Chapter 148 The Fourth Heart Shape Is Finalized, and the World Where only Octopus Xiao Ke Is Injured Is Achieved
Accompanied by the trembling sound of Uchiha You's electronic music, lightning, arcs, and electric balls all flowed into Kaguya Noboru's body along the bone spear, burning his internal organs, nerves, and muscles bit by bit.
This was not natural lightning from the sky, but the natural energy of the thunder spirit in Uchiha You's meridians. He could fully control this power and could avoid killing the target.
Such continuous electric shocks were so cruel that Kaguya Noboru had never imagined.
The violent electric shocks made his muscles tremble violently, and the severe pain raged in his body at will. The violent contraction of the muscles tore violently on the bones of the corpse veins, causing terrible cuts and lacerations.
Kaguya Noboru was covered in blood, like a bloody man.
But he did not die, and it can even be said that he was completely out of danger for a short time.
Uchiha You avoided the directly fatal internal organs, but only destroyed his muscles, nerves, and some internal organs that would not be immediately fatal, and even carefully burned the torn skin to help him disinfect and stop bleeding.
Yes, he had decided to leave a survivor and create a new vest for himself.
Uchiha You had a hunch that he would need it soon.
After the battle, Uchiha You carefully finished off all the ninjas except Kaguya Noboru to ensure that no second survivors were left and that the "Thunder God" would not be ruined.
After checking and confirming that there was no problem, he quietly returned to the island where the Tiger Corps was located.
After returning to his own courtyard, Uchiha You first went to see Miwa Masayo who had not yet woken up, and confirmed that the raccoon cat was in good condition, and then quietly left the room.
Uchiha You sat down in the yard and unexpectedly found that his state of mind was peaceful, and the restlessness he had when he left had completely disappeared.
This result was unbelievable to him. According to previous expectations, even if he learned to hang cloud gliding and killed all the Kaguya clan ninjas, he could only greatly reduce the restlessness, not completely and thoroughly disappear.
After all, after the heart-shaped restlessness, if no external force is applied, it can only recover slowly, and it will take a very long time.
There must be new changes in his spiritual world that he didn't know about. Although the problem was completely solved, Uchiha You was very curious about what exactly had changed.
He had to go into the spiritual world to see.
So Uchiha You gathered his mind and immersed himself in absolute tranquility. His mind gradually sank in the tranquility and suddenly he entered the spiritual world.
With just one glance, he knew what the change was.
The fourth heart shape was finalized.
It condensed from a black thundercloud or dark gray mist into a... toad.
This toad was fat and plump, with blue and green interweaving lightning patterns on its body, dotted with a few white dots, and electric sparks jumping out from time to time.
The attribute of lightning, that's right, it is indeed the fourth heart shape, the liver clam.
The appearance of this little monster made the balance of the spiritual world reach the best state, no wonder it can quickly eliminate the abnormality of the heart shape.
And the liver clam is a big eater, greedily sticking out its tongue, licking the abnormal heart-shaped flesh and hair that fell all over the ground.
What's interesting is that the result of its swallowing is that Uchiha You benefits, just like being digested by the spiritual world.
In the entire spiritual world, only the hole octopus Xiao Ke was the most hurt, because as long as it got close to a certain extent, the liver clam would give up licking the ground and try to stick Xiao Ke with its big tongue and swallow him.
The hole octopus was frightened, as if it saw a natural enemy, and hid far away from the liver clam, and refused to get close.
But none of the four heart shapes is easy to mess with. They attach great importance to their absolute domain. Once Xiao Ke gets too close, they will drive him to the position of the other three heart shapes.
The poor octopus can only be driven back and forth between the three heart shapes.
Uchiha You's spiritual world is a world where only the hole octopus Xiao Ke can be hurt.
Seeing that his spiritual world is so harmonious, Uchiha You is extremely satisfied. This time he is really fully prepared for a breakthrough.
The physical development has reached the limit, the internal and external balance of chakra and natural energy has been achieved, and the spiritual world is perfectly balanced. Now there is only one opportunity left.
