I have a bunch of relatives who want to become Hokage.

Under Uchiha Shingen's control, this Kirigakure ninja confessed everything.

The first piece of bad news is that Suigetsu Hobutsu was nerfed last month.

Okay, now the money's gone, what a wasted trip.

Perhaps it wasn't a wasted trip, because the second piece of news was quite explosive.

These Mist Ninja are planning to ambush their old enemy, Pakura, a Sunagakure ninja known for her scorching style.

This was also a deal between Sunagakure and Kirigakure. As for the details of the deal, the Kirigakure ninja didn't know, only that Sunagakure sent Pakura over for them to kill.

Uchiha Shingen frowned, snapped the other's neck, gently set him aside, and began to recall.

Unlike Gundam, which he still remembers even after playing through it twice, his memories of Pakura, a Sand Village ninja, are really blurry.

All I remember is that she was betrayed by the Sand Village's higher-ups because of the Sand Village's interests.

It sounds absurd, but it's quite normal in the ninja profession.

In the era of one country and one village, ninjas or ninja clans with bloodline limits seemed to be burdened by some kind of curse, and were targeted in various ways, resulting in a much faster rate of attrition than in the Warring States period.

In the original timeline, the Uchiha clan was wiped out by the Hokage Building.

This situation is not unique to Sunagakure and Konoha.

In the future, the Kirigakure bloodline clans will be wiped out one by one by the Kirigakure ninjas. Although Obito Uchiha was involved in the trouble, the Kirigakure ninjas seemed to be very happy when they did it.

As for the Scorching Release technique, it's not used by ninja clans in Sunagakure; it seems that apart from Pakura, no one else knows it.

She is definitely one of the most valuable combat forces in the hands of Sunagakure.

What kind of benefits could be so great that Sunagakure would hand over their precious fighting force to Kirigakure to kill?

I don't understand at all.

Uchiha Shingen decided to check first; if it really was Pakura who was coming, he might as well save her.

The Sand Village doesn't want it, but the Konoha Police Department can.

The clansmen will give him face. Yekura is no weakling. In the Fourth Shinobi World War, anyone who could jump out of their coffin and fight was no pushover.

It's decided, I'll snatch it away!

I refuse to believe that even if the village sells everything, Yecang will still be willing to go back.

Uchiha Shingen squatted down again on the cliff and watched the show with his Sharingan.

Before long, someone came from the other end of the valley.

She was a woman dressed in flamboyant attire.

What's most eye-catching are the ample breasts on her chest. Looking down, you see a pair of long, shapely legs, a slim waist, and a pert bottom. Her hair color is rather unconventional. She's a beautiful woman with an exotic flair, a straight nose, and a cold gaze.

That look in his eyes is quite professional.

However, when it comes to sheer power, Tsunade is the one to look at.

Tsunade's figure is truly exaggerated; she looks so different from when she was a child.

While Uchiha Shingen and Shagil were lost in thought, the Kirigakure captain had already concealed his killing intent and stepped forward with a smile.

"Excuse me, are you Lord Yecang?"

"Hello." The woman nodded. "I am Ye Cang."

Yekura glanced at the approaching Mist Ninja and then dismissed them.

She'd killed countless weaklings like that; they posed no threat whatsoever.

"I've come to greet you. The fog here is very thick, and there are traps hidden in it." The Mist Ninja Captain looked dutiful. "Please stay close to me."

"You're too kind." Considering that she was representing Sunagakure to establish friendly relations with Kirigakure, Yekura, though not particularly respectful of the Kirigakure ninja before her, still put on a gentle smile.

She walked toward the Kirigakure captain who had already turned around.

However, she didn't see the hatred in the eyes of the Mist Ninja Captain after he turned around.

Therefore, she was stabbed as soon as she walked alongside this Mist Ninja.

The majority of the village's Kirigakure ninja grew up under the Third Mizukage's de facto policy of the Blood Mist. They might not be good at other things, but when it comes to suddenly drawing their swords and launching sneak attacks, they are the strongest in the ninja world.

As soon as the incident occurred, Yekura realized something was wrong, but the timing of the Kirigakure captain's attack was too perfect, and Yekura was still stabbed.

The kunai was inserted into her body, not deeply, but it successfully caused injury.

"You'll taste the pain your comrades suffered when they were slaughtered!"

The Mist Ninja captain quickly retreated; he didn't want to take Pakura's Scorching Release head-on.

His action was a signal; immediately, a dense barrage of shurikens shot out from the other half of the cliff.

The Mist Ninja captain was initially delighted, but then he was taken aback.

Why is there only half? Where is the other half?

