The Thousand Faces of Konoha's Weird Man

138 Puppet War

The situation changed instantly, and Moonlight Hayate became the most embarrassing person on the scene.

To be honest, I have seen a lot of psychic beasts myself, but most of them are brave and fearless or mysterious and heretical types. Moonlight Blast has never seen this kind of type that runs away when it looks bad. Especially the way this psychic beast escapes is full of a sense of obscenity.

Although Winston ran faster, he still didn't escape the limit of Moonlight Gale's pursuit. Moreover, everyone knows about Thunder Release. As a special jounin, Moonlight Hayate can easily tell that Winston's morbid acceleration cannot be sustained for a long time, and it is only a matter of time before he catches up with this psychic beast. But the effort is not proportional to the benefit. After all, Moonlight Hayate's ultimate goal is just the faceless ANBU. What's more, even if he catches him, what will happen? If the other party dispels the psychic beast, then wouldn't his trip be in vain?

Simply, Moonlight Gale turned and ran towards Platycodon City.

If what he expected was correct, he should be a spy working with the Kingdom of Wind.

"Pfft"

There was a burning smell coming from the big tree next to him, and a blackened kunai was nailed to it.

It turned out that Winston turned back again when he saw that Moonlight Gale had turned his gun and was not going to tangle with him any more. Relying on the positioning of the kunai, the effective attack range of his lightning escape is extended a lot. Although the trick is easier to see through, smarter people will avoid lightning strikes as long as they avoid the kunai, but it is still enough to deal with enemies with their backs turned. Used, unless Moonlight Hayate has eyes on the back of his head.

At this time, Moonlight Gale was once again caught in a dilemma. As analyzed just now, even if he wanted to get rid of this psychic beast, it would not be a matter of time. His opponent's explosive power was stronger than his own. In addition, The harassment of Thunder Escape and the large-scale attack methods that limit Penetration Escape will put your retreat into a dilemma.

"hateful"

The kunai flying in front of him had a blue-white luster, and Moonlight Hayate didn't dare to chop it directly with his sword. The conductivity of the thunder escape was enough for him to drink a pot.

But when Moonlight Gale wanted to turn around and fight hard, this guy was very fast. The primeval forest was his home field. In addition to the blessing of thunder escape, he was also extremely flexible in moving on the treetops, let alone wind escape. Even Moonlight Hayate, who was using Konoha-style swordsmanship at full speed, could not defeat him.

Winston used the tactical policy taught by Zoji to perfection: "When the enemy advances, we retreat, when the enemy is stationed, we harass, when the enemy is tired, we attack, and when the enemy retreats, we pursue." The experience of his predecessors has been verified by countless wars. Even if there are omissions, It's not like Moonlight Hayate will be able to see through it in a short while.

So this cat-catching-mouse, mouse-cat trick will continue for some time.

On the other side, Sakichi, who is working hard, has arrived at Platycodon City.

As for where Yakushi Kabuto's group is, it's not too hard to find. I love that the battle between me and the Oto-nin took place on a huge rooftop. As long as Saki stands high enough, he can spot them.

"Over there" Sure enough, among the buildings, there was one that was particularly huge. Aren't they Kankuro and Temari standing on the cornices?

Gaara is located in the center of the roof. It seems that his state has not been turned on yet, there is no wind and sand, and there is no Shukaku.

"For safety reasons, I'd better stand farther away." After thinking this, Saki stood on the roof opposite Gaara. Due to the shielding of some kind of ninja tool on his body, Saki's breath was very weak, and in the dark night sky Under cover, no one seemed to notice his arrival.

From a distance, Zoji could roughly hear the intermittent sentences. Although he couldn't hear exactly what was said, he could already tell the tense atmosphere between the two sides from the speed of speaking.

"It's better not to let Gaara become Shukaku. After all, I'm not prepared to fight against the tailed beasts." At this thought, a kunai accurately pierced Gaara's feet.

"Listen to the sand ninjas below, you are surrounded by me. It is best to put down your weapons and be lenient if you confess, and be lenient if you resist." Although it was a bit of a joke, Saki felt that this was the most appropriate line for the occasion, and he deliberately controlled the volume. , plus the fact that Yakushi Kabuto chose a remote area, it would not wake up the city. You know, even if Gaara fights to the death with that person, it won't attract anyone's attention, let alone Saki's two voices.

