Naruto: The Caged Bird Cannot Confine Me - Feng Hou Qi Men

"Whether it's waterproof and fireproof, or has added explosive properties, it can't hide the fact that paper is originally made from flowers, plants and trees."

Feng Qi calmly withdrew his arm, which was circulating Qi and chakra, and looked at the disbelief in Konan's eyes. He explained, "I just returned them to their original state."

Upon hearing this, Konan ignored the blood spilling from the corner of her mouth and the extremely chaotic chakra within her body, her eyes fixed on Feng Qi's gossipy Byakugan.

"So that's how it is. This is the true power contained within your eyes..."

A dark shadow suddenly emerged from the side and completely enveloped her body.

"Hurry up and leave! If we don't leave now, it will really be too late!" Black Zetsu's alarmed voice came from within.

He had just tried to repair his severed body by endlessly dividing his cells, as he always did.

But the result shocked him: he was unable to achieve a connection with White Zetsu!

That's not ordinary water!!

Seeing this, Feng Qi simply stood still, calmly dusted off his sleeves, and made no intention of continuing the pursuit.

As previously analyzed, now is not the best time to launch a full-scale war against Akatsuki. Leaving Konan and Zetsu behind would only complicate matters further.

Moreover, the Black Zetsu before them wasn't even its true form...

Having mastered the Feng Hou Qi Men technique, he possesses absolute potential for growth and advantages, so there's no need for him to take Tsunade and Shion on an adventure here.

Consider this a warning to the Akatsuki.

I believe these guys won't bother showing up and disturbing the peace anytime soon.

In the blink of an eye, Black Zetsu, carrying the heavily injured Konan, disappeared into the ground without a trace.

A gentle breeze blows, carrying the fragrance of flowers everywhere.

The forest returned to calm, as if the battle had never happened.

"Feng Qi, is it really a good idea to just let those two leave like this? They look like they have ulterior motives!"

Ziyuan clenched her fist indignantly.

Her thinking was simple: anyone who wanted to harm them should pay the price!

"Strange ninjutsu I've never seen before, with chakra levels far exceeding those of ordinary Jonin. What are the origins of those two?" Tsunade asked, resting her chin on her hand with a grave expression.

Her perspective and temperament were naturally much more mature than Ziyuan's, and she knew very well how difficult Xiaonan and Jue had been to deal with.

If it weren't for Feng Qi, she wouldn't even be confident of defeating him!

And he had absolutely no recollection of this kind of guy!

"They are all members of Akatsuki, an organization formed by S-rank rogue ninja from various ninja villages."

Feng Qi's words both answered Tsunade's question and explained the danger posed by the other party to Shion.

"Akatsuki? Is that the organization that Orochimaru and Itachi Uchiha joined...?"

Tsunade frowned deeply.

Having traveled the ninja world for so many years, she had naturally heard of the existence of the Akatsuki organization.

However, she had previously been too preoccupied with the messy affairs of the ninja world and only had a superficial understanding of the Akatsuki organization.

"That's right. Besides the five great ninja villages, the Akatsuki is a force we have to take seriously."

Feng Qi took two steps forward, picked a flower, and sighed softly, "Perhaps to be more accurate, their level of danger far surpasses that of the Five Great Ninja Villages."

He opened his palm, letting the scattered petals drift in the wind.

There are so many troubles...

Chapter 125. Raikage Deploys, Seizes Byakugan

125.

Considering the future changes in the ninja world, on their way to the Land of Lightning, Fuuki gave Tsunade and Shion a brief introduction to the existence of the Akatsuki organization and basic information about its members.

Shion, who only had a superficial understanding of the ninja world, reacted relatively calmly, but Tsunade was greatly shocked by it.

The Akatsuki's power and mystery were one thing, but what surprised her even more was Feng Qi's level of understanding of the Akatsuki.

In Tsunade's memory, before Fuuki defected from Konoha, he always stayed in the village and did nothing, and he was the kind of person who would only carry out a mission if the Hokage gave him a forced order.

Therefore, he is the most special among Konoha's "Special Jonin" echelon, without exception!

As they spent more time together, Tsunade became increasingly certain that Fuuki was just a brat who only knew how to dump trouble on others and had very limited fighting spirit and drive.

And this lazy and easygoing guy actually knew information about the Akatsuki organization that even the five great ninja villages didn't know about!

Watching the young figure constantly moving through the jungle, Tsunade lowered her head slightly and couldn't help but sigh.

She thought she knew Feng Qi well enough, but the indescribable mysterious aura emanating from him only grew stronger.

Is it really possible to gain insight into the ninja world without leaving home simply by awakening a special Byakugan?

This question couldn't help but pop into Tsunade's mind.

Of course, she absolutely trusted Feng Qi; otherwise, she wouldn't have entrusted him with her ancestral crystal pendant, embarking on what was likely the last "gamble" of her life.

You little brat, let's see when you'll finally come clean with everything from me!

After glaring fiercely at Feng Qi's retreating figure, Tsunade stopped thinking about it and focused all her attention on getting on the road.

