Chapter 159: Swapping Roles

The moment Muichiro Tokitou appeared, Suigetsu's head almost turned 180 degrees to look at Konan.Si.Usagi 520. Read the latest chapter of the correct novel

He had been away from the Land of Rain for more than a month, and Muichiro had been resurrected less than ten days ago, so the two did not know each other.

Another person who also knows very little about Muichiro is Kabuto Yakushi.

His daily activities range from hospital to school to dormitory. He only heard from students that a cute-looking boy came to the village, but he has never seen it with his own eyes.

Now that he finally saw his true appearance, he immediately sensed a sense of familiarity in Muichiro's hair color and expression, and glanced at Konan with a meaningful look.

Just when Xiaonan felt that she had never experienced such an embarrassing situation in her life, Gui Deng Shui Yue was worthy of being a righteous disciple.

He actually completely ignored the atmosphere, pointed at Muichiro Tokitou and asked Konan loudly: "Why have you never said that you have such a big child?"

"Have a child?"

"Child?"

"ah?"

Ghost Deng Shuiyue's voice vibrated back and forth in Xiaonan's mind like a curse, and even in the blood vessels of her body.

Her skin was hot and it felt as if there were countless ants crawling on her body.

She imagined that the situation of having a private conversation with Butterfly Ninja was difficult enough.

But she never expected that someone would yell out her suspicions as if they were facts.

Just when she didn't know how to behave - whether to take the opportunity to question Butterfly Ninja, or to deny and draw a line, Fusugawa Genya, who was originally following Muichiro, walked up quickly and kicked Kito Suigetsu's calf.

It becomes a burst of water.

"Ouch! What are you doing?! I almost have no chakra. What should I do if I can't connect my legs?"

"Then get out of here! Stop talking nonsense here!"

【here you go.】

At least three people in the room had the same idea. As for who it was, I won’t say for the moment.

Pushing Suigetsu aside who was full of anger, Fusugawa Xuanya then asked about the business: "Senior Shinobu, what happened?"

Kabuto Yakushi silently pushed up his glasses.

He always felt that Immortal Kawagenya's name for Butterfly Ninja was very strange.

The word "senior" is not necessarily used to address elders in their culture.

More often, the terms "senior" and "junior" are used between two people, which means that they once attended the same school or worked in the same department.

The genes of Butterfly Ninja are almost identical to those of Senju Hashirama, so it is almost obvious that she is a cyborg. So why would someone call her senpai for a cyborg?

On the other hand, this Immortal Kawakawa Genya is obviously a corpse with the same hair color and bone quality as Kimimaro, but he happens to be the same as the Butterfly Ninja, with a surname that is not even close to the blood successor limit. It's really

The more I think about it, the more suspicious it becomes.

Unfortunately, Kabuto Yakushi did not have the opportunity to obtain the genetic data of Immortal River for testing.

But Yakushi Kabuto is almost certain that the origin of Immortal Kawagenya is very similar to that of Butterfly Ninja, and she may even have created it with her own hands.

Now, a third suspicious child appeared, with hair color and expression similar to Xiao Nan.

When the Butterfly Ninja sent the crow to deliver the message, he said "Yizhu's identity", what exactly does this sentence mean?

Could it be said that these artificial humans have an organization in private? What does the word "pillar" mean? Leader?

Kabuto Yakushi waited silently, waiting for Muichiro Tokiro to call the Butterfly Ninja.

If they are also "seniors", then things will be really interesting.

"Don't be nervous. I called you here because I want you to see these things."

Butterfly Ninja pointed behind him.

"..."

Genya and Muichiro looked at the water tank and then at the Butterfly Ninja, their eyes were synchronized with confusion.

Butterfly Ninja glanced back and realized that the octopuses were missing.

"Do you still have this ability?"

She took out an electric shock prod from her desk, put the electric shock head into the water, and then pressed the button——

The four octopuses in the tank appeared struggling and twisted.

Just as Kiden Suigetsu said, this kind of octopus that kept two hundred fog ninjas busy for two months was very cunning, and its mimicry ability was actually developed to the point of becoming invisible.

"It's okay now." Butterfly Ninja looked at the two of them, or Muichiro to be more precise, "Observe carefully to see if there is anything strange about them."

