Chapter 405 Infiltrating Kirigakure and Capturing the Mizukage Alive! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The land of water, outside the village hidden in mist.

Three miles to the west, in a mountain valley, a squad of cloaked fog patrols discovered something unusual.

Due to the unique topography of the Land of Water, the plants here are mostly low-lying trees, tree ferns, and mosses.

However, at this moment, this ninja squad from Kirigakure discovered several trees that were over ten meters tall in this mountain valley.

It's impossible not to notice!
"How did such tall trees suddenly grow here?"

Captain Mistman went forward to investigate with a puzzled look and found that the trunks of these large trees all had holes in them, like door frames.

However, after a cursory inspection, Captain Kirigakure found nothing; they seemed to be just a few ordinary large trees.

Did you see these trees during your patrol yesterday?

With a hint of doubt in his mind, the Kirigakure captain looked at the members of his squad and asked.

"No, right? Such a tall tree, if it were there, it would be easy to notice, wouldn't it?"

"However, these trees don't look like plants from our area."

"It could be seeds brought by migratory birds from other places, which is not surprising."

"."

The team members were talking all at once, and even the Mist Village Captain was starting to wonder if he was overthinking things.

"Alright, let's continue patrolling and just mention it in the mission report later."

Captain Kirigakure quickly made a decision and prepared to continue their mission with his squad.

However, just as they were about to leave, a pale blue light flickered from the tree trunks of the large trees in front of them, or more precisely, from the holes in the trunks.

Such a noticeable fluctuation in chakra instantly attracted the attention of the group.

"What is this?"

"Could these trees be some kind of chakra plant? I've seen ninja beasts before, but I've never heard of ninja plants!"

While the genin were still discussing it curiously, the Kirigakure captain had a bad feeling.

His years of experience as a ninja taught him that anything unusual meant unpredictable danger!
"There might be danger. Stay away from these strange trees!"

The Kirigakure captain said warily as he pulled a signal flare from his ninja tool bag, ready to sound an alarm at any moment.

Upon hearing their captain's order, the several Kirigakure genin, though not understanding what was so scary about a few trees, immediately retreated one after another.

next second!
Several Konoha ninjas, dressed in ninja armor and wearing swirling headbands, emerged fully armed from the tree hollow.

"not good!"

The captain of the Hidden Mist Village was horrified when he saw this.

These strange trees were clearly the result of some unknown space-time technique that teleported these Konoha ninjas from a distance.

Looking at the attire of these Konoha ninjas, it's clear they've come with ill intentions!
"An enemy has invaded! Quickly report to Lord Mizukage!"

Captain Mist exclaimed loudly and immediately pulled the flare in his hand.

However, it was still too late!

歘!
A flash of light, like lightning, streaked past, and the Kirigakure captain froze instantly.

A line of blood appeared on his head and spread to his lower body in the blink of an eye. Then the Kirigakure captain was split to the sides and fell to the ground.

The signal flare he hadn't even had a chance to fire was also sliced ​​in two by the blade.

"Quickly check the surroundings to ensure that the Hidden Mist Village doesn't notice anything before the operation begins!"

Uchiha Shisui gave the order expressionlessly, and then sheathed his ninja sword.

"Yes, sir! Shisui!"

Several newly teleported Konoha ninjas responded immediately, and behind them lay the corpses of several other Kirigakure ninjas.

The legend of the Space Tree continued, and soon, eight hundred Tailed Beast Ninja and two hundred Impure World Reapers had assembled.

"Power Generation and Communications Department, confirm the situation of other units!" Uchiha Shisui issued the order again.

"Understood!" Uchiha Yatsuho immediately retreated to check the situation, and returned a short while later.

"Lord Shisui! It has been confirmed that the Eastern, Southern, and Northern Army Groups have all assembled!"

"Very good!" Uchiha Shisui glanced at his watch: "It's 9:42 now. Pass down the order: launch the general offensive in three minutes!"

"Yes, Lord Shisui!" Uchiha Yatsushiro immediately ran off to relay the order.

In the valley between the two mountain peaks, a thousand Konoha ninjas stood silently in the forest.

Quietly waiting for time to pass by, bit by bit.

What should have been just three minutes felt like an eternity.

Finally, it was 9:45.

"action!!!"

At Uchiha Shisui's command, he led the charge towards Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village).

Following that, the Uchiha and Hyuga clan ninjas, led by Setsuna and Hizashi Hyuga, also rushed out.

"Uchiha, charge with me!"

"The Hyuga clan, it's time to repay Lord Kanbara's kindness!"

Then came the ninjas from other small and medium-sized ninja clans, and other commoner ninjas.

"For Konoha! Kill!"

"For Lord Kanbaru!"

"For world peace!"

