These four unknown ninjas were naturally not wandering ninjas. They had accepted a mission from the village and were specially here to carry out the mission.
Of course, it was impossible for the four of them to come here to capture the tailed beast. That would be overestimating them. Although the Seven-tailed Halcyon was not as famous as the Nine-tailed Fox, it was still a tailed beast. It would be a joke if the four of them wanted to capture it.
The four of them were supposed to be the vanguard. They were supposed to delay the small hidden village, Hidden Dragon Village, or 'finish' the people they sent over, so that they could seize the initiative.
Once this goal was achieved, the faction behind them would send experts to lead a large force to capture Nanao Heimei.
However, from the looks of it, there were some errors in the information. The Hidden Wood Leaf Village had appeared in the mission that only involved Hidden Long Village. This was a little difficult to handle. However, he could not just announce that the mission had failed. He had to go to the Bug King Valley to take a look.
Putting aside what these Wandering Ninjas wanted to do, at this moment, Skylark was following Yuan Fei and Sun Slash as they rushed towards the Bug King Valley without stopping.
"Do you need to rest for a while to replenish your strength?”Yuan Fei Sun Slash's figure very abruptly appeared on the branch of a tree in the dense forest and opened his mouth to speak softly.
In the next second, Skylark's figure also appeared on the branch of the tree. Skylark reached out and took a kettle from her waist. After taking a sip, she smiled and said," There's no need. In terms of strength, I can't compare to you, Brother Ri Zhan. However, in terms of physical strength, I've never been afraid of anyone…"
"It's Uncle Ri Zhan!" Yuan Fei Sun Slash opened his mouth and said rather angrily. Following that, he paused for a moment before continuing,"In that case, I will no longer take care of you. Prepare to speed up. The earlier you arrive, the earlier you can begin the investigation…"
The moment his voice fell, the Skylark nodded as well and put away his water bottle. Immediately after, the figure of the Flying Ape Sun Slash also disappeared from this tree trunk at an extremely fast speed.
The corners of Skylark's mouth curled up slightly. With a force under her feet, she also left this place.
"Sun Slash, I heard that this Seven Tailed Halcyon is a tail beast that looks like a big bug. It's very powerful.”Skylark's voice came from the dense forest.
Although the figure could not be seen clearly, it did not take long before they heard Yuan Fei's Sun Slash's voice coming out from this forest as well.
" It's a big bug, but all tail beasts are powerful. Otherwise, they wouldn't be called 'walking catastrophes'. Since ancient times, wherever tail beasts go, corpses will be everywhere.”
"It's really hard to hand such a powerful guy over to Hidden Dragon Village. Why did the village do this? If it were me, I would use it for myself…" Skylark said after thinking for a moment.
" These things are not something that you can do as you please. This is a decision that Lord Naruto and the others made after careful consideration. Regarding the tail beast, we have already reached an agreement during the Five Shadow Convention. According to the agreement, Shigeaki Nanao should not be in the hands of the five great hidden villages. Since that is the case, it should naturally be handed over to the Hidden Dragon Village, which has a good relationship with us. At the same time, Hidden Dragon Village is also a 'neutral' village. I won't get involved in anything. This is already the best outcome…" Flying Ape Sun Slash explained to Skylark.
"I did hear that the Five Shadow Convention had resolved the distribution of the tail beasts, but after thinking about it carefully, now that the old man between the pillars has given all the tail beasts that he had captured to the other villages, our Muye has no one left. Isn't it a loss?”Skylark said again.
"The delivery of the Tail Beast is beneficial to the peace between the various hidden villages. With such power in everyone's hands, they naturally have to be cautious when they fight. Therefore, even if there are conflicts, they can be restrained to a large extent within the scope of 'friction' and not turn into war. As for our Muye, I heard from Teacher Feijian that another condition for the delivery of the Tail Beast is that if there is news of Nine-Tails, the other four villages must inform our Muye."In other words, the tail beast that Muye has is the strongest nine-tailed beast. It's just that we haven't caught it yet.”Yuan Fei Sun Slash opened his mouth and said again.
" Isn't this still a matter of 'mirage' and 'mirage'? If it were up to me, I think it would be best if we capture Seven Tails and bring him back to the village. Then, when we capture Nine Tails, we can hand him over to Hidden Dragon Village…" The Skylark's eyes darted around as it suggested a bad idea.
"Skylark, don't do anything rash. This is not a small matter. You want to hand over Seven Tails after capturing Nine Tails, but will the other villages think so? If we are not careful, our Muye will fall into a crisis of credibility. At the same time, it is possible that this hard-won peace will be destroyed…" Yuan Fei Sun Slash said very solemnly.
