Uchiha Akaishi Tour

Hearing Akaishi's shouts from underground, Onoki was so enraged he didn't want to fight again—he knew Akaishi was deliberately humiliating him and had made sure others could hear it...

Anyone who didn't know better would think that Akaishi spared him because he was old!

However, since Onoki was unaware that Orochimaru and Tsunade might "go home" at any time, he remained calm and did not linger.

……

Akaishi kept a close eye on the earth's fluctuations, while Minato was also using all his senses to perceive them. Only after confirming that Onoki had left the range of their perception and showed no intention of turning back did the two of them relax.

at the same time……

Thump, thump—

Orochimaru and Tsunade also disappeared in a cloud of white smoke caused by spatial friction.

"Should we go to the Earth Capital to intimidate them?" Jiraiya asked, taking the initiative to speak.

Akashi hesitated for a moment, noticing that Lanwu was already injured and was healing herself, so he shook his head and said, "The goal has been achieved, and continuing to fight would only make us look weak."

Akaishi also did not want to bring Onoki back.

Now, countless people can attest that Onoki left because of the principle that "Konoha's Red Stone does not kill the old or the young." If the fight had continued, things might not have turned out that way!

With the addition of Shuimen, the four of them withdrew from Yanpan Village and soon reunited with Maitreya...

"That tiny person lingered about thirty miles away after leaving before finally departing completely," Maitreya reminded him.

Since there was no sign that the other party was returning, Miroku did not rush to tell Akaishi.

Upon hearing her say this, Minato couldn't help but glance at her twice. Under normal circumstances, if it were an ordinary ninja engaging in normal activities, Minato's "Thousand Realms Awakening Technique" would be able to sense chakra. However, when Onoki left, he used "Earth Submersion" to switch to "Earth Fish Reflection Technique," which concealed his chakra, thus reducing the range that Minato could detect. Therefore, even Minato was unaware of Onoki's lingering at the time.

Minato was somewhat surprised to hear that the priestess of the Land of Demons could sense this matter.

The last "divine" element beside Akaishi was light...

However, Minato didn't ask any more questions... including why Miroku was there, he just pretended not to see it!

After the five of them left Yanpan Village, to be on the safe side, they headed east and left through the mountainous border of Tianzhi Kingdom.

Under Captain Akaishi's leadership, they naturally traveled through the night until March 31st, when they stopped to rest and recuperate...

The battle on the other side of Kannabi Bridge will begin in the early hours of the next morning!

Minato can only leave behind a limited number of "Flying Thunder God Techniques," but he still gave Sarutobi Shinnosuke a Flying Thunder God Kunai as well.

If things go wrong over there, Minato will "fly" over with Akaishi and Jiraiya...

"There's a high chance there won't be any problems. We've already seen that the Iwa ninja are on guard towards the Land of Earth," Jiraiya reassured everyone.

Indeed, before heading into the mountains, Akaishi and his group had gathered information within the Land of Earth, and it seemed that their efforts near the Land of Earth were very successful.

At this point, Iwagakure would have to support the Earth Capital—even if Onoki and the others suspected that the Akaishi squad had not continued their attack on the Earth Capital and might have already left, they dared not gamble on it…

After all, this is a gamble not only on probability, but also on the trust and attitude of the Land of Earth's daimyo towards Iwagakure.

This happened...

The rock camp was destroyed, the guardian ninja was killed, and even Onoki himself, who rushed to the scene, was suspected of being defeated.

If reinforcements are not sent to the Land of Earth, and instead troops are unilaterally transferred elsewhere, what will the Daimyo of the Land of Earth think?

Even though Onoki and the Daimyo of the Land of Earth had a good relationship and a certain understanding, they couldn't withstand this test!

Moreover, even disregarding the attitude of the Daimyo of the Land of Earth and guessing the purpose of the Akaishi Squad in the Land of Earth... Onoki probably didn't want to continue fighting in the direction of Kannabi Bridge.

Otherwise, even if they win this battle, they will face an escalation of the war in Konoha.

Having been frightened by Akaishi, Onoki's desire for peace surged—fearing that if things continued this way, Konoha would fall under the control of the war faction led by the Uchiha...

Under such circumstances, how could they possibly escalate the conflict and continue to expand it in the direction of Kannabi Bridge?

It's true that Konoha doesn't want the war to continue...

However, Onoki only wanted to stall Konoha "without expending too much effort" and "at low cost," ideally until Kumogakure declared war on Konoha, so that Konoha would never be able to catch its breath.

However, he had no intention of actually sacrificing his life savings and doing all the work for the benefit of the Hidden Cloud Village!

He had even planned to cease hostilities with Konoha and even form an alliance when Kumogakure took action.

Because he had to be prepared to be "carried away" by Minato at any moment, Akaishi did not undergo immersion this time...

It just so happens that Akaishi had already immersed himself in a drama before!

The endings are all the same.

In the end, thanks to his integrity and quality assurance, Boss Hong secured more orders, while the ungrateful Nanshan Village suffered huge losses.

Aunt Zhao, who instigated the disturbance, was also held accountable and sued for compensation, and eventually went to jail.

This can be considered one of the "standard endings"!

At this point, Akaishi dared not immerse himself too deeply, but he still... immersed himself in it only slightly, relying solely on the "hypothalamus".