Feng Qi naturally noticed this change in her expression. He chuckled, scratched his head, and thought to himself, 'This Granny Tsunade is strangely adorable…'

Although he had absolute trust in both Tsunade and Shion, both their identities as transmigrators and the Feng Hou Qi Men were too important, and revealing them would risk leaking information.

In the world of ninjas, there are countless ways to gather information!

-

The distance between the Land of Demons and the Land of Lightning is quite far. To avoid unnecessary trouble and battles, Feng Qi and his companions need to bypass the Land of Fire, which stands in their way.

This undoubtedly increased the time cost significantly, and it wasn't until a week after leaving the Land of Demons that the three of them officially set foot on the territory of the Land of Lightning.

And this was all without them making any unnecessary delays!

The Land of Lightning is mostly composed of cliffs and precipices, with thin clouds and mist shrouding most of the country.

While the natural resources here are not as abundant and fertile as those of the Land of Fire, which is surrounded by forests, they are not as barren and impoverished as those of the Land of Earth. The living environment is somewhere between the two great powers, allowing for basic self-sufficiency.

Because of its proximity to the clouds, most of the residents here have dark skin and are physically robust.

It is worth noting that the infrastructure level of the Land of Lightning is much more advanced than that of other countries. Not only are there reinforced concrete buildings, but even basic infrastructure such as power lines, water and gas are very complete!

The level of technology in the Naruto world has always been something that people find hard to fathom...

Feng Qi and his two companions made no attempt to conceal their whereabouts, directly exposing themselves to the ninjas on guard duty at the border.

Shion is the supreme leader of the Land of Demons, which is equivalent to the daimyo of other countries.

According to normal procedure, they should first visit the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning to explain their purpose, and then contact the Hidden Cloud Village.

However, this approach is far too inefficient. Putting aside the mental and physical strain, the Land of Lightning, being a nation of fanatical fighters, might not accept their proposals, ultimately leading to a situation where force is needed to deter them.

Instead of doing that, it would be better to bring this part forward, show a little bit of skill, and make the subsequent negotiations easier!

As Feng Qi had predicted, the Hidden Cloud Village learned of their arrival the moment they appeared within the Land of Lightning's borders.

The towering Cloud Village is occasionally punctuated by muffled thunder.

Raikage's office.

A strong man wearing a white cloak, with light yellow hair and skin like black bronze, slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly.

"What did you say? The Konoha rogue ninja Hyuga Fuuki and the legendary Sannin Tsunade are on their way here?"

The wide belt on his body rubbed against his heavy armor, making a clanging sound.

“That’s right, the information sent back by the Dark Division is quite accurate. They don’t seem to have any intention of hiding their tracks.”

Raikage's secretary, Mabui, held a folder to her chest and truthfully reported the intelligence she had obtained from the Anbu.

"They just set up some boring Daoyin Village, and now they're brazenly barging into the Land of Lightning. They've got some nerve!" Ai sneered disdainfully.

After this period of fermentation, the news of the Hidden Village of the Demon Country has gradually spread throughout the entire ninja world, causing a great uproar and attracting the attention of countless people.

If it were an insignificant little village like the Star Village in the Land of Bears, it would naturally receive little attention.

The fact that the first Hokage of the Hidden Village, Kage, was actually Tsunade, who possessed the legitimate bloodline of the Senju clan of Konoha, and even bore the shadow of the S-rank rogue ninja Hyuga Fuuki, is sure to pique one's interest.

Some countries and villages that have deep-seated hatred for Konoha are even more maliciously waiting to see Konoha make a fool of itself.

And the Hidden Cloud Village is one of them!

Mabui thought for a moment and then asked, "Lord Raikage, they are very dangerous. They might have some special purpose. Should we have the Anbu and the security forces intercept them?"

Because of the overwhelming strength of Hyuga Fuuki and Tsunade, coupled with the presence of Shion, the priestess of the Land of Demons, the Anbu of Kumogakure dared not rashly clash with them without the Raikage's instructions.

"What purpose could they possibly have in barging in so arrogantly?"

Ai angrily flicked his sleeves, "They're trying to challenge the prestige of the Land of Lightning and the Hidden Cloud Village!"

"So, what do you plan to do?"

The man in hemp clothing looked worried, as if he had guessed what the Raikage was thinking.

Sure enough, a fierce and arrogant smile appeared on Ai's lips.

"Guests are guests, so of course we should fulfill their wishes. I'll personally go and entertain them!"

"No! This is far too dangerous!" Mabui exclaimed.

"Bubuyi, are you questioning my power?" Ai's gaze suddenly turned fierce.

Zi La Zi La!

Blinding lightning burst forth, leaping continuously across his massive muscles.

"Your subordinate dares not!" The man in hemp clothing lowered his head in fear.

Seeing the worry in the secretary's eyes, Ai withdrew his violent chakra aura and regained his composure.

"It's said that Hyuga Kazeki has broken the Caged Bird Seal, which is a great opportunity to seize the Byakugan. We absolutely cannot allow any mistakes to happen," Ai explained in a deep voice.

The Hidden Cloud Village had long coveted the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan, and even went so far as to send a ninja leader to the Hyuga main family to kidnap Hinata.
