Chapter 104 The Deteriorated Blood Succession Limit—Smoke Escape! (Fifth update 1.6w)
"The mission is important."
Nara Langui said bluntly when he refused Mrs. Ibri's invitation to let everyone enter the cave.
"Regarding the general situation of the two missing children of your clan, the mission scroll given by the Hokage did not provide detailed information.
"If it is convenient, can you give us the general information about this disappearance? It also facilitates us to complete the task as quickly as possible. "
Hearing Nara Langui's words, Mrs. Iburi thought for a moment, nodded and replied.
"The two missing children are a pair of siblings. The elder sister's name is Ibuki Yukimi, and the younger brother's name is Tenzo. "
While giving the name information of the two children, Mrs. Ibri also roughly described their appearance.
"My sister is twelve years old this year, and my brother is nine years old.
"Yesterday morning, my sister and brother had not left. No one found any trace of them at noon. It was not until the afternoon that we completely confirmed that the two of them had left the cave. "Due to the family's physical condition, we were unable to move for a long time
. In the outside world, they had no choice but to appeal to Konoha for help...and then the four of you arrived. "
Hearing Mrs. Iburi's story, Nara Rangui came to a conclusion.
The brother and sister had disappeared for nearly a day and a half?
Nara Rangui asked: "I'm sorry, Mr. Iburi, we have nothing to do with Yibri. We don't know much about the situation of the Buri clan. What exactly is the 'physical problem' you just mentioned?
"Our family has the ability to turn the body into smoke. " "
Ibrigo was silent for a few seconds, looked at the Konoha forehead protectors of Nara Gui and others, then raised his palm and activated his ability.
I saw Ibrigo's rough and generous palm, under a special wave. Under the influence of chakra, it turned into wisps of gently fluttering white smoke. The
white smoke enveloped Ibriwuta's palm, and thin grained silk threads connected his forearm and the smoke.
Carefully If you look at it, you will find that the smoke turned into the palm is swaying endlessly with the weak air flow around it, as if a strong wind can completely blow it away. "
This kind of smoke-forming ability is very unstable. If the air flow is slightly more violent, it may take away the lives of my people. "
Mrs. Ibrigo changed her palms back to their original shapes and said in a deep voice.
"Adults can still control the time and effect of smoke with experience, but children..." The
rest of the words, Mrs. Ibrigo did not He didn't say it, but everyone present could understand what he meant.
Compared with adults, inexperienced children are more likely to be affected by the external environment, leading to accidental death.
In this case.
The pair named Xuemi, Tenzou's Ibri siblings have been active outside for nearly a day and a half...
Nara Langui has lowered the success of the mission to find the Ibri siblings.
Uchiha Shisui and Shizune His expression changed slightly.
But Hinata's face was as calm and cold as ever.
"I know that in this case, it is very difficult to find Xuejian and Tenzo. "
Ibrawutai said with difficulty.
"But no matter what, these two children are my tribe.
"I can't let the rest of the tribe ignore their own lives and take extremely high risks to go out and search for traces of their siblings.
"I can't care about the lives of their siblings at all... At least, I need a result.
"Please take care of the Konoha ninjas!"
At the end of the sentence, Iburi bowed deeply towards Nara Langui and others.
The four-person team turned sideways in a tacit understanding, avoiding the client's bow and salute.
"A ninja accepts an entrustment and completes the task. This is the most basic professional quality."
Nara Langui said.
"We will definitely try our best to help find the location of the two children.
"But considering the ages of the two children, I still have a few questions to ask Mr. Ibri. "
Please tell me. " "
Mrs. Ibri straightened up.
"I will tell you everything I know.
"Are the two children familiar with the surrounding environment? " "Nara Langui asked, "Do they have a regional place where they often carry out activities? "
About this matter... In fact, the original residence of our Ibri family was not in this cave, but in another place in the Country of Fire." "
Ibrago explained.
"About three months ago, Orochimaru-sama learned about the existence of our clan from somewhere. At the same time, he promised to solve the problem of our clan's survival constitution, and then invited us to come. Come live near Konoha.
"Although he also..."
Mrs. Ibri suddenly realized that he seemed to have said something that he shouldn't have said, and cut through the mess quickly.
"In short, Lord Orochimaru is the benefactor of our clan.
" The two children, Xuejian and Tenzo, should be unfamiliar with the surrounding environment.
"After all, adults often warn children not to go out at will.
"As far as I know, the two children, Xuejian and Tenzo, almost always only move inside the cave.
" Two last questions. " "
Nara Langui raised two fingers.
"First, where is the original settlement of the Ibri clan? No need to go into too much detail, just give a general direction.
"Second, how many people are there in the Ibri clan?"
Mrs. Ibri first gave the number of clan members, and then pointed in a direction outside the cave.
I don't know if it's a coincidence.
The place where the Ibri clan originally lived was the direction where Konoha and Iwagakure had a night attack and battle.
Nara Langui nodded towards Ibrigota, and then led the other three people quickly away from the cave, moving in the direction of the instructions he had just received.
"Captain, have you discovered anything?"
Uchiha Shisui saw Nara Langui moving so fast and thought that the latter had discovered something.
But as soon as the team entered the forest and was out of sight of the cave, Nara Langui took the initiative to stop advancing.
"Hinata."
The team leader called out the name of the girl from the Hyuga clan.
"Take a look at the cave behind and confirm the number of humans in the cave."
"Wait a moment."
Hinata stopped and turned around, opening his eyes.
The powerful insight penetrated the cover of trees and soil and looked directly into the cave where the Ibri family lived.
After a while.
Hinata closed his eyes and took the initiative to report.
"It's two less than the number the other person just said."
