Escape From Konoha - Vol 2 Chapter 156
Falling in love with youkanshu.com, escaping from Konoha
It will be two days after leaving Miaomu Mountain and returning to the land of ghosts.
Although the time spent in Mt. Myogi was less than a week, it was enough for Shiraishi to understand the place other than the temple that served the great toad immortal.
The number of large toads, medium-sized toads and adult-sized toads owned by Miaomushan also basically has a general understanding.
Although the size of the toads does not necessarily represent the strength of these toads, in most cases, the strength of the toads in Miaomu Mountain can be roughly judged from the size – the stronger the toads, the larger the volume.
Shiraishi also made reference to the size of these toads, the energy contained in their bodies, the incomparable image and the strength of ninjas—that is, according to the standard Shimonin, Chunin and Shangnin to distinguish the strength of these toads.
However, even in a sacred place that has been passed down for thousands of years, Shiraishi realized that the toads who can freely control immortal arts are only a very small part.
Most of them are extracted from natural energy and initially fused with the chakra in the body, resulting in relatively inferior fairy chakra.
This has to do with one’s own qualifications.
Because the natural energy is too powerful, in order to form an immortal chakra with neutralization, the practitioner must have an incomparably powerful chakra.
Otherwise, once the immortal chakra is refined, there is an uncontrollable risk, ranging from disability to death.
This is about the same as Shiraishi expected.
Those ninjas in the land of ghosts who cultivate natural energy are almost in the same situation.
Due to the influence of its own chakra volume, it is difficult to integrate natural energy and magic chakra. Even if it is barely fused, the purity of Immortal Chakra is very low.
The toads of Miaomu Mountain are in a similar situation. The toads who freely control the immortal chakra are only a very small number of elites, such as the big toad immortal, the two elders, and the big toad of Yansu who guards the gate of Miaomu Mountain.
The rest of the toads either used the lower-purity fairy chakra, or enhanced their bodies with huge natural energy. That said, it was enough to hurt the white stone.
A large toad, placed on the battlefield, is a sharp weapon for strangling the enemy. The reason why Sanren was so famous on the battlefield in the past, it can be said that the large psychic beasts are the powerful capital they use to run rampant.
Plus a big toad immortal who doesn’t know the depth…
This war is not easy to fight.
……
“Is this the result of the investigation?”
In the conference room, Liuli and Ayane were sitting on the sofa reading the statistical data prepared by Shiraishi.
After reading it, both of them frowned in unison. Obviously, the data obtained after Shiraishi’s investigation surprised them.
Not because Miaomushan is too weak, but because it is too strong!
There are more than a dozen large and giant toads of all kinds.
There are many medium-sized toads and adult-sized toads.
This is just the power of Miaomushan revealed on the surface.
According to Shiraishi, the toad guards who guard the Great Toad Immortal in the temple are the most elite toads in Miaomu Mountain. As for whether there is any hidden fighting power in the temple in addition to these guards, it is unknown.
Even if the strength revealed, even if a big country’s Ninja Village forcibly attacked, I’m afraid it won’t get any benefits.
“According to the statistics of the previous ninja wars, the destructive power caused by a large psychic beast is equivalent to the sum of several to a dozen regular jōnin. If there is no corresponding psychic beast, it is difficult to block its actions. .”
Ayane shared the information she knew.
Regarding the data on the combat power of large psychic beasts on the battlefield, in fact, each Ninja village has conducted detailed statistics.
It can be said that every big country’s ninja villages have experience in contracting ninjas with large psychic beasts, so it is very clear how gorgeous these psychic beasts are on the battlefield.
However, there is also an absolute gap between large psychic beasts and large psychic beasts.
For example, in the three holy places, the ordinary large-scale psychic beasts who practiced chakra, and the large-scale psychic beasts in the holy places, have a difference in quality.
Even if the size is the same, the final result must be that the psychic beasts in the Holy Land are stronger!
“If it’s just a few heads, you can also take a strong attack to make them lose their combat effectiveness in the first place. But a dozen heads, or even more, once they react, it will make things very troublesome… You are sure you are not mistaken. ?”
