The Rise of Onmyoji: The Path of Naruto

Chapter 262 The unknown dark curtain, the blood under the night

"What did you just say?" In a small, airtight room, the sand ninja Maki, half-masked with a turban, looked at the surprised Temari expressionlessly. He didn't speak, but nodded slightly.

Gaara leaned against the wall, his hands folded in front of his chest, his eyes closed tightly, and he said nothing.

"For this Chunin Exam, Master Kazekage sent me and the three of you to Konoha not just to let you pass this exam." Maki's expression looked in Temari's eyes, and suddenly she was very worried. Strange, "The plan is actually to use the Chuunin Exams to destroy Konoha."

"Why, haven't we and Konoha already signed an alliance treaty?" The expression on Kankuro's face was no worse than Temari's, with the same shock.

Markey pondered for a moment: "Actually...the problem lies in the alliance treaty."

"What's going on? Tell me clearly." Gaara's cold voice sounded in the room at an inappropriate time.

Hearing Gaara's cold voice, Kankuro suddenly understood why Gaara was sent to Konoha to participate in the chunin exam, and his throat couldn't help but make a "gud" sound to cover up the shock in his heart.

Maki glanced at Gaara: "Speaking of which, it's not something you genin can know, but given the special situation now, you should have the right to know."

"Our idiot daimyo from the Land of Wind plans to take advantage of the opportunity to form an alliance to force Sunagakure to reduce its armaments. He even does not hesitate to transfer all the tasks between the great powers that should belong to our Sunagakure to Konoha, and even drastically reduces our ninja village. You should have also seen that the number of ninjas in our village is gradually decreasing year after year. Sooner or later, his idiot will make our powerful Sunagakure Village disappear from this continent." It can be seen that Ma Ji is suppressing With the anger in his heart towards the name of the Kingdom of Wind, his eyes were full of anger.

Now that the words were spoken, the three of them understood a lot, but they also became more confused.

"But if this is the case, there is no need for the daimyo to ask the daimyo of the Land of Fire to organize this huge Chuunin examination." Temari was puzzled.Looking at Kankuro and Gaara who were thoughtful next to them, it was obvious that Temari also expressed their confusion and doubts at the same time.

"Due to the situation, we can only work hard to improve the quality of all ninjas in the village, so we can train ninjas like you." Maki glanced at Gaara, and the meaning was self-evident, "Now the Kingdom of Wind is in an extremely In danger, but the daimyo and his bunch of idiots didn't realize that the Kazekage-sama was aware of the crisis of Sunagakure's low combat power, and decided to join forces with Otogakure to destroy Konoha."

"Then, while restoring Sunagakure's prestige, we must also let that idiot daimyo know the importance of national crisis management." With a "boom" punch, Maki hit the wall hard. The white and smooth wall, The dent visible to the naked eye is quite big.

"If this continues, Sunagakure will be completely unable to compete with Konoha. The only choice is now. As for your questions..." Maki said with a dark face, "It's better that you don't know."

"In this case." Temari was silent for a while, then she opened her mouth and said, "There will be another war. If the alliance treaty based on huge sacrifices is violated, more people will die as a result." With a look of worry on her face, she changed What came instead was Gaara's soft hum.The latter walked out of the room lightly, and Markie did not stop him.

"What are you talking about, Temari?" Kankuro asked in a low voice.

Ma Ji said in a deep voice: "This is all what Mr. Kazekage meant."

Kankuro opened his eyes wide and murmured: "It's father..."

Marky lowered his head and glanced at the closed window: "Ninjas are just tools for fighting. And the alliance treaty is nothing more than a broken thing that threatens our survival. This is a Transcendent A-level mission. Before the operation begins, with any

No one is allowed to tell the truth.”

"I'm not worried about your strength among genin students at all, but there is a reason why Konoha's position as the number one ninja village has not declined over the years. Konoha's genin students in this generation have many strong opponents. You should know it. There are even a few who believe that you are extremely afraid of them. Compare them with the genin in our village, and you will find a big problem." What Maki said before leaving was very thought-provoking.

A dark night enveloped the earth, and the bright moon was hidden behind the dark clouds.At night like this, not many people like to step out and take action.

It was the second night after Sandai issued the "curfew order". Suddenly, a swift figure streaked across the darkness.

"Spell, collapse" lowered his voice. As soon as the man in black landed on the ground, a deep voice came from behind the door.

The visitor didn't seem to show any signs of relaxation. He approached the wall and retreated into the darkness, ignoring the owner of the voice.

Unhurriedly, after a while, the words "Spell, Collapse" floated out again in the silent air...

"Particles, practice." After pondering for a long time, the man in black leaning against the wall slowly said four words. Then the door opened at a corner and a figure flashed in.

Markie took off the hood on his head, only to find that the person standing opposite him was an "acquaintance."

After being startled for a moment, Ma Ji revealed half of his face: "I didn't expect it to be you. If I remember correctly, you should be called Yakushi Kabuto."

The night filled his eyes, and the young man took a step forward without hesitation after hearing the visitor's inquiry.

"It's Master Maji"

The two looked at each other and smiled.Kabuto seemed to be more calm at this time...

"I didn't expect you to be Orochimaru's secret agent in Konoha. Even in the Sunagakure Village, I have heard about the Yakushi Ichi." Ma Ji sighed, but he didn't expect Yakushi Kabuto to smile and listen to his emotion. Shake his head slightly.

"You are wrong. I am not that Lord's person." Ma Ji must admit that Yakushi Kabuto's smile at this time was very friendly: "I just came to help Lord Orochimaru and take some things I need. I My current identity is just Kabuto..."

The next moment, the smile on the young man's face disappeared: "Not the Yakushi Ichi. The Yakushi Ichi...now only belongs to Konoha."

Ma Ji understood the somewhat convoluted words of Medicine Master Kabuto, and it took him a long time to look at him again: "How do you want me to believe you?"

A small dark scroll appeared in Yakushi Kabuto's hand, and his palm was spread out in front of Ma Ji: "This is what you need. You can check it, I have not dismantled it."

Ma Ji didn't say anything. He raised his eyes and glanced at this quiet young man, and suddenly sighed: "It would be great if you were a ninja from Sunagakure Village."

"Thank you Maki-sama for your kindness. It would be best for Kabuto to be free."

The information revealed in a simple sentence was enough to make Marky feel at ease. He stared at the former with some deep thoughts for a while. Marky put on his hood again and left the dark cabin...

After carefully surveying the surrounding situation, Marki left in one direction.There was just a hint of cruelty in his eyes, and he glanced at a corner behind him without revealing any trace, and the corners of his mouth curved...

Kabuto Yakushi stood in front of the window, looking through the slits in the window at Ma Ji who had disappeared from his field of vision and another black shadow that was carefully following behind him.He didn't make any move, just stood there quietly.

"The Nirvana Abode Technique will allow you to have a more peaceful sleep." Yakushi Kabuto murmured softly, "Just because of this, is it a bit inappropriate for a Konoha ninja to die?"
