Chapter 224: Searching for Weasels Across Thousands of Miles, Secret Meeting (Two in One) (1/2)
July 15th.
The gate of Konoha Village.
Qianhe and a group of eight elites from the Uchiha clan were registering to go out.
During the past few days in the village, Qianhe taught Naruto the shadow clone technique step by step. For safety reasons, he warned Naruto not to create more than six clones.
Because he felt that Naruto was not very reliable, he did not teach the art of multiple shadow clones. Although Naruto's chakra amount was far more than six, the fatigue of the shadow clones would also be superimposed. At his age, It feels like six or seven are estimated based on the abnormal physique of his Uzumaki clan.
In comparison, Qianhe spent much less time teaching Sasuke.
Because the scroll he handed to Sasuke recorded in detail the properties and form changes of Thunder Release Chakra and the specific training steps.
This scroll was summarized by Qianhe based on the secret scroll he obtained from Kumogakure and based on the results of his actual practice. The process of practice was very smooth. With Sasuke's qualifications, it was only a matter of time before the changes in nature and form were completed. .
In addition, in order to prevent Sasuke from pushing himself too hard, he had already approached Sasuke's father Fugaku and told him to pay attention to Sasuke's training progress.
Since Itachi rebelled against the village, Fugaku has gradually turned his attention to Sasuke.
Although Itachi did this kind of thing for the sake of peace for the Uchiha clan and the village, this matter was a secret.
Even if Itachi can return to the village in the future, it will be difficult for a person who has massacred his own clan to convince the public again, so it is imperative to train Sasuke as the next team leader.
In fact, Fugaku also knew that it would be difficult for Itachi to return to Konoha in this life, and the only possibility was Qianhe.
"Let's go."
After registering at the gate, Qianhe said to the eight Uchiha ninjas beside him very unmotivated.
"Yes, Captain Qianhe."
The first person to speak was Uchiha Nami, the only remaining elite jounin of the Uchiha clan except Fugaku and the Great Elder.
After the last disastrous defeat at the hands of Qianhe, the Uchiha clan has now settled down.
Especially with the comfort and persuasion of the clan leader Fugaku, they truly felt the sincerity of the village.
If you can live in peace with the village, no one will want to cause trouble.
Especially when facing Qianhe, who is now at the height of his power in Konoha, no matter in terms of strength or status, he is as arrogant as the Uchiha clan, and he has to be treated seriously.
Uchiha's idea is even simpler. This mission, led by Qianhe, is the first important mission of the Uchiha clan since the attempted coup. It is related to the status of the Uchiha clan in the village and regaining power. There cannot be any slightest concern. careless.
With Qian He's strength, if he takes it seriously, it is a sure thing that the mission will be successfully completed. However, once Qian He is angered, he is now the minister of the root. If something goes wrong while protecting the daimyo, , the village will not do anything to him, but as the Uchiha clan participating in the mission together, they are bound to bear the pressure from the Fire Nation's political leaders and the village's senior officials.
Naturally, they knew this completely avoidable thing.
Along the way, the eight Uchiha people treated Qianhe as an uncle, and their attitude was to be as good as possible.
Qianhe himself has done a lot for the Uchiha clan, so naturally he will not embarrass them because of the previous things. He is not so stingy, and the group of people get along very harmoniously.
In just two days or so, they arrived at a mountain range two hundred miles away from the capital of Fire Country.
It was completely dark, so Qian He led the team to camp on the spot. The next day, they would have to drive half a day to reach the Fire Capital.
"Captain, come and eat this, I just roasted the pheasant."
The eight members of the Uchiha clan were having a barbecue around the bonfire, while Qianhe was lying on the trunk of a big tree leisurely with his eyes closed to relax. Uchiha roasted the hunted pheasant and then consciously came to the tree to deliver it to him. To Qianhe.
Qian He jumped up and jumped down from the tree. After pulling down the two chicken legs, he smiled and said to Yu Zhibo: "You can divide the rest, I can eat these."
With that said, Qian He began to eat unceremoniously. He had just taken a bite of the chicken leg, and as soon as he put it into his mouth, Qian He's expression suddenly changed and his eyes narrowed.
"Captain, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with the chicken legs we grilled?" Uzhibo looked at Qianhe's sudden change of expression and was shocked. He also followed Qianhe's request two days ago. Today is obviously Same, no problem.
"No, no problem. I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. I need to leave the team for a while. After you eat, rest where you are. If I don't come back at dawn tomorrow, you will go to the Fire City first, and I will arrive soon. "
Qian He finished the chicken drumstick in his hand in two bites and said something that stunned Uchi Wave.
Uchi Wave looked at Qianhe in astonishment, with a troubled look on his face, and said: "Captain, what's the matter with you? Is there any trouble? Do you need our help?"
Qian He smiled, knowing that what he meant was to remind him not to delay the task.
"Don't worry, I will definitely arrive at the Fire Capital tomorrow. I have never failed a mission since I became a genin.
