Miru turned her head and said.
If we don't leave before this fog completely dissipates, we'll have no chance at all.
Lord Utaka has a way to escape; they will almost certainly be captured.
"Yeah……"
Mei Terumi no longer had the strength to speak, and could only silently pray in her heart.
Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Qing Si, who was floating in the air behind her. Several illusory serpents extended from his green robe and coiled around Liuwei.
That's right.
She's too weak.
Her vulnerability led to her body desecrating each death of her companions.
Qing Si is strong, while she is weak, which has led to the current situation.
Reckless behavior is the right of the strong!
Mei Terumi finally grasped this painful truth.
Thinking of her recent humiliating experience, Mei Terumi's cheeks flushed.
It was impossible to tell whether it was anger or shame; only the desire for power was crystal clear at that moment.
The problem isn't with her, it's with the world!
One day, she will correct this flawed world, just as she corrected the flaws in the Blood Mist Village.
Kiyoshi is the person she needs to correct!
Miru, who was carrying Terumi Mei on her back, was naturally unaware of the turmoil in Terumi Mei's heart; she only felt that Terumi Mei's body was sticky.
Her back was soaked, and a cold wind blew, bringing a chill.
This prompted Miru to quicken her pace.
At the next base, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, including the powerful Suigetsu Hozuki, Jinpachi Murashi, and Eriko Tsukusano, were all there.
Her former teammate, Kisame Hoshigaki, was also there.
"You... are very good, I'll remember you."
After the Hidden Mist ninjas retreated, Utakata realized that the situation was hopeless.
He gave Kiyoshi a deep look, knowing that a new star would rise in Konoha.
Unfortunately, there is no opportunity to eliminate Kiyoshi from the cradle, allowing him to gain some influence.
If you want to deal with it, you have to prepare in advance.
"Vulpix!"
Utaka roared, and his chakra erupted like a torrent. His massive tailed beast form rapidly shrank and transformed, turning dark blue.
Like a winding, twisting serpent, it quickly disappeared into the distance.
"The unique ability possessed by the Six-Tails?"
Kiyoshi did not pursue them.
The others did not choose to pursue them either.
This mission was quite successful. It not only prevented the Hyuga bloodline from leaking out, but also essentially captured this stronghold.
By now, the few remaining Hidden Mist ninjas in the building behind are all fleeing.
"The white eye was not regained."
Hyuga Hizashi frowned as he looked at Hyuga Nobuhiko, who was being carried on Hyuga Himon's back.
Hinata Nobuhiko's eyes had no eyeballs, only empty eye sockets.
The Byakugan that Kirigakure stole is still in Jonin Ao's right eye.
The other Byakugan will likely be transplanted to another ninja by Kirigakure.
At that time, the Hidden Mist faction will have two Byakugan ninjas, which is not good news for the Hyuga clan.
Not only was his white eye stolen, but his brother was also seriously injured.
"Medical Ninja!"
Hyuga Hizashi shouted.
Two medical ninjas rushed over to give Hyuga Hiashi emergency treatment.
Before long, Fugaku Uchiha began to instruct the ninjas to take over the Kirigakure stronghold.
Looking at the devastated land, he sighed.
Several Uchiha ninjas also died.
If he hadn't been holding back, perhaps the casualties wouldn't have been...
No, otherwise the Uchiha clan will be wary of us. This power must be saved for last.
Go back and wholesale more pension payments.
Fugaku Uchiha turned his attention to Kiyoshi, perhaps hoping to promote Kiyoshi as a visible fighting force.
With one side in the light and the other in the shadows, the Uchiha clan could continue to move forward in peace.
"Kiyoshi, if your new ninjutsu wasn't so difficult, I would want to learn it too."
Kurenai Yuhi immediately ran over, took out her water bottle, and handed it to Kiyoshi.
Kiyoshi's clothes were tattered from the intense battle.
The strong, defined muscles were revealed unintentionally.
Kurenai couldn't help but swallow hard.
Kiyoshi took a sip.
"Hey, wait..."
Kurenai suddenly realized something: wouldn't this be an indirect kiss?
"what happened?"
Kiyoshi raised an eyebrow, wanting to tease Kurenai, and took another sip from her water bottle.
"Ah, nothing."
Kurenai's little head kept shaking.
Kiyoshi, who is taller than Kurenai Yuhi, can easily look down at Kurenai Yuhi from his superior position.
