Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

Madara Uchiha said to Renya meaningfully.

He didn't want Lian Ye to make any wrong decisions in the last six months.

Otherwise he would really be very disappointed.

"Lord Madara, I will do my best to collect all the tailed beasts in the shortest amount of time!"

Lianye removed her white mask and solemnly promised.

Let's paint a rosy picture for Grandpa Ban first, and we'll see about the actual situation later.

You have to understand that sometimes plans can't keep up with changes.

Madara Uchiha gazed at Renya silently, and finally nodded in satisfaction.

"I hope so."

As long as this kid obediently collects the tailed beasts, he won't need to spend time searching for chess pieces.

"Next month, I want to see a tailed beast."

"understand!"

Chapter 450 Who else could it be but me?

In the following months, the jinchūriki of each village disappeared one after another.

First, Bunfuku, the Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed Beast from Sunagakure, mysteriously disappeared from his prison.

Initially, the Second Kazekage, Shamon, believed that Bunpuku was being controlled by Shukaku, and therefore left the prison without permission.

So they sent people to search, but they found nothing.

However, a month later, the Two-Tails Jinchuriki of Kumogakure also disappeared.

The high-ranking officials of Kumogakure immediately became furious.

The Hidden Cloud Village was already in dire straits enough by losing the Second Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, but now it has also lost its last tailed beast...

The higher-ups felt that the village had been set up.

Countless Cloud Village ninjas swarmed out to search the ninja world for the whereabouts of the Two-Tails Jinchuriki.

Unfortunately, nothing was gained.

A few months later, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki of Iwagakure also mysteriously disappeared.

Just like the leaders of Kumogakure, the leaders of Iwagakure felt as if the sky had fallen.

Tailed beasts are a powerful deterrent weapon for the village.

Without the tailed beasts, the village lost its powerful deterrent force.

The newly appointed Fourth Tsuchikage immediately gathered people to search for the Jinchūriki.

Live to see people, die to see corpses.

Several villages that possessed tailed beasts belatedly discovered that someone was deliberately capturing them!

In just six months, the Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed, the Two-Tailed, the Five-Tailed, and the Seven-Tailed all disappeared.

As for the Four-Tails Jinchuriki and Eight-Tails Jinchuriki who died on the battlefield, they are not considered.

According to the knowledgeable leader of Takigakure, a mysterious person wearing a white mask kidnapped the elderly Seven-Tails Jinchuriki of Takigakure.

It's worth mentioning that the mysterious person possessed a pair of Sharingan eyes!

The disappearance of Jinchuriki from other ninja villages is probably inextricably linked to that mysterious person!

Upon learning the news, the leaders of each village turned their attention to Konoha Village.

Perhaps this is the Hokage's conspiracy!

They secretly sent people to capture all the tailed beasts, thus depriving them of their powerful deterrent effect.

Other villages don't have tailed beasts; only Konoha Village possesses one.

What is this if not a monopoly?!

It seems that the Third Hokage of Konoha has extraordinary ambitions!

Currently, only the Three-Tails and Six-Tails in the ninja world have not been captured.

Yes, that's how it seems from the perspective of other villages.

However, the newly appointed Fourth Mizukage of Kirigakure knew perfectly well that their village only had the Six-Tails.

The Three-Tailed Fox disappeared several years ago.

The Third Mizukage once said that he was preparing to seal the Three-Tails inside a Jinchuriki, but then he disappeared without warning.

That kind of demeanor suggests that he was possessed by a spirit.

To this day, Kirigakure still has not discovered the whereabouts of the Three-Tails.

The reason I didn't tell anyone was simply because I was afraid of being ridiculed by people from other villages.

As one of the five great ninja villages, they can't even protect their own tailed beasts.

If others found out, I would be too ashamed to even lift my head.

Therefore, apart from the high-ranking officials of Kirigakure, no other ninja villages knew about the disappearance of the Three-Tails.

In the last war, all the Kage of the Mimura clan were killed by Renya.

The fog, rocks, and soil now seem to be in a similar predicament.

Iwagakure and Kumogakure are preparing to send people to Kirigakure to protect the personal safety of the Three-Tails Jinchuriki and the Six-Tails Jinchuriki around the clock.