"It seems that the two children have indeed left the cave."
Nara Langui nodded and continued to move forward, but his speed slowed down a lot, just like ordinary people. .
"Have you heard what the Ibri leader said just now? Do you have any opinions?" "
I think... this mission will probably fail."
Shizune carefully gave her opinion.
"The leader just said that the survivability of the children in his family is inherently weaker than that of adults, and those two siblings have been away from the cave for so long. I suspect that they have..." "I think so too." Uchiha
stopped
. Shui's brows furrowed, but that wasn't to deny Shizune's opinion, but he was just in a bad mood.
"The blood limit ability of the Ibri clan is very strange, but their ability to survive is too weak..."
Nara Langui continued to nod and looked at the last team member.
"Hinata, what do you think?"
"Absolutely."
Hinata looked forward with a cold expression.
"It's just that there is another point in the direction of my suspicion...
"Lord Orochimaru.
Shizune asked in confusion: "Hinata, do you think there is any special connection between Lord Orochimaru and this incident? " "
No."
Hinata shook his head slightly. "
I want to say that there may be some hidden secret between Lord Orochimaru and the Ibri clan." "
I think Hinata's statement has some truth to it. "
Nara Langui knew the trajectory of Orochimaru's activities - he learned it from Tsunade.
As early as a few months ago,
Orochimaru had already rushed to the front line under the order of Sarutobi Hiruzen, leading the Konoha ninjas to fight against the Kingdom of Earth. The troops of Iwagakure Village.
Correspondingly, it is the Kingdom of Wind and Kingdom of Rain theaters that Jiraiya is responsible for.
Although among the intelligence information Nara Langui knows, Orochimaru three months ago was on the front line. Fighting against Iwagakure.
But it is not difficult to find from Iburigota's attitude that he sincerely respects Orochimaru, it can even be said to be reverence.
So three months ago.
Orochimaru - it is also possible that someone named Orochimaru In the name of - made contact with the Ibri clan and brought them back to the surroundings of Konoha Village from their original gathering area. It's just that
Orochimaru, a scientific research madman, came into contact with the Ibri clan because of the knowledge they had Is that special kind of "smoke transformation", or the blood inheritance limit of "smoke escape"?
Nara Langui thought about it.
The poor and impoverished Ibri clan seems to have only their bodies that can deal with Orochimaru It has a certain attraction effect.
But if this is the case...
'Will the disappearance of the two children be related to Orochimaru, or even... the root?'
Nara Langui threw this somewhat illusory thought out of his mind.
Although he is very familiar with the name "Tenzo",
he can at least be sure that the future Yamato who masters wood escape and is good at landscaping and building houses should not have a last name of "Ibri". "Hinata, don't worry about Orochimaru
and Ibori. The relationship between the clans. "
Nara Langui raised his finger and walked forward.
"If Ibri Yukimi and Ibri Tenzo are still alive, in one and a half days, a twelve-year-old sister and a nine-year-old brother will not run too far. Far.
"Use your Byakugan to explore this road.
"If there are no siblings on this path leading to the original clan land of the Ibri clan, we can fly to the sky again and use the advantage of high altitude to attack Other areas around the cave are being searched intensively. "
Understood. " Hinata
nodded slightly, took a deep breath, and opened her blood inheritance limit again.
"Byakugan!" "
Within the maximum estimated distance that a twelve-year-old child can move in one and a half days. The
four-person team began an intensive search operation.
After precise exploration by Bai Yan,
it was confirmed that the route leading to the original clan land of the Ibri clan On the path, there were no traces of Ibri Yukimi and Ibri Tenzo's actions.
The confirmation of this news undoubtedly lowered the survival probability of Ibri Yukimi and Ibri Tenzo.
Nara Lan Gui summoned a [Shadow Creature], carrying Hinata back to the cave where the Ibri clan now lives, and started searching from the opposite direction - that is, the direction leading to Konoha. And Uchiha Shisui and
Shizune The two of them launched follow-up search operations from both sides of the path leading to the original residence of the Ibri clan. The
four-person team acted separately, each leaving a shadow clone for the other to facilitate communication and reporting.
High altitude Up.
[Shadow Creatures] were circling and flying.
Hinata opened his white eyes and did not miss any corner of the earth.
Time passed little by little.
The girl with white eyes finally sent good news.
"Captain, I saw it! "
Direction, location. " "
After Nara Langui learned the specific location, he controlled the [Shadow Creature] to continuously descend, and came to a giant tree that was as thick as several people could hug each other. Such thick trees can be found almost everywhere around
Konoha Village. It can be seen that it is inconspicuous.
And between the gaps between the main branches of the giant tree, two children, one big and one small, are faintly visible, hiding inside and sleeping.
Ate! Ate!
Nara Langui took a step forward, curled his fingers, Like a knock on the door, the tree trunk was lightly knocked, awakening the two sleeping hearts inside. The
first time the older child woke up, he saw the Konoha forehead protector tied to Nara Langui.
Seeing that Ibrich was not happy, she reacted with surprise. She hugged her brother Tenzo tightly, hid in a tree hole, and asked timidly.
"Are you ninjas of Konoha? "
A very soft voice came from the gap in the tree hole.
"Yes. "
Nara Langui pointed to his own forehead protector, as well as the forehead protector on Hinata's body beside him.
"We have received a mission from the Ibri clan to escort you back to the family.
"We don't want to go back to the family! " "
Ibli Snow's arms suddenly exerted force. The younger Tenzo was turned into a ball of white smoke by his sister's power, and he floated out of the tree hole involuntarily. "
We are going to Konoha and meeting Orochimaru. grown ups! "
Fifth update.
It's later than expected.
Currently I still owe [15] updates.