Hearing Yuan Fei's words, Skylark also smiled and said,""I was just saying it casually…"
After pausing for a moment, Skylark continued with some emotion,"This peace is really a fragile thing…I feel that any random thing that happens will be able to shatter this seemingly stable peace…"
Hearing Yunque's words, Yuan Fei's Sun Slash, who was currently dashing forward, had a trace of emotion flash across his eyes. Following which, he opened his mouth and said,""That's right. Peace is not something that can be obtained so easily. There have always been many conflicts between the five great countries. There have also been many wars. Now that the system has changed, the five great hidden villages are all newly built. Everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones. It is inevitable that they will be a little nervous. Once they are nervous, it is easy to cause trouble. Moreover, the troubled times and the warring states have not passed for long. The ambitious people will not accept this peace just like that…"
"Then, do you think that this Peace Guild will be far away? Is the possibility of war breaking out high?" Skylark asked again.
The Skylark's voice had just fallen when he saw Yuan Fei Sun Slash's figure stop on a large tree in front. Following that, the Skylark also landed up.
At this time, Yuan Fei Sun Slash turned his head to look at the Skylark's figure. A trace of heaviness flashed across his eyes as he opened his mouth and said,""In my opinion, there is indeed a time limit to this peace…Skylark, the other four villages are currently wary of Lord Naruto's strength. After all, Lord Naruto is known as the 'God of Ninjas.' Even the tail beast known as the 'Calamity' couldn't do well in his hands. The other four villages are naturally afraid of us…"
Speaking up to this point, Yuan Fei's Sun Slash's voice also became somewhat heavy. Following that, he continued,""But birth, aging, sickness, and death are the unchanging laws of the world. Even an expert as strong as Lord Naruto can't escape this fate, right? Once he could intimidate Lord Naruto from the other four countries and villages…In order to obtain more benefits, a war might break out at any time.”
More benefits? What more benefits? There was no doubt that the benefits that were currently in the hands of Muye. Although the Skylark family's Master Pillars had a pure heart and cared about the entire Ninja Realm, in the end, he was still the first generation of Lord Huoying of Muye Hidden Village.
This meant that he had to seek benefits for the Woodleaf Hidden Village. It was also because of his existence that the Woodleaf Hidden Village had become the strongest among the five great hidden villages. As the strongest, it was natural for them to obtain the most benefits, such as the number of missions entrusted to the small countries other than the five great countries, the export of the economy, the division of territory, and so on…
The Fire Country and Muye were the first to obtain these items, and the support behind them was the first generation of his Eye Fire Shadow, the Thousand Hand Pillar.
Just as Yuan Fei and Sun Slash had said, it was human nature to grow old, die of illness, and die of old age. Once the old man between the pillars lay down, the other four countries would definitely have some bad intentions. Without this great god between the Thousand Hands Pillars protecting the Woodleaf Hidden Village, it was hard to say if everyone could continue to be convinced and follow their big brother, Woodleaf.
Since the establishment of this village, no one had ever fought with real weapons to see whose village was the strongest. In the past, Muye had a thousand hands, and it was fine for us to admit defeat, but that would not be the case when the time came.
Therefore, from the way Yuan Fei and Sun Chop saw it, once Lord Naruto 'stepped down', then a war would definitely erupt between the five great empires. And this war was used by the various empires to obtain benefits on one hand, and on the other hand, it was also truly to determine the' superiority 'among the various Ninja villages!
Skylark looked at the Flying Ape Sun Slash and felt rather rueful in his heart too.
No wonder Second Master Feijian would hand over the position of Naruto to this fellow, Yuan Fei Ri Zhan, in the future. From his words, it could be seen that he was not only an extraordinary genius in the identity of a ninja, but he was also indeed very far-sighted when it came to the overall situation.
This Five Shadow Convention that symbolized 'peace' had just ended not long ago, but the young Yuan Fei and Sun Slash already saw through the smoke of war concealed behind this 'peace'.
Skylark was very clear that all of this would naturally proceed in the direction that Yuan Fei and Sun Slash were currently worried about. Once his Eldest Master 'laid down' on the pillar, this war would very quickly erupt. That would also be a huge war that would affect the entire Ninja World that would be called the 'First Great War of the Ninja World' in the future!
"Perhaps, but Sun Slash, although we fear war, if war is inevitable, then we must not fear war, right?”Skylark said with a smile.
Hearing Yunque's words, Yuan Fei's Sun Slash, who originally had a somewhat solemn expression, also laughed. Following that, he opened his mouth and said,""You little brat, you're not old, but the words in your mouth are quite powerful…Well, that's right. Although we revere war, we're not afraid of war. If war really comes…I believe that the final victor will be our Muye!”
After saying that, the Flying Ape Sun Slash also did not continue to discuss this topic with the Skylark. Without even giving a greeting, his feet moved, and his entire person disappeared from the tree trunk once again.
Skylark smiled when she saw this scene. Then, she moved her feet and followed him. She even shouted confidently,"Rest assured, Sun Slash. With me, the Thousand-handed Skylark, there is no way we will lose this war.”
"It's Uncle Sun Zhanzi. Yunque, don't underestimate the war!”Yuan Fei's Sun Slash's voice transmitted into the Skylark's ears from the front.
"Got it, Sun Slash!"
