Shita Genichi and others stayed at the border for nearly half a month before returning to Konoha.
The training is still left to Shadow Clone. Shita Genichi is free during the holidays, and Shizune is also there, just in time to be a sparring partner, training Shizune's Taijutsu's melee combat ability.
No matter how good you can be, you must at least have some self-protection ability and can cooperate with Strength of a Hundred, otherwise Strength of a Hundred's training will be in vain.
"Okay, it's over for now, let's take a rest."
Seeing Shizune who was sweating profusely, panting, and extremely exhausted, Shita Genichi stopped and ended the practice.
Shizune just sat down on the ground.
Shita Genichi went to the tree not far away to bring salt and sugar water to replenish Shizune's water.
After Shizune regained his breath, he took out a bandage-like piece of paper, which was filled with spells, forming a complex Jutsu Formula.
"Wrap this around your wrist and use it as a wristband. You don't need to take it off even if you take a shower."
Shita Genichi said while operating on Shizune's left wrist.
Shizune put down the water glass and asked curiously, "What is this?"
Shita Genichi said, "Flying Thunder God Formula!"
Shizune opened his eyes wide and exclaimed, "Flying Thunder God Formula?"
"Genichi You accomplished it so quickly!"
Shita Genichi chuckled, "Initially accomplished, I am a genius after all!"
Shizune has long been a fan of Shita Genichi. She nodded her head and completely believed this nonsense.
Wrapping up the spell bandage, Shita Genichi smiled and said, "In this case, I can Body Flicker Technique directly come to you in the future."
Shizune blushed and nodded, feeling warm in his heart, as if he was soaking in a hot spring.
"Genichi!"
"Emergency mission!"
Gekko Ryufu appeared on a tree not far away.
Shita Genichi stood up. "I got it!"
It was only three days of rest.
Shizune was a little reluctant to leave, but still smiled and said, "Genichi, you go, I will go back by myself!"
Shita Genichi touched Shizune's smooth short hair, nodded and said with a smile, "I'll leave Shadow Clone to continue practicing with you!"
Saying this, he separated out a Shadow Clone to stay, and then left.
Hokage Office.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Shita Genichi and said, "Genichi, I believe you also know that Sunagakure's recent actions are somewhat unusual. I'm afraid there is a serious situation within them."
"So, I need you to sneak into Sunagakure to obtain information."
If it weren't for the fact that Shita Genichi had previously infiltrated the relatively closed Kirigakure, Sarutobi Hiruzen wouldn't have had this idea.
But Sunagakure's movements were so big that it was astonishing, almost like going crazy.
Since Shita Genichi has this ability to infiltrate, we must find out what happened to Sunagakure.
Because with the current tense situation in Ninja World, the situation in Sunagakure will definitely lead to changes in the entire Ninja World situation.
Information is very important.
Shita Genichi also understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's intention and nodded. "Understood!"
Of course he knows about Sunagakure's situation, but he can't say it now.
So Sunagakure still needs to go there.
Coming out of Hokage Building, Shita Genichi directly ordered the three waiting Akimichi Dodo: "Land of Wind!"
"Yes!"
The four of them used Body Flicker Technique and disappeared.
This time the mission Shita Genichi led the team alone, and the infiltration mission did not require many people.
In the evening, the four Shita Genichi rested at the Land of Rivers border.
"This mission is to infiltrate Sunagakure and obtain information."
Shita Genichi introduces the task content for the first time.
Gekko Ryufu said, "Captain, is it because of Sunagakure's recent actions?"
Shita Genichi nodded. "Not bad."
"The infiltration mission does not require many people, so you only need to meet me at the Land of Wind border."
Sarutobi Mikage hesitated and said, "Is this... too far?"
"How about lurking near Sunagakure to respond?"
Akimichi Dodo and Gekko Ryufu nodded in unison.
Shita Genichi took out Flying Thunder God Kunai and handed it to Gekko Ryufu: "Liu Feng, this is the Kunai I marked. If there is any danger, Body Flicker Technique will come directly."
Akimichi Dodo was surprised. "Flying Raijin Technique?"
Sarutobi Mikage and Gekko Hayate were both stunned. They had never heard of this technique.
Shita Genichi nodded. "It's Flying Raijin Technique."
Akimichi Dodo felt relieved. "Since this is the case, there will be no problem."
"I didn't expect you, captain, to have mastered this Body Flicker Technique."
Sarutobi Mikage couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything different about this Body Flicker Technique?"
Akimichi Dodo smiled and said, "Namikaze Minato Jonin You know!"