You take this Flying Thunder God Kunai, I will catch up with you after I take care of the matter, don't worry! "
Qian He repeatedly emphasized that the mission would not be delayed, and after leaving a specially made Flying Thunder God Kunai for Uchiwa, he directly used the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer away.
"Captain Qianhe, this..." Uchiha Nambo took the kunai, but before he could speak again, Qianhe disappeared.
"Langjun, what should we do?"
"Captain Qianhe won't deliberately embarrass us because of the previous incident, right?"
"If the mission is delayed, will the daimyo blame us Uchiha? At that time..."
As soon as Qianhe left, the remaining seven Uchiha clan members quickly surrounded him and looked at Uchiha Nambo with worry.
"Don't talk nonsense, trust Captain Qianhe, hurry up to eat, rest immediately after eating, and set off on time tomorrow morning."
Uchiha Nambo looked at the clan members, and immediately frowned, not allowing them to talk nonsense, who knows if Qianhe will come back suddenly.
******
In the territory of the Land of Fire, Qianhe continued to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to move quickly.
He suddenly felt that the coordinates of one of his Flying Thunder God Kunai were activated, and the direction was near the eastern part of the Land of Fire.
So far, the only people who knew to activate the Flying Thunder God coordinates to notify him were Jiraiya and Itachi. It couldn't be anyone else, it must be a big deal.
Qianhe felt that it was more likely that Itachi notified him.
Because with Jiraiya's strength, as long as he wanted to run, even Six Paths Pain couldn't stop him now. It was obvious that Itachi had something to notify him.
After leaving the team, Qianhe's transfer speed and frequency became faster and faster.
The training on the Phantom Island made him take a big step closer to the control of the power of space. Now he can sense the Flying Thunder God's spatial coordinates farther and farther, and more and more accurately.
In less than ten minutes, he arrived at the eastern coastal area of the Land of Fire through space transfer.
However, even at the seaside, the location displayed by the spatial coordinates was still in the east.
Because the distance was too far, the coordinates were a little fuzzy, and the sensing was not very clear, so Qianhe had no way to transfer directly.
"It seems that Itachi is in the Land of Water. What is he doing in Kirigakure? Is he carrying out a mission?" Standing on the seaside and looking into the distance, he knew that the direction was the location of the Land of Water.
Swish!
Since the location was determined, Qianhe no longer wasted time. In order to prevent Itachi from getting into trouble, he directly burst out light escape, and the whole person was instantly wrapped in golden chakra and flew directly into the air.
As he approached, he rushed into the clouds, cut through the sky, and rushed towards the direction of the Land of Water.
As his body developed, he developed light escape more and more deeply. He felt that light escape and Yang escape had a deep connection, but it had not been developed to the extreme yet, and he had just started to develop Yang escape, but when the progress deepened in the future, it would be clear.
After flying at high speed for more than an hour in the clouds, Qianhe felt that his perception of the spatial coordinates became clearer, so he instantly stopped the output of light escape.
Because Qianhe stopped the output of light escape chakra, the golden light on his body disappeared instantly, and then he fell directly from the sky.
Swish!
Qianhe launched the Flying Thunder God Technique, and then instantly appeared in a bush.
He squatted down and found a special kunai placed in the bush.
It was obviously left by Itachi on purpose.
"What is this? A secret code?" Then, Qianhe came to a big tree 20 meters away according to the placement of the kunai, and looked at the symbol on the trunk. There was a meatball pattern on it. This was the secret code he and Itachi agreed on, and no third person would understand it.
Seeing that there was one more bamboo stick with meatballs, Qianhe frowned slightly, and then went to the bushes 50 meters away, and he dug out a scroll under a mound of earth.
Qianhe opened the scroll and saw that it was no wonder that Itachi notified him.
The scroll recorded the tasks issued by the Akatsuki organization that Itachi had received recently.
He teamed up with a man named Biwa Juzo, and it recorded what Itachi learned that the Akatsuki organization had recently carried out many assassination missions, including the politicians of the Fire Country and the Water Country, and there seemed to be the shadows of the Thunder Country and the Earth Country behind this.
After the politicians of the two countries were assassinated, they deliberately left some clues, which was obviously intended to deliberately alienate the Fire Country and the Water Country.
Itachi reminded Qianhe to be careful, because a team of members of Akatsuki Organization will enter the Land of Fire to assassinate the high-ranking officials of the Land of Fire in the near future.
In addition, when Itachi arrived in the Land of Water yesterday, he found out that a person lost more than 30 million taels in gambling in the Land of Water a day ago. It is said that she is a blonde beauty who is very generous and always loses in gambling.
Since Qianhe once mentioned that he was looking for Tsunade, and Itachi took it to heart after hearing it, he took advantage of this intelligence to inform Qianhe together.