…
Orochimaru did stay in the camp of the Konoha Ninja Army. Unlike Jiraiya, he was very patient and good at the tactic of forbearing and luring, and finally delivering a fatal blow.
The sudden outbreak of the Hidden Mist Village involved not only the Land of Soup, but also the Land of Waves, the Land of Fire, and the Land of Whirlpools, all of which were within the attack range of the Hidden Mist Ninja.
Under such circumstances, as one of the most powerful people among the Konoha Ninjas, Orochimaru received too much information, which led to him being seriously disturbed by difficult investigation.
Uchiha Yu was on the front line, with few but clear sources of information, and with his own advantage of crossing, he could make accurate judgments quickly.
Unfortunately, his judgment was written into a report and passed to Orochimaru, but it became one of the interference factors that troubled Orochimaru.
Too many people were giving Orochimaru their own judgments, based on one-sided local intelligence and lacking convincing evidence.
Uchiha Yuu did have more extensive information, but it was either from his own memories or from the second vest, so he couldn't tell Orochimaru.
This made his judgment equally unconvincing.
The Fourth Mizukage's target was not the Land of Lightning or the Land of Fire, but the Land of the Whirlpool, using it as a springboard to conquer the Land of Tea in the south.
Goju Yagura wanted to avoid the strong Orochimaru tribe on the northeastern front and launch attacks from the south and southeast of the Fire Country, where the Konoha ninjas had almost no strength and no decent commanders.
This is how Goju Yagura explained to the Genshi: "There is no doubt that Konoha Village is the strongest, but Konoha Village is no longer as powerful as it was at the beginning of the second war."
"Perhaps the low-level ninjas in Konoha Village are very strong, or even stronger, but the number of shadow-level experts is really small."
"Orochimaru guarded the country of Yu, and he withstood us Kirigakure and Kumogakure alone. Jiraiya, in the country of rain, withstood the main force of Iwagakure and Sunagakure villages. Although the losses were heavy, he was able to stabilize the situation. We must hold the line.”
"These are two Kage-level ninjas who withstood the four great ninja villages, but they seem to have only these two Kage-level ninjas available."
"The White Fang of Konoha were driven to death by themselves, Tsunade was forced to run away from the village, Danzo Shimura was talented and incompetent, and Hiruzen Sarutobi was timid and incompetent. Neither of them were suitable commanders of the ninja army, nor could they be like Jiraiya. Put down your arrogance to cooperate and protect a Jonin-level commander."
"So on the southern battlefield of Kawanoguni, Konoha Village has no commander available. They were destroyed there together with Sunagakure Village."
"Master Yuanshi, my target is the area south of the Country of Fire, close to the Country of Sichuan."
"Of course, I will first attack the Country of Waves and the Country of Whirlpool, then the Country of Tea, distract Konoha's energy as much as possible, and let the Third Hokage be at a loss, and finally open up the situation completely here."
"As long as we actually invade the Fire Country and ignite a raging war in the Fire Country, the entire ninja world will follow suit. By then, Konoha Village will be doomed."
"Unless a real Senju Hashirama or Uchiha Madara appears immediately, Konoha Village will fall apart under the siege of the four great ninja villages."
Genshi was very excited when he heard this, and immediately decided to give full support. If Kirigakure Village could attack the Country of Fire first, the war would be completely ignited and the crisis of Konoha Village's destruction would be triggered.
Even if he died immediately, he could rest in peace.
It is precisely because the current goal of Kirigakure Village is to harass and isolate intelligence, and the target is not in the country of Yu at all. On the contrary, Orochimaru is confused and cannot figure out the enemy's purpose.
Orochimaru's basic style is to make decisions before taking action. If he can't figure out what the enemy wants to do, he won't act haphazardly.
Nara Shikaku couldn't even bear his temper and asked uncertainly: "Lord Orochimaru, do we really do nothing?"
Orochimaru chuckled and said: "Who said I won't do anything? Let all the Konoha ninjas who can't hold on in the sea come back. In addition, the north of Yuno Country is abandoned and the ninjas are also transferred back."
"ah?"
