Naruto Death Hero

Chapter 142 War Conspiracy

"Huh, huh," Kurosaki Ichigo slowly sat on the ground leaning against a big tree, wiped the sweat on his head and breathed heavily, the oxygen blowing through the wall of his trachea. A burning pain.

After escaping from the warehouse area, he felt inexplicably as if he was being watched. There seemed to be a pair of invisible eyes hanging behind him, staring at him, making the hairs on his back stand up.

Under this sense of crisis, Kurosaki Ichigo ran for dozens of miles without hesitation, constantly changing directions and covering up his traces. It was not until he arrived in the dense forest outside Shirone Castle that he finally got rid of this feeling. However, He was already exhausted at this time.

After resting for a while, Kurosaki Ichigo felt better. He reached into the ninja bag on his waist and took out a compass he asked for from Kakuzu. He opened the compass cover with a click of his fingers.

As the rapidly rotating pointer came to a gentle stop, Kurosaki Ichigo also determined his location - outside Shirokanishi City. He had deliberately fled in the opposite direction to the port in order to get rid of tracking, but he didn't expect to run so far away.

He tilted his head and glanced at the sky through the gaps in the leaves above his head. He knew that even if he set off now, it would probably be too late to board the last ship bound for Tea from Shirane Castle before the news of Sakada Heihachirou's death spread and Sunagakure Village blocked the port. The country's ferry.

This poor guy didn't know that it was not Sakata Heihachiro that Kakuzu was going to kill, but Shado, a very important high-level official in Sunagakure Village.

"Oh, my luck is so bad." Ichigo Kurosaki sighed and stuffed the compass back into his ninja bag, but he immediately took it out again, looked at it, and threw it away. Going out, there was a 'click' and fell into the dark shadow of the trees.

Although Kakuzu, a guy like Kakuzu, felt extremely pained when he handed this compass to him, Kurosaki Ichigo, who was very vigilant, still didn't want to keep this thing in case Kakuzu could track his location.

There is no conflict between the two now, but after the chaos in Shirane City, his head is definitely on the underground exchange list, so naturally he has to be on guard against the money maniac from Kakuzu catching him in exchange for a bounty.

But just when Kurosaki Ichigo stood up and prepared to continue on his way away from here, a cold voice came from the dark forest in front of him: "Haha, what? Are you not satisfied with my things?"

"Kakuzu?!" Kurosaki Ichigo's expression changed, and at the same time his muscles tensed up. Although he didn't know how this guy suddenly appeared here, he instinctively felt that the other party was coming from a bad person.

The person stopped at the edge of darkness, so Kurosaki Ichigo couldn't see his specific appearance. He could only see a general outline: "Your attitude doesn't seem very friendly? Just a few hours ago, we could Still an ally.”

"To be precise, it's a transactional relationship. I helped you complete things and received money. We have no relationship anymore." Although Kurosaki Ichigo's voice was very relaxed, the cold sweat secretly left on his forehead betrayed his heart.

"So, we are no longer allies? Then don't I have enough reasons to arrest you and send you to Sunagakure Village?" Kakuzu's voice contained a hint of ridicule.

Kurosaki Ichigo smiled disdainfully: "Could it be that we are allies and you wouldn't trade me for a bounty? This is not like your style, Kakuzu."

"Yes, that is indeed not my style," Kakuzu snapped his fingers, "So according to common sense, I should really fight you now, but unfortunately I did not do so."

"why?"

"Why? This is indeed a question worth thinking about, but for other people, and for me, there is only one reason, and that is that you can bring me more benefits than I can get by sending you to the underground exchange. .”

"That's really my honor." Kurosaki Ichigo's words were very humble, but his tone was full of respect. "But I don't think I have that much value."

Kakuzu shook his head: "No, no, no, you just don't realize the huge value you have!"

"For example?" Kurosaki Ichigo didn't believe what Kakuzu said at all.

"For example, you have no idea how big an impact your actions tonight will have. It can be said that almost the entire ninja world will change because of you."

Kurosaki Ichigo's expression changed. He could hear that Kakuzu was not deceiving him, but he really didn't know how his actions tonight could have such a big impact, so he frowned and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Kakuzu glanced at Kurosaki Ichigo: "Do you think I killed that unlucky guy Sakata Heihachiro today? That guy was neither strong nor powerful enough to require me to find helpers."

Kurosaki Ichigo's expression froze on his face. He never thought that Kakuzu would deceive him on this matter.

"Are you wondering who the person I killed today is?" Kakuzu grinned. Obviously, the bounty income of tens of millions of taels tonight put him in a good mood, so he would be so patient for Kurosaki Ichigo. Explain it.

