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

With Uzumaki Vanilla's powerful perception ability, the group easily bypassed the Grass Ninjas one by one, and at noon the next day, they crossed the border of the Land of Grass and arrived at the Land of Earth.

Without stopping, he passed through the Land of Earth, circled the border of the Land of Rain and entered the Land of Birds before stopping to rest.

The Kingdom of Birds is located to the west of the Kingdom of Rain. Because many migratory birds stop here when migrating from north to south, it is called the Kingdom of Birds. Even the name of the country is mostly named after various birds.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief only after entering the Land of Birds. Although they had put on the attire of the Iwagakure ninja in advance and had the Kagura mind's eye perception of Vanilla Uzumaki, they had avoided all ninjas, but that was the Land of Earth after all, the territory of the Iwagakure Village, one of the five major ninja villages. Once discovered, it would be difficult to escape.

After finding a stream in the forest and taking a quick bath, the men gathered together to discuss their next move.

"According to the intelligence from the village, the son of the Tsuchikage should be in charge of the Bear Country. The Bird Country is too close to the Rain Country, and the Hidden Rock Village is also very afraid of the demigod. The son of the Tsuchikage has a special status, so it is impossible for him to come to the Bird Country. That would only irritate the demigod."

Nara Shikaku carved a map on the ground with a kunai and gave his analysis.

There were some intelligence records in the previous mission scroll, with the help of which he made some analysis.

"That means we have to sneak into the Bear Country next."

Tamura Hao's gaze fell on the Bear Country. This was exactly what he wanted.

"We just need to confirm whether the Sand Village and the Rock Village have an alliance to complete the mission."

Nara Shikaku had no intention of confronting the ninjas from the Sand Village and the Iwagakure Village head-on. They only needed to determine whether the two sides were enemies or friends now. It would be even better if they could find out why the incident happened in the Sand Village.

"Rest for three days first, and recover before we enter the Bear Country."

Next, you will most likely encounter ninjas from the Sand Village or the Iwagakure Village. Once your identity is discovered, you can only escape as soon as possible, so you must recover your condition.

While the five people were discussing here, Shizune and Vanilla Uzumaki were taking a bath in a stream not far away. Looking at Vanilla Uzumaki's teeth marks and scars almost all over her body, Shizune felt a little numb. She really couldn't imagine what this big sister had experienced in the Kusagakure Village.

"Ugly, isn't it?"

Noticing Shizune's gaze, Uzumaki Vanilla was disgusted by the teeth marks and scars on her body, which represented her hellish past.

Over the years in the Kusagakure Village, she had experienced despair and collapse, but she finally managed to survive and was finally rescued, and even learned news about her clan members.

She wanted to forget that past experience completely.

"Tsunade-sensei will definitely heal you and erase all of this."

Shizune made the promise while wiping his back with a towel.

Teacher Tsunade will definitely be able to cure this big sister.

"Konoha!"

When she read that name, Uzumaki Vanilla felt more expectant.

After that, the few of them rested in the woods for three days and then set out again for the Bear Country. With the help of Uzumaki Vanilla's Heart Eye, Kagura avoided the ninjas one by one and the journey was very smooth.

However, after using the rope to cross the miasma-filled canyon and entering the territory of the Bear Country, they encountered more Sand Ninjas and Rock Ninjas. Occasionally, they could also see ninjas from the Star Ninja Village wearing forehead protectors with star patterns.

Tamura Hao carefully observed the Star Ninja Village ninjas, and at the same time used a telescope to observe the surroundings, looking for an opportunity to guide out the existence of the Star Ninja Village and the star.

After observing like this for four days, he finally got his chance.

"What are you looking at?"

Seeing her boyfriend standing there looking through the telescope for a long time, Shizune asked in confusion.

"Look at that bird over there, it looks like a person."

Tamura Hao handed the telescope to Shizune, and then shouted to Nara Shikaku and the other two who were resting not far away.

"Come and take a look."

Hearing the sound, the three of them hurried over, took out the telescopes they carried with them, looked in the direction pointed by Tian Cun Hao, and soon saw the abnormal point.

"There's a person inside, he seems to be using some kind of secret technique, and judging by his clothes he doesn't look like he's from the Sand Village or the Iwagakure Village."

Yamanaka Haiyi, who had the best eyesight, saw that it was not a flying bird, but was surrounded by lavender energy wings and a person in the middle.

"That was a chakra. A very strange chakra. It's different from anything I've encountered before."

Uzumaki Vanilla also came over to look at that direction, and after sensing it, she determined that it was a chakra source, but that kind of chakra was very strange.

