Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

Qu Feng nodded: "Of course."

As he spoke, he gave Zhili a demonstration.

With a wave of his hand, he summoned the wind, and clouds gathered around him, forming a small vortex in his hand.

Chapter 141 Arrival

As he spoke, he gave Zhili a demonstration.

With a wave of his hand, he summoned the wind, and clouds gathered around him, forming a small vortex in his hand.

The clouds swirled and became increasingly dense.

After about ten minutes, the cloud turned into a white, transparent bead.

"Wow, that's amazing! What is that?"

The explanation in the Wind-Taking Countermeasure is: "This is to create a vortex using chakra, allowing clouds to enter and eventually merge into a high-density marble."

"Throwing the marble out will cause an explosion, or I can detonate it manually."

After saying that, he threw the marble in his hand away.

Zhili thought that a stone of this size would only produce a small vibration at best.

Unexpectedly, it blasted apart a large patch of nearby clouds, making the sky seem as if it had been suddenly erased.

"Wow! That ninjutsu is pretty powerful! It's a B-rank ninjutsu!"

Qu Feng scratched the back of his head. He had been deliberately controlling the density of the clouds entering, but he hadn't expected them to still have such power.

If an ordinary person were hit by the explosion, they would probably be buried on the spot.

"Ahem, actually it's an S-rank ninjutsu, but I controlled the amount of chakra I used, which is why it's so miniature."

Chiri nodded and didn't ask any more questions. After all, an S-rank ninjutsu is a ninja's trump card and it's something they would never tell outsiders.

This is also the tacit understanding among ninjas; they won't pry into each other's privacy or do anything like that just because they're friends.

Time flies, and several hours have passed in the blink of an eye.

The two people and two cranes had been flying in the sky for so long, they must be very tired, and it was time for them to eat.

Qufeng signaled the two cranes to descend, and the speed was just right. Apart from some shaking, Qufeng and Zhili felt almost no discomfort and had no sense of weightlessness.

Leaving the clouds, Qu Feng was finally able to see the ground clearly. Before, the clouds had blocked his view, and he had no idea where he was.

"It looks like we've flown quite far. We'll definitely be back in the Land of Lightning tomorrow afternoon or evening."

By analyzing the environment on the ground, they calculated that they had only traveled a quarter of the distance.

However, they didn't expend much energy along the way, and once the two cranes recovered, they could continue their journey.

Moreover, Qingyun and Liufeng have worked so hard all morning, they deserve a reward.

They grabbed a handful of their favorite foods and bought some small fish and shrimp to treat themselves to a meat feast.

After all, we'll be relying on them for transportation these next couple of days, so we definitely need to take good care of them.

"Hey Feng, shouldn't we get ready for dinner?"

Qu Feng looked up at the sky and estimated that it was about time, so he took out some food he had bought yesterday and shared it with Zhili.

The taste wasn't particularly good, but I still quite liked it, since it's a food that keeps you full for a while.

After a simple lunch, Qingyun and Liufeng finished eating and, after repeatedly asking to confirm that they were not tired, they decided to eat.

The two set off again on Qingyun and Liufeng, heading towards the Land of Thunder.

"By the way, Feng, didn't we forget to bring a portrait? What if we mistake someone for someone else?"

"I ask you with a puzzled look," Zhili asked.

Qu Feng shook his head and said, "I remember what he looks like, and don't we have a code?"

"That's true, I'm a little confused myself."

Qu Feng laughed but didn't say anything.

Setting off again, it soared into the clouds with a single flap of its wings, but the air currents in the sky were quite strong, and it was possible to be blown away if it wasn't careful.

Chiri was also trembling with fear, clinging tightly to Ryufu until the airflow calmed down before gradually letting go.

"Phew, that scared me to death! I thought we were going to be blown over."

Hearing Zhili's words, Qufeng smiled and said, "You're worrying too much. Qingyun and Liufeng are quite strong. Xiaofeng can't do anything to them."

After hearing this, Zhili nodded. Now she had a better understanding of the two cranes' strength.

At the same time, I'm starting to get used to flying at high altitudes.

This mission was much easier thanks to the two cranes, since walking to the Land of Lightning would have been quite tiring.

Furthermore, it can avoid unnecessary conflicts and unexpected dangers along the way, all of which would increase travel time.

Just like the time I went to the Land of Wind, I spent a lot of time fighting with so many wandering ninjas on the way.

