Uchiha's God of Muscle

Obito couldn't help becoming more and more anxious, creating a huge sense of crisis.

Therefore, he ordered Jue to find out the whereabouts of Four-Tails Jinchuriki, and then take the first step to control Lao Zi in his hands.

In order not to be robbed by Uchiha sooner or later.

……

Who is Uchiha's next target?Hidden Rock, Hidden Cloud, or Konoha Native?

This is a question that the entire ninja world is concerned about.

With Shayin's lessons learned from the past, the major ninja villages immediately returned to defending the mainland, hoarding heavy troops, and laying down layers of defense.

Everyone tensed up, waiting for Uchiha's next move.

But unexpectedly, after a period of time, the ninja world was calm and nothing happened.

The reason is actually very simple.

The Uchihas are human too, and they get tired too.

During this period of time, Uchiha first left Paradise Island, rushed to the base camp of the coalition forces, and then marched a long distance to attack Sand Hidden at night.

Thousands of kilometers of running around and continuous high-intensity battles, even though all Uchiha members have been transplanted with interstitial cells, they are still flesh and blood after all, gradually reaching the limit of physical strength.

Moreover, knowing that the major ninja villages have deployed heavy troops, it is obviously a very unwise behavior to forcefully launch an attack while waiting for the Uchiha clan to throw themselves into the trap.

and so.

As the patriarch of Uchiha, Fuyue decided to find a place to take a break temporarily.

In the end, the Uchiha clan returned to the territory of the Kawa no Kuni, and came to a deep mountain forest far away from human habitation, and camped to rest.

Even if the enemy realized Uchiha's intentions and sent troops to encircle and suppress them again, they would not be able to find this place for a while.

After Uchiha recharges his energy and restores his physical strength to its peak state, his next move will inevitably be another thunderous blow to the enemy.

inside the camp.

Swish.

With a whirlpool of fluctuations in the space, Duan, who had been sitting in the Kamui space, finally returned to the ninja world.

"uncle."

Itachi yelled, stepped forward, and reported Uchiha's actions during this time to Duan in detail.

"Ah."

Duan listened, nodding his head from time to time, his expression was always calm.

To Itachi's surprise, after listening to Duan, he suddenly asked:

"You said, you met a caravan claiming to be a wandering people in the territory of Sichuan Kingdom?"

"Uh, yes."

Itachi froze for a moment and replied.He didn't expect that his uncle would be most concerned about this trivial matter.

"What's the name of their leader?" Duan asked again.

"It's an old man named He Yan. He also has a pet ferret. Uncle, do you... know each other?"

After answering truthfully, Itachi asked curiously.

Duan shook his head and said lightly:

"I just heard some legends about the wandering people."

Actually.

Through Itachi's description, he already knew the origin of the caravan.

Hundreds of years ago, in the forest of the Kingdom of Chuan, an ancient empire was born, which was much stronger than the five major countries today.

And the secret of the prosperity of the empire is hidden in a kind of stone called Greer.

The Grell Stone, a crystal-like vein buried deep underground, was accidentally discovered by the founder of the empire.

It is said that its interior contains a huge amount of life energy, which can not only quickly ripen crops and bring a good harvest, but also heal all diseases, make people strong and healthy, live long, and even have the effect of bringing the dead back to life.

Thus, it became the cornerstone of the empire's splendor.

However, everything has advantages and disadvantages.

When people enjoy the various benefits brought by the Gellel Stone, they ignore one point - the powerful energy it contains can also cause huge damage.

Later, due to a wrong use, a disaster of scale space swept the entire empire.

Overnight, the empire was destroyed.

It was like a dream.

As a traveler who is familiar with the plot, Duan naturally knows that the so-called Gehrer's Stone is actually an underground mineral vein formed after absorbing a large amount of natural energy.

It just so happened that he was exploring immortality recently.

If this kind of stone really exists, it should be very helpful to Duan.

Thinking of this, he told his nephew:

"Pay attention. If you encounter that caravan again, or hear their news, remember to let me know as soon as possible."

"Well, I see."

Itachi nodded solemnly.

Although he was curious as to why his uncle was interested in that caravan, he didn't ask any further questions, and just kept Duan's instructions in his heart.

at the same time.

Since separating from the Uchiha clan, the caravan of the wandering people has been safe and sound all the way, and finally arrived at Konoha Village smoothly.

As a result, as soon as he entered the village, He Yan was shocked when he heard the news of the destruction of Shayin Village.

He originally thought that Uchiha was going to flee to the depths of the desert in the Land of Wind to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the Ninja Allied Forces, but he didn't expect that they would directly wipe out Sand Hidden Village.

