Chapter 239 Double Accident
Spring Country.
It is a small island country located on the southern sea.
The area of the whole country is much smaller than that of the five major countries, even compared with the surrounding Tea Country and Rainbow Country.
But Spring Country is a country with a very prosperous economy.
One reason is its climate environment. Just like the name of the country, this country is like spring all year round. No matter what kind of crops can thrive on the land of this country, the people of Spring Country not only do not need to worry about their food production, but also can export to surrounding countries and earn considerable income.
Another reason is the excellent geographical location of Spring Country. Unlike Tea Country and Rainbow Country, which are somewhat remote, Spring Country is located in the middle of the mainland and the southern countries. Even if the people of Sushui Country want to go to the mainland, Spring Country is one of the best transit stations.
This will bring a lot of business opportunities to Spring Country.
There are countless merchants and tourists who pass through Spring Country. The influx of a large number of foreign personnel has further promoted the development of local tourism and service industries. Today, the entire Spring Country has become an extremely rich country.
Using some special terms from Menma's previous life, the overall GDP of Spring Country is indeed not as good as the five major countries, but the per capita GDP and per capita income are already in the forefront of the world.
It can even compete with the Fire Country.
In addition, the many Ninja World Wars have never affected this small country, and there is no major internal strife in the country. At most, the heirs of the daimyo may occasionally compete and fight with each other, but it will not affect the overall development of Spring Country.
The entire country has been thriving for decades and hundreds of years.
What is more worth mentioning is that in this country, the development of science and technology is also at the forefront of the world. Except for some really high-end scientific research technologies involving military industry, Spring Country has all other science and technology, and they are all the most advanced ones.
Therefore, when Menma stepped into this country.
It was also rare to feel a little bit back to the society of the previous life.
‘Is this the Spring Country? It is really a little beyond my expectations. ’
Menma boarded the largest port city in the north of Spring Country, and a rare look of surprise appeared on his face.
If Spring Country can continue to develop at this pace, and the high-level politicians and nobles such as Daimyo can pay more attention to the development of science and technology, Menma has sufficient reason to believe that the future of this country will develop faster than any other country in the world, and perhaps in a few decades, it can truly enter the kind of modernization model of Menma’s previous life society.
But this is just a thought.
In this world with such extraordinary power as ninja, does the technology tree want to be on the right track? That is not a simple matter. The daimyo and politicians of various countries are unlikely to have such awareness. If they did, they would have developed it in the early years.
It is even more impossible to wait until now.
As for Menma, he has no intention to intervene in this aspect.
Unless everything comes to an end and he can successfully eliminate all enemies, then he will have the mind, interest, and most importantly, the qualification to intervene in this aspect.
Now he should just honestly think about how to make himself stronger!
Entering this port city in a row.
As a master of seeding.
In the Spring Country, Orochimaru also established a small base of his own. The purpose is also very simple, which is to collect as much information as possible from the exchanges, and then carry out the necessary information transmission work.
Kabuto Yakushi also brought Menma directly to this base located in the northern coastal area of the Spring Country.
However, the scene in front of them was beyond the expectations of Menma and Kabuto Yakushi.
This scene has obviously become a ruin.
All of this shows that this stronghold has been destroyed by humans.
Menma's scattered perception also did not detect any chakra fluctuations under the ruins.
This shows that Orochimaru's subordinates in the stronghold were either killed in battle or fled.
But since Kabuto Yakushi did not receive any information, the probability of the former is undoubtedly close to 100%.
At this moment, the expression of this confidant of Orochimaru was extremely gloomy. The stronghold was destroyed. This was not the first time. As a wanted person by Konoha and Akatsuki, it occasionally clashed with other ninja villages in the past years.
The ninjas under Orochimaru died in battle while performing missions, and the strongholds they were responsible for were destroyed. This was not the first or second time.
But almost every time, there would be corresponding intelligence.
And it would not be destroyed so thoroughly.
But today was different.
This stronghold was destroyed cleanly, and most importantly, no information was transmitted.
As the one with the highest status under Orochimaru, Kabuto Yakushi knows much more than ordinary people. The moment he saw this scene, he naturally thought of many aspects.
"Looking at the traces at the scene, this should be what happened not long ago. It can't be earlier than yesterday at the earliest. Moreover, the strength of the attacker should be far superior to Orochimaru-san's subordinates in the stronghold. There is not much that can be seen at all. Traces of resistance.”
