This ninja in Naruto is unscientific

Chapter 129 The Cloud Hidden Mission is Attacked

Danzo Shimura sat in the shadows, his one eye fixed on the newly delivered intelligence report about the Land of Rain on the table—the Akatsuki had been attacked by wandering ninjas and suffered heavy losses; the Akatsuki were suspected of using an electromagnetic cannon, but the Hidden Rain Village had not made any moves to attack the Hidden Cloud Village.

"An electromagnetic railgun? Nishikawa Toru..."

Danzo spat out the name through gritted teeth, the anger in his eyes gradually cooling, replaced by a chilling ecstasy.

"Great, that's really great."

Danzo let out a hoarse chuckle, the sound echoing in the empty underground space.

"I was just looking for an excuse to get back at you, and you've actually handed me your weakness."

"Colluding with foreign armed groups and smuggling Konoha's core weapons..."

Danzo suddenly stood up, and in that instant, he seemed to have grasped fate by the throat.

"This is a capital offense of betraying the village."

"Whether you're Orochimaru's right-hand man or a member of the police department, no matter how much Hiruzen favors you, you can't cross this line!"

Previously, Nishikawa Tetsu's actions were all within the rules, and he even made money for the village, making it difficult for Danzo to take action. But now, these electromagnetic cannons that have appeared in the Land of Rain are irrefutable evidence of his crimes!

As for Hanzo...

"Hmph, that old fox Hanzo."

Danzo let out a cold snort and rubbed his fingers hard on his cane.

"They used my information to drive away Jiraiya and teach the Akatsuki a lesson, but then they went back on their word and didn't want to offend the Land of Lightning."

He understood the mindset of this kind of politician all too well. Hanzo wanted Akatsuki's money, but he was also wary of Akatsuki's growth and didn't want to be used as a pawn by Konoha.

"Just you wait, Hanzo. We'll settle our score later!"

Danzo's eyes turned sinister.

"We must never let anyone from Kumogakure leave the Land of Fire alive."

Danzo looked at the twelve Root assassins kneeling below.

These twelve Root ninjas were orphans he had personally trained. None of them possessed the bloodline limit of Konoha, nor were they given the Tongue Trap Extinction Technique. They were entirely products of brainwashing.

Listen.

His voice was icy cold and devoid of any emotion.

"Kill the entire Cloud Village delegation and burn their goods. Remember, leave no trace of Konoha in this operation."

These people should be enough to deal with the Cloud Village delegation, since the Cloud Village delegation only has two Jonin including A.

"Yes."

The twelve dark figures responded in unison, then vanished into the darkness like smoke.

Danzo's eyes gleamed with calculation, and a cold smile crept onto his lips.

……

On the border of the Land of Fire, in a dense forest.

The Cloud Village's forces are advancing rapidly.

Compared to their earlier aggressive demeanor, the group now appeared somewhat subdued.

Although some civilian technology products such as air conditioners and refrigerators were installed, to the Cloud Ninja who revered martial prowess, it always felt like an attempt to cover up the failure of this trip.

Ai, who was walking at the very front, was in an extremely bad mood.

He arrived empty-handed, unable to even touch the weapon he had intended to take back for research. Instead, he ended up seeing a bunch of plugged-in junk in that so-called exhibition hall.

"Damn Konoha brats..."

Ai punched a large tree by the roadside, causing the leaves to fall in a flurry.

"What lighting equipment? What civilian technology? They're clearly making a fool of me! That Nishikawa Tetsu, not a single word of truth comes out of his mouth!"

The Cloud Village Jonin beside him cautiously advised, "Lord Ai, calm down. Although we didn't get the weapon, Lord Raikage will probably be happy to take these appliances back, after all, they can improve things..."

"Shut up!"

Ai glared at him, his muscles tense, and his lightning chakra flickering due to his emotional fluctuations.

"Do I lack those things? What I lack is face! Coming all this way feels like I'm just a sucker handing them money!"

He was furious that he had been defeated by Minato Namikaze, who was a few years younger than him. He had nowhere to vent his anger and wished he could find a punching bag to beat him up.

Just then.

"Boom—!!!"

The ground ahead suddenly trembled violently, and several huge earthen walls rose from the ground, instantly separating the Cloud Village's team.

"Earth Release: Earth Rising Spear!"

Countless sharp rock spears shot out from all directions, carrying a chilling killing intent as they headed straight for the Cloud Village group.

ambush!

"Enemy attack! It's earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a technique used in martial arts)!"

The Cloud Village ninjas reacted swiftly, quickly forming a defensive formation.

But the attackers were clearly prepared. Twelve Root ninjas, dressed in black to disguise themselves, wore masks bought from street vendors and carried sharp blades. They emerged from behind the earthen wall like ghosts.

Their movements were ruthless and precise, each move aimed directly at vital points; it was the fighting style of a suicide squad.

"Pfft!"

A Cloud Village Chunin was unable to dodge in time and was pierced through the shoulder by a kunai.

"court death!!!"

A furious roar echoed through the mountains and forests.

Ai, who was already on the verge of exploding, was now like a powder keg that had been lit and exploded completely.

"I was just looking for someone to vent my anger on, and you guys delivered yourself right to my doorstep?!"

"No matter who you are! Turn you all into scum!"

"Lightning Release Chakra Mode - Full Power!"

