Chapter 161 An Encounter Worth Looking Forward To

Chapter 163 An encounter worth looking forward to

About two years ago, when designing the hospital in the Land of Rain, Butterfly Ninja said this to Giyuu:

“The appearance of a country’s most important buildings can to some extent reflect the psychological state of its occupants, especially those in power.”

"Why not a designer?"

"Because no matter what the design is, it has to be decided by the person who paid for it. The things on the drawings must be able to meet certain psychological expectations of those in power before they can be put into construction and finally completed as a real building."

While explaining, the Butterfly Ninja picked up a postcard on the table that Naruto asked Anjurou to bring to Giyuu.

The front of the postcard describes the current situation of Naruto and Sasuke, and the back shows a panoramic view of Konoha from a side perspective:

“For example, the Hokage Building in this picture is a tubular building built under Shadow Rock.

"It is about the same distance from any corner on the edge of the village. It is like a tree trunk with spreading branches and leaves, growing under the gaze of successive Hokages.

“Things like this express the core values ​​that the village openly promotes.

"No matter whether the ruler really thinks so, but on important occasions, he will always mention it."

After putting down the postcard, she opened the window and pointed at the dim sky.

"And the other type, such as the steel tower that belongs to Sansho Hanzo and Pain, directly reflects the self-perception of being superior to others. One of them is called the demigod of the ninja world, and the other simply calls himself a god. Of course I would choose to live in the place farthest from the ground.

"But being far away from the ground means being far away from the people of this country. You may be able to see far if you stand high, but you will definitely not be able to see clearly."

"However, considering that Yuyin Village is a real jungle society that worships power extremely, has a harsh and cold-blooded style, and likes to deify the strong, it is not unusual to have such a tower. But if it is a country that has peace all year round, their important buildings Objects will never be so angular.”

"I don't think so."

Yiyong frowned. She always felt that Butterfly Ninja's theory was just like her understanding of dreams. It was a bit far-fetched: "Besides, your idea cannot be verified at all. In this world, is there really such a country that is at peace all year round? ?"

Where there are people, there is no peace.

Where there are ninjas, there is almost no peace.

"To my surprise, there is a place."

The butterfly ninja smiled mysteriously, walked quickly to the other end of the room, came under the huge map hanging on the wall, and pointed to the upper left corner of the ninja world.

"Snow Country?"

Yiyong observed carefully for a while. He didn't even see the western border of the country. Obviously, even the person who drew the map didn't know much about this country.

"Yes, the country of Snow is blocked from the east, west, and south by snowy mountains, volcanic belts, and plateau terrain. The only channel for communication with the outside world is a port in the north. With such a unique terrain advantage, even if the five major countries conquer half of the continent, Even if it sinks, it won’t affect them. It’s not an exaggeration to say that this place is a paradise.

Butterfly Ninja's smile was sincere. It was as if she couldn't help but feel happy at the thought of such a place in the world.

"It is precisely because the three consecutive ninja wars had no impact on them, so the people of Snow Country can always focus on themselves and study the technologies that can be used to improve their lives. The world's first train, the first The internal combustion engine, the first camera, and the first ship were all born in this remote and small country.

"I've seen from Orochimaru's travel notes before that the Daimyo of the Land of Snow has a sky palace that looks like an airplane. How about it? It's amazing, isn't it?"

"You seem to be interested in these."

Butterfly Ninja nodded: "Of course. At that time (referring to the previous life), I had experienced so many things that ordinary people would never dare to think about, but I had never even been on a plane or a ship. It feels pity when I think about it.

"In the first year of Taisho (1912), I took the newspaper and told my sister that after we killed Guiwu Shiwuhan, we would go to Europe and cross the Atlantic Ocean on the Titanic, which was known as the 'first in the world'. Take a good look at the rest of the world.”

At this point, Butterfly Ninja seemed to be lost in memories, and his speech gradually slowed down.

"Although the giant ship that the Westerners blew into the sky sank on its first voyage, my sister did not even survive until it set sail. After that, I was left alone, and I was no longer interested in making similar jokes. This The plan is gone.”

