Konoha: I, Uchiha, just want to die.

Chapter 314: Spear of Death, Enemies from the Mist

In the dilapidated underground chapel,
Feiduan listened to Lao Zi's mumbling with a slightly restrained expression in his eyes. When the other party turned his head and said that he wanted to kill Uchiha Ci, a strong murderous intent suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Two days ago, he should have been under the protection of Mei Terumi, who called him "imprisonment" but was actually protecting him.

However, after the second assassination attempt failed, the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning became furious and ordered a large number of Kumogakure ninjas to go out, including the young man Ai, the son of the Third Raikage.

Members of the Undead Evil Cult died one after another in front of Hidan. Seeing that almost everyone was arrested and about to be sent to the execution ground, he had no choice but to seek help from all parties with the help of several senior soup ninjas, including Konoha, Kirigakure, Sand Village, and Iwagakure.

His request for help from Sunagakure exposed his own information to Sasori's vision.

The request for help from Konoha fell on deaf ears, and no response was received at all. (Minato did not know Hidan, and was busy contacting the daimyo's son and Kirigakure.)
The letter sent to Kirigakure finally landed in the hands of Mei Terumi.
however,
Before Mei Terumi, another force had contacted Hidan in advance.

It was Iwagakure.

The chips, plans, and future promised by the other party gave Feiduan a glimmer of hope.
A glimmer of hope to save the Kingdom of Tang from war!

It was for this reason that, with the help of Iwagakure, Hidan mysteriously disappeared from the custody of Kirigakure a day ago.

Both sides have their needs.

Iwagakure needs Hidan's power,

As for Hidan, he needs the peace promised by Iwagakure.

He was silent for a moment, clutching the black spear in his hand. Even when he heard that the other party wanted to kill Uchiha Ci as his eldest brother, Feiduan still suppressed the urge to kill the other party immediately, give up the deal and go look for Uchiha Ci.

Although he is still a child, he is no longer just a child.
In addition to his friendship with Uchiha Ci, Hidan at this moment is carrying the future of the entire Land of Hot Springs on his shoulders.

This heavy burden forced him to give up all unrealistic fantasies and accept the current reality.

If it is possible,
Feidan wanted to trust Uchiha Ci unconditionally like he did in the underground of the evil god cult, bet everything on him, and hope that he would bring a better future to the country of soup.
However, the reality that Feidan had to face was——

After the flooding of the capital, Iwagakure and Kirigakure waged a war on this land that was far more severe than ever before, and they had to flee everywhere on their stomachs like dogs.

But Uchiha Ci, who had made a promise, ran away without looking back.

No more news or responses.
now,

Even though he heard the real Uchiha Ci coming to the Land of Lightning and declaring to assassinate the Daimyo, Feiduan had no way out and could only close his eyes in grief.

Uchiha, it's too late for you to come!
With this thought, Feiduan raised his head, trying to suppress his murderous and violent expression, and spoke in a dull voice:

"Don't forget what you promised me!"

Hearing this, Lao Zi turned his head slightly and revealed a dark and sinister smile.

"Of course!"

"The Kingdom of Hot Springs will find peace because of this, and the sacrifices of all the Undead Evils will be meaningful. And the Kirigakure and Kumogakure who have committed atrocities against you will pay a heavy price!"

"After all, you are our secret weapon—"

"It was given to the Third Raikage Ai, to pierce the strongest shield that made him so proud all his life."

Lao Zi stared at Feidan intently, unable to sleep due to the grief of Huang Tu's death in front of him, and a hint of madness appeared in his bloodshot eyes.
"The Spear of Death!"

the other side,
After sealing the horns of the Eight-Tails in the seal scroll provided by Orochimaru and obtaining the drifting route map of Kame Island,
A lot of supplies stored by Orochimaru were found in the storage room of the laboratory, including clothes, ninja tools, food, military pills, etc.
Uchiha Ci, who finally had a full meal, dressed himself up.
After trimming her messy long hair that was almost waist-length, until it was just shoulder-length and would not affect her fighting,

He wore a black short-sleeved shirt with a grey lining and a stand-up collar, a purple rope tied around his waist, the same style as Orochimaru's, loose bloomers and leggings, and black ninja boots.
The only drawback was that there was no Uchiha clan emblem on the clothes, which was not eye-catching enough. Walking out of the secret laboratory, Uchiha Ci, who had changed his look, put on a black robe and a hat, walked through the residential area of ​​Yunming City, and was about to go to Turtle Island.

After Kame Island was taken away by Orochimaru,
Currently drifting on the sea along an unknown route.

Yunming City is located inland, and is still some distance from the seaside. If you want to reach Turtle Island, you must first go to the seaside.

Going to the beach is easy. With Uchiha Ci's speed, it will take less than two hours to get there.

However, it is hard to say about crossing the sea.
First of all, it is not realistic to cross the boundless sea by walking on water.

If you want to reach Turtle Island floating on the sea, you have to charter a boat.

However, Orochimaru had just taken Kame Island, and the coast of the Land of Lightning was not peaceful. Losing Kame Island was equivalent to losing the perfect Jinchūriki in the future.

Yunyin took this very seriously and had already taken control of all ships on the east coast. They were constantly sending out fleets to search for traces of Turtle Island.
Under such circumstances, it is not easy to get a ship out to sea in the Land of Thunder.

Orochimaru had seized the island by landing on land and controlled the island turtles with a large dose of illusion pills, so he could not give Uchiha Ci any help in landing on the island.
It is also impossible to control the island turtle from thousands of miles away to swim to the shore to pick up Uchiha Ci and bring him to the island.

Uchiha Ci can certainly use the Sharingan to hypnotize and seize the ship and have someone take him to Turtle Island,
However, under the condition that the ship is controlled and inspected, compared with this solution,
Seeking help from Mei Terumi is undoubtedly a better option.

Soon, he returned to the abandoned city wall and ran into Mei Terumi who was looking for him.
"Borrow a boat? You want to go out to sea?"

Mei Terumi looked in amazement at Uchiha Ci, who had just gone out for a stroll and had come back from beating a local tyrant from somewhere, wearing a brand new outfit. Her beautiful eyes lingered on Uchiha Ci's little face for a moment, and then she spoke in amazement,

"There's nothing wrong with the boat,"

"It's just that." Mei Terumi frowned.
"I don't know what happened on the east coast of the Land of Lightning. It has been under strict control by Kumogakure recently. All ships entering and leaving the country must be investigated and questioned."

"If you want to go out to sea, you can only depart from the dock of the Frost Country."

"But." Mei Terumi looked embarrassed.

"But what?" Uchiha Ci raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.

As the heir of the Terumi family, one of the three major Kirigakure families, how could Terumi Mei be troubled by such things?
"Five days later, the other forces from Kirigakure who are coming to participate in the Five-Nation Talks will also arrive from this direction."

Mei Terumi frowned and spoke hesitantly:

"Are you leaving today? Can you wait a day?"

Uchiha Ci thought about it and shook his head.

It takes time to seal the eight-tailed horn and verify some of my conjectures and abilities, plus the time to go back and forth.
In five days, he will come back to give Akatsuki and everyone a clear answer, and kill the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning.

Time is quite tight.

"Okay." Terumi Mei exhaled, looked directly at Uchiha Ci, and said solemnly:

"Then you have to be careful to avoid some people."

"The Kirigakure pursuit force is directly under the command of the Sandaime Mizukage!"

"In addition to Ghost Lantern Full Moon, there are some scary monsters in this team."