The people below had different reactions. Kankuro and Temari were originally meant to be a show off, but Sakichi's wailing voice frightened them all. Surprised, the two of them showed angry expressions at Sakichi's provocation. Under this expression, there was more fear. If this guy is really an ANBU of Konoha and is not alone, then obviously the wind The country's plan has been discovered by Konoha, and what they are facing is likely to be encircled and suppressed by an assassination force.

With a whoop, Temari had already danced her folding fan, and Kankuro released his own puppet, attacking Sakichi with a burst of clicking sounds.

Gaara, on the other hand, rolled his eyes covered with dark circles, showing no emotion at all. At most, he showed disdain for the ants who came out to disrupt the situation.

Finally, there are the two big bosses in Konoha's collapse plan, Kabuto Yakushi and Maki. As the commander-in-chief of this mission, Maki must remain calm. But in this situation, he still showed some anxiety and even paranoia. He looked at Yakushi Kabuto with a deep look.

The implications are self-evident.

Why is Kabuto Yakushi's contact with Suna Ninja here being discovered by Konoha's ANBU? Is it because you are not good at studying and are being followed? Or are you a double agent? This is all Konoha's conspiracy. They want to use this second- and fifth-level Sound Ninja. By dragging the Kingdom of Wind into the war, Konoha will then have an excuse to eliminate the biggest scourge of Suna Ninja Village, and then be able to deal with Kirikage and Kumogakure Village with all its strength, triggering a new ninja war.

To be honest, people like this who are good at conspiracy have a big brain. In one thought, Ma Ji even thought through the details of Yakushi Kabuto and the third generation, and even Orochimaru was designed. The son of destiny who was responsible for the revitalization of Konoha rebelled against Konoha at the behest of the Third Generation, and what he did was the effective force that would destroy the entire Sand Ninja Village today.

Then the Kingdom of Fire, carrying the banner of righteousness, can completely destroy the Kingdom of Wind.

Okay, but after all, Ma Ji is a qualified leader. He did not impulsively attack the pharmacist Kabuto at this moment, but decided to check what happened first.

But he had lost trust in Kabuto Yakushi, and he took the opportunity to jump on the roof to distance himself from this guy who was unknown to us.

"Tsk, I've really found this guy." Although he knew that Sakichi would find a way to contact him, Yakushi Kabuto didn't expect this to be the case. It seemed that his secret operation was not as successful as he imagined. In other words, this guy has mastered some special search methods and can effectively control his own actions, or he has potential power that he doesn't know about. "But it is precisely because of this strength that he is qualified to cooperate with me."

Competent people are never afraid of competing with equally capable people. Only weak creatures will be jealous of others. It is not easy to admit that others are excellent. You need to have the same excellent vision yourself.

So Kabuto Yakushi is not in a hurry now. He can probably guess what Sakichi wants to tell him. It is just a transaction. Although he has already made a deal with Danzo, he still wants to maximize the benefits.

This is a qualified businessman. He can pee from toads he catches and catch their farts and sell them.

Kabuto Yakushi is also a person who likes to do business. What's more, Sakichi's value is not only reflected in the collapse of Konoha this time.

If this plan succeeds, Orochimaru will definitely be the one who successfully takes over Konoha, and then he will have to face a struggle with Danzo. Having such a guy next to Danzo is probably a way to drain the bottom of the pot. , planting spies has always been the most effective way for ninjas to succeed. Aren't you still a spy for the Red Sand Scorpion?

If the plan to collapse Konoha collapses this time, then Sakichi will still be a useful chess piece, provided of course that he does not die in the subsequent revenge attack. If he dies, he won't have to fulfill his promise. If he survives successfully, his value by Danzo's side will definitely increase greatly, and his investment will be rewarded. No matter how you look at it, this is a sure-profit deal, and Kabuto Yakushi is very interested in the matter of being a free man.

