I'm in Konoha, and I have ten skill slots.

Upon arriving at the port of Kirigakure, Chojuro said, "Lord Shigure, I'll go find a ship!"

Shi Yu waved her hand. "Forget it, let's not wear it anymore, let's just leave!"

"Clam?"

Just like that? How long would it take to travel across the sea? This is the sea, not a river. It's not something you can cross in a few minutes. It takes several days to travel by boat from the Land of Lightning to the Land of Lightning.

While Chojuro had already mastered the technique of running across, the problem was that he could manage to run for a few hours, but he definitely wouldn't be able to keep going all day.

Shigure came to the shore, slowly squatted down, and put her hand in.

Looking up ahead... frozen!

Ice Release activated.

The next second, a two-meter-wide ice path instantly formed on the sea surface and stretched for hundreds of meters.

Shigure jumped onto the ice and said, "Let's go!"

"It's faster than taking a boat and running there!"

Chojuro stared wide-eyed at Shigure; he hadn't expected such a method!

Has Shigure-sama's mastery of Ice Release reached such a level?

You can easily create a path out of ice...

The ninja guarding the port were also astonished by this scene.

"What's going on with those three kids?"

"Ice Release? Could that child be the one that Lord Kage brought back before?"

The next second, the three of them started running across the ice, stepping on it as smoothly as if they were on land.

Chapter 183 The Great Evolution of Ninjutsu: The Hidden Cloud Ninja Team

Near the waters of the Land of Lightning.

There are many scattered small islands here, forming an island group.

Although there are many of these islands, they are not very large. The largest can barely accommodate a village, and the smallest is only a dozen square meters.

Furthermore, the islands are very close together, making it difficult to build ports.

So there is no one living here.

However, the sounds of fierce fighting can now be heard from this group of islands.

Swish swish!

Several squads of Cloud Village ninjas suddenly emerged from the island, chasing after two wounded ninjas who were trying to escape.

The enemy jumped onto a boat at the edge of the island, used explosive tags to force back the pursuing Cloud Village ninja squad, and then took the opportunity to sail away.

They watched as the ships sailed away.

The Cloud Village Ninja Captain: "Let's get on the ship too and continue the chase. We absolutely cannot let them get away!"

Just as they were about to board the ship, they heard a series of explosions.

The Cloud Village ninja's face immediately turned grim. "Captain, our ship was destroyed by them using explosive tags!"

Captain: "Damn it, those two were prepared all along!"

Cloud Ninja: "What do we do now?"

There are no boats now, and even if we chase them on the sea, we can't catch up with the speed of the sailboats. The wind is very strong now, and the boats are going very fast.

If we catch up, that's fine; if we don't, we'll just have to swim back in the sea!

With such strong winds, there's a good chance of torrential rain as well. If that happens, the waves will be churning and we might not be able to come back.

The captain was struggling with whether or not to take a gamble.

Suddenly, crackling sound!

The boat the two were piloting seemed to have hit a reef and came to a complete stop.

The captain immediately grinned. "Haha! Looks like luck is on our side. They've run aground and can't escape! Everyone, get out to sea and chase after them!"

A large group of Cloud Ninjas jumped into the sea and ran swiftly across the surface.

The two ninjas who had escaped from the ship immediately turned grim. "How is this possible? How could there be a reef here!"

The other person also disagreed: "I know this area better than anyone; there's absolutely no way there could be any reefs here!"

The two went to the bow of the ship to take a look.

However, what they saw left them both stunned.

It wasn't a reef, but something white!

It lay straight across the sea, and it looked as if...

"ice?"

How could there be such a large piece of ice on the sea surface?

As he spoke, he looked in the direction the ice block stretched out, and it seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see. The ice was like a giant white serpent, coiled on the sea surface, forming a road on the sea.

How can this be?

While the two were still in shock, the Cloud Village ninja force had already boarded the ship.

"Where do you think you're going to run to!"

By the time the two came to their senses, they were already surrounded, and the battle resumed, but they were quickly dealt with by the Cloud Village ninja.

"Those two idiots, if we hadn't run into that hidden reef, our mission would probably have failed!"

Another Cloud Ninja asked in confusion, "That's not right! I remember there weren't any reefs here, so why did the boat for two people suddenly stop?"

As he spoke, the man went to the bow of the ship and looked down, and what he saw stunned him.

"what happened to you?"

Another Cloud Village ninja asked, and sensing something was wrong, he walked over.

But then suddenly, the sound of footsteps could be heard.

A group of people on the boat looked in the direction from which the footsteps came.

"That is……"

"A person? Someone is running on the sea!"

Those running on the sea must be ninjas.

Wait a minute! Running on the sea? Apart from the island behind them, there are no other ships or islands in any other direction. In other words, they came from the sea that was out of sight?

That's a really long distance! No normal ninja could possibly last that long!

"Captain, come quick!"

Upon hearing the sound, the captain came to the bow of the ship and stared wide-eyed in utter astonishment at the ice on the sea!

The road formed of ice stretched out continuously, seemingly heading towards the Land of Lightning.

At that moment, the footsteps grew closer.

Shigure, Chojuro, and Haku were running at full speed. As they passed by, Shigure glanced at the ship that had crashed into his ice block.

Sorry!

You guys are unlucky. Didn't you even look ahead before you drove off?

My ice cubes are now almost as hard as iron.

Shiyu and the other two ran past quickly.

The Cloud Ninjas standing on the boat looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Captain, was I seeing things? I think I saw three kids from Kirigakure running on the ice!"

"I saw it too!"

"How could the sea freeze over in this weather, and by sheer coincidence, form a road?"

"Could it be the magic of those three brats?"

"What kind of technique is this? I've never seen anything like it before. It can freeze the sea and even create a path. How terrifying is the control required?"

The captain was also incredulous. If it weren't for the fact that everyone else had seen it, he would have even doubted whether he was seeing things.

The three kids from Kirigakure should all be genin, but these three Kirigakure genin are too strange!

“We should be there soon!” Shi Yu said.

We just saw the Cloud Ninja from the Land of Lightning, which means we're not far from the Land of Lightning.

Haku: "According to the information provided by the ninja, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki is hiding on a small island in the sea surrounding the Land of Lightning!"

Chojuro scratched his head. "But there are at least five hundred islands around the Land of Lightning, if not a thousand. How are we supposed to find them all?"

Shi Yu frowned, but quickly came up with a solution!