The next afternoon, the two finally landed safely, not far from the border between the Land of the Moon and the Land of Lightning, just a few steps away.

Instead of letting Qingyun and Liufeng continue to follow, Qufeng dispelled the summoning spell and sent them home to rest.

The two exchanged a glance: "Let's go."

He then strode forward, crossed the border between the two countries, and was now in the real Land of Lightning.

Both of them wore ordinary, common clothes that were not eye-catching, in order not to attract too much attention.

If I came to the Land of Lightning in my usual clothes, I would be exposed in no time.

However, there is another problem with Qu Feng now, which is that his hair is white, and this is also troubling.

The current Raikage is someone I've fought before, so once this is reported, I'll basically be wanted nationwide.

Looking across the ninja world, there are very few people with white hair, except for the elderly.

Therefore, when taking wind, one must find a way to make it less noticeable, otherwise, one would be swaggering around with white hair on one's head.

Upon closer inspection, everyone realized they were outsiders, which made things more complicated.

Fuu and Chiri came up with a few ideas together, but none of them were particularly reliable.

When Zhili even saw black flowers, she immediately ran out to pick them to dye her hair.

While Chiri was away, Tofu secretly opened the system store and browsed through it to see if there was anything that could temporarily dye hair.

After looking around, it seems that only a single-use black dye is useful.

It wasn't very expensive, so Qu Feng immediately clicked to redeem it and started spraying it on his head.

When Zhili returned after gathering a large number of black flowers, she found that Qufeng's hair had turned black. Although it looked rather disheveled, she could simply change her clothes.

"Qu Feng, how did you do that? It's so dark!"

Toru made up an excuse, saying it was a family heirloom, and that he had just come up with this reason to get it over with by Zhili.

"Oh, what a pity! I picked so many flowers, but they're completely useless."

Qu Feng smiled, looked at the handful of black flowers in Zhi Li's hand, and with a wave of his hand, put them away.

"You can keep them and make them into dried flowers when you get back. Black flowers are not very common."

Chapter 142 Village

Qu Feng smiled, looked at the handful of black flowers in Zhi Li's hand, and with a wave of his hand, put them away.

"You can keep them and make them into dried flowers when you get back. Black flowers are not very common."

Chiri smiled and said, "That's right, the Land of Fire really doesn't have this kind of black flower."

"Now that your hair problem is solved, let's hurry up and go."

Seeing how energetic Chiri was, Toru said, "Remember, we're here on a mission, not a trip."

"Also, by the time I change my clothes, they're already dirty."

After saying that, Qufeng ran behind the bushes to change his clothes, while Zhili looked around.

Having just crossed the border between the Land of the Moon and the Land of Lightning, Torufu discovered that, apart from the black flowers that were not found in the Land of Fire, there were none here.

Everything else is no different from the Land of Fire.

"Are you done yet?"

"OK OK."

After changing his clothes, Torifu emerged from the bushes. He was wearing very ordinary clothes, which Tobirama had given them. It was said that the people of the Land of Lightning all wore this style of clothing.

Chiri wasn't used to Torifu's black hair yet, so it all seemed new and exciting to her: "Speaking of which, this is the first time I've ever seen Torifu with black hair."

Qu Feng ran his hand through a strand of hair. He was used to white hair and wasn't quite used to it, but it would only last for ten days or half a month. He could get rid of it after the mission was over.

"Let's go. It would be best to reach a village before dark and stay overnight, otherwise we'll have to camp."

Upon hearing this, Zhili quickly pulled Qufeng along to get started; she certainly didn't want to camp in the wild.

Although we brought a tent for ventilation, it was so poor quality that it was almost falling apart in the wind.

Although the two of them couldn't run as fast as the crane, they weren't slow either.

The two looked at the map and ran towards the nearest village, estimating they could arrive before dark.

As the two ventured deeper into the Land of Lightning, the surrounding terrain became increasingly rugged, with various mountains and streams.

This added a lot of difficulty for the two of them.

"I have a feeling we might really have to spend the night in the wild."

They had miscalculated; if they had traveled at a normal speed, they would have definitely been able to reach a village before dark.

However, they overlooked the terrain of the Land of Lightning, with its various rugged rocks and mountains, which slowed their progress considerably.

At this rate, let alone before dark, it will be difficult to even reach the village in the middle of the night.

There was no other way but to use ninjutsu.
