Chapter 433: Mysterious strong man

Chapter 433 The mysterious strong man

After returning to the camp, Juzo Juzo, who was seriously injured, directly sought medical ninja for treatment, while Kurumi Kushimaru, who was slightly injured, reported the mission situation before Goju Yagura.

"When we were on a mission, we encountered a powerful Konoha team. The opponent had one more person than us. We fought hard but were ultimately defeated. During the battle, the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon was killed." Kushimaru said with a solemn expression.

 Kirigakure is a ninja village with cruel rules, so Kuriraki Kushimaru had to try his best to use language arts to mitigate the impact of their mission failure.

In a sense, Kurumi Kushimaru didn't lie. Kakashi did have one more person than them, although not everyone in Kakashi's team played a big role.

"The sacrifice of the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Ghost was not in vain. Several ninjas in the Konoha team were also seriously injured by us. However, due to the greater casualties on our side, in order not to affect the battle situation, we finally chose to retreat, but now A ninja who mastered ice escape stopped us.

 Fortunately, Mr. Han also came to support us. Because Loquat Juuzang and I were seriously injured, we retreated back to the camp early. The rest of the ninja swordsmen worked with Mr. Han to deal with the Konoha ninjas. "Kurira Kushimaru briefly explained the entire battle process.

Kurira Kushimaru thought that this mission should not be a big problem. Although one member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen was lost, the losses on Konoha's side were definitely greater.

You must know that this is a talented team that can defeat the Seven Ninja Swordsmen head-on. If they don't die, their future strength will be visible to the naked eye.

"The powerful Konoha team, are there any ninjas, Ino Shiga Butterfly?" Gouju Yagura thought for a while and asked.

The full deployment of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen is Kirigakure's big card. There are very few Konoha teams that can defeat the Seven Ninja Swordsmen on the east coast battlefield. Gotachibana Yagura believes that only Ino Shigacho or Orochimaru can lead the team. possible.

 But if Orochimaru led the team, the battle would not be a lose-lose situation, so Gouju Yagura directly asked Ino Shikacho.

 Kurihara Kushimaru's face was a little embarrassed under the mask, but he still honestly named Kakashi and the others, "There are Konoha super geniuses such as Kakashi Hatake, Metkai, and Obito Uchiha."

Although Shisui's performance was also amazing, Kurumi Kushimaru didn't know Shisui's name.

A look of astonishment flashed across Goju Yagura's face. It couldn't be said to be slightly different from what he had imagined, but it could only be said to have nothing to do with it.

As one of the senior officials of Kirigakure, Goju Yagura is no stranger to these three names. He has seen the report of Genshi leading the team to participate in the Chunin Examination, and knows that these three people are geniuses who appeared in Konoha Chunin Examination, and even Defeated several young geniuses that Kirigakure specially found.

"You mean you lost to a few Konoha ninjas who had just become chuunin two years ago?" Goji Yagura's eyes became sharp.

Tang Ju Yagura knows that Kakashi and the others are geniuses, but this is not the reason for the failure of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. You must know that the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are already famous ninjas, and genius is just their previous stage.

Feeling the strong pressure coming from Goju Yagura's body, Kurumi Kushimaru could not control the cold sweat on his forehead.

Different from their group debut, Goju Yagura is a truly powerful person in the ninja world, and is very likely to become the fourth generation Mizukage.

“Yakura-sama, our intelligence is lagging behind. They are much stronger now than they were during the Chunin Examination, especially Metkai.

Metkai mastered a powerful physical technique called Golden Skyline. He only used it twice in battle. The first time he severely injured the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon, and he only regained his combat effectiveness after having the same shark muscle treatment, and the second time he crushed it. The beheading sword almost killed Juuzang Loquat. "Kuri Sugawara explained bravely.

Although lies can be used to fool him, the body must be recovered after the battle. When the time comes to find out that the memory of the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Ghost is different from what he said, then he will really suffer the same crime, so Kuritari Kushimaru can only do his best. Use facts to explain.

“Not all of them are genius ninjas. There is also a middle-aged taijutsu ninja. If he hadn’t blocked the Tongcao Bairen and the Black Hoe Thunder Fang, we would have definitely killed Metkai and the others.”

 Gotachibana Yagura showed a thoughtful expression.

Although the defeat of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen is outrageous, the information revealed in it is horrifying to think about.

　　A few genius ninjas who are ten years old are actually capable of competing with the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. This is what they do when they are ten years old, so it will be better when they grow up.

"But if there is water but no moon, they probably won't be able to leave." Thinking of this, Goju Yagura calmed down.