Yiyong stared at her carefully and found that the Butterfly Ninja did not fall into sadness. Instead, his heartbeat was slow and the corners of his mouth were raised, so he did not disturb her.

The butterfly ninja stared at the map and was silent for a while before suddenly saying: "I have an idea."

She turned her head, her eyes sparkling: "After we have solved the matters at hand, how about we take a boat to the Land of Snow together, ask their daimyo to borrow the flying palace, and go up to the sky to see it? "

"Not interested in."

Yiyong shook his head nonchalantly, "You can fly into the sky with the help of those bugs, and after I master the breath of wind, I should also develop the technique of controlling airflow to fly. There is no need to sit on such a thing."

"Can that be the same? Aren't you curious about how that thing works?"

"Why can birds fly? If you study this, you will understand the principle."

"Then let's make a bet."

Butterfly Ninja put his hands behind his back and put "I will definitely win" on his forehead:

"Don't you believe my theory about buildings? If one day we go to the country of snow and find that the most important buildings in that country are completely different from the core buildings of those power-seeking ninja villages, then you will be honest How about sitting in that palace in the sky with me?"

"Speak as if the palace is yours."

"I'll definitely be able to borrow it if I think of a way. How about it, are you willing to agree to this bet?"

"You only talked about what happens if you win, but what if..."

"Just tell me whether you agree or not."

"All right."

Now two years have passed, and the righteous finally came to the country of snow.

He stood on the rooftop of the palace, and the answer lay at his feet.

Butterfly Ren lost, and he didn't feel happy at all.

This country is isolated from the world and has a long life expectancy that is envied by 90% of the people in the ninja world. The residence of its daimyo and the leader of the ninja village is actually a steel fortress made of cement mixed with metal powder.

This fortress is far away from cities and settlements. It is protected among three smooth and towering icebergs. It is completely dark and full of angular and even redundant bunker towers, like a dormant steel behemoth.

The first second Yiyong saw this building, he had a vague idea of ​​the monarch of this country——

He is ambitious, distant from the people, tough but insecure, and has a romanticized desire for war.

Combined with the recent disappearance of a large number of young people in this country, Yiyong did not have any joy and pleasure at all in winning the bet.

The only thing to be thankful for is that their disappearance seems to have nothing to do with Orochimaru, and no one has become a guinea pig - it's just that the daimyo Feng Hua Furu Tao wanted to buy labor for free because he was short of money, so he arrested a group of young laborers to dig for him. Mine, build railroads, and make chakra armor, that's all.

Most of them will eventually be able to go home alive.

It was just early in the morning.

Yiyong stood on the edge of the rooftop at the top of the palace, fiddling with Fenghua Furuntao's chakra armor in his hand, as if waiting for something, until a painful intake of breath caught his attention.

Feng Hua Raging Tao woke up from his coma. Without his chakra armor, the biting cold wind that had never bothered him in the past had become something that caused him more pain than his broken arms.

He noticed that Yiyong turned to look at him, breathing heavily and shrinking back, only to hit something hard.

Feng Hua Ragao turned his head and was suddenly covered in ice - there were at least sixty or seventy snow ninjas lying on the platform, probably all of his subordinates in this building.

But immediately, he regained his composure and scanned all the snow ninjas who had fallen to the ground. When he found that there was no one he was looking for, he breathed a sigh of relief. When he turned back to face Giyuu, he found some of the daimyo's momentum.

"who are you?"

Feng Hua Furu Tao showed that he glanced at the chakra armor in Yiyong's hand, thoughtfully, and then shifted his gaze to the latter's face.

It's frustrating to say.

I was just waiting for a few guests in the palace, when suddenly someone fell from the roof. Before he could punch out, or even see the opponent's face or sword clearly, his hands were cut off and he was knocked unconscious.

Now I finally see the "assassin's" face, but I find that he is shockingly young. This reminds Feng Hua Ragao of a not so comfortable past.

"you do not know me?"

