Hokage: Ryo’s Path - Chapter 68

[Chapter 68 Interception]

Knowing that Sand Shinobi was transporting a puppet, Yamanaka Ryo had a sudden realization. It wasn’t that Sand Shinobi didn’t want to fight, and Sand Shinobu had a problem with Konoha’s biggest weapon, the puppet.

Sand Ninja’s puppet master has always made other villages quite afraid. The puppets manipulated by the puppet master have countless mechanisms and extremely powerful poisons.

Even if Konoha has an excellent medical ninja system, there will still be times when he is powerless in the face of the poison of the puppet master.

“How many puppets are there?” Zilai also asked.

“I don’t know how many have been transported in the front, but there are still about 1,000 in the back.” The ninja of the Hinata clan replied after thinking about it.

“1,000? Sakumo-senpai, let me go! These puppets must be dealt with, if I go…” Jirai also volunteered.

“Uncle Jiraiya, Uncle Sakumo, neither of you can go. If Sand Ren finds that one of you has left the Konoha camp, he will definitely attack. When Sand Ren transports the puppets at this time, he is forcing you to take action. Ryo Yamanaka interrupted Jiraiya’s words.

“Ryo is right, Jiraiya and the two of us really can’t move.” Hatake Sakumo also agreed with Yamanaka Ryo.

“Who are the strong ones in the Sand Ninja team that transports the puppets?” Yamanaka Ryo asked.

“My bug told me that there is only one person to be afraid of. That is to say, there is only one ninja above the elite jounin.”

“He’s right, and I can only see Ye Cang, the Burning Escape, with my eyes.” The ninja of the Hinata clan said.

“Uncle Sakumo, if it’s only Ye Cang, I’ll go!” Yamanaka Ryo said.

“Little devil, are you sure you can deal with Ye Cang’s burning escape? Your ice escape was restrained by her.”

“Don’t worry, Uncle Jiraiya, I am prepared, and now my strength has improved a lot compared to two months ago.”

“Yuan, this matter is left to you. If there is any danger, or if you encounter an ambush, you can give up the mission. How many people do you need?” Hatake Sakumo asked.

“Three ninjas who are proficient in water escape ninjutsu.” Yamanaka Ryo said after thinking about it.

There are not many ninjas who are proficient in water escape in Konoha camp. Most ninjas only know one or two small water escapes, but it is not difficult to find only three masters who are proficient in water escape.

After the three arrived at Hatake Sakumo’s tent, Yamanaka Ryo took the three directly and set off, followed by the bugs of the oil girl clan, and rushed towards the place where the sand ninja transport team was found.

After Yamanaka Ryo’s team set off, Hatake Sakumo ordered the ninjas of the Hinata clan and the oil girl clan to keep an eye on Sand Ninja’s developments.

On the way, Yamanaka Ryo and the three explained the mission and asked the three of them their names. It was learned that the three were Uchiha Kamai, Tanaka Taichi, and Sarutobi Ao.

Among the three, Uchiha Kamai is a female ninja, good at fire escape, water escape, and wind escape. She looks very beautiful in her early 20s. After all, the Uchiha family is not ugly.

Taichi Tanaka has a similar temperament to Jiraiya when he gets drunk at the bar in the original book, like a decadent uncle. Good at water escape, Aiwu and Wushan Zhongyuan also feel good about Tanaka Taichi.

The last Sarutobi Qing is a talker, and this type of person is Ryo Yamanaka is the worst at dealing with, and is good at water escape and fire escape.

Under the leadership of the bug, the three of them saw Sand Ninja’s puppet transport team about an hour ago.

There are not many Sand Ninjas, there are about 50 people, there are two Jōnin in front of and behind the team, and Ye Cang is in the middle of the team.

“Captain, what should we do? The gap between the number of enemies and us is a bit big, and we have no chance at all.” Taichi Tanaka said.

