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

Chapter 220 Rock Hidden Engineers
The Kirigakure ninjas did not occupy the camp. They just made a thorough search, destroyed everything that could be destroyed, ensured that Konoha could not rebuild it quickly, and then retreated.

Of course, he did not forget to put on the vest and forehead protector of the Konoha ninja and rob the powerful and wealthy businessmen in the surrounding areas.

War costs money. The funding from the daimyo government is limited. During the war, a large number of ninjas were on the front lines and could not do missions to earn money. They could only supplement their family income in this way.

However, they only target those wealthy and powerful people and have no interest in ordinary people, so they won't get any benefits by going there.

According to the agreement, all the special metals seized during the war, including chakra metals, belonged to the Cloud Ninja Team as a reward for their support in the war.

No one in the Kirigakure ninja said anything about this. After all, they were reinforcements and their lineup was so powerful. If it weren't for the reinforcements from the Kumogakure ninja, they wouldn't be able to win the battle, let alone fight.

Not to mention that they also tied up almost all the high-end combat forces on the Konoha front and temporarily disabled the Hyuga ninjas. It is reasonable for them to receive this reward.

After staying here for three days, the coalition forces of both sides withdrew to the Kingdom of Wave.

The following war was simple. The coalition forces of the two villages took the initiative to attack the powerful and wealthy merchants in the eastern part of the Land of Fire, and each time they put on Konoha ninja suits to rob them.

The Fire Country Daimyo strongly protested against this and even sent a letter to the Water Country Daimyo.

However, the Daimyo of the Land of Water ignored it. They all saw that the powerful people of the Land of Lightning had occupied the territories of the Land of Moon, the Land of Hot Springs, the Land of Rice, and part of the Land of Fire, and made a fortune.

They were also jealous of this, so they decided to use the Kirigakure Ninja to eliminate the wealthy and powerful merchants in that area so that they could occupy it later.

The Kirigakure Ninja can only take away the money, but the most important land and properties cannot be taken away. That is the big chunk and can create a continuous source of profit.

Jiraiya and others could only deal with it, but they were much more cautious. The Hyuga main family also agreed to the Hokage's decision to assist the branch ninjas in becoming independent. On the surface, there was no way to deal with it.

After all, so many branch family ninjas have released the Caged Bird Curse Seal, accounting for most of the Hyuga ninjas. The main family has no way of applying the Caged Bird Curse Seal to all of them again, so they can only choose to compromise.

However, Tamura Hao understood that Hinata Hiashi was waiting, waiting for the Samsara Eye to complete its evolution and transformation again.

"How slow!"

Two months later, seeing that there was still no movement from Hinata Hiashi, Tamura Hao couldn't help but sigh at the gap between people.

"Whether it's Otsutsuki Shari or Hyuga Hiashi, they are just ordinary descendants of Hamura. Their blood concentration is average. It's a miracle that they can awaken the Samsara Eye. If it weren't for the giant Samsara Eye and the power of the inner Hamura Eye, it would be impossible to complete the transformation."

The black man who came to deliver the information didn't think it was slow, and even thought it was very fast.

“They are indeed too ordinary.”

Tamura Hao agreed with this point. The reason why the future Otsutsuki Toneri was able to awaken the Samsara Eye so quickly was mainly because he was special enough.

He was born without eyes and is a special individual. He can be seen as the reincarnation of Indra Asura, so he was able to awaken the reincarnation eye so quickly.

Just like Uchiha Madara, as the reincarnation of Indra, was able to awaken the Eternal Eye and the Rinnegan, especially the awakening of the Rinnegan.

Without that foundation, it is impossible to awaken.

Compared with Ōtsutsuki Toneri, Ōtsutsuki Shari is not even a little bit inferior, let alone Hyuga Hiashi.

Although it has obtained the eye power and chakra of the Otsutsuki family, the amount is too small, so it naturally needs a longer time to undergo fetal movement and transformation.

"Senju Orange Water is pretty good. He can actually develop Wood Release to the level of a wooden figure, and it's a fairy wooden figure at that."

Turning to another piece of information, this one was not sent by Black Zetsu, but came from the village.

Senju Orange Water has openly used Wood Release and the Wooden Man Technique on the battlefield.

Although its size is slightly smaller than the wooden man used by Hashirama Senju, it is still strong enough with the blessing of fairy chakra and can still fight against the tailed beasts in hand-to-hand combat.

In addition to the Wood Release's ability to restrain the tailed beasts, he can easily suppress them. He is already able to catch the Tailed Beast Ball with one hand and press it back, which is extremely ferocious.