Yiyong was a little surprised.

It's not because of his Uchiha pride, but because there are very few people in this world - especially the king of a country - who haven't seen his wanted notice.

It seems that the occlusion of the environment goes both ways - outsiders do not know what is happening in the Snow Country, and the Snow Country also knows very little about the outside world.

"I know you are a ninja from Konoha."

Feng Hua Nu Lao deflated his cod mouth and said, "You have the same eyes as that Hatake Kakashi."

"I'm not a ninja. He only has one eye like this, and the color is different." Giyuu corrected him seriously, "Have you seen Kakashi Hatake?"

"Hmph, if it weren't for that nosy bastard..." Fenghua gritted his teeth angrily, "Did that woman hire you Konoha to deal with me? You are so confident, and you only sent one kid... …”

"Woman?" Yiyong looked confused, not knowing what he was talking about. It seems that this poor daimyo still has some conflicts with Konoha.

However, seeing Yiyong's clueless reaction, Fenghua Furuntao's mood became calmer.

Although he didn't show it on his face, Yiyong could clearly see his heart rate changes and neurotransmitter secretion.

Yiyong leaned down and said, "Ever since you woke up, you seem to be more relaxed with every word you speak. You don't look like a person who is about to lose everything."

The exaggerated expression of wind, flowers and anger froze on his face, and his heart beat like a drum.

[What's going on with this guy? Is it the problem with these eyes? Can he read my mind? 】

Although he was panicking, Feng Hua Nu Tao still said hard: "I don't know what you are talking about. I only know that since you didn't kill me, you must be useful to me, that's all."

As for the severed hand, it is nothing to the technologically advanced Snow Country. There are also many ninjas under him who have steel prosthetics.

Yiyong shook his head: "I don't need you. Your men have told me the specific locations where the workers are imprisoned, and I have sent shadow clones to deal with your minions left in those places. I have also notified those who are missing. The militia formed voluntarily by the parents will probably arrive here soon.”

Before Fenghua Furuntao could speak again, Yiyong suddenly said: "When you heard that I sent a shadow clone out, your heartbeat accelerated again. This shows that the weaker I am, the more I meet your expectations."

"...What exactly are you..."

Feng Hua Nu Tao swallowed. It was hard to describe the feeling of being completely seen through. It was like having a layer of skin peeled off in public.

"You expected that someone else would come to deal with me." Yiyong judged: "And you think he will definitely be able to defeat me, right?"

"Hmph, he is indeed a genius cultivated by the Great Ninja Village. Now that you have figured it out, I will tell you."

Feng Hua Nu Tao gritted his teeth, "Although I am the leader of the snow ninja, I am not the strongest ninja in this country..."

Yiyong nodded in agreement: "I see."

"...When that Hatake Kakashi came here, he was a little older than you, and he could easily subdue a half-baked ninja like me, as well as the losers behind me."

Fenghua Furuntao said, looking over Yiyong's shoulders, "But when he faced the avalanche of wolf teeth under my men, he could only run away with his head in his arms!"

Giyuu could tell that Fenghua Furumao was not bragging, but really believed that the "Spike Avalanche" could easily deal with Hatake Kakashi ten years ago.

[Is this an enemy that needs to be treated with more than half the strength? 】

Giyuu has secretly adjusted the opponent to be on the same level as Hatake Kakashi.

"Then where is he now?" Yiyong asked.

"He has arrived."

Yiyong followed his line of sight and saw a huge airship flying slowly from above the ice wall to the east of the palace.

[Is this the so-called palace in the sky? 】

He turned his Sharingan, and sure enough he saw a snow ninja with a long face and white clothes sticking his head out to look here, with a calm and calm expression on his face. Behind him, there seemed to be several figures standing in slightly bloated clothes.

Yiyong zoomed in, and then he discovered that behind Langya Xuebeng, there were three rock ninjas standing, whispering something to each other.

"Iwa Ninja?" Yiyong frowned.

"It's too late to see now."

