The Land of Rain is located between the Three Great Shinobi Countries and its strategic location is extremely important. Therefore, once a war breaks out, it will attract all the attention of the Three Great Shinobi Countries. Because of that, the Land of Birds, which is adjacent to the Land of Rain and sandwiched between Land of Wind and Land of Earth, is like a bird on the brink of war. It was obviously close at hand, yet it can fly around freely.
However, although the Land of Birds is far away from the war, there is no Shinobi Village in the country, so they rely on the Land of Wind for so many things, which makes the economic exchanges between the two countries very close. The most significant thing is that there are many villages and towns near the border between the two countries.
On this day, the Daimyo of Land of Birds received information that a powerful puppet master had come to the border between the two countries. They destroyed the villages everywhere, from the border of the Land of Wind, he has been destroyed all the way to the Land of Birds. They passed the village like a locust crossing the border, not to mention money, even chickens and dogs are not remained!
'So ruthless!'
The Daimyo was both frightened and angry, and immediately issued a mission order to the Great Countries, requesting to solve this puppet master.
Unfortunately, at this time, Iwagakure and Sugakaure are still at war, while Konoha is recuperating and is in the period of Yondaime Hokage's election. Seeing that there are no Shinobi coming, but Land of Birds' Daimyo had no choice but to post the mission order on the black market.
Within a few days, a large number of rogue Shinobi flowed into the capital of the Land of Birds, a city beside a lake where migratory birds inhabit.
Among them, there is Tenkū, who has changed his face with Transformation Technique.
Tenkū has been tracking Sasori for a while now, but every time he rushed over after receiving information about the village, he is a step slower.
So when Land of Birds' Daimyo issued a mission to take care of Sasori in the black market, Tenkū took it and planned to use Land of Birds and rogue Shinobi's powers to find Sasori!
When the mission was posted, there happened to be a group of rogue Shinobi who had withdrawn from Land of Rain. In order to make money, the group set off for the capital of the Land of Birds together.
In the evening, the group of people had arrived on the hillside ten miles outside the capital of the Land of Birds.
"This country is really beautiful."
The leader of this group of rogue Shinobi, Moso, looked greedily at the scenery along the way, and when he arrived at the capital, he even couldn't stop staring at the lake next to the capital.
This group of rogue Shinobi suffered from the war in the Land of Rain. At this time, when they see this beautiful lake, how can they keep their eyes to themselves?
In fact, even Tenkū can't move his eyes away from it.
This lake is a habitat for the migratory birds. The surface of the lake is as clear as a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds. The migratory birds fly down to fish, splashing faint ripples, like the slow rippling of time.
There is no pollution, no trash, no gray, no black, just dreamy blue.
Tenkū looked up again and saw that the sky was high and the lake was wide, the peaks were verdant and were covered with the white mist, looking so beautiful!
"It's really beautiful."
Tenkū wanted to call the main body to live together and stay together until the old age. He even thought about the name of his future child, he'll call him Gekko Moria!
"If a Shinobi Village can be established in this country…" Moso narrowed his eyes, full of excitement.
"You'd better stop dreaming."
Hearing this, Tenkū glanced at him from the side, and said unceremoniously, "This country is sandwiched between the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth. The first reason why it can stay away from the war is because the strategic location of the Land of Rain is more important than here, and the other one is that there is no Shinobi Village in this country."
Moso's face darkened when he heard this: "Of course I know that!"
This is the case with the small country living in the cracks. Even the establishment of Shinobi Village will be hindered by the Great Countries.
If you open the map of the Shinobi World, you will find that the border of the Land of Rain connects to six countries. In addition to the Three Great Shinobi Countries, there are also Land of Birds (connecting the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth), the Land of Rivers (connecting the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire), and the Land of Grass (connecting the Land of Fire and the Land of Earth). Among these three small countries, only the Land of Grass has Shinobi Village, and the consequence or prerequisite for the survival of Kusagakure is that the political corruption in the Land of Grass and the alliance with Konoha.
So, if Moso builds Shinobi Village here, the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth will be the first one to disagree!
Although he knew this, Moso still felt very uncomfortable when he was pointed out by Tenkū. He silently winked at the subordinate next to him.
The subordinate was very clever, and he immediately jumped out to point at Tenkū and said: "Bastard, how dare you look down on our boss's wisdom? Quickly kneel down and apologize, otherwise…"
Boom!
Tenkū didn't say anything, and after using Hardening Technique on his whole body, he punched this guy directly. In an instant, the flesh and bone chips scattered everywhere.
Since he has killed one of them, Tenkū naturally couldn't allow Moso and the others to leave alive, so as not to leave hidden dangers.
With the help of Extraordinary Strength and Explosion Release, Tenkū immediately take care of everyone!
In less than a minute, everyone was killed by Tenkū.
"I'm so ruthless."
Tenkū sighed silently, and then formed hand seals and used Ninjutsu, "Suiton: Suijinheki!" (Water Release: Water Formation Wall)
Tenkū opened his mouth and a large stream of water spurted out from his mouth. It diluted the blood on the grass like a water pressure gun, and then he used Earth Release to bury the broken bodies in the ground.
After finishing the work, Tenkū stopped dawdling and quickly entered the Land of Birds' capital.
Because of the mission entrusted by the Daimyo, many rogue Shinobi with rough looks and fierce eyes gathered in the Land of Birds at this time.
Tenkū is mixed among, so he was inevitably infected by them, showing a majestic expression from time to time.
The next day, the Land of Birds' Daimyo gathered these rogue Shinobi to inform them of the information and more details of the villages' massacres, and assigned them to the Land of Birds' border to guard the various villages and towns.
Land of Birds' Daimyo is easy to talk to. As long as the rogue Shinobi can kill that ruthless Shinobi, he will pay a large commission, and everyone will have a share!
After completing the commissioned contract, the rogue Shinobi immediately headed to the border majestically and grandiosely, and then scattered.
Tenkū was arranged in a small village with no known name. He thought he would stay for many days, but he did not expect to stay quietly for a day, there would be information on the next day, so Tenkū and the other rogue Shinobi here set off immediately.
After Sasori wiped out a small village once again, he found that the situation was not right. He seemed to be caught in some kind of fishing net. No matter where he went, there were insects following him, which troubled him a lot.
But he quickly found a solution: that is to kill all the insects.
Sasori found a depression with cliff walls on its three side. After entering, he controlled Hiruko to hide in the deepest part of the depression. Puppet Wild Fox also sat on the ground, watching the entrance quietly. As time passed, a Rogue Shinobi wandered outside the entrance. Sasori was not in a hurry. He hid in Hiruko to conserve his strength and recharge his energy. As the number of insects increased, Sasori's eyes gradually glowed.
'Although they are all small insects, if I kill all of them, I can get a lot of puppet materials, and there also seems to be a more powerful insect mixed in.'
Sasori smiled as he thought of this.
And the stronger insect also smiled.
'I finally found you, Sasori of the Red Sand!'
