Naruto Reborn: The Rise of the Tsar

Chapter 161
That night, the sound of the watch had already sounded three times, and Kangtai was sleeping soundly.

Suddenly there was a crisp sound of landing, as if something had been knocked over.

The person on the bed stood up suddenly, picked up a long knife in his hand, and looked at the empty bedroom with vigilance.

Is this the first time tonight that you woke up?three times?Or five times?

Although Kangtai has deployed numerous hidden sentries and induction formations around the Chenxi Tower.

As long as the murderer dares to show his face, the hired ninjas ambushing around him will swarm him.

However, I still couldn't sleep peacefully. What happened ten years ago was still vivid in my mind, like a ghost floating in the sky.

Perhaps his nerves were too tight, and after a while, Kangtai fell into a deep sleep.

At this time, a dark figure slowly appeared beside the bed, and the snow-white long knife suddenly stabbed towards the head of the bed.

There was a clicking sound, as if it had hit something hard!
It doesn't feel right!

The assassin's expression changed slightly, but suddenly there was a bright light around him.

The entire bedroom exuded the light of the formation.

As the light turned on, the alarm sounded loudly at the same time.

Kangtai, who was standing beside him with his hands in hand seals, snorted coldly, "You finally showed up. Let's settle it today!"

With a soft cry, the surrounding light came towards the assassin like shining ropes. The assassin held the long knife and exerted force, only to find that the rope was not cut, but stuck to the blade like a tarsal maggot. Come.

Following the crackling noise, violent electric light lit up.

The assassin tilted his body and immediately collapsed.
"I didn't expect it. This Thunder Escape Light Lock contains thunder attribute chakra. Ordinary people will lose the ability to resist as long as they come into contact with it!"

At this moment, Kangtai slowly drew out his long knife and gently opened the opponent's mask, just to see the assassin's true face. Suddenly, the assassin's closed eyes suddenly opened, and the opponent shrank back at a strange angle, and then stretched out his hand toward Hold the extended long blade a little.

A strange rebound force came.

At this moment, Kang Tai felt that the long blade in his hand was shaking uncontrollably, and the next moment, it suddenly flew away from his hand.

Although I don't know how the assassin could move freely under the paralysis of thunder-type chakra, Kouta also reacted very quickly. He completed the seal in an instant, and the huge fireball almost lit up the entire bedroom.

Boom!
The heat wave generated by the explosion spurted out from the gap in the wall.

After the smoke and dust cleared, a large hole had exploded on the west side of Chenxi Tower.

Ninjas from three floors inside and three outside have already surrounded the attic.

However, the assassin has already lost his trace
Early the next morning, the news that the owner of Chenxi Tower was assassinated and nearly died in his own home immediately spread throughout the restaurants and teahouses of the Wind City.

The 'vendetta theory', which had died down before, has once again become popular and spreads with great fanfare.

No matter what the truth was, whether it was the hatred for wealth or the murder of relatives, for a while, the grudges between the Eighth Prince and the assassin became an enduring topic in the streets.

"How is this going?"

Kongoji angrily said that the Eighth Prince had a special status in the Capital of Winds. Originally, when something like this happened, he wanted to minimize the impact as much as possible, but he did not expect that the turmoil intensified. At noon today, the daimyo even asked about the matter again. .However, what troubled Kongji the most was that he seemed to have misjudged the assassin's strength.

The four previous assassinations of the Grand Dukes were more or less due to the leakage of their whereabouts, and the defense was slightly inadequate, and based on the information Pushan obtained from the corpses.

The four dead people all had traces of magic or drugs in their bodies before they were alive, making them unable to resist.

This shows that if the assassin wants to achieve the assassination, he must use some special means to weaken the target's resistance.

But this time, Kongji frowned. He had already arranged for his trustworthy subordinates to ambush nearby. However, not only was he unable to detect the intruder immediately, but he was not even able to keep him behind after the enemy triggered the formation.
If this strength were used by a ninja without his own level of strength, the opponent would be able to kill the target head-on and then leave safely.

But Kangtai is obviously still alive and well. What does the other party want to do?
At this moment, Nishino picked up a piece of bread covered with honey and stuffed it into his mouth. He was also puzzled.

Last night, the news of the assassination of the owner of Chenxi Tower reached Daming Mansion almost immediately.
However, the assassin seemed to have only shown his face in front of the real owner and then disappeared. It was as if he came to the door in person to remind the other party, "Hey! Your security measures are not in place!"

Suddenly, a ninja quickly entered the house, "Sir, 'Kangtai' from Chenxi Tower is here to visit!"

"What?" Kangtai's face was filled with shock.

Didn't the other party refuse to pay back the oil and salt yesterday?Why did you come to your door today?
"Tell him to come in." At this time, the sleepy Fukawa on the side slowly said to the ninja who came to communicate. Seeing Nishino's doubtful eyes, he smiled and said, "Maybe he remembered some key clues and wanted to tell us. .”

Exactly two hours later, Kouta left Nishino's residence.

"Why did he remember so many details?" Nagato, who was listening on the sidelines, asked Fukawa in confusion, "Also, it is said that the ghost from ten years ago killed the person. Isn't this too incredible?"

Because Yuliang was still temporarily living in Chenxi Building due to business reasons, Yahiko and Xiaonan were also arranged by Fukawa to stay with Yuliang. On the one hand, they could fully protect each other, and on the other hand, it was easier to gather some information.

"Do you believe it?" Fukawa smiled slowly and looked at Nishino, who was frowning and thinking.

"I don't believe it, it seems like a vendetta." Nishino shook his head. "But he still insisted that it was only a business conflict. If that's the case, he shouldn't be entangled even if he is fooling around."

Suddenly, Nishino seemed to wake up and suddenly said, "Is it true?"

"What?" Fuchuan still maintained a mysterious smile on his face.

"Could it be that the Eighth Prince made too much ill-gotten wealth and summoned ghosts?"

Fuchuan
Nagato
That afternoon, the other three of the 'Eight Grand Dukes' unexpectedly gathered in Kangtai's 'Chenxi Building'.

Different from the usual caution, this trip, the three businessmen brought nearly a hundred guards, many of whom were jounin-level experts.

After an afternoon of secret talks, in the evening, the four "Eight Grand Dukes" walked out of the city together with their guards.

When they left the city, several ninjas who looked like guardian ninjas also followed them.

At this moment, the gossip in the city spread wildly. In order to avoid assassination, the eight princes planned to go to Sand Hidden Village together to seek the protection of Kazekage.

"This is a good idea," Nishino said with a smile, "The protection of Sand Hidden Village is much higher than that of the Wind Capital, and there are many Sunagakure masters, and Kazekage is in charge, so it is difficult for assassins to carry out assassinations there! "

"I think we should follow." Fuchuan said decisively.