The closer the airship got, the more confident Fenghua Furudao became, "He was not with me before because he had three Jonin from the Earth Kingdom to entertain. You took off my clothes in the wrong way while I was fainting. He took my armor and accidentally set off the alarm signal connected to that airship! As long as he receives the signal, he will rush back at all costs!"

"I heard that Iwa Ninja and Konoha have been at odds for many years, and now I see a Konoha ninja risking the world's disapproval and taking action against a great name of a country... Guess, will they easily let go of a target like you? ?”

The courage in Feng Hua Ragao finally swelled enough to support him to stand up.

"Escape now, you may still have a chance of survival."

He said with a victorious smile: "Don't make any mistakes, such as taking me as a hostage. That will only slow down your escape!"

However, Giyuu wasn't listening to him at all.

[Is this incident still related to Iwa Ninja? 】

Although Iwa Ninja has signed a non-aggression agreement with Konoha, it has nothing to do with him, Giyuu Uchiha, a wanted criminal.

On the contrary, there is a serious blood feud between Iwa Ninja and Uchiha!

Giyuu had no doubt that the three Iwagakure jounin would definitely want to kill him.

[A character who can defeat Kakashi, and three powerful jonins. Such opponents cannot be spared. 】

The moment he made this decision, all the snowflakes within a 100-meter radius centered on Yiyong froze in the air.

He leaned forward slightly, his eyes locked on the airship diagonally above him, calculating the approximate distance, intending to destroy the "air palace" directly with one blow.

"Breath of Wind·One Type..."

Yiyong stepped back with his left leg and held the handle of the knife with his right hand. The rich blue air ball continued to roll from under his body in all directions. As soon as he launched an attack, the accumulated energy would send him into the sky!

"cut--"

"Wait a minute! Don't do anything yet!"

An unexpected shout came from the airship, and then he saw a long package being thrown from the airship.

Giyu turned his Sharingan and saw clearly that the person wrapped in a ball of yellow mud was not the Wolf Fang Avalanche just now.

In order to prevent the opponent from being thrown to death, Yiyong raised his hand, and the green air mass gathered around his body immediately rose into the air, giving him a buffer before falling to the ground.

Of course, Yiyong did not forget the broken hand package.

"avalanche?!"

Feng Hua Nu Tao looked at his men on the ground, then at the airship and Yiyong in the sky, and was suddenly shocked, "Are you in the same group?"

However, the three rock ninjas who were still flying in the sky were explaining loudly to another person:

"Uchiha Giyu! No matter what you find in the Land of Snow, it has nothing to do with us! We are here this time to discuss the construction of the railway between the two countries and the purchase of mining machinery according to the order of the Daimyo. Everything else is related to We have nothing to do with it!”

The airship was suspended in mid-air and stopped descending, but the people below could clearly hear the nervousness and panic of the person who was speaking.

"We have no hostility towards you, and please don't attack us!"

"..." Glancing at the astonished Fenghua Nutao, Yiyong frowned: "You come down."

The three people on the airship looked at each other, as if they were discussing something, but soon came to a conclusion.

"Land! Land!"

One of the Rock Ninjas shouted in the direction of the cockpit: "Be gentle, don't make it seem like we are going to attack him!"

Just like that, five minutes later, the airship finally landed on the rooftop of the palace.

The three Rock Ninjas jumped out of the cabin with their hands raised high, showing that they had no weapons and had not prepared any dangerous ninjutsu.

Although the posture was a bit humiliating, the policy of the Rock Ninja Village this year has been made very clear-

No conflict with Uchiha Yiyong in any form is allowed.

If you meet the other party during the mission, you can just give up the mission.

The last person who received this treatment was called Namikaze Minato.

"We have no hostility towards you."

The oldest ninja among the three emphasized again, "No matter what these snow ninjas are researching, it has nothing to do with us."

"No hostility is a lie." Giyuu's words almost made the three people's heartbeats stop, "The latter part is true."

The three exchanged glances with each other and breathed a sigh of relief as if they had escaped from the dead.

