Naruto: Blood Mist Escape

In early April, all things have come back to life, the biting cold wind of winter has completely dissipated, and the weather is gradually getting warmer.

In the capital of Kawanokuni, where spring is in the air, the streets are bustling with more pedestrians and citizens, and are full of life.

On the streets of Kawanokuni, a circus troupe from an unknown country set up a stall and performed, attracting the attention of passers-by.

There were a large number of onlookers, including Wuxin. Looking at the crowded crowd, Wuxin lost the idea of ​​squeezing in.

There were few entertainment options in this world, and the circus aroused Wuxin's curiosity. Wuxin jumped onto the roof of a two-story house not far away and watched the circus performance from a high vantage point.

In the circus, clowns performed magic tricks and animal trainers controlled tigers, lions and other wild animals to bow to the crowd or walk through fire rings. It was very exciting and drew cheers from onlookers.

"Interesting performance. Learning ninjutsu and watching a play, this is what we teenagers should do..."

Wu Xin, who was sitting on the roof, watched with great interest, only feeling that he was missing some melon seeds and peanuts in his hands.

On the outskirts of the circus, the tall Murayama Yuto stood with his hands folded across his chest. Even standing on the outskirts did not affect his vision at all. He looked aloof, but his eyes were fixed.

howl!

A loud eagle cry was heard in the sky, and a falcon swooped down from high in the sky, directly attacking the crowded crowd gathered in the circus.

The circus was so lively that people were not aware of the falcon in the sky. Murayama Yuto disappeared from the spot and appeared on the roof of a three-story building next to him, with his left hand raised.

howl!

The falcon roared again and swooped down on Murayama Yuto, but it flapped its wings and slowed down, and finally landed steadily on Murayama Yuto's raised left hand.

Murayama Yuto skillfully pulled out a piece of paper from the small bamboo tube at the base of the falcon's claws, then raised his left hand and released the messaging ninja hawk.

Murayama Yuto held the note in both hands and read it carefully. At first, his face showed surprise. As he read on, his face became worse and worse, and in the end, his face turned ashen.

Murayama Yuto took a deep breath, then slowly folded the note and put it away.

Wuxin and Murayama Yuto were not far apart. Wuxin, who had excellent eyesight, noticed Murayama Yuto's expression and thought to himself:

"Summon Ninja Hawk, instructions from the village?

Teacher Yongren's face looked a little unhappy. What kind of mission would it be...?"

Wuxin's first guess was that Murayama Yuto had received a new mission from the village.

Murayama Yuto turned his head and looked at Wuxin, waved at him, then jumped on the roof, dodged a few times, and left.

Wuxin saw Murayama Hayato's waving gesture and lost the mood to watch the circus performance. He stood up and caught up with Murakami Hayato.

The two men shuttled through the city and came to a tall water tower, running and climbing up the tower sideways.

This kind of water tower building is difficult for ordinary people to climb, but for ninjas who are good at climbing walls and flying over rooftops, climbing to the top is not difficult.

"Secret mission?"

Wuxin guessed in his heart that since Murayama Yuto did not discuss with everyone in the hotel where he stayed as usual, it meant that the task he had just received might be a little special.

brush!brush!

Murayama Yuto and Wuxin climbed up to the top floor platform of the water tower. This water tower is one of the tallest buildings in the capital of Kawanokuni. There is a platform on the top floor, which is quite spacious.

Murayama Hayato stopped at the edge of the platform, facing the outside, with a solemn expression and deep eyes, as if he was looking into the distance, or as if he was in deep thought.

Wuxin stood next to Murayama Yuto and looked up at him. He didn't quite understand why the lazy Murayama Yuto suddenly became serious again. According to Wuxin's understanding of Murayama Yuto, it was very likely that a new high-level mission had been started.

"Kaguya Takema was killed by poison from a Sunagakure ninja disguised as a desert bandit, right?"

After a long time, Murayama Yuto said something that made Wuxin feel a little puzzled. He did not look at Wuxin when he spoke, as if he was talking to himself, or as if he was asking Wuxin a question.

"Yes! I used the mind-reading technique to explore the memories of the Sand Ninjas and found information about the poison. The name of the poison is the Three Absolute Poison... It is a very tricky poison.

Although Eri Mihara and I have mastered some medical ninjutsu, we are unable to remove the poison from Kaguya Takema. We don't have enough time to prepare an antidote."

Wuxin had already reported this situation on the first day he returned to River Country. Although he didn't understand why Murayama Yuto asked again, Wuxin answered truthfully. At the end of his speech, he sighed, looked down at the city below, and seemed to recall something.

"Kaguya Takema, poisoned to death...

So, how did Mai Kizuna die?"

Murayama Hayato's gaze was somewhat deep, and he was still looking into the distance, not looking at Wuxin. It seemed as if he was asking a question, or as if he was talking to himself.

Wuxin suddenly turned his head and looked at Murayama Yuto. He didn't quite understand what Murayama Yuto was asking, so he was on guard and said in a deep voice:

“When we arrived at the southern port of Kawanokuni and were heading to the capital of Kawanokuni, Mai Kizuna disappeared during our investigation.

There are many Konoha ninjas and Sand Village ninjas in the capital. We have been here for a few months and have witnessed several conflicts between the two sides.

I think Mai Hozuki’s disappearance should be related to Sand Village or Konoha, but we haven’t found the body yet, so we can’t verify it…”

Wuxin slowly recounted the situation of Mai Kizuna, and at the same time provided his own analysis and conjectures.

“Hahahahahahaha!”

Murayama Hayato suddenly laughed, and it started as a chuckle, but soon turned into a hearty laugh.

After a while, Murayama Hayato seemed tired of laughing, and said with a smile:

"So, next, your next target, me or Xue Lan?"

brush!

When Wuxin heard this, he immediately jumped and put some distance between himself and Murayama Yuto.

The water tower is very tall, and the rooftop platform is quite spacious, about half the size of a basketball court. Wuxin stood in the center of the platform, looking at Murayama Yuto who was standing at the edge of the platform and slowly turning around.

"This is a secret mission assigned by the Third Mizukage. It must not be leaked..."

Wuxin narrowed his eyes, his mind racing. Murayama Yuto's words, even mentioning his name, all indicated that he knew about Wuxin's secret exclusive mission, which made Wuxin feel a little unbelievable.

The Mizukage's secret mission information could be leaked. The first thing to rule out is that his mission scroll was secretly read by others, because Murayama Yuto was normal before leaving the hotel in the morning.

Murayama Yuto's misfortune occurred after he received the message from Ninja Hawk.

The two sides stood in silence for a long time. Wuxin looked solemn and said:

“Has my mission been leaked, Mr. Yuto?

I decided to take the punishment for failing the mission, and I never thought about assassinating you."

Wu Xin revealed the truth. At this point, there was no point in pretending or denying. The details of his exclusive mission must have been leaked.

Murayama Yuto's expressionless face made Wuxin feel a little pressured. Most of his ninjutsu were taught by Murayama Yuto.

Although he was proud of himself and was better than his master, Wuxin's first thought was how he could escape when facing such a senior and experienced jonin in real combat.