He was still praying for the Uchiha clan at first, but only now did he realize that those guys are a group of out-and-out killing gods.

After realizing this, He Yan summoned everyone in the caravan again, and privately told them——

Don't tell about the fact that the caravan met the Uchiha clan, or you will get angry.

the following few days.

The caravan took a rest in Konoha, bought a large amount of goods, and prepared to transport them back to the Land of Wind for sale to earn the difference.

At the same time, considering the possible dangers on the road, the caravan spent a lot of money to hire new guards from Konoha.

Everything is ready.

However, despite He Yan's utmost care, trouble still found his way the night before departure.

And it’s *annoying.

bang.

Several ninjas wearing armor and animal masks broke into He Yan's room and surrounded him.

He Yan's complexion changed, and he recognized these people as Konoha Anbe, his heart suddenly fluttered, and he was extremely anxious.

"Come with us."

Anbu spoke in a cold voice, with a strong tone, not allowing He Yan to make any rejection.

"Ok."

He Yan took a deep breath, pretending to respond calmly.

10 minute later.

Under the leadership of Anbu, or under escort, He Yan walked into the Hokage building, came to the Hokage office, and saw an old man on crutches.

"Meet Hokage-sama."

He Yan quickly bowed, not daring to look directly into the other's eyes.

"Be honest, don't wait for me to ask you."

Danzo said lightly, with a majesty in his calm voice.

He Yan was shocked when he heard the words, and slowly raised his head.

After hesitating for less than a second, he broke his promise to the Uchiha clan and told the truth about the caravan's encounter with Uchiha.

For a businessman like He Yan, such things as oaths are toothache curses, and flexibility is his way of life.

Although there was a slight sense of guilt in his heart, He Yan told himself that even if Konoha learned about Uchiha's information, there was a high probability that he would not be able to do anything.

"Oh?"

Faced with He Yan's confession, Danzo seemed a little surprised, but then shook his head, "That's not what I'm talking about."

He Yan was taken aback, and said with a puzzled expression: "Then I don't know what you want to ask."

"Stone of Grell."

After Danzang only said five words, He Yan's expression changed and he took two steps back.

At this time.

A drunk was brought into the office by two Anbu.He Yan recognized the other party as someone from the caravan at a glance, his heart sank immediately, and he finished calling.

Sure enough, an Anbu stared at He Yan, and said:

"This guy drank too much in the izakaya, and told others that he is a remnant of the empire. As long as he finds the Greer Stone left by his ancestors, he can master invincible power and even unify the ninja world."

Another Anbu picked up Kunai and placed it directly on He Yan's neck, a cold light flashed in his eyes:

"Tell Hokage-sama everything about the Grayl Stone. If you don't tell me, we can still torture you and kill everyone in the caravan."

Facing the threat, He Yan showed a helpless smile.

He has no choice.

In order to survive, he can only choose to tell everything, and assure Danzo that the Grayl Stone is real.

Danzo's eyes lit up, and he ordered Anbu on the spot:

"Send someone to go with them to the border of the Kingdom of Sichuan, look for the ruins of the ancient empire, and retrieve the Grayl Stone for the old man!"

220. Steel Fortress

a few days later.

A team entered the territory of the country of Harakawa.

Under the order of Danzo, all the hundreds of people in the caravan were taken as hostages and detained in Konoha.

Only He Yan and a few members of the caravan, under the escort of Anbu's third unit, came to the deep mountains of the country of Chuan, looking for the legendary Stone of Greer.

"How long will it take to arrive?" The captain of the dark department asked He Yan impatiently.

"The ruins of the empire are located in the northwest of the country of Sichuan, and it should be there in a day at most." He Yan replied carefully.

The captain of the dark department heard this and snorted coldly:

"I warn you, it's best not to play tricks."

"Yes, my lord."

He Yan nodded quickly, but it was impossible not to think carefully.

He has long heard that the Fifth Hokage Danzo is a man who can be said to be cruel and unscrupulous, especially regarding human life as nothing.

Not to mention outsiders, even Konoha's ninjas were killed by Danzo himself, no less than thousands of people.

With Danzo's style, after successfully obtaining the Greer Stone, he will definitely order Anbu to silence He Yan and others, leaving no one behind.

Moreover, He Yan was not willing to just hand over the Greer Stone, after all, it was a treasure guarded by the wandering people for generations.

then.

In the evening, when the team camped in the forest.

Taking advantage of the people in Anbu not paying attention, He Yan released the ferret Nilugu in his sleeve.It is the royal pet of the ancient empire. It not only understands human nature, but also has many powerful abilities.
