Chapter 100: The Chess Game Out of Control (Asking for Monthly Votes!!)
"…I'm sorry, Third-generation Lord."
Yakura's lowered eyes flickered slightly, and he still said in a respectful and low tone: "The target's actions are very covert. It is obvious that they have been prepared for a long time, not a sudden whim. It will be very difficult to track them down."
"Also, Xiguashan Puffer Demon's big sword Samehada, Muri Jinpachi's long sword Sewing Needle, Kurikaze Kushimaru's Explosive Sword Feimo, and Kurochu Raiga's Thunder Sword Fang."
"I don't know what means the other party used, and they have cut off the connection with the summoning scroll."
Kirigakure really attaches great importance to these seven ninja swords, and left a summoning contract on the seven ninja swords. Even if the Seven Ninja Swordsmen died, it didn't matter. They could still summon the ninja swords back.
As long as the seven ninja swords were still in their hands, they could train the second Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
As long as they found seven candidates who were suitable enough, the tacit cooperation would be enough to deal with the "shadow".
When Yakura received the news, he immediately notified the Anbu to summon, but the four ninja swords did not respond.
"Has the connection with the summoning scroll of the ninja sword been cut off?"
The Third Mizukage muttered to himself, and then fell silent as if he was lost in thought.
Or, Uchiha Madara, who was hiding in the dark, already understood what this meant.
——"Contract Seal".
This technique was developed by the Uzumaki clan, which can cut off the contractual relationship between the target and the summoning, making it impossible for the target to continue to summon the contracted object.
Not to mention the four ninja swords lost by Kirigakure, even the summoning contract between him and the Nine-Tails can be directly cut off by this high-level sealing technique.
This ghost thing was developed by Uzumaki Ashina and left to Senju Tobirama to deal with him specifically.
This is why Uchiha Madara hates the Uzumaki clan so much. It is true that he was disgusted too many times before, and he can disgust him to death even if he can't beat him.
"...You didn't care about the four lost ninja swords, but you cared about the life and death of the Uzumaki clan?"
Noticing the reaction of his teacher, Yagura lowered his head and thought secretly in his heart: "Sure enough, it's a bit inconsistent."
Those were the seven ninja swords that Kirigakure spent a lot of energy and resources to create with great difficulty. Only the blunt sword · Kabutoki, the broken sword · Beheading Sword and the double sword · Flounder were left. These three are the simplest to use but have the lowest upper limit.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen, who have been painstakingly cultivated since the Second Mizukage's reign, have not yet made a splash on the battlefield to make a name for themselves and Kirigakure.
Just because of a sure-fire action, they were killed and only a few cats and cats were left.
In other words, they lost both the lady and the soldiers.
If the Kirigakure high-level officials knew this news, they would definitely be so angry that they would vomit blood.
However, hearing such bad news, the Third Mizukage's reaction at this moment was even calmer than Yagura expected.
"By the way, Yagura, I heard that your methods have become more and more bloody recently?"
Just as Yagura lowered his head to think, a voice suddenly interrupted him, and the deep meaning in the tone made him tremble.
"Sorry, Lord Sandai."
Yakura quickly reacted, lowered his head and answered calmly: "Because those ninja guys have begun to stir up trouble again recently, only by suppressing them as soon as possible can the internal situation of the village be stabilized."
"Now that Xiguashan Puffer Ghost and others have died, it can be expected that they will test your bottom line. I hope you can give me a transfer order to allow me to coordinate the forces of Xiguashan and others..."
After these words that sounded unclear about ambition and loyalty came out, Yagura felt that the burden on his shoulders became much lighter.
"You have great ambitions, Yagura." The Third Mizukage's voice was full of meaning, and he said in a deep voice, "Okay, but you must put the investigation of the whereabouts of the Uzumaki clan at the top of your future missions."
Hearing this, Yagura lowered his head and responded excitedly, "Yes, please rest assured, teacher, I will do my best!"
"Well." The Third Mizukage turned his back to him, waved his hand and said calmly, "Go."
Click.
When the sound of the door closing came from behind, a figure walked out of the shadows.
"Zetu." Uchiha Madara's face was gloomy, and he whispered, "What's going on?"
After the voice fell, the white white Zetsu poked his upper body out from the ground, and his tone could not hide his doubt: "Madara, it's the same as what the baby-faced man said."
Hearing this, Uchiha Madara frowned: "What is that guy Afei doing? Isn't he responsible for exploring Konoha? Has he found any unusual movements?"
Afei is also a member of the White Zetsu. Unlike ordinary White Zetsu, Afei is the only White Zetsu among the White Zetsu who has a "name".
Madara is still quite concerned about him. With Afei's ability, most ninjas in the ninja world are not his opponents.
After all, Afei inherited the wood escape ninjutsu of that man. Even if he can't compare with Senju Hashirama himself, that level is enough to deal with most ninjas.
"Afei said that he is trying the feeling of pooping in Konoha. He said that he must know what it feels like to poop today, and he wrote a few thousand words of gratitude to make me envious." White Zetsu answered Madara's question truthfully.
After saying that, he blinked and looked at Madara with hope. In fact, like A Fei, he also wanted to know what it felt like to defecate.
Who made White Zetsu have no excretion system? This question seemed to be their obsession.
After all, he was once the Shura of the Ninja World. If it was Madara, he would definitely know the feeling of defecation.
"..."
Uchiha Madara stared at White Zetsu speechlessly for a while, and White Zetsu also looked at Madara with innocent and harmless eyes.
The atmosphere fell silent.
"... Let A Fei hurry up."
Finally, Madara turned his head first, looked forward and whispered: "Find a way to sneak into the Uchiha clan and advance the plan to find the agent."
Whether it was the loss of contact with White Zetsu around Nagato or the failure of the plan to destroy the Whirlpool Country, it was completely unexpected by Madara.
The situation in the Ninja World was somewhat out of control, and even he felt a sense of urgency.
But now he was only hanging on to his last breath, and it would be normal for him to die suddenly at any time.
In order to ensure that the plan can be implemented smoothly, he decided to advance the plan to find an agent.
In this way, even if something unexpected happened to Nagato, he could still command the agent to remedy it in time.
"I originally wanted to let it go for a while, but now it seems that I can only adjust the plan." Uchiha Madara frowned and whispered, "It's really disgusting to feel that this plan is out of control for no reason."
Seeing that Madara was in a bad mood, Bai Zetsu, who didn't get an answer, scratched his head and was about to drill into the soil to find Afei, but his half-dive body suddenly stagnated.
"Hiss." As if receiving some unexpected news, Bai Zetsu couldn't help but take a deep breath, and at the same time successfully attracted Madara's attention.
"..." The wrinkles on Uchiha Madara's face deepened, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart again. He said in a deep voice, "What news did you receive?"
Hearing the urgency in Madara's tone, Bai Zetsu suddenly came back to his senses, and answered with a look of doubt: "A Fei just sent a message, he said that Konoha was invaded by the Kingdom of the Sky..."
Hearing this, Uchiha Madara's brows relaxed immediately, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said casually: "Didn't we know this information in advance? It's just a fool who overestimates his own abilities and leads a group of fools."
Although he doesn't like Konoha now, with Konoha's strength and foundation, it's not that a random scumbag can rise up by stepping on Konoha.
"No, no, no, it's different!"
Bai Zetsu shook his head quickly, reorganized his words and said: "A Fei said that Konoha was invaded by the Kingdom of the Sky... Oh no, it should be invaded by the Army of the Sky, and then, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki lost control and ran away, and Konoha suffered heavy losses beyond expectations."
