Chapter 280: Cleansing Powder Operation!
Chapter 280: Cleansing Powder Operation!
Fire Country!
Dong Ping and the other three had reunited.
After leaving the Lightning Country, the two of them immediately sped up to shake off the Cloud Ninja's spies and circled around a few times before meeting up.
"How did it go?" Dong Ping asked eagerly as soon as they met.
"They're hiding beneath the ruins of the Void Village," Uchiha Shizuka replied.
After bringing the Divine Farmer back to the Fire Country, the two of them immediately began the interrogation.
Even though they weren't from the Torture Division, Illusion Techniques were the best means of interrogation.
Under the gaze of two pairs of powerful Sharingan eyes, the Divine Farmer not only revealed information about the Void Ninja but also divulged the color of his underwear without hesitation.
The ruins of the Void Village were located in the southern part of the Fire Country, in the Tea Country, not too far from them, and could be considered their neighbor.
During the Second Shinobi World War, one of the reasons Leaf Village wanted to destroy the Void Village, aside from them provoking Leaf Village, was probably because they were too close, and not eliminating them might have made Leaf Village feel uneasy.
Oh, and aside from the intelligence gained, there were some additional benefits.
[Medical Forbidden Art: Body Activation!]
[Medical Forbidden Art: Body Regeneration!]
...
[Zero-Tail Cultivation Technique!]
A large number of medical-related forbidden techniques and knowledge, along with something that caught Dong Ping's attention.
Zero-Tail!
At this moment, he remembered that the Divine Farmer was also a research expert and had single-handedly created something like the Zero-Tail.
Although the Zero-Tail, with its mask-like appearance and worm-like body, might not seem too powerful in combat, it could serve as an energy source, capable of keeping a city afloat.
This alone was enough to capture Dong Ping's interest.
The key point was that the Zero-Tail didn't consume oil... it only consumed people.
No, it only consumed dark emotions.
By extracting humans' dark emotions and converting them into chakra for use.
This technology was what Dong Ping had always yearned for.
With this technology, he could create an entirely new power system.
Just like chakra, natural energy, and other forms of power, he could create a power system unique to him.
As mentioned before, if one's strength solely relied on the chakra system, they would be like pigs for the Otsutsuki Clan to slaughter, as Yin-Yang Release made them immune to ninjutsu.
Therefore, creating a non-chakra-based power system was essential.
Dong Ping carefully collected these materials.
At this moment, Dong Ping's mind was already brimming with ideas, especially regarding his extraordinary organ, for which he had already formed a plan.
The Nine-Tailed Fox and the power armor were not what he desired.
That was why he had never prepared them for himself.
Otherwise, how could he not consider using such a powerful ability with no side effects for himself?
Now that he had obtained this technology, a prototype formed instantly in his mind.
Using the Divine Tree fragments as the foundation, faith power as the trunk, and his imagination as the branches, he could undoubtedly create an extraordinary organ with limitless potential.
"Should we start now?" Uchiha Meika asked decisively.
If it were any other place, they might need to prepare first, considering issues like marching and transportation, as well as concealment.
But the Tea Country?
It was practically their 'neighbor'.
The key point was that they could go there directly by sea.
Thinking about it, the enemy had also set off from the Tea Country to take revenge on Leaf Village ten years later.
Those steel ships and aircraft carriers were thrilling to think about.
"Send the message back and start as soon as possible!" Dong Ping was not one to be indecisive and nodded immediately.
With the leader of the Void Ninja, the Divine Farmer, now in their hands, if he realized he had gone missing, it might alert the enemy, so the sooner they acted, the better.
Message transmission now had a new method.
The Ninja Cat Clan!
They could be used for communication.
For example, most of the Uchiha Clan had summoning contracts with them, so if they gave a message to the Ninja Cats here, the Uchiha on the other side could quickly summon them and receive the message.
However, this method was too troublesome to use frequently.
"Summoning Technique!"
Uchiha Meika bit her finger and summoned a white Ninja Cat.