Liu Li glanced at Shiraishi.
“The powerful and strong soul aura will not deceive me. Leaving aside the two great immortals, the big toad of Yansu is not an easy thing to me. Maybe it is even more difficult than the two immortals. ”
Shiraishi nodded.
Unlike ordinary sensory ninjas, he judges the number of enemies from the soul level.
Unless it is a corpse without a soul, there is no way to bypass his perception.
“So, if we start a war, we will have to deal with a dozen or more large-scale psychic beasts at the same time. But the most important thing is to deal with the leader of Miaomu Mountain. Can you figure out its strength?”
Liuli asked again.
“Only in terms of soul, it is stronger than Madara Uchiha that the three of us dealt with…”
Shiraishi had to tell Liuli this regrettable and headache news.
“But has it entered old age?”
Ayane asked back.
“At the beginning, what we dealt with was only the spots in the ageing period, and the power was not in its heyday. Even then, it was quite tricky.”
Liu Li answered instead of Shiraishi.
“In other words, stronger than Madara?”
“…”
Regarding this question, Shiraishi chose to remain silent, closed his eyes and sighed.
Although you don’t want to attack your own side, but facing the enemy’s strength is also a way to protect yourself.
If he did his best in the whole country, Shiraishi was confident that he could eat Mt. Miaomu at once.
But the reality… the country of ghosts cannot concentrate all its power on Mt. Miaomu.
The movements of Konoha and Sandyin were also taken into consideration.
The same is true for the neutral Yanyin and Yunyin. If these two villages see the weakness inside the country of ghosts, they may turn from neutral to hostile at any time.
“Do you have a solution?”
Liuli asked.
Shiraishi opened his eyes and said, “It’s not a solution, as long as you can win a strong aid. If one person can’t eat it, find another person to help.”
Although the results of the victory will be distributed, it is impossible for one person to swallow it alone, but in order to eliminate the threat of Miaomushan as soon as possible and prevent him from causing trouble at a critical moment, this is a must.
“Misty Village?”
Ayane tilted her head.
“No, the relationship between Yakura and us can’t be disclosed yet. After all, I can’t promise to wipe out all the toads. Once the news is revealed, then, the final stage plan… So, I want to find Nagato to cooperate. ”
Shiraishi expressed his inner thoughts.
Liuli and Ayane looked at each other, then turned their heads, lowered their heads, and thought about the pros and cons.
“What are you going to use to induce him to take action?”
Liuli asked.
As in the past, in the past transactions with Nagato, the country of Oni is dominant and can benefit from Nagato.
But this time the situation was reversed, because they asked Nagato, so if they didn’t pay a certain price, Nagato would not kindly solve this trouble for the country of ghosts.
“You can only find out after talking to him in detail, and it doesn’t matter if I said it. So tomorrow, a high-level meeting will be held, and all departments and departments will be informed to make preparations.”
Going to war with Miaomu Mountain is not a trivial matter.
Although it may not be the survival of the country of ghosts, if this war is lost, the country of ghosts will definitely fall into a passive situation, and it will quickly promote the formation of a united front between Miaomushan and Konoha.
Once the two are fully integrated and quickly enter a state of war, things can get very tricky.
There is only one chance, and it must be seized.
Before that, what Shiraishi had to do was to strengthen the defense of the country of ghosts. Once the battle is lost, it will not make the country of ghosts completely passive.
To seek defeat before a battle, you must plan for the worst in everything.
“Before the Chinese New Year, we must finalize this matter and plan the entire war process!”

In the ruined city, snowflakes are falling.
On a deserted street, there is no one, but there are footprints.
The footprints are not left by humans, but cats.
On this snow-covered street, there are cat footprints everywhere, and you can see all kinds of cats chasing and playing on the street, like a cat country.
At the bottom of the city, there is a huge space created artificially.
The roads are criss-crossed, and there are cables running through them, and you can see the TV showing programs at any time, and in front of the TV, a group of cats of different sizes are squatting.
In the room with the lucky cat in front of the door, Liuli was standing in front of an old woman with a cat face and black cat ears.
