Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swordsmen Begins from the Hidden Cloud Village.

Chapter 141 Killing the Toad
The next morning, after dealing with the matters of Sarutobi Hiruzen and others, Uzumaki Mito returned to the Senju clan's territory, and then received a report that the building where the books were stored had been looted, including the sealed book on the top floor had been stolen.

He went to the top floor to remove the barrier, picked up the letter, opened it and read it, with a kind smile on his face.

"The little guy has a good heart, but he's a little greedy."

The content of the letter was very simple. It was an invitation, and it could be considered as a way out for the Senju family, just like the Uzushiogakure Village back then.

However, this is not a bad thing for the current Senju family. The actions of Sarutobi Hiruzen and others this time made her see the problems of Konoha clearly. The Senju family is indeed very dangerous.

Although I don't think my clan will be exterminated as the letter says, it doesn't hurt to prepare a retreat route.

"Hashirama, did you ever think that the village would become like this?"

Crushing the letter with her chakra, Uzumaki Mito couldn't help but think of her deceased husband.

Hashirama has contributed a lot to the village and placed high hopes on it, but now the village has changed and is no longer the Konoha of the past.

……

Not to mention what was happening in Konoha, on the other side, Danzo Shimura, who was far away on the front line, received information from people here, and combined with the information from someone before, he basically figured out what was going on.

"Huruzen is still so naive sometimes."

After reading the information, Shimura Danzo sneered with disdain.

At the same time, he was pleased that the chess piece was so powerful that it actually took Uchiha Mikoto away. With the Third Raikage and so many Cloud Ninjas present, even the old guy Lieyang didn't dare to stop it.

In this way, the next plan can be carried out to ruin the reputation of Uchiha Fugaku, who is valued by the old man Lieyang. It would be even better if he could be stimulated to go crazy and do something.

As expected, the peace of Konoha still depends on me, Danzo Shimura, and Hiruzen can only try to smooth things over.

"The teacher really cares about that child."

Orochimaru was a little jealous. As expected, the teacher chose Minato Namikaze and went to such lengths for him.

Asking them to remove the shadow clones as soon as possible yesterday was probably in preparation for that plan. We didn't want them to stay in the village and be an eyesore.

Now it’s all over.

"The plan has to be put on hold for now."

Danzo Shimura was depressed about this. He had originally wanted to ask his old friend to cooperate in encircling and killing the Third Kazekage, but now it seems that the plan has been ruined.

"The teacher has more thoughts than any of us."

A cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Orochimaru really wanted to see the teacher's face now, which must be very ugly.

"That idiot is going to be in trouble."

He immediately thought of another piece of information he had obtained last night, that Jiraiya had been sent out of the village yesterday afternoon and his whereabouts were unknown.

I didn’t understand what was going on at the time, but now it seems that it was a preparation for this plan.

Orochimaru's guess was correct, and that afternoon Jiraiya confronted Tamura Hao and others.

"Kid, why are there so many ninjas from your Hidden Cloud Village here?"

Jiraiya showed up and stopped everyone, confused as to why so many Cloud Ninjas appeared.

The old man just asked him to come here to meet Minato, but didn't tell him the specific details. Now that so many Cloud Ninjas have appeared, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

"There's nothing much to say between us now. You'd better get out of the way, or you'll die."

Tian Cunhao, who was standing next to Ye Yueai, said this with a very cold expression, showing strong hostility.

The surrounding Cloud Ninjas also drew their kunai swords, ready to start a fight.

They could all see that Jiraiya's appearance here was no accident, it must have been arranged by the Third Hokage.

"If I don't make it clear, none of you can leave."

Jiraiya's stubborn temper came up, but he did not give in. He bit his finger immediately and used summoning technique to summon his strongest contracted toad Bunta.

"Kumo-nin? Jiraiya, you've arrived at the Kumo-nin battlefield? Didn't you say that the Uchiha were in charge there?"

Bunta looked at the one hundred or so Cloud Ninjas in front of him in confusion. Jiraiya had told him about the current situation of the Ninja World War, and that the Cloud Ninjas were blocked in the Land of Hot Springs.

