Chapter 419 Objectives

On the uninhabited island near the main island of the country of Wave, in the mixed virgin forest, there are countless poisonous insects and beasts, making this place a restricted area for life.

In this restricted area of life that ordinary people would never take the initiative to step into, Scorpion and Didala appeared here.

They wore uniforms of the same style as red clouds with a black background, and wore rings on their fingers. They stopped in front of a mountain wall.

Didara glanced at the smooth mountain wall, and then made a seal with one hand.

The mountain wall in front of it immediately began to melt, revealing a passage for people to walk on.

"You can go in now, Brother Scorpion. Yes."

After doing this, Didara led the way ahead and entered the cave inside the mountain wall first.

Scorpion followed behind.

When the two came in, the mountain wall behind them began to glue together and became the shape before it was unblocked.

From the outside, it is just an ordinary mountain wall.

In the karst cave inside the mountain wall, there is a secret space, in which some food, water, and medicines are stored, and even a lot of ninja tools are prepared, which can be called a small base.

But judging from the traces of cave opening, it should have been less than a month since this small base was built.

It is probably confirmed that Jinchuriki will be active in the area of Na no Country, so let's temporarily open a base here in advance, so that the members of the organization can hide their tracks here as much as possible.

After all, many areas of the Kingdom of Waves are being monitored by the ninjas of the Kingdom of Ghosts. If you go to the main island, it is easy to be spotted by the ninjas of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

In terms of aggressiveness, the kingdom of ghosts is tied with the kingdom of thunder, and they have always adopted a very tough style of conduct.

Not long after the two entered, the clods on the ground began to bulge slightly, and a white humanoid creature slowly drilled out of the soil with a smile.

"It's Bai Jue."

Didara was no stranger to seeing this scene.

After joining the Akatsuki organization three years ago, he has gradually learned that the core members of this organization are basically a group of 'abnormal' humans.

Whether it's a physical abnormality, or a felony committed when he defected, or someone like him, artistic values cannot be shared with ordinary people.

Discovering the art of beauty from explosions, Deidara also thinks that his taste is different from ordinary people.

Because of the abnormality, it is a kind of aesthetics.

Even he has a rare sense of identity with this organization, and thinks it is an artistic expression of 'beauty'.

Compared to Yanyin Village, a place that doesn't know how to appreciate the beauty of his art, Xiao Organization is a paradise for art to him.

"Good afternoon, both of you."

Bai Jue greeted the two with a smile.

"Stop talking nonsense, where is Injurik?"

Scorpion asked straight to the point.

He is well aware of Bai Jue's nagging character. If he waits for the other party to open up the chatterbox, he will probably be able to talk non-stop for a whole day.

Compared to talking here with Bai Jue, he wants to complete the task as soon as possible, then leave the country of Bo, and find a quiet place to continue the research of puppet art.

"I'm locking the opponent's position on the main island of Namuni."

"You should have come here earlier than us, why, haven't the trace of Jinjuriki been locked?"

Scorpion's voice reveals impatience.

"Being disturbed by the people of the Lei Guangtuan, Renzhuli moved his position."

Bai Jue said regretfully.

"Lei Guang Group?"

"That's right, they are bounty hunters hired by the Bounty Farmers and Industry Corps."

"I've heard of their names, and the members in it either possess the secret technique or have the blood succession limit. How could they conflict with Jinzhuli?"

Xie was puzzled, did the members of the Lei Guang Group also want to get the Tailed Beast?

If this is the case, then the action needs to be more careful.

"Ninjas who sneak into the country of Wave for no reason will definitely be monitored and suppressed by local ninjas. Moreover, Konoha has also noticed."

"The situation is really complicated."

Konoha, Thunder Light Group, Kingdom of Ghosts, or the fourth force got involved.

Now Akatsuki is going to play a role in it, and that is the melee of the five forces.

Fortunately, these four forces did not know the fact that Xiao was involved.

That means that he and Didala have more room to operate.

"Yeah, the leader already knows the situation here. He asked the two of you to wait for the best time to take action. There is only one chance. Once you fail, it is not that simple to succeed next time."

After listening to Bai Jue's narration, Xie scanned the food and water in the base, and understood the significance of putting these food and water here.

He is half man, half puppet, and does not need food and water to sustain life activities.

Bai Jue has a special body that needs sunlight and water to replenish life energy.

The food and water in the base are for Didara.

The opponent is still a human body of flesh and blood, and cannot do without the supply of food and water.

"This time the attack is based on Didara's burst ninjutsu, and the raid starts from the sky. You can discuss how to do it yourself. If you need anything, you can tell me at any time, and I will prepare it for you. Not only that, the leader also asked for a batch of new clay from Orochimaru."