“Long time no see, Mother Cat, your body still looks healthy as always.”
Granny Cat took a puff of cigarette with a pipe, and exhaled a smoke ring from her mouth. A pair of extremely bright eyes were inlaid on her wrinkled face.
“It’s so rude, are you wishing me to die, Liuli?”
Granny Cat coughed lightly.
“No such thing, don’t you look very healthy? At least you have more than ten years to live.”
“…No, I think old lady, I still have at least a few decades to live… But, you are very busy now, how do you remember coming here at such a time? Did you come to look for Yu Huo?”
Granny Cat asked.
“There are things in this regard. However, the Kingdom of Ghosts is going to deal with a problem next, and I need the power of the Ninja family.”
“In other words, did you drop by to visit me?”
“Um.”
“…” The mother-in-law didn’t know what to say, so she continued to take a sigh of relief: “With your strength, do you also need the help of the Ninja family?”
Although the power of the Ninja family has indeed grown a lot over the years, she feels that with Liuli’s strength, she can solve most of the troubles by herself.
“This time the opponent is a bit tricky.”
“Who is the opponent?”
“Miaomu Mountain.”
The sound of the pipe falling to the ground.
The air in the room immediately solidified.
Granny Cat maintained the gesture of smoking, her expression and movements were frozen, she stared blankly at Liuli.
It took a long time for her to react, and she picked up the dropped pipe from the ground.
“It turned out to be Miaomu Mountain… Wait, you said Miaomu Mountain? You want to deal with Miaomu Mountain?”
“Yes.”
Unlike Granny Cat, who was so shocked that her words were confused, Liuli nodded directly.
Granny Cat fell into silence and seemed to have thought of something. She looked into Liu Li’s eyes seriously and asked, “Is it because of Sannin Jiraiya?”
You must know that the family she belongs to has been friends with the Uchiha family since ancient times, and is also inseparably linked with the Ninja family.
It can be said that her family and the Ninja family are the logistics staff of the Uchiha family.
Weapons, food, medicines, including intelligence… all these years, they have been providing them. There is only one thing the Uchiha clan needs to do – that is to fight!
Although over the years, as the Uchiha clan has also grown, they are still acting as the eyes of the Uchiha clan, paying attention to the changes in the situation in the ninja world.
Whether it’s a casino, a hotel, or a place with the wind and moon, or a darker place in the ninja world, there are ‘eyes’.
Under such circumstances, the kind of remarks that Sannin Jiraiya advertised are not conducive to the country of ghosts, naturally it is impossible to hide from the ninja cat family.
And the fundamental reason lies in Miaomushan’s prophecy.
“There is part of the reason, but prophecy is prophecy. As long as no actual action is taken, then there will be no war with Miaomushan. But now Miaomushan has abandoned its neutral position and secretly moves closer to Konoha… just with the Ninja family. It’s the same as taking refuge in the Uchiha family.”
“I didn’t expect that the Holy Land, which has always been neutral, would actually…”
Granny Cat was shocked by this kind of thing.
Although the psychic beast family collectively relies on a certain human force, this kind of thing is not unique. For example, the Ninja family is like this. Until the blood of the Uchiha family is exhausted, they will always fight for the Uchiha family.
But the Holy Land is not like that.
Their status in the world of psychic beasts is equivalent to that of a great country in the human world. The background and strength are comparable to those of great powers.
Once these holy sites begin to tend to support a certain power, it will cause the balance of human power to be disturbed.
“Nothing is impossible. Miaomushan has made its choice, and we need to take corresponding actions. Isn’t that what war is like?”
“But, rashly going to war with a holy place…”
The mother-in-law looked grim.
“That’s why the Ninja family’s strength is needed to contain part of Miaomushan’s troops.”
“Looks like you guys have made up your mind. I know. I’ll help with these things.”
Although Granny Cat was nervous about going to war with Miaogishan, since this is the will of the current patriarch of the Uchiha clan, as allies, they only need to do their best to assist. I dare not say that it played a key role in this war, but at least it must not be a hindrance.
“Then, I’ll leave this to you, Granny Cat. I’m going to look for Yu Huo.”