  No matter how promising the future is, it is still a matter of the future. As long as we kill them all before reaching the future, so that they have no future, the problem will be solved.

Although Minazuki Han is not good at things, Goju Yagura still recognizes Minazuki Han's strength.

I have no brains to begin with. If I wasn't strong enough, how could I have been able to hang around in Kirigakure for so long and become the leader of the ninja clan?

 After asking for some details, Goju Yagura sent Kurumi Kushimaru for treatment, and then sent Kirigakure to the battle site to check the situation.

However, when the intelligence personnel sent by Goju Yagura came back, he got a piece of information that he did not expect at all.

“Han-sama is missing, the five Ninja Swordsmen including the Watermelon Fugu Oni-sama are missing, and there are only corpses of village ninjas on the battlefield.” Kirigakure reported in a low voice.

He lowered his head and did not dare to look at Goji Yagura's face, because he knew Goji Yagura would be very angry now.

 “Is Minazuki Han missing?” Goju Yagura looked at the information Kirigakure expressionlessly, and his tightly clenched fists showed that he was not as calm in his heart as he appeared on the surface.

 Information Kirigakure nodded, "There are traces of Master Han's ice escape on the battlefield, and there are a lot of broken ice on the ground."

 Gotachibana Yagura asked the information Kirigakure to retreat with a sullen face.

 “Mizuna Yuehan, you are a loser who fails to achieve anything but fails to accomplish anything!” Gouju Yagura couldn’t help but cursed in his heart.

Missing is just a nice word. There are only two possibilities for missing on the battlefield. The first possibility is that you became a deserter and defected, and the second possibility is that you were killed or caught by the enemy.

With his identity as Minazukihan, of course he would not defect. He is the leader of the ninja clan and one of the vested interests of the ninja village. Minazukihan has no reason to defect.

Since he didn’t defect, he would have been killed or captured. With Minazukihan’s strength, he probably wouldn’t be captured alive, so in Goji Yagura’s heart, Minazukihan was already dead.

Gotachibana Yagura is really hard to hold back, because not only Minazuki Han died, but also five members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

 If seven people use the Ninja Sword to save five and save two, it is basically useless. The remaining two can only be used as stronger jounin.

The dead Minazukihan plus the seven ninja swordsmen who existed in name only meant that Kirigakure lost two big cards at once.

"Such words are very detrimental to us. Who is the ninja who killed Minazuki Han? Are there any strong people who use ice escape in Konoha?" Goji Yagura's expression became gloomy.

He now wished he could resurrect Minazuki Han and beat him up, and he also wished he could send away the remaining Juzo and Kuri Kushimaru so that the seven Ninja Swordsmen could all go down together.

Although it was just a simple encounter, it destroyed all the advantages Kirigakure had in the Land of Fire, and even put them at a considerable disadvantage. Minazuki Han's death was not just as simple as the loss of a strong man. Minazuki Han had many arrangements of Kirigakure in his mind, as well as the camp location, supply route, and combat plan. Minazuki Han was fully aware of it.

 Because of Minazukihan's death, Goju Yagura must immediately change all the layout of Kirigakure on the east bank battlefield. This is no small project.

Feeling the terrifying murderous aura in the camp, Kirigakure, who was guarding outside, couldn't help but sweat, and held a tenth of a second of silence for those who offended Goju Yagura.

Although Gouju Yagura really wanted to kill someone to vent his anger, he knew that this was not the time to punish his subordinates. On the one hand, Gouju Yagura quickly ordered to adjust the strategy, and on the other hand, he summoned Juuzang Juzo and Kurumi Kushimaru to inquire about the details.

Gotachibana Yagura must first know who the ninja who killed Minazuki Han is. If it is Orochimaru or Inokachi, that's it, but if it is not them, it means that a new Konoha strongman has come to the battlefield.

"I didn't see his appearance, I only saw the ice escape ninjutsu he released." Loquat Juuzang shook his head and said.

Kuri-Kushimaru also nodded, they left too early.

 Goju Yagura's face darkened, and he struggled not to put his fists on their faces.

 Ace Assassination Squad? Waste team!

Kurihara Kushimaru looked at Gouju Yagura who was extremely angry and felt very confused. He didn't understand who had offended this battlefield commander. He was obviously fine not long ago.

"What happened? Black Hoe Leiya and the others haven't come back yet?" Loquat Juuzang suddenly remembered something.

　　It is rare for ninjas to have such a day-and-night battle. It had been a while since they left the battlefield, so it stands to reason that the battle is over.

"They can't come back. If nothing else happens, they will all be killed by Konoha ninjas." Goji Yagura said coldly.

"You guys are lucky, you escaped death because of your injuries." Goji Yagura did not conceal the ridicule in his words.

