Tsunade, you're really drunk!

In the Land of Fire, inside a retro and exquisite classical building, four ninja teams consisting of twelve members of the Uchiha clan stood on both sides of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

Daimyo Ashigao sat on the steps at the front of the crowd, looking at the Uchiha guards beside him, feeling quite satisfied.

"Oh, my dear friends, look at the guards I invited from Konoha Village. They are all elite ninjas from the Uchiha clan. After learning about the reform of the Konoha Police Department, a secondary formation was formed in Konoha. I spent a lot of money to invite these ninjas to open your eyes!"

Lu Gao looked at the other nobles on both sides of the stage with pride and smugness on his face, raised the paper fan in his hand to cover his mouth and smiled.

These twelve Uchiha ninjas were an elite team led by jonin and composed of chunins. In order to invite these twelve people to the palace, he spent 800 million taels to issue a large commission to Konoha Village and personally entrusted it to the Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen to handle it.

Because of this incident, Kazuma, one of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas, contradicted him, which made him so angry that he even said that Konoha Village having a Hokage's village was destroying the peace and stability of the Land of Fire!

Are you kidding? This was the one country, one village system created by the Ninja God Hashirama, and the five major countries all implemented it. He was very satisfied with the performance of Konoha Village, and it had never been defeated in several Ninja World Wars.

What's more, Tsunade is his niece, and he is Tsunade's grandfather, and his relationship with Konoha is even closer. He just doesn't like the guy in Konoha with a bandage on his head and a cane in his hand. He looks gloomy and doesn't look like a good person.

The nobles in the audience were also discussing this.

"I seem to have heard that there was such a thing. A few days ago, I heard many businessmen from Konoha bragging that they had seen the square formation."

"The Uchiha ninjas, although they are powerful, have bad personalities. How good can they be? I dare not make any rash judgments before I see it with my own eyes."

It seems that this noble had once hired Uchiha ninjas, but they were not satisfied with the Uchiha's service attitude.

"Master Lu Gao, how about letting them go now?"

"Uchiha Jikura, please take them through the gate to the nobles and open their eyes."

"Yes!"

Uchiha Zhikura walked out the door with the other eleven people with an expressionless face.

Although he looked unhappy, he actually laughed in his heart. He had never carried out such an easy A-level large-scale mission in his life. He originally thought that the daimyo wanted to go out for sightseeing and that was why he found so many guards.

I didn't expect that after receiving the mission requirements and going to the Daimyo's Mansion in the Land of Fire, I have been here for a week and all I have to do is stand in the palace and walk in formation every day.

And it was not as boring as he imagined. There were a lot of gossips in the speeches of the nobles and daimyo! For example: the young master of a certain family was too romantic and sick, the eldest princess of his family cheated on her husband's father after marriage, and the young master of one of the two families who had just married fell in love with the brother of the person he was engaged to!

But none of this matters. What matters is the money! You know, the mission deadline is over tonight, and he, the team leader, can go back to the village to collect his reward, which is estimated to be at least 100 million taels. After all, he is the person in charge of this mission.

So, Zhicang formed a formation outside the door and started marching in formation!

The sound of orderly footsteps came from outside the palace.

When the team entered the palace, the nobles on both sides were immediately shocked by the scene before them.

The daimyo once again covered his mouth with a paper fan and laughed. He had seen this scene more than a dozen times in the past week, but he still enjoyed it. He liked to see the shocked looks on the faces of these nobles, which gave him great satisfaction and a sense of superiority in his heart.

The formation ended, and at night, Uchiha Jikura and his clansmen bid farewell to the daimyo and left, heading towards the village.

The dark clouds obscured the full moon high in the sky, the moonlight was blocked, and the colors in the forest became even darker. Uchiha Zhikura raised his hand to signal to stop.

"Uchiha Tetsuyu, Uchiha Eiki, and Uchiha Li, you three teams should rest first. I will lead the night watch."

Just like that, the members of the other three teams leaned against the tree trunks and closed their eyes to fall asleep.

However, two kilometers behind them, more than thirty Root ninjas followed behind them, led by Aburame Ryoma, a total of twelve Jonins! The rest were the weakest Chunins.

