Konoha's Five Attributes Ninja
Chapter 171: Unknown Ambusher
The merchants beheaded in public by Ye Shan himself played a huge role. Those dissatisfied people left very decisively under the threat of death. No one would joke with their own life, especially in front of a bloody head. Of course, there would be a reckoning afterwards, but Ye Shan didn't care.
Even though there are many darkness and injustices in the Konohagakure, Ye Shan is a Konohagakure ninja after all. When the village is in danger, he has the responsibility and obligation to stand up. Although this approach may cause dissatisfaction among others, Ye Shan always does things according to his will. I heard that you are dissatisfied with something? Come on, come out and show us a few moves.
With a strong fist, one can speak with strength. Ye Shan is no longer the timid little Chunin shrimp he used to be. He is now qualified to do some unusual things.
When the sky gradually brightened, tens of thousands of civilians in Kikyo Castle had basically been evacuated, and many people left crying. This was understandable, as most people had lived here for decades and had saved their entire lives. Now Konoha asked them to leave with only a few belongings, and anyone would be sad.
Ye Shan stood on the top of the city wall, pretending not to hear the crying from below. He had no other choice. Once the Ninja World War broke out, the small Kikyo City would be crowded with fighting ninjas. By then, these civilians would most likely die from unknown AOE. It was better to leave crying now than to die crying.
Nara Shikatsugu, the highest commander of Kikyo Castle, slowly stepped onto the top of the city wall and stood shoulder to shoulder with Hayama, watching the migrating team moving away. After a moment, he said in a deep voice, "The order to recall the ninjas has been basically completed. Most of the patrol teams have returned to the city safely. Only a full team of ninjas in the T-shaped area is missing."
In the ninja profession, disappearance means death. There are missing ninjas every year, so it’s nothing to be surprised about.
Ye Shan's expression did not fluctuate at all. He still stood there motionless, just looking towards the desert in the distance.
"As the supreme commander, I only need to make a note on the roster when a ninja is missing. Especially at this critical moment, it is unrealistic to send out ninjas to search and rescue."
"But the identity of one person in that team is too special, so special that I can't choose to turn a deaf and dumb."
At this point, Ye Shan became interested and finally asked, "Who is that person?"
In his mind, he already had some guesses, maybe he was a good seedling from a big family, or maybe he was the son of Sarutobi Hiruzen.
However, Nara Shikatsugu's words were completely different from his guess: "Kuramatani Hisashi is in that team."
Seeing that Ye Shan looked a little puzzled, Nara Shikatsu added: "The Kurama clan is one of the few illusion clans in Konoha. They joined the village in the second year of Konoha and made great achievements in the First and Second Ninja World Wars. But because of the war, there is only one male member left in the Kurama clan now."
"If something happens to Kuramatani Hisashi, the once-prominent Kurama clan will be completely wiped out, which will be an irreparable loss for the village."
"So I would like to ask Lord Ye Shan to personally go and search and rescue, and we need a detailed result whether they are alive or dead."
A look of shock appeared on Ye Shan's face. He never expected that the matter entrusted to him by Nara Shikamura would involve the rise and fall of a ninja clan. He couldn't help but feel some admiration for the Kurama clan.
Over the years, the strength of the ninja clans, big and small, in Konoha Village has declined to varying degrees. The deaths of clan members on the battlefield have become the main reason for the demise of the ninja clans. Even the Hatake clan only has Kakashi left. As for the Kurama clan, Yeshan has never heard of it before, so it is not uncommon for them to be extinct.
However, Yeshan had to go there in person no matter what. The life and death of Kuramadani Shouzhi was no longer his personal matter. His life was linked to the decline of his family and the overall interests of Konoha. It was not reasonable for Yeshan to refuse this commission.
"I understand. Where is the T-shaped area?" Ye Shan asked.
Nara Shikasho perked up and pointed to the northeast, saying, "The T-shaped area is at three o'clock. I placed Gu Shouzhi there with the intention of protecting him, but I didn't expect that it would harm him instead."
Ye Shan patted the other person's shoulder, took a step forward and jumped down from the top of the city wall. When he was in mid-air, his body was wrapped in sky blue chakra, and a pair of water wings grew from his back. He waved them gently, and a strong wind blew, and he flew away.
Nara Shikasho stared at Ye Shan with wide eyes as he quickly disappeared from his sight, and he had a new understanding of his strength in his heart.
With the unusual five-attribute chakra and the power of a giant comparable to that of Uchiha Madara, no matter how hard the Hokage tried to deny Yeshan, he still stood at the top of the ninja world. What was even more terrifying was that Yeshan did not have any bloodline limits. He was the first civilian ninja to grow up in many years.
"Pity..."
Nara Shikatani sighed deeply and walked down the city wall. Now he was entangled with many trivial matters and did not have much time to lament the changes in the world and the people.
Ye Shan was flying close to the ground, taking everything in with his eyes slightly narrowed. Soon he frowned and found an unusual place, then folded his wings and landed there.
A bloodstained Konoha forehead protector lay quietly in the bushes. Ye Shan squatted down, dipped his finger in the blood, and looked at it carefully, even putting it under his nose to smell it.