For Akaishi, this level of immersion was now no different from sleeping.

The effect is no longer very good!

For those whose chakra transformation has generally reached 60% and a few have reached 70%, simply storing it in the hypothalamus provides far too little stimulation.

However, Akaishi isn't aiming for improvement right now; he's simply trying to familiarize himself with the plot and understand the characters' mindsets...

"Look everyone, tilapia in town are already seven yuan and eighty cents, but Hongyan has hired six fish trucks to come back to his village and get a bargain... He's only giving us seven yuan!"

"It's more than just seven yuan and eighty cents! A cold wave is coming, there are fewer and fewer fish outside, and the price of fish is rising day by day..."

Akaishi now felt a sense of familiarity when he saw the old rascal who was leading the trouble.

Sure enough, it was tilapia this time.

"I'll buy any fish weighing over 1.2 jin (0.6 kg), at seven yuan per jin. Any damage to the fish after loading them onto the truck is on me, and the payment will be settled on the spot." Hong Yan said decisively, "as always."

"Seven dollars? You're dreaming!"

"That's right, a cold wave is coming. Today it's 7.8 yuan, tomorrow it's 8.5 yuan, and the day after tomorrow, when no one goes fishing, it might be 10 yuan!"

"A difference of three yuan per jin (0.5 kg), if one pond yields 10,000 jin, that's 300,000 yuan; ten ponds would be 30 million yuan!"

"Hey Hong, do you dare say this fish won't go up to ten yuan?"

Facing the great mathematician and the great prophet, Hong Yan calmly said, "Yes, it's possible that the price will rise to ten yuan, but if the cold wave really comes, whether everyone's ponds can hold up, or if there are ice, road problems and road closures, then the price of these fish will not be the same as that of live fish... My seven yuan is what everyone can get by weighing them now. If you want to try your luck at the ten yuan price, that's your business. I have no right to stop you. I'm just giving you this seven yuan option."

……

After a series of games that seemed strangely familiar to Chishi, Hongyan only received fish from two households in his "own village".

The old farmer selling fish was naturally ridiculed and mocked by others.

However, the two were getting old, and firstly, they didn't want to worry about it; secondly, they were in a hurry to get the money and didn't want to take any risks; and thirdly, they had seen it and knew that this market was not a good place to gamble!

"That old black guy is such a coward! Selling it for seven dollars? He'll be kicking himself tomorrow!"

"Fugui, can this fish really go for ten yuan?"

"Just you wait! It'll be more than ten yuan. It's gotten cold so fast this year, I think it'll reach fifteen. Your family's 30,000 jin of fish will be worth 450,000 yuan then!"

"My goodness... after paying back the feed costs, I'll still be able to earn this much!"

"We're in the farming business just to make a profit from market trends, right? We can't let Hong Yan get away with this now."

"But don't forget, during the cold wave six years ago..."

"Come on! My family has 200,000 catties of fish and we're not afraid of anything, what are you worried about?"

"Wang Fugui! Don't just tell everyone about the profits... The county has already issued a warning; the temperature is going to drop sharply tonight. Make sure the fishponds are well-oxygenated, or we'll all lose everything!"

"We understand, village chief. It's not like we're new to raising fish."

"Exactly, at worst we won't sleep tonight, we'll just stay on the bank and watch..."

Before leaving, Hong Yan heard those familiar words again.

But just then...

"Akaashi!"

"Um?"

Gollum-

vomit--

Akaishi was awakened immediately, then Minato grabbed his hand, and the next moment...

A feeling of drowning washed over me!

It was even more painful for Akaishi than when he had drowned at Hikaru's place.

Ok?

The familiar feeling also triggered Akaishi's memories...

hiss--

Akaishi suddenly touched his lips.

Last time with the Uzumaki clan, after I drowned, I felt something on my lips...

Akashi suddenly remembered that Lan Wuqi had been extremely rude to him for several days back then—at the time, Akashi thought she felt that her drowning had delayed the mission evaluation.

"Eh? Could it be... Minato, you still remember back in the Uzumaki clan days...?"

……

Meanwhile, at the "Smashing Sand Camp", the Konoha ninja guarding the Kannabi Bridge, along with the small team that had previously infiltrated the Land of Earth, launched a pincer attack on the "Smashing Sand Camp"!

The situation wasn't actually that dangerous...

However, due to the appearance of the two Jinchūriki, the aftershocks almost killed an overconfident young female ninja, so Shinnosuke activated Minato's Flying Thunder God Kunai.

Then both sides saw...

After Minato appeared, he immediately saved the female ninja with zero frames, causing a heart to flicker in her eyes, not to mention...

vomit--

Akaishi, who appeared with Minato, was still helping Shinnosuke dry heave!

Then, this "fan-wielding man" straightened up, touched his lips, revealed a "perverted smile," and went to talk to his teammates...

"Hey kid! What are you looking at?"

The Iwa ninja nearby couldn't resist any longer. He leaped up, his arms wrapped in "Iwa Fist," and slammed down at Akaishi...

"Wait! He is..." Old Zi realized something at this moment and tried to stop him.

but……

With a casual flick of his wrist, even though he was still a little dizzy, Akashi easily killed the Iwa ninja Jonin!