Then he saw that the little ears under the curly black hair of the evening sun were bright red. Not only that, the fine downy hair on the snow-white neck was also red, which was quite cute.
Kurenai Yuhi is really popular right now.
"If you want to learn, there might be a way in the future."
After teasing him for a while, Kiyoshi suddenly said.
All three traditional techniques, "immortal arts" and "cursed seals," carry risks, but the latter can be continuously improved.
For example, the flawed "Heavenly Curse Seal" created by Mitarashi Anko became a more perfect "Heavenly Curse Seal" after being improved on Sasuke.
Kiyoshi's research on "Sage Techniques" will eventually surpass Orochimaru's. After all, no matter how much Orochimaru studies it, he has never truly mastered the power of "Sage Techniques." Only someone like Kiyoshi, who has experienced it firsthand, can study it more deeply.
At that time, we might be able to plant the "cursed seal" on Kurenai Yuhi.
This gives Qing Si another way to save his life.
In theory, as long as the "cursed seal" and his living cells still exist, he can be resurrected from the "cursed seal." Orochimaru was resurrected in this way in the final episode.
As for whether he was resurrected as the real person or a clone, the answer is quite obvious.
The "cursed mark" on Anko's body was planted by Orochimaru before he betrayed Konoha. If it is a clone, it is from that period.
However, after Orochimaru is resurrected, he still needs to regain his hands.
This proves that it is him.
Of course, unless absolutely necessary, Kiyoshi would not want to revive himself in this way, considering it a way out.
……
After leaving some ninjas behind, the others began to retreat back to their original base.
While Kiyoshi and Kurenai were chatting, they noticed the two dark, empty spaces between Hyuga Nobuhiko's eyes and the haggard-looking Hyuga Ginka.
Kiyoshi's lips curled into a smile.
In the original work, Kirigakure only managed to steal one Byakugan, but due to his butterfly effect, it became two.
This means that Hyuga Ginka will be more susceptible to pressure and will be more likely to be affected by his CPU.
"Seiji?"
Kurenai noticed that Seiji suddenly smiled.
"Nothing, we should go."
"it is good."
Kurenai nodded her little head, not thinking much, and quickly followed Kiyoshi.
…………
After completing their mission, Kiyoshi and the others embarked on their journey back.
They were divided into three batches, and Kiyoshi happened to be in the first batch of ninjas to return to the village.
They started their journey back from the southern border of the Land of Fire, which was still in chaos due to war. Kiyoshi also encountered many refugees.
These refugees, without any guarantors and whose backgrounds are unknown, naturally cannot go to Konoha or other major cities.
He could only wander through various small villages, and eventually encountered bandits, forcing him to wander once again.
"Ugh."
Uchiha Tetsuka sighed. That's just how the world is these days.
Some Uchiha clan members who are not ninjas are prone to encountering danger when they go out to do business.
There seems to be an orphanage up ahead.
During their journey, they stopped in a town to resupply.
During the villagers' conversation, the group learned that there was also a well-known orphanage in the area.
They adopted many orphans, and the director of the orphanage was a retired ninja, so no foolish bandits dared to rob it.
It is said that they have recently taken in Konoha ninjas, using medical ninjutsu to help treat them in exchange for money.
Upon hearing this news, Kiyoshi immediately realized what stage the orphanage's storyline had reached.
Danzo Shimura began to put pressure on the orphanage, and Nonou, who was worried about money, even went so far as to reveal that she was once a ninja and began to make a living by using medical ninjutsu.
He also taught the children here basic methods of chakra extraction, as well as some rudimentary medical ninjutsu, and barely managed to help Nonou.
"Let's go, we can go and take a look, maybe we'll run into our Konoha comrades."
Kiyoshi found a reason and suggested it to the others.
"it is good."
Everyone witnessed Kiyoshi's strength on the battlefield, which implicitly placed him in a superior position.
His words contained an inexplicable power that made people want to believe him.
Uchiha Yakumi suddenly shook his head.
For a fleeting moment, he actually had the thought of obeying Kiyoshi, obeying this child he had picked up from the Land of Lightning.
"If we have any Konoha comrades over there, there should be a place for us to stay, which would be better than resting in town."
Uchiha medicine taste.
Ninjas are mercenaries, or you could say they are elites, but their numbers are nowhere near those of ordinary soldiers.
Therefore, even Konoha could not possibly know every part of the vast Land of Fire.