Nara Shikaku was confused. He asked how to attack. As a result, Orochimaru completely contracted as soon as he opened his mouth.
No matter how smart he was, he couldn't hold back any longer and directly said what was in his heart: "But we can't explain it to the Third Hokage."
Orochimaru snorted: "It's a joke. There are only 7,600 ninjas under my command. They should occupy such a large area from the beginning."
"It was all to boost the morale of Konoha Village that I made the ninjas hold on for four months. Four months! I am worthy of the teacher. He can't reverse the situation in four months. What do you want me to do?"
Nara Shikaku turned pale with fright, and whispered nervously: "Be careful with your words, be careful with your words..."
Orochimaru didn't care: "It's me who is saying something bad about the teacher, not you. What are you afraid of?"
Nara Shikaku: Of course I’m afraid that the naughty teacher won’t be able to do anything to you, so just take it out on me.
Seeing that his staff officer was angry and depressed, with his eyes widened, his nostrils dilated, and his whole body deformed, Orochimaru could only comfort him: "Don't worry, I don't have any ANBU of the Hokage here."
Can you trust Nara antlers?
He was really angry, and he reached out and pointed at the masked ninja standing in the corner of the room. Although he didn't say anything, his meaning was very clear: Where is such a big ANBU standing? Can you tell me?
Orochimaru turned his head 180 degrees, glanced at his finger, and said with a smile: "Shikaku, this ANBU is not the Hokage's ANBU, but my ANBU, so don't worry."
Nara Shikaku's face recovered instantly, but his expression became more serious and heavy: "Lord Orochimaru, did you reach into the ANBU?"
"Um."
Orochimaru admitted calmly and added: "It's not a big deal."
The impact of this sentence was so great that Nara Shikaku almost choked to death on his own saliva.
What do you mean it's not a big deal? What's the point of Orochimaru being an ANBU?
The ANBU was founded by the Second Hokage and is directly under the Hokage's force. It is a violent organization with the highest authority in Konoha Village. The ANBU holds the privileges of intelligence, assassination, arrest, execution, defense, counter-espionage, etc. The most important thing is that they represent the power of the Hokage.
Within the scope of Konoha Village and the Land of Fire, ANBU's privileges are almost omnipotent and can directly execute any ninja below the rank of jounin. It is a true Hokage's privilege and has no taboos.
Orochimaru, just reach in and replace the Third Hokage's will with your own, okay?
Orochimaru saw the Nara antlers getting into the horns, and his troubled face wrinkled up, so he patted his shoulder and comforted: "Don't think of Anbu as so sacred. After all, this is the era of my teacher, the Third Hokage. It has been long ago. That's when the Second Hokage came."
"Shikaku, if you think about it carefully, how many people are there in ANBU now? Is it still the 70 people it once was? Moreover, ANBU has long been no longer exclusive to the Hokage. Is there something under this department?"
After being reminded by Orochimaru, Nara Shikaku's mind suddenly turned around, and he murmured: "Shimura..."
"I won't say his name. He is more petty than my teacher, and he is too shameless."
"I understand, Orochimaru-sama."
"Go and order the contraction."
"yes."
"etc."
Just when Nara Shikaku was about to walk out, Orochimaru stopped him and ordered: "Go and find out the situation of the Tiger Force. If they can still be stable at sea, then don't recall them."
"If they can stand on the sea, no matter what Kirigakure wants to do within the Three Kingdoms on the east coast of the mainland, their hands and feet will be tied up like a thorn in their backs."
Nara Shikaku now also has full confidence in the Tiger Force. He smiled and said: "Although we can't say that we can sit back and relax, there will be no danger."
"This is going to be like the Battle of Kubota Village again. I think the Mizukage in Kirigakure Village will go crazy."
Orochimaru also smiled: "What I want is for Mizukage to go crazy. If he goes crazy, the pressure here will be much less."
When Nara Shikaku went out, Orochimaru's smile faded, and his whole temperament suddenly became gloomy and cold. He snorted coldly and said to himself: "It's not necessarily a good thing that I'm less stressed, Yondaime Mizukage, I don’t know what his character is.”