Muichiro immediately understood, and his originally slightly distracted gaze suddenly focused and shot towards one of the octopuses like a sharp arrow.

After a moment of silence, his face as relaxed as a cloud suddenly tightened, "It's different from other octopuses I've seen before."

"Be more specific?" Butterfly leaned forward and asked, "What's wrong?"

Although she had already seen some clues through dissection, what she could observe through the world was more comprehensive after all.

"Its siphon is not connected to its digestive organs."

Muichiro pointed through the glass to what most people thought was the "mouth" of the octopus.

In fact, this is the place where normal octopuses excrete and spray ink.

If the octopus needs to move faster, the siphon will also spray water behind it, acting like a rocket thruster.

"Wait a minute..." Xiaonan interrupted Wuichiro a little strangely, "You, can you see directly inside its body?"

What is this? Konoha's Byakugan?

"Isn't that just like a teacher?"

Suigetsu, who was reconnecting his legs, shouted: "Wait a minute, are you the son of the angel aunt, or the teacher's twin brother? I remember that guy's name is not Sasuke..."

"Don't make a fuss, Anjuro can do the same thing."

Butterfly Ren choked up Guideng Shuiyue, who continued to think divergently, and explained by the way.

"Muichiro was discovered by Giyuu in the Land of Snow. He is born with the ability to learn anything quickly. This way of observation should be learned from Giyuu."

This statement simply reversed cause and effect. But it effectively dispelled Xiaonan and Shuiyue's doubts.

Of course Kabuto Yakushi didn't believe a word of it. But he was very discerning and didn't say a word that was unnecessary.

"So, is there something wrong with it not being connected to the digestive organs?"

Immortal Kawagenya asked the question at the right time.

He was illiterate and didn't quite understand why Butterfly Ninja was so nervous to call them back because octopuses couldn't poop.

"It has no excretory function," Muichiro replied grimly, "meaning it can completely digest the food it eats."

"Wait a minute..." Xuanya looked at Muichiro in disbelief, then at the Butterfly Ninja, "What do you mean?"

They both nodded at the same time.

They usually look the most relaxed and comfortable, but today they also showed unusual dignity.

In Xuan Mi's opinion, there is only one kind of creature in the world that does not need to excrete, and that is ghosts.

They may spit out the parts they don't like, such as the bones they have eaten, but the digested food will be directly converted into blood in the ghost's body instead of feces.

At the same time, the octopuses seemed to have finally recovered from the electric shock, but they clung to the glass wall of the water tank with a tacit understanding, as if they were trying to chew off Muichiro's fingers despite a layer of obstruction.

Butterfly Ninja remembered this scene.

"Of course, this alone is not enough to draw a conclusion."

The butterfly ninja consciously moved closer to the water tank. Sure enough, two more octopuses gave up Muichiro's fingers and seemed more interested in her. "Is there anything else strange?"

"There is a strange thing growing at the root of each of their arms and legs..."

Muichiro tilted his head in confusion, "I can't tell its use at the moment."

"What is that?" Xiaonan asked.

"It is the independent brain of the octopus that controls the wrist." Yakushi Doudou said: "The average octopus has three hearts and nine brains, each of which is responsible for different functions."

Just the description of multiple brains and hearts gave Immortal Kawagenya some bad associations.

Suddenly, Muichiro spoke up and said, "But what's on the arms and legs of this octopus is not just a brain, but a whole set of undeveloped organs."

"Ah?" Gui Deng Shui Yue didn't know how many times he used this word today.

"That's what I mean," the Butterfly Ninja walked to the desk with a solemn expression, lifted the wooden box that was upside down on the table, and revealed the dissected octopus body.

"If you only attack the head and body of the octopus, you can certainly kill it..."

Everyone gathered around and noticed that the open octopus should have been dead for a long time, but its tentacles were still jumping around.

However, after being illuminated by the light, the tentacles pretended to be dead and calmed down, as if it did so because it felt everyone's gaze.

"But each of its arms and legs is absorbing the remaining nutrients in the head and body, and cultivating the undeveloped organs in each body into shape."

Muichiro stared at the corpse on the table and broadcast live what was happening under its skin.