In addition, they sent messengers to Konoha to demand an explanation.

What right do they have to secretly capture the tailed beast from their village?!

How is this any different from robbery?

You have to understand, this was bought for a huge price back then...

If they don't return the Tailed Beasts, then Konoha should refund the money!

Although Konoha is now the most powerful village in the ninja world, shouldn't we still act reasonably?

Konoha Village, Hokage's office.

"Lord Hokage, envoys from the five nations of Wind, Earth, Lightning, Water, and Waterfall request an audience..."

A member of the secret service responsible for negotiating with the envoy came to report.

Danzo Shimura's face darkened, and he did not respond immediately.

He was naturally aware of the major event of the successive disappearances of the village's pillars.

Moreover, he has already identified the culprit who secretly captured the Tailed Beasts.

Judging from the time when the Jinchuriki disappeared, wasn't that the time when Renya accepted the mission and left the village?

Every time Renya leaves, one Jinchuriki goes missing.

Danzo would find it hard not to suspect him.

If that's all there is to it, there may be no substantial evidence to prove it.

However, the leader of Takigakure Village stated that the culprit who captured the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki was a member of the Uchiha clan.

Upon hearing this, it was undoubtedly Lian Ye.

This guy is always causing trouble. Who knows what he's trying to do by capturing tailed beasts?

The key point is that we didn't see him bring the Jinchūriki back to the village!

"Danzo, do you think it might be Renya?" Hiruzen Sarutobi asked tentatively.

In reality, besides Lian Ye, there is probably no one else.

He didn't understand why Lianye was doing this.

"Hiruzen, go and inform Renya, and tell him to figure out how to explain this to me..."

"Shimura Danzo said coldly, then ordered the Anbu to bring in the envoys from various countries."

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi left the Hokage's office immediately.

The Tobirama Senju residence.

"It's so nice to come back and sunbathe after capturing the tailed beast!"

Lianye lay in the courtyard basking in the sun as usual.

He's only missing the last three tailed beasts, and he doesn't plan to try to catch them.

Having collected six tailed beasts during this period, they can be considered to have done everything they could.

Even if they were to make an arrest, it would take several months.

Anyway, he won't capture the Nine-Tails inside Aunt Mito's body, and the Three-Tails hasn't been revived yet, so he can continue to stall for a while longer.

We can easily catch the Six-Tails and settle the matter then.

Then we can tell Uncle Ban the truth.

He endured for over ten years to achieve this day; it was truly remarkable!

At this time, he was unaware of the arrival of diplomatic missions from various countries...

"Lianye, did you secretly capture a tailed beast?!"

Soon, Hiruzen Sarutobi arrived at the door in a menacing manner to question him.

Lian Ye wasn't too surprised by this and said calmly.

"Did Danzo send you?"

While others might not be certain who the culprit was in the disappearance of the Jinchūriki, Danzo certainly found out.

After all, Danzo was always the first to know whenever Danzo left.

You can guess it if you think about it carefully.

There's no need to hide it anymore.

Anyway, in a few months, we'll tell Grandpa Ban the truth.

I'm too lazy to act anymore.

We'll bring him back to live with us eventually, so it won't hurt for our friends to know beforehand...

“Danzo has asked you to prepare to explain to him that delegations from various countries have arrived.” Hiruzen Sarutobi succinctly recounted what had happened in the office.

"I understand." Lian Ye yawned boredly.

Now that countries are becoming more vigilant, they will definitely strengthen the protection of the Six-Tails, making it more difficult to capture.

This is a good thing for him!

Now we can legitimately delay for a few more months.

The longer it takes, the higher the probability of defeating Uncle Ban.

"Lian Ye, did you really do this?"

Although he already had a guess in his mind, he still asked subconsciously.

"Who else could it be but me?"

Lian Ye did not try to hide it, but chose to admit it directly.

Hiruzen Sarutobi: "!!!"

Chapter 454 Strengthening the Protection of Jinchūriki

"Lord Hokage, aren't you going to explain this to us?"

In the Hokage's office, envoys from various countries directly stated their purpose.

News of the Uchiha clan secretly capturing Jinchuriki from various villages had already spread.
