Uchiha Kagura walked at the front and led the way.
Of course, such an important plan to ambush Danzo couldn't be just the three of them.
The others had sneaked out long before that, taking advantage of the opportunity to find Shisui's body.
For this opportunity, Setsuna Uchiha secretly recruited 12 family ninjas, 3 of whom were team leader jounin, and the remaining 9 were special jounin.
It happens to be the configuration of 3 ninja classes.
Including Qianye, a special jounin, and Uchiha Kagura, an elite jounin, there are a total of 14 people.
Qianye looked at the dense forest in front of him and sighed in his heart. He didn't know how many people would be able to come back smoothly after this operation.
But if Shimura Danzo cannot be killed in the wild, more people will die.
Time was tight, so everyone ran day and night. After running at full speed for 16 hours, they arrived near the capital of the Kingdom of Fire.
16 hours and nearly 800 kilometers across.
This distance is approximately equal to 2 corners.
Even though the ninja's physical strength and endurance were monster-level compared to ordinary people, Qianye was still exhausted.
They did not enter the capital directly, but instead came to the edge of a cliff.
It was so foggy under the cliff that even though it was daytime and the sun was shining brightly at noon, the scene below could not be seen clearly.
The three of them attached chakra to their feet and ran quickly on the steep cliffs as if they were walking on flat ground.
Qianye looked down at the bottomless darkness below. From time to time, his ears could hear the strange wind blowing from the bottom of the cliff, and his brain was a little dizzy.
He's...afraid of heights.
Fortunately, this torture did not last long. After a few minutes, they arrived at the middle of the cliff. There was a cave there, and Uchiha Tekka and the others were inside.
Uchiha Inari stood near the cave and used a specific frequency to imitate the call of a common bird.
Soon, another voice came from the cave in response.
Uchiha Inohuo let out two rapid chirps, turned his head and said, "It's them."
Qianye walked into the cave. There were several torches stuck on the deepest rock wall, bringing some light to the dark cave.
Uchiha Tiehuo asked anxiously: "Qianye, is the plan about to begin?"
"Yes, gentlemen, the success or failure of your family depends on this!"
Uchiha Kagura asked in a deep voice: "Yashiro, Tiehuo, are you ready with what I asked you to prepare?"
The great figure of the Land of Fire, Kanlai, lives in seclusion and is surrounded by personal guards who protect the Twelve Soldiers.
If there is no one to introduce him, it will be extremely difficult to meet him without alerting the guards.
Uchiha Tiehuo and Uchiha Yashiro led their team to leave early. In addition to the fact that the barrier could not pass so many people, there was another important reason, which was to come in advance and make preparations.
"Lord Huocang, things are not going well."
Uchiha Yashiro said calmly: "The daimyo was assassinated a week ago. Now the entire capital is heavily guarded and no one is allowed to enter or exit."
"Whoever wants to enter Daming Mansion will be strictly interrogated by the twelve guardians."
Qianye frowned. Although he had received brief information from the psychic beast before coming, he knew that things were not going well, but he did not expect it to be so troublesome.
The Twelve Guardians are all elite Jonin.
How strong are the elite jounin in the ninja world?
At present, Hokage has not yet experienced the collapse situation in the later stage where Jonin is inferior to a dog and Kage level is wandering around.
If an elite jounin is placed in a small ninja village like Kusanagi Village, he is qualified to become the supreme leader of the village.
In the land that appears in the original work, the bounty is as high as 30 million taels, which is approximately equal to 0.85 Asma.
You know, the bounty for an S-level mission only starts at one million taels. After a slight conversion, it is approximately equal to 1/35 of an Asma!
Such a comparison can clearly show how strong they are.
Even if they haven't reached their peak yet, their strength is still extraordinary.
And there are as many as 12 of them.
It is easy to sneak into the capital.
No matter how high the city wall is, it is useless to ninjas.
But sneaking into Daming Mansion is a bit whimsical.
They want to sneak into the Daming Mansion quietly under the noses of these 12 elite jounin, but it will be difficult to reach the sky!
'It's a bad start.'
Qianye leaned on the cold rock wall, closed his eyes, settled down and thought quietly.
In the current ninja world, it is possible to assassinate a daimyo under the personal protection of the Twelve Guards. Qianye thought about it and found that the only one who could do this was the Akatsuki organization.
But now that the Akatsuki organization is eager to make money in silence, how could they go crazy and come to assassinate the great names of the Land of Fire?
"Brother Yashiro, when was the specific time when the daimyo was assassinated?" Qianye opened his eyes and asked suddenly.
Just because things are not going smoothly doesn't mean that Uchiha Yashiro and the others didn't do anything.
They painstakingly collected a lot of information and immediately answered:
"Last week on Saturday."
"Saturday..." Qianye murmured to himself, feeling an indescribable strange feeling.
Uchiha Inari suddenly said: "Isn't this the third day after Shisui was killed?"
Uchiha Inari's words were like a bolt of lightning flashing through Qianye's mind.
He finally knew where the strange feeling in his heart came from.
Because this time happened to be the same day that he traveled through time!
So, could it be Shisui's death that led to the daimyo's assassination?
These two things don't sound related in any way, but Qianye knows that these two things that are obviously impossible to be related are inextricably linked!
The death of Uchiha Shisui is a signal that Konoha will take action against the Uchiha clan.
The Daimyo of the Land of Fire is like a puppet statue, always acting as a backdrop.
But, is the other party really that simple?
Qianye remembered that in the original work, there was a very interesting plot about the Twelve Guardians.
The Twelve Guardians were divided into two factions.
One faction, headed by Kazuma, believes that Naruto should not exist and that the real power of ninja rule should belong to the daimyo!
The other faction was headed by Sarutobi Asuma.
Naturally, he rebuked Kazuma for having too evil ideas, thinking that Kazuma was an evil villain who "subverted the ninja world and tried to rule it."
Later, the Asuma faction led the Jilu monks and others to overthrow the Kazuma faction on the pretext that Kazuma led his people to assassinate the daimyo.
The final outcome was that Kazuma's men died in battle and Kazuma fled.
Justice triumphs over evil~
This plot kept replaying in Qianye's mind, and he suddenly made a bold guess:
‘Is this assassination incident directed and staged by the daimyo!?’
Qianye continued to think along this line of thinking.
In this real world, as the lord of a country, it is of course impossible for a great nobleman to be like a clay statue, willing to be used as a backdrop.
According to the information collected by the Uchiha clan, the other party is not a mediocre king who does nothing.
The death of Uchiha Shisui made this daimyo smell something unusual.
Qianye put himself in his shoes and realized that if he were him, he would definitely take advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble.
According to normal logic, Uchiha's coup will definitely lead to internal unrest in Konoha.
The third generation of Sarutobi Hiruzen is undeniably to blame and will definitely retire like in the Third Ninja War.
Facing an unprecedentedly weak Konoha, the difficulty of daimyo's intervention will drop off a cliff!
