Naruto: I am Ninja World Ghost Story, who are you?

"To think he could hurt me, he's quite a ninja. It's a pity he followed the wrong person."

Hatake Saigumo said with a serious expression, "That person is far too dangerous. He only needs to injure himself from a distance to inflict the same damage on the target he's locking onto..."

"Hahahaha—" Dark Pillar patted Hatake Sagumo on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I'll recover from this injury in less than a second."

"Besides, if the other party could inflict fatal wounds, they wouldn't just stab the arms, thighs, and abdomen."

Hatake Saiko scratched his head: "I'm scared..."

"Hahaha—" Dark Pillar laughed heartily again, then his expression turned serious: "Now I can tell you about the current situation in the Dark Realm."

"Currently, there are five major ninja villages in the Dark Realm: Dark Leaf Village, Dark Cloud Village, Dark Rock Village, Dark Mist Village, and Dark Sand Village."

After listening, Hatake Sakumo and Nara Yoyu couldn't help but nod.

It's practically no different from the ninja world.

But the next second, Anzhu's words surprised the two of them.

"Now, of the five leaders, only I, Dark Earth, and Dark Water remain as guardians of the Dark Realm; the other two have already betrayed us."

"What!" Hatake Sagumo was very surprised. After witnessing the strength of the Dark Pillar, he couldn't help but worry whether the other Dark Villages were just as powerful.

"Why is that? Was it 'devoured' by the Dark Immortal?" Nara Yoyu couldn't help but ask.

Upon hearing this, Dark Pillar's face showed a hint of surprise: "You're quite clever. Dark Wind is just like that. All five of us guardians possess telepathy and can sense each other's general situation."

"Dark Wind was one of the first guardians to lose his 'mind' due to excessive power consumption."

"As for Dark Thunder... he was murdered and should now be replaced by a new person. That person is definitely not like us, working together to maintain order and peace in the Dark Realm."

Anju sighed slightly, then looked at the Anyu clan ninja who had come to report: "How is it?"

The ninja from Anyu nodded: "As Lord Anju said, the 'power' of the White Mist Forest has been completely exhausted by that group of people. It is very safe today, and there was no attack from the 'Wooden Man'."

"Very good, continue to protect Darkleaf Village."

"Yes!"

After the battle, Hatake Sakumo planned to use his summoning technique again to have Puck carry some food and a scroll for recording, thus giving them a chance to survive and conveying their current situation.

......

"Psychic art!"

Bang!

Parker felt miserable, having become a supply delivery point: "Zoyun has received the supplies and written down what's happening inside."

"Thank you, Puck!" Kakashi patted Puck's head, took the scroll from its back, and unsealed it.

Kakashi's pupils dilated in shock after just a few glances.

"Second Generation Lord, look!"

"There really is another world inside the mist! And that world is actually quite similar to the ninja world."

Upon hearing this, Tobirama Senju's interest was piqued, and he began to peruse the scroll.

Upon seeing that the leader of Dark Leaf Village was actually a 'Wood Release' ninja, he couldn't help but be surprised. At the same time, he also noticed something: none of the ninjas in that dark world were below the level of a Jonin.

Secondly, that world possesses a power called 'Dark Power', which can interfere with a person's mind. If too much is inhaled, it will lead to uncontrollable consequences.

“Terrifying… ‘Darkness’ can be in the form of mist, air, or even light… If this power were to appear in the ninja world…” Tobirama Senju dared not even imagine what the ninja world would become.

"Quick! Pass this message on to all the Kage. If we need to send out support next time, they must be Jonin-level ninjas with unwavering conviction. Otherwise, they will just become the Dark Sage's ally."

"Yes!"

Intelligence began to be passed on one by one.

There were many representatives from various countries present. Those who did not send ninjas included Orochimaru, the representative of Otogakure, and Konan, the representative of Amegakure. Those who sent a Jonin included the leaders of Kusagakure and Takigakure.

The other four Kage couldn't help but shrink their pupils when they saw this information.

"So...the people we sent out...are most likely all dead? Ouch! My back hurts." Onoki felt his back ache from anger while reviewing documents in mid-air, and a Jonin immediately stepped forward to catch him.

"Damn it! If that's the case, almost no one will survive except for Yagura Karatachi, who is currently in a relatively stable emotional state." Mei Terumi said through gritted teeth as she sat in her chair.

"Ugh! Damn it! If I had known they were looking for a Jonin with a stable temper, I wouldn't have sent Tai! This is infuriating!" The Fourth Raikage, A, couldn't help but smash the table in front of him. The two Cloud Village guards next to him exchanged a glance, shrugged, and began to move the broken table away and replace it with a new one.

“…Maki.” Rasa was somewhat worried, but thankfully Maki’s personality was relatively stable, so he should be 'no problem'. The strange thing was, Maki hadn’t used his summoning technique to transmit any information yet…

On the other side, Orochimaru and Konan showed different expressions upon seeing the information: one was "just as I expected," and the other was "horrified."

Orochimaru believed that if mist could kill, it must be poisonous and could interfere with people's thinking. Therefore, apart from the experimental subjects, he was unwilling to send out any of his Jonin-level subordinates. However, the experimental subjects clearly had weak mental strength.

Xiao Nan was stunned when she saw that the location of the appearance was random, and her pupils shrank even more when she saw that the food from the Dark Realm could not be consumed.