"The leader's preparations are really thoughtful, yes."

Didara nodded in satisfaction.

His explosive ninjutsu is related to clay, and can be used in land and air combat, flexible and changeable.

The only requirement is a large amount of special clay.

Ordinary clay cannot carry his 'art' at all.

Orochimaru knew about it. Although Akatsuki's logistics technician was a disgusting guy, Didara recognized his research ability.

Besides, Beiliuhu and the scorpion teamed up with him are also half-researchers, but compared to the omnipotence of Orochimaru, both of them are outstanding in research in a certain field.

"Then prepare well, prepare more C318th."

Scorpion glanced at Didara and said to him.

"It's very troublesome to prepare, and when used, it will consume a lot of chakra."

Didara looked helplessly at Scorpion.

His explosive ninjutsu is divided into four grades from C1 to C4.

C1 Clay objects have the weakest ability, such as clay spiders, white birds, flying cranes, biwing birds, grasshoppers, etc.

C4's clay products, although the destructive power is not necessarily amazing, but it is lore for ninjas who can't see through C4's attack mode.

As for the C3 level of clay production, it is the ultimate sublimation version of C1, and the explosive power is very terrifying.

But because of this, it is not only cumbersome to make, it cannot be made on site, but can only be prepared in advance, and when used, the consumption of chakra is also very exaggerated.

With the amount of Chakra in his body, it is not enough to use C318 many times.

"That doesn't matter, I will use the spore technique to parasite in your body, and when you run out of chakra, I will replenish chakra for you."

Bai Jue looked at Didala and said.

"In this case, I don't mind letting you appreciate my art more, eh."

Didara had a smile on his face.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and make it, if the task fails, I will destroy all your clay."

Scorpion said irritably.

"Don't worry, Brother Scorpion, there is still time."

Didara has become accustomed to Scorpion's irritable personality over the years, and is completely immune to it.

"Then you two prepare here, I will continue to collect information and locate the whereabouts of Jinjuriki."

Bai Juejian no longer has his own business here, so he wisely didn't intervene in the conversation between the two, and disappeared into the mud.

"This guy is still so mysterious."

Seeing that Bai Jue disappeared, Didara shook his head, and came to a box containing the special clay that Bai Jue had mentioned.

Opening the box and taking out the packed clay inside, Didala found an open space and began to make his own art works with clay.

Scorpion saw Didala start working, and didn't bother him, just found a place to stay quietly.

Different from Didara, a young ninja who likes to forget about things, he is always in the ideal state to play no matter when and where.

"Speaking of which, Brother Scorpion, how many are our missions to catch this time?"

Didara, who was making clay, suddenly remembered something and asked.

Xie glanced at him, and replied: "It's Erwei, she is a ninja from Yunyin Village."

"I see."

"Don't underestimate carelessness just because the other party is a woman. Yunyin Village has mastered the cultivation method of perfect renjuriki. Although I don't know whether Erwei's renjuriki has completed the perfect renjuriki practice, but the strength is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary renjuriki."

Scorpion warned Didala.

Wild tail beasts, although powerful, are dead ends for ordinary ninjas no matter how many they come.

But as long as you master the method of targeting, wild tailed beasts are actually the easiest to deal with.

Besides, it is also easy to capture the undeveloped renjuriki.

The cultivation of human strength has always been one of the top priorities of many ninja villages.

This not only involves the issue of how much resources to invest, but also guarantees the loyalty of Renzhu Riki to Ninja Village.

If you cultivate a Renzhuli who is hostile to your own village, it will only be worth the loss.

The most difficult thing to catch is the third one. The power of renchuriki and tailed beasts began to resonate, approaching the perfect renchuriki.

This kind of renzhuli is not only powerful in itself, but can also use the power of tailed beasts to make its own strength even higher, which is difficult to target with sealing techniques.

Even the illusion of Sharingan is difficult to deal with this kind of human strength.

Yunyin Village has mastered the cultivation method of perfect renjuriki, and Erwei renjuriki must have also received this kind of training.

Therefore, if Erwei Jinchuriki is treated as an ordinary Jinchuriki, he and Didara will definitely suffer a lot from it.

"Really? I see. It seems that I need to prepare a few more C318th. It's Sharingan again, and Jinchuriki's. Hmm."

"This is the best. But it's just a small fight now. When the agreement with the ghost country ends, it will not be so easy to catch the tailed beast at that time."

Scorpion said in a dignified tone.

"Brother Scorpion, you seem to be very concerned about the affairs of the Kingdom of Ghosts. Have you had conflicts with them in the past?"