Moreover, the Uchiha were in charge of that place, and Jiraiya didn't seem to have a good relationship with the Uchiha.

"Boss Wen, now is not the time to explain. Help me take them down."

Jiraiya had no way to explain it, because he couldn't understand why hundreds of Cloud Ninjas appeared in the heart of the Land of Fire, and they all looked unfriendly.

Capture those people first, and then interrogate them slowly.

When they saw Gamabunta appear, Yeyue Ai and the others' eyes lit up.

They have long been coveting Tian Cun Hao's magic spells and the combination with the Seven Days Breathing Method. If they could have a big heart to store blood, they would not only be able to maintain the use of the Seven Days Breathing Method, but also would not be afraid of bleeding if they were injured in the future.

That amount of blood is enough to keep flowing for a long time and save your life.

"One isn't enough."

Tamura Hao was also very greedy, but one Gamabunta was not enough for him to share.

"Is this the most suitable medium for my immortal arts that you mentioned?"

The Third Raikage, who was performing a transformation jutsu to become an ordinary Cloud Ninja, was staring at the giant toad. On his way, he listened to the boy explain in detail the secrets of the fairy seal.

The best medium is the heart, so it can be used in conjunction with the seven-day breathing method.

He didn't think much of the seven-day breathing method, but using it to store blood was a good idea.

"No, this giant toad is called Bunta. According to the information, he has used water-attribute ninjutsu. According to the information, Jiraiya can summon two giant toads, one of which has used wind ninjutsu and the other has used earth ninjutsu. The earth ninjutsu must be very suitable for you.

You have three attributes: thunder, earth, and fire, which can be matched with earth attribute chakra. This Wenta is more suitable to be a medium for Brother Ai's magic."

Tamura Hao had previously analyzed the Third Raikage and concluded that the toads of Myoboku Mountain were the most suitable medium for this.

"Yuye, cooperate with me to take down this beast."

The Third Raikage didn't say much. He signaled to Uzumaki Tamae and rushed towards Gamabunta.

"This chakra!"

Feeling the chakra burst from the Third Raikage, Jiraiya and Bunta both realized something was wrong, but before they could react, Gamabunta's huge body was knocked to the ground, his chin suffered a heavy blow, and the powerful black lightning paralyzed his entire body.

Following closely, Uzumaki Tamaba raised her hand and quickly formed seals, and finally slapped Bunta's head hard, sealing his contractual connection with Myoboku Mountain, making it impossible for him to be summoned back.

This is not over yet. Yeyue Ai and Fukai swung their swords to kill Jiraiya, and dozens of Cloud Ninjas also burst out their chakra to kill him.

"They're all jonin!"

Jiraiya's face turned green when he saw the chakra and speed bursts from those Cloud Ninjas.

He decisively used his spiritual power again to summon a toad, then crawled into its mouth, preparing to escape from here with the help of spiritual power.

Not to mention the dozens of senior ninjas, just the powerful Cloud Ninja who had defeated Bunta before was not someone he could deal with. His chakra gave him a strong sense of oppression, even stronger than that of the old man.

You can't defeat him, you have to run away quickly.

But he didn't run fast enough, and Yeyueai chopped off one of his legs with his knife.

Tamura Hao quickly stepped forward, picked up the leg, sealed it into a sealed space, and let the Ten-Tails devour it. He then used the blood flowing from the leg to quickly form hand seals, mobilizing Jiraiya's chakra that had been devoured to perform summoning techniques.

A huge mist exploded, and a giant toad with two swords on its back appeared. However, before it could react to what was happening, it was knocked down and paralyzed by the Third Raikage again, followed by the contract seal of Uzumaki Tamae.

Tamura Hao once again used Jiraiya's chakra to perform the summoning technique, summoning an equally huge toad, which was holding a wolf-tooth fork in its hand and carrying a huge shield on its back.

It was the same result. The Third Raikage personally took action to knock him down and paralyzed him, not giving him a chance to cancel his summoning and leave.

After a series of improvements, he no longer took this huge spiritual beast seriously.

Moreover, they had always fought hand-to-hand with the Eight-Tails in the past. These three toads are much inferior to the Eight-Tails.

Tiancun Hao used the spiritual technique again, but found that there was no response.

