"Kakuzu, how credible do you think what he just said is?"

After Black Zetsu "left", Guan Liyuan asked Kakuzu about him.

"Among the formal members of Akatsuki, those who are not companions know each other very little. Zetsu doesn't have much contact with people other than Pain... But judging from what he just said, if the method of 'Phantom Dragon Nine Sealings' is true, it seems that we can believe it for the time being." Kakuzu said. As

Kakuzu said this, he also looked at the "Geido Demon Statue" whose seven eyes were fully opened!

That's right, Guan Liyuan had used the method Black Zetsu said before to seal the complete shells of the other three tailed beasts, and replaced the four incomplete shells with complete ones.

Now, except for the one-tailed Shukaku and the five-tailed Mu-oh, the other seven tailed beasts have been "charged". The aura of the "Geido Demon Statue" is even more terrifying, but... perhaps because they are all "shells", it still feels stupid to control them, and it doesn't feel like controlling a living thing, but more like a weapon.

Guan Liyuan naturally didn't need to find Kakuzu to verify which of Black Zetsu's words were credible and which were not. He just wanted to confirm whether his acting was natural. Since Kakuzu also believed it, Guan Liyuan would not be doubted if he believed it!

As for Black Zetsu himself... Guan Liyuan had sent him to the Kingdom of Wind to investigate the situation.

According to Black Zetsu, he could work for Guan Liyuan first, and at the same time observe and assess whether Guan Liyuan could inherit the "Spirit of the Ninja Sect".

However, because Guan Liyuan understood that Black Zetsu had deliberately been discovered by him before, it was impossible to be sure whether Black Zetsu was following him now, so he had to act on the premise that "Black Zetsu was watching me".

This made Guan Liyuan feel awkward, and his desire for the One-Tailed Shukaku and the Five-Tailed Mu-Ou became more and more intense...

However, the location of the One-Tailed Shukaku was never a secret to Guan Liyuan, but the Five-Tailed Mu-Ou seemed to have been hidden by the Iwagakure Village. With the current intelligence strength of the Federation on the Iwagakure Village, it was impossible to detect the location of the Five-Tailed Jinchūriki "Ban".

A day later, Guan Liyuan and others had entered the Kingdom of Wind. On the way to the Sand Village, Guan Liyuan also noticed the customs of the Kingdom of Wind...

Very poor!

The southwest of the Ninja Continent is generally poor, but the security situation should be considered good among the five major countries, and the degree of dependence on the "Hidden Village" is relatively small.

Under the suppression of the Royal Family of the Kingdom of Wind, the policy of "better with friendly countries" has always been adopted for the Sand Village. For the same task, the first choice of the Kingdom of Wind is to protect the ninjas to solve it by themselves, and the second choice is to hire Konoha... After

Luo Sha came to power, he gradually murdered the heroes of the Hidden Village, won the support of the Royal Family of the Kingdom of Wind, and gave up a lot of the interests of the Sand Village. Since the Third Ninja World War, the Sand Village has gradually lost the control of the Royal Family of the Kingdom of Wind and its influence in the country under Luo Sha's power transaction.

In the later period when Luo Sha served as the Kazekage, he even had to cooperate with Orochimaru in an attempt to regain power. However, the

result was not what he wanted. Luo Sha was killed by Orochimaru, and the plan to attack Konoha also ended in failure. Instead, it gave the royal family of the Kingdom of Wind a chance to weaken the Hidden Sand Village... And the royal family of the Kingdom of Wind, in essence, did not want to rely on the hidden villages of other countries, but to weaken the Hidden Sand Village and strengthen the power of its own guardian ninjas. Now it has begun to see results... No, it has achieved great results!

"If there are no external reasons, maybe the Kingdom of Wind can also complete the integration of the Ninja Kingdom within ten years." Guan Liyuan said while walking in the town of the Kingdom of Wind.

For the civilians of the Kingdom of Wind, this is not a bad thing. At least the strength of the royal family's guardian ninjas has been enhanced, and for the people, there are more "voluntary bandit suppression".

Unlike the Fire Kingdom, which is also the top of the five major countries in terms of public security, because the people are rich enough, many times the villagers can raise funds to hire Konoha ninjas to eliminate banditry!

"Huh? Then wouldn't it be better for us to form an alliance with the royal family of the Kingdom of Wind?" Karin couldn't help but say.

"No, the royal family values ​​power and inheritance more than the ninja family. If they are strong enough, they can deprive the family of its internal power and make the family bow down. However, the royal family cannot give up the inheritance of power unless it is dissolved." Guan Liyuan shook his head. The

"one country, two systems" of the overseas branch is still within Guan Liyuan's acceptance range, but if a hereditary speaker of the southwest branch is created, it will be completely untenable...

"What should we do next? Go directly to the Wind City? Or go to the Sand Village first?" Karin asked.

"Let's go see Ye Cang first. We are just here to help. We can't just let us take the lead." Guan Liyuan rolled his eyes.

However, just as Guan Liyuan and others were rushing to the Sand Village, Beiluo's face suddenly changed...

"What's wrong?" Guan Liyuan looked back at Beiluo who had stopped in confusion.

"Ye Cang has just activated the emergency help part of the 'contract' with me." Hiruhu said as he rolled up his sleeves. A curse seal on his arm was now flashing red light and smoking due to the high temperature.

It was the contract that Hiruhu and Hiruhu exchanged when they made a secret alliance. Now it is a signal for emergency help.

"Is it faster than expected? We will speed up as well. Hiruhu and Karin will follow me to the Sand Village. Kakuzu, Sora, and Sasuke, the three of you will rush to the Wind City immediately. After arriving, attack directly. If the Wind King is in the city, kill him directly... Let Chongming take you there!"

Guan Liyuan said as he formed a seal with his hands and summoned the Seven-tailed Chongming.

As a flying tailed beast, Chongming has the fastest travel speed. Kakuzu and the other two may be able to reach the Wind City earlier than Guan Liyuan arrived at the Sand Village.

At the same time, Guan Liyuan had already told Chongming that his mission was to cause trouble in the city immediately after arriving at the Wind City, creating opportunities for Kakuzu, Taketori Sora, and Sasuke who were attacking the palace, but the first priority was to "protect himself"...

Although Guan Liyuan estimated that there must not be many guardian ninjas left in the Wind City to make Ye Cang so anxious, and Kakuzu's strength was now limited compared to Hashirama and Madara at the end of the battle in the Valley of the End, plus Taketori Sora, who was close to the strength of Pain's Six Paths, and Sasuke, who was comparable to an ordinary Five Kage when the Mangekyō was opened, the probability of being trapped in the Wind City was extremely small, but just in case, in the event of danger, Chongming was their guarantee of retreat!

Guan Liyuan didn't expect that his arrangement for safety would actually come in handy later...

And an hour later, when Guan Liyuan rushed to the outside of the Sand Village, it was already dark, and he found from a distance that there were no less than a hundred ninjas guarding the only entrance and exit "One Line of Sky"!

"This doesn't seem like a normal defense. It seems like something has really happened inside, but... the outcome should not have been decided yet!" Guan Liyuan judged.

If Ye Cang had already knelt, there would be no need for these people to hold on tightly here. There should still be chaos inside...

But what Guan Liyuan couldn't figure out was, was the gap in strength between the two sides really that big? How could they spare so many people to guard here?

"No! Not only the ninjas from Sand Village and the guardian ninjas from the Wind Country, but also the people from Konoha!" Hiruhu suddenly said.
