Chương 110: The First Generation

After Chikamatsu walked away with heavy steps, Yura and the other four entered the Mizukage's office together.

The old man Bailian watched this scene with a smile. Not long ago, he was evenly matched with Sunagakure, or even slightly weaker. Now, Kirigakure is getting better and better, which makes him feel very fulfilled.

"Old man, this isn't over yet." After entering the house, Yura said, "That Sunagakure brat hasn't explained his purpose yet."

Bai Lian glanced at Jie Luo and said, "I'll leave this to you. Keep an eye on his movements."

Jieluo paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay..."

She was hoping to lead her ninja group to conquer the ninja clan, but it seems that without some setbacks, she shouldn't expect the old man Bailian to use her.

The Hidden Mist Village is now a formidable force, and the new captain of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist needs to build up his reputation and achieve merit for the village.

At this moment, Huan Yue stepped forward and said, "Old man, I've come to you this time to ask you to do some notarization!" Then, she looked at Xue Ji.

Nakamaro was dead, but Yukihime was still alive, and the battle with her haunted him.

"Ice Queen, I've been waiting for this day for so long!"

Jie Luo looked at Huan Yue. If it weren't for this personality, he wouldn't have been so impulsive as to try and take Wu Tong with him. With Huan Yue's mastery of illusion techniques, it would have been easy for him to retreat.

Bai Lian looked at Xue Ji with a smile and said, "Xue Ji, what do you think?"

"No problem, it's good to let everyone witness it," Xue Ji said, without even looking at Huan Yue.

Mito's gaze was strange, then she looked at Yura. Noticing Mito's expression, Yura raised an eyebrow, wondering what she was thinking.

Just as Byakuren was about to say something, Mito approached Yura and asked in a low voice, "Yura, didn't anyone realize that Yukihime is a man?"

Although the voice was low, everyone could hear it.

Bai Lian, Huan Yue, Cai Zang, and Xue Ji, who were present, all stiffened at the same time.

Jie Luo rolled her eyes. Okay, now that the pretense is out, there's no more fun to be had.

With an expression full of disbelief, Huan Yue stiffly turned her head and stared intently at Xue Ji's face.

No way! This face! It looks like a woman's no matter how you look at it!

Saizo seemed to have thought of something, and couldn't help but let the corners of his mouth turn up wildly.

Bai Lian's eyelids twitched as she lowered her head and puffed on her cigarette.

Yukihime's face was dark, and she clenched and unclenched her fists repeatedly.

Bai Lian coughed, looked at Xue Ji, and said, "I'm sorry, Xue Ji, this old man was a bit blind. But it doesn't matter. Your battle with Huan Yue will be held at training ground number seventeen in the village."

Yukihime nodded and said, "I'll leave it all to Lord Mizukage."

Then, Byakuren turned to look at Mito and asked, "So, Mito, when are you planning to start?"

"Let's do it today," Mito said, pointing with her finger.

"I'll choose him as my opponent."

Saizo stared at Mito's fingers, his eyelids twitching, his squinting eyes barely able to hold back.

"Alright, I've prepared the ninja swords for you," Byakuren said.

"Old man, are you admitting I'll lose?" Huan Yue said, dissatisfied.

Looking at Huan Yue, Bai Lian shook her head and said, "Then you should win, Huan Yue. I'm looking forward to the next battle."

.

As Jie Luo watched this scene, he wondered when a worthy opponent would come to challenge him.

However, it's hard to say what will happen to Huan Yue today. Cai Zang is likely to capsize. Jie Luo turned to look at Mito, whose eyes were full of fighting spirit. Clearly, she didn't intend to just have a friendly spar this time.

Bai Lian waved her hand, and above her head, a hidden compartment in the ceiling flipped open, revealing a masked member of the Covert Survival Unit who instantly landed and knelt on one knee in front of her.

The Shadow Guard hadn't even been established yet, and the only direct force under Byakuren's command was Saizo's First Squad.

"Go and inform everyone to head to Training Ground 17 to watch the match."

Battles between Kage-level ninjas are different from those between ordinary Jonin; it's rare for ordinary ninjas to witness such a scene.

