Chapter 88 Assassination

The appearance of Mizunoe Sora made Yeshan's already vigilant heart even more tense. He didn't believe that the other party came to the capital by chance. A ninja, especially a senior ninja, is a valuable fighting force in the village. Unless you are a Sannin, you don't have time to travel around the world.

Since Kirigakure has some plan, Ye Shan must speed up the pace. If he delays, something might happen and he cannot delay any further.

After making up his mind, Ye Shan closed the door directly, ate some hot food in the room, and then closed his eyes to rest and prepare for the action at night.

In the second half of the night, a thin layer of mist filled the capital of the Water Kingdom, covering the buildings not far away and interfering with the naked eye's ability to observe.

Yeshan cancelled his shadow clone and transformation techniques, and wore Konoha's standard ninja vest, with two bulging ninja tool bags hanging behind his waist. He looked very capable and energetic.

"Chen, you stay here and wait for the right opportunity. Once the sound of fighting is heard in the city, immediately create chaos and we will meet at Point C."

Shancheng Chen nodded calmly, without any objection to Ye Shan's arrangement. In fact, he was good at swordsmanship and had no experience in assassination, so he could only leave it to Ye Shan.

"It's 1:43 now. You must set off for Point C in an hour no matter what. Remember not to get entangled by the Mist Ninja."

"Got it, Captain."

After arranging everything, Ye Shan used the earth diving technique and sank into the ground under the gaze of Yamashiro Tatsuya, moving silently towards the place where Katsuhisa Baotian lived.

With Ye Shan's current earth escape skills, he could sneak in the ground at a very fast speed, even faster than on land. Not long after, Ye Shan stopped at a place. According to the ninja's explanation during the day, Baotian Katsuhisa lived here.

Ye Shan did not immediately cancel the Earth Escape Diving Technique, but calmed down and carefully felt the surrounding atmosphere, hoping to find something. However, he was not a perception-type ninja, and it was difficult to find anything with the perception level of a normal ninja. In desperation, Ye Shan had to use his chakra to slowly drill out of the ground.

Fortunately, it was midnight and the streets were empty, otherwise seeing a person emerging from the ground would definitely cause quite a commotion.

Ye Shan narrowed his eyes and looked around, then loosened his right hand that was holding the dagger, and swayed over the high wall and quietly came to the outside of a bedroom.

The steady and powerful breathing sounds coming from the bedroom proved that the owner was asleep. Ye Shan smiled silently, directly activated the chakra in the sealing technique, and instantly entered a new mode.

The sky-blue chakra condensed on Ye Shan's body surface, with vivid ripples, looking like a happily flowing stream. It was the result of Ye Shan's practice for a year - the unfolding of the technique - Wave Killing!

This technique is composed of pure water-attribute chakra extracted from Yeshan's kidneys. Unlike the equally destructive and powerful Fiery Kill, the essence of this mode is that it is like water, sometimes gentle and sometimes violent, soft and sharp, and can kill the enemy invisibly. It is perfect for assassinating a special jonin who has been in battle for a long time.

Ye Shan stood silently in front of a bed, and after confirming that the person sleeping on the bed was Katsuhisa Baotian himself, he stretched out his right hand above his face with an expressionless face.

Water-attribute chakra gushed out instantly, forming a tailor-made water ball that wrapped around Katsuhisa Yasuda's body.

Katsuhisa Baotian, who was dreaming, was awakened and found himself wrapped in a water ball. He was terrified. He didn't care about the assassin standing quietly outside the water ball. Katsuhisa Baotian quickly calmed down and began to make hand seals with his hands, trying to use ninjutsu to get out of the trap. As long as he got rid of the water ball, Katsuhisa Baotian believed that he could hold on until the moment when the Mist Ninja living not far away arrived.