"He just got help from those beasts. Besides, the wooden man was very reluctant to use him. He was overdrawing his body and forcing it to work. If he uses it a few more times, he will die."

Hei Jue was disdainful. That was not achieved by his own ability, but with the help of the slugs in the Wet Bone Forest. External force has its limits and it is impossible to increase it any further.

As for the True Thousand Hands that Hashirama Senju used back then, that was just a swan song. Even if Hashirama Senju was resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation, he might not be able to use it again, and the resurrected body could not withstand such an explosion.

"Why is Sister Tsunade suddenly using a sword? It's the same giant sword that the first Hokage used when he was alive."

When asked about another thing, Tamura Hao was quite curious about it.

Only simple information came from the village, not detailed.

"It all started with the scythe you gave Hanzo. Tsunade was cut in half once, and then she used the big sword to deal with it.

You didn't see it, that petite figure swinging a huge sword that is taller than herself looks very powerful and violent, you have to be careful when the time comes."

Black Zetsu is quite fun to watch, the contrast is quite impactful.

"Sister Tsunade is very violent. Now that she has the great sword of Hashirama, she will definitely let herself go."

Tamura Hao could imagine the scene: Tsunade turned into a berserker, laughing wildly and swinging her sword wildly.

Moreover, Tsunade is indeed very suitable for using that kind of giant weapon. Although her strength and fists are very strong, they are still far inferior to the weapons.

During the Fourth World War against Uchiha Madara, he would not have been in such a mess if he had the greatsword of Hashirama in his hand.

"Otsutsuki Shari has been searching for the Outer Path Demon Statue. With the insight of the Samsara Eye, it is only a matter of time before he finds it. Do you think we should let him fight Uchiha Madara?"

Black Zetsu has been thinking about this for some time, and feels that letting Uchiha Madara fight with Ōtsutsuki Shari could force out the trump cards of both sides, and even lead to some arrangements of Hagoromo and Hamura.

"We should not worry about this. Let's see what the Six Paths Sage and Otsutsuki Hamura have to do."

Tamura Hao didn't want to get involved in this matter. Both the Otsutsuki relic and Uchiha Madara would be targeted by the Six Paths Sage brothers. If he lured the two of them into a duel, he would most likely be targeted by them.

Moreover, it would be difficult for them to gain any advantage in a duel between the two, so there was no need to take risks.

"That's right. Even if we don't do anything, we can see what Yuyi and the others have planned. There's a high chance that we won't find them."

Hei Zetsu agreed with this. If Hagoromo was really plotting against him and his mother, then he would definitely not let Uchiha Madara go against Otsutsuki Shari now.

In Uchiha Madara's current state, he is no match for Otsutsuki Shari. Even if he uses the Impure World Reincarnation, he will most likely lose. This will inevitably disrupt his obvious plans, and Hagoromo will definitely not allow it.

"Sister's spirituality is getting higher and higher. Maybe after she gets the power of the Samsara Eye, she will be able to truly awaken her wisdom."

Tamura Hao talked about the evolution of Princess Kaguya, and if she continues like this, she will definitely evolve into an independent individual.

"Then we need to let my sister out to get some fresh air. We can put her in the spiritual world."

Black Zetsu was very happy. The stronger this clone of his mother was, the stronger she would be when she returned to her original body in the future, surpassing her former peak.

"I'll keep watching them."

As his body sank into the ground, Black Zetsu became more motivated.

"It's still too weak."

Tamura Hao sighed. The real world is much more cruel than those novels and games. If things get too serious, the big boss will definitely come to the rescue early and wipe out everything.

There are three super strong people hidden in the Naruto world at this stage, the two brothers of the Six Paths Sage and Otsutsuki Isshiki, and Otsutsuki Kaguya can also be counted.

He is still too weak at this stage, and Kaguya-sama's training is not enough. Even if Kaguya Otsutsuki is placed in front of him, it is not easy to devour and fuse her. If he uses the golden finger, the consumption will definitely be not small.

So it needs to continue to develop.

"Swift Escape, it's almost there."

A chakra whirlwind condensed in the palm of his hand, and Tamura Hao was looking forward to it.

During this period of time, he was mainly practicing the changes in the properties of wind, in order to increase his movement speed in preparation for the integration of swift escape.

At the same time, the first bloodline limit developed by Thunder God's clone was Swift Release, which he used to familiarize himself with the bloodline of Swift Release.

This will not only allow you to integrate better, but also allow you to master the Swift Escape immediately after integrating it.

There is no way. Although the fusion eye technique can fuse bloodline limits and bloodline elimination, it has a certain degree of uncertainty. Even if the same nature of changes are used for fusion, the desired bloodline limit may not be obtained.

