—In fact, most of the information had already been leaked by someone, and Lu Ji had also deduced this result.

With a clang, sparks flew as the kunai clashed with the blade on another battlefield.

next second.

puff-

Before Shirahoshi's eyes, the Kirigakure Chunin in front of her abandoned her weapon and endured the kunai attack that pierced her flesh: the Kirigakure Chunin used her last strength to embrace Shirahoshi.

"Now! Let's perish together with this Jonin!!"

"I understand. Song-kun!!"

A tear fell from the Hidden Mist female chunin's eye as her hands rapidly formed hand seals: seven rather complex seals, which, upon closer inspection by Shirahoshi, were deduced to be the Water Prison Technique.

"Water Release: Water Prison Technique!" the female Chunin roared, slamming her hands onto the surface of the sea.

The water-style chakra reflected a wave of energy on the sea surface, moving straight forward.

Upon arriving at the location beneath the feet of Shirahoshi and the Kirigakure ninja who had gone to their deaths,

--puff! !

The water-style power mixed with seawater surged over the heads of Shirahoshi and the Kirigakure chunin in front of him.

If Shirahoshi's Op-Op Fruit had a weakness to seawater, he would be dead right now.

Of course, this is also why he dared to take such a move, as he wasn't worried about the weaknesses of seawater.

"Interesting." Seeing this scene, Shirahoshi felt as if she were Obito Uchiha: "What, are you about to spit out cement?"

He asked curiously, and the Chunin from Kirigakure in front of him released his grip.

The boy gave a cold laugh, his lingering gaze sweeping over one of his fallen comrades on the sea surface, and the female Chunin who was using Water Release to continuously control the water prison ahead:

"I won't let you die so easily!"

"Come to hell with me!!"

"Psychic art!!"

"This time, everyone can eat to their heart's content."

With a splash, a dozen or twenty small piranhas appeared in the water. When the piranhas saw that the Chunin of Kirigakure had been pierced through a vital spot by a kunai, they silently shed a tear, grinned, and turned their heads to look at them with vicious eyes.

"Huh? I've become the villain now?" Bai Xing scratched her cheek and said calmly, "But a few piranhas probably can't take me down."

These piranhas, being able to act as ninja beasts, can naturally understand Shirahoshi's words.

In an instant, all the piranhas lunged angrily, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of the Kirigakure ninja's lips as he smiled cruelly: "Go. Everyone."

In his mind, the names he had given to each piranha flashed by, which were also the last replays of this Chunin's life.

The female ninja outside was deeply moved, sobbing and crying, "Goodbye, Song-kun."

"ROOM!"

As the sound faded, a pale blue light shield entered the female Chunin's blurred vision: at this moment, the female Chunin was still slapping the water's surface with both hands, continuously channeling Water Release chakra forward.

Before the female Chunin could react, an invisible slash came one after another.

Chapter 70 The Prelude to the Four-Nation War

Meanwhile, the mist concealment technique surrounding outpost number one lost the continuous output of the water-style formation, and the mist was about to dissipate.

In the last sense of the barrier team, they saw two Chunin from Kirigakure working together to kill the Jonin-level ninja who had unexpectedly appeared:

"It's over."

The four Chunin from the Sensory Squad, along with their remaining eleven Kirigakure comrades (originally over fifty), began a series of evacuation operations: some important intelligence could not be burned, and they needed to carry this intelligence with them to safety.

thump--

The female chunin's body was split apart by an invisible blade, but she could still see what was in front of her.

boom!

The water prison in front of them exploded in an instant, turning into a large portion of the blood mist along with the Chunin from Kirigakure, which then scattered across the sky.

Shirahoshi stepped on the water's surface, casually picked up the ninja sword from the hand of the Kirigakure chunin who had been the first to make the boastful remarks, and murmured to himself:

"Increasing the units of speed and force in punching, and reducing the units of air friction, feels no less powerful than the six or seven gates Kai used."

In the numb eyes of the female chunin, all she could see were Shirahoshi's approaching footsteps, trampling over the blood and gore of piranhas and Soo-kun, past Soo-kun's remaining half-body, and arriving before her:

"No, no, don't kill..."

When a person reaches the moment of death, all passion and attachments are left behind, leaving only the desire to live.

Phew! !

The blade fell mercilessly, and Shirahoshi silently watched the female chunin gradually lose her spirit:

"The end of the ninja."

"Perhaps it's just death."

"In the face of death."

"We are all fair."

After destroying the brains of the four people, Shirahoshi also noticed that the fog had dissipated, and immediately realized that the Hidden Mist team had either retreated or been defeated.

"The ninja war ended a little too quickly."

Shirahoshi's departure did not cause much of a stir. Even Uchiha Hagetsu and the others who arrived later did not discover any identifying characteristics of Shirahoshi.