"Itachi and Biwa Juzo came to the Land of Water to carry out the mission together? This place should be very close to the Hidden Mist Village. I remember that Biwa Juzo seems to be an S-level rebel ninja of the Hidden Mist Village and one of the original Seven Ninja Swordsmen."
"Kisame has also returned to the Hidden Mist Village. I wonder how he is doing now?"
"No, I remember."
After checking the information on the scroll, Qianhe was about to leave, but he suddenly remembered something about the Hidden Mist Village.
It seems that this period of time is when Itachi encountered the Fourth Mizukage Karatachi Yagura, so it seems necessary to remind him.
Thinking of this, Qianhe closed her eyes and opened the Kagura Heart Eye.
Because it was night, although he had just traveled more than ten thousand miles from the Land of Fire to the Hidden Mist Village, it took a total of more than two hours, and no more than three hours at most, so Itachi should not have walked too far.
It is probably because there is another member of Akatsuki, Biwa Juzo, by his side, so Itachi did not choose to take the risk of waiting for him to meet him, but Qianhe left more than one Flying Thunder God Kunai for Itachi. He can feel the coordinates of dozens of Flying Thunder Gods that he left in the Land of Water.
Now since Itachi did not activate the coordinates, Qianhe did not have to test one by one to see which coordinate was his.
In addition, this thing was carried by Itachi, so once he teleported over, it would be troublesome if there were people next to him.
So Qianhe chose to use Kagura's Heart Eye.
After a while, as Qianhe's Kagura's Heart Eye expanded its detection range, he quickly locked onto a familiar chakra.
......
In the dense forest, Itachi, wearing a black robe with red clouds, leaned against a tree trunk to rest.
On the tree trunk opposite him, there was a tall ninja carrying a beheading sword. He had short black hair, no eyebrows, sharp teeth, a large cross scar on the right side of his face, bandages wrapped around his ears and neck, and red stripes on the lower half of his face. He was Itachi's teammate, Biwa Juzo.
After resting for a while, Biwa Juzo got up first and said to Itachi, "It seems that we will have to sleep in the wild tonight. The night in Kirigakure is really wet and cold. I have had enough of this damn weather. If it weren't for the mission, I wouldn't want to go back to this damn place."
While complaining, he set up warning traps around.
After a while, after the two of them finished eating the dry food they brought with them, Biwa Juzo jumped up and jumped onto the tree trunk, leaning on the sword and closing his eyes to rest.
Itachi was lying on the thick tree trunk opposite him, looking at the stars.
"Go to bed early, Itachi, you have to get up early tomorrow." As he said, Biwa Juzo changed to a comfortable posture.
"Hmm." Itachi responded, staring at the sky in a trance.
"Mute--"
"Mute--"
After a while, a crow's cry suddenly came from the forest.
Hearing the crow's cry, Itachi's face changed slightly. This is...
"Damn! Damn crow!"
Biwa Juzang cursed twice and continued to sleep.
After about five minutes, Itachi jumped up and jumped down. His movements were neither light nor heavy, and he did not deliberately hide them.
Biwa Juzang naturally heard the movement, turned his head to look at Itachi, and asked: "Itachi, what are you doing?"
Itachi replied lightly: "Pee."
"Just solve it on the spot."
"Someone can't pee nearby."
"Oh, be careful." Biwa Juzang curled his lips and didn't say much. In fact, he was also...
"Hmm." Itachi's tone did not change, and he walked towards the periphery of the trap.
After walking about a hundred meters, he found a barrier not far away. Feeling the familiar breath, Itachi's pupils shrank, and he thought to himself, Qianhe's strength has become stronger again. They didn't know that a barrier was set up at such a close distance.
As soon as Itachi walked into the assembly, a black shadow suddenly pounced on him. He was startled and wanted to fight back subconsciously, but he still held back.
"How are you recently, Itachi!" Qianhe hugged Itachi's neck.
Feeling the familiar movements and familiar tone, Itachi suddenly felt at ease, just like a lost boat found a harbor where it could stop for a short time.
"Qianhe, I don't have much time. If I leave for too long, I will be suspected." Although there are many things to say, Itachi still calmed down.
Seeing this, Qianhe's face also became serious, and he said: "
Sasuke is doing well now. After you left, he didn't believe that you would betray the village, and cried and shouted to find you. He is now training with me. When I teach him out of the mountain, he will probably come back to find you.
In addition, Quan is also very good. Now the Uchiha clan's security force has been reorganized. Quan is a team leader and is responsible for leading newcomers.
The Uchiha clan has now reconciled with the village. Your father and the third generation, me and teacher Jiraiya are the only ones in the village who know the inside story of your matter. Your father understands your approach and hopes that you will pay attention to safety when you are outside.
In addition, I have solved the matter of Danzo. This time I came out to lead the Uchiha team to perform the task of protecting the daimyo."
Qianhe spoke out everything that Itachi might want to know at the fastest speed.
Looking at Qianhe's "funny" speaking speed, Itachi felt warm in his heart.