"If the Fourth Mizukage, Tachibana Yagura, is extremely aggressive and goes all out to develop southward, making a big circle and then fighting back to the Land of Fire, Konoha Village will be in big trouble."
"I hope this nail of the Tiger Force can bring enough trouble to Kirigakure Village."
…
Just when Orochimaru set his sights on the Tiger Troops, the fourth generation Mizukage Gotachibana Yagura was also thinking about the problems of this group of Uchiha family ninjas.
Kaguya Yoshi completed the task of cleaning the sea, but suffered serious losses in the northern area. More than 400 Kirigakure ninjas disappeared here.
It wasn't until the Kaguya clan's elite jounin Kaguya Noboru, as well as 50 Kaguya clan ninjas and more than 60 Kirigakure ninjas were finally defeated here, that Kirigakure Village received accurate information.
"The Tiger Troop of the Uchiha family, and there is...a weirdo?"
"Captain Kaguya, you actually said that he was guided by fate and went out to kill your clan members. How should I believe this?"
Facing the Fourth Mizukage's questioning, Kaguya was helpless. He didn't know why Kaguya was beaten to a disability by a weirdo.
Fortunately, someone still spoke and helped Kaguya get out of the situation.
Terumi Jonin stood up and said: "Last time we assembled into a large fleet and passed through the waters of the peninsula, we encountered an island."
He described all the traces of thunder he saw on the island that time, as well as the houses where humans live and the small vegetable plots that were cultivated. Everyone listened thoughtfully.
"At that time, our guess was that there was a powerful ninja who was good at lightning escape living there in seclusion, and the island was not too far away from the sea area where this battle was fought. On the contrary, the sea area where Uchiha activities were discovered later was farther away."
Terumi Jonin said: "I have a bold idea, maybe this is two different things colliding together."
"On one side, the tiger troops of Konoha Village are fighting with us for control of the sea, and on the other side, there is an unexpected conflict between the reclusive weirdos and us."
Goju Yagura nodded and said: "What Terumi Jonin said makes sense, but we have to verify it. The risk of verification is not low. Well, this time the Snow Clan will be responsible."
The new leader of the Snow Clan is still a handsome boy with long black hair. He stood up and respectfully accepted the order: "Yes, the Fourth Mizukage-sama."
The Fourth Mizukage Goju Yagura clicked on the map where the Tiger troops were stationed on the island, and said with emotion: "I have to say, Orochimaru has a really good vision."
"Hey, before Konoha's tiger troops appeared, there was nothing awkward about this place. But with them here, we couldn't attack the Country of Yu on a large scale, and the east coast of the Country of Fire was completely inaccessible."
"I never thought that pressing a nail here would make me feel so uncomfortable."
The Fourth Mizukage said seriously to all the ninjas: "Confirm the information about that weirdo as soon as possible, and then no matter what, we must eliminate the Tiger Force as soon as possible, otherwise we have to consider them no matter what we do. It will be too uncomfortable."
Genshi said hesitantly: "In the last battle, the tiger troops of Konoha Village, with less than a hundred people, actually killed more than 3,000 of our Kirigakure ninjas. Their combat effectiveness was quite terrifying."
"And there is intelligence that they have expanded to about 300 people. This force is not easy to deal with."
The Fourth Mizukage nodded in agreement: "It's because they are so powerful that we have to deal with them with all our strength. If it were hundreds of other ninjas, we wouldn't have to care at all."
Master Yuan asked: "Fourth Generation Master, how do you plan to deal with them?"
Goju Yagura replied: "In previous wars, Konoha's Tiger Attack Team has proven that they are not afraid of the siege of thousands of ninjas and are good at dealing with chunin and genin."
"But I believe they have no way to deal with powerful ninjas, such as the tailed beast jinchūriki, or a ninja force composed purely of jounin."
"We are Kirigakure, one of the five major ninja villages in the ninja world. No matter how strong this Tiger Force is, they are just a small group of Uchiha ninjas."
"As long as we can master the detailed information of the Tiger Troops and make targeted arrangements, Kirigakure Village will definitely have a way to eliminate them."