"That is to say," a rare trace of surprise flashed in Yakushi Kabuto's eyes, "if they absorb the nutrients from the corpse parts, they will change from one to eight? No wonder two hundred ninjas have been cleaning them for so long and couldn't help them.

Nothing.”

"That should be it."

The butterfly ninja suddenly understood something.

"I remember that almost all Kirigakure ninjas carry swords. I guess the way they clean up these octopuses is to chop or stab them in the sea, right?"

"That's what they do."

Kiden Suigetsu nodded, "Except for the woman Terumi Mei and her tribe, who directly dissolve the octopus with acid, most of the rest of them just split open the octopus's big head with a knife and that's it."

(Note: The bulge on the top of the octopus is actually its body. Its head is located in the middle part connecting the body and the arms and legs, which is the small area around the eyes.)

Then, he clapped his hands together: "I didn't think it was important so I didn't say it before. These little octopuses indeed only have eight legs...

"But those big guys that are half a man tall, at least started out with twelve legs."

In other words, it seems that only one has been killed, but there are at least twelve more that are gestating.

"What a wonderful creature... Such a powerful ability to survive, even tougher than snakes and lizards. It seems like something Orochimaru-sama would be interested in."

Kabuto Yakushi adjusted the frame of his mirror, "But I have never heard of such an interesting existence before. It looks like a new species.

"I'm really curious as to how it evolved into what it is now. Even if we don't mention the ability to split, the fact that it doesn't need to be excreted already violates most of the basic rules of life."

"Yes, I asked that slug that made a sibilant sound before."

Gui Deng Shuiyue added: "Even after it eats, it has to poop."

"A species more special than immortals? This is really unexpected."

"Do you remember Hidan?" The Butterfly Ninja suddenly looked at Yakushi Kabuto.

"Of course, how could you forget? A person who can survive with only one head, even Nebe and Orochimaru-sama want to know his secret."

Kabuto Yakushi nodded: "What, Miss Shinobi, do you think there is some kind of connection between Hidan and this octopus?"

"Ah!" When Hidan was mentioned, Kito Suigetsu suddenly showed an exaggerated expression of "I remembered": "That shark!"

Hearing this word, Butterfly Ninja, Genya and Muichiro exchanged looks with each other. Konan, who had been listening in, was completely confused.

"What shark? What the hell are you talking about?"

"It was the night when Kirigakure Village attacked Yu Ninja. The teacher chopped off Hidan's head, but the part below the guy's neck was swallowed by a shark that was channeled by the ninjas of the Mikaki clan."

Kito Suigetsu recalled: "Later, the teacher tortured Hidan's head on the way to the Kingdom of Water. The blood from his neck dripped into the sea, causing several wild sharks to mutate and even grow a reflex capable of reflecting.

The crystal scales of sunlight cannot even damage its skin with ordinary weapons.

"According to the teacher, just a few drops of Hidan's blood allowed those sharks to complete millions of years of evolution in a few days..."

"That's not evolution, that's genetic mutation."

Butterfly Shinobu corrected him sternly: "At present, these octopuses that have mutated super-digestive abilities should have been affected by the shark that devoured Hidan's torso.

"Either the shark died for some reason and the body was eaten, and these octopuses or their ancestors were among the eaters.

"Either the shark was injured, the blood spread, and the octopus was infected. Of course, other possibilities cannot be ruled out..."

What the Butterfly Ninja is most worried about is that the shark's special characteristics are discovered and used by someone with ulterior motives.

After all, it is a psychic beast.

Just like a slug, a psychic beast doesn't necessarily sign a contract with just one person.

Although the dry Kakiha whale is dead, the other contractors of that shark will find out the clues sooner or later. It is only a matter of time.

Unless all the members of the Ganshi clan are dead.

"Is this certain?"

Kabuto Yakushi, who once wanted to discover immortality through Hidan's blood, didn't believe in this simple visual diagnosis.

He applied to the butterfly ninja: "Why don't we take these octopuses back and do a test on the machine to see if we can find the same components as Hidan in their blood..."

"It doesn't have to be so troublesome."

Genya Immortal didn't have the patience, so he put his hand directly into the water tank, grabbed one and held it tightly in his hand, "If it has ghost cells in its body, I'll know after I eat it!"

