Chapter 314: Spear of Death, Enemies Hidden in the Mist
In a dilapidated underground chapel,
Hidan listened to Lao Zi's mumbling with a slightly reserved look in his eyes. When the other party turned his head and said the words to kill Uchiha Ci, a strong murderous intent suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Two days ago, he was supposed to be under Terumi Mei's protection, which he called "imprisonment".
However, after the second assassination failed, the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Thunder was furious and ordered a large number of Kumogakure ninjas to dispatch, including even the young Ai, the son of the third Raikage.
The members of the Immortal Evil Gang were sacrificed one by one in front of Hidan. Seeing that almost everyone was arrested and about to be sent to the execution ground for execution, he had no choice but to seek medical treatment in a hurry and rely on a few senior Yu Ninja to help him. All parties requested assistance, including Konoha, Kirigakure, Sunagakure, and Iwagakure.
Asking Sunagakure for help exposed his own information to Scorpion's sight.
The request for help from Konoha fell into disarray and received no response at all. (Minato didn't know Hidan and was busy contacting the Daimyo's son and Kirigakure.)
The letter sent to Kirigakure finally fell into Terumi Mei's hands.
However,
Before Terumi Mei, another force contacted Hidan in advance.
It was Iwagakure.
The chips, plans, and future promised by the other party gave Hidan a glimmer of hope.
A glimmer of hope to save the Kingdom of Tang from war!
It was precisely because of this that Hidan mysteriously disappeared from Kirigakure's guard one day ago with the help of Iwagakure.
Both parties have their own needs,
Iwagakure needs Hidan's power;
Hidan, on the other hand, needs the peace promised by Iwagakure.
He held the jet black spear in his hand and was silent for a moment. Even though he heard that the other party wanted to kill Uchiha Ci as his eldest brother, Hidan still suppressed the urge to kill the other party immediately, give up the deal and look for Uchiha Ci instead. in my heart.
Although he is still a child, he is no longer just a child.
In addition to his friendship with Uchiha Ci, Hidan was now burdened with the future of the entire country of Yu.
This heavy burden forced him to give up all unrealistic fantasies and accept the current reality.
If it is possible,
Hidan wanted to unconditionally trust Uchiha Ci like he did when he was underground in the Evil God Cult, and bet everything on him, hoping that he would bring a better future to the Country of Yu.
However, the reality that Hidan had to face was——
After the incident that flooded the capital, Iwagakure and Kirigakure started a war far greater than before on this land, and they had to crawl around like dogs and run away.
But Uchiha Ci, who made the promise, ran away without looking back.
No more messages or replies.
now,
Even after hearing that the real Uchiha Ci had come to the Land of Thunder and issued a declaration to assassinate the Daimyo Lord, Hidan had no way out and could only close his eyes in pain.
It's too late for Uchiha to resign you!
After thinking this, Hidan raised his head, tried hard to suppress the violent expression full of murderous intent, and said dullly:
"Don't forget what you promised me!"
Hearing this, Lao Zi turned his head slightly, revealing a faint and sinister smile.
"certainly!"
"The Kingdom of Tang will gain peace because of this, and the sacrifices of all the immortal villains will be meaningful. However, Kirigakure and Kumogakure, who committed atrocities against you, will pay a heavy price!"
"After all, you are our secret weapon——"
"This is for the third generation Raikage Ai, to break through the strongest shield that has made him arrogant all his life,"
Lao Zi stared at Hidan, unable to sleep due to the grief of Loess's death in front of him, a look of madness appeared in his bloodshot eyes,
"The Spear of Death!"

the other side,
After sealing the eight-tailed horns in the sealing scroll provided by Orochimaru, and obtaining the rafting route map of Turtle Island,
They also found a lot of materials stored by Orochimaru from the storage room of the laboratory, including clothing, ninja tools, food, military food pills, etc.
Uchiha Ci, who finally had a good meal, took care of himself.
After trimming the messy long hair that had almost reached the waist, it was cut to the point where it could only be worn over the shoulders without affecting the fight.
Wearing a black short-sleeved shirt with a gray lining and a stand-up collar, Orochimaru's same purple tie around his waist, loose bloomers and leggings, black ninja boots.
The only drawback is that there is no Uchiha clan emblem on the clothes, which is not eye-catching enough.
Stepping out of the secret laboratory, Uchiha Ci put on a black robe and a hat, and walked through the residential area of Yunming City, planning to go to Turtle Island.
After Turtle Island was taken away by Orochimaru,
Currently drifting on the sea following a route unknown to Kumogakure,
Yunming City is located inland, still some distance from the seaside. If you want to reach Turtle Island, you must first go to the seaside.
It's easier to go to the beach. With Uchiha's speed, it won't take two hours to arrive.
However, it is hard to say about cross-sea matters.
First of all, in the endless sea, it is not practical to cross the sea by walking on water.
If you want to reach Turtle Island floating on the sea, you can only reach it by chartered boat.
However, given the situation just after Orochimaru captured Kameshima, the coast of the Kingdom of Thunder was not peaceful. Losing Kameshima was equivalent to losing the perfect Jinchuuriki of the future.
Kumogakure attaches great importance to this and has taken control of all the ships on the east coast. He is constantly sending fleets to search for traces of Turtle Island.
Under such circumstances, it is not easy to get a boat to go to sea in the Kingdom of Thunder.
Orochimaru seized the island by landing on land and controlled the island turtle with a large dose of illusion pills, so he could not give Uchiha Ci any help in landing on the island,
nor could he control the island turtle from thousands of miles away to swim to the shore to pick up Uchiha Ci.
Uchiha Ci could certainly seize the ship through Sharingan hypnosis and have someone take him to Turtle Island,
but under the conditions of ship control and inspection,
seeking help from Mei Terumi is undoubtedly a better option than this option.
Soon, he returned to the abandoned city wall and happened to meet Mei Terumi who was looking for him.
"Borrow a boat? You want to go out to sea?"
Mei Terumi looked at Uchiha Ci, who had gone out for a stroll and came back with a new outfit after beating a rich man from somewhere. Her beautiful eyes lingered on Uchiha Ci's face for a moment, and then she said in surprise,
"The boat is fine,"
"It's just that." Mei Terumi frowned,
"I don't know what happened on the east coast of the Lightning Country. It has been strictly controlled by the Cloud Village recently. All ships entering and leaving must be investigated and consulted."
"If you want to go out to sea, you can only depart from the dock of the Frost Country."
"But." Mei Terumi looked embarrassed,
"But what?" Uchiha Ci raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.
As the heir of the Terumi family, one of the three major families in the Mist Village, Mei Terumi would actually be troubled by such a thing?
"Five days later, the other side of Kirigakure that will come to participate in the Five-Country Talks will also arrive from this direction."
Mei Terumi frowned and said hesitantly:
"Are you leaving today? Can you wait a day?"
Uchiha Ci thought about it and shook his head.
It takes time to seal the horns of the Eight-Tails and verify some of his own guesses and abilities. In addition to the time of going back and forth,
I have to come back in five days to give Akatsuki and everyone a clear answer, and kill the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning.
Time is tight.
"Okay." Mei Terumi exhaled, looked directly at Uchiha Ci, and said solemnly:
"Then you have to be careful to avoid some people."
"The Kirigakure pursuit force is directly under the Third Mizukage!"
"In addition to Mangetsu Kizuki, there are some terrible monsters in this team."