Didara looked curiously at Scorpion.

"That was about seven or eight years ago. At that time, the organization was still short of manpower, and Beiruhu had just joined. He, Orochimaru, and I fought against Hinata Ayane because of an accident."

Scorpion satisfied Didara's curiosity and began to narrate the past.

"So, how did it turn out?"

"There was no result, because the leader suddenly intervened, so it was just a hasty fight, and neither side did their best. But all under the premise of hiding the backhand, the three of us were jointly suppressed by the other party."

"Isn't that a loss? Brother Scorpion, you are really a bit dishonest in terms of winning or losing. Hmm."

Hearing Scorpion's tone was not happy, Didala felt that the other party was deliberately covering up the embarrassment of his failure, so he burst out laughing.

"Didara, do you want to die?"

Scorpion's tone suddenly became low, becoming terrifying and gloomy.

His pale eyes were filled with ferocious bloodshot eyes.

"Well, don't mind, Brother Scorpion. I will avenge you in the future, using my art. Yes."

Didara didn't care about the threat from the scorpion.

If the other party really wanted to do something, they would have already started firing poisonous concealed weapons.

Clearly taking care of him like this, but still pretending to be ruthless.

From this point of view, he thinks that the big brother Xie has a cute personality.

Only in the exploration of art, the two had disagreements, and the dispute has still not reached a result.

"Hmph, let me wait and see. If you can beat the opponent, then I will admit that your explosion is also a kind of art."

In Scorpion's view, Deidara is much too young to fight a ninja of Hinata Ayane's level.

Even if the so-called C4 ultimate move is used, it will be seen through by the opponent's supercilious eyes and lose its effect.

It's really boring.

Naruto sighed like this more than once in his heart.

Sitting on the coast next to the bridge construction site, at the end of the day, I would just sit here in a daze, eat at mealtime, and basically have nothing else to do.

Because it is necessary to prevent samurai and hooligans who may come to disrupt the normal operation of the construction site at any time, it is impossible to help on the construction site.

Moreover, with the popularization of industrialization, most of the construction tools used on the construction site are machines, and no longer rely purely on manpower.

Ordinary manpower is not only inefficient in the face of mechanized tools, but also prone to errors in the process.

Unless it is a ninja army dedicated to the construction industry, it can keep up with the machinery.

But Naruto didn't know how to build a bridge, nor did he know how to operate those complicated large machines, so he could only sit on the coast and stare blankly.

But compared to him, the rest of the people don't have this self-awareness.

Kakashi enjoyed this rare leisure time very much.

Over the years, he has been busy with the business in the dark department, and he has been too busy to reveal the truth.

Leading the seventh class, except for the necessary time, he basically didn't bother to move.

After all, no one knows how long he can be the instructor of the seventh class.

As for Sasuke, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the cultivation of Thunder Dun. In order to avenge Itachi, he couldn't waste any time.

Sakura also has her own things to do. When she is not working, she stays not far from Sasuke, carefully reading the medical books brought out from Konoha, and deepening her understanding of medical ninjutsu.

"Mr. Kakashi, don't you have anything meaningful to do?"

Naruto came over, and glanced at "Kind of Heaven" in Kakashi's hand.

I'm reading this unhealthy banned book again. Naruto slandered in his heart.

"What meaningful things are you going to do?"

"that"

Kakashi asked such a rhetorical question, but Naruto didn't know what to say.

"Forget it, it seems that you didn't plan your future well. Really, you clearly said that your dream is Hokage, but in the end you don't have any long-term plans."

Seeing Naruto begging for help, Kakashi sighed.

Naruto giggled, showing no sign of embarrassment.

"Sure enough, Mr. Kakashi, you are the best."

"Don't come here... Speaking of which, your tree-climbing training has already been completed, right?"

Kakashi closed "Kind to Heaven" and asked.

"Yes, that's right, I've mastered it."

"In this case, let's try treading water."

"Treading water?"

Naruto tilted his head, then remembered something.

In the past, when Sasuke was picking up **** on the river, he stood on the surface of the water, and his body was not submerged in the water.

"It seems that you also know what to do next. Treading water is a higher level ability than climbing trees. If you practice it well, your foundation will be more solid."

"However, I have already done the tree-climbing practice, so stepping on water is not difficult, right? Isn't there a more powerful ninjutsu? For example, Sasuke's ninjutsu that can breathe fire and discharge electricity."

Every time he sees Sasuke being able to breathe fire and discharge electricity, he is envious.

Because he is so handsome.

If he can also learn this trick, he will definitely be able to attract Sakura's attention and feel his handsome side.