"There are only three ninjas in the Bear Country at present: Sand Ninjas, Rock Ninjas, and Star Ninjas. The Demon Country in the west and the Bird Country in the east do not have their own ninja villages. It is most likely that they belong to the Star Ninja Village, and the direction the other party is flying is the direction of the Star Ninja Village."

Nara Shikaku gave his analysis and guessed that it was most likely a ninja from the Star Ninja Village. Using the advantage of flying to conduct reconnaissance, they were able to avoid the Sand Ninja and the Rock Ninja very well.

"Brother Ding Zuo, do you think that secret technique can be integrated with our Butterfly Transformation Secret Technique?"

Hearing this, Tiancun Hao took the opportunity to talk about the secret art of transforming into a butterfly.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Daoding was stunned for a moment, then he picked up the telescope again and carefully watched the quickly receding figure.

"Shikaku, Haiyi, help me."

After looking for a while, Qiu Daodingzuo said excitedly.

This is very similar to their secret technique of turning into a butterfly, both of which can materialize chakra outside the body. The wings formed by their secret technique of turning into a butterfly can also fly.

However, only those with perfect control can fly, and currently only Uncle Qufeng can do it in the family.

"It's not easy to go to the Star Ninja Village now."

Nara Shikaku frowned and thought, there were too many Sand Village and Iwagakure ninjas here, and the ninjas from the Star Village were also patrolling everywhere. Even with Vanilla's super perception ability, it would be difficult to avoid them all.

Once discovered by the ninjas from the Iwagakure and Sand Villages, they will definitely hunt you down with all their might.

Moreover, they also have sensory ninjas over there, which makes it even more difficult to sneak in.

"You don't have to sneak in. I can go there alone."

Yamanaka Haiyi suddenly spoke, with a look of confidence on his face.

He certainly couldn't have done it before, but things are different now.

"Brother Haiyi, have you mastered the art of spiritual transformation?"

Jingyin looked over in shock, she was extremely familiar with the art of spiritualization and knew the effect of practicing it. From what Brother Haiyi said, it must be that he had mastered the art of spiritualization.

"I have learned the basics, but my chakra can only support the spirit transformation technique for ten minutes. I need to get ten kilometers closer to the Star Ninja Village."

Nodding, Yamanaka Haiyi has indeed mastered the initial stage of the spiritualization technique. The reason why he was able to master it so quickly is mainly because the spiritualization technique is too compatible with the spiritual secrets of their Yamanaka family. It is no exaggeration to say that they are passed down from the same lineage.

With the family secret technique as the foundation, it was successfully accomplished.

Of course, he had only mastered the most basic part of the spiritualization technique, which allowed him to project his soul and control other people's bodies, just like the mind-turning technique. Other uses still needed to be slowly figured out.

"Ten kilometers is not a problem."

Nara Shikaku thought for a moment and nodded, indicating that he was ready to do it.

The Akimichi family is the main fighting force of the Ino, Deer and Chou clans. The strength of the Akimichi family can drive the improvement of the overall strength of the three clans.

Now that there is a secret technique that can potentially improve the Akimichi secret technique, naturally we have to find a way to obtain it.

“Xiao Hao, you continue to stay here and watch our flares. If we are discovered, you will flee immediately and ignore us. Finally, we will meet up at the place where we rested in Bird Country.

With the strength of the three of us, we can escape as long as we are not surrounded."

He turned around and reminded Tian Cun Hao and the other three that only three of them could go through this process, and even if they were discovered, they could run away as quickly as possible.

"clear."

Tamura Hao nodded. He certainly wouldn't be so stupid as to try to show off his strength. Moreover, their strength was indeed much worse than that of Nara Shikaku and his two companions. If they went there together, they would only become a burden and would do harm.

After making the arrangements, the Ino-Shika-Chou trio set out, using Yamanaka Inoichi's perception ability to avoid the Sand and Rock Ninjas as much as possible, and finally arrived at a location about ten kilometers away from the Star Ninja Village.

He sensed around first, and after making sure that there was no one around, he nodded to his two teammates, then raised his hands, formed seals, and performed the spiritualization technique.

Soon, a spirit invisible to ordinary people floated out from the body. It was the soul of Yamanaka Haiyi.

"It's true that it's not comparable to the family secret technique."

After feeling this spiritual state, Yamanaka Inoichi suppressed his excitement and flew towards the Star Ninja Village, which was also the place where the figure had landed before.

They soon arrived at the Star Ninja Village and used the secret technique of perception. They soon sensed several special chakras and a huge source of energy.

"Is that there?"

Looking towards the direction of the energy source, Shanzhong Haiyi immediately flew over and saw a big pit with a wooden building in the pit. The strange energy source was inside.