Even if it's only half, it'll be enough for Yekura to handle.

This ninja captain had poison coated on his kunai.

Although Sunagakure is also an experienced poison user, unfortunately, Pakura doesn't use poison, and the poison prepared for her by the Kirigakure captain was specially made, the kind that can't be dealt with in a short time.

The poison slowed her nerves, and although she tried her best to dodge, she was still hit by at least a dozen shots in the back.

Not a single one was without added ingredients.

She collapsed to the ground with a thud, her body paralyzed.

It is foreseeable that, barring any exceptions, losing her head will be her only fate.

The Mist Ninja captain smiled. Although the other half of the group didn't know why they hadn't launched an attack in time, Pakura had already been hit, and her great revenge had been achieved.

He was so excited he almost roared to the sky.

Unfortunately, he was too happy too soon.

The enormous fireball illuminated his face, flew over his head, and slammed straight into the cliff, instantly blasting several Mist Ninja away.

Before the Mist Ninja Captain could make a move, a figure came rushing in, picked up Pakura, and ran.

Chapter 44 The Unorthodox Scorching Release Ninja

On Earth, all ball games have a unified standard for ball size.

This will make the competition easier.

Otherwise, the ball size will be different each time, which will greatly affect your performance.

Having been slapped in the face more than once, Uchiha Shingen genuinely felt this way at that moment.

I carried her in the wrong position. I carried so many girls on my first playthrough and I never encountered this.

Female ninjas in the Warring States period were very strict about controlling their figures!

So why did the vast majority of female colleagues lose confidence in their children's rights after the implementation of the "one country, one village" system?

Is it because everyone is striving for a better standard of living? Or is it because the wider range of potential partners has caused genetic mutations?

Tsunade went from having nothing to having everything without getting married. Is this a qualitative change resulting from quantitative change after achieving a comfortable standard of living?

This question was so profound that Uchiha Shingen decided not to delve into it.

Let's just let things take their course.

After blasting away the Mist Ninja who popped up on the opposite cliff with a powerful fireball, Uchiha Shingen successfully carried Pakura on his back with the "Flying Thunder God Corpse Pickup Technique," and quickly moved forward with a Body Flicker and another Flying Thunder God.

Kill as few people as possible who are not involved in the mission.

Moreover, the fishpond in Kirigakure is very precious to Uchiha Shingen; it needs to be sustainable and the fish fry protected.

The gasps of the Mist Ninja were fleeting in his ears; from then on, all the obstacles came from Pakura.

After repeatedly slapping himself in the face, Uchiha Shingen left the valley where Kirigakure was located and ran far away.

The Flying Thunder God couldn't stop the two balls from freefalling and swaying; they were even fighting each other! This shows that the power of nature is truly limitless.

Therefore, Uchiha Shingen had to change his position halfway through the flight.

That's much more comfortable.

Uchiha Shingen eventually moved to a relatively dry cave, which he had specifically heated with fire release when he set up the Flying Thunder God Seal.

So that it can be used for temporary rest.

As for wild animals, don't be ridiculous. There are no animal protection laws in the Naruto world, but eliminating wild animals is one of the low-level missions for Chunin.

Back in the cave, they placed the still unconscious Yekura on a pile of hay. After checking her over, they confirmed that she had been poisoned. So they first gave her a bottle of the universal antidote developed by the Nara clan to keep her alive. Then, Uchiha Shingen got up, took out a sealing scroll, and retrieved equipment such as tents from it.

After he finished getting everything sorted out, Yekura next to him looked much better.

The poison from Kirigakure is really weak; for poison, you should look to Sunagakure.

The only one who could suppress Sunagakure with poison was Hanzo of Amegakure.

Yekura was still asleep when Uchiha Shingen squatted down next to her.

Although he was kept in a daze, the medication was probably not suitable enough, so the poison was not truly neutralized.

That's alright, she can untie it herself when she wakes up.

After thinking it over, Uchiha Shingen decided to clean himself up first.

He tripped and fell flat on his face, getting covered in mud, including half of his shoulder.

Despite his appearance, he is very clean.

Uchiha Shingen had his reasons for choosing this cave: firstly, it was well-hidden, and secondly, the space inside was quite good; after drying off, he could even take a bath in the hollows inside.

After gathering some firewood and lighting a fire, Uchiha Shingen went inside to take a bath.

Fire Release and Water Release are excellent escape techniques that can be used in both combat and daily life.

After finishing, Uchiha Shingen washed the mud off his clothes with water, dried them with fire jutsu, put them back on, and returned to his tent.

Yekura's breathing is steady.

"Hey, wake up!" Uchiha Shingen shouted.