Ye Shan looked expressionlessly at Katsuhisa Baotian who was making seals in the water ball. He recognized at a glance that the seals he made were those of Wind Style Ninjutsu, but so what? Under the Wave Killing mode, any ninja who fell into the technique was nothing more than a lamb to be slaughtered.

Before Katsuhisa Hosada in the water ball finished his seal, several water arrows shot out from the palm of Ye Shan's right hand, which was pressed on the surface of the water ball, and pierced through his body mercilessly. Blood flowed out of Katsuhisa Hosada's tattered body, quickly dyeing the water ball red, and also causing Ye Shan to lose his vision.

The mission was to kill the rebel ninja Katsuhisa Yasuda and bring back his head. Ye Shan naturally would not forget this. He immediately released the water ball filled with blood, took out a kunai, cut off the dead rebel ninja's head and sealed it.

The entire assassination process went extremely smoothly, which surprised Ye Shan a little. He couldn't help but suspect that Mizunoe Sora really came to the capital of the Water Country by chance.

After completing the task, Ye Shan was not in a hurry to leave. He searched for some useful things in the room, but was depressed to find that he found nothing. Estimating the time, Ye Shan did not dare to delay any longer, and immediately used the submarine technique to sink to the bottom and escape from the crime scene.

Suddenly, two kunai shot in from outside the door and pierced Ye Shan's feet with incredible accuracy. Then a familiar "hissing" sound was heard, which was the burning sound of the detonating talisman before it exploded!

Ye Shan's face darkened, and without thinking, his chakra exploded from the soles of his feet while he bent his calves forcefully. Under the force, he shot out from the roof like a rocket.

"Boom boom"

The sound of the detonating tag exploded far away in the silent night. The daimyo's palace was soon lit up. A large number of guards surrounded the daimyo's bedroom in an orderly manner. Others also rushed to the city gate at the roar of their leader, hoping to catch the turtle in the urn.

But the tall city walls that were difficult for ordinary people to cross had no effect on Ye Shan. Taking advantage of the chaos in the city and the smoke produced by the explosion of the detonating talisman, with strands of lightning bouncing on his body, he fled from the capital of the Water Kingdom at an astonishing speed, making it impossible for several pursuing Mist Ninjas to catch up.

"This lightning escape technique, the one who came is Konoha's jonin Bai Kumo Yeshan!"

Watching the assassin walk away in style, the pursuing Mizunotsuki Sora spoke in a deep voice to the leading Mist Ninja.

It just so happened that the leading Mist Ninja, Yeshan, also knew that it was Yagura who led the team to kill the Fire Country Daimyo that year. After hearing that his own ninja recognized the identity of the assassin, Yagura's young face showed murderous intent and asked, "What is the ability?"

"He is good at fire jutsu, earth jutsu, and lightning jutsu, and is also strong in physical skills. He is a rare ninja without any flaws."

"No flaws?" Yagura asked in surprise.

"Yes, whether it's Taijutsu, Ninjutsu, or even Genjutsu, it's difficult to interfere with him effectively. Unless four or five Jonin are dispatched, there's no way to stop him."

Mizunoe Sora's words caused quite a stir among several Mist Ninjas. They obviously did not expect Ye Shan to be such a difficult enemy.

Yagura's face darkened and he asked again: "How old are you?"

"Less than twenty!"

"hiss..."

"Konoha Village is really rich in geniuses."

A famous Mist Ninja said with some jealousy that compared to the Mist Village where talents were dwindling day by day, Konoha was full of talents and there were ninjas with extraordinary talents in almost every generation. But they guessed wrong, Ye Shan was a hard-working genius and his talent for cultivation was really not outstanding.

"Humph! So what if he's a genius? Even the three ninjas have to think twice when they come to the Land of Water, let alone a genius!"

Yagura said in a cold voice and immediately gave the order.

"Send an emergency signal and ask the Mizukage to send out the Anbu to assist. Leave two people to protect the Daimyo, and the rest of you follow me to chase him. We must keep him in the Land of Water!"

"Yes!"