"Ha!" The masked ninja stood up and retreated from the office doorway.

Cai Zang watched this scene, gritting his teeth inwardly. He vaguely felt that he was doomed today and would be watched by everyone. He could only try to win.

At this moment, Huan Yue finally recovered from the shock of Xue Ji, looked at Xue Ji, hesitated before looking at Jie Luo, who shrugged and spread her hands.

Bai Lian looked at everyone and said, "You will be the pillars of Kirigakure in the future. I hope that you young people will have more friendly exchanges."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xue Ji and Huan Yue both snorted coldly, staring at each other with sparks flying.

Jie Luo always handles Huan Yue's provocations with a cold shoulder, a subtle but firm approach. He neither loses his temper nor lets Huan Yue have his fill. The more confrontational Huan Yue is, the more excited he becomes, as if he is rewarding him.

Bai Lian rubbed her temples, looking troubled, and said, "Let's get back to the main topic. Recently, due to the rumors between the Senju and Uchiha clans, the entire ninja world is in turmoil. The five great villages are all strengthening their military capabilities, and we in Kirigakure must also speed up our efforts. Yukihime,..."

"Mito, once you've settled your clansmen, begin the mission as soon as possible: conquer the small islands surrounding Asagiri Island and establish a stable outer base for Kirigakure."

"Ha!" Yukihime and Mito nodded.

"Old man, what about me?" Huan Yue asked.

"Don't you have enough to do?" Bai Lian said.

"Can you find time for cultivation? Is that technique finished?"

Huan Yue shut her mouth.

Bai Lian looked at everyone and said, "After some time, you will also take some time to cultivate with me. Whether you can master it or not, it's up to you to do your best."

Upon hearing this, Cai Cang's eyes lit up.

Is there such a good thing?

"Ha!" the four responded.

Bai Lian smoked a cigarette, then got up and looked out at the vast white fog outside the window.

"I might not be able to hold out until the First Shinobi World War," Byakuren said.

"The future of Kirigakure is entrusted to you all. I only hope that Kirigakure can stand firm against the storms of the future and always forge ahead bravely..."

"Old man..." Jie Luo said with a light smile, "Don't make it sound like you're giving your last words."

"People get sentimental when they get old." Byakuren smiled and turned back to say, "Let's not talk about that. Let's talk about Sunagakure from earlier."

"The First Kazekage, Retsuto, was in his prime. Although his information was unclear, he dared to face the God of the Shinobi World head-on, so he must have some real skills."

"Rumor has it that he possesses overwhelming ninjutsu power."

In the past, Bai Lian might have wanted to give way to this young junior.

But now, Bai Lian glanced at Jie Luo.

"Have you gathered any intelligence on him?"

Huan Yue shook her head.

After the establishment of the ninja village era, information about the village kage was basically kept top secret.

"The Land of Wind is a resource-poor place, mostly desert. It is often plagued by civil wars for resources, and wars are constantly fought between various clans. The complexity of the situation and the intensity of the struggles are greater than in other parts of the ninja world. Retsu used overwhelming power to unify this era of warlordism and established the Sand Village of the Land of Wind with his formidable strength. The number of Kage-level ninjas who died at his hands is probably quite large."

"It's all hearsay..." Byakuren said with a serious expression, "After the Five Kage Summit, Retsuto secretly managed to seize a rich piece of land from Hashirama Senju."

Jieluo's eyes flashed, vaguely recalling that this matter was mentioned in the secret story of Gaara.

"Old man, you mean, Retsuto fought Hashirama Senju?"

"Probably." Bai Lian nodded cautiously.

interesting.

At this moment, Yura began to pay attention to the First Kazekage, whom she had always overlooked.

But that's what makes it like the original.

According to Chiyo, all the Kazekage in the past died violent deaths, so which ninja had the ability to assassinate the First Kazekage?

Bai Lian concluded, "Lie Dou is very strong, extremely strong. He will be a formidable opponent in the First Shinobi World War. As a contractor of Ryuchi Cave, his trump card is probably the Sage Techniques of the Three Great Holy Lands."

There are many more contractors among the snakes in Ryuchi Cave.