Liuli nodded slightly and turned to leave.
After Liuli left, Granny Cat put down the pipe in her hand and let out a deep breath.
“Now is not the time to be leisurely. Go and call all the cadres in charge. It seems that things will change again soon…”
Hearing Granny Cat’s words, the tri-colored cat who was leaning on the side meowed, and walked gracefully into the shadows silently.
At this point, the machine of the Ninja family also began to run at high speed.

Wearing a black raincoat.
Two figures, one tall and one short, stood in the wind and rain.
Yuyin Village is surrounded by the inland sea on all sides, and the water is turbulent. Under the rainstorm, continuous waves are rolled up, rushing forward layer by layer.
The road to Yuyin Village is only a bridge across the inland sea.
The buildings in Yuyin Village are mostly towering and sharp, like thorns, breaking through the blockade of the sky and standing still in the wind and rain.
Seen from a distance, the lights used to illuminate the village looked particularly cold in this weather.
“Is this Yuyin Village?”
Kazuhime stretched her palms out of the cuffs of her raincoat, and cold rain water gathered on her fingertips.
Because it’s winter now, the rain in the Land of Rain is extremely cold and pierces the bone marrow.
The bridge leading to Yuyin Village is also wet, and there is no place that is not eroded by rain.
This kind of abnormal weather is comparable to that of countries such as the Land of Snow and the Land of Iron.
“Let’s go.”
Passing the review of the rainy ninja at the intersection is equivalent to walking through a process. After Shiraishi stuffed the pass documents into his pocket, he said something to Kazuhime.
“understood.”
Kazuhime put down her arms, quickly followed Shiroishi’s footsteps, and walked towards the interior of Yuyin Village.
Several days have passed since the high-level meeting in the land of ghosts. Not only that, at the same time as the high-level meeting, Shiraishi also sent a secret letter to Yuyin Village through the foreign affairs department of the country of ghosts, requesting cooperation.
Taking into account the positions of other countries, there is no way for the country of ghosts to swallow the entire Mt. Miaomu by one person.
Therefore, this trip to Yuyin Village came here to seek military cooperation.
Entering the interior of Yuyin Village, Kazuhime looked at the environment of Yuyin Village curiously.
It’s better than expected, not as dilapidated as rumored.
Although many buildings do have aging problems, obvious repair marks can also be seen, and many buildings are newly built.
In addition, it seems that electronic products from the country of ghosts have also been introduced here, and advertising screens have begun to be hung up in many places, showing advertisements promoting products.
Occasionally passing by the store, you can also see the owner sitting in front of the TV, watching TV programs with relish.
The villagers and ninjas on the street were wearing raincoats, but they were not in a hurry. Judging from their plump faces, life was pretty good.
But there is one thing that Ichiji is very concerned about, that is, under the eaves of many houses, there is a kind of sunny doll made of paper hanging… Even if it is constantly beaten by wind and rain, there is no trace of moisture. The pieces of paper are also mixed with chakras that are invisible to ordinary people.
“Treating paper as ninjutsu… It’s really rare.”
Although surprised, Kazuhime wouldn’t be too surprised.
After the treatment of Chakra, even the hair can be reduced to a kind of ninjutsu. Compared with this, it seems that it is not too surprising to control the paper battle.
“It’s a monitor, just like this rain.”
Shiraishi said lightly.
It’s not just these sunny dolls made of paper. The rain that falls over Yuyin Village is different from the rain in the rest of the Rain Country.
This is caused by ninjutsu, and it is mixed with Nagato’s chakra.
As long as the rain touches his skin, Nagato will immediately sense it. Then Nagato will determine whether it is from Yuyin Village based on the chakra breath that is fed back.
Moreover, Shiraishi heard that Yuyin Village only has sunny days a few days a month, and the rest of the day will be covered by rain 24 hours a day, still covering such a large area… From the point of view of chakra, it is not something that ordinary ninjas can do.
If this cooperation can be successful, it should not be difficult to win Miaomu Mountain.
I came to a core area without villagers and wandering miscellaneous rain ninjas. It was the tallest tower in Yuyin Village.