The resentment of the Rock Ninjas towards the Uchiha, especially Uchiha Shisui, has never weakened for a day. Even though it was later confirmed that this was a trap set by Danzo, the people died at the hands of Uchiha Shisui after all.

But it is difficult for the people in the village to unify their attitude towards Uchiha Giyuu.

Especially that year, thirty Rock Ninjas and thirty Cloud Ninjas went to destroy other people's shrines, but all the Cloud Ninjas died, and the Rock Ninjas were only injured. This made many people, especially the families and friends of the injured, feel a little grateful to Uchiha Giyuu.

"Since it has nothing to do with you, you can leave." After Giyuu confirmed that the three were not lying, he stopped paying attention to them.

"Okay." The three Rock Ninjas were overjoyed and were about to leave this place of right and wrong.

"Wait a minute!" Fenghua Nutao couldn't believe it. "According to the convention of the ninja world, if the life and safety of a daimyo of a country is threatened, you ninjas of the big countries are obliged to protect me!"

This is true.

Daimyo are absolutely special in the ninja world, especially the daimyo of the five major countries.

For example, even if the Rock Village beats the Cloud Village to the point of extinction, once the life and safety of the daimyo of the Rock Village is in danger, if the ninjas of the Cloud Village are around, they must step forward to provide necessary assistance.

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Jian Yiyong's eyes suddenly glanced over, and the ninja headed by the Rock Village quickly emphasized: "Except for the daimyo of the five major countries, the rest of the daimyo who want to be protected by this convention must pay a fee! Your brother Fenghua Zaoyuki paid the fee when he became a daimyo, but what does that have to do with you?"

"..." Fenghua Nutao opened his mouth. If he could afford the money, would he still need to kidnap workers to work for him?

Seeing that the three were about to leave again, he was completely desperate and shouted loudly: "If you help me kill him, I am willing to hand over the secret weapon designed by the previous daimyo to the Land of Earth! As long as you have that thing, you can immediately gain combat power that surpasses the five major countries (original words from the movie)!"

"What a joke, if it really happened, will you still be like this?"

"That's just because I haven't got the key yet!" Fenghua Nutao hurriedly explained: "You have also heard that before my brother died, he left a treasure that can change the world. It was for that thing that he spent all the assets of the country and left nothing for me..."

Yiyong could see that Fenghua Nutao seemed to believe it, just like he believed that the Wolf Fang Avalanche could defeat Kakashi.

But considering the degree of isolation of the Snow Country, and thinking about the Rain Country which is not isolated but has accepted the title of Hanzo Demigod, Giyuu still asked a question: "What level of power is the combat power that can surpass the five major countries?"

The three Rock Ninjas who had walked several meters away stopped, and they were obviously a little interested.

"Of course..."

Fenghua Nutao first glanced at the airship, then looked down at his palace, and finally gritted his teeth and pointed at the glacier surrounding the palace, "It is a power that can at least destroy the iceberg with one blow!"

"If it is just this level..."

The youngest of the Rock Ninjas scratched his head, "The three of us can do it together. Don't you have any correct concept of the combat power of ninjas?"

"No... concept?"

Looking at the increasingly sarcastic expressions on the faces of the three Rock Ninjas, Fenghua Nutao felt that his heart was hollowed out. He knelt down with a plop, like a criminal exposed by Conan.

"No idea..."

Just when Fenghua Nutao was doubting his life, the older ninja who had walked to the edge of the rooftop suddenly stopped and walked back as if he had remembered something.

"Uchiha Giyuu."

"Anything else?"

Giyuu asked in confusion.

"It's like this, Lord Ohnoki wants to invite you to go to the Iwagakure to participate in this year's Chunin Exam."

The older ninja said, "He sent someone to Konoha to deliver a letter before, but your father said that you haven't been home for at least two years, and he didn't know where you were, so the matter was left unresolved. Since I happened to meet you today, I just happened to tell you."

"Chunnin Exam?" Giyuu didn't understand, "But I'm not a ninja."

The three rock ninjas were silent at the same time.

