Travel through Konoha and open treasure chests

Chapter 363: Kingdom of Wind

According to the development plan of Xiao organization,

The first stage is a period of accumulating strength. By constantly accepting commissions from various ninja villages and countries, a large amount of money and resources are gathered, and the economic systems of the five major countries are gradually eroded, thus laying the foundation for subsequent actions.

The second stage is to capture the tailed beast jinchūriki of various countries and use tailed beast weapons to conquer the world.

Although Pain is vague about the specific implementation time of the plan, Bai Mingyu, who has read the original work, is very clear that the tailed beast capture plan actually started when the future Shippuden started, which is almost seven or eight years away from now.

Before that,

Although it already has several shadow-level experts, under normal circumstances, the Akatsuki organization will not take the initiative to provoke the five major countries, but will try its best to avoid conflicts with the latter.

After all, the five major nations have stood firm in the ninja world for many years, and the inheritance of various family secrets and blood inheritance limits has been continued, and their heritage is extraordinary.

With the strength of the Akatsuki organization, it may not be too difficult to deal with one of these countries alone, and it may even be possible to win. However, once it attracts the attention of most people and the forces of the five major countries unite to resist, even if the number of shadow-level powerhouses in the Akatsuki organization doubles, they will never be able to match it.

Under such circumstances, it is somewhat intriguing to release such a mission targeting the Kingdom of Wind.

"Stealing confidential documents"

"Shouldn't the most suitable person to execute this kind of thing be Hei Zetsu?"

Whether it is Black Zetsu or White Zetsu, the means of concealment and transformation are top-notch in the ninja world. Sneaking into the mansion of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind without anyone noticing is just the simplest basic operation.

However, Bai Mingyu and Ye Cang were chosen to complete the task.

The reason given was that Ye Cang was from Sand Hidden Village and was familiar with the environment of the Country of Wind, making it easier to move around. To this, Bai Mingyu could only say hehe.

Ye Cang had just defected from Sand Hidden Village a few months ago. Luo Sha was probably still searching for her whereabouts. Running back at this time was definitely not a self-inflicted trap. Moreover, to be familiar with the environment, Red Sand Scorpion was also from Sand Hidden Village. , and there are many spies and undercover agents deployed over Sunagakure. If this task is given to him, he will probably be able to get the confidential documents without even leaving the house. Wouldn't that be simpler?

Therefore, the real intention of this mission is probably to

"Test Ye Cang and I's loyalty to the organization"

or

Bai Mingyu narrowed his eyes slightly and thought of another possibility: the requirement of the mission is indeed not to be discovered by others, but it is almost impossible to sneak into the Daiming Mansion of the Kingdom of Wind without being discovered by the guards around the Daiming, so this sentence The real meaning is that even if it is discovered, the existence of the Akatsuki organization cannot be exposed.

As for Bai Mingyu and Ye Cang

One of them is Ice Release and the other is Burnt Release. They are both rare blood successors in the ninja world. They are extremely easy to identify. As long as they use their hands, their identities will be discovered in minutes. And once Luo Sha discovers that Ye Cang has returned to The Kingdom of Wind will definitely not give up and will probably set up a heavy pursuit. In that case, even if Ye Cang wants to hold back, he can only fight with his former companions and live up to his reputation as a traitor.

Bai Mingyu himself is the same.

When he and Izumi left Konoha, their ninja numbers had been canceled and they were no longer Konoha ninjas in name.

However, as long as a letter is sent from Sunagakure Village and the news of Bai Mingyu's appearance is exaggerated, Konoha will inevitably make some expressions under pressure, even if it is just a pretense. Most of the ninjas below don't know the inside story. If they meet by chance, it will probably be the result of fighting with swords.

"It's really ulterior motives."

Bai Mingyu shook his head and put down the scroll.

He could probably guess some of Obito and Black Zetsu's thoughts, and even if there was a deviation, it wouldn't be too bad. However, Bai Mingyu didn't intend to follow their ideas. After all, it was a long trip, so he had to find a way to get some benefits for himself.

"The Kingdom of Wind"

three days later.

In the border town of the Kingdom of Wind, two figures wearing white robes appeared.

"After passing this town, you will enter the territory of the Kingdom of Wind. Be careful, there are Sand Ninja troops stationed in this town, don't be discovered by them."

Ye Cang pushed the scarf down to cover his face and lowered his voice.

"clear."

Bai Mingyu responded casually and looked up as if nothing had happened. From a distance, he saw several towering sentry towers around the town, and vaguely human figures could be seen walking inside. Among the pedestrians on the road, you can occasionally see a few tough-looking people with signs of chakra fluctuations on their bodies. They are obviously ninjas.

"For you, this time should be considered a return to your hometown."

After listening to Bai Mingyu's words, Ye Cang bit his lip secretly, was silent for a while, and said with a sense of depression in his voice: "Stop saying these words, my hometown, it sounds nice, the residents of this town are all me." My compatriots, the ninja troops stationed here, some of them may be my former teammates or subordinates, but now, we have to stand on a hostile stance. Can you understand this feeling?"

Bai Mingyu shook his head.

To be honest, Ye Cang is actually quite innocent.

Unlike Itachi who actively chose to exterminate the clan and become a rebel nin for the sake of the peace of the village, the reason why she joined the Akatsuki organization was purely because she had a boss with a low IQ.

In order to test the strength of the Jinchuuriki, he did not hesitate to send people to assassinate his own son year after year.

In order to prevent someone from threatening your status as the shadow of a village, you need to nip your opponent in the cradle in advance.

With such a wind shadow on the stall, there really is no better choice.

Ye Cang waited for a while and fell silent when he didn't hear Bai Mingyu's response.

The two replenished some water and supplies in the town, and then continued on the road, facing the wind and sand in the sky, heading toward the capital in the southwest.

Along the way, Bai Mingyu also gained a deeper understanding of the desolation of the Country of Wind. This country is indeed very poor. Almost everywhere is barren and uninhabited desert. There are very few oases that can be used to build villages. This is typical. The land is vast and the people are sparse. Perhaps because of this, every time there is a war in the ninja world, the Kingdom of Wind is always the first to participate.

Anyway, they are already extremely poor. There is nothing in the whole country except yellow sand. If they lose, they won't lose much. But if they win, other countries will be able to plunder more resources.

Driven by this kind of mentality, it is not surprising that Feng Ying, who is as narrow-minded as Luo Sha, appears.

However, poverty will lead to poverty.

The capital of the Kingdom of Wind is quite spectacular.