[‘Ghost’?] Kabuto Yakushi thought, [It’s a quite appropriate title...]

Gui Deng Shui Yue: "Hey, why don't you bake it first? There might be parasites in this thing!"

But Genya Fusugawa had already cut off the eight arms and legs of the octopus and threw them at his feet. He stuffed the swaying head and body into his mouth, chewed it loudly, and then swallowed it with a "gudong" sound.

"How does it taste?" Gui Deng Shui Yue obviously looked cold, but still approached curiously, "Can you eat it without dipping the sauce?"

However, Xuan Mi just pushed him away in disgust, closed his eyelids, and silently felt the changes in his body.

After three long seconds, Immortal Kawagenya's eyes opened.

"Hiss—" Gui Deng inhaled like water and moon, while retreating, but the others gathered around to observe carefully.

Immortal Genya's originally white sclera turned into a misty gray, and was covered with red and black bloodshot threads that crisscrossed and spread like tree branches.

These eyes looked like they belonged to a corpse that had died of suffocation.

But this abnormality only lasted for two or three breaths and then subsided.

"Sure enough, it's that guy!"

Genya Immortal Kawakawa hunched over his body as if exhausted, and covered his head with his hands like a delirium patient, "I won't remember that feeling wrong! That's his smell, I won't remember it wrong!"

Separated by a world, separated by a boundary between life and death!

The blood of Onimbutsuji Mukai once again lingered on the taste buds of Immortal Kawa Genya.

Even if it’s only a few seconds!

Butterfly Ren's fair face is almost transparent.

Even though she had expected it for a long time, it still gave her a big shock when the expectation was confirmed.

After she came to this world, the first meaningful word Yiyong said to her was "shark".

For three years, she thought that there had been no news about the shark and that it might have died in the depths of the ocean. However, it finally surfaced and began to affect the world.

"Why are you making such an expression?"

Ghost Light Suigetsu watched the familiar smile disappear from Butterfly Ninja's face, and felt even more nervous than when he saw her smile: "The Kingdom of Rain is so far away from the sea, so it can't affect us anyway. Besides, it's already gone now.

Now that we know the characteristics of this octopus, the worst thing we can do is write a letter and tell Terumi Mei how to solve it..."

"Use your brain and think about it."

Muichiro stared at him and tapped his temples, "That's the sea. If ghost blood floods in the sea, it will definitely affect not only this octopus, but all the surrounding marine life."

"How long is the coastline of this continent? How many people live on the seaside? How much seafood is transported inland every day? How many people have the habit of eating raw octopus or sashimi?"

Kabuto Yakushi was the first to react: "So Shinobu-san is worried that if Hidan's cells enter the body of the eater again with the fish, he will eventually accumulate in the human body. So by that time, mutations will occur

It’s human beings.”

"Just like those evil cultists in Tang Ninja Village back then!" Gui Deng Shuiyue thought of the night that shocked him so much, "Those guys can eat people!"

Killing Suigetsu and killing each other was commonplace in the Kiri ninja. But taking out a human's liver and eating it was his first time seeing it, and he still felt frightened when he thought about it.

"Xuan Mi's change just lasted only for a few seconds, which means that these octopuses have very few flying cells in their bodies and have not mutated into stronger abilities."

Back then, a small piece of meat from the four-and-a-half-year-old Tengu was able to ghost the immortal Kawagenya for an entire night. The Hidan cells in this octopus were estimated to be less than one ten thousandth of that small piece.

But once the numbers are added up, the effect is still very impressive.

Butterfly Ninja raised his head: "If we can eliminate these marine creatures from the source, we may be able to avoid the worst thing from happening. Ghost lights, water moons!"

"Eh?" Shuiyue was suddenly called out, and Shuiyue was a little at a loss.

"You already know how to deal with this creature, right?"

Gui Deng Shui Yue scratched the back of his head and replied tentatively: "If you catch it on land and burn it to ashes, you absolutely cannot return it to the sea with its legs and feet intact?"

"That's possible." Butterfly Ninja changed his voice, "Or you can gather all the octopuses in a pit and let Terumi Mei use acid to completely destroy them from the cellular level. This is the safest method of all.

