Shiren blended into the crowd and entered the square of Daming Mansion.
Even before the sky was fully lit, people were already a little excited, as if they themselves were going to become famous.
No one knows the disguises of the four of them. Except for Chi Luan, who is the captain and is in charge of the overall situation, the rest of them don't know each other even if they meet.
However, not long after Toneri entered the square, a ninja wearing an Iwa-nin forehead protector came not far from him.
When I noticed the person coming, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Just try to stay calm.
After confirming that the Iwa Ninja was really coming towards him, he turned his palm over and a kunai landed at the junction of his sleeve and palm. Once something was wrong, he could be prepared whether it was an attack or a defense.
"Has it been discovered?" Shiren was slightly confused.
You must know that what he uses is the "Jutsu of erasing the face". Even a powerful ninja will find it difficult to detect abnormalities in him without contact.
But when the rock ninja was two steps away from him, he suddenly made a strange gesture.
Seeing this gesture, I was stunned.
Because this gesture was a unified gesture that they unified before the start of this mission in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts and collisions when they met each other. Only the four of them knew it.
"Could it be that someone has already sneaked into the Iwa Ninja team?"
If this is the case, then the ability of these roots must be re-examined.
After confirming his identity, he put away the kunai in his hand, followed the flow of the crowd, and walked quietly towards the direction of the Iwa ninja.
Finally, without attracting anyone's attention, Toneri followed the Iwa nin to a deserted corner.
"Who are you?!" I couldn't help but asked in a deep voice.
The Iwa Ninja, who originally looked a bit honest, suddenly became very cold, and with a straight face, he said calmly:
"Mingmao, disguise yourself as this rock ninja and slowly approach the mission target. Don't act without permission. Wait for my notification. Once a disturbance occurs, it will be the best time."
Listening to the tone and manner of speaking, Shiren recognized this person.
He spoke slightly tentatively: "Chi Luan?"
After pondering for a moment, the rock ninja nodded and said, "It's me."
Then, without explaining anything, he just took out a scroll with scrawled writing from his arms and handed it to Toneri: "This is some information I learned from his mind, which should be of some help to your lurking."
.”
Shiren took the scroll.
Immediately, he saw that the Iwa Ninja in front of him slowly took out a kunai from his ninja tool bag and placed it on his neck indifferently.
"Remember to clean it up."
Neither his voice nor his eyes contained any emotion, but the hand holding the kunai was trembling slightly, as if his body was instinctively resisting what he wanted to do.
However, these resistances are in vain, as there is a huge gap between the strength of the body and the strength of the will.
The kunai cut his throat, and blood spurted out instantly.
The originally indifferent eyes disappeared, and what was revealed next were eyes showing panic, fear and despair. It was this kind of eyes that was worthy of what he had just done before.
He dropped his kunai and covered his neck, as if this would stop the blood from flowing out.
The mouth opened slightly and the final sound came out, but it could not form a complete word.
His eyes gradually began to wander, and Toneri caught his fallen body in time and gently placed it on the ground without causing any movement.
Looking at this Iwa Ninja who has completely lost his life and doesn't even know his name.
"The art of changing hearts? It seems that this cheap captain Chi Luan is from the mountain clan. No wonder he is good at control and containment." Sheren understood the state of this man.
If there is a ninja who can use the secret technique of Heart Turn as a companion, the feasibility of the mission will be relatively higher.
According to Chi Luan's instructions, he immediately used the art of erasing the face to make up and look like an Iwa Ninja who fell to the ground. At the same time, he took out a scroll with some basic information about this Iwa Ninja scrawled on it, and some information about this Iwa Ninja.
, which includes his name, the ninjutsu he is good at, and the responsibilities he bears in this ceremony.
Simply write it down.
After a moment, Toneri walked out of the corner after finishing his disguise, no different from when he entered just now.
"Yan Jiu, where have you been? I can't find you anywhere. The ceremony is about to begin. Mr. Han asked us to get ready."
