I'm drawing manga in Naruto

The next day, Xiao Qingyue brought Erbai home, and Chiyu wrote down the ninja beast taming techniques he had obtained and gave them to her.

However, he couldn't be with his sister today, who hadn't been home for a long time.

The secret service has sent a message.

It's probably related to that ninja from the Hozuki clan. Over the past two days, the Yamanaka clan should have cooperated with the Anbu to interrogate him and uncover some secrets.

However, when Akabane arrived at the Anbu, he found that Hozuki Ryoma was still asleep, which was definitely not the state in which he had confessed or obtained anything from the interrogation.

Moreover, the Third Hokage, Danzo, Uchiha Genkai, and the head of the Yamanaka clan are all here.

"Hokage-sama, teacher..."

"No need for formalities, business is more important. Akabane, I hope you and Genkai Uesugi will use your hypnotic abilities to guide his subconscious, while the Sealing Class will assist in breaking any information seals that may exist in his mind."

Danzo said directly.

"no problem."

Hypnosis is part of illusion, and Akabane's method of inducing it is very convenient—summon the dream-baku and have it help create and guide dreams as Akabane instructed.

Seeing so many people, Zhimeng knew the matter was important, so she obediently helped Akabane and Uchiha Genkai guide Hozuki Ryoma's subconscious and relax his resistance to the external forces.

In fact, the Dark Side had already cracked part of it; for example, Akabane's Flying Thunder God technique was exposed in this way.

However, they couldn't uncover any deeper information, and forcibly reading it might cause Hozuki Ryoma's immediate death, which was not what Danzo wanted to see.

After a series of discussions, the current situation came to be.

A few minutes later, with the combined assistance and guidance of Akabane, Baku, and Uchiha Genkai's Mangekyou Sharingan, Hozuki Ryoma finally relaxed his instinctive vigilance, and the information seal in his mind was released by the sealing team.

Then, the mountain chieftain accessed all of his memories.

"They are a three-person team, one of whom is armed with Kiba, a chakra weapon meticulously crafted by Kirigakure. However, their objective is not assassination, but to paralyze and knock Akabane unconscious with lightning release and take him to the Land of Water."

"The chieftain of the mountain tribe said."

"what?"

Akabane was a little confused; it seemed the goal wasn't to kill, but to capture him alive.

"The reason is... well, this is something Hozuki Ryoma heard secondhand, and he doesn't know if it's true or not. The reason is that the Daimyo read the manga and thought that Devil Fruits really exist in the world, while the Mizukage believed that Akabane knew many secrets of Konoha and that capturing him would give them a lot of information about Konoha. So the two sides hit it off and dispatched an assassination squad."

The chieftain of the mountain tribe probably found it absurd, so he paused for a few seconds halfway through his speech.

Akabane remained silent for a few seconds.

Let's forget about the Daimyo of the Land of Water; he's probably out of his mind. But the Mizukage's motives seem a bit strange, unlike Hozuki Ryoshin's simple-minded approach.

Chapter 250 Open the door, it's a delivery guy!

Could it be Black Zetsu?

Akabane pondered silently.

Ever since Mito Uzumaki suspected that there was a mastermind behind the Uzushio Village incident, he has been paranoid, and he tends to suspect anyone who seems suspicious.

He pondered for a long time.

We cannot exclude Black Zetsu and Madara; their abilities and wisdom are sufficient to accomplish this.

After a moment of contemplation, the Third Hokage said, "Dispatch ninjas to seal off the border, and assemble a reconnaissance team to conduct a wide-ranging search for the enemy's location, using the location provided by Hozuki Ryoma as the center."

"I will personally lead the team, and everyone will conduct a thorough search, paying attention to concealment."

Danzo said coldly.

Even though two days have passed, since it was a mission personally issued by the Mizukage, the other party would not give up so easily.

"Yes!"

The ANBU ninjas were immediately dispatched.

"Sir, I would also like to participate in this manhunt."

Akabane volunteered.

Eliminating hidden dangers is one aspect. In addition, this chakra weapon called "Fang" must be the weapon of the future Kurosuki Raiga. Although its current owner is not called Kurosuki Raiga, he is also a member of the Kurosuki family.

It may not be perfect or powerful right now, but that's not a problem.

Konoha has many ninja craftsmen who can create chakra weapons; what they lack is the materials to make chakra weapons, not the technology.

Once you acquire "teeth," you can completely transform them into the form you need.

There's no reason not to eat meat that's offered to you.

Danzo glanced at him, nodded slightly, and said, "Be careful."

"Don't be a show-off, kid. If you encounter danger, use Flying Thunder God to escape."

The third generation said, smoking a cigarette.

Flying Thunder God?

Uchiha Genkai looked strange, somewhat surprised.

This technique...

This technique seems to be mentioned in some scattered records within the clan about the Madara era. Although there isn't much information about it, it's certain that this was a powerful ninjutsu developed by the Second Hokage.

It seems that the Second Hokage did not master the ninjutsu of the Third Hokage.

What an amazing talent!

Uchiha Genkai reflected on his own efforts over the past period, exhausting all his knowledge in his research to develop a technique similar to the "cursed seal" that could leave a mark on others, yet he had no clue whatsoever.

So sad.

He felt a bitter taste in his mouth, and after thinking for a long time, he did not ask the guards to participate in the search.

