Chapter 252 The Plan
Chapter 252 The Plan
"Eight Trigrams Empty Palm!"
Amidst the billowing dust, a Hyuga clan ninja emerged, unleashing a powerful burst of air from his right hand.
The airflow sliced through the raging sandstorm and struck Chisuke in the chest in an instant, sending him flying high into the air like a rag doll.
"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet!"
A beam of fire shot down from below, striking Chisuke as he fell and instantly igniting his body.
With a bang, Chisuke disappeared.
"Oh no, that's a shadow clone!"
The Hyuga clan ninjas were the first to react and looked behind them.
Tentacles made of sand burst forth from the ground, engulfing and squeezing numerous Konoha ninjas, turning them into pools of flesh and blood.
"Alright, now I can focus on dealing with you guys."
After clearing out the Konoha scum, Sensuke and the Sand Ninja surrounded the remaining three Konoha ninja and began a righteous gang beating.
A few minutes later, Sensuke left with his men, and Yamori's shadow clone appeared, collecting the flesh and blood tissue of the Hyuga and Akimichi clan ninjas with a vessel.
According to Kiichiro, the flesh and tissue of a recently deceased person still have good vitality and are of research value.
Besides secretly helping Sensuke, Mimori also needs to collect abundant experimental materials from the battlefield.
A few days later, after Sensuke wiped out a Konoha squad that was searching for them, he looked at his remaining four men and decided to retreat to rest.
Back at the Sand Village headquarters, after handing over the mission, Sensuke saw his teacher, Pakura, and Maki.
"Teacher, you've become even more beautiful! No wonder you're the most beautiful woman in Sand Village!"
Upon seeing Yekura, Sensuke's face lit up with a bright smile, ignoring the Sand Ninja coming and going around him, and he flattered her without any scruples.
Yekura held the roll with her right hand, clenched her left fist, her eyes slightly curved, and made a smiling gesture at the corners of her mouth, but there was no real smile.
"Tell me how you've been bullying Juan lately, so I can learn from you."
That brat, how dare she tattle!
Chisuke glanced at Maki, who stared back at him with wide eyes, biting her lip, and a stubborn, defiant expression.
boom!
Yekura's fist landed on Chisuke's head, and she said in a calm voice, "I remember when I left, I specifically told you to take good care of Maki. How did you do that!"
"Private Marseille red bean paste! It's all my fault, teacher, please calm down. Getting angry is bad for your skin."
Chisuke offered no explanation, simply raising his hands high and gently lifting the smooth fists on his head. The lackey smiled obsequiously and produced a scroll.
"These are the new cosmetics I bought for you. I'm giving them to you as a token of my apology."
Yecang grabbed the scroll, tossed it lightly to the scroll, and then turned and left.
"follow me!"
"okay!"
Upon arriving at a secluded place, Yecang revealed the purpose of his trip.
"Three days ago, Rasa was defeated by Minato Namikaze of Konoha, and Konoha ninjas invaded the Land of Wind. The Kazekage sent Chiyo with troops to support them, which stabilized the defenses."
"According to intelligence, Konoha's main force is assembling and will soon arrive at the front line. At that time, we will engage in a decisive battle with Konoha."
Chisuke listened quietly, then asked, "What is my mission?"
Yekura looked north and calmly said, "To achieve victory, we need the help of allies. The Kazekage has sent us to Amegakure to persuade them to attack Konoha and tie down some of Konoha's forces."
“It’s a diplomatic mission.” Chisuke frowned slightly. “Does the Kazekage have any other requirements?”
Ye Cang shook his head: "I have no demands. I have been given full authority and can make decisions on the spot."
"That's fine too. This is Rasa and Chiyo's territory. If we leave it here, it might get sold off at any time."
Chisuke smiled and spoke his mind, leaving Maki, who was standing next to him, dumbfounded.
For this little girl, this power struggle severely impacted her innocent heart.
Yekura also saw Maki's shocked expression, but said nothing.
She brought along a weaker disciple on this mission to give him some serious training.
Juan has great talent, but unfortunately she is too kind and naive. It is necessary to let her see the dark side of the world.
To maintain secrecy and save time, the three of them immediately set off towards Amegakure.
At the Sand Village headquarters, Rasa entered a meeting room and looked at Chiyo, who was drinking tea.
"They set off."
Chiyo placed the teacup on the table and said with a smile, "Let's tell Konoha that Pakura went to Amegakure for help. They'll definitely care a lot, hehehe."
Rasa sat down in front of Chiyo, his face full of doubt: "How can you be sure they went to Amegakure?"
Chiyo gently blew on the steam rising from the tea and said in a matter-of-fact tone, "At this critical moment when the Konoha army is pressing in, where do you think Pakura could have gone after leaving the front lines? Although the Kazekage did a good job of keeping this mission secret and did not leak any information, we can still guess by process of elimination that Pakura probably went to Amegakure for help. After all, she once fought alongside Amegakure, and there is a bit of sentimentality between them."
That's not necessarily true. Perhaps the Kazekage sent Pakura to Konoha to carry out an assassination, or perhaps he sent Pakura to impersonate a Konoha ninja and attack other ninja villages, sowing discord between Konoha and other ninja villages.
Of course, it doesn't matter if they guess wrong. Deceiving the Konoha ninja into making a wasted trip won't do any harm to the Sand Ninja.
Luo Sha's mind raced, but on the surface he still pretended to be puzzled and asked respectfully, "If I guessed correctly, wouldn't it arouse Lord Kazekage's suspicion? You know, he is very suspicious of us."
"Hehehe." Chiyo chuckled calmly a few times, then continued, "We don't even know the information, how could it be leaked? You're overthinking it."
Luo Sha nodded, unable to help but admire Chiyo's shrewdness and cunning.
Whether Pakura goes to Amegakure or not, whether Konoha intercepts or kills Pakura or not, it won't do them any harm.
The best outcome would be for Konoha to intercept and kill Pakura, eliminating a major enemy for them.
The second-best outcome was that Pakura killed Konoha ninjas. Konoha was also an enemy, so it wasn't bad that a few died.
In the worst-case scenario, if Yekura didn't go to the Land of Rain, or if Konoha didn't intercept Yekura, Chiyo wouldn't suffer any loss.
What's even more absurd is that, theoretically, Chiyo and Rasa didn't know Pakura's whereabouts, so if Pakura was killed, the Kazekage would have no excuse to blame them.
"I'll get on it right away and make sure the message gets out."
Rasa retreated to a secluded place, transformed into Sensuke, and headed northeast, where he soon encountered a Sand Ninja patrol.
"Lord Sensuke."
The patrol team stopped, and the captain and Luo Sha greeted each other warmly.
The captain's name is Makino Nanahara. He used to follow Yotsugu on missions and was considered one of Yotsugu's old subordinates. He was also quite familiar with Chisuke.
Rasa mimicked Chisuke's expression and tone, shaking his head slightly and sighing.
"My teacher is such a task fanatic. I just got back and he's already been drafted. Ugh."
Listening to Rasa's complaints, Makino Nanahara forced an awkward smile.
He can't join in the complaints about his teacher, otherwise, if it gets back to Ye Cang, he might get into trouble with him.
After grumbling, Rasa approached Makino Nanahara and whispered, "I have something to ask you. Let's find a quiet place."
After saying that, Rasa glanced at the Sand Ninja around him.
Seeing Luo Sha's serious expression, Makino Nanahara also stopped smiling and waved to his subordinates: "You go first, I'll be there soon."