As soon as Toneri walked out of the corner, an Iwa ninja couldn't run forward and shouted to him.
"Uh...it's you. You scared me. I just felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach and found a place to go to the toilet. Don't tell Mr. Han, so as not to blame me."
Toneri imitated what Chi Luan told him, pretending to be a rock ninja, and pretending to be honest, he scratched the back of his head.
"Hahaha - that's what I guessed. Don't worry, I won't tell Mr. Han. Come back to your place quickly." The Iwa ninja obviously did not doubt Toneri.
The camouflage of the art of erasing facial expressions is indeed quite excellent.
The two of them returned to the ceremony stage in the square together.
Chiluan is quite good at choosing people, and the rock ninja that Toneri pretends to assumes a relatively important responsibility in the entire ceremony.
In addition to the next daimyo who should stand in the center of the ceremony stage to receive the ceremony, and the five-tailed jinchūriki guarding him, Toneri's duty is to stand at the corner of the ceremony stage, guard the ceremony stage, and protect the safety of the ceremony stage.
In addition to him, there are three other such ninjas, including the Iwa ninja who was looking for him just now.
It seems that these four of them should be valued by the Five-Tailed Jinchuuriki Han.
Toneri, who was standing in the corner, glanced at the man in the middle wearing fiery red armor with an indifferent expression.
This man is the Five-Tailed Jinchūriki of Iwagakure Village!
His calm eyes and the look in his eyes that everything was under control gave the many Iwa ninjas present enough confidence, as if as long as he was there, no problems would arise.
And the middle-aged man in black attire standing in front of him is the target of their mission, the next daimyo of Tian Country. As long as he completes today's succession ceremony, he will become the real daimyo.
, then Konoha will no longer be qualified to deal with him.
However, seeing Han's appearance as a personal guard, Shiren really couldn't find any way to assassinate him.
Moreover, even if the assassination was successful, who would deal with the furious Han?
Can they still leave?
Why hasn't the person Chi Luan mentioned who was sent to deal with Han shown up yet?
If there is no one to deal with the Han, Shiren believes that this mission will only end in failure.
Suddenly, Han, who was standing on the ceremony stage, turned his head and glanced in the direction of the master.
Toneri immediately averted his somewhat obvious gaze.
Fortunately, Han just took one look at it and after confirming that it was "Yan Jiu", he didn't pay too much attention to it.
"As expected of the Five-Tailed Jinchuuriki, he has a terrifying sense of perception. He can detect it just by looking at it."
He restrained his inner thoughts. Anyway, he was just helping the roots to do the task this time. Even if the task failed, it didn't matter.
As for the loss of the Fire Country and the loss of Konoha, it has nothing to do with him. What should be valued is the Daimyo, ministers and various high-level officials of the Fire Country.
When the sun gradually rises in the east, the time reaches the auspicious hour of six o'clock.
The succession ceremony officially begins.
Originally, the normal succession ceremony should have started in the evening of the previous day. The older generation of daimyo would hold a resignation ceremony before setting on the stage, and the setting of the sun represented the daimyo's twilight.
Then, at dawn the next day, when the sun just rises, it is the time for the new daimyo to succeed to the throne, which symbolizes that the new daimyo is reborn like the rising sun.
This is a unified succession ceremony for the great names of all countries in the ninja world, whether it is a big country or a small country.
It can be seen from such succession ceremonies that these great names compare themselves to the sun in the sky.
Since there is no resignation ceremony, after the new daimyo pays homage to their ancestors, there will be nothing too complicated.
The ceremony has already taken place...
Toneri stood silently in the corner of the ceremony stage, watching the priests come on stage one by one, performing some strange-looking rituals on the man in the Chinese costume one by one. Although it was cumbersome, the man in the Chinese costume accepted it calmly.
Until the end, a line of honor guard led by the high priest, holding a tray in his hand, and placed on the tray was a very luxurious-looking crown, which was a symbol of the name.