He was no stranger to blood and could tell at a glance that the blood had not been splashed for very long, only a few hours.
Ye Shan stood up expressionlessly, and after another search, he found several broken kunai, some blood-stained steel wires and a broken ninja tool bag.
After putting everything together, Ye Shan gradually deduced the course of the battle in his mind.
About two hours ago, this Konoha patrol team encountered a powerful enemy on their way back. The battle started in an instant and ended in a short time. The strength of both sides was not on the same dimension, which could be inferred from the traces left by the wind escape ninjutsu.
The ninjas of Konoha were killed by the same wind-style ninjutsu almost at the same time. Neither the throwing of hidden weapons nor the probing of ninjutsu had the desired effect. The result of the battle was naturally the death of three Konoha ninjas.
What shocked Ye Shan the most was that if the unknown wind-style ninja was a member of the Sand Village, it would be impossible for him to be unknown with his powerful wind-style ninjutsu.
Wind-style ninjutsu is extremely lethal, and wind-attribute chakra is extremely difficult to practice. Even in the Sand Village named after the wind, there are not many such ninjas. Ye Shan really couldn't figure out why those famous ninjas would come to the border at this critical juncture to ambush a Konoha patrol team.
Kuramadani Shouzhi is just a Chunin. The Kurama clan is about to die out. Logically, there is no reason for him to be targeted by the strong...
Ye Shan's expression became solemn, and thick earth-attribute chakra appeared on the surface of his body. Then he pressed his hands on the ground, closed his eyes and began to sense.
Unexpectedly, Ye Shan did not sense any traces of anyone using earth escape or stealth techniques underground, and things seemed to become confusing.
Generally speaking, there are only two ways for a murderer to leave after killing someone. One is to leave from the surface, and the other is to leave from underground. But now Ye Shan has been searching on the surface for a long time and has not found any traces. He is confident that he can see through all disguises. So he searched underground again without giving up, but still did not find any traces. Could it be that the enemy can fly like him?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Ye Shan thought about it, and the earth-yellow chakra on his body became thicker. His hands pressed on the ground began to flash yellow light, and then he shouted loudly, and actually lifted up the ground within a radius of about 500 meters.
It was literally turned upside down. The bushes all over the surface were turned over and fell into the depths. The fresh soil was exposed to the sun under the stimulation of chakra, emitting the unique fishy smell of earth.
Ye Shan jumped onto the soft soil, bent down and searched carefully, and was stunned after a while. He saw that the soil was smooth and there was no trace of disturbance. There were only small passages left by earthworms.
The ninja world is truly full of wonders. Yeshan had never thought that there would be a ninja who could kill someone without leaving any trace at all. He couldn't help but feel puzzled.
With powerful wind-style ninjutsu and perfect concealment skills, this ninja is definitely a famous existence, and he has absolutely no motive for committing the crime.
As for saying it was an encounter battle, Ye Shan didn't believe it at all. Judging from the traces left from the battle, it was obviously a long-planned ambush. Otherwise, no matter how weak the Konoha ninjas were, they would not be unable to even send out a distress signal.
You have to know that this place is less than ten kilometers away from Kikyo Castle. Once the distress signal is sent out, relying on the mobility of the ninja, they can reach the battle scene to provide support within a few minutes, and Yeshan can provide ninjutsu assistance within two minutes. But it is a pity that the Konoha side did not send out the signal.
Therefore, the three Konoha ninjas who were moving back to the city at high speed died instantly. They were killed by wind-style ninjutsu almost the moment they wanted to perform ninjutsu. Otherwise, this situation would not have occurred.
Ye Shan let out a long sigh, dissipated the chakra on his body, carefully wrapped the relics of the Konoha ninja in cloth and put them in his arms, then tiptoed away.
After a meal, Ye Shan suddenly appeared on the pile of earth again. His sharp eyes scanned the surrounding scene, but still did not find anything unusual.
"Am I too suspicious?"
Ye Shan speculated that since there was no sign of the enemy leaving the scene, the other party was most likely still hiding in the dark, so he came back and still did not find any abnormalities.
Now Ye Shan was really helpless. He was not a perception ninja, and was not even good at basic perception methods. If there was a Byakugan ninja here, maybe he could discover something different.
At this time, the sun had already revealed its completely red face and began to radiate its heat wantonly. Ye Shan had no time to waste and flew away immediately.
It was not until noon that a black thing slowly emerged from the soil and looked towards the Platycodon City in the distance.
"It was a close call. This Ye Shan is really too insidious. Fortunately, I am better than him, otherwise I would have been exposed."
This thing is definitely not a human. It has a huge pitcher plant shell, and its face has two faces, one black and one white. Even its voice is two different. It looks creepy.
"Shut up Bai Zetsu, hurry up and leave here, don't forget the mission from that adult!"
"Yes, yes! You are right."
The monster didn't even make any hand seals as it slowly sank into the ground. Even the appearance of the soil didn't change after it passed by, which was totally different from ordinary earth-style ninjutsu.
If Ye Shan saw this with his own eyes, he would definitely be very interested in discussing the advanced applications of earth attribute chakra with the other party. Unfortunately, he was not there.