"Zzzzz—Boom!"

A violent blue lightning bolt shot into the sky, enveloping Ai in a blinding ball of lightning.

The ground beneath his feet instantly shattered, and he vanished from the spot.

next second.

"Bang!"

A Root ninja who had just finished using Earth Release was struck hard in the chest by a heavy fist wrapped in lightning before he could even form hand seals.

There is no suspense.

The Root ninja's chest collapsed, and he flew out like a cannonball, crashing into three large trees before stopping, his internal organs and blood splattering all over the ground.

"Too weak! Too weak!"

Ai's figure left trails of blue afterimages on the battlefield.

Tactics and teamwork are all a joke in the face of absolute speed and power.

He doesn't need weapons; his body is the strongest ninja tool.

"Earth Release·Earth Style Wall!"

Three Root ninjas attempted to join forces for defense.

"Heavy Storm!"

Ai's elbow slammed down like a heavy hammer, accompanied by a sonic boom.

"Snap!"

The thick earthen wall shattered like a biscuit, and the three Root ninjas behind it were directly shaken, bleeding from all seven orifices and collapsing to the ground.

This is the strength of the future Raikage.

Just two minutes.

Of the twelve disguised Root elites, only the leader was still barely holding on; the rest lay on the ground, either dead or maimed.

"Huff... huff..."

The Root Corps Captain leaned against a tree, his mask half-broken, revealing the lower half of his face covered in blood.

He stared in horror at the monster, its body crackling with lightning, as it approached step by step.

Is this A from Kumogakure? His physical vitality is inhuman! The intelligence was wrong; this guy is a beast!

"Speak! Who sent you?"

Ai walked up to him, lifted him up with one hand, and looked fierce.

The Root Division Commander didn't speak, but his eyes sharpened, and he bit down hard on the poison sac and curse mark under his tongue.

If the mission fails, death is the only outcome; we must not expose Lord Danzo.

"Want to commit suicide?"

Ai snorted and, with lightning speed, dislocated his jaw with his other hand.

"Click."

The Root Division Commander could only utter "hoho" sounds, his eyes filled with despair.

Ai roughly tore open his clothes, trying to find his identification.

However, there was nothing inside, not even the underwear, which was just generic stuff without any markings.

"It's done quite cleanly."

Ai squinted and casually tossed the useless man to his subordinates.

"Tie him up and take him back to Cloud Village! I have plenty of ways to make him talk!"

He glanced at the corpses scattered on the ground, and finally felt some relief from his frustration.

"Hmph, it's definitely more fun to have a fight."

"Get the troops together and speed back to the village! I need to go back and drink an ice-cold Coke!"

……

Meanwhile, on the western border of the Land of Fire.

On the desolate Gobi Desert, the fierce wind whipped up sand and gravel that stung our faces.

Jiraiya was squatting on a towering rock, holding the binoculars that Nishikawa Tetsu had given him, and had been observing here for two whole days.

As far as the eye could see, apart from a few lizards and the occasional passing caravan, not a single Iwa ninja could be seen.

Even the watchtowers on the Iwagakure side were unusually quiet, with no sign of any large-scale troop movement whatsoever.

"strangeness……"

Jiraiya put down his binoculars, his brows furrowing into a deep frown.

"The intelligence said that a large force from Iwagakure had gathered, and even the demolition unit had been deployed. But within a radius of fifty miles, we haven't even smelled a trace of an explosive tag."

He took out the expedited roll from his pocket and checked the stamp on it again.

The seal is genuine; it's the official seal of the secret intelligence unit.

"Could it be that old man Onoki was just feinting? Or did the intelligence unit make a mistake?"

Jiraiya jumped off the rock, grabbed a handful of sand from the ground, and smelled it.

"wrong."

As one of the legendary Sannin who had experienced countless battles, he possessed an extremely keen intuition for the battlefield.

If a large force is assembled, no matter how well it is hidden, there will still be clues—the disturbance of birds and beasts, the destruction of vegetation, or even the residual chakra in the air.

But it's too quiet here.

It was so quiet it was as if... no one had ever been there.

A strong sense of unease suddenly welled up in my heart, like a cold hand gripping my heart.

"What if... there are no enemies here at all?"

Several images flashed through Jiraiya's mind in an instant: the fear that the Konoha leadership had of the Akatsuki, Danzo's gloomy face, and... the three still-naive disciples left behind in the Land of Rain.

"A diversionary tactic?!"

Jiraiya slapped his thigh suddenly, his face turning deathly pale.

"Damn it! How could I be so stupid!"

If it really was an invasion by Iwagakure, the village could have sent someone else to investigate. Why did they specifically ask him, an idle person, to come all the way from the Land of Rain?

Even though he was in the Land of Rain, which was close to the Land of Earth, Konoha did have intelligence agents in the Land of Rain.

Not to mention these vague and ambiguous signs?

The only explanation is that someone wants him to leave the Land of Rain, and someone wants to take action against the Akatsuki.

"Yahiko! Nagato! Konan!"

Thinking of this, Jiraiya no longer cared whether the mission was real or not, and immediately turned around and rushed back to the Land of Rain as fast as he could.

"We have to make it in time! Those kids absolutely can't get hurt!"

The wind howled.

The legendary Sannin, like a panicked father, frantically ran towards the Land of Rain.