"

If one had seen Onoki's Dust Release, the butterfly ninja's safest method would probably be to eliminate this octopus at the molecular level.

"Wait a minute!" Gui Deng Shui Yue was inexplicably surprised and asked for confirmation: "Do you mean to let me go back?"

As long as he is not squatting in the hospital and serving a chamber pot, he is willing to do anything.

Besides, catching an octopus with invisible abilities sounds like quite interesting.

"Your ability is just perfect for catching fish.

"In addition to you, Bai Ye, let's go back together. Ice Escape can have better effects when used in the sea."

This is something Ninja Butterfly has carefully considered.

Since we are going to interfere with the mission of Kirigakure Village, it is best to choose some familiar faces.

"Miss Xiaonan, look?"

Bai now works in the Government Affairs Center and is considered a subordinate of Xiao Nan, so the Butterfly Ninja will ask for her permission.

"Hydrangea can do his work first." Xiaonan nodded in agreement.

Although Xiaonan still doesn't think this matter will affect the Kingdom of Rain, Bai seems to have family members over the sea, and it would be unkind of her not to allow it.

"Then let's decide."

Momochi Zabuza was still in the Water Country, and Shiro wanted to go back and take a look for a day or two. The Butterfly Ninja didn't think that the other party would reject this proposal at all.

"You must do your best to eliminate this creature. If necessary, you can ask the Great Slug Immortal for help."

"Okay, I'll inform him now!" Gui Deng Shuiyue said and jumped out of the window to leave.

"Not now!" Butterfly Ninja stopped him and looked to the other side, "Muichiro, before Shiro leaves, go find him to learn ice escape."

"Wait a minute..." Xiaonan felt that she was a little abrupt after she spoke.

But having said it all, let’s finish it: “Miss Ren, do you want to ask this child to go with you?”

That's the land of water! Even though its reputation has improved in recent years, it is still the land of blood mist.

She had been there once with Nagato and Madara, and had a very bad impression of the Kingdom of Water.

Xiaonan didn't know what Muichiro's strength was, but she only knew that this kid was not very nice to talk to. If he was sent to that place, he would definitely not receive any courtesy.

"No." The butterfly ninja certainly knew what Xiaonan was worried about, "Kiden Suigetsu said that those octopuses are from the country of waves. Then Muichiro and Genmi, you two, go there and investigate."

Which fish have problems, and to what extent, only people who have access to the world can do this.

Moreover, the country of Waves is isolated overseas and has poor resources, so the possibility of encountering ninjas is very small.

These two people had no experience fighting ninjas, but their personalities were very prone to conflicts, so it was a good choice to go there.

"Okay." Xuan Mi nodded. The first time he left the village, he was not as excited as expected because of the ghost blood.

However, he was quite grateful for his trust in Butterfly Ninja, so Xuanya secretly made up his mind to do things well this time.

"But as for ice escape..." Muichiro stretched out his foot and stepped on the arm and foot that was thrown to the ground. The latter was quickly frozen hard by a layer of frost, "I have already learned it."

Kabuto Yakushi's pupils shrank. Although Ice Release is a synthetic blood successor boundary, and its owners are not rare, you have only been in the Land of Rain for a few days? You can actually synthesize a blood successor boundary?

The Butterfly Ninja had already expected it and nodded gently: "In this case, you can have a good rest tonight..."

"Miss Shinobi, I have a suggestion." Xiaonan suddenly spoke.

"Please tell me." Butterfly Shinobi was afraid that Konan would say something that shouldn't let Muichiro go out at this time.

"Why don't you just leave this child to me this afternoon and evening."

Xiao Nan didn't know how much courage he mustered up to say this, "I think he is not only talented in ice escape, but also in the art of God's Paper User.

"Although this technique itself is not as powerful as the Blood Succession Limit, it is more versatile and has many variations to cope with various crises.

"On the other hand, I want to see how far this child can learn..."

She has already figured it out.

Seeing the abnormal state of Butterfly Ninja today, it would be inappropriate to discuss Muichiro's matter with her.

It would be better to take this opportunity, firstly, to teach Wuichiro more ways to protect himself; secondly, when they get along, she can also find out the origin of this child.

Once the matter is just a mistake, this will save you from speaking rashly and leaving a bad impression on the Butterfly Ninja.