One by one, Konoha ninjas charged forward, chanting different slogans.

The distance of several kilometers passed in the blink of an eye, and Kirigakure was already close at hand. Uchiha Shisui could even see the terrified expressions on the faces of the Kirigakure ninja.

"Enemy attack!!!"

"Sound the alarm immediately! A large enemy force has invaded!"

"."

Seeing the enemy swarming across the mountains and fields, charging forward with overwhelming momentum, the Hidden Mist Village instantly erupted into chaos.

However, before they could react, a giant in chakra armor, seventy or eighty meters tall, suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Susanoo

The pale purple armored giant, its sheer size alone gives one a sense of oppressive pressure that makes it hard to breathe.

"City Destroyer, Earth-Splitting Slash!"

Uchiha Shisui controlled his Susanoo, raised his chakra sword which was dozens of meters long, and slashed at the Hidden Mist Barrier with all his might.

boom! boom! boom! ! !
Boom! ! !
After unleashing more than a dozen slashes in an instant, the defensive barrier of Kirigakure, along with the surrounding buildings, collapsed with a deafening roar.

After breaking through the Hidden Mist Barrier, Uchiha Shisui did not continue to act, but simply stood there.

The Konoha ninjas, who were a step behind him, overtook him with great momentum and stormed into Kirigakure.

"Witness me!"

"Witness me!"

A group of Edo Tensei ninjas with cracked faces, carrying a large number of [self-destructing parasitic insects], roared as they charged toward the enemy.

It detonated instantly the moment it approached the Hidden Mist ninja!
boom! boom! boom!
After a series of explosions, the nearby Hidden Mist ninja suffered heavy losses.

"Kill!"

"Infiltrate the Hidden Mist Village! Capture the Water Shadow alive!"

"Capture the Mizukage alive! Dedicate it to Lord Kanbaru!"

"."

The tailed beast ninjas who followed closely behind slaughtered all the heavily wounded Kirigakure ninjas and skillfully sent their souls to the [Pure Land of the Dead].

In just one exchange, the nearby Hidden Mist ninjas were instantly wiped out.

The Konoha army did not pause in its advance and continued to move forward.

The largest group headed straight for the Water Shadow Building.

The other teams dispersed in other directions to clear out the Hidden Mist ninja scattered throughout the village.

On the rooftop of a building not far away, a member of the Mist Shadows wearing an animal mask stared at the scene before him in disbelief.

"They're Konoha ninjas. What are they doing in the village?"

How come there wasn't a single word from the village about such a large-scale march? "There's a lone soldier here, take him out!"

A Konoha squad spotted him and rushed over without hesitation, seemingly treating him like an insect they could crush at will!
This disrespect angered the Mist Shadow operative.

"Damn it! Don't underestimate us Blood Mist Ninjas!"

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

The Hidden Mist ninja began forming hand seals and unleashed a water dragon attack, blasting it towards several Konoha ninjas.

"Wind Release: Great Severing Technique!"

The leading Konoha ninja seemed to have no intention of dodging; the tailed beast chakra surged within his body, instantly forming several enormous wind blades in front of him.

boom! ! !
The water-style escape technique of the Hidden Mist Division was instantly shattered, turning into scattered streams of water.

At the same time, two other Konoha ninjas rushed forward.

One person was dragging a Fire Release: Rasengan in their hand, while the other was unleashing blinding lightning.

At the same time, the attack hit the Hidden Mist Anbu!

Bang! Crash!
puff~

Two holes instantly appeared in the body of the Hidden Mist operative, and blood and internal organs poured out of his body, causing him to lose his life in an instant.

An invisible bone chain appeared out of thin air, drawing the soul of the Hidden Mist Dark Division into the [Pure Land of the Underworld].

"100 points secured! Don't delay, keep going!"

After killing the enemy, the Konoha ninja did not stop and continued to rush deeper into the area.

Kirigakure has no shortage of Kirigakure ninja, and soon they encountered a new enemy.

"I sensed a chakra fluctuation fifty meters ahead; it's a few brats!"

"The living are more valuable than the dead, knock them out."

A Tailed Beast Ninja immediately stepped forward, knocked out the few Kirigakure genin, and left behind a seal engraved with the squad's number.

After dealing with these matters, the group did not delay and began searching the entire village for the Hidden Mist ninja.

After they left, in a house not far away, a few civilians peeked around and then dragged the sealed genin back inside.

"Are Xiao Gongping and the others dead?"

"He's still breathing, he's just passed out," Kojima Ichiro replied after checking.

Why didn't those people kill them?

"do not know"

Ichiro Kojima shook his head, peering through the crack in the door with a hint of existential doubt.

He came to Kirigakure to make a living because he couldn't fill his stomach by fishing at the seaside.

