Hokage: Bragging Makes You Stronger

According to the latest information obtained by Uzumaki Kubo, Nine Tails is located near the seaside in the southern primeval forest.

After getting the information, Uzumaki Kubo was originally going to bring a few more Elite Jōnin, but Genma interrupted him.

In Genma's own words, this time although it was apparently sealing Nine Tails, creating the first Jinchūriki in the ninja world.

In fact, it is essentially a battle for Genma to test his own strength, so he does not need any helpers. The reason why he brings Uzumaki Kubo is because Kubo is good at sealing.

When the time comes to seal, he can provide guidance from the side to avoid mistakes in Genma's crude sealing skills. After all, the carrier is Genma's future wife, and he doesn't want any mistakes to occur.

Uzumaki Kubo had no choice but to agree to Genma's statement.

There were only three people traveling this time. Although it seemed a bit small, their strength was not weak.

With the strength of the two patriarchs, even if there is any accident, Uzumaki Kubo believes that it can be resolved. At the very least, Mito's safety can be guaranteed. There is absolutely no problem with this.

As for the issue of whereabouts being leaked, the Uzumaki clan had just tried their best to use Genma's genjutsu. They were very loyal and were not afraid that anyone would leak them.

The two clan leaders were responsible for covering up their whereabouts, and spies from other clans could not discover them.

Therefore, although the number of people in this group is small, they can be truly invisible. If they really bring a few Elite Jōnin originally ordered by Uzumaki Kubo, they may not be able to be so secretive.

The southern border of the Uzumaki clan is the Sarutobi clan. There are many spies from the Sarutobi clan. Along the way, both Genma and Kubo opened barriers to shield their perception. The two layers of barriers are superimposed. Even Genma himself may not be able to break through. Therefore, unless they are seen from the front, the whereabouts of the three people can be said to be absolutely secret.

While Genma is shielding his perception, he also uses his own 24-hour inspiration barrier. Under this inspiration barrier that can cover a radius of more than a hundred kilometers, any secret sentry is as useless.

However, Genma did not dare to probe too carefully, because ninjas who have reached a certain level of strength will have a certain sense of other people's probes. It is better than Hatake Isshin who discovered Genma's probe that day. This is not a barrier ninjutsu in itself. , but just the sixth sense from the strong.

Genma was naturally afraid that he might accidentally detect the leader of the Sarutobi clan and their whereabouts would be revealed.

The number of secret sentries along the way is extremely astonishing, at least about 500 people, which shows how much the Sarutobi clan attaches great importance to the Uzumaki clan.

In addition to an astonishing number of secret sentries, there are also continuous patrols. Even with Genma's perception, the three of them often need to stop and wait for the opportunity if they want to pass quietly.

Otherwise, under the layers of patrol troops, you will be discovered head-on accidentally.

As for the secret traps made of silk threads that are difficult to see with the naked eye, there are countless of them. This kind of defense is really watertight.

This is only the border of the Sarutobi clan. If it were the Sarutobi clan's territory, the deployment would probably be even more strict.

Only then did Genma understand why some families were not easily invaded by other families even though their senses were not very strong and they did not have barrier ninjutsu. This was all because of such dense guards.

Come to think of it, the Sarutobi family is not the only one with this arrangement, other families are probably not much different.

Previously, the Hatake clan used thousands of troops to attack, so Genma failed to discover their deployment. Otherwise, the Hatake clan's deployment would probably not be worse than that of the Sarutobi clan.

Genma also sighed at this time, if anyone dares to underestimate the tactical prowess of Sengoku ninja in the future, he will fight him.

Although the ninjas here are powerful, there are few tricks in the battle, but it's not that they don't use them, but under such tight defense, sneak attacks and sneak attacks are basically impossible.

Even Uzumaki Kubo, a patriarch, can be exposed accidentally. After all, not everyone has Genma's bug-level perception.

Along the way, the three of them kept their speed to a minimum. After five days of sneaking, they finally passed the tight defense of the Sarutobi clan's border. Next, they had to continue south until they entered the primeval forest in the southernmost part of the Fire Country.

After the three people left the Sarutobi tribe's defense, a black shadow suddenly appeared on the ground somewhere in the Sarutobi tribe's territory. Upon closer inspection, it was the old silver coin Black Zetsu.

"Seal Nine Tails, do you think I will let you achieve it easily? Ōtsutsuki Genma, you will pay the price for your arrogance!"

Black Zetsu's current location was far more than a hundred kilometers away from Genma, but he was still able to understand their actions, and his terrifying stealth ability was only revealed at this moment.

Genma did not relax his senses along the way, especially knowing that Black Zetsu would most likely target him, so he focused on sensing suspicious vegetation along the way, but he found nothing.

After Black Zetsu murmured something, he once again hid his figure in the darkness.

By the time Black Zetsu became active again, he had already arrived at the center of the Sarutobi clan's territory. His unpredictable stealth ability allowed him to ignore the strict layout of the Sarutobi clan and went directly to the clan leader's mansion.

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiroki, the leader of the Sarutobi clan, is handling family affairs in the room.

In the corner of the room, Black Zetsu's figure suddenly appeared.

Sarutobi Hiroki, who was still immersed in the scroll in his hand, pulled out the katana that was inseparable from his waist as soon as Black Zetsu appeared.

"Iai flash!"

After a soft drink, Sarutobi Hiroki used the astonishingly powerful Iai Slash. He once used this move to kill an Elite Jōnin instantly.

Even if a powerful man at the patriarchal level encounters this sword, he must deal with it with all his strength.

However, the knife that he was determined to win seemed to cut into the air. Sarutobi Hiroki knew that he had not hit the enemy. Although he was a little surprised, he also expected it.

After all, the enemy is a strong man who can sneak into the clan chief's mansion silently. How could he be easily killed with such a slash?

But when he turned around again, there was no shadow anywhere, only a scroll on the ground.

"Aren't you here to assassinate..."

Although Black Zetsu's actions were strange, Sarutobi Hiroki still analyzed that this person did not intend to kill him, and the purpose was probably just to give this scroll.

Before going to check the scroll, Sarutobi Hiroki thought carefully in his mind, but found that he had never heard of anyone similar to Black Zetsu. Logically speaking, a strong man of this level would definitely not be Only unknown people are right.

The scroll now came from a strange strong man. He would not go over and open it stupidly. After thinking about it, he called Genin to open the scroll, while he himself watched from a distance.