The enemy was, after all, a Jonin from Kirigakure, while the guards were generally Chunin. Participating in this kind of battle would be suicide. Besides, if the Third Hokage really wanted them to participate, he would have given the order just now.

"Teacher, should I take you directly to the preparatory department?"

"Flying Thunder God? I'd like to try out the Flying Thunder God too."

Danzo nodded, looking quite amused.

The Flying Thunder God Slash was invented by the second generation, but he never experienced what it felt like to use it.

Three generations were not involved.

Konoha needs someone to stay behind, especially since Danzo is in charge of the pursuit, so what would he be doing there?

Akabane didn't hesitate. He grabbed Danzo's hand and immediately formed hand seals to unleash the Flying Thunder God Technique—he had left a mark in the preparatory department, which allowed him to fly directly there.

In the blink of an eye.

The two quickly turned their gazes and arrived at the location of the reserve headquarters.

Danzo's face was slightly pale, but he quickly concealed it. He stood leaning against a tree for a while before saying, "Akaba, go and search the target location first. Be careful to hide yourself. They have definitely moved from their original location, but they can see what happened in the old place from where they moved."

This is a technique commonly used by ninjas.

Move to a location where you can observe the original position to determine if the missing teammate betrayed you.

Akabane nodded, then used Body Flicker Technique to speed away.

At this moment, Danzo's face turned deathly pale, and after retching a few times, he leaned against a tree to rest.

Not everyone can get used to spatial transitions.

Akabane left the preparatory department and quickly headed to his destination. Although he hadn't developed a special skill in speed, the increased speed brought by his strong physique still made him run much faster.

Getting from the preparatory department to that place didn't take much effort at all.

To avoid being exposed, Akabane used a transformation technique to turn into a small animal and circled around the target location without directly entering it.

The Uzumaki clan's sensory abilities are very useful. Although Akabane doesn't have Kagura's Mind's Eye, it wasn't long before he sensed Kurosuki Kazusa's chakra fluctuations.

It's far from here, but it must be on a high mountain. From that vantage point, it wouldn't be hard to see what's happening here.

"Just as the teacher said."

Akabane took a deep breath, pondered for a moment, and then quietly headed up the mountain.

The other party probably hadn't noticed him and showed no signs of taking any action, giving him ample time to infiltrate and get closer.

However, it is indeed a bit of a stretch for a rabbit to run from the foot of the mountain to the top.

He walked for a while.

After hiding in the dense forest, they quickly used earth magic to travel.

After crossing the jungle to the foot of the mountain, Akabane no longer dared to use Earth Escape Technique and instead used Transformation Technique to travel from the foot of the mountain all the way up to the top.

Kurozuki Kazuzawa's position was getting closer and closer, and he could already sense the other's chakra aura.

An extremely volatile aura!

Clearly, the opponent does fit the characteristics of a lightning blade, and is a Kirigakure ninja proficient in both lightning and water release techniques.

Aside from him, there is no information on the other ninja—Hozuki Ryoma's memories contain no specific information about this person, but some clues from his memories suggest that he was a Jonin, and it cannot be ruled out that he was a bloodline limit user from the Land of Water.

In the present-day Land of Water, neither the Minazuki nor the Kaguya clan has been wiped out; they remain strong and continue to contribute to Kirigakure.

Akabane was outside pondering tactics and finalizing a plan.

First, take care of Black Hoecho Hill and get his equipment, then consider whether to deal with the remaining person.

If he's really difficult to deal with, he can still run away. Anyway, with the Flying Thunder God Technique in hand, he can go anywhere in the world.

With that thought in mind, Akabane left a spell mark on the spot.

Then, while still in his transformed state, he continued to lurk inside.

But the next second.

A splash of water erupted, instantly transforming into a shower of ice needles.

Thousand Kill Water Fly!

Akabane became alert and instantly used Earth Release to hide, but just as he emerged from the earth, a bolt of lightning suddenly appeared.

After quickly jumping away, a figure appeared not far in front of him.

The one wielding two swords is likely Kurochu Qiuze.

Not far away, a ninja stood on a tree; he was likely a bloodline limit user of the Mizuki clan.

"Hmph, a mouse has sneaked up to the side. Let me see who it is!"

"The mission objective has been delivered to our doorstep."

The ninja, Mizuki, spoke calmly, then surveyed his surroundings to prevent Akabane's shadow clone from deceiving him while his true self secretly cast an illusion.

Then, ice needles flew everywhere.

Akabane's lips curled slightly as he dodged the ice needles, his hands forming a hand seal...

Kirigakure no Jutsu!

"Oh~ You even know our Kirigakure ninjutsu, that's pretty good."

Kurozuki Okaze swung his twin swords, gathering chakra, and unleashed a bolt of lightning directly at Akabane's head.

Moving through the fog is far too easy for the Hidden Mist Ninja.

However, thanks to the Hidden Mist Technique, Akabane achieved his goal.

Mangekyou Sharingan, awaken!

Illusion becomes reality.

The Flying Thunder God mark appeared on the ground behind Kurosuki Kazuzawa. Kurosuki Kazuzawa sensed something was wrong, but by the time he reacted, Akabane had already appeared behind him.

A hand brushed across his legs, and he immediately felt a sharp pain.

The muscles in both legs were severed.

next second...

boom!

Superhuman strength, charging wildly.