“You are all waiting here, I’ll first deal with the perception ninjas in front of the sand ninja team, then Taichi and Ao, you go around to the back, and contain the two jōnin in the back, the others have my psychic beasts. Flower dance you and I’ll deal with Ye Cang.”

After assigning the task, Yamanaka Ryo first used the transformation technique to become a civilian, and then used the secret technique obtained from the sand ninja spy to hide Chakra.

Yamanaka Ryo pretended to encounter the Sand Ninja transport team by chance. Sand Ninja’s perception ninja did not notice the existence of chakra on Yamanaka Ryo, and regarded Yamanaka Ryo as an ordinary civilian.

Yamanaka Ryo carefully observed the people in the Sand Ninja team and determined that the Sand Ninja Perception Ninja Sand Ninja was at the front of the team and was protected by two Shang Ninjas.

As an ordinary person, Sand Ren naturally wouldn’t take precautions. After they signaled Yamanaka to move away, they moved on.

When the front of the team passed Yamanaka Yuan, Yamanaka Ryo’s ice thunder mode broke out, Lei Shun appeared in front of the perception ninja in an instant, and the Chakra scalpel directly cut off the perception ninja’s throat.

The two Jōnin who were in charge of protecting the sensory ninja just felt a flash in front of them, and when they reacted, the sensory ninja was dead.

“Next is you! [Rachel]!” Yamanaka Ryo didn’t run away immediately after he succeeded, and used [Rachel] to penetrate the heart of Jounin on the left.

Only then did the Sand Ninjas react. In less than 5 seconds, their perception ninjas and a Shang Ninja were killed.

“[Spiritual Art]!” Yamanaka Ryo summoned Toad Hiro.

“Guang, please. These people will be handed over to you!”

“No problem!” Toad Hiro and Yamanaka Ryo have been very good partners who have fought side by side twice.

“He is Yamanaka Yuan! I have seen this toad!”

“It’s really Yamanaka Ryo! This time it’s over!”

There is no sand ninja who does not know Yamanaka Ryo. His performance in the first two wars was too bright, especially the [Colossus of Ice] left a deep impression on these sand ninjas, of course not a good impression.

Just when everyone’s attention was attracted by Yamanaka Ryo and Toad Hiro, Uchiha Hanamai and others also started to do it.

“[Water Escape. The Technique of the Great Waterfall]” Taichi Tanaka’s water escape erupted behind the Sand Ninja team.

“[Burning Escape. Ascension]” In the sand ninja team, a heat wave rose, and Taichi Tanaka’s water escape was instantly evaporated.

“You are Yamanaka Yuan?” Ye Cang asked as he walked out of the team.

“Yes, it’s me!”

“Where did you learn the secret technique of hiding chakra?” Ye Cang’s question made Yamanaka Ryo stunned. According to the script, shouldn’t the two sides talk harshly to each other and then start fighting?

Yamanaka Ryo didn’t answer, and started to do it directly. He took out the tachi from the sealed scroll and used the [Chidori Blade], opened the writing wheel, and Lei Shun appeared in front of Ye Cang.

Yamanaka Yuan wanted to see how helpful Sangouyu was in battle, so he chose Taijutsu.

Ye Cang appeared calm in the face of Yamanaka Ryo’s attack. She could see from Yamanaka Ryo’s actions that Yamanaka Ryo was not good at taijutsu, he was a speedy ninja.

Ye Cang quickly gained the upper hand in the physical competition, but years of experience against the enemy also made her discover the problem. No matter which angle she attacks from, Yamanaka Ryo seems to have predicted her movements in advance and can always avoid it.

After some fights, Ye Cang knew that she could not solve Yamanaka Ryo with physical skills alone.

“[Burning Escape. Ascension]!” The terrifying high temperature burst out from Ye Cang.

“[Ice Armor]!” Just now, Taichi Tanaka’s Great Waterfall Technique was evaporated by Yekura, and the air was filled with a lot of water vapor. Yamanaka Ryo used the water vapor to condense into armor to protect himself.

“The warm-up should be over! Let me see your ice escape next.”

“good!”
