Naruto: From the capture of the main family to the behind-the-scenes mastermind

Chapter 177 Ghost Lantern Huanyue: Looking for a disciple without eyebrows
In the dark basement, several Sand Village ninjas were anxiously waiting for news from their companions.

One ninja couldn't help but said subconsciously: "He hasn't come back yet, could he have been caught?"

"impossible?"

"Yes, if he is caught, our hiding here will be exposed, and those ninjas should have already attacked."

The other people also began to join in the conversation, their expressions pale.

As a ninja force on the northwest border of the Kingdom of Wind, their duty is to protect Yujing Castle.

But as the Fire Nation launched an attack, the Daimyo of the Wind Nation transferred some ninjas to provide support, and the nightmare began.

Thousands of ninjas rushed towards them from the direction of the Demon Country.

Yujing City fell in an instant.

Some of the defeated Sand Ninjas fled, some surrendered, and some hid like them, feeling anxious.

Seeing everyone trembling with fear, the ninja who spoke first became even more flustered and could only force a smile:
"His stealth skills are the best among us. If he is caught, we can't escape. Don't think too much..."

boom!
The door of the house was suddenly kicked open from outside, interrupting the Sand Ninja's words.

"who is it?!"

Everyone in the dark room turned to look towards the door.

He was wearing a desert-colored ninja suit, which was covered with a thin layer of sand and looked a little worn.

A familiar figure came into their sight, making them feel relieved.

One of the middle-aged ninjas felt relieved and said angrily, "You little brat, can't you be careful? If we are exposed here, we will all die!"

As he spoke, he moved closer to the other person.

"Did you get the daily necessities?"

"Don't come near him!"

A Sand Ninja looked at his companion who had entered the room, his expression changed slightly, and he exclaimed: "He looks weird!"

The other person's facial expression was very stiff, his eyes were empty and lifeless, and there were wounds on his body that seemed to have been caused by a kunai, but they were not bandaged, and there was no sign of pain on his face.

It's an illusion!
The middle-aged ninja was stunned. Before he could do anything, strange blood bubbles began to appear on the body of the person who had just entered and suddenly expanded.

boom!
A deafening explosion sounded, and the entire area seemed to tremble under the huge shock wave.

Not only were the houses razed to the ground, but the surrounding ground was also blown to pieces, forming a huge depression, as if a deep wound had been torn in the earth.

After the explosion, no one came out.

Obviously, the members of the Sand Village who had never expected their companion to explode were blown to pieces along with the house.

At the edge of the pit, Ranmaru observed with his red eyes, confirmed this, and shook his head at Chinano beside him.

"There are no survivors."

Hearing this, Qianno curled her lips in boredom, "It's boring. I thought they could resist for a while."

Lin stood aside and also witnessed what just happened. She secretly sighed: "Is this the ability of the Blood Dragon Eye? If you are hit by the Blood Dragon Eye's illusion, you will become a human bomb. It is really a powerful blood limit."

"Has it been resolved?"

At this time, a man without eyebrows walked out from the corner of the street. Seeing him, Chino muttered, "There was no fighting at all. I solved it by myself. Is there no Jonin? I think this level of enemy is not suitable for our team."

Gui Deng Huan Yue showed a listless expression and waved his hand casually.

"Do you think that jonin are cabbages? There are not many jonin here. When we attacked, they were mostly eliminated as key targets. Besides, you and Lin are not mentioned. Miss Ranmaru has only been a ninja for a short time. It's better for her to practice first."

"Senior Mizukage, I'm a man," Ranmaru reminded expressionlessly.

Hozuki Huanyue blinked, stared at Ranmaru's pretty face for a while, and nodded thoughtfully, "You are a man, which means that Kurochi Raiga is not the type I thought..."

He stopped talking halfway and changed the subject to avoid teaching the kids bad lessons. "It's a bit of a waste to give you this kind of mission. I'll find you a good sparring partner. But Chino is not allowed to use bloodline next time. Use the water jutsu I taught you."

"Eh? But I just awakened my bloodline not long ago, so it's okay to practice it a little bit, right? The water jutsu you taught me..."

"No buts!"

Hozuki Huanyue interrupted her ruthlessly, "The Blood Dragon Eye is very powerful, but have you ever seen a ninja from the Uchiha clan fighting purely with the Sharingan? Improve your basics first, and then it's up to you to choose how to fight. The water jutsu I taught you is not weak, so don't look at me with disdain."

Qianno pursed her lips, still a little reluctantly saying: "Yes, teacher——"

Ranmaru and Lin stood behind her, looking at her with helplessness and amusement.

The four of them chatted for a while, and Gui Deng Huan Yue determined the target, drove the three of them over, and followed them slowly.

Chino has participated in many actual battles on the isolated island, so her combat capability is quite good. Ranmaru's red eye detection capability is not inferior to the white eye, and she has received instruction from Hinata Yu. Lin was once the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki, participated in that experiment, and is a medical ninja with combat capability.

Even with the discerning eyes of Hozuki Gengetsu as a shadow, this team of three is very good, and they all possess water-attribute chakra, which makes them suitable as his disciples.

Too bad...they all have eyebrows.

Gui Deng Huan Yue sighed melancholy.

How nice it would be if my disciple didn't have eyebrows...

He shook his head helplessly and put away his fantasy. He turned his gaze to the ninjas patrolling on both sides of the street. Looking at their armor, he remembered Hinata Yu's words and raised his brows slightly.

"The strengthening potion made from the White Zetsu cell extract combined with the first generation chakra armor can make their combat power comparable to that of ordinary physical skills Genin. They can be considered a quick-made unit, but they do not have the various knowledge and adaptability that Genin should have. They cannot win encounters and can only be used to defend the city..."

Can it only be used to defend the city?

Strengthening potions can be produced continuously, and chakra armor can also be manufactured continuously as long as the rich mineral resources of the Wind Country are obtained.

The strength of these quick-made ninjas is insufficient, but they can be popularized.

It is indeed not strong with only a few hundred people now, but if the number reaches more than ten thousand... it will be trouble for the five Kage.

Gui Deng Huan Yue looked up at the moonlight.

The lack of lower-level combat power was the Snow Country’s biggest problem before. No matter how many elites there were, without enough lower-level and backbone forces, they would not be able to defend the vast territory.

But this problem has now been solved in several ways.

If the major countries don't seize the opportunity, they won't even have a chance to compete.

With a look of emotion on his face, Gui Deng Huan Yue, who was silently gazing at the sky, suddenly looked down at his feet with a dark face.

"I've been hanging around here for so long, isn't it time for you to leave?"

The dark liquid pulled out from his shadow, transformed into the appearance of a person who stood up and looked at him with a smile, "Please don't be angry, I'm just very interested in you."