"The name Yellow Flash is earned by this Flying Raijin Technique, which has unparalleled speed!"
He once performed a mission with Namikaze Minato, so he knows how powerful Flying Raijin Technique is.
Sarutobi Mikage The two of them were stunned. Gekko Ryufu quickly put Kunai away.
A night of silence.
The next day, a group of people passed through Land of Rivers, and Akimichi Dodo and three others stayed at the border to wait for response.
For Shita Genichi, Hand Seals uses Summoning Technique to summon Tiger-Head Eagle, and then rides Tiger-Head Eagle into Land of Wind from high altitude. This is much better than eating sand on the ground, and the speed is faster.
In the evening, Shita Genichi looked at Sunagakure crawling like a beast in the distance, and immediately let Tiger-Head Eagle land on a mushroom-like stone pillar.
"Go for it!"
After sending a burst of chakra to Tiger-Head Eagle and feeding a few Military Ration Pill, Shita Genichi relieved Summoning.
Whoosh!
After inserting a Flying Thunder God Kunai into the stone pillar, the figure of Shita Genichi disappeared from the stone pillar.
The security around Sunagakure is not missing, but it is like a decoration for Shita Genichi, which can be easily overcome with the cover of Genjutsu.
Shita Genichi, who transformed into an ordinary person, walked on the streets of Sunagakure but did not feel any tension.
This is normal. Things like the disappearance of Kazekage must be kept secret.
If it has reached the level where Sunagakure is known to ordinary villagers, then Konoha does not need him to lurk here to obtain information.
But information cannot always be kept secret.
After walking around for a while, Shita Genichi had a dinner and then found a remote location and buried a Flying Thunder God Kunai.
Then he turned into a sand ninja and came near Kazekage Building. In an alley, he inserted Flying Thunder God Kunai into the stone wall until it was completely submerged.
Since mastering Flying Thunder God, Shita Genichi likes to insert wards in case of emergencies.
After inserting the eyes, Shita Genichi turned into a sand ninja Jonin and entered Kazekage Building.
At this time, Kazekage Building seemed empty, and Shita Genichi also quietly integrated his chakra into the water vapor in the air, letting his sensory tentacles gradually spread throughout Kazekage Building.
Soon he came to a conference room and listened.
In the conference room, there were senior executives Sunagakure headed by Chiyo and Ebizo.
Third Kazekage disappeared, and now they are the ones in charge of the overall situation.
"Kazekage There is still no news. I'm afraid there is an accident."
"We have to prepare for the worst."
"Is it necessary to recommend a new Kazekage?"
"Who is the right choice?"
Listening to the discussions, Chiyo said in a deep voice, "If Kazekage really has an accident, this is the most serious thing!"
"If Kazekage is dead, then who did it?"
"So, Kazekage must be found, even if it's a corpse."
"We must understand where the enemy is, otherwise, what is the safety of the new Kazekage?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone else became quiet and then nodded.
But then someone said, "Of course we still need to search for Third with all our strength, but we must also consider the new Kazekage in advance to prevent the village from falling into chaos."
"Third's disappearance cannot be concealed for a long time."
Chiyo nodded. "Then first determine the candidate Fourth Kazekage."
"This matter cannot be made public, so as not to cause unnecessary panic."
Ebizo and other Sunagakure senior executives nodded in succession.
Outside the conference room.
Shita Genichi sensed that someone was coming towards the conference room, and immediately used Flying Raijin Technique to disappear from the place.
Sunagakure In a secluded place, Shita Genichi appeared quietly.
"Such an environment has a big impact on my perception. The air is too dry."
Shita Genichi frowned secretly.
Of course, he is now able to change the Water Release nature of chakra into water vapor and blend it into the air, spreading rapidly in the air like ink.
However, the environment will still affect the speed of diffusion and the accuracy of perception.
"It seems that Heavenly Water Boundless Realm's technique is not perfect either."
Shita Genichi's figure disappeared again, and then appeared on the stone pillar outside Sunagakure.
"Relying on water perception is not enough, then let's use wind..."
Shita Genichi has a direction.
What is wind?
Air movement is wind!
Wind + water, the two combined forces, perception speed, range, and accuracy, Shita Genichi believe that it will skyrocket and greatly reduce the impact on the environment.
"Also, look for an opportunity to study Sensory Ninjutsu, brother Minato's."
After thinking about it, Shita Genichi changed his mind and started thinking about the disappearance of Third Kazekage.
He naturally knew that it was Sasori of the Red Sands who killed Third Kazekage and made Third Kazekage into a doll Puppet.
