Konoha's Balanced Ninja System

As Hiiragi expected, the length of this passage was astonishing. After several people walked for almost an hour, they finally saw the end among the endless rocks.

This also made Hiiragi and Kokiko feel a little more awake, because if they continued to turn around in this passage, they would almost faint.

However, neither Kurotsuchi nor Scorpion felt anything. The former was probably due to familiarity, while the latter probably had a body that was already different from ordinary people. Even Scorpion's face, as white as snow, had not changed much.

There is some open space at the end of the passage, which should be to facilitate the entry of a large number of people in case of emergency, and these rocks are probably very hard and stable, because even if it becomes more and more empty, there is no stone pillar to support it.

Kurotsuchi stopped in front of a stone, groping for the control mechanism on the stone.

After a moment, after guessing that he had touched it, Kurotsuchi raised his head and said cautiously, "Get ready, we are going out."

"The passage here leads to the back of the village. If we happen to encounter the security personnel, I hope you will not harm their lives unless it is a last resort."

After seeing Hiiragi and Scorpion nodding, Kurotsuchi immediately turned the mechanism.

A slight rumble came immediately, and at the end of the passage, the stone wall slowly moved to the left, revealing a bright moonlight.

Hiiragi and Xie immediately ducked out of the place. Both of them were masters. Although Scorpion had Noriko on his back, it had no impact at all. The moment he came out, he hid himself behind the surrounding obstacles until Kurotsuchi also stepped out.

With the help of the bright moonlight, Hiirato looked around. There are only some strange stones, occasionally mixed with a few trees. As for a little further away, you can see a large number of buildings. Because of the material, they glow slightly under the moon and are unique.

Behind the building, you can see a striking small rock.

Hiiragi secretly found it interesting and whispered casually: "I didn't expect that there are layers of mountain peaks outside Iwagakure Village as natural dangers. There is even a small mountain in the village. It seems that the people of Iwagakure have a special liking for mountains."

"Mountain"

Hiirato's joking words caught Kurotsuchi's attention, but when Kurotsuchi looked in the direction indicated by Hiiragi, his pupils suddenly shrank and his face instantly turned pale, as if he saw something extremely scary.

"Mountain Stone"

Hiirato was still watching the surroundings, but Kurotsuchi's tone changed too much at this time. At this time, several people were originally in a stealth state, but Kurotsuchi suddenly made a sound in shock, and even screamed out of control. Not only that, he fell directly to the ground in a moment, covering his head in pain.

Fortunately, Scorpion on the other side took action in time and immediately stepped forward to cover Kurotsuchi's mouth and quickly brought him behind the bunker.

Seeing this, Hiiragi sneaked over.

"What's wrong"

Looking at Kurotsuchi who seemed to be in fear and anxiety, Hiirato said in surprise.

"It seems that I saw something important, which caused a memory loss reaction."

Xie observed Kurotsuchi who had a headache in his arms.

"Is it a rock?"

Hiirato thought about what he just said.

"Mountain Stone"

When Hiirato mentioned the mountain rocks again, Kurotsuchi struggled up and grabbed Scorpio's arm with his right hand. However, perhaps due to brain confusion, his eyes were closed tightly and cold sweat oozed from his forehead, but Kurotsuchi still gritted his teeth and spoke. talk.

"It's very dangerous, don't get close."

At the end of the sentence, Kurotsuchi obviously couldn't hold on any longer and passed out.

Xie checked it out and said helplessly: "She fell asleep."

Hiiragi's face finally became serious.

Because according to his understanding of the comics, Kurotsuchi is not a weak woman. On the contrary, she is a very strong person. To put it more popularly, she actually has the character of a tomboy.

But what on earth could make Kurotsuchi, who has such a strong personality, be so afraid?

Another point is that at the very beginning, Kurotsuchi, as a senior member of Iwagakure, was hunted down by Iwagakure ninjas. In the end what happened

Hiirato was a little confused, but he could only be sure of one thing at this time, that is, what happened in Iwagakure Village was far more serious than he had imagined before.

"It seems that that rock is a very critical place."

Hiirato's words were exactly what Xie thought. The two slowly stood up and looked at the rocks behind the building in the distance.

"Kiko, take good care of this eldest sister." Xie Wenwen said.

"Don't worry, Teacher Scorpion"

Perhaps it was the first time she was entrusted with an important task. Noriko spoke very cheerfully, with happiness on her face.

However, Hiirato is a little worried because Noriko is too young.

Although it is indeed best not to go there for Noriko on the other side of Yamaishi, the internal situation inside Iwagakure is unknown now. What if there is really a danger?

However, Hiirato's worry did not last long and slowly disappeared.

Because Noriko skillfully took out a scroll from her arms and slapped it on the ground.

After the white smoke, there was a puppet the size of a child and shaped like a beetle.

As Noriko's small hands moved together, the puppet parts of the beetle's body shook, and instantly expanded several times, until the chest opened, and then wrapped Noriko and Kurotsuchi inside, while the beetle lay on the ground.

Hiirato was slightly startled when he saw this, feeling very interesting.

"You take care of eldest sister and hide here first. This brother and I will be back soon."

Xie whispered, and then warned, "Remember not to be discovered, and don't let your hard training go to waste."

"Don't worry, Teacher Scorpion."

Noriko's voice buzzed from inside the beetle, and then the beetle raised its six legs and swished to a more hidden location to hide.

"Are you already so proficient in puppetry?" Looking at Noriko's skillful operation, Hiirato was a little surprised.

Because puppetry is not a simple thing, it is not difficult to see from Kankuro, and this beetle puppet is no better than a humanoid puppet. It has many parts and seems to have two wings, so it is definitely not easy to control.

"Yes, she is very talented and likes to learn."

When it comes to Noriko, although Xie's face is as flat as a mirror, there is a hint of pride in his voice.

It can be seen that Xie is very satisfied with this young apprentice.

"If that's the case, then I don't have to worry."

Hiirato looked into the distance and continued, "Since Kurotsuchi can be so frightened by that rock, I'm afraid that it is not only the top priority for what happened in Iwagakure, but also a very dangerous place."

"This should be."

There is no expression change on the Scorpion's face.

"Go."

Hiiragi whispered, "But you must be careful."

"of course."

After Scorpion responded, there was no longer any drag. Even with the bright moonlight, it had no impact on the two of them at all.

Two figures flew out from the place, flickering slightly among various rocks or scattered trees. In a moment, they were far away.