After a long time, the older ninja explained, "The third generation meant that you are not asking you to participate in this Chunnin Exam as a candidate, but as an examiner."

"Why is that?" Giyuu knew nothing about politics and didn't understand Ohnoki's motives, "You want to trick me in and surround me and kill me?"

"I don't have that idea at all."

The consequences of surrounding and killing Uchiha Shisui last time were still vivid in his mind, and the older ninja quickly explained, "You may not have been home for too long, so you don't know that your brother is on the list of candidates this time..."

"Brother."

[Really? 】

"... there is your brother Uchiha Sasuke, who is the only Uchiha candidate this year.

"You should know the... grudges between the Rock Ninja and the Uchiha. The Rock Ninja Village has a large population. Even if we strictly control our subordinates, we can't ensure that everyone can act according to the rules."

The Jonin said cautiously: "In addition, even if we can restrain all the Rock Ninja from targeting your brother, we can't guarantee other countries, such as..."

He pointed to the northeast, meaning the Cloud Ninja, "Will they deliberately hurt Uchiha Sasuke to intensify the conflict between us. Therefore, the idea of ​​the Tsuchikage is that if someone like you is the examiner, the reputation alone may be enough to make most people dare not act rashly."

Since the matter involves Sasuke, Giyuu knew that he might not be able to stay out of it.

Although he knew the answer, Giyuu still asked: "Why not just cancel Sasuke's qualification for the exam? Isn't the Chunin Exam held twice a year?"

"As the organizer, we are not qualified to do so unless we catch Uchiha Sasuke violating the rules in our examination room. "

The older jonin smiled bitterly, "We also sent people to contact Konoha before, hoping that they would cancel Uchiha Sasuke's qualification for the exam to avoid complications, but your father thought it was a deliberate target, so he refused.

"He also said something serious like 'If Sasuke can't even overcome such a danger, he is not worthy of being his son', so the Tsuchikage-sama was prepared to ask you to take the exam."

"I understand." Giyu nodded, "I'll consider it."

Seeing that in addition to Orochimaru, there is one more reason to return to the Land of Fire.

"The message has been delivered, and we'll take our leave." After saying that, the three of them left as if they were escaping.

On the other side, Fenghua Nutao seemed to be disillusioned with his dream and collapsed to the ground without moving. Giyu stared at the corridor connecting to the palace under the opposite iceberg, while practicing the last of the five basic breathing methods - Thunder Breathing.

However, after about half an hour, Giyu's shoulders gradually relaxed and his head lowered - he fell asleep.

Since the chakra of the three-tail has been restored to full state, a large amount of chakra will leak out every day. If Giyuu cannot use the leaked part, he will inevitably be a little sleepy.

Although Giyuu rarely sleeps a full night, the time he takes a "nap" every day because of the three-tail adds up to six or seven hours.

Giyuu fell into a deep sleep, but Fenghua Nutao had an idea - he saw Giyuu sitting on the edge of the platform and fell asleep, so he moved his body and slowly crawled over.

His eyes were bloodshot and his face was purple. Until now, he had never thought that this stinky kid who fell from the ceiling would destroy his ten years of hard work and puncture his naive fantasy.

Although the probability of a person who has practiced chakra falling to death is extremely small, since the other party is sleeping so deeply...

[Why not give it a try? 】

Feng Hana Nu Tao was getting closer and closer to Giyuu like a wriggling maggot, but just as he put his upper body into the one-meter range of Giyuu, a dark gray, cactus-like illusory tail grew out from behind Giyuu, and then smashed down like a crooked tower, accurately breaking Feng Hana Nu Tao's two calves!

[Get out! ]

Suddenly, a loud bang sounded in his mind, scaring Feng Hana Nu Tao so much that he couldn't even make a sound, [Don't disturb his rest! ]

Without the protection of the chakra armor, the mental shock of the tailed beast made Feng Hana Nu Tao faint directly, and Giyuu also got a good sleep for more than two hours.

Until he was awakened by the Snow National Guards who came from the surroundings.

