In the forest, Yu Ling led his new team and jumped among the trees. Now, his team members have become Tsukisagi, Jugo and Kimimaro, while Asuka and Mingyue have turned back and returned to the border first.
"Tomorrow... I hope I can get better after returning to the Land of Fire. I have never seen this symptom before. It would be nice to have a medical ninja. On the road... be sure not to have anyone chasing you."
Mingyue Carrying Mingri on his back, dragging on the branches step by step, he slowly jumped out of the Tianzhiguo forest.
...
"Okay, they have also set off, let's hit the road. Kimimaro, are you going to lead the way?" Yu Ling looked at Mingyue's back and asked behind him, his hands already starting to organize the equipment he was carrying.
"Me...I can. But I ask Jugo to walk with me. According to...the rules of the Kingdom of Fire, marching must be in a long line." Although Kimimaro was born in the Kingdom of Water, he lives in He belongs to the Kingdom of Tian, but because of his identity and mission, he also knows the habits of the Kingdom of Fire relatively well.
"Huh? The cage... is it? You are worried about Jonggo. It doesn't matter. I will form the team according to my ideas. I can control Jonggo's rampage. There will be no adverse reactions. From the moment you agreed to join us I will try my best to help you from the beginning."
Yu Ling saw Kimimaro's worries, but using violence as a means to interrupt Jugo's rampage was really not an act that he could agree with. On the contrary, he used chakra as a medium and used external force to control the chakra level in Zhongwu's body, which was more peaceful and more effective. No matter which way you look at it, it is a much better method.
Naturally, Yu Ling would not let go of this opportunity to further bring the two of them together.
"You...really..."
"Kimimaro, believe him. The chakra he injected into me before is very warm, and I can't feel the slightest malice. Compared with Orochimaru's cold and terrifying equipment, I am willing to believe this Child."
"Is it just a child?" Hearing Zhongwu's name, although he was indeed just a child, Yu Ling still felt a little offended.
"Jūgo...Okay, if you are willing to accept such help, I can accept it. Then, let's go." Kimimaro looked at the calm Jūgo, their eyes moved slightly, and after a brief exchange, he made Decided.
"Wait a minute, before we set off, I need to explain something. I, codename Tianling, am the captain of this team. All actions must be under my instructions. In the queue, Kimimaro is first, Yuetu is second, I stand In the third place, the Queen of Chonggo. Can you understand this division?"
Yu Ling stood still and called out to Kimimaro who had already taken a step forward.
"His Majesty Zhongwu... are you planning to..."
"Yes, Zhongwu's defense is the strongest among us, and he also has the ability to sense malice. Being close to me can quickly suppress the rampage. You know the way, so number one is for you. You. Tsukito has poor melee combat skills and needs protection both front and rear. Is that okay?" "You
actually said that you would ask Jūgo to be the queen... You are so confident."
Kimimaro was a little concerned about letting his best friend be the queen. , but this is the most suitable formation for this team.
"Kimimaro, it's okay. Just have some faith in him. I don't think he is a bad person. In other words, there is a reason for me to follow him." "
Follow? Jugo, you..."
"Yes, he... Yu Ling The chakra makes me feel a little close. Although I don't know why, it is so familiar and warm."
Yu Ling knew nothing about his life experience. Although he could also feel the strangeness that Zhonggo could feel, he couldn't tell what it felt like.
"Oh? Are you very close? That's good. However, maybe it's just because the chakra I input is completely Yang attribute." Yu Ling can only give this explanation. Yang attribute chakra is indeed the warmest. Chakra properties. And Jugo only has Yin chakra in his body, so it is not impossible for opposite sexes to attract each other.
"No, it must be more than that. Well, Kimimaro, believe him." There were no unnecessary expressions or words. After expressing his feelings, Jugo turned to look at Kimimaro in front of the team. His firm eyes and flowing orange hair were frozen in this moment.
This was the moment when he made up his mind to follow Yu Ling.
It was also the moment when Kimimaro decided to sincerely switch sides.
"Okay, I believe in your feelings. Yu Ling, I'll listen to your arrangements." The figure of Orochimaru still lingers in his heart, but the person that Jugo is interested in will definitely not be a man who will disappoint him.
From the time he met Jugo until now, the only person who can completely trust Jugo is Kimimaro. And Yu Ling might become the second one. What Kimimaro wants to accomplish most is to find a way to allow Jugo to live freely. Now that he has encountered a method that can convince Jugo, there will be no problem if he gives it a try.