The daimyo's crown.
As long as the man in black attire wears it, he will become the real daimyo of Tian Country, and if Konoha attacks him openly, he will become the target of public criticism.
The man in black attire, who had always been indifferent and calm, couldn't help but tremble with excitement after seeing this crown.
The excitement in my heart manifests itself in my body.
At this moment, Shiren had to turn his attention to the man in the splendid crown and attire again.
So far, they have not waited for the so-called strong man who can deal with Han to appear in Chi Luan's mouth.
"Chiluan, how should we make a choice next?"
At this time, Toneri no longer became anxious, but was just waiting for the captain, Chi Luan, to make a choice.
The honor guard has already arrived in front of the ceremony stage.
at this time.
boom!
Next to the ceremony stage, a huge explosion sounded.
But this explosion alarmed everyone who noticed the incident.
"Here we come!" Shiren's heart tightened slightly.
In the end, Chiluan, as the root mission machine, finally chose to carry out the mission, even though in the mission information, the person who would deal with the Five-Tailed Jinchuuriki Han did not appear.
But Han standing in the stands raised his lips.
"We finally took action. I thought you were going to hide it for how long."
As the explosion sounded, the Iwa ninjas who had prepared in advance took out their weapons and prepared to fight.
At the same time, a famous rock ninja also jumped out of the wall around Daming Mansion.
The chaotic crowd swarmed towards the outside of the square, and the three people standing there watching the ceremony stage undoubtedly became the focus of the Iwa Ninjas.
With no way to assassinate, Chi Luan and the others could only choose to attack by force.
"Earth Release-Rock Pillar Spear!"
The prepared rock ninjas formed seals one after another.
Chakra condensed into sharp thorns that sprang up from the ground crazily. The main targets were of course Chiluan and the three people. However, there were still many residents of Tian Country in the square who had not left, and they undoubtedly became
Sacrifice.
The man in fine clothes on the ceremony stage witnessed this scene, his eyes flashed with unbearable expression, but he quickly covered it up.
This is the consequence of not having one's own hidden village and not having one's own power.
Without power, human life is worthless no matter where it is.
I became more determined to build a hidden village.
Of course, it is impossible for the rock pillar gun alone to kill the three Chiluan people, and more can only be regarded as clearing the scene.
And even though there are so many Iwa nin, they are mainly just some genin, some chuunin, and a few jounin.
"The ceremony continues!" Han said solemnly.
When the high priest, who was half-frightened to death, heard these words, he was instantly inspired and walked tremblingly in front of him under the earnest gaze of the man in rich clothes.
"Fire Release-Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"
A flame engraved with the shape of a dragon's head rose from outside the stand, and the roaring dragon-shaped flames rushed straight towards the high priest and the crown in his hand that represented the name.
boom!!!
Before the fire dragon's flame bullets came into contact with the high priest, they were directly blasted to pieces by Han's powerful punch, which arrived first.
It can be clearly seen that a large amount of steam spurted out from his strange red armor, and the fist wrapped in the armor came into contact with the high-temperature and scorching flames, but it did not have any impact on Han.
"Is this the power of the Five-Tailed Jinchuuriki?"
One punch can directly smash the B-level fire escape ninjutsu fire dragon flame bomb.
However, Han's face didn't look good, because the three Akiras holding weapons had already begun to massacre the ninjas of Iwagakure Village below. Whether they were chuunin or genin, it was difficult for them to survive a single move in their hands.
For killing, root ninjas have received professional training and do not need much strength. They only need to find the acupuncture points and weak points of a person's body, gently pick, stab or knock the handle of the knife, and just the right amount of force can kill them.
They kill.
His subordinates were one-sided in the hands of these Konoha ninjas.
And they seem to be able to determine the precise location of the Jonin among the Rock Ninjas, just to avoid the Jonin, because there are so many Rock Ninjas here, and a few large-scale ninjutsu can affect many people, but the Rock Ninjas seem to
Some of them were restrained, and the presence of their companions prevented them from taking action normally.