At that time, it was already dawn.

"Has everyone gone home?" In fact, there was no need to ask, those self-released shadow clones immediately gave Giyuu the answer he wanted.

It's just that these clones also hope that he can have a good sleep, so they will not automatically release until he wakes up.

Of the 260 people who were arrested and forced to do hard labor, 248 have returned home, and the remaining 12 died due to diet, work intensity, and excessive punishment.

Although there were deaths, for Giyuu, the number of people was right, and no one was really "missing", which meant that this place was not affected by Orochimaru after all.

"The matter has been resolved," he stood up and said to the militia of the Snow Country, that is, a group of old men and women who had lost their sons and daughters, "I should leave."

He still spoke stiffly and coldly, but the group of old people who had found their children didn't care at all.

"Isn't the enemy you are looking for here?" The leader of the militia was an old man wearing glasses, who looked gentle and refined.

"No." Giyuu shook his head, "It's better if he's not here. If it's him, it would be a luxury to find half of the people."

"Has the next stop been determined?"

"Yes." Giyuu recalled the marks on the map. Next, he would follow the marks of the missing incidents and check one by one in the order of the Snow Country, the Stone Country, the Bird Country, and the Grass Country. The final destination would be in the Fire Country.

At that time, he should take the opportunity to go back home and persuade Sasuke to participate in the Chunin Exam held in Konoha next time, and by the way, search around Konoha, the most dangerous place for Orochimaru.

"No matter where you choose to go, as long as it is another country, you will definitely cross those towering mountains."

"Yes." Giyuu estimated that at this speed, plus the investigation along the way, it would take him about twenty days to return to the Fire Country.

"In that case, please accept this thing as a thank you."

The old man pointed with his hand, and Yiyong looked in the direction of his arm and found that he was pointing at the "Sky Palace."

"That thing was designed by me and the former daimyo Hayateu-sama. It is powered by special fuel and controlled by the ninja's chakra. As long as it is not a ridiculously high mountain, it should be easy to cross. With it, you should be able to avoid many detours along the way..."

More than a lot.

Yiyong understood that with this thing, he could walk in a straight line regardless of the terrain.

"This thing should be very precious to you." Yiyong shook his head, "Fenghua Nutao has spent all the savings of this country. If you sell it to other countries' daimyo..."

"We can make it again. Besides, if the daimyo of other countries knew that this thing was used by people like Fenghua Nutao, how could they be willing to spend a lot of money to buy it. But for you, this thing is equivalent to a trophy, please don't refuse it."

The old man laughed: "When you fell asleep before, I sent someone to fill the cabin with spare fuel. If the fuel runs out in the future, you can come back to replenish it. Of course, we will charge you by then."

"Then I will accept it." Yiyong no longer hesitated.

The three countries of Snow, Stone and Bird are all plateaus and mountainous areas. If he can fly in a straight line, he may be able to save half the time.

"Finally, we have a favor to ask."

"Please go ahead."

"You said before that you are from the Land of Fire, so could you please help pass on a message..."

"What message, and to whom?"

"The producer of the film "The Adventures of Princess Wind and Cloud", his name is San Taifu, he is an old man about my age."

The old man pleaded earnestly: "Just tell him what happened here."

["The Adventures of Princess Wind and Cloud", isn't that Sasuke's favorite series of movies? 】

Giyuu is somewhat familiar with this name, not only because of Sasuke, but also because his mother Uchiha Mikoto became the special effects artist and action director of that crew after resigning from Konoha...

[It seems that the Land of Fire...]

"We have to go back no matter what."

At the same time, at the gate of the Hidden Rain Village, Fuzugawa Xuanya was ready to leave.

"Senior Shinobu, if we leave, then the missing hunter case of the Land of Fire..."

"When Kyojuro comes back, I will go there in person."

Shinobu Kocho looked at the gradually brightening sky in the east, "It just so happens that I have some books to buy, maybe I can refer to them when compiling textbooks."

The jet lag is not reversed, the brain is not right, and I don't want to know what I am writing on this day...
