Ōnoki shouted as he pulled away.
Since the other party was able to take out the hem of Heitu's skirt before, it proves that the other party can actually be touched.
The reason they can't access it now is very likely because the method is wrong or the timing is wrong.
So even if it means using the dumbest methods to gradually find out the opponent's weaknesses, Onoki is willing to do it!
Afei's mischievous thoughts finally subsided a bit. It has to be said that being able to come up with a reasonably good solution in such a short time, Onoki, the Tsuchikage, really lived up to his reputation as the Tsuchikage.
However, just as the Iwagakure ninjas were following Onoki's orders and beginning to seamlessly connect their ninjutsu, Tobi suddenly threw out the letter written on the hem of Kurotsuchi's skirt.
Seeing that the skirt was about to be destroyed by ninjutsu, Huang Tu had no choice but to use Earth Release to stop his own ninjutsu, and then risked being caught in the crossfire to forcibly rescue the items.
Having achieved his goal, Afei used this time difference to begin a spacetime transfer.
"Whether you want that woman to live or not is up to you."
[Chapter 427. One wave subsides, another rises]
For Ah Fei, showing off and then running away was incredibly exciting.
However, this was not so friendly to Onoki and the remaining Iwagakure ninja.
It's like a lunatic suddenly barging into your house, slapping you repeatedly, and then making a face at you before leaving to annoy you.
You were getting beaten up the whole time, holding your breath, while the other side was completely unharmed, just walking away.
If it were someone with a worse temper, they would probably explode on the spot and spiral into the sky.
Ignoring her injuries, Huang Tu immediately began examining the message left on the hem of her skirt.
The content above is actually very simple: it means that Heitu has been kidnapped, and if they want to ransom him, they need to exchange twenty cursed items.
If it were just about money, Huang Tu wouldn't care at all.
Never underestimate a Jonin's earning power, especially since he has a father who is the Tsuchikage!
However, when it comes to cursed objects, even his father, the Tsuchikage, cannot act too recklessly. After all, how much value does the Tsuchikage's granddaughter have?
If things go too far, it's not impossible to replace that person in the position.
Despite Onoki's illustrious career and his long tenure as Tsuchikage, there are still many people in the village who are dissatisfied with him.
Otherwise, why would the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, Rōshi, dare to leave the village simply because of a 'personality clash' with the Tsuchikage?
Just as Huang Tu was worrying, Onoki snatched the skirt from his hand and examined it carefully.
Huang Tu noticed that his father's hands were clenched tightly, clearly showing his immense anger.
"Evil God Cult, what a evil god cult!"
Onoki practically forced those words out through gritted teeth.
"Father, what should we do? I'm worried about Heitu..."
"Didn't I tell you to call me Lord Tsuchikage when we're out here? What's the use of worrying? You're all a bunch of useless trash!"
After cursing furiously for a while, Onoki snorted coldly, said nothing, and left.
The loess soil remained silent.
It's hard to imagine that an old man who is stubborn, selfish, and cunning would have a 'foolish son' who believes in responsibility and teamwork and is willing to sacrifice for others!
Because of the stark contrast in their personalities, Onoki disliked them intensely until Kurotsuchi was born, which allowed him to rediscover the joy of raising a child.
Compared to his honest and simple son, Onoki was more delighted by his granddaughter, who was also somewhat cunning.
Then he kept him by his side and trained him as his successor.
If it weren't for the need to help Kurotsuchi grow to the point where she could stand on her own as quickly as possible, Onoki would never have agreed to let her lead the team alone.
Black Soil had always done a good job and had hardly made any major mistakes.
As a result, this first fall was a complete disaster, and it even revealed his true identity to the enemy.
Is it a pig's head?
. . . . . . . .
Just as the entire Hidden Stone Village was forced to mobilize, Mr. Enemy and his companions began to rapidly approach the border of the Hidden Stone Village.
However, there were some discrepancies between the plan and the initial one.
"Still no sign of Woody."
Shanhu took out a specially made lava cup and poured himself a cup of scalding hot lava... or perhaps brain matter? from the crater on his head, and began to taste it.
"Keep waiting."
Mr. Di thought for a moment and said that the other special-grade cursed spirits had no objections.
A short while later, Cybert, who had gone to investigate the situation, also returned.