"The goal of this mission is to kill these twelve Uchiha rebel ninjas. Remember, do not destroy their eyes. That is what Lord Danzo wants. Do you understand?"

"Yes, understand!"

"set off!"

The Root Ninjas are all proficient in assassination and concealment. Even if they are at the level of Chunin, there are many ninjas who have successfully assassinated Jonin. After all, ninja is a profession with high offense and low defense.

Danger and murderous intent were approaching Uchiha Zhikura and others step by step.

The surroundings were silent, even eerily quiet, which made Zhikura feel something was not right and uneasy, so he decisively opened the Three-magatama Sharingan to investigate.

!!!

Zhikura's rich experience made him feel that there was some danger, but he did not expect that dozens of ninjas were sneaking towards them.

He immediately reached back and prepared to take the ninja tools.

However, all of this was seen by Aburame Ryoma, who immediately ordered an attack.

Countless shurikens, kunai, and iron needles came towards them.

"Enemy attack! Get up quickly!"

Although Zhikura had woken them up as soon as possible, five Uchiha Chunins were still killed by being hit directly in the vitals, and even Uchiha Tetsuyu's arm was stabbed by the kunai.

However, the encirclement of the Root Ninjas has been formed, and each team leader is facing attacks from three Root Jonins at the same time.

"Dance of the Three Suns and Moons!"

Three black shadows with silver light flashing in their hands killed Uchihali.

It was not until this time that Zhikura realized after seeing the opponent's swordsmanship that it turned out to be a ninja from Konoha. It must be the Root without a doubt. He will definitely not survive today, and he must find a way to pass the information back!

Zhikura instantly stepped back to create some distance.

"Psychicism!"

"Meow~Summon... Meow!!!!"

The summoned ninja cat's tail was directly affected by the Fire Release Ninjutsu, and it let out an ugly curse!

"The roots have taken action! Go back and tell the clan leader for me!"

After saying this, he immediately ended the spiritual connection.

"He really fought hard. I didn't expect that in order to pass on information and protect the ninja cat, he would use his body to resist the sharp attack."

At this moment, the surface of Zhikura's right arm had been carbonized by the burning of Fire Release. The entire right arm lost consciousness and fell by his side. The feeling of numbness began to spread along his right arm.

Zhikura gritted his teeth, picked up the knife in his left hand and cut off his right arm.

"You bastards from the root, even if I die today, I'll take a few of you with me!"

Zhicang's face was fierce. The moment he saw the other party, he knew that he could not escape. Fortunately, the information was passed back. Now, he could fight with confidence. It was a pity that he felt sorry for his young son and wife at home...

A moment later, the ground was covered with blood and broken limbs. The Uchiha ninjas had been completely wiped out. Ryoma stepped on Zhikura's body, ready to reach out to dig out the other's eyes, but suddenly his fingers pierced through the body.

Longma frowned and immediately retreated.

suddenly!

The dead Zhikura appeared behind Longma intact, but the pupil of his left eye had turned white and turbid.

Lift up the ninja sword and swing it down instantly!

"Uchiha Sword Style—Sword Leaping Flame!"

The ninja sword wrapped in blood-red flames slashed out from behind Aburame Ryoma.

The inertia of retreating backwards meant that Longma, who had sensed the danger, had no time to change direction, and could only try his best to shift his body to the right!

"boom!"

With the sound of his arm falling to the ground, Longma couldn't help but roar at the burning pain in his broken arm.

"You damn Uchiha! What qualifications do you have to resist! You are nothing but a cancer to Konoha!"

Dozens of ninja tools attacked Zhikura in an instant. After using Izanami once, he didn't have much physical strength and chakra left. The sword leaping flame just now directly drained him, and he was no longer able to dodge.

"Pfft!"

The ninja tools pierced through Zhikura's body, and some were stuck directly in his flesh.

Although Zhicangjian failed to kill the opponent, he had weakened the opponent's strength, avenged his broken arm, and relieved his hatred.

His body fell backwards, with only one thought in his mind: Deputy Clan Leader Qianye, you must avenge us, and please treat my wife and children well...