From the entrance of the tower, Shiraishi saw a woman with short blue hair standing in the rain.
Wearing a coat with red clouds on a black background, and a blue flower on her blue hair, like those sunny dolls, they are all made of paper.
Even if it gets wet, it won’t get wet.
Xiao Nan glanced at Shiraishi and Kazuhime’s faces, and her voice was frosty: “Nagato is waiting for you, come with me.”
After speaking, without waiting for the two of them to react, they turned around and entered the interior of the tower.
Shiraishi and Kazuhime didn’t care about each other’s indifferent attitude, they followed in, took off their raincoats and put them on the shelf beside them, and came back to get them when they were about to leave.
Because there is no lifting tool inside the tower, you can only walk up the stairs step by step.
But whether it was Xiao Nan who was leading the way in front, or Shiraishi and Kazuhime who were following behind, they were not impatient at all. They kept their normal expressions. Only the sound of three people walking in the stairwell made the space seem very quiet.
On the top floor of the tower, Xiao Nan stopped in front of a door, twisted the door handle, and opened the door.
When Shiraishi and Kazuhime entered the door, Xiao Nan followed and closed the door.
There is a round table and some seats in the room.
Opposite the round table, Nagato with long red hair was sitting there.
Those reincarnation eyes that had no emotion and exuded a cold metallic luster were clearly reflected in Shiraishi and Kazuhime’s eyes.
Unlike Shiraishi, whose expression was calm, Kazuhime stared at Nagato’s Samsara eyes curiously.
“Please sit down, Mr. Shiraishi. I’m sorry for the humble house.”
“Where. It’s my side that is abrupt to take the liberty to visit.”
Shiraishi smiled and sat down opposite.
Kazuhime stood behind Shiraishi, her eyes glancing vaguely at the surrounding environment.
Xiao Nan walked behind Nagato and stood still, with an expressionless face, giving people a cold feeling.
“Then, let’s go straight to the topic. Mr. Shiraishi sent me a letter a few days ago, saying that there is an important thing to cooperate with me, and I am very curious about it. Now there are no outsiders here, so I can explain it clearly.”
After Shiraishi sat down, Nagato went straight to the subject.
Shiraishi glanced at Nagato, nodded and said, “Then I’m welcome. I want to seek the assistance of Yuyin Village and attack… Miaomu Mountain!”
Nagato narrowed his eyes. According to Shiraishi’s proposal, thousands of thoughts flashed in his mind, and then he fell into a speechless silence.
“I want to ask, Miaomu Mountain…is that the Miaomu Mountain that inherits immortal arts?”
For a long time~www.mtlnovel.com~ Nagato asked again as if confirming something.
“I don’t think there should be a second Miaomu Mountain in this world.”
Hearing Shiraishi’s words, Nagato frowned tightly.
Shiraishi continued: “Because it was us who came to seek cooperation, the conditions to facilitate this matter are that we will support Yuyin Village with a large amount of food, and the arms purchased by Yuyin will also be sold at a certain discounted price. As far as I know, food and arms are still an important shortage in Yuyin Village.”
And this part of the gap comes from the whole country of rain.
Needless to say about arms, Yuyin has no relevant industrial base, and most of the weapons that can be produced are cold weapons. The food problem has always been the biggest gap in the country of rain. Even though Yuyin has now received funding from some domestic businessmen, it is still extremely difficult to make up for a country’s food gap.
Because the land in the Land of Rain is not suitable for growing grains, the food produced by itself is very scarce, and a lot of food needs to be purchased from outside. This part consumes a lot of capital and manpower, but there are still a considerable part of the area, which is difficult to benefit.
“Similarly, when Miaomu Mountain is conquered, all the spoils of war there will be disposed of by both sides, including immortal arts… What do you think, Your Excellency Nagato?”
Shiraishi throws out these tempting offers.
Nagato put his hands on the table and lowered his head slightly to prevent people from seeing his changing expression.
Food, arms… Miaomu Mountain’s resources, immortal arts… any condition is extremely attractive.
At this moment, Nagato admitted that he was moved.