"Lady Meika, why have you summoned me?" The other party appeared and respectfully greeted her.
The Ninja Cat Clan was not like the rebellious Ryouchi Cave; they treated their contractors with respect.
"Deliver this letter to Hachida!" Uchiha Meika placed a rolled-up letter into the other party's mouth and then took out a bottle from her ninja tool bag and inserted it.
The bottle was their reward.
Without this, the Ninja Cats would not serve you.
Even with a signed contract, it didn't mean they would serve you without compensation.
Mokutendou! It was the Ninja Cat Clan's favorite, and they spent most of their rewards on purchasing this item.
This substance could be considered 'Catnip'; once inhaled, they would be in a state of euphoria.
"Yes, Lady Meika!"
The Ninja Cat nodded and voluntarily dismissed the Summoning Jutsu.
With this, the letter would quickly reach Hachida's hands.
As for why it was Uchiha Hachida and not the more powerful Uchiha Soaring or Yamagakai Kousuke?
Of course, it was because Hachida was more suitable for such tasks.
Whether it was Yamagakai Kousuke or Uchiha Soaring, both could serve as formidable vanguard generals, and even as main generals if needed.
But assigning them to logistics and management tasks would be a challenge for them.
Before they took action, it was natural to find a reason for this operation.
Just like the White-Headed Eagle from before, who used the excuse of 'Cleansing Powder' to cause trouble, they needed to come up with a similar reason.
If the distance was too far, they would definitely follow the original plan.
But with such proximity, adjustments to the plan were necessary.
At the very least, they could move the technology to Storm Island, but the existing production equipment could remain in Cha no Kuni.
As long as Cha no Kuni was under their control, they would essentially have control over these resources.
Furthermore, there was another important reason for targeting Cha no Kuni.
Trade!
Previously, trade with the Water Country required going around Cha no Kuni's southern region. If they controlled it, they would have a stable supply point or even a cargo transit hub.
The benefits were numerous!
So, by throwing a bag of 'Cleansing Powder' into Cha no Kuni and then having them 'eradicate dangerous goods' for an extended period, they could achieve their goal.
After all, there wasn't even a ninja village there, only a daimyo, so it was easy to manipulate.
Tenjuu! After receiving the letter, Hachida immediately sought out a person.
"I have a mission... How should I proceed?"
He was well aware of the other party's identity.
The ace of the Root Division! This was their specialty.
Hachida himself excelled in logistics and internal affairs management but was less familiar with these matters, which was why he sought their advice.
After listening, Yagyu Nao's expression remained unchanged.
This was nothing! During his time in the Root Division, Danzou had destroyed countless small countries and ninja villages.
Or else, where did he get the title 'Shadow of the Ninja World'?
It was built upon countless piles of white bones.
So, giving Cha no Kuni a bag of 'Cleansing Powder' was not a big deal at all.
"I heard that Cha no Kuni has recently cultivated a 'Mandrake Tea' that turns anyone who drinks it into a source of viral infection, and it's colorless and odorless, making it impossible to detect!"
Yagyu Nao immediately thought of a solution.
Mandrake Tea! It didn't matter if they actually had it or not; as long as they believed they did, it would work.
"Alright, the mission is yours!"
Hachida gave his approval.
However, a look of difficulty appeared on Yagyu Nao's face.
She couldn't help it; working two jobs left her extremely busy, and she even had to take on part-time work to earn extra money.
It wasn't that someone was embezzling funds allocated to the Tenjuu Orphanage; it was because she had taken in numerous refugee orphans, causing a shortage of funds.
Just as she was thinking of how to refuse, Hachida added, "I'll release this mission publicly, rating it as S-class with a reward of 1 million ryo!"
The Tenjuu also had a mission system.
"No problem, leave the mission to me. I guarantee the fastest completion!"
Yagyu Nao instantly accepted the mission, as if the person who had intended to refuse was not herself.
And so, Cha no Kuni was doomed.