Two years ago, there was unrest in Kirigakure. I heard that the Fourth Mizukage died, and today enemies have invaded the village again.

Kojima Ichiro had some regrets; perhaps fishing by the sea would have been better.

The same scene was playing out in other parts of Kirigakure.

Ringo Ameyuri, with her long red hair tied up in horn-like buns on both sides, was looking at the enemy in front of her with excitement.

"What a delicious smell! I can't wait!"

Ringo Ameyuri's warlike genes were activated, and she grinned, revealing two rows of serrated teeth.

"Hiss~ This guy's so arrogant! Let's give her a taste of her own medicine with a suicide bomb!"

Upon hearing this, one of the impure ninjas was about to step forward, but was stopped by another companion.

"Wait! This woman is quite strong and rather beautiful. We mustn't damage her; we still need to offer her to the Hokage!"

"With those teeth of hers, would the Hokage like them?" the Edo Tensei ninja asked doubtfully.

"You don't understand, that's why the Hokage is interested!"

The Konoha ninja who spoke spoke with great conviction, and his confidence impressed the others.

"That makes sense, let's capture her alive! If the Hokage is happy, we'll have enough points to exchange for the Tailed Beast Fruits!"

"agree!"

"agree!"

After the Konoha ninjas finished their discussion, Ringo Ameyuri had already launched her attack, wielding two ninja swords and slashing at them.

"Be careful! Don't hurt her too badly!"

"Don't attack vital points!"

The conversation among the Konoha ninjas angered Ringo Ameyuri, causing her chakra to surge instantly.

"Disgusting arrogance, Lightning Release: Lightning Storm!"

As Ringo Ameyuri slashed, a thick bolt of lightning instantly struck down from the sky, crashing straight down.

Several Konoha ninjas quickly dodged, but were still hit by the burst of lightning.

One of the Konoha ninjas targeted by Ringo Ameyuri had his chest slashed open with a single blow.

Seeing this, the others rushed to his aid, thus preventing him from dying under Ringo Ameyuri's blade.

"Uesugi, how are you?"

"No internal organs were damaged, just broken bones!" Uesugi said. "This person is too strong; I'm afraid he won't be easy to capture alive."

He discovered how difficult Ringo Ameyuri was to deal with after just one exchange.

"Hehehe," his companion chuckled, "The higher the risk, the greater the reward. I'm sure the Hokage will love this gift!"

"That's true, let's keep going!"

Uesugi used the tailed beast's chakra to quickly heal his wounds before rejoining the attack.

Because they were to be captured alive, several Konoha ninjas were temporarily at a disadvantage, but fortunately, no one was killed.

Thanks to the endurance of their tailed beast chakra, they were always able to wear down Ringo Ameyuri.

While Uesugi and his companions were overjoyed at the great achievement that was about to be theirs, Maki, who was actually watching the battle through the virtual space, was furious.

"What kind of junk are you offering me? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

"Why would I like it? With that mouthful of serrated teeth, aren't you afraid of getting your ** bitten off?"

"Huh? It seems pretty cool too... Ugh, ugh, ugh!"

"What's so funny! They're just slandering me! Blatant slander!"

Mu Sheng couldn't understand how his reputation had become like this.
These Konoha ninjas must have some character flaws; they're just sycophants, humph!

Mu Sheng then looked at the others, and upon looking, he saw many similar scenes.

One or two cases are exceptions, but when a dozen or so of the same thing happen at once, Mu Sheng falls silent.

After a long pause, he slammed his hand on the table!
boom! ! !
"I understand, it's Uchiha Setsuna!"

"It must be because of his incompetence in governing that his subordinates have such a deep misunderstanding of me!"

"You wretched Uchiha Setsuna, you've caused me so much trouble!"

what! ?

Far away in Kirigakure, where the old man Setsuna was leading his men in a fierce battle against the enemy, he suddenly felt a tightness in his head.

It felt like a black pot had been put on my head.

Just then, the old man heard a loud shout!
"Boiling Release: Skillful Mist Technique!"

Immediately afterwards, a large amount of white mist surged towards the Konoha army.

Wherever the fog passed, traces resembling sulfuric acid corrosion appeared on the buildings and the ground.

Some Konoha ninjas who couldn't dodge in time had a layer of skin corroded away instantly, and even the muscle tissue underneath began to rot.

"It's the Fifth Mizukage!"

In an instant, the old man confirmed the identity of the visitor based on the information.

He immediately ordered his Edo Tensei ninja subordinates to rescue the people, as Edo Tensei ninjas were the most suitable for this situation.

"Water Reflection."

A figure suddenly appeared beside the old man, it was Uchiha Shisui.

"give it to me!"

"Susanoo!!!"
