Chapter 841: Diving Down!
Minato Namikaze did not dispel the two Shadow Clones from before, as the Smoke and Sound when a Shadow Clone disappears are not small.
So, he simply had them walk at the very front of their Group (Unit), continuing to act as Scouts.
The four people, split into two pairs, all transformed into Desert Lizards about ten centimeters long, and then used the Invisibility Technique to further conceal their Figure.
As for 'Chamaru', since it only knew the Transformation Technique and the Reverse Summoning Jutsu to return to Konohagakure's Inuzuka Clan Grounds.
It could only transform into a Desert Lizard and then crawl into Inuzuka E's upper pocket.
Soon.
The two Manifestations, four people, and one dog silently bypassed the outer Watchtowers.
Then came the second, and the third. To ensure they didn't cause too much Commotion, their movement Speed was a bit slow. They cautiously spent nearly a full hour finally approaching the East Side of Lou Lan City's City Wall.
At this time.
The four had already stopped using the Radio, showing great Rapport, as they knew there must be many Experts on top, especially those with Sensory Ability.
However, no matter how dangerous, they still had to find a way to enter Inside the City, because they were Ninja, and their Mission was precisely this.
Next.
While maintaining the Invisibility Technique Effect, Minato Namikaze underwent Recovery to his Human Form, and then, according to the Operation Plan they had discussed along the way, he first attempted to enter Inside the City alone.
Yes.
Normally, he could have just jumped up, but for the sake of concealment, he attached a layer of Chakra to his hands and feet, climbing up the rough wall surface, which was severely weathered, like a gecko.
A moment later.
Hizashi Hyuga also underwent Recovery to his Human Form while in the Invisibility state.
Because he couldn't use the Byakugan in the form of a Lizard, he needed to use the Byakugan to conduct Surveillance of the surrounding Commotion for Minato Namikaze and give timely reminders if a Situation arose.
"There are so many!"
Minato Namikaze was surprised to find upon reaching the City Wall Top that not only was there a Gun-wielding Soldier guarding every ten meters or so on the City Wall Top.
Inside the familiar Lou Lan City, on the Sky Bridges crisscrossing between the Spires, there were also many Gun-wielding Soldiers were on Patrol in Columns, and occasionally, they could see some Men in Black flying by stepping on the Air.
This was definitely a well-organized, large Influence/Power!
"But where are the Ninja?"
Minato Namikaze's Line of Sight kept Scanning, but he couldn't see any Figure dressed as Ninja. Could it be that there was no Sea Ninja Village at all, and they were all disguised before?
Regardless, they had to go deeper.
Because there were Gun-wielding Soldiers nearby, he couldn't make a Sound, so he could only stay close to the City Wall and make a tactical Hand Signal to the people below. He knew Hizashi Hyuga was watching from below.
Soon.
With Hizashi Hyuga's discreet reminders, the three successfully climbed onto the City Wall Top one after another, and then continued to maintain a formation of two in front and two behind, moving towards the Central High Tower Inside the City of Lou Lan.
As expected of four Konoha Jonin, their Professional level in this regard was without Moisture.
Their caution was even more astonishing. Using Hizashi Hyuga's Byakugan Ability, as long as there was someone wearing a Black Suit ahead, they would always go around or wait for the other party to leave first.
Because they were unwilling to gamble on whether the other party had that strange Sensory Ability.
"We're here!"
Minato Namikaze and Choza Akimichi, who were walking in front, arrived near the base of the towering giant High Tower, pressing close to a Spire wall to observe the Gun-wielding Soldiers near the Main Gate in the distance.
"Captain, the Rooms on each floor of this High Tower have a large number of Men, Women, Old and Young who seem like Civilians. There are also a few people on the top floor, one of whom is a Women sitting on a Throne, who should be the Queen of Rōran."
Hizashi Hyuga quickly said in a heavily suppressed Voice into his Earphone from behind.