"Did you find it?"

He stopped with regret, realizing that it must be the two immortals from Mount Myōboku who responded.

But these three big toads are enough.

"Deal with it as soon as possible. It's not a good idea to stay here for long."

Seeing that he could no longer summon spirits, the Third Raikage turned around and looked in the direction of Konoha, feeling fearful.

When he faced him again, he realized how terrifying his power was, and that he was definitely not someone he could contend with.

Without further ado, Tamura Hao released the chakra in the Yang Seal to activate the seal on his abdomen, taking in all three giant toads, making the sealed space crowded.

The little Juubi was extremely satisfied with the feast that was delivered to his doorstep, and he excitedly waved his long tail and pierced into the bodies of the three to devour them frantically, even opening his mouth wide to swallow them.

"Ten-Tails!"

The paralyzed Gamabunta was horrified when he saw the image of the little Ten-Tails. How could the legendary Ten-Tails be here?

Wasn’t this monster sealed by the Six Paths Sage?
Before he could figure it out, Kaguya-hime, who was standing on the Ten-Tails, looked over. The Sharingan between her eyebrows slowly rotated, and she used the Tsukuyomi eye technique to control the three of them.

Tamura Hao's separate consciousness came in and used Kaguya's Moon Reading Technique to spy on the memories of the three people, in order to understand the secrets of Myoboku Mountain.

The most mysterious of the three holy places is Mount Myoboku, not only because the Big Toad Sage once accompanied the Six Paths Sage, but also because he possesses a means similar to precognition.

Although in Tamura Hao's opinion that kind of foresight was more like a deliberate guidance, it was enough to prove that there was something wrong with the Great Toad Sage.

Whether it was true precognition or something else, it must be focused on.

After completing the spying on the memories of the three giant toads, Tian Cun Hao felt a strong sense of malice. When he turned his head, the first thing that caught his eye was a pair of scarlet eyes.

"Ms. Mikoto!"

Showing his signature gentle smile, Tamura Hao walked over and prepared to have a conversation.

"What did you tell my father?"

Suppressing the anger in her heart, Uchiha Mikoto asked hatefully.

She had felt that her father was a little weird before, but she didn't think much about it. But now that something like this had happened, there was obviously something wrong, and the root of the problem must be this despicable bastard in front of her.

"I didn't say much, I just told my father about our situation, and then he agreed to let us elope."

The gentle smile remained, but it made Uchiha Mikoto furious.

"Who's going to run away with you, you despicable bastard? And, that's my dad, not yours!"

I was so angry that my three-magatama Sharingan's rotation speed increased by one second. How could this bastard be so despicable and shameless. "Forget about it. I will never go to the Hidden Cloud Village with you."

Uchiha Mikoto's attitude was very firm. As she spoke, she took out a kunai and prepared to end her life.

"It's better for Miss Mikoto to be alive, otherwise those photos will be copied countless times and spread throughout the ninja world, especially Konoha. Then Fugaku-kun will definitely become the laughing stock of the entire village and the entire ninja world, carrying the shame for the rest of his life and being pointed at by others. I don't know if such a big stimulus can make Fugaku-kun open the Mangekyo?"

Tamura Hao's words of persuasion were so gentle, but Uchiha Mikoto's chest rose and fell violently, and the three magatama in her eyes rotated even faster.

If looks could kill, someone would definitely turn into a pair of fishnet stockings.

"Despicable! Shameless!"

Cursing angrily, Uchiha Mikoto really wanted to chop this hateful bastard into pieces, cook him into a dish, and then eat him bite by bite.

Everyone watching this scene had their eyelids twitching and their expressions all looked weird. Uchiha Hikaru and Uzumaki Kushina even gave him contemptuous looks.

This bad guy only knows how to bully girls!
The crowd did not stay long. After cleaning up the scene, they continued to move forward quickly.

After all, this is the Land of Fire, and Konoha has a super strong man in charge, so it is better to return as soon as possible.

Shortly after everyone left, a team of people came quickly from Konoha, led by Tsunade.

"That idiot really tried to stop it."

Looking at the traces of battle around her, especially the fallen trees, Tsunade understood what was going on.