He floated through the wooden house and his eyes immediately fell on a strange stone on the altar in the center of the house. It was emitting a purple energy halo. There were several children practicing around it, using chakra to absorb and fuse the energy on the stone.

"Is that the source of their secret techniques?" Seeing that scene, Yamanaka Haiyi immediately guessed that the stone was the key.

Without delay, he sneaked into the body of the girl with the strongest chakra, explored her memory for further confirmation, and searched for that secret technique.

After adapting himself for a while, he decisively controlled the girl to release the purple chakra to form wings, then rushed forward, grabbed the stone and flew out of the wooden house.

This sudden change left several children who were practicing confused. One of the boys reacted and chased after him immediately.

"Summer!"

Looking at the girl flying away quickly, the boy was puzzled and anxious.

Why did Xia Ri take away the village’s treasure and practice the Peacock Magic to the point where he could fly?

Because it was night, the ninjas in the Star Ninja Village did not notice that their treasure had been stolen. The forbidden area was still some distance away from the village. By the time the ninjas guarding there went back to report, Yamanaka Hai had already controlled the girl to fly away, and they didn't know where to chase her even if they wanted to.

"Got it, retreat quickly."

Controlling the girl to fly back to his body, Yamanaka Haiyi's soul returned to his body, and he signaled with a pale face to retreat as soon as possible.

After all, the time for cultivation is too short, and he himself has not yet reached the level of Shadow. It is too difficult to use it and it consumes a lot of energy.

Without any hesitation, Akimichi Choza carried Yamanaka Inoichi and the unconscious girl on his shoulders and ran back, with Nara Shikaku following closely behind.

Yamanaka Inoichi swallowed a few secret medicines into his mouth, suppressed the headache, and used the secret perception technique to assist in retreat, trying to avoid those ninjas.

If they really can't avoid it, they will fight. As long as the opponent is not a Kage-level strongman, they can rush forward, but this will inevitably expose their whereabouts and attract more Sand Ninja and Rock Ninja to chase and intercept them.

The three of them held their breath. As long as they rushed to the other side of the canyon, they could use the miasma there to temporarily block the pursuers, and thus they could escape.

Just as they were about to rush forward, a figure quickly flew over and landed in front of them and stopped the three people.

"Son of the Tsuchikage!"

After looking at the other person's figure and appearance, as well as the oppressive feeling brought by the chakra, Nara Shikaku quickly determined the other person's identity.

This is the person they least want to face this time, and at such a critical moment.

"The Secret Technique of Shadows! So it's Ino-Shika-cho from Konoha. What do you want to do by dressing up as one of our Iwagakure ninjas?"

Huang Tu recognized the secret shadow technique and guessed the other party's identity.

This is someone from Konoha!

"Boss Ding, we have to fight!"

Nara Shikaku looked back at the two ninjas that were about to chase him and knew he had to fight.

Qiu Daodingzuo didn't say much. He took out a small red pill, crushed half of it and swallowed it, then raised his hand to make a seal and perform the secret technique of turning into a butterfly.

The many exchanges with Xiao Hao these days have allowed him to gain a deeper understanding of the secret art of transforming into a butterfly. Combined with some secret techniques and cultivation insights he gained from the Qianshou Family, he now only needs half of the complete dose of medicine to perform the secret art of transforming into a butterfly, and the side effects will be further reduced.

As the secret technique of transforming into a butterfly was performed, the Yang Release Chakra in Akimichi Choza's body became activated. Although he failed to condense butterfly wings, his strength was significantly improved.

"The art of super doubling!"

He raised his hand and formed a seal, and his body expanded rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a giant thirty meters tall. He took out a sealed scroll and opened it to reveal an iron rod as big as a pillar.

"Earth Release: Gangli Style Technique!"

Huang Tu was not afraid at all. He raised his hand, formed a seal and cast a spell. Soon a hideous rock monster crawled out from the ground. It was even ten meters taller than Qiu Dao Ding Zuo after it was super-multiplied, reaching an astonishing forty meters.

Huang Tu stood on top of the rock monster, looking down at Qiu Dao Ding Zuo who was rushing towards him, and controlled the rock monster to swing and punch.

Qiu Daodingzu also swung the iron rod like a pillar and smashed it out with great force, without any reservation.

"when!"

The stone fist and the iron rod collided with each other, causing ripples in the surrounding air.

"Earth Release·Super Heavy Rock Technique!"

Huang Tu formed seals again and cast the Super Light and Heavy Rock Technique on the rock monster, which not only increased the weight to stabilize its body, but also increased the power of its punches.