This is simply a massacre. The place is not very big to begin with. With so many Iwa Ninjas, relying on their flexible movements, it is impossible for ordinary Iwa Ninjas to stop them.
"All ninjas below the jounin level must withdraw!" Henkel shouted.
After shouting, he turned around and glared at the man in fine clothes, and said unceremoniously:
"You! Keep the ceremony simple and quickly put that damn crown on me!"
The man in fine clothes frowned subconsciously, but he also knew that the situation was urgent and immediately picked up the black crown from the tray of the frightened high priest.
Excited heart, trembling hands.
Slowly put the crown on his head.
Convinced that he was about to become a daimyo, Han's anger finally became uncontrollable, "You four! Protect him!"
"yes!"
Immediately afterwards, Han jumped down from Taishan and rushed towards the maned dog among the three who was using fire escape. A large amount of steam was ejected from the red armor on his body, which greatly increased his speed.
But what he didn't notice was that when the four people under his command rushed to protect the man in colorful clothes, one of them was very fast.
Swish——
A bright white light flashed across, and blood splattered everywhere.
The crown is less than an inch away from the head of the man in gorgeous clothes, but this inch of distance has become a natural chasm!
With his eyes wide open, all the ambition and lofty ambitions in his eyes were only left with horror at this moment.
Eyes wandering...
A head fell to the ground.
The person who drew the sword had an indifferent look in his eyes. This was the opportunity he should seize, and the opportunity Chi Luan and the others had fought for for him.
The other three Iwa Ninja were also shocked. They looked at this "companion" blankly and opened their mouths not knowing what to say.
But Toneri didn't wait for them to recover. His body was instantly wrapped in lightning armor, and the speed of the short sword in his hand more than doubled, and he slashed through it again.
Clang!!
Except for one person who reacted in time and blocked the advancing dagger with a kunai, the other two were all missing their heads.
Even the person who blocked it had a very deep wound on his body, and a small gap could be clearly seen on the black kunai.
It can be seen that the short knife received from the root is not an ordinary knife. Although it cannot conduct chakra, it is very sharp.
"Tian Jiu you!..."
The only person who survived dared to believe the scene he saw in front of him.
Toneri slightly raised the corner of his mouth, thrust out the short knife, and the opponent quickly retreated.
But how can he be faster than lightning?
This short sword is indeed unable to conduct chakra, but metal can conduct electricity, there is no doubt about it.
A beam of lightning shot out from the tip of the knife and penetrated straight into the opponent's heart.
In an instant, not only the man in fine clothes who was about to become a daimyo, but also the three chunin of Iwagakure Village who were valued by Han, all fell on the ceremony stage.
Toneri glanced at the high priest who was really frightened and asked calmly: "The crown has not been put on the head and the ceremony has not been completed. He is not a daimyo, right?"
The old high priest had been scared out of his mind for a long time. When he heard the question, he nodded subconsciously and said randomly: "Yes...yes...yes...not yet...
He’s not even a famous name yet.”
Hearing this, the smile on Toneri's face became even wider, and he shook off the blood on his dagger, "Very good."
After confirming, they immediately prepared to leave. As for Chi Luan and the others...
May you be blessed...
"Woo-"
But before he left, he heard the sound of steam drumming.
It turned out that Han, who had just rushed off the stage and severely injured the maned dog with a punch, found out that the man in fine clothes had been killed, and that a traitor had appeared among the four people he trusted most.
Angrily, he immediately put down the mane dogs and the three of them, and rushed towards the toner at full speed.
You must know that this is a ruthless man who will be able to fuse with the Nine-Tails and enter the Nine-Tails mode after being reincarnated in the dirty land in the future, and punch away Tai Zi Ming.
The special armor he wears allows him to maximize his abilities and advantages.
Both in terms of speed and strength, it is very terrifying.
Toneri, who barely reacted, could only hold the sword across his chest and put up the best defense he could.
