Chapter 26: Shadow attack under night lights! (Please read, please vote)
"You mean, in the caravan, besides us Konoha ninjas, there are two other ninjas?"
Nara Shikano woke up from a nap, frowning slightly.
"One of them, is he the leader of a small caravan?"
"Yes, clan leader."
Nara Langui reported carefully.
"According to my observation, the spiritual energy contained in the leader's brain is very powerful, not inferior to that of Brother Hai."
As the next generation clan leader of the Yamazaka clan, Yamazaka Haiichi has been practicing the spiritual mystical arts inherited by his family for many years. His spiritual energy is huge, even among the elite Jonin, he is the best.
If the caravan leader only had some traces of chakra flowing in his body.
Nara Langui would not take it so seriously.
After all, the current world is in chaos, and as a merchant leader, it is reasonable to learn one or two ninjutsu for self-defense.
But a little-known caravan leader whose spiritual energy intensity is comparable to the "Pig of the Mountain" in Konoha's contemporary Ino Shika Butterfly?
In the ninja world, there may be many masters who are independent from the ninja village system, and their reputation is not as good as that of the elite ninjas in the ninja village.
But there is no way that an elite Jonin-level strongman can appear anywhere!
Therefore, as soon as he discovered the situation, Nara Langui interrupted his practice and came back to report the situation to the clan leader.
As for rushing up to him and asking him about the situation...
Nara Langui was not so insane and reckless.
"This is indeed very suspicious."
Nara Shikano's brows frowned deeper, and several deep wrinkles appeared on his forehead.
What he was thinking of at the moment was similar to Nara Langui.
If the caravan leader was just an ordinary person who had learned some ninjutsu, Nara Shikano would have pretended not to have seen it.
Anyway, the mission Konoha received this time was to escort a few small caravans to Kyoto, so there was no need to add any extraneous details.
But the problem is that the strength level of the caravan leader is too high, abnormally high!
The spiritual energy that is comparable to that of an elite Jonin...
Coupled with the intelligence information of the group of bounty hunters who attacked the caravan when they left the village...
Nara Shikano was able to kill the man named "The Imperial Guard" without any effort. The caravan leader of "Ya Cheng Yan" is connected with the two identities of "the slayer of the Blood Pond Clan".
This inference may not be absolutely correct, but it cannot be denied that its possibility is not small!
If there is no aura of "genocide killer".
For the sake of everyone getting along peacefully during the day.
Nara Kano would still choose not to see anything. At most, he would secretly order everyone to be more vigilant against Oya Castle Flame.
But the negative halo effect of "Clan Slayer" is too strong.
Even if Nara Kano found it troublesome, he would not turn a blind eye to it.
The matter was so important that Nara Kano did not want to act rashly.
"Ran Gui, how did you find out about his ninja identity?"
Nara Shikano stroked his beard and confirmed carefully.
"Haiichi's sensory chakra has been checked more than once by the people inside the caravan, but nothing was found."
Nara Shikano's suspicion is reasonable.
Even though he valued Nara Langui, a descendant of the family, in the final analysis, he was just a genin who left the village for the first time.
On the other hand, Yamanaka Haiichi, as one of the contemporary "Pig Deer Butterfly", is very powerful and experienced, and is especially good at spiritual perception.
"Perhaps the caravan leader used some means to interfere with Brother Hai's perception."
Nara Langui provided a possible guess direction, while taking off his sunglasses and raising [Paint Eyes].
"As for how I found out... [Paint Eye] has the function of observing the flow of spiritual energy." The
magical abilities mastered by ninjas are top secret information.
But since he had already planned to share the [Lacquer Eye] technique scroll with his family, Nara Langui would not deliberately conceal the information at this time.
'[Paint Eyes] can also see into spiritual energy? '
Hearing this, Nara Kano almost broke his goatee.
'These eyes are really going to become the 'Sharingan' of the Nara clan! '
"Lan Gui, I suddenly regret not taking the scroll of [Paint Eye] from your hand before."
Nara Shikano put down his hand and said with a complicated expression.
"These eyes are more powerful than I imagined."
"I still have the same attitude."
Nara Langui answered meticulously.
"As long as the clan leader is willing, you can take that scroll from me at any time.
"And to be honest, the war is constantly approaching. If the clansmen can learn [Paint Eyes], it will definitely enhance their survivability on the battlefield. "
As an A-level ninjutsu, [Paint Eyes] is naturally extremely difficult to learn.
But Nara Langui believes that no "Nara slacker" can escape the attraction of "Muji Ninjutsu".
Enthusiasm, talent It is the real source of motivation.
With great enthusiasm for learning, coupled with the good brains of the Nara clan, Nara Langui feels that it is not difficult for ninjas of the same clan to learn [Paquer Eye]. In addition, Nara Langui has not
yet After giving the scroll of the [Painted Eye] technique, he first obtained an S-level [Secret Ninja Scroll] from the clan leader, all the ninjutsu medical information of the Nara clan, a monthly salary of one million taels, and chakra metal...