......

On the sea, the operational plan against Kirigakure has been completed.

The overall commander of this battle, Uchiha Hagetsuki, has made a great contribution: he has eliminated one Jonin, several Special Jonin, and dozens of elite Chunin from Kirigakure.

However, the Konoha team also suffered losses, with eight dead, eleven seriously injured, and the remaining ninjas all bearing some wounds.

After checking the No. 1 outpost and finding no useful information, Uchiha Hagetsu remembered another ninja who had infiltrated from the direction of the Land of Whirlpools.

Therefore, Uchiha Hagetsuki, Hyuga Tomoya, and two other ninjas—a total of three Jonin and one Special Jonin—went to inspect the situation at the battlefield.

After examining the corpse, which had not yet completely sunk, Uchiha Hagetsuki was the first to make an analysis:

"This is a Jonin with rich combat experience and skilled in taijutsu. This Hidden Mist assassination squad was completely powerless to fight back within the barrier set up by the Hidden Mist."

Hyuga Tomoya activated his Byakugan, and through the X-ray vision, he saw that the half-crippled Chunin's corpse was almost completely dissolved into blood. His eyes widened in shock.

"What terrifying power!"

"This Chunin's meridians and bones were completely shattered, and his internal organs were turned into blood!"

"What?!" The other two ninjas were utterly astonished. This was a highly experienced fighter, and possessed an attack of this level of power...

"Kage-level?" Uchiha Hazuki took a deep breath. "I didn't expect the ninjas of the Land of Whirlpools to be so well hidden."

"Then, tomorrow's operational coordination should be completed."

Meanwhile, back inside the house, Shirahoshi unfolded a small ROOM space, seamlessly passing through the barrier set up by the Uzumaki clan: anyone passing through could be sensed, but the ROOM space could create absolute interference, mimicking the existence of a mosquito.

Inside a building deep within the Land of Whirlpools, a sensory ninja frowned slightly. "It seems like a creature the size of a mosquito has entered."

The other Uzumaki ninjas, who were taking turns on duty, were playing cards. One of them, a short-haired Uzumaki ninja, played a Jack and then spoke up:

"J."

"I bet those are mosquitoes that came out of there, Shinichi."

"Exactly, it's normal to have some mosquitoes this time of year. K!"

"No."

"Haha! Joker! I have two cards left!"

After hearing this, Shinichi Uzumaki closed his eyes and said, "But I seem to remember that the village filled the area around the barrier with insect repellent in order to prepare for the battle against the Hidden Mist ninja..."

"Maybe the insects are just more resistant. This isn't the first time something like this has happened."

"Five to five, I won. Pay up, pay up."

"Damn, we lost again."

"He Xiao is having a lucky day."

The two took out their money, and Uzumaki Kazutaka, with his hands on the cushion, looked at Uzumaki Shinichi, who was sensing with his eyes closed, and continued:

"Moreover."

“Our Uzumaki clan’s barrier can analyze the intensity of an intruder’s chakra.”

"If the opponent is a ninja from Kirigakure, even if they use a transformation jutsu."

"We can also determine the opponent's chakra level in an instant."

"Not to mention, what you're perceiving now is just a small, weak creature the size of a mosquito."

“That’s true.” Shinichi nodded, not paying any more attention to it.

Shirahoshi, who had successfully infiltrated and bypassed layers of barriers, returned to the mansion, replaced his shadow clone in the bathroom, and went back to bed, wiped away a cold sweat: "The Uzumaki Ninja's barriers are really tight! Even tighter than Konoha's!"

If he weren't able to leave tomorrow, he wouldn't have gone out in the middle of the night to check on the sailing situation for tomorrow.

#

The next morning, through the combined efforts of more than a dozen Uzumaki ninjas, the enormous sailing ship, capable of holding tens of thousands of people, was slammed onto the sea.

The moment the white smoke dissipated, what came into view was a colossal sailing ship named 'Noah's Ark Whirlpool,' built with the full power of the Whirlpool Kingdom.

The ship is 470 meters long and 120 meters wide, so it is clear that the number of decks on a sailboat is not as simple as one or two: there are a total of eight internal decks that can accommodate people.

The luggage mainly consists of valuable items; furniture and the like are definitely not allowed.

Many citizens of the Land of Whirlpools, far exceeding 100,000 people, wish to leave by boat, but they can only do so when the boat is full and replacements are made.

—Tap tap tap!

"Please take your place in an orderly fashion, don't panic!" A ninja from the Uzumaki clan shouted into a megaphone to the crowd. Seeing someone trying to cut in line, he immediately pointed at the person and yelled, "Hey you! If you're going to cut in line, go to the very back!!"

Immediately, the middle-aged man shouldered his bag and obediently returned to his original position in the line.