"That's good. Then, let's set off. Just follow the formation I just said. As for the route, it's up to you, Kimimaro. This should be the place you're most familiar with." To be trusted by new
members, for a It is very important for the captain. There is no doubt that Yu Ling, as a captain, executed this step perfectly. The reason is unknown.
He could feel that he had a strange ability that had been surrounding him, but he could not explain it. Sometimes it will appear very timely and have a great impact. Sometimes it just doesn't show up no matter how you call it. This thing is also fully enhancing its auxiliary capabilities with age. The most obvious one is the ability to perceive chakra. From feeling face-to-face chakra as a child to hundreds of meters now. It has only been eight years, and the progress has been rapid.
After a few minutes, the four set off. Kimimaro and Jugo stood at the head and tail of the team respectively, taking long strides on the branches. Yu Ling and Yue Tu were used to the dense forests of the Fire Country, so their movements were like small steps with extremely high frequency.
But once you get used to it, it doesn’t take much physical energy.
It didn't take long for the dense forest to be replaced by endless wilderness and hills.
"Kimimaro, Orochimaru's stronghold...in a place like this? Hills are not easy to cover." This was Yu Ling's intuition. The forest, which contrasted sharply with the hills, was obviously a better hiding place. Here you can refer to Konoha's ANBU base, which is hidden in the Forest of Fire Country. Even if it was a semi-ground building, few ninja villages would get information about Konoha's ANBU base.
The view in the dense forest is limited, and there is a lot of green cover, which is hundreds of times better than the bare brown land.
"Yes. Lord Orochimaru... Orochimaru's base is completely underground." Kimimaro was not prepared to hide it, and directly revealed the location of this unreachable stronghold.
"Is it completely underground... I heard from Tomorrow when he was still normal that access to your stronghold is through the seal barrier?" Yu Ling remembered what Tomorrow had reported before when he came back. This is quite distinctive and relatively easy to remember.
"Huh? Why does he know about this barrier problem?" Kimimaro suddenly stopped and turned around, staring into Yu Ling's eyes through the mask.
"Why? Tomorrow, his clone was captured by your people and entered your stronghold. I heard that the building inside is like a matryoshka doll, and the same scene keeps repeating." In order to get more information , it is a good method to reveal a little bit of what you already know.
Of course, this assumes that the intelligence is reliable and accurate.
"Matryoshka dolls? Lord Orochimaru doesn't have that habit. It seems like he guessed it himself. However, the barrier... In the plan revealed by Lord Orochimaru, there was never any mention of the need for prisoners. What's going on..."
"Orochimaru may have deceived us. We are just his tools." Jugo felt that he had seen through Orochimaru. After giving him the materials for human experiments for so long, he still couldn't cure his illness. Now Jugo only had an urge to kill Orochimaru in his heart. He was filled with murderous intent, but because of the checks and balances of the Yang chakra, he would not go berserk in a short time.
"Is that so... It doesn't matter, now I have decided to follow Yu Ling. Let's continue. However, this information..." "
Not sure, now Tomorrow has lost part of his memory. The accuracy and authenticity of the previous clips cannot be guaranteed. "
Yuetu guessed what he was going to ask and said it first. She didn't want to hear voices from other people questioning tomorrow because they were traumatized.
"That's right, then let's continue. We'll be there not far ahead. I'll go back and lift the restrictions on the barrier, so you can only go in inside. Jugo and I... will guard the outside." Kimimaro's voice He slowly lowered his head, and his back turned around reflected the setting sun, feeling a little chilly.
"Kimimaro, why can't you go in?" Yu Ling failed to understand here. No matter what, there should be no problem. With the guidance of the two of them, it will be easier and easier to find Captain Yamato.
"Yu Ling... Orochimaru is very familiar with our aura. Similarly, Kimimaro has Orochimaru's power. If you get close to Orochimaru, you will be affected. Maybe it will be violent to a situation that even you can't control. "Zhongwu spoke. The source of the curse seal is himself, so he naturally understands the energy implanted in Kimimaro's body.
The curse seal is very negative and is not controlled by the caster's body. Coupled with Orochimaru's calculations, I don't know what strange spells will be added to it. At the same time, because Kimimaro has been following Orochimaru for a long time, he is more likely to be affected by his spirit. It will have a devastating blow to the success rate of the mission.
"Is that so? Okay, let Yuetu and I sneak into it alone. However, can you describe the inside? It will be of great help." It would be better to reduce the success rate of the mission than to bet with your life. Although Yu Ling was a little reluctant to give up, he still made up his mind and decided to sneak in together.
"Okay. I'll make a map for you."