'It's spicy!'

'The food and supplies are all with 'Fake Spot'!!'

'Even if Hanzo and Kakuzu manage to survive the White Mist Forest...'

......

Dark world.

Dark Sand Village.

Inside a prison cell, two Jonin from Sunagakure were being held.

"What, still not going to eat a single bite?"

"Yes, Lord Darkwind."

Anfeng bypassed the guards watching over the prison and came to the iron pillars of the prison. He looked at Maki, who was covered in wounds, and a Sand Village Jonin, who were tied to two wooden crosses in front of him.

"What, this is power."

"How can you become one of us if you don't eat us?"

"Pah!" Maki spat out a mouthful of saliva, but before it could even get close, it was torn apart in mid-air by the wind force surrounding him.

"Tsk tsk tsk." Anfeng shook his head and picked up a scorching hot iron whip: "Don't make me resort to violence. If it weren't for the fact that the 'Dark Sage' needed more assistants to break through the other Dark Ninja Villages, I wouldn't have spared you."

"Hmph!" Maki gasped for breath, his body covered in wounds.

“If you don’t take this power, it will be very difficult for me to force you to take it.”

"Because this power needs to be accepted from the heart in order to gain even greater power."

"Otherwise, we'd be no different from the people outside."

Anfeng gave a cold laugh and pointed outside the prison.

“Those people outside? Could it be…” Maki couldn’t help but feel a little desperate.

"Yes."

"The six outside should be ninjas from the Realm of Light, just like you."

But now they've become one of us, and we call them all "Dark Infestors," far inferior to the codenamed "Dark Walkers."

Snapped!

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

"Be a good boy/girl, take the medicine willingly, enjoy the 'delicious food', and gain 'power'."

Snapped!

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

"Only in this way can you truly become one of us."

Anfeng's lips curled up wildly, a hint of madness in his expression.

Chapter 71 Kakuzu finally realizes something is wrong (Seeking monthly votes~)

Inside the prison.

After less than two hours, Anfeng used various methods to torture the two, but still couldn't get Maki to agree. However, another Sand Village Jonin couldn't hold back any longer.

"Give it to me! Give it to me! I don't want to be tortured anymore."

"That's more like it." Anfeng nodded slightly and handed the big chicken leg in his hand to the Sand Village Jonin. The Sand Village Jonin opened his mouth and took a bite immediately. After a few bites, he even broke the bone and swallowed it directly. Anfeng felt a little hungry just watching him.

"delicious!"

"I want power, I want power."

"Ahhhh-"

The Sand Village Jonin's body began to swell, and a voice that he 'felt' was very gentle rang in his ears.

"My child, my child."

"Accept my power and become stronger!"

"Thank you, father!"

The Sand Village Jonin immediately called him "father," and in an instant, endless black energy was absorbed into him. The chakra chains binding him were shattered, and his body grew taller and stronger. The expansion of his muscles gave the Sand Village Jonin a sense of confidence and pride.

"Your code name."

"The Wind Walker in the Dark".

"Yes!"

Without needing to form hand seals, endless wind force generated around the Sand Village Jonin, making him even more smug. Then, he was filled with endless malice, wanting to kill this Dark Wind who controlled the Dark Sand Village.

"Lord Darkwind, it seems I am stronger than you now."

Anfeng maintained his smile, and upon hearing this, tilted his head: "Give it a try?"

boom!

"Uh-huh!"

As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer.

The collision of the two wind forces and the resulting spray of wind blades made Maki feel like he was about to die.

"Just a moment."

“I’ll have a medical ninja treat your ‘comrade’ while we go out and fight.”

"Okay."

Before leaving the prison, the Sand Village Jonin turned around and looked at the pitiful Maki, then at his own recovered, three-meter-tall figure: "Lord Maki, I advise you to join the Dark World and become a part of 'Darkness' as soon as possible, instead of sticking to your so-called beliefs."

“I absolutely... absolutely will not join!” Maki said through gritted teeth.

"You don't know what's good for you." A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Sand Village Jonin. He was now a true Kage, and even if Rasa came, he could crush him like an ant.

After the Sand Village Jonin left, Maki felt even more desperate.

How much longer can I hold on?

'Lord Luosha...'

Subsequently, the Sand Village Jonin codenamed "Windwalker" arrived at a desert mixed with black mist in the outside world.

The opposite side is Dark Wind.

Dressed in white, he removed the straw hat that belonged to the person known as 'Dark Wind', put his hands behind his back, and looked at the Sand Village Jonin: "What was your original name?"

"Shinsuke."

"Yes. I don't have a name. I am Anfeng, who inherited the name of Ansha Village. Just call me Lord Anfeng."

Shinsuke gave a cold laugh: "It's still uncertain who will win or lose!"

As soon as he finished speaking, countless gusts of wind emerged from around Shinsuke's body. The rapidly spinning whirlwinds greatly enhanced his defense, speed, and attack power.

"Wind Release Chakra Mode!"

"Guardian of the Wind." Dark Wind smiled slightly, and the air around his body seemed to fluctuate, but not noticeably. If a mosquito were to get close, it would be instantly decomposed into nanoscale corpses.

With a 'bang', Shinsuke charged forward, his entire body transforming into a spinning attack like an excavator, crashing into a spot not far in front of Anfeng.

"Pretty capable, huh?"

"Wind Release: Roaring Thrust!"