It seems they have imprisoned everyone in the entire city inside...
Minato Namikaze's Heart sank. He only felt that if Combat occurred later, he must avoid causing too much Destruction to this High Tower.
However, the News that Queen Sara was unharmed was good News.
"How is it? Do we need to take away the Queen of Rōran?" Choza Akimichi asked in a low Voice to the seemingly empty space beside him.
"We can try."
Minato Namikaze replied in a low Voice after Thought. He also felt that since that Crocodile was not here, there shouldn't be anyone too Strong in Rōran.
And with his Means, taking people away wouldn't be difficult...
"However, our Mission is to gather more Intelligence. Taking her away now will definitely cause a stir."
"Hizashi-san, next, please go to the West Side of the High Tower with E-san, and then use the Byakugan to look deep Underground there. You should be able to find a Palace similar to an Altar."
Minato Namikaze always felt that both Crocodile's appearance and the Objective of this group were inseparable from the Dragon Veins here.
After all, that was the only thing of Value in Rōran.
"Understood."
Hizashi Hyuga was particularly obedient. Upon hearing the Order, he immediately rushed to the West City District cautiously with Inuzuka E, not daring to turn off his Byakugan for a moment.
"Choza-san, let's split into one in front and one behind again and climb to the highest floor of this High Tower. Once they see useful Intelligence over there, we'll make our move and take away the Queen of Rōran!"
Minato Namikaze briefly explained the next Operation.
"No problem!"
Choza Akimichi nodded heavily.
However, both were using the Invisibility Technique, so neither could see the other. They could only achieve Perception of the other's Position by their sharp hearing and close-range Chakra Signature.
Neither of them was a Sensory-type Ninja, and they were both suppressing their Aura with Consciousness, so they could only barely sense each other within a Distance of ten.
But this was enough.
Next was climbing the outer wall of the Central High Tower. This kind of thing was completely a basic operation for them.
The convenience of Chakra was once again reflected.
"We're here..."
After a long time, Minato Namikaze finally climbed to the window on the highest floor and saw Sara, who had stood Up from the Throne at some point and was Speaking to a Women in a black dress with purple hair.
That Back View with long reddish-brown hair actually reminded him of his wife at home.
This made Minato Namikaze even more determined to rescue Sara's Heart.
"To be able to infiltrate here, you Ninja do have some Ability/Skill. However, you came at just the right time..."
But at this moment, an indifferent Voice with a hint of mockery abruptly came from inside, which startled Minato Namikaze.
He was discovered!
Minato Namikaze's Reaction speed was incredibly fast.
Almost the moment he heard the first word, he had already made a backward dodging movement. At the same time, a flash of bright Blade Light smoothly cut through the High Tower outer wall he had just been lying on.
At this instant.
The Sharpness edge of the Vacuum Blade and Minato Namikaze's nose tip, as he jumped backward, were less than two centimeters apart. The light blue Blade Light could even be reflected on his handsome face.
[Swish!]
However, Minato Namikaze disappeared into thin air, while the crescent-shaped Blade Light continued flying towards the High Altitude in the distance.
But this also caused his Invisibility Technique to fail, and he appeared beside Choza Akimichi, who was still lying on the High Tower wall below.
"Phew, is it finally time to Combat? Not bad, it's been a bit uncomfortable holding back..."
Seeing this, Choza Akimichi also let out a sigh of relief. He immediately used the Chakra on his feet to stand upright on the wall surface.
He looked up with Minato Namikaze beside him at the Figure whose upper body emerged from the cut in the wall on the top floor.
It was a man with long silver-white hair and a cold and stern demeanor, holding a slightly curved Long Saber with a Blade flashing with Cold Light in his hand.
"Samurai?!"
Choza Akimichi said in surprise.
"Die!"
The man said nothing unnecessary. The next second after his eyes met Minato Namikaze's, he dove down at high Speed without hesitation, turning into an Afterimage...
