After the Five Kage Conference, the news that Iwagakure Village, Kumogakure Village, and Kirigakure Village joined forces to fight against Konoha quickly spread throughout the ninja world, and Uchiha Madara, who was hiding in the dark, naturally received the news.
At this time, Uchiha Madara had abandoned the stronghold of Yu Ninja Village and was still hiding in the shelter where he originally hid.
After a brief battle with Yusuke, he realized that he was not sure that he could defeat the opponent. If he still used Yu Ninja Village as a base at this time, he would very likely be attacked by Yusuke.
“Master, Konoha will soon have a gambling battle with the other three great ninja villages in the Kingdom of Iron. This is a very good opportunity to sneak attack Konoha and get the Nine-Tails.” Zetsu suggested to Uchiha Madara.
However, Uchiha Madara shook his head and said: “Uchiha Yusuke has the ability of Obito Mangekyō Sharingan, and the current Hokage can also fly the Thunder God Technique. Once Konoha is attacked, the ANBU can use special communication methods at any time Let them return to Konoha at any time.”
Jue asked doubtfully: “Are we just going to let such a good opportunity go and do nothing?”
Uchiha Madara said coldly: “The three major ninja villages will bet against Konoha, and the result will definitely end in their disastrous defeat. It will also allow them to truly experience the power of Konoha. I will wait until they experience real fear. It will be much easier if you cooperate with them!”
On the forest path leading to Konoha, there were two figures, one tall and one short, walking slowly.
Strictly speaking, one should be walking and the other is hovering.
These two people were Kabuto, who had returned from practicing senjutsu, and the snake princess Ichikishimahime who had signed an equal psychic contract with him.
However, because Ichikishima Hime also wanted to see the scenery outside Ryuji Cave, Kabuto simply took her with him when he left.
“Kabuto, how long do we have until we reach Konoha? Can’t we just ask that stinky guy to take you back directly?”
While taking out a small ball fan that she didn’t know where she came from and fanning herself, Ichikishimahime kept chattering to Kabuto.
It happened to be noon at this time, which was the time when the sun was the strongest in the day, which made the already hot weather even more unbearable, especially for snakes like Ichikishima Hime who like darkness. .
Kabuto said with an expressionless tone: “How can you bother the teacher with such a trivial matter? And if you feel hot, you can go back to Ryuji Cave first.”
The ‘stinky guy’ in Ikishima-hime’s mouth is naturally Yusuke, who showed off his muscles in Ryuji Cave before. As for the extremely talkative Ichikishima-hime, Kabuto was also a little afraid, so he had to pretend to be indifferent to try to make it easier for him. She talks less.
“I should have known I wouldn’t have chosen her in the first place!” At this moment, Kabuto couldn’t help but secretly regret it.
Kabuto and Ichikishimahime walked for another two hours and finally reached the sphere of influence of Konoha Village. After registering with the guards at the entrance of the village, Kabuto took Ichikishima Hime to the interior of Konoha.
Seeing the people coming and going on the street, Ichikishima Hime also showed a curious expression.
Although she was still walking while levitating, which attracted the attention of many villagers, in a place like the ninja world, walking while levitating was not an unusual thing. For example, Tsuchikage Onoki can also levitate through the “Weighted Rock Technique”.
Izumi, who was shopping at this time, saw Kabuto bringing such a strange little girl, and came over with a curious look on her face.
“Kabuto, have you returned from studying senjutsu? Who is this little girl?”
While Izumi asked Kabuto, she looked at the cute-looking Ichikishima-hime and couldn’t help but reach out to touch Ikishima-hime’s little head.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Ichikishima Hime’s eyes suddenly turned into vertical pupils, scales appeared on her face, and she opened her mouth to reveal snake letters and fangs. She demonstrated towards Izumi with a fierce look, obviously very angry that Izumi wanted to touch her head. dissatisfaction.
Ichikishima Hime is the most important figure in the Holy Land Ryūchi Cave, second only to the White Snake Sennin. How could she be touched on the head like this?
Although Ichikishimahime put on what she thought was the most ferocious posture, she didn’t know that because her appearance was so cute, even if she showed some snake-like characteristics, she was not scary.
Izumi was stunned when she saw Ichikishimahime’s appearance, but she quickly thought of a countermeasure. For Izumi, who often interacts with children in the village, it is too easy to deal with such a little girl.
She took out a bunch of hot three-color meatballs that she had just bought from the paper bag in her hand and handed them over. Izumi said with a smile: “These are Konoha’s specialty three-color meatballs. Try them!”
Ichikijima Hime showed hesitation at first when she saw this, but the sweet smell exuding from the three-color meatballs was still unbearable for her. She quickly took the three-color meatballs from Izumi’s hand with her little hand, and then started eating.
At this time, Izumi smiled proudly and reached out to touch Ichikishimahime’s head.
Ichikishima-hime was about to resist with dissatisfaction, but suddenly Izumi picked up the full paper bag in her hand and shook it, signaling to Ichikishima-hime that she had more three-color meatballs here.
Finally, Ichikishimahime succumbed to the temptation of delicious food and no longer resisted Izumi’s actions.
Kabuto on the side shook his head helplessly. Unexpectedly, when Izumi saw Ichikishima Hime, she would actually leave him alone.
“Izumi, do you know who this little girl is? She is not as simple as you think.”
Kabuto said while looking at Izumi who was still playing with Ichikishimahime.
Although Ikishimahime looks like a cute little girl, as a high-level executive of Ryūchidong, she does not behave so harmlessly. Seeing that Izumi seemed to like her very much, Kabuto felt that he needed to remind her in case something unexpected happened.
When Izumi heard this, she waved her hands and said, “I know, isn’t she the Snake Princess in Ryūchi Cave? I just didn’t expect her appearance to be so cute.”
After Yusuke returned to Konoha from Ryuchi Cave, he told Izumi what he had seen about Ryuchi Cave while chatting with Izumi, so Izumi easily guessed the identity of Ichikishima Hime.
At this point, Quanmei showed a troubled look: “It’s a pity that I don’t have the talent to practice immortal arts. Otherwise, I would have to go to Ryūchi Cave to practice and sign a psychic contract with the lovely Snake Princess. I really envy you!”
At this time, Quanmei thought that her psychic monster was the ferocious God of Death, and she couldn’t help but feel a little bitter.
“By the way, I forgot to talk to you about business. You just happened to be back. I’ll take you to my brother’s place!”
Suddenly Izumi thought about the gambling battle with the three great ninja villages, so she put her hands on the shoulders of Kabuto and Ichikishimahime respectively.
The “Intention Flash” ability of the Mangekyo Sharingan was activated, and Izumi brought this person and snake to Yusuke’s office in an instant.