The reason why he spent chakra to shape the rock monster to be ten meters taller than the opponent was so that he could smash it from top to bottom, so that he could better use gravity to increase the power of his punch.

This attack really caused Akimichi Chouzo to suffer a loss, and he took a step back after being hit.

"Zuo Ding, that rock monster is not as flexible as you."

Nara Shikaku, who had been watching, used Yamanaka Inoichi's spiritual secret technique to contact and remind him. Akimichi Choza understood and stopped confronting the rock monster head-on. Instead, he used his speed and flexibility to fight with his stick.

Huang Tu didn't care about this. He just needed to stop them and wait for the ninjas from the same village to come and capture them.

That's right, he wanted to capture the other party so that he could maximize his benefits.

Nara Shikaku quickly saw through Huang Tu's intention, and looked back at the ninjas from the two villages who were getting closer and closer, and he couldn't help feeling anxious.

If they were really caught up by those people, they would be finished, but the loess was an obstacle they could not get around, because the other party could fly, and they could not escape unless they dealt with them.

Just at this moment, a huge figure rushed out from the canyon shrouded in miasma at the back, and leaped towards the yellow earth above the rock monster's head.

"There's someone else!"

Huang Tu frowned and used the Super Light and Heavy Rock Technique to fly up and avoid it.

However, a figure suddenly jumped up from the huge figure and kicked the yellow earth with a spiral kick.

The distance was too close and the explosion was too sudden, so Huang Tu had no time to react.

Although he used chakra to strengthen his body and was not injured, he was kicked from the air to the ground.

"caught you!"

A shadow connected to the shadow of the loess. It was Nara Shikaku who found the opportunity and used a secret technique to freeze the loess.

Although the opponent could not be completely immobilized due to the chakra difference between the two sides, it was enough to prevent it from escaping and performing complex techniques.

At the same time, the huge figure who was attacking took out an axe and a shield from the sealing scroll before it landed, both of which were extremely huge.

That’s right, the ones who came to rescue were Tamura Hao and Might Guy, and both of them even opened the fourth gate of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu.

"Dance of Qianqi!"

After landing, Tiancun Hao immediately rotated his axe and shield rapidly, and tilted his body to smash the yellow earth that was kicked to the ground.

"Earth escape technique: Hardening technique!"

Huang Tu could only release chakra to perform hardening technique, and his entire body turned black.

"Dangdangdang..."

The giant axe and shield hit Huangtu one after another. The huge force was so strenuous and painful even in Huangtu's hardened state.

What surprised him the most was that he could clearly feel that the opponent's attack speed and strength were still increasing. If this continued, he would definitely be smashed to death.

The Ganqi Dance used by Tamura Hao this time is more powerful than the one he used against Tsunade last time. Not only does it open the first four gates of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu, but it also greatly improves the use of supernatural powers.

Coupled with his deeper understanding of the secret art of transforming into a butterfly, his burst of power is even more terrifying.

Of course, the most exaggerated part of the current offensive is the giant axe and shield that weigh tons, which are extremely advantageous to swing.

On the other side, a rock monster controlled by the remaining yellow earth chakra wanted to come to the rescue, but was stopped by Akimichi Choza.

After hitting Huang Tu continuously for nearly a minute, Tian Cun Hao finally broke the hardening technique on his body, and at the same time both of his arms were fractured.

Instead of continuing to kill Huangtu, Tamura Hao swung the giant axe and shield, which he was about to lose, at the rock monster's right leg, breaking it.

Akimichi Dingzuo took the opportunity to knock the rock monster to the ground, then swung the iron rod at its head and kept hitting it until it was smashed to pieces.

At the same time, the Rock Ninja and Sand Ninja behind also chased after them.

"Listen, Rock Ninja on the opposite side. If you don't want your Tsuchikage's son to be killed by the Exploding Talisman, then go and stop the Sand Ninja. If a Sand Ninja comes over, I will detonate the Exploding Talisman and make your Third Tsuchikage die before his death.

Remember, if that happens, it means that the Sand Ninja killed the son of the Tsuchikage. You can start a war and enter the Wind Country, destroy the Sand Village, kill all the men, and take the women back and sell them to Kabukicho to make a fortune."

Tian Cun Hao canceled the butterfly transformation mode, grabbed Huang Tu's head with one hand and lifted him up, and with the other hand he stuck detonating talismans on his body, especially a bunch of them on his lower vital parts.

The faces of the Iwagakure and Sandagakure ninjas who were chasing after them turned black, but no one dared to move forward. Even the Iwagakure village had to keep an eye on the Sandagakure ninjas.

That was indeed their Tsuchikage's son. If he died here, they would all be held accountable, and it would be a huge loss to the village. (End of this chapter)