According to time calculation, Sasori of the Red Sands assassinated Third Kazekage about half a month ago.
Has Sasori of the Red Sands already made Third Kazekage into a doll Puppet?
But even if it is completed, the doll Puppet must retain some of its physical tissue.
Find Sasori of the Red Sands and snatch the body of Third Kazekage for study.
Shita Genichi doesn't want to see if he can match Third Kazekage.
He has now given up on the idea of transplantation, but is studying Orochimaru, analyzing the inner mysteries of Kekkei Genkai through research, and then trying to practice it on his own.
After all, Magnet Release of Third Kazekage was also cultivated through studying One-Tail.
"But it's a bit difficult to find Sasori of the Red Sands. I don't know his chakra status now."
"I'm afraid it won't take a day or two to do this. It seems we can only look at it later."
Shita Genichi summoned Tiger-Head Eagle with both hands Hand Seals, and went directly to Land of Rivers overnight.
However, on the way, he would occasionally let Tiger-Head Eagle land near an oasis and bury Flying Thunder God Kunai.
I was so busy all the way, and finally met up with Akimichi Dodo and the others at dawn.
Akimichi Dodo The three of them were a little surprised that Shita Genichi returned so quickly.
Shita Genichi didn't talk nonsense and said directly, "Third Kazekage of Sunagakure is missing!"
What?
Akimichi Dodo The three of them were all shocked.
"This... is this too exaggerated?"
Sarutobi Mikage Unbelievable.
The shadow of a ninja village!
He actually disappeared, this... is simply outrageous!
Akimichi Dodo, the most calm one, was shocked and said in a deep voice, "No wonder Sunagakure made such a big move."
"Captain, why is Kazekage missing? Was he attacked and killed?"
Shita Genichi said, "This is what Sunagakure wants to know now."
"Currently, Kazekage is alive and dead, and dead."
"Tangdong, Sanying, you should return to the village immediately and report this information to Third. I will rest for half a day before setting off with Liufeng."
Akimichi Dodo and Sarutobi Mikage immediately followed the order to cast Body Flicker Technique and left.
The two rushed as fast as possible and arrived at Konoha at eight o'clock that night. They immediately asked to see Sarutobi Hiruzen and forcibly dragged Sarutobi Hiruzen from home back to Hokage Building.
"Kazekage is missing?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen was also shocked after hearing the report.
It's so unexpected.
After all, Shadow is often the strongest person in the village.
There is also the Shadow Guard.
It is simply unbelievable that Suna Ninja searched for her all over the world after she disappeared.
But Sarutobi Hiruzen calmed down in just a moment and said, "You have worked hard, go back and rest!"
"Yes, Third!"
Akimichi Dodo and Sarutobi Mikage resigned immediately.
Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered for a moment and then immediately asked someone to find Danzo.
After learning that Third Kazekage was missing, Danzo immediately became excited. "Hiruzen, now Sunagakure is leaderless, and a lot of manpower is spent looking for Third Kazekage. There must be a emptiness inside. This is an excellent opportunity!"
War!
War!
He Danzo needs war!
Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head. "We cannot take the lead in launching a war, otherwise Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and Kirigakure may take the opportunity to launch an attack on us."
"Danzo, you are responsible for revealing the news of Third Kazekage's disappearance to the other three ninja villages."
Danzo frowned at first, but then nodded. "I understand."
"Let the other three villages weaken Sunagakure's power first."
"Haha, those militant guys like Kumogakure will definitely not let go of such a good opportunity."
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, not as optimistic as Danzo.
War is unavoidable, he is just delaying Konoha's entry into the war, and at the same time weakening potential future enemies as much as possible.
Shita Genichi returned to Konoha at around nine o'clock the next morning, and immediately came to Hokage Office to report to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Genichi, thank you for your hard work. This mission was completed very well."
Sarutobi Hiruzen first praised with a gentle smile, and then asked without giving Shita Genichi a chance to be humble, "What do you think about the disappearance of Kazekage?"
Watch quietly.
Shita Genichi slandered, but a look of deep thought appeared on his face, and then he said, "This village has always been hostile to the other four major ninja villages because we are the strongest."
"So, the disappearance of Kazekage seems to have caused a big flaw in Sunagakure, but for us, this is a poisonous fruit."
"I think the role of this information is not for us, but for other Three Great Shinobi Villages."
"This is a great opportunity for them."
"And for us, it is very worthwhile to weaken the other four major ninja villages."
Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a look of relief, and then said, "Go and rest, be prepared at any time."
"Understood!"
Shita Genichi nodded, and then Body Flicker Technique left.