Grandma talked with the teacher and others all night last night. In the morning, she learned from the teacher that Jiraiya had been arranged here. Realizing that something was wrong, she hurried here.

But it was too late. A conflict broke out between the two sides and no one knew what happened to the idiot.

"Lady Tsunade, there are words on this tree."

An ANBU ninja who was checking the scene suddenly shouted and Tsunade hurried over.

"Fortunately, the Third Raikage showed mercy."

After reading the words on the tree, Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief.

This was left behind by the Cloud Ninja, which said that Jiraiya escaped with the help of summoning techniques and did not die here.

As long as people are still alive.

"Keep moving forward. We can't let anyone else get into conflict with the Kumo-nin again."

Tsunade ordered and everyone continued to move forward.

The journey after that went very smoothly, and they soon arrived at the Land of Hot Springs. With Tsunade coming forward to negotiate, and with the Uchiha's good impression of the Cloud Ninja, the Konoha Ninja Army stationed there decisively made way.

Only when they returned to the Hidden Cloud Village did everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Tamura Hao did not go home immediately, but went to the training room belonging to the Raikage under the Raikage Building, the one where he experimented with the musket.

Letting the others wait outside first, Tamura Hao went inside to talk with the Third Raikage. This was Tamura Hao's special request.

"There are only two of us here, just tell me what you want to say."

The Third Raikage said with amusement that this kid was still keeping him in suspense.

Tamura Hao looked around and made sure that there was no problem around before he used Kaguya's Tsukuyomi to create an illusion space and pull the Third Raikage's consciousness in.

"Is this the Kaleidoscope's pupil technique?"

Looking around curiously, the Third Raikage knew that this kid had swallowed up the girl's Mangekyō pupil technique, which should be the one that the girl used at the beginning.

"This eye technique is called Tsukuyomi."

"You can talk now."

The Third Raikage's expression became serious, realizing that what this disciple was about to say must be something very important, otherwise he would not be so cautious.

Tamura Hao's expression was also very serious, and he said seriously: "According to the legends of the ninja world and some records of the Uzumaki clan, the origin of chakra is the Six Paths Sage, who passed his own chakra to others and founded the Ninja Sect, which then evolved into today's ninja.

I once had a question: where does the ninja's chakra go after it uses chakra to release ninjutsu?

After gaining the power of the Sharingan and Byakugan, I discovered that the chakra of those ninjutsu disappeared without a trace, rather than dissipating, just like the chakra of the shadow clone disappears without a trace and returns to the original body."

Hearing this, the Third Raikage's expression became more solemn, and he had more guesses in his mind.

"Are you trying to say that the Sage of Six Paths is not dead?"

Tamura Hao shook his head slightly and continued, "I don't know, but the problem with chakra is huge. Last year, I accidentally obtained a special treasure in the Land of Iron, which can purify chakra after being swallowed by Samehada.

After purification, the chakra control is much stronger, and it will no longer disappear out of thin air after being released into ninjutsu. Instead, it will be eroded and decomposed by the natural energy of the outside world and become part of the natural energy.

Combined with a pupil technique obtained from Guang, the part of chakra that is released and cannot be retracted can be transferred into Samehada's body through air.

This pure chakra is also the important foundation of my current strength. Next, I need to use the simulated toad chakra I devoured to help you shape the fairy spell, which will inevitably blend with your chakra.

I am worried that your chakra will detect abnormalities in my chakra, and then be known to some existence."

"You're going to purify my chakra first, and then use that eye technique to keep it a secret?"

The Third Raikage understood, and without waiting for Tamura Hao to speak, he said, "Come on then."

Although this kid's identity is a bit questionable, his contribution to the village in the past two years is unquestionable and he can be absolutely trusted.

"Yes, Mr. Sandai."

Tamura Hao was deeply moved by this trust. He immediately unleashed the Tsukuyomi eye technique, raised his hand and pressed it on the shoulder of the Third Raikage, imprinting the mark of the Eight Thousand Spears there.

The chakra in the Third Raikage's body was forcibly extracted through the Eight Thousand Spears Seal, allowing the Ten-Tails to devour and purify it, while the Third Raikage refined the chakra to assist in the extraction.