He It's not that I don't accept the benefits that fall from the sky.
But the clan leader gave too much...
so much that even Nara Langui felt a little hot.
"Of course I understand this..."
Nara Shikano stroked his beard habitually .As
the leader of a clan, he needs to consider more issues.
The power and functionality of [Paquer Eye] are needless to say.
But it can affect not only the Nara clan, but also the relationship with foreign clans. .
In Konoha, the Nara clan cannot be said to be very respected, but at least it can be said to be indispensable. The
core of the medical system, the leader of the Jonin class, the Hokage's staff officer, and the official relationship of the Land of Fire...
Currently, the Nara clan is in The strength and status in Konoha can be said to have developed to an extreme state.
In this position, it will not attract covetousness or suppression.
For the Nara clan, this state is the most comfortable.
If this limit state is broken rashly, it will inevitably cause a large number of chain reactions.
The balanced relationship with the Yamanaka clan and the Akimichi clan, the alliance with the Sarutobi clan, the pressure from the real super clans Uchiha and Hinata, and even the possibility of being suppressed by the Hokage... And if you want to break this limit, you have
to Continue to stay comfortable.
Kano Nara could only think of one solution.
Let’s refer to the example of the Ghost Lantern clan in the Kirigakure Village next door.
The Nara clan, like the Oniden clan, came out with a shadow-level powerhouse like the second-generation Mizukage Kito Genzuki!
'War...people...survival...time...foreign clans...Hokage...Lan Gui...'
In just a few seconds, Nara Kano thought of a lot of things.
Finally he made a decision.
"After completing this mission and returning to the village, you will hand over the [Paint Eye] scroll to me!
"I will first spread the [Paint Eye] technique to a small area within the clan and require everyone to learn the [Paint Eye] The tribesmen kept it strictly confidential. "
Nara Langui nodded. He fully agreed with the decision made by the clan leader.
But in his heart, he still sighed.
'Clan leader, stop planting flags...'
"Also, Langui. "
Nara Shikano stared at Nara Langui with sharp eyes.
Just a few seconds passed, and his expectations for Nara Langui increased a lot.
Now that he has made plans to promote the [Lacquer Eye] technique scroll, Then the plan to train Nara to take the honors needs to be accelerated!
"Do you have the confidence to face the caravan leader, Oya Shiroen, who deliberately hides his identity? "
Nara Langui was stunned.
"... Huh? "
...
Nara Langui walked out of the temporary camp and slowly approached the leader of the caravan, Oya Chengyan.
He really didn't expect that the clan leader would take the initiative to send him to deal with the suspicious ninja who was suspected of being an elite jounin.
But are you confident?
Nara Langui took a step forward, and the shadows under his feet undulated like waves. A physical clone that was exactly the same as himself suddenly appeared in front of him. [S-level technique: Shadow Clone Technique
]
Clone Standing still, Nara Langui stepped forward again. His whole body was like a piece of tissue paper, blending into the shadow of the clone.
[C-level technique: Flat Shadow Technique]
'This is me in the clone state Is it?'
Nara Langui's consciousness was briefly possessed by the [Shadow Clone]. He raised his palms and made a virtual fist.
'This sense of relief, transcending the mortal world, is so exciting!'
If it weren't for the fact that his own chakra amount could not guarantee the performance of [Hiraikage no Jutsu] all day long, Nara Langui would have wanted to live in the state of [Shadow Clone]. He turned around and looked back, looking at the shadow of the temporary
camp , nodded slightly, and took action again.
In the shadows, Nara Kano, Yamanaka Haiichi and Akimichi Choza were silent.
Nara took Gui and went to test Oya Castle Flame.
He was the one who replaced the Ino Shika Butterfly team. Secret bodyguard!
Nara Langui quietly approached Miyagi En's position.
As the leader of the caravan, the latter was leaning next to a carriage, holding a sickle, cutting grass and feeding horses with his own hands.
Nightfall In the darkness, Nara Langui stood in front of the light, and the warm yellow light lengthened his shadow.
"Boss of Oya Castle. "
The sudden greeting seemed to frighten Oya Chengyan.
He screamed in pain, and the sickle accidentally cut his palm, and a string of blood instantly oozed from his palm.
"Ouch..."
Wearing a very fancy pair Oya Shiroyan, who was wearing huge diamond-shaped sunglasses, turned around with a complaining tone.
"Brother, please stop scaring people from behind at night... What do you want from me? "
Nara Langui looked at Oya Shiroen's injured left hand and narrowed his eyes slightly. His main consciousness returned to the shadows and his clone consciousness came online. The shadows surged, as if the
ink-stained beast opened its fangs and bit the unconscious prey.
Seeing that the shadows of the two people had overlapped, [Shadow Clone] said straight to the point.
"Boss of Oya City, have you ever heard of... the shadow binding technique? ”
