Naruto's strongest wooden escape

"Yes." Uchiha Matsuri nodded and followed Terumi Mei.

End of corridor.

Terumi Mei opened a shoji, and a chill came from the warehouse behind the shoji.

"This is it." Terumi Mei whispered.

After entering the dark warehouse, Terumi Mei walked straight to a moldy wooden table and picked up a rusty iron box.

After opening the iron box, Terumi Mei shook her head in disappointment.

"It's been too long, it's gone..." Taking the iron box from Terumi Mei, Uchiha Matsuri curled his lips helplessly.

"What should I do?" Terumi Mei looked at Uchiha Matsuri.

"We can only go to the hometown of the Oniden clan." Uchiha Matsuri murmured.

Since there is no way to get Wu Shui Kudzu here in Gui Deng July, he can only go to the hometown of the Gui Deng clan to look for it.

After walking out of Ghost Light July's machiya, Uchiha Matsuri suddenly looked back.

"Is there something wrong with my feelings?" Uchiha Matsuri frowned and thought to himself.

From the moment he entered the machiya of Ghost Light July, Uchiha Matsuri felt a little unnatural. He always felt like someone was secretly staring at him in the dark.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Matsuri prepared to activate the Mangekyō Sharingan.

"Matthew, what are you looking at?" Seeing Uchiha Matsuri staring blankly at the machiya of Ghost Light July, Terumi Mei felt a chill on her back and asked with a slightly trembling voice.

If it weren't for the fact that the Uchiha Festival was in urgent need of kudzu, and the kudzu was in the machiya of Ghost Light July, Terumi Mei would not have come to this gloomy machiya even if she killed herself.

But just now in the machiya, Terumi Mei's back was sweating, and her arms were shaking unconsciously.

Now that she finally came out, Terumi Mei didn't want to stay in this place for another second.

"Nothing..." Uchiha Matsuri gave up on opening the Sharingan, turned to look at the pale Terumi Mei, and whispered, "Let's go."

"Okay." Terumi Mei took Uchiha Matsuri's hand and said, biting her lip.

"..."

Shortly after Uchiha Matsuri and Terumi Mei left the machiya, in front of a dusty window in the machiya, a black shadow quickly floated past.

……

In late autumn in Kirigakure Village, the weather is changeable.

As soon as the two Uchiha Matsuri walked down the mountain, drizzle began to fall from the sky.

By the time Uchiha Matsuri and Terumi Mei boarded the boat, the rain was already getting heavier.

"The hometown of the Oniden clan is fifty nautical miles southwest of the main island of Water Country." Looking at the gray-black skyline, Terumi Mei bit her lip and said.

In the next few hours, the wind on the sea gradually increased, the rain inevitably reached the level of heavy rain, and the originally calm sea became rough.

Fortunately, there was no accident in the boat that Uchiha Matsuri and Terumi Mei took before arriving at the target island.

"Is this island the hometown of the Oniden clan?" Looking at the island getting closer and closer in front of him, Uchiha Matsuri couldn't restrain his excitement.

"This is it." Terumi Mei stood up and pointed at the island and said excitedly.

"Is there anyone still living on this small island?" Uchiha Matsuri wiped the rain off his face and asked suddenly.

"There should be... no one left." After hearing Uchiha Matsuri's words, Terumi Mei smiled unnaturally.

Since the establishment of Kirigakure more than 40 years ago, the Oniden clan and the Minazuki clan have moved to Kirigakure.

Since then, the hometown of the Ghost Lantern Clan has been abandoned.

Down.

And when the last batch of Ghost Lantern clan members moved out of the Kingdom of Water, the hometown of the Ghost Lantern clan was completely uninhabited.

After Terumi Mei finished speaking, Uchiha Matsuri opened the Mangekyō Sharingan.

"No... no chakra." Uchiha Matsuri carefully observed the island and confirmed that no one was inhabiting the island.

About 10 minute passed.

When the boat docked, Uchiha Matsuri and Terumi Mei finally set foot on the island.

In the middle of the island in front of you is a hill several hundred meters above sea level. The hill is surrounded by tropical rainforest.

Deep in the rainforest, several Warring States Period-style machiyas stand quietly here.

"Does Kirisui Kudzu really grow in this place?" Walking to the front of the machiya, Uchiha Matsuri asked his question.

All the way, Uchiha Matsuri was observing.However, there is no trace of Kudzu either on the coast or in the tropical rainforest.

Unconsciously, Uchiha Matsuri began to doubt Terumi Mei's statement.

"I don't know either." Terumi Mei shook her head and said apologetically, "I just heard from Teacher Qiyue that there is kudzu growing on this island..."

"...To tell the truth, the last time I came to this island, I never saw an herb like Wu Shui Kudzu with my own eyes..."

Although this is not the first time Terumi Mei has set foot on this island, until now, Terumi Mei has never seen the kudzu growing on the island with her own eyes.

"..."

After hearing Terumi Mei's words, Uchiha Matsuri could only shake his head helplessly.

Since Terumi Mei didn't know the specific location of Kirisui Kuzu, he had no choice but to search for it on this small island himself.

However, this island is not too small. If you really want to find it, it will probably take four or five days to search every corner of the entire island.

The rain is still not letting up.

Due to the accumulation of water, the path leading to the machiya gradually became muddy.

After taking a look at the machiya in front of him, Terumi Mei immediately took Uchiha Matsuri's hand and walked quickly towards the machiya, the hometown of the Oniden clan: "The rain is too heavy, let's take shelter from the rain first."

"This is the only way." Uchiha Matsuri did not refuse, and ran towards the Machiya with Terumi Mei.

wow.

Terumi Mei opened the machiya shoji, and a finger-thick dust on the tatami hit her face.

"Cough cough cough." Uchiha Matsuri and Terumi Mei coughed a few times at the same time.

"No one has lived here for decades." Using the faint light outside the house, Uchiha Matsuri took a general look at the situation inside the machiya.

Similar to the Machiya in Ghost Light July, there was also a musty smell coming from the old Machiya.

However, compared to the machiya in July, there is obviously more dust and cobwebs here, and there are only a few simple tables and teapots left in the machiya.

"My whole body is wet." Uchiha Matsuri glanced at the soaked clothes on his body and curled his lips.

Without any hesitation, Uchiha Matsuri opened the shoji and walked towards the other rooms.

wow.

Uchiha Matsuri opened the shoji in another room.

In the house, except for a few spiritual tablets, Uchiha Matsuri saw the stove he was looking for.

Click.

Uchiha Matsuri picked up and lit a stick of incense and inserted it into the stove in front of the memorial tablet.

"Ok?"

Just when he was about to leave, Uchiha Matsuri suddenly turned his head.
