Yukage seemed to have more manpower deployed at the door of the prison. There were several pairs of people patrolling back and forth. The long blue Suzuki Jiro took out a token and handed it to the patrol supervisor. "I am Suzuki Jiro. This is the order from Lord Yukage. We are ordered to investigate the intelligence of those cultists."
"Then who are these...?" The patrol supervisor frowned and looked at Anbu Ninja who was wearing various animal masks.
Suzuki Jiro extended his hand and introduced, "These twelve adults are all Konoha Ninja who were invited by Master Yukage to help solve this matter. They are the elites among the ninjas."
"So that's it, then please come in." The patrol supervisor suddenly realized.
Under the recommendation of the patrol supervisor, and after contacting the internal prison director, Suzuki Jiro and Guren and Anbu members entered Kumogakure Prison together.
In the prison, every cell of about twelve square meters was crowded with fifteen or twenty people. They stretched out their hands to grab the people who entered the cell, and shouted in their mouths, like ghosts crying and wolves howling:
"Let me go, kill you, kill you."
"Lord Jashin will curse you, you humble mortals."
"Haha, you bunch of bastards, if you don't give me anything to eat, it's like I'm starving to death? Don't even think about it..., here you go!"
A black shadow was thrown out of the prison, and Flying Eagle caught it subconsciously. When he looked carefully at the object in his hand, his face turned pale and he almost vomited out. He saw that the object turned out to be a severed arm...
A bloody severed arm that had been chewed to the bone!
"They actually eat people?" Flying Eagle said in disbelief.
Anbu is a killing agency. It is normal to kill and mutilate corpses and destroy traces of them. However, such an inhumane thing as eating human bodies has never happened. After all, Anbu is also a human being, just a slightly indifferent and cold-blooded normal person.
The person in charge of the prison looked a little frightened and said awkwardly, "Because the guards responsible for delivering meals to them have all died inexplicably recently, so few people dare to come in now... We can only let them fend for themselves now."
Jailer, mysterious death?
"The jailers died one after another. What is going on? Why didn't you report this information to Mr. Yukage?" Suzuki Jiro said angrily.
"That, that is not a normal death, it is the curse of Jashin. Some died in their own homes, some died in the prison dormitory, and some guards even vomited blood and died inexplicably while they were sleeping. The guards who were sleeping together did not notice anything abnormal at all, and the guard died." The look of horror in the eyes of the prison director was even worse, as if the scene at that time was reappearing.
"Let's forget it, Master Yukage won't believe it. You... you go in, I'll wait for you outside, otherwise Jashin will definitely curse me and I will die...!"
The person in charge of the prison finished this sentence in a panic, and then ran out of the prison quickly, as if he would be contaminated by something dirty and die if he stayed for a second longer.
Inexplicable death? What on earth is going on?
The prison director's words made everyone present feel a chill. According to the prison director's description, it seemed that all the jailers who entered the prison to deliver meals were killed by an unknown force, and neither the person involved nor the people around him could detect this force.
Guren and Suzuki Jiro looked at each other, and both saw each other's determination to continue walking. They kept walking deeper into the cell, followed closely by the eleven members of Anbu. The further they walked toward the cage, the more they could feel the madness, bloodthirsty and disregard for life.
The people inside were disheveled and their expressions were twisted like devils. They kept howling and beating each other, shouting things like "for Lord Jashin". The ground and walls were covered with bloodstains, especially the pools of bloodstains on the ground, which attracted the attention of Sato Hideaka.
"Captain, look at the pools of blood on the ground, they seem to have been painted on intentionally." Sato Hideaka pointed at the blood stains in several cells and said.
A circular bloodstain pattern with an equilateral triangle inside!
Guren looked in the direction of Sato Hideaka's finger and couldn't help but frown and asked to himself, "This is... a pattern deliberately left by the cultists. Is it a code or something?"
"Qing, what do you think the patterns they drew with blood mean?"
Sato Hideaka pointed his right index finger to the center of his eyebrows, and seemed to think for a moment before saying, "Cultists come together because of the same belief, so there must be some similar characteristics. Coupled with the information about the mysterious death of the jailer, I think these may be related to the sacrifice..."
"Sacrifice to Jashin? This pattern has indeed appeared in cultists' gathering places, but it doesn't seem to have any special meaning." Hearing Sato Hideaka's words, Suzuki Jiro said in confusion.
Guren shook his head and analyzed carefully. "Maybe, each circle represents a sacrifice, which means the death of a person, but why did the jailer die in his dormitory? Could it be a secret technique... Rat, come and feel whether there are chakra fluctuations in this pattern."
Wearing Rat Mask, Anbu Ninja closed his eyes and made a seal with his hands on his chest.
After a moment, he opened his eyes again and shook his head at Guren, saying, "Most of the people in this cell are ordinary people. There is no trace of chakra fluctuations in this pattern."
"Could it be that the analysis was wrong? These jailers did not die from occult techniques, but from assassinations by cultists?" Guren frowned, and suddenly felt that the clues had become confusing.
Why must secret techniques be related to chakra and not blood?
Sato Hideaka opened his mouth, but in the end he still did not reveal the information. It was impossible to analyze all the killing methods of Jashin Cult cultists based on just an inexplicable pattern. Last time, he was suspected because of Medical Ninja System's incident.
This time, Sato Hideaka doesn't want to be suspected again because of the information in his mind that transcends ordinary people. Such things can be done one by one.
" Mr. Suzuki, do you know who among them has the ability to die? We want to try it on site. Maybe the next mission will involve fighting them..."
Guren sorted out the known information, and then asked Suzuki Jiro beside him.
Suzuki Jiro thought for a moment and said, "According to the information sent by the previous jailer, Jashin Cult disciples who seem to have immortal bodies often like to mutilate their bodies. You can find them among these people who are more fatally injured."
Suzuki Jiro had already obtained a set of keys from the jailer before. Now Guren wanted to go in and arrest someone for an experiment. It just came in handy. Guren took the key handed over by Suzuki. He ordered Anbu Ninja behind him, "Frog, Akainu, Yellow Monkey, the three of you go inside and grab someone who is injured in a fatal part and still acts like a normal person. Come out."
Anbu Ninja, who was wearing yellow Monkey Mask, nodded, took the bunch of keys from Guren's hand, and took Frog and Akainu into a cell. The remaining Anbu Ninja stood guard at the door of the cell, beating the prisoners back one by one to prevent the prisoners inside from escaping.
"Oh, damn, who is it?"
Frog, who was looking for his target in the crowd, suddenly groaned, held his right hand with his left hand and blurted out.
Guren stood outside the cell and asked, "Frog, what happened inside?"
"It's nothing. I was pricked by something and it just bled a little." Frog shook his head. The wound was almost invisible to the naked eye. It seemed that someone had pricked it with a needle. A few drops of bright red blood came out. It seemed that there was no sign of poisoning.