Menma walked on the ruins. After looking around for a while, he said with a slight smile.
"Mist ninja? Vulpix? Or someone else?"
Menma turned to look at Yakushi Kabuto, the words he said were meaningful, especially the deliberate pause and emphasis at the end.
Even if there is no evidence.
But at this moment.
Menma also directly suspected Konoha, especially Shimura Danzo.
Of course, Kabuto Yakushi could hear the deeper meaning of Menma's words. At that moment, he took a deep breath and said, "These are all possible, but we should investigate first."
"Haha, that's your business, Tousou-san, but what I need now is information on the whereabouts of the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki—Hugao-san! If this stronghold has been destroyed, it will be difficult to pinpoint Hugao-san's whereabouts."
Menma said calmly.
He came all the way here because of Yugao, who was one of the important combat forces in his future plan. No matter what method he used, Menma wanted to bring Yugao into his team.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Menma, that the person following is still there. The problem with this stronghold is not big, but it may take a little more time."
Yakushi Kabuto took a deep breath and returned to his previous smiling expression. For Yakushi Kabuto, it was just a stronghold, and the problem was not that big. All that needed to be paid attention to were the problems that extended later.
"Haha, that's fine. Please hurry up, Tou-san. Maybe that Yu Gao-san will just leave the Kingdom of Spring. I don't want to be in vain."
Menma said with a slight smile.
This is really not a worry. A full two or three days have passed since receiving the news until Menma arrived here today. This time may not be a big deal to ordinary people, but if the ninja really lets go If you use your hands and feet to rush wildly, it is very possible to escape a long distance.
Not to mention someone like Yu Gao.
"Yeah, I understand, Menma-kun!"
If the stronghold is still there, you can directly contact the people you are tracking without spending any time. But now that the stronghold is destroyed, Yakushi Kabuto will have to spend more time to contact those people again. The most important thing is, The strongholds have been destroyed, and there is a big question mark as to whether those who are following them are intact.
therefore.
Kabuto Yakushi also took action immediately.
While feeding back the news here to Orochimaru through the channel of the psychic beast to seek further support, he also immediately mobilized personnel from surrounding strongholds to conduct a carpet-like search of the entire Kingdom of Spring, and conduct special code connection one by one. See if the person you arranged to track can still be contacted.
It was almost when Kabuto Yakushi took action.
In the southeast of this destroyed stronghold, in the hinterland of the Kingdom of Spring.
"Kumo Ninja? Why are you blocking my way!?"
A young man wearing a blue open-chested feather woven costume with a foam blowing device on his waist looked at the more than ten figures surrounding him at this moment, and his orange pupils also revealed a look. A cold and stern look.
The bright Kumo ninja uniform, and the Kumo ninja forehead protector on his forehead.
All of which reveal the identity of these people.
Moreover, the chakra aura exuding from his body was colder and stronger than the last.
Especially the white-haired man at the head.
Yugao could tell with just one glance that this Kumo nin must be very strong.
Yu Gao's side intuition was not wrong either.
This white-haired young man is currently the strongest Jonin in Kumogakure Village, and he is also recognized as a candidate for the next Raikage.
He is already Darui with a power that is infinitely close to the shadow level!
"The Six-Tails Jinchuuriki - Yu Gao, we are following the order of the Raikage to invite you to our Kumogakure Village as a guest."
Darui looked at Yu Gao below with a lazy look, and said in a calm tone.
The words he spoke seemed to be very polite, but they clearly revealed a meaning that could not be refused.
Ling Yugao's expression became more solemn than ever before.
"What if I say no?"
Yugao replied with a stern expression.
"Haha, I'm afraid I can't help myself, Your Excellency Yu Gao."
Darui narrowed his eyes slightly, with a cold look in his pupils.
As the most trusted subordinate of the Fourth Raikage, he also claims to be the strongest being in the Ninja Village besides those seniors.
Darui also has his own pride.
The Six-Tails Jinchuuriki! ?
It is indeed very strong.
But so what! ?
There is absolutely no chance of letting go of the prey they are targeting in Yunyin Village.
"superior!"
A deep shout.
The powerful chakra that burst out directly.
"Zizzssssssssss!!"
Darui was also the first to take action, and a black lightning as black as ink suddenly appeared!