I didn't even lay the foundations well, so I wanted to learn the more advanced attributes of chakra's nature changes.

That is far more difficult than finely manipulating Chakra.

"In short, you should do a good job of treading water first. After you learn to tread water, I will teach you other things."

Kakashi looked at Naruto helplessly.

Think of it as repaying that man's insignificant kindness.

If Naruto is left for such a long time, sooner or later he will be abandoned by Konoha.

"What, I just need to learn to tread water in a while."

Naruto said dissatisfied.

"Hey, you'd better not underestimate the trick of treading water."

The soles of the feet are the places where Chakra is least likely to gather in the human body, and if you want to learn to climb trees and tread water, you must control the amount of Chakra you release, and maintain it at all times, and any action must be just right. One point more or one point less will lead to failure.

It took Naruto a few days to climb the tree alone. Treading water is more difficult than climbing a tree. With Naruto's shoddy chakra control, it may take a week to hone it.

After all, it is many times more difficult to subtly adjust the chakra than to simply condense the chakra.

At the same time, this is also the basis for the ninja to become stronger.

As long as you can master the two skills of climbing trees and treading water, learning escapism in the future will be much easier than learning escapism directly, and it will save a lot of chakra and maintain the power of escapism.

"Yes, I see."

Naruto said weakly.

"Now that you know, let's call Sakura here too, she doesn't seem to have learned how to tread water yet."

"yes."

Mentioning Sakura, Naruto ran out energetically.

"Really, this guy can change his face faster than turning the pages of a book. However, the atmosphere here is indeed a bit too comfortable."

It's like the quiet prelude before the storm.

Kakashi glanced at the calm scene around him, thinking to himself.

At the same time, he also looked at where the Lei Guang Group was. Except for the leader, Qian Nai, who was sitting on the railing and looking at the sea, the rest of them were missing. Maybe they were dealing with the rats in the dark.

"Damn it!"

Began to train the ability to tread water, Naruto can't remember how many times he fell into the sea water.

Every time I become a drowned chicken and swim from the sea to the shore, and then repeat the same thing.

Although his unwillingness to admit defeat made him wonder what discouragement was, treading water seemed simple, but it was more difficult than climbing a tree.

Although Kakashi told him some tips for quickly mastering water treading skills, Naruto's mastery of treading water is still at a raw stage.

"It doesn't seem too difficult."

From the other side, Sakura's joyful voice came.

Naruto turned his head to look, only to see Sakura stepping steadily on the surface of the sea, walking there like flying, without any obstruction.

"That's amazing, Sakura! She is indeed the woman I like!"

Naruto was surprised, but at the same time he was very happy, even happier than he learned to tread water.

"Well"

Sakura, who was still very happy, suddenly didn't know what to say.

It is a good thing to be praised by others, but it is always strange to be praised by Naruto.

Compared with Naruto, she hopes to be recognized by Sasuke.

However, seeing that Sasuke was still doing the Thunder Dunning practice not far away, without paying attention to the scene on his side, he couldn't help sighing.

At this moment, Kakashi came over and said with a smile: "It seems that Sakura is one step closer to Hokage, and she is much better than someone who can only talk big."

"Mr. Kakashi, don't try to sow discord here, okay?"

Sakura looked at Kakashi speechlessly. To some extent, Kakashi is also an instructor with a bad personality.

Afterwards, she saw the unwilling Naruto who gritted his teeth without saying a word, and continued walking to the sea, doing the practice of stepping on the water.

"It's all your fault, Naruto must be very disappointed now."

In the beginning, Sakura hated Naruto, because in the past at school, Naruto was not only poor in grades, but also always mischievous, disturbing the classroom order, and it was difficult not to be disgusted.

But after getting familiar with it, I feel that Naruto is not so unreliable.

Just because of lack of common sense, people think he is incompetent.

Since I was young, I didn't feel the fatherly and motherly love that other people have, which is probably the reason why the other party became like this.

"It's nothing. If Hokage is the target, this setback will not defeat him. Don't underestimate this kid's resilience."

If he was depressed here because of this setback, then Naruto would have been defeated by all kinds of gossip in the village these years.

From the perspective of xinxing, he feels that Naruto is more suitable for the practice of natural energy than Sasuke.

Sometimes it is too realistic, but it will make the vision narrower.

Hate... Kakashi sighed in his heart. From this point of view, he seems not qualified to talk about Sasuke.

Only an Avenger understands the pain and bitterness in an Avenger's heart.

Any laugh is a forced smile.

From the moment he bears hatred, his life is already different from that of normal people.

So, compared to Naruto's future, he wants to know what choice Sasuke will make after knowing the truth about the genocide in the future.