He was really **** off. With such a battle loss, he didn't even know who the opponent was, so how could he fight?

Just the information about Ice Escape cannot locate any strong person in Konoha, because there are currently no known strong people in Konoha who use Ice Escape.

Loquat Juzo and Kurisu Kushimaru looked at each other, and they both saw shock in each other's eyes.

They never expected that Minazukihan and the others would actually die. What kind of strength would it take to kill them all? Could it be that Orochimaru will also come on stage later?

“Are there any talents worth noting among that genius team?” Gouju Yagura asked.

 Since Minazuki Han is dead, those talented ninjas are likely to survive, and Goju Yagura must update their information and increase their priority at the same time.

“There is an Uchiha ninja who is younger than Uchiha Obito and is also a genius.” Kurihara Kushimaru quickly drew a sketch of Shisui based on the memory in his mind and handed it to Goju Yagura.

After receiving the sketch, Goju Yagura asked a few more questions. Seeing that he could not get much useful information from the two of them, he asked them to retreat and recuperate.

　　Goju Yagura quickly adjusted the layout of Kirigakure and reported the latest information to Kirigakure Village.

 His side has insufficient combat power. If he wants to continue to succeed on the east coast battlefield, he can only ask Kirigakure Village to provide support.

 Otherwise, the living space will be gradually compressed by the Konoha ninja troops until they are driven out of the Land of Fire.

 Gotachibana Yagura believes that Kirigakure should send reinforcements to continue fighting against Konoha, because this is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Normally, if you encounter a failure of this level, you can usually prepare to defend your homeland, but Kirigakure's opponent is Konoha, which is under siege.

 Currently, Konoha is at war on multiple fronts. If Kirigakure retreats, Konoha will not be able to pursue it, let alone invade the Kingdom of Water on the sea.

 In other words, Kirigakure can go to war without any scruples, and even if he loses to Konoha, he doesn't have to worry about being asked for compensation.

If Konoha really dares to ask Kirigakure to accompany him to continue spending time, it depends on whether Konoha can pass three great ninja villages.

 …

 Hokage Building, conference room.

At this time, all four top executives of Konoha gathered in the conference room.

"This Hanyu Mizuki actually killed four members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen while fighting against Minazuki Han. I'm afraid Minato couldn't have done better." Mito Kadenen admired.

 They were discussing the latest battle reports from the front line.

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and stroked his goatee. Although he knew Mu Yue's strength, he did not expect that Mu Yue could create such dazzling results in a short period of time.

"Hiruzen, if you had sent Mu Yue to the battlefield as I told you, the war situation would definitely be much better than it is now." At this time, Shimura Danzo couldn't help but tease Sarutobi Hiruzen, he had long thought Mu Yue was asked to help Orochimaru build a career, but Sarutobi Hiruzen always refused.

“Mu Yue is an excellent root member that I trained, and I know exactly where he can play a role.” Danzo Shimura emphasized.

 Mito Kadoyan and Koharu, who had gone to bed, looked at Shimura Danzo with a somewhat surprised look. They did not expect that Mu Yue was trained by Shimura Danzo.

"First of all, Mu Yue was not suitable for the battlefield at that time. Secondly, Mu Yue's current strength was mainly due to her own efforts and was not cultivated by you. Did you teach him Danzo the combination of ninjutsu? Or did you teach him the flying thunder **** technique? ?" Sarutobi Hiruzen retorted.

 He taught Mu Yue ninjutsu and he didn't even say that Mu Yue was trained by him. Danzo Shimura said that Mu Yue was trained by him just to put his own face on it.

From Sarutobi Hiruzen's point of view, Mu Yue's main reason is that he is talented enough and works hard enough. In addition, Sarutobi Hiruzen also provides enough resources, which is why Mu Yue is what he is today.

As for the roots, that purely restricted Mu Yue’s development, otherwise how could Mu Yue be separated from the roots and grow faster.

“Mu Yue has laid a solid foundation at the root!” Danzo Shimura said vehemently.

Of course he knew that Mu Yue's current strength had nothing to do with his roots. It was only after Sarutobi Hiruzen trained him that his strength took off. However, he must have a share of the credit for cultivating Mu Yue. After all, Mu Yue was also his root ninja, even though it was against the rules. Cultivated.

When Danzo Shimura said this, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't refute it. After all, Mu Yue was considered an elite among jounin when he first emerged from the root.

After a brief exchange of words, they continued to have a meeting, discussing whether to spread Mu Yue's deeds to increase morale or to temporarily conceal Mu Yue's deeds and let Mu Yue become a surprise soldier.
