Chapter 113 Takigakure Village
Shibuki's original plan was to ask for help from Konoha and hire Konoha ninjas to help him solve the rebellion in the village. For this purpose, he prepared a lot of excuses. He had repeated in his mind several times what about the traditional friendship between the two countries and what about the loss of one's teeth and the loss of another.
As a result, I suddenly realized this morning, why should I go far away? This person in front of me seems to be able to help me solve the problem! Shibuki is timid, but as the heir of a ninja village, he has been trained since childhood and has a good vision. When he saw Ino using the "Water Array Wall" and "Water Dragon Bullet", he was so relaxed and comfortable, and he could see that this female ninja was much stronger than expected.
This is why the decision was made to change the mission.
Ino was silent for a moment. She didn't know Tsunade's character. Many of this elder sister's behaviors seemed to be very ridiculous. What if this involved some iron rules of ninjas when performing missions? She was not prepared to take risks on this matter, so she refused directly.
"Well, Lady Tsunade asked me to escort you to the village. She must have some considerations for her. Let's speed up and talk about the rest later."
After two days of rapid march, she killed all the enemies on the road and successfully brought Shibuki to Konoha Village.
The Third Hokage asked Shibuki a few questions, and then asked Ino: "Shibuki is going to entrust you to escort him back to Takigakure Village again. Asuma is taking Shikamaru and Choji to carry out the mission of eliminating bandits. I will let Hong and you form a temporary team, and you two will go together to solve the rebellion in Takigakure Village."
Kakashi's resume is barely enough to be a Hokage, and Hong, who just got promoted to a jonin, wants to be a consultant, so his qualifications are even weaker.
The Third Hokage racked his brains to find a task for her to complete, and Takigakure Village seemed to him to be just the right place.
Others may not know, but he knows that Ino is now much stronger than the average Genin. With the combination of ninjutsu and illusion, the Takigakure Village cannot stop them at all.
This was an officially assigned mission, and Ino had no reason to refuse. The mission involved the Jounin of Takigakure Village, so it was classified as A-level.
Not long after, Kurenai Yuhi, who was full of enthusiasm for work, came to reunite with Ino, and together with her employer Shibuki, the three of them left Konoha Village again.
Yuhi Kurenai felt that there were some things she had to clarify, so she asked Shibuki, "There should be a jonin in Takigakure who is loyal to your father, right?"
Shibuki pursed his lips, as if he didn't know how to say this.
Ino asked, "Rebellion?"
".Those who were loyal to my father did not rebel."
Ino thought she had found the answer: "Oh, so those who were not loyal to your father betrayed, and then the jonin who were loyal to your father died in the battle?"
Shibuki had a sad face and struggled for a long time before answering: "They have other tasks, which are more important than my life."
What exactly is the mission? Ino had never paid much attention to Takigakure Village. Combining the information in the comics and some information about the Yamanaka family, she suddenly understood! It should be a matter of Jinchūriki. Takigakure Village is the only village outside the five major ninja villages that has a tailed beast.
How many tails does Takigakure have? I vaguely remember it was a big beetle? Ino didn't have a deep impression of this tailed beast. If I guessed correctly, it should be a very weak one.
Rumor has it that when the Six Paths Sage separated the Ten Tails, Kurama was crying his eyes out, but the rest of the tailed beasts were indifferent. The giant beetle and the giant turtle had already gone off to play somewhere else. The Six Paths Sage said that they would be divided equally, but in fact he just gave a little more of the Ten Tails' chakra to the Nine-Tails.
Although the tailed beasts of Takigakure Village are not strong and the Jinchūriki is also weak, it is still a powerful weapon. When the village is in chaos, it seems reasonable to take it to another place to hide and find two jonin to guard it.
They killed three waves of enemies on the way and rested for a night. Hong praised Ino's ghost castle highly. She could be invisible, eat in it, and most importantly, she could take a bath. This summoned beast was really amazing!
On the evening of the third day after leaving Konoha, the temporary team finally brought Shibuki to a waterfall that was not marked on the map.
According to legend, Takigakure Village is hidden behind a waterfall, a paradise far away from the war.
At this point, the first stage of the mission has been completed. Through observations along the way, Shibuki feels that the female ninjas of Konoha look down on the treasures of their village.
He decided to tell the truth: "There is a treasure called Hero's Water in Takigakure Village."
After saying that, he glanced at Ino and Hong's expressions.
Neither of them had any special reaction.
Ino knew about this thing and nodded: "Yes, I have heard of it. I heard that drinking the hero's water can increase chakra tenfold, but the price is that after the battle, the life span will be greatly reduced, and in serious cases, it may even lead to direct death."
This so-called tenfold improvement, in her opinion, has its limits.
It is said that Choji's red pepper pill can increase chakra by a hundred times. He was indeed invincible when fighting Jirobo. But three years later, Choji can achieve similar effects without using this pepper pill, which shows that there is a ceiling for this improvement.
The Akimichi family's chili pills have no support from the family's secret technique, so the patient will die before the chakra is increased a hundredfold. The Hero's Water from the Takigakure Village is slightly less expensive, but it will shorten the patient's lifespan, which is also very serious.
Ino was not that depressed. She had more than enough chakra and had no interest in the water.
She answered frankly, without showing any covetousness.
Shimu breathed a sigh of relief, his bet was right!
He put his hands together and begged again: "If I'm not mistaken, it should be the village's Jonin Shisha who covets the Hero's Water. He wants to capture me and force me to tell him the location of the Hero's Water. I want to ask you to help me defeat Shisha."
Speaking of the village, Shibuki seemed to be a little braver. He told Shisha's information, including what ninjutsu she knew, her fighting style, and her battle records.
Speaking of which, Shiyan is his teacher. His father tried to use the master-disciple bond to restrain the ambitious Shiyan, but unfortunately, not everyone cares about the bond.
As soon as Shibuki's father died, the jonin rebelled.
Hong asked Shibuki to hide, and she used transformation to change into his appearance and go in to destroy the enemy, but Shibuki refused. At this time, he couldn't hide far away no matter what.
"That's fine too, just don't go too far away from us."
The two of them gave each other instructions, then followed Shibuki into the waterfall, found a secret cave entrance under the water, swam for more than a hundred meters, crossed two waterways in succession, and emerged from the bottom of the water. In front of them was a village located under a huge tree, Takigakure Village.
Ino carefully looked at the thing that seemed to be a giant tree, but was actually more like the stump of a tree. She activated her perception ability to detect that the vitality of the tree had completely disappeared and it was a dead object. However, perhaps because it was close to the Takigakure Waterfall, some strange chakra still remained in the roots.
It is because of the existence of these chakras that Takigakure Village produced something called Hero's Water.
Ino was a little confused. Could this thing be the sacred tree? Or is it the remaining roots of the sacred tree?! (End of this chapter)