"Something's up. Someone's causing a ruckus in Sunagakure. But unfortunately, it's not Woody; it seems to be a human."
"Humans?"
At this moment, the snow demon sneered, "It's not surprising. Humans are such contradictory creatures. They can kill each other because of power, status, money, women... or even any reason, even if they are their own kind, friends, or even relatives."
She wasn't without reason when she said that.
Don't forget, she comes from the Land of Snow.
The Land of Snow is such a tragedy.
"What do we do next? Are we just going to keep waiting for Woody to show up?" The real person seemed a little impatient to update his doll collection.
Mr. Di thought about it carefully, "Let's wait two more days. If Woody still doesn't show up after two days, then we'll follow the backup plan and force him to show up."
"What if he still doesn't show up?"
"Then let's win this bet fair and square, find him, and make him keep his promise. If he dares to say another word, even if it means getting seriously injured again, I will personally twist his head off."
A long-absent, chilling killing intent reappeared in Mr. Di's eyes.
The previous test only made him aware of the other party's strength and troublesome nature, but that didn't mean he was helpless against them.
If he's willing to pay the price, there's nothing he can't kill.
It's just a question of whether it's worth it or not.
Therefore, he hoped that the other party would be sensible in the end, otherwise he really didn't want to keep dragging this on.
His original plan was to use Woody as a vanguard, then secretly assist him, and ideally destroy the entire country in one fell swoop.
Then he could conveniently lose the bet, allowing the other party to take the lead and bear the enormous danger of a human counterattack, while he retreats behind the scenes to continue devising strategies.
If Woody can withstand the pressure and fulfill his leadership role, then he'll be happy to have some free time.
However, if Woody overestimates himself and suffers repeated defeats, then he can take the opportunity to regain his leadership position.
It can be said that he had his opponent completely outmaneuvered from the very beginning of this bet.
No matter the outcome, he wins!
It's just unexpected that something went wrong at this point; Woody hasn't shown up at all, which is very strange.
Did I see through his intentions?
But that's impossible. If you saw through his intentions, you shouldn't have agreed in the first place.
Or was it delayed due to some unforeseen event?
There were too many possibilities, and Mr. Di couldn't guess the real answer for a while.
Little did he know that Woody, driven by greed, wanted to capture a tailed beast as a mount, and nearly got hammered to death by Shinji.
He's probably hiding in some dark corner, recovering and healing!
It's unlikely that Woody will come out and draw fire.
unless...
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and Woody still hadn't shown up. Mr. Enemy wasn't going to wait any longer; he was going to take action.
However, because Woody wasn't there, he didn't try to take on the tough challenge of Iwagakure.
He dispersed his men, with each attacking a different location, attempting to distract humanity and create a situation where one side was unable to cover the other, as well as to lure Woody out.
[Chapter 428. Poor Afei]
Ah Fei is back, and he brings back some bad news.
"Huh? What did you say? They refused to pay the ransom and even kicked you out?"
Shinji looked surprised.
Even Kurotsuchi, upon hearing the news, broke from his lifeless state and revealed an expression of disbelief.
Her grandfather, the village's most powerful man, actually refused to save her?
That's absolutely impossible!
Could it be that these people made some incredibly harsh conditions?
No one paid attention to her change in expression. Afei began to describe, with exaggerated gestures and a dramatic tone, all the unfair treatment he had encountered after infiltrating Iwagakure.
Of course, he never mentioned the truth.
He simply said that the other party kept attacking him, forcing him to retaliate.
He finally met the Tsuchikage Onoki, but was almost killed. In the end, he managed to get a chance to talk to him by relying on his silver tongue and the 'token' in his hand.
However, the conversation was equally unpleasant.
The other side only told them to release the people, otherwise they would hunt them down to the ends of the earth and fight to the death.
Yes, although Onoki never said that, the meaning is pretty much the same.
"Since that old geezer said that, I was naturally very angry, so I said a few harsh words. Then they started to surround and kill me again, as if they didn't care about the woman's life or death at all. I had no choice but to slink back."
Ah Fei became more and more aggrieved as he spoke, and finally he simply squatted down in the corner and started sobbing.
Seeing this, Hidan felt that those bastards were really too hateful, how dare they bully Tobi!