When the chakra was almost exhausted, Tamura Hao further extracted the chakra origin of the Third Raikage, which was imprinted in his blood.

At this moment, something seemed to be triggered, and the original chakra took the initiative to fight back.

This abnormality was immediately noticed by the Third Raikage, and his eyes turned cold and fierce.

There is indeed a problem!

The resistance did not last long as it was swallowed and purified by the Ten-Tails. Then Tamura Hao passed the purified chakra, leaving only the mark of Kaguya, back into the body of the Third Raikage.

“It’s improved so much.”

Feeling the new chakra, the Third Raikage was very surprised.

Although I had heard this disciple say before that his control would improve, I didn’t expect the improvement to be so great.

Although improving chakra control cannot directly improve strength, it has huge benefits in other aspects.

"It feels good to have perfect control over chakra."

Tamura Hao smiled and said that this kind of chakra is the real chakra.

"No wonder you can master so many secret techniques, even indirectly know the Flying Thunder God."

The Third Raikage understood why this kid was able to progress so quickly and master those difficult secret techniques.

"Purify Ai and the others later."

He could understand the boy's concerns about telling the secret now. This matter really required his approval first, otherwise it would easily lead to misunderstandings.

This kid is thoughtful!

"At present, we can only purify a small area, so as not to attract the attention of the other party. We are still too weak."

Tamura Hao was very wary of this and didn't want to be targeted by the Six Paths Sage too early.

"The waters of the ninja world are too deep."

The Third Raikage sighed that the waters in the ninja world were indeed terrifyingly deep.

First there was the mysterious force that was eyeing high-tech research and development, then there was the Otsutsuki clan on the moon, and now there is the Six Paths Sage who may not be dead.

We don’t know how many unimaginable things will appear in the future, there are too many pitfalls.

Compared to these existences, their five major ninja villages are a joke.

"There's something wrong with the three holy places too. The contractors chosen this generation are all disciples of the Hokage of Konoha. I feel like something bad is going to happen."

Thinking of the three giant toads that had been captured before, the Third Raikage could tell with his toes that there was something wrong with the three holy places.

"Perhaps there is a connection between the three holy places and Konoha that we are not aware of."

Tamura Hao provided a clue at the right time, indicating that the root of the problem should be on Konoha's side.

"Perhaps the appearance of invincible strong men like the First Hokage and Uchiha Madara is not accidental."

The Third Raikage thought of the two invincible strongmen. They were the biggest anomaly in Konoha. Their strength exceeded the limits of the concept of ninja and there was no logic at all.

Furthermore, the first Hokage's strongest power seems to be fairy arts, and fairy arts must come from the three holy places. Tsunade has a contract with the Wet Bone Forest, one of the three holy places.

"What's up with that Uchiha girl you brought back?"

The Third Raikage suddenly asked, and he always felt something was wrong.

Judging from the girl's words and the boy's actions, the relationship between the two is a bit complicated.

"It was an order from Lord Danzo. He wanted to use this to destroy the inheritance of the Uchiha family's patriarch, so he asked me to take Miss Mikoto away."

Tamura Hao explained it simply, but the Third Raikage could tell that it contained a great deal of information.

"Tell me carefully."

Tamura Hao did not hide anything and told everything he had done after arriving in Konoha. The Third Raikage's face twitched when he heard it.

"What the village has gained from fighting Konoha in the past two years is not as good as your eloquence."

Finally, I sighed that this was the first time I saw someone who could speak so eloquently to such an extent.

According to this kid's arrangement, Konoha will never have peace.

Uchiha Fugaku alone is enough to turn Konoha upside down. After this Ninja World War, Konoha may be in chaos and blood will flow like a river.

"I am still far behind Master Tutai."

Tamura Hao was humble out of habit. Lord Tsuchida was the wisest man of the present time in the Hidden Cloud Village and he planned all the strategies. I, Tamura Hao, was just a small executor.

"I always feel like you put the same trap on Dodai as you did on Shimura Danzo."

The Third Raikage had a strange expression on his face, and he couldn't help but think of Danzo Shimura. This kid also called him "Sir Danzo" all the time.
