Uchiha Izumi nodded, opened his mouth, and was about to continue persuading, but before the words came out, Tsunade had already raised his hand and pushed open the door panel.
The sound of the door shaft turning was particularly clear in the corridor. Tsunade stepped over the threshold, and the door panel closed behind her, blocking Uchiha Izumi's eyes from the outside.
Quan stood there, staring at the closed door, stunned for a moment.
There was no big fight inside, but the sound of firecrackers continued, even louder and denser.
After recovering from the extreme shock, Uchiha Izumi slowly blinked his eyes and twisted himself hard... it hurt, it was not a dream!
She turned around, walked back to the reception desk and sat down, feeling strong pride in her heart.
--Now this Konoha is simply named Uchiha!
In Yongye's Mindscape, a cold system prompt came on at the same moment that Tsunade pushed the door.
[Ding--The target Tsunade was detected, and it once again broke through the lower limit, severely breaking the defense. The reward is Advanced Blind Box×1, do you want to open it immediately?]
Yongye leaned on the back of the chair, looked away from the door, and silently muttered to Mindscape, "Open."
[Ding--Advanced Blind Box has been opened. Congratulations to the host, you have obtained Sage Art: Wind Release: Rasenshuriken.]
Sage Art: Wind Release: Rasenshuriken's knowledge was like a cyclone compressed to the extreme, exploding deep in his Mindscape.
The shape change of the spiral Shuriken itself, the fusion of properties of Wind Release Chakra, the synergy between Senjutsu Chakra and the wind attribute, and the trajectory of the rotating blade spreading into countless fine wind needles after touching the target were all embedded in his memory at that moment.
Yongye Sensing the details of the new power, his gaze returned to the front.
At this time, the door panels have been closed, and Tsunade's footsteps are approaching from behind the door towards the desk.
Anko's eyes widened and his whole body trembled!
Tsunade sighed, "I didn't lie to you, I also want to sacrifice."
Anko:( ╯□╰)
About thirty miles after leaving the Konoha entrance, the trees on both sides of the road gradually became sparse and replaced by an open Wasteland.
The road has been repeatedly run over by carriages and horses, giving it a grey-white sheen of hard soil under the sunlight. The wheel marks are crisscrossed and overlapping, extending to the edge of the distant horizon.
Mizuno Ichiro is riding on a short horse, trailing by less than half the team.
His eyes swept around the red necks and wrists of Fūma Kojirō and others, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
"Damn Uchiha bastard, damn Konoha!"
Fūma Kojirō walked at the front of the team and looked back at him, with uncontrollable resentment and grievance in his voice:
"This time, His Highness Daimyo must punish them properly! This bunch of country bumpkins are really rebelling!"
Mizuno Ichiro's back froze on the pony's back for a moment.
His eyes moved away from Fūma Kojirō's face and landed on the edge of the road ahead that was whitened by the scorching sun. He considered for a moment before speaking again:
"This... I'm afraid it won't work! We can't pursue this matter any further!"
Fūma Kojirō's figure suddenly stopped, his big feet made a harsh scratch on the road, he turned around suddenly, his eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief:
"What? Can't pursue it anymore? Look at what we have become! The whole face of Land of Fire has been stepped into the mud! Your Highness, Daimyo, must not just swallow it!"
The other three Guardian Ninja also stopped. One of them still had the marks of a knot on his shoulder, and the skin on the side of his neck was covered with dark red marks.
He raised his hand and pressed his shoulder, with a murderous look on his face:
"Yes, Master Mizuno! If this matter is settled like this, how can we Land of Fire raise our heads in front of Konoha in the future?"
Mizuno Ichiro reined in the reins, and the pony stopped under his crotch. His eyes swept over the scarred figures one by one, and he did not answer immediately, but let out a very long sigh in his throat.
That sigh seemed to have been suppressed for a long time before finally leaking out, with a kind of exhaustion and helplessness that they rarely heard from Mizuno Ichiro.
"Hiruzen Sarutobi and Shimura Danzō are so stupid! That Uchiha Yongye is a truly invincible person! No family, no honor, no morality, no care!"
"Facing him, I have no other choice but to endure it!"
Fūma Kojirō's mouth was still open, but the anger that had reached his mouth seemed to be pinched from behind by something, stuck in his throat, and he couldn't spit out a single word.
His eyes paused on Mizuno Ichiro's face for a few seconds, and then he read deep helplessness and Fear from the other person's expression.
His shoulders immediately drooped.
The other three Guardian Ninja also fell silent one after another.
Their only psychological advantage over Uchiha Yongye is that Konoha is under the control of Land of Fire to a certain extent.
If Uchiha Yongye doesn't care about this, then they are nothing in front of him - that bastard can crush them to death in minutes, and he won't hesitate at all.
After understanding this, their spirits became visibly worse.
Kakuzu and Xie followed Mizuno Ichiro. Chain was untied from their bodies, but Chakra was still firmly sealed.
Just as the team continued to march, a black shadow pressed down from above Wasteland on the side of the road. It moved very fast and landed directly in front of the team, causing a short swirl of dust when it landed.
The masked man in black stood in the middle of the road, with his back straight and his hands hanging by his sides, blocking the way of the team.
Mizuno Ichiro straightened his back on the pony's back, glanced around Man in Black, and then glanced at the empty Wasteland behind the opponent. He only saw one person, no follow-up array, and no sign of an ambush.
He frowned, and then let out an extremely disdainful snort from his nose.
"Just one person dares to stop us. He really doesn't know how to live or die! Let's go together and kill him and cut him into pieces!"
Fūma Kojirō did not take action immediately.
He sensed that the Chakra fluctuations in the other party's body were thicker than when the four of them were in good condition. At this moment, all four of them were in poor condition. If they really had a head-on conflict, they might not be able to take advantage.
He raised his hand and pressed it in the direction of Mizuno Ichiro, signaling others not to do anything yet.
Then he took a half step forward and asked in a probing rather than hostile tone:
"What do you want to do? We are Land of Fire Twelve Guardian Ninja, working for Land of Fire Daimyo!"
Man in Black did not answer.
He clasped his hands together in front of his chest and flipped his fingers rapidly, leaving a short afterimage in the air.
The surging Chakra surged out of his body, seeping into the gray-white hard soil road beneath his feet, and then - the ground began to shake.
Golden Sand surged up from the ground, rolling, expanding, and cracking under the soil like an awakened python, pushing out radial cracks in the hard shell of the road.
The color of the gravel is pure golden yellow, and its edges glow with a fine layer of light under the sunlight, like a golden wave surging in the air.