It is not just a choice of nature change, but also a question of priority. If the proportion of priority is different, the bloodline limit formed by the fusion will be different.

For example, Boiling Release. Mei Terumi's Boiling Release causes high-temperature burns, and when combined with Melting Release, it can also have a corrosive effect.

However, the boiling escape of the Five-Tails Jinchuriki is a high-temperature explosion. It is not a difference in the direction of development, but a difference in essence.

Mei Terumi's Boiling Release is mainly water-based and supplemented by fire-based attributes, so its burst is weak, but its range of effect is very wide.

The Five-Tails Jinchuriki's Boiling Release is just the opposite. It is mainly fire-attributed and supplemented by water-attributed, so the instantaneous burst is powerful and the impact will be stronger.

What he really wanted was a swift escape that increased his speed, not some other bloodline. In this regard, he could only familiarize himself with the essence of the swift escape bloodline and make fine adjustments before fusion. The more delicate the chakra adjustment, the more stable the direction of fusion would be.

However, what he is most looking forward to is the transformation brought about by the bloodline fusion, by which time his own chakra qualifications will surely be further improved.

In the ninja world, as long as one is a bloodline ninja, the amount of chakra is not different, at least it is stronger than that of ordinary ninjas.

The improvement of bloodline fusion is an improvement of the essence of blood, which is more meaningful than simply improving chakra.

There is no way. Ninja is a system that emphasizes bloodline, and bloodline itself determines the lower and upper limits of the future.

Even if he had a cheat code, it would be impossible to raise the upper limit too high. He would have to rely on blood fusion to improve the essence of his bloodline, so as to avoid it becoming an obstacle to breakthroughs in the future.

"come yet?"

While thinking, Tamura Hao suddenly turned his head and looked to the north, and sensed the chakra of yellow earth. It was obvious that the support team from the Iwagakure Village had arrived.

After standing up and tidying his clothes, Tian Cun Hao stepped out, called Ye Yue Ai and teacher Fu Kai, and went to the dock.

Karatachi Yagura and others have also gone there to greet the incoming Iwagakure team.

"There are quite a lot of people, probably around three thousand."

Looking at the figures standing on the ten large steel ships, Ye Yueai was very surprised.

When did the Third Tsuchikage become so courageous?
"It should be because they were stimulated by the wood escape technique displayed by the Senju clan."

Fukai had some guesses, and he also read the information sent from the village that the Senju clan had obtained and used Wood Release.

Wood Release has a special significance. Even if the opponent's Wood Release is far inferior to that of the first Hokage, he can still be invincible on the battlefield.

The Third Tsuchikage and the Hidden Rock Village would certainly be worried. He guessed that the Third Tsuchikage would most likely take this opportunity to invite the two Tailed Beast Jinchuriki from the Hidden Mist Village to come and help, and work together to kill the Thousand Hands elite to eliminate future troubles.

"The Iwagakure Village has always focused on the cultivation of ninjas. It has the largest number of ninja troops among the five major ninja villages. It is not difficult to mobilize 3,000 ninja troops."

Tamura Hao was not surprised that the Iwagakure Village could mobilize so many ninja troops, as that was one of their characteristics.

In the next three wars, tens of thousands of ninja soldiers surrounded and killed the Third Raikage, and the battle lasted for three days and three nights.

The five major ninja villages also have their own characteristics. Among them, Konoha is the most comprehensive, developing both in quantity and quality. It tries to grasp both with both hands and does it very well.

The Hidden Mist Village and the future Hidden Sand Village advocate an elite model, with the smallest number of ninja troops but many senior ninjas.

The Hidden Cloud Village also focuses on quantity and quality, but it is far behind Konoha.

"Yakura-kun, Ai-kun, Hao-kun, Fukai-kun!"

The team leaders Huang Tu and Zi walked off the boat, greeted everyone, and gave Ye Yue Ai a warm bear hug.

Back when they were in Konoha, they had a very good relationship. They had meals together, drank together, and admired each other.

"You've reached the Kage level too!"

Feeling Huang Tu's shadow-level chakra, Ye Yue Ai grinned.

"You all have made a breakthrough. If I don't hurry up, I won't be able to come out."

Speaking of this, Huang Tu smiled just as happily, but when he broke through, he shed tears of bitterness and was almost decomposed by his old man's Dust Escape.

Fortunately, I finally broke through.

"We have prepared a banquet for you all, please!"

After exchanging a few words with Tongcao Yebairen, Gouju Yakura invited everyone to the banquet with a smile on his face.

They had already received information from Tousou Yaeito and knew that three thousand Iwagakure ninjas would be coming this time. Although most of these people were not combat ninjas and were only Chunin, they were very good at earth-style ninjutsu and could use them for large-scale projects.