As for what can be done now, it is more about looking at the strength of this guy. A smart mind can determine a ninja's achievements, and strong strength can determine how far he goes on this road to success.

Yakushi Kabuto quietly came to the roof and saw Sakichi who was confronting Maki. The ninja tools scattered all over the roof fully demonstrated that a small-scale battle had just occurred here.

"Is he the only one?" Ma Ji was curious about this guy's courage. According to the information collected by Kankuro and Temari, he was the only one in the battle just now. A standard Anbu template with outstanding physical skills, excellent insight, and excellent intelligence gathering capabilities. He can effectively respond to attacks from Kankuro and Temari.

"He's the only one" Kankuro, who controlled the crow, locked Sakichi from afar.

This makes Marky a little embarrassed. Is it because his group of people have been underestimated, or is the opponent delaying time, or their target is not his group of people.

When he saw Kabuto Yakushi walking up step by step, Ma Ji had to focus on Kabuto Yakushi, fearing that this guy was on the same side as the ANBU in front of him and would catch him off guard with his sudden attack.

But what Maki is even more worried about is Gaara behind him. This is the nuclear weapon of Suna Ninja Village, and it is also their trump card to challenge Konoha.

"Temari, go and appease Gaara, and keep an eye on that Sound Ninja." After weighing the pros and cons, Maki had no idea how to deal with the current triangle relationship, "Kankuro, take down this ANBU, I need more information."

Sakichi standing opposite naturally saw Yakushi Kabuto, and from his unscrupulous smile, he naturally found that he recognized him, but judging from his on-the-spot attitude, it seemed that he was not prepared to reveal his identity. , obviously waiting for something.

What are you waiting for? You're probably trying to prove your strength.

From Maki's words, Saki also saw that he did not trust Kabuto Yakushi 100%. In other words, after Temari left, a stable triangle relationship emerged on the scene. This was probably intentional by Kabuto Yakushi. So, Isn't this deadlock just a matter of defeating Kankuro?

You have to give it a try no matter what, otherwise your trip will be in vain

Of course, Sakichi will not be too stubborn. As long as he finds signs that Ma Ji or Yakushi Kabuto are taking action, he will retreat immediately. He won't be like his stupid brother who bites the bullet and fights against the two bosses.

And he has prepared fireworks to call for help. If there is any trouble, Konoha's security team in Platycodon City will arrive quickly. Not to mention that if Winston sees the fireworks calling for help, he will also attract Moonlight Gale, which is also Saki's back-up plan.

In terms of apparent strength, Konoha far surpassed the Suna Ninja in Platycodon City.

"Puppet master? Then I'll fight with a puppet." However, Sakichi's time is limited after all, so he should use Kankuro to increase his presence as soon as possible. Pretending is something that requires methods, and the most effective one is to beat your opponent to pieces in the areas he is good at.

"The decision is yours, Master Ji"

"Nani Konoha actually has a puppet master." Although he had long been suspicious of the large scroll Sakichi was carrying, Kankuro really didn't think about puppets. This is the pride of the Sand Ninja Village. When will Konoha learn from this? According to Kankuro's information, there is no puppet master in Konoha at all. Most of the time, this kind of large scroll is used to seal ninja tools and fight with others. The use of psychic beast pairs.

It can be seen from the story line of Konoha that the sealing technique in the Kingdom of Wind started relatively late. Although Shukaku, a powerful person with his own sealing technique, is by his side, most of what he relies on is still instinct. Kankuro didn't use scrolls to store his puppets until he formed an alliance with Konoha, so it can be inferred that at this stage he probably didn't think of such a saucy operation at all.

"This is not something profound." To modern people, puppets are really not something particularly awesome. Robots are much more powerful than this thing. It's just that the threshold for operation is relatively high. Due to Konoha's environment, this thing cannot become popular.

"If you speak arrogantly, I will show you how powerful Suna Ninja Village is." Kankuro had an unfortunate childhood, which caused him to have a bad temper. Especially when faced with a careless guy like Sakichi, his patience is zero. Facing the puppet covered by a piece of rag, he even lost interest in testing, and the crows that cackled and bit directly towards Zoji. Although quite angry, he has not forgotten the weakness of the puppet master.