"Who?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked with a complex expression.

Kakuto, who was in a great mood after receiving the intact corpse, didn't want to hide any more and directly revealed the name of the deceased: "Shado."

"Shado?!" Kurosaki Ichigo's face turned a little pale. Even he knew the identity of Shado very well. He also understood what kind of turmoil this important guy in Sunagakure Village would cause after he was killed, so I couldn't help but murmured, "How...how could this happen..."

Kakuzu sneered and said: "You have to thank yourself for using the Shadow Clone Technique, a ninjutsu that can prove your identity, in front of those guys in Sunagakure Village, otherwise I will really capture you and give it to you. It’s Sunagakure Village.”

"What do you mean?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked, reluctantly suppressing his emotions.

"Don't you think this world has been peaceful for too long?" Kakuzu did not answer him, but looked around and spoke to him, "Since the Senju and Uchiha shook hands and made peace, the ninja world has ushered in a period of nearly six years. After that, the shocking battle between Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara not only did not return the ninja world to war, but instead contributed to a more stable alliance of the five major ninja nations. It has been another six years."

Kurosaki Ichigo didn't speak, because he knew that Kakuzu's character would never say anything irrelevant, so he listened silently.

"Such a long period of peace has never happened in the ninja world, so under the peace, there are countless destructive undercurrents.

"The country that has become stronger no longer obeys the leadership of the Fire Nation. The newly appointed Shadow has abandoned the ideas upheld by the ancestors and was blinded by old hatred and immediate interests.

"Even the Kage who is still in power cannot suppress the secret struggle for power within the village. The current ninja world is like a vat filled with detonating charms. It only takes one spark to detonate.

"And you are that vital spark!"

Kakuzu's eyes swept over Kurosaki Ichigo's body, making him shiver.

"After occupying the Kingdom of Sichuan, the Kingdom of Wind obtained the water source that it had dreamed of before. The abundant water resources allowed the Kingdom of Wind to embark on the road of rapid development. Six years has been a long time for ninjas whose average life expectancy was less than 30 years ago. It’s enough to change many things, including improving the strength of the village, including becoming disloyal to the powerful Fire Nation.”

"You mean..." Kurosaki Ichigo seemed to understand something.

"That's right," Kakuzu affirmed. There was no need to say it. Both of them knew what he was referring to. "The Kingdom of Wind needs an excuse, an excuse to go to war with the Kingdom of Fire, and you used Konoha's unique You, the Ninja Shadow Clone Jutsu, just provide them with a perfect excuse."

Kurosaki Ichigo let out a long breath, and the expression on his face changed. Then he seemed to have made up his mind, but at this moment, two kunai shot out of Kakuzu's hands and nailed them to his feet.

"What are you going to do?" Kakuzu asked, but before Kurosaki Ichigo could answer him, he said directly, "Do you want to run out to clarify this matter? I don't see that although you defected from the village, you I still miss Konoha."

Kurosaki Ichigo said coldly: "So what!"

"Do you think you can change everything if you show up again? You are so naive. Do you think I was the one who killed Shahu? No, it was his subordinates who killed him."

"Haha, do you think I will believe it?" Kurosaki Ichigo sneered.

Regardless of whether he believed it or not, Kakuzu continued: "The battle between Shado and his brother Shamon for the position of the second Kazekage has become intense. Even the fierce battle of the Kazekage can't suppress their secret fight. It's just that they are scrupulous. The prestige of fierce fighting, so this kind of fighting is not brought to the surface.

"And Lie Dou's ambition has become more and more powerful as the Kingdom of Wind becomes stronger. He is already old, but he still wants to lead the Kingdom of Wind and Sand Hidden Village to do great things. His time is running out. So. Even without you, in order to satisfy its own ambitions and seize more rights, Sunagakure Village will find another opportunity, and your appearance will only advance this matter."

"So?" Kurosaki Ichigo was completely unmoved.

"So...I have to make sure you don't go out and do anything stupid!"

The chakra fluctuations in front of him suddenly became violent. Kurosaki Ichigo quickly leaned back. His lower body did not move and his entire upper body leaned down. Then a huge fireball passed over him and hit the tree trunk of the uncle behind him heavily.

As soon as Kurosaki Ichigo straightened his waist and abdomen with force, a colorless air flow rushed in front of him.

"What smell?" Kurosaki Ichigo was keenly aware of the difference in the smell of the air, but then a severe dizziness hit his mind.

On the verge of disappearing from consciousness, Kurosaki Ichigo felt bundles of living tentacles crawling onto him, tying him up tightly. See more! Prestige official account: hhxs665
