Naruto: Blood Mist Escape

Chapter 14: Mind Reading

boom!

Wuxin, who was pierced by the samurai's sword, turned into smoke, and the samurai's face suddenly changed.

puff!

The samurai with the tufted hair had no time to change his tactics before a kunai pierced through his chest and went out of his body.

After succeeding in his attack, Wuxin canceled his ninjutsu, and the three clones turned into smoke and dissipated, leaving only Wuxin's real body behind the samurai.

The warrior's eyes widened, his face filled with unwillingness, and he fell to the ground with no strength left.

Wuxin behind the warrior shook his head slightly and said:

"The one whose center remains untouched is the real one? Could it be that simple?"

When Wuxin used the clone technique, he moved one step further and with just a simple trick, he killed the warrior with sharp swordsmanship with just one clone technique.

Wuxin killed the warrior, but did not forget his main business. He made seals with his hands. After nearly thirty seals, Wuxin separated his hands, put the index and middle fingers of his left hand together and placed them in front of his chin, maintaining the seal with one hand, and pressed his right hand on the head of the kneeling warrior's body.

"Ninjutsu: Mind-Reading Technique!"

Mind-reading technique is a ninjutsu that allows one to sneak into another person's brain and read their memory without any equipment.

Wuxin has only mastered this ninjutsu for a short time, and this is his first time practicing it other than at home.

Wuxin has been the top of his grade for many years, which makes Wuxin's father realize that this is not Wuxin's limit, so he starts to teach Wuxin his specialty, the mind-reading technique. As for the training method, he picks up a human head, puts it on the table, and lets Wuxin practice.

Living people, undecayed corpses, or just a head can all be read. Compared to practicing by pressing the head, this time the target of reading is a complete person, which is simpler than practicing.

Wuxin closed his eyes tightly and easily dived into the warrior's memory, skipping over most of the previous ones and checking the recent memories.

Under the moonlight, a young man put his right hand on the head of a kneeling warrior. Both of them were motionless, and the scene was a bit creepy.

About half an hour later, Wuxin opened his eyes and released his hand that was pressing on the warrior's head.

"Did you read any useful information?"

Murayama Yuto stood beside Wuxin at some point, and when he saw Wuxin open his eyes, he started asking.

Wuxin was startled by the abrupt words of Murayama Yuto next to him. After reacting, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied:

"This samurai's name is Koizumi Saburo. He is a samurai of the Iikawa family and serves under a man named Iemasa Iikawa."

Wuxin's forehead was covered with sweat, and he was exhausted from practicing the mind-reading technique for too long.

"Oikawa Iemasa? Mrs. Kawaguchi's family?"

Murayama Yuto was a little surprised and did not ask whether the information was correct. The information read by the mind-reading technique, even if it was handed over to the village's analysis class, the analysis result would probably be just like this. There would be no mistake in the information.

"Mrs. Kawaguchi's family? It seems the situation is a bit complicated."

When Wuxin heard what Murayama Yuto said, he immediately realized the complexity of the matter.

If the Oikawa family is Mrs. Kawaguchi's maiden family, then it is very intriguing that Mrs. Kawaguchi entrusted ninja guards.

"If the attackers behind the attack are Mrs. Kawaguchi's family, the Kawa family, this matter needs to be reported to Mrs. Kawaguchi."

Murayama Hayato looked deep in the eyes and realized the connection.

In the Land of Water, a woman will take her husband's family's surname after marriage. Mrs. Kawaguchi entrusted ninjas to guard the mine, which should be on the side of her husband's Kawaguchi clan.

If the identity of the attacker behind the scenes is confirmed, it will not be difficult for the ninja to eliminate him. The requirements for completing this B-level mission are: the first is to guard for three months, and the second is to investigate and eliminate the attacker.

The identity of the attacker has been investigated, but the identity is somewhat sensitive, so it would be best to seek the client's opinion before making a decision.

After thinking for a while, Murayama Yuto continued softly:

“After daybreak, we will report to Mrs. Kawaguchi.

Wuxin, you performed well. Go and have a rest. I will be on duty next."

"Yes!"

Receiving the praise from the senior ninja, Wuxin responded calmly and, with a few leaps, reached the top of the city gate tower at the east gate.

Tired, Wu Xin lay on the quilt on the floor and closed his eyes, muttering to himself, wondering whether the three-month guard mission could be completed the next day.

Wuxin was a little curious about the mission, and couldn't hide his tiredness, and soon fell asleep in a daze.

early morning

The cockcrows in the mountain village were so loud and vigorous that they woke Wuxin up. Wuxin rubbed his eyes and sat up.

"Are you awake? Pack up and follow me to the River Mouth Castle."

Murayama Yuto was sitting cross-legged on the floor, leaning on his long sword. When he saw Wuxin stand up, he immediately stood up.

"Yes!"

Wu Xin responded with sleepy eyes, washed up quickly, and folded the bedding into his backpack.

......

Estuary Castle

In the main hall, the beautiful Mrs. Kawaguchi and the young head of the Kawaguchi family were kneeling on the mat in the middle of the tatami, while Wuxin and Murayama Yuto were kneeling below, acting like retainers.

Mrs. Kawaguchi looked angry after listening to Murayama Yuto's report. After a long silence, Mrs. Kawaguchi bowed and said softly:

"Thank you all for your help. The guarding mission ends here. The Hekou Clan will pay the subsequent commissions."

"This... Madam, the guarding period for this mission is three months. We in the Hidden Mist Village are a village of integrity and responsibility.

This completes the task... I am really ashamed to accept this, may I ask if you need...”

Murayama Yuto spoke respectfully, and at the end, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Wuxin sat next to Murayama Yuto, feeling a little unhappy inside but saying nothing.

Mrs. Kawaguchi shook her head slightly, her expression changed from anger at the beginning to sadness, and she said:

"No, we, the Kawaguchi family, will handle our own affairs properly. Mr. Yongren, I heard that the creed of ninjas is to keep secrets, so please don't spread this matter..."

As expected, Mrs. Kawaguchi rejected Murayama Yuto's proposal. After all, she was married into the Iikawa family. Although she had changed her surname to Kawaguchi, how could she possibly kill her parents and brothers from her natal family so rudely?

Moreover, the Ikawa family was a retainer of the Kawaguchi family. If the retainer tried to seize the property of the Kawaguchi family, such a thing would also affect the reputation of the Kawaguchi family. The Kawaguchi family was one of the great nobles of the Water Country. If the matter spread, they would be labeled as lax in managing their subordinates and not good at judging people, which would damage the reputation of the Kawaguchi family in the court of the Water Country.

Murayama Yuto knelt down and bowed, saying in a deep voice:

"Keeping secrets is the first quality of a ninja, please rest assured, ma'am!"

"Thank you so much. Thank you for your hard work, please go back. If you need anything, I will entrust the Hidden Mist Village with it again."

Mrs. Kawaguchi, who was sitting on her knees, bowed and saluted. After she finished speaking, she took the young master beside her and stood up and left.
