Day two.

The motorcade, which got up early in the morning and was on its way, arrived at a lake called Hamana Lake at noon, where the motorcade took a break for lunch.

Since ancient times, large cities have been built on water, and the capital of the Kingdom of Fire is no exception. This large lake is the source of water for hundreds of thousands of people in the capital.

"After bypassing this big lake, we will soon reach the capital." Shiji Yingjing stood beside the road, holding a folding fan in his hand and pointing to the other side of the lake.

Uchiha Mikoto and Kurama Yan both looked up at the place he pointed at. The lake was very large. On the bulge on the opposite bank, one could see lush forests and smoke-filled homes. On the concave bank, due to the earth, Due to the curved surface effect, they could only vaguely see a white line on the opposite side.

Since Naoki had passed by this place several times when he went to the capital, he no longer cared much about the scenery that was very novel to Uchiha Mikoto and Kurama Yan.

At this time, he was leaning against a tree and picking his nose with a bored look on his face.

"I suddenly discovered a problem." Shengshu didn't know what was touching him, and said with a mysterious face.

"What?" The friends all looked at him in confusion.

"Don't you think it's strange? Obviously the higher you stand, the farther you can see. But just now I stood on a tree and looked across the lake, but I could only see an arc at the end. I changed to another higher one. Trees are the same, what's the principle?" Shengshu looked serious.

Kurama Yan showed a helpless expression. He didn't know why he suddenly raised such a mentally retarded question, and casually answered: "Because the earth is round."

"Is the earth round?" Shengshu blinked.

"You don't know, right?" Uchiha Mikoto heard their conversation and looked at the rope tree with suspicion.

Even Orochimaru in the distance couldn't help but glance here.

"How could I not know...I just want to test Ayan...haha...hahaha." Shengshu quickly denied it, covering up his guilt with laughter.

"He must not know. This rope tree, he didn't read the contents of the textbook that was not tested in the graduation exam at all." Kurama Yan thought silently, but he did not expose him.

In the previous life of the earth, there were still people who believed in the "flat earth theory", let alone this backward alien world.

As long as you have the strength, it doesn't matter if you are a fool.

When Naoshu saw his friends still looking at him with suspicion, he suddenly became angry and kept explaining.

What they didn't notice was that an ordinary crow in a nearby tree was looking at them with its head tilted.

……

At the same time, in a hidden bush not far from the convoy, Loquat Koji and four of his subordinates were lurking.

They were all dressed in black shorts and looked very smart. The ninja forehead protectors they were supposed to be wearing were all hidden. It was impossible to tell which hidden village they came from.

Among them, a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old, with long chestnut hair tied into a ponytail, sat cross-legged on the ground, her eyes slightly closed, and the Yin Seal tightly tied in her hands.

Others gathered around, waiting quietly.

Not long after, a crow with shiny feathers flew over and landed on the girl's round left shoulder.

"How is the situation?" Pao Haoer asked nervously.

"Captain, it's no different from what the intelligence described." The girl was about fourteen or fifteen years old. When she heard the captain's question, she opened her eyes and answered softly.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xuena. Then tell me carefully what you saw."

So the girl introduced in detail the information she had just obtained through interacting with the psychic beast.

"Orochimaru is a tall and thin man wearing a green ninja vest. He has long black hair and a very pale complexion. You should be able to recognize him at a glance."

"The target person, Shiji Ginjing, is also easy to identify. He is about 30 years old and has a similar appearance to Shiji Ginbayashi. His hair color is gray and he is wearing a red and white kimono."

"The rest include three genin who are about eleven or twelve years old, one attendant with weak chakra reactions, and several ordinary attendants."

"Okay, Xuena, this information is enough." Koji Koji stopped the girl who wanted to continue. He had already got the information he wanted to know.

As for the genin and the guards who were proficient in chakra refining techniques, he didn't care at all.

"Yeah." Xuena nodded obediently.

"Next, let's formulate a battle plan for later." Haoji Haoji slowly pulled out the big knife on his back and thrust it hard into the ground.

This broadsword was a sharp weapon passed down from his family. It was called the "Decapitating Broadsword." It was more than one meter long. Its appearance was very simple, with no unnecessary patterns, but there was a deliberately arc-shaped gap on the blade.

He looked around at the subordinates in front of him, and arranged indifferently: "Snowina will activate the illusion first later. With Xuena's illusion skills, except for the jounin named Orochimaru, the others should be unable to resist of."

Immediately, he paused and continued: "Next, I will go up and hold down Orochimaru, and you will take the opportunity to kill the target. If any of those genin release the illusion, you must also kill the target. The first priority is not to get involved with those unimportant genin."

"Of course, if those genin are really difficult to deal with and insist on protecting Shiji Gingjing to the death. You are all already chuunin or even special jounin, so you should do what you should do."

Hearing this, several subordinates nodded.

"In short, let's adapt everything accordingly." Haoji Haoji concluded, then he raised his sword, jumped up, and walked towards the place where the convoy stopped.

His subordinates followed closely behind.

"By the way, Xuena, you should be able to directly observe the enemy's chakra strength, right? Orochimaru, who is stronger compared to me?"

Loquat Koji suddenly remembered something, and while leaping forward, he looked back to ask Xuena who was following behind him.

Chakra strength and chakra quantity are two concepts, which have great reference value for judging the strength of a ninja.

"Hmm..." Xuena pondered for a while. According to her perception, the chakra strength of the Jounin named Orochimaru was very high, almost as strong as Loquat Koji.

But in her opinion, Koji Koji is proficient in various killing techniques, possesses magical weapons such as the decapitation sword, and is even more proficient in water escape ninjutsu. These are not comparable to ordinary jounin.

"Of course you are, Captain," she replied.

……

"Hmm? How come there are so many goose feathers floating down from the sky?" Shengshu stretched out his hand in confusion, and pieces of goose feathers floated into his palm and then suddenly disappeared.

"It's an illusion!" Uchiha Mikoto was startled, and was about to use the illusion dispelling method, but she felt that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier.

Kurama Yan quietly sensed a ray of alien chakra in his body, intending to disrupt his original chakra movement.

This level of illusion has no effect on him.

What he didn't notice was that in the "Book of Masters", an illusion called "The Art of Nirvana Abode" was lit up.