On the other side, Butterfly Ren was silent for nearly ten seconds.

It wasn't until Xiaonan's nervous heartbeat almost shook the paper flowers off her chest that she said, "Muichiro, you can decide for yourself."

"Origami is very interesting." Muichiro didn't answer clearly whether he was willing or not, but the three words "very interesting" were enough to make Xiaonan feel happy.

"so be it."

The Butterfly Ninja knew that nothing was more important than the blood of Hidan on the other side of the sea.

All she wants now is that the two of them don't get along too awkwardly. "Everyone, let's go get ready. We'll meet outside Yuyin Village at eight o'clock tomorrow. Yakushi Kabuto, you can stay here for a while."

Soon, everyone was jumping out of the windows and out the door, and only two fake smile geniuses were left in the office.

"I decided to do some experiments with Hidan."

The butterfly ninja sat behind the desk, and Kabuto Yakushi stood opposite her.

"Please go back and look for the previous information, and then take a rest, because you may stay up all night tonight. If you doze off, I will be very troubled."

"Since it's something I'm interested in, I can't sleep just thinking about it."

Yakushi Kabuto made no secret of his interest in Hidan.

"However, when it comes to the topic of sleep... I am very curious about how Uchiha Giyuu would react if he knew what happened today.

"After all, whether it was intentional or not, that shark escaped from his grasp."

"..."

Butterfly Ninja's expression did not change, but he was actually having a headache.

Since Giyuu opened his Sharingan all day long to accept his emotions, his whole temperament has improved greatly.

To use Muichiro's words to describe it, Giyuu in the previous life looked like a lifeless ornament, but this time he met, he looked like a mimosa-like plant - I can't say that he was full of vitality, but at least he had some life.

It looks like a walking corpse anymore.

If Hidan's blood only infected animals in the sea, then everything would be fine, and Giyuu would probably just blame himself for affecting the lives of fishermen for a while.

But once a human becomes a monster like an evil cultist, or even dies, she doesn't know what will happen.

"Please go out first."

Hearing the hint of tiredness in Butterfly Ninja's voice, Yakushi Kabuto bowed slightly and left.

The butterfly sat there and endured, but its brain was spinning at high speed like an airplane propeller.

About five minutes later, she had an idea, and the seal channeled Xing Jurou's Yao Yao.

She first briefly told Yao about the octopus infestation in the Kingdom of Water, and then explained her purpose of summoning it:

"The Kingdom of Iron is a coastal peninsula, and it should be a country where seafood is the main food.

"Tell Anjuro and ask him to investigate the seafood markets in the major cities of the Iron Kingdom to see if there are any abnormally developed fish.

"In addition, please ask him to pay attention to whether there has been a recent surge in patients diagnosed with rabies, delirium and other mental illnesses in the local area. Especially those who are rich."

The situation in the ninja world is a bit like neon in ancient times. Many upper classes do not eat the meat of four-legged beasts, so they eat delicious raw fish sashimi instead.

Most ordinary people, even if they eat fish, eat it grilled, so in this case, there is not that big of a hidden danger.

"Yes." Kaname Kaname knew the seriousness and made sure that he remembered every word of Butterfly Ninja before asking: "Is there anything else I need to convey to Lord Anjuro?"

"The last thing..."

The Butterfly Ninja thought about it for a while before deciding: "When Anjuro has finished handling these matters, ask him to come back as soon as possible to replace me in guarding the Rain Hidden Village. I... need to go out."

"Yes!" About to turn into a ball of smoke and disappear without a trace, Butterfly reluctantly stood up and slowly walked to the window to look at the sky.

Unfortunately, today, like most days, we can't see the sun.

Because she had to guard against the creature named "Ze" in Xiaonan's mouth, one of her and Xing Jurou had to guard here.

Anjuro can sense Zetsu's malice through the Nine-Tails chakra he borrowed from Uzumaki Naruto.

As for the butterfly ninja, you can learn about the strange creatures appearing in any corner through the communication between insects at any time.

For the past three years, the Butterfly Ninja has been guarding the Amegakure Village, while Anjuro is like Helios's Sun Chariot, touring the entire Ninja world.

But this time, she had to switch roles.

Going on a business trip for about ten days...