Everyone soon arrived at the banquet. The menu provided by Kirigakure was very generous. Although most of the dishes were local fish, they were cooked in many different ways and the portions were sufficient, which was very much in line with the appetites of the big-bellied men like Iwagakure.

After the meal, a group of senior executives, led by Karatachi Yagura, came to the combat meeting room. On the front wall hung a huge map, mainly of the Fire Country Peninsula.

"Our strategic senior Tongcao has already told you, so I won't waste words. We have asked professionals to survey the route of the river. It is generally a straight line with a total length of 700 kilometers.

Our Kirigakure's earth-style ninjas have already dug a secret river tunnel underground to facilitate the second phase of excavation.

The Konoha ninjas will be held off by us and our friends at the Cloud Ninja level. You just need to focus on using earth escape techniques to dig the river channel and you don't need to take part in the battle.

But you also need to be prepared. Konoha's Minato Namikaze possesses the Flying Thunder God Technique, a space-based ninjutsu that is difficult to defend against.

When you see him, you need to use earth escape to hide underground immediately. Don't fight him head-on. Anyone who has been touched by him needs to report it immediately. Hao Jun will be responsible for checking whether the person who has been touched has the Flying Thunder God spell left on him..."

Goju Yagura held his big iron hook and pointed at the map to explain it to Huangtu and his companions. He explained it in great detail and Huangtu and his companions were very satisfied.

The reason why three thousand ninja troops were sent over for support this time was because they were not to be deployed to the battlefield, but only to carry out the work of digging the river.

As long as you are careful and don't get ambushed by Konoha's strong men, there will be no danger.

The reward offered by the Hidden Mist Village was very generous, and they promised that when the decisive battle between the Hidden Mist Village and Konoha took place, Karutagi Yagura would go to support them.

Huangtu and Zi asked some detailed questions about the mission, and were very satisfied in the end. They also confirmed that the Hidden Mist Village was indeed sincere.

Moreover, there is really no need for the Hidden Mist Village to play any tricks in this regard. After all, the seized territory itself contains huge benefits, not to mention the island countries in the southern waters.

Once the peninsula area of ​​the Fire Country is cut off, the Water Country and the Hidden Mist Village will be able to control that large sea area and slowly attack and occupy it.

"We need to rest here for three days, and then we will set out by boat to reach our target location."

Looking at the map, Huangtu stated the requirement for rest and recuperation.

The people of their Land of Earth rarely go out to sea by boat, and the Iwagakure Village is at the center of the Land of Earth. This is also his first time to go out to sea by boat.

Taking a sea ship and taking a river ship are two completely different concepts. Many of the 3,000 ninjas suffered from seasickness and had to rest.

"We have made arrangements and will connect your ships to form a huge sea vessel, which will greatly reduce the shaking caused by the impact of waves."

Karujutsu Yagura nodded to show his understanding and offered a solution.

"That's good!"

Huang Tu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they didn't have that damn seasickness reaction, the ninjas of their Iwagakure Village would all be brave men.

"Can you tell me about Jiraiya?"

Zi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked. The main reason why he agreed to come for support was because of Jiraiya.

He had practiced Lava Release very well, and had further developed it with the help of the Four-Tails' chakra.

But he still couldn't figure out how to practice the magic, and still remained at the level of magic spells.

Ohnoki has already achieved something, and the power of his Dust Release has been greatly enhanced. I can't be slow.

"This is the detailed intelligence we collected."

Karutagi Yagura had expected that Yukari would ask this, and handed over a stack of information that he had prepared long ago, all about Jiraiya.

Zi took the stack of information and read it carefully, looking at it very seriously.

"Toryu-senpai said you have another use for the Tailed Beast Cannon."

Huangtu asked about another thing and was very curious about it.

Do the tailed beasts have any other killer moves besides the Tailed Beast Balls?

"I will use it when we get there, and you will understand after you see it."

Karatachi Yagura did not explain. It was just one of the uses of the Tailed Beast Ball and the Tailed Beast Transformation. It was difficult to explain in words and had to be experienced personally.

Moreover, only those who are also the Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beast can understand it. When the time comes, as long as it is used, Zi will definitely be able to learn it.

Looking up at Goji Yagura, Zi didn't ask any more questions and continued to look through the information in his hand.

Compared to the Tailed Beast Cannon, he is more interested in fairy techniques, which can also better improve his own strength.

Moreover, the Tailed Beast Cannon was something that the Hidden Mist Village had promised a long time ago. Since the other party said that it can be learned at the right place, it must be true, so there is no need to rush.
