But incorporating them into the fold is such a troublesome thing.
They,
After being assigned to clear out their assigned area, the team was determined to be the first to complete the mission!
But it was this very response that gave some people, who had not yet been completely overwhelmed by fear and anger, a glimmer of hope and a ray of light for survival.
"I am willing to submit, I am willing to surrender, I am willing to do anything for that lord!"
It is impossible to verify who was the first to succumb to despair, kneel down, and beg for mercy.
But such voices spread like wildfire throughout the area in an instant. Whether they were street thugs who usually bullied the villagers or gang leaders who controlled one or two streets, they all gave up resistance in the face of such thick bloodshed and despair.
And such pleas for mercy seemed to have an effect.
The screams from the periphery gradually subsided, and the pack of monstrous beasts, like wolves, slowly halted their advance.
They eventually found the code that allowed them to survive.
"Hey,"
"How boring. I thought you guys could make me happier."
As Shura, holding the umbrella, grinned, the sound of rushing water as he lightly shook the umbrella sent chills down one's spine!
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be residual blood on it!
【happy?】
[Indiscriminately taking lives just for fun!!]
Hearing these words and feeling the oppressive, stagnant atmosphere around them, the survivors who were kneeling and crawling on the ground were all heartbroken. Some of them couldn't bear the psychological pressure and collapsed to the ground with a thud, falling into a coma.
After all, they were just a bunch of street thugs who were always fighting and ruthless. Their daily bloody brawls were the limit of what they could do.
And these people in front of me actually take pleasure in killing!
The terrifying chasm between the two is nothing compared to the greater one.
Even more critically,
Above them were others, beings whom these terrifying fellows called demons and addressed as "Master"!
What is the purpose of such a powerful force descending upon this place?
Aren't you afraid that if things are exposed, other ninja villages in the surrounding area will question you and even launch a joint attack?
As they pondered this with chilling clarity, the demons' conversation echoed in their ears once more:
"Go and report to the superiors that the bandit gangs that had been staying in the Northwest region have all been suppressed."
"Yes."
[Northwest region?]
Who exactly is that person?
A strange question arose in the minds of these thugs.
However, in their next soliloquy, they suddenly realized something.
"Hopefully, we're the first."
[The first one?]
[It means!]
This means that not only were groups staying in their own area being hunted and killed, but other similar groups that were moving in other directions were also being intercepted at the same time.
As for the northwest region they mentioned, it's clearly a location with the Land of Hot Water as the reference point!
Where exactly do these guys come from?
Such questions became increasingly turbulent and uncontrollable in this oppressive environment.
"Excuse me, may I ask who the adult we will be following next is?"
Finally, someone couldn't contain their restlessness and asked the demons who were wiping their ninja tools.
However, such a simple question only drew the scornful laughter of those vicious criminals.
"follow?"
"Who do you think you are, to even mention following me?"
Lian Ya's eyelids drooped slightly, and his eyes revealed utter disdain.
after all,
Even they couldn't easily agree to follow!
To be able to follow that lord is to be a terrifying existence like the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, the Blood Dragon Eye, or the Shikotsumyaku.
These street thugs, who can only swagger around in front of ordinary people, actually dare to mention following me?
"Being able to continue living is already a blessing from that lord."
Say it,
It ignored its prey, who had lost all will to fight, and disappeared into the darkness.
Second task:
From this moment on, this country is their home.
These are the words of Miss Chino.
This also means that from now until the end of the event, any ninja or samurai who appears and attempts to traverse this land will be an enemy that needs to be driven away and even eliminated.
but,
Home?
Can these villains, who have spent half their lives wandering and committed countless evil deeds, destined for hell, possibly have a home?
Probably,
This is perhaps the only way to accept them as tools of execution.
.........
The starry sky was vast, and the light of the sky was dim.
This is the northeastern corner of the Land of Hot Water, a region bordering the Land of Frost.
After a few calls from night birds, two lithe figures quietly met in the shadow of a giant rock.
"Kahn's group has been confirmed to be wiped out. Uchiha Ara is still in this country and has had a lot of contact with civilians. We don't know what his purpose is yet, and we can't rule out the possibility that Konoha is behind it."
"What exactly does the higher-ups mean? Why haven't we heard anything yet?"
The man, who had been stealthily approaching from the direction of the Land of Hot Water, questioned in a low voice.
As soon as he identified who the troublemakers were, he immediately sent the message back, and last night he also provided supplementary explanations of all the events of the past two days and his own speculations.
It's almost the third day, and I still haven't received any response.
It should be noted that in just a few short days, the sentiments of the people of the entire Land of Hot Water have been quietly changing.
There are too many voices changing the impression of Uchiha Ara, and even the Uchiha clan.
Moreover, even if the Uchiha clan is at odds with the current high-ranking officials of Konoha, the clan is ultimately subordinate to the latter. Such a reversal of the tide is certainly not a good thing for the other neighboring forces.
Three days,
The mention of three days gave him a feeling that things weren't so simple.
It's definitely not as simple as just leaving or finding the evil cult hiding in the shadows.
This feeling stems from his precise intuition honed over decades of missions abroad.
That's why he chose to come out at this critical moment, to connect with the second secret agent stationed here, hoping that his companions here could obtain some useful information.
“Strange, the Land of Hot Springs was a layout plan personally designed by the higher-ups. The harvest of this year alone has greatly compensated for the village’s losses in previous years.”
"Logically speaking, the response from above shouldn't be this slow."
Upon hearing this, the man who came to make contact also frowned.
But he made a decision quickly.
"Here's what we'll do. You can go back for now and continue monitoring Uchiha Ara's every move as before, but of course, make sure you protect yourself and don't expose yourself."
"I rushed back to the village overnight to ask my superiors for instructions."
There are many possibilities regarding the lack of further instructions from the village:
For example, if the superiors are preoccupied with other important matters, they may not have the time or energy to deal with an external stronghold.
For example, the falcon used for transmission might encounter unforeseen circumstances en route. Of course, such unforeseen circumstances could be due to interception by hostile forces, although the possibility of this is very small.
Wait, wait,
Therefore, given the temporary loss of contact with the village and the potential for abnormalities in air routes, the most prudent course of action is for one person to personally return and bring back the next instructions.
Although this method has some drawbacks such as being time-consuming and laborious, it is the only option available at the moment.
"That's all we can do."
"Go quickly then, and be careful on the road."
After frowning and remaining silent for a short while, the ninja who had been lurking in the Land of Hot Springs for decades responded through gritted teeth.
If he could, he would never want to activate this secret line, or even leave the city like this.
After all, each transaction means that one's identity is once again subject to suspicion.
However, this time it was truly unexpected; the sudden madness of that Uchiha mad dog was beyond everyone's imagination.
And what exactly is the purpose of such genuine interaction with ordinary people?
Could it be to lay the foundation for leading the Uchiha clan to break away from Konoha in the future?
During that time, such a thought also flashed through his mind.
But don't joke around!
With just that one remaining clan, they probably wouldn't even make it out of the Land of Fire's borders before being wiped out by Konoha!
