The central tower of Loulan Kingdom has a total of sixty floors and a height of 200 meters.
It has reached the height of a skyscraper in the modern world. This kind of building can be said to be unique in the ninja world at this time.
Back then, Sunagakure rebelled against Ren Baizu and transformed into Minister An Lushan. Although he did enslave the people of Loulan to make puppets for him, he had to admit that he also brought many things to Loulan.
Now Loulan people can enjoy heating, running water, electric lights, and even elevators and apartments in this desert. They really have to thank him for building all this with dragon veins and puppets.
certainly.
An Lushan's operation method is not smart enough. He can completely make the people of Loulan willingly work for him and for Loulan, but he chooses the most stupid forced servitude to work for himself.
This is the limitation of thinking.
On the top floor of this central tower is the main hall where the Queen uses to meet with outsiders.
At this time, Sara was sitting on the throne, looking calmly at the four Kumogakure ninjas who suddenly appeared in the hall like ghosts.
"I never expected that you, the Queen of Loulan, would still stay here."
One of the chunin, wearing a black shirt and a one-shouldered white coat, holding a dark and sharp kunai in his hand, looked at Sara in surprise and said.
"As a queen, you should be with your country."
After saying that, she saw a sneer on her face: "And you are Kumogakure ninjas, one of the five great ninja villages, and you are not those barbaric, lowly, damn bandits. I have nothing to worry about, right?"
"..."
The four Kumogakure ninjas suddenly turned pale, but they didn't know how to answer. The leading chuunin reacted and laughed: "In that case, why do you want the citizens to flee in advance?"
"Because I thought the attackers were those barbaric, low-level, damned bandits, so that led to the current misunderstanding. But who would have thought that the Kumogakure ninja, one of the five great ninja villages, would appear here, don't you think so?
?”
Sarah immediately responded unceremoniously.
This time, the Kumogakure chuunin was completely incapable of dealing with him. His eloquence was really no match for him.
But it doesn’t matter, the other person’s life and death is in your own hands!
"Queen, you are young, this is how the world is. No matter how powerful you are, if you don't have the strength, you are still a lamb to be slaughtered. I advise you to be gentler, so that you may be favored by an adult in our country~"
"Hahahahaha!"
For a moment, the solemn and empty hall was filled with the wanton laughter of four Kumogakure ninjas.
This made Sarah on the throne extremely embarrassed and angry. She subconsciously clenched her pink fists tightly, but she had no choice but to grit her teeth and stare at them.
"I want to see your thunder shadow, and I want to ask why they attacked Loulan for no reason. Has Tangtang Yunyin Village also started committing banditry?"
Upon hearing this, Yunyin and the other four stopped laughing and looked at each other.
After all, Sara is also the queen of a country. If she wants to see the Raikage-sama, they must be responsible for passing on the message. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, she will definitely be the unlucky one.
"Yageyin, go and report!"
Kumogakure chuunin finally gave an order to one of the genin.
Although the man named Ya Geyin had an unhappy expression on his face, he still agreed honestly and left quickly through the broken window.
"Then my Queen, please wait quietly for the Raikage-sama's reply."
After saying that, the Kumogakure chuunin put the kunai back into the ninja tool bag on his leg, then leaned against the stone pillar beside him and closed his eyes to rest.
They had determined that there was no one else in Loulan City except the queen, and there was Lord Raikage and his own troops outside the city, so they thought they could rest for a while.
Ever since the Raikage-sama decided to launch an attack after the Sunagakure Village lost the Sandaime Kazekage, they had circled more than half a circle along the coastline of the Shinobi World Continent.
Let’s not talk about the journey from Yunyin Village to the Kingdom of Thunder.
They need to take a boat from the original Uzumaki Country peninsula to arrive at the Country of Tea in the south of the Country of Fire, and then use the Country of Tea as a springboard to run forward from the sea and break into the territory of the Country of Wind.
The next step was to fight against the sand ninjas who were blocking them. Fortunately, the Sandaime Raikage-sama always took the lead, like the sharpest thunder blade, tearing apart all the sand ninjas in front of him.
It's a pity that less than 50 kilometers away from Sand Hidden Village, it was blocked by that Luosha with endless placer gold.
Considering that his own water and food were not enough, Lord Raikage had no choice but to announce his retreat, but he did not expect to destroy the small country of Loulan along the way.
In fact, he felt that there was no need to destroy the country, and even if he wanted to come to Loulan, he would not dare to refuse the provision of clean water, food, and a temporary resting place.
But since the Raikage-sama has decided this, then he, a young chuunin, has no right to raise objections.
It's just that I am really tired both physically and mentally.
It would be great if I could soak in a hot spring, then hold my soft body and have a good sleep...
"Um?"
However, the next second, he suddenly felt something cold in front of his throat. His body was about to react as soon as he was excited, but it was too late, and the cold touch passed by in a flash!
The Adam's apple that was still throbbing was easily cut open by an invisible sharp blade, and warm and scarlet blood immediately flowed out.
"Uh, ah————"
He wanted to shout something, but the blood that surged up blocked his trachea and made no sound. The last scene that Tong Kong saw, which was shaking violently, was the scene of two other genin being assassinated.
As for the Substitution Technique, this basic Ninjutsu is just a deception technique that uses high-speed movement and invisibility to instantly swap the position of an object with one's own.
In other words, it needs to be prepared in advance and the opponent does not have strong perception ability to have a greater success rate.
It's not a life-saving skill like in some games where you can escape at any time by pressing a button.
This kind of ninjutsu does exist.
That is Yin Zhenaki, one of the Mangekyō Sharingan Jutsu.
But this Kumogakure chuunin couldn't figure out why there were enemies in Loulan?
He could only take this question to the Pure Land and ask the Immortal of Six Paths...
"you!"
Sarah stood up from the throne in shock and watched six ninjas in black slowly emerge from the air.
The three Kumogakure ninjas who were so proud before were struggling desperately at their feet, clutching their throats. It didn't take long before they lay down in a pool of blood and became quiet. Occasionally, their bodies would twitch slightly.
"It's really good. It seems to be as expected. You don't have to worry about normal communication."
Feng Ren looked at Sara and said, his expression and tone were very serious and serious, giving people a very reliable sense of security.
"I already have a rough idea of what's going on here from your previous conversation."
"Then Queen Loulan, I think you and your country need our help very much now. How about hiring ninjas from our Hai Ninja Village?"
"Hainin Village..." Sarah felt a little disappointed.
For a moment just now, he thought it was the ninjas from Konoha Village who came to save him again, and then he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Forget it, there are more than 3,000 Kumogakure ninjas outside the city, even the Sandaime Raikage is there. A small ninja village like you cannot afford to offend them, so run away quickly."
She had never heard of a sea ninja village, so she naturally regarded it as some unknown small ninja village.
"That's not possible. Looking at the current situation, no matter whether you hire them or not, we have to fight against those ninjas from Hidden Cloud Village!"
Feng Ren looked at the sky outside the city through the cracked window and sneered.
The goal of the World Government is to conquer the entire ninja world. How can we avoid it just because we meet a mere Raikage?
