After coming out of the Hyuga residence, Zhang Miao went directly to the Hokage's office without knocking. He directly pushed the door open and went in.
Looking at Zhang Miao who pushed the door open and entered, Hiruzen suddenly let out a long breath.
"I know you will come, but the matter is over!"
"It's over?" Hearing Hiruzen's words, Zhang Miao can't help but sneer, "It's just your opinion. I just want to ask, where are the people of Kumogakure now?"
"Ryunosuke, don't mess around!"
Looking at Zhang Miao's mocking expression, Hiruzen immediately frowns, "This peace was obtained with great difficulty..."
"Tsk! Incompetent bastards.."
"You..."
"Stop!" Seeing that Hiruzen was about to get angry, Zhang Miao immediately raised his hand without waiting for him to speak.
"Grandpa Third, I'm not here to quarrel with you. I'm only here to fulfill a promise to someone. Forget it, I won't say it anymore. There's no point!"
After saying that, Zhang Miao turned around and left. When he reached the door, Hiruzen's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"No one forced Hizashi. This is his own will. He died to protect the village. Don't let his sacrifice be wasted!"
"Heh... Protecting the village?"
Hearing this, Zhang Miao immediately sneered and turned to look at Hiruzen. "Don't say that to me. You should say that to Neji because the person who died was his father!"
After that, Zhang Miao walked out without looking back.
Seeing this scene, Hiruzen suddenly frowned. Then he picked up his pipe and took a puff. As he breathed out the smoke, his eyes also narrowed.
"In order to fulfill a promise..."
Zhang Miao naturally did not know what Hiruzen was thinking. After coming out of the Hokage's office, he immediately split himself into more than a dozen clones and ran toward the eastern part of Konoha.
The land of Lightning was located in the northeast of Konoha. The Land of Iron and other small countries were separating them in the middle. If he wanted to take the land route, he would have to take a lot of detours. However, taking the water route was different. As long as he took a boat from the coast, he would be able to go north to the Kumogakure.
Zhang Miao speculated that the Kumo ninjas should have chosen the water route, so he simply chased in the direction of the coast. However, when he reached the edge of the forest, he was stopped by a dozen people wearing Anbu clothes and animal masks.
Seeing the dozen Anbu blocking his way, Zhang Miao narrowed his eyes.
"Anbu? Did the Third Hokage send you? Do you really think you can stop me with your powers?"
Hearing his words, a few of the Anbu did not answer but surrounded him from all directions.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Miao immediately nodded.
"I understand. Your mission should be to stall for time. Then it means that the bastards of Kumogakure should be walking in this direction. Thank you!"
After that, Zhang Miao turned into a cloud of white smoke and disappeared. Looking at the figure that suddenly disappeared in front of him, the Anbu leader with a cat mask frowned.
"It's a shadow clone! Quick, send the signal!"
"Yes!"
Hearing his words, the other Anbu immediately took out a bamboo tube with a tail wire and pulled it towards the sky.
"Chirp... Bwoosh!"
With a crisp sound, a ball of red smoke instantly exploded in the sky. Obviously, this was to inform the other companions that their interception had failed..
Zhang Miao also saw this ball of red smoke, and a sneer flashed across his face. "Hmph, If you want to use this method to stop me, you really underestimated my power. The Sixth Gate of View - open!"
With a loud shout,
The chakra in Zhang Miao's body instantly erupted and soared into the sky, revealing a visible green color.
"That's enough. I want to see who can catch up with me! Heaah!"
Zhang Miao shouted, and his body rushed forward instantly, causing the wind to shake the surrounding trees.
To open Sixth Gate of the Eight Inner Gates just to chase people, such a luxury was probably something only Zhang Miao could do, but he did not care.
"It's nothing more than three thousand Ninja Fragments. As long as I get Hizashi's body back, it will be all worth it!"
With this thought in mind, Zhang Miao increased his speed and finally saw a group of people from Kumogakure at the edge of the Land of Fire's forest.
After discovering the target, Zhang Miao did not say much and directly rushed to the front to block their way. Then he reached out to Karai, who was in the lead.
"Give him back!"
"Uh..." Looking at Zhang Miao who suddenly appeared, Karai hurriedly took a step back and then revealed a forced smile. "What do you want, Ryunosuke-sama? I don't quite understand what you mean."
Of course, Zhang Miao knew that he was quibbling, but he did not point it out. Instead, he said expressionlessly, "I want Hizashi's corpse scroll. Hand it over!"
"How can we bring that kind of thing... Hmm? Hizashi?"
Karai was first stunned. But he soon reacted and then smiled at Zhang Miao again.
"Haha... Ryunosuke-sama, you might have made a mistake. The murderer of our comrade is Hiashi. His body has been sent back to Kumogakure through the Land of Iron, so..."
"I don't want to talk nonsense with you!"
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Zhang Miao waved his hand and interrupted him.
"I will give you two choices. First, hand over the scroll that sealed Hizashi's body. Or I will kill you all here. Now tell me, what is your answer?"
"That..."
Hearing Zhang Miao's words, the Kumo ninjas were all stunned. Seeing that none of them spoke, after about a few seconds, Zhang Miao nodded.
"Can't you make a choice with your ability? Well, I'll choose for you. The answer is the second!"
With a low shout from Zhang Miao, his eyes immediately turned into a 3-tomoe Sharingan. Seeing this scene, Karai immediately shouted.
"It's the Sharingan, don't look at his eyes..."
As soon as he shouted, Karai discovered that the surrounding scenery had changed. The lush forest had disappeared and was replaced by a blood-red space filled with huge stakes.
His body was also pierced by five huge nails. While enduring the intense pain coming from his body, he looked at Zhang Miao who was slowly walking towards him with a frightening face/.
"I didn't expect you to have the Sharingan. Are you an Uchiha?"
"It doesn't matter which clan I belong to!" Facing Karai's question, Zhang Miao still responded to him with the same expressionless face.
"What I want is only Hizashi's corpse scroll. Let me ask you again, are you going to give me the scroll or not?"
"About that..." Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Karai immediately gritted his teeth and nodded hard. "I will hand it over!"
