Chapter 429: The Reincarnation Eye Completion Plan!
Chapter 429: The Reincarnation Eye Completion Plan!
"It's actually true!"
Uchiha Yai muttered to herself.
Although she had complete faith in Dong Ping's prophetic abilities, she was somewhat skeptical about the story he hinted at.
It wasn't that she didn't trust Dong Ping, but the story was just too far-fetched.
Who would believe in things like the 'Moon Goddess' and the 'Six Paths Sage'?
And when Dong Ping told these stories, he did so in a narrative manner, so naturally, no one took it too seriously.
But now?
There was actually a descendant of the Great Tree Clan.
Even if it was just a descendant, their appearance might prove that there was indeed something amiss on the moon, and the story of the 'Moon Goddess' might also be true.
The ultimate secret of the Shinobi World!
Compared to this, the current Kiri-nin army that had arrived was not as important.
To put it bluntly, even if the Skyguard Lineage were to fall, they could always rise again with their strength and capabilities.
After all, the Skyguard Lineage's development was largely due to the presence of these powerful individuals, not to mention their possession of the Oni, a powerful creature from another world.
Even if they had to relocate, they could still thrive, and Yai was well aware of this.
"Notify Minister Shizuka to come immediately!"
Uchiha Yai issued the order directly.
Next, she would head straight to Konoha, but she wouldn't abandon the Skyguard Lineage.
At the same time, she had great confidence in the Skyguard Lineage's strength.
Whether it was high-end or mid-to-low-end combat power, the Skyguard Lineage of today was far superior to what it used to be.
Aside from other aspects, just in terms of Shadow Rank Ninja, even with her absence, there were still Uchiha Sho and Uchiha Shizuka.
Not to mention elite Jonin like Scarlet Lotus, Mizukage Kaoru, and Makibishi Suzutsuki.
If they felt it was not secure enough, they could even recall Yae, who was still in the Land of Birds, stirring up trouble.
With so many powerful forces, it might not be possible to sweep away the Kiri-nin army, but there would be no difficulty in holding them off or delaying them, at most, they would suffer some losses.
Of course, the Skyguard Lineage's defense was set up outside, not within the fortress itself.
If they were to engage in such a battle, even if they managed to hold off the enemy's attack, it was unlikely that many would survive.
Soon, Uchiha Shizuka arrived at the office.
"Minister Shizuka (she preferred to call her 'sister' instead of 'aunt'), I'm entrusting the Skyguard Lineage to you. I must leave for a while!"
Uchiha Yai didn't waste any words and directly explained her mission.
Although the enemy's combat power wasn't the strongest, it was definitely the one that gave her the most peace of mind.
With their prestige and capabilities, they could indeed take her place and hold down the fort.
After all, the Kiri-nin army wasn't a full-scale attack.
At the very least, the Kagami Clan and the Genso Lineage hadn't joined, and there were only around two thousand of them.
However, the combat power of these two thousand ninjas far surpassed the several thousand ninja armies that the Fire Country's Great Lord had gathered.
This was because not only was their average strength much stronger, but more importantly, they all belonged to the same ninja village, and their execution was on a completely different level.
Therefore, even with the Skyguard Lineage's advantage in terrain and equipment, they would have to give it their all to hold off the enemy.
When the ninja army attacked, it was natural for small ninja squads to take action, and only when they couldn't hold on any longer would they choose to retreat or make a final, all-out assault.
The current Kiri-nin hadn't reached that point yet; they were just probing, and then they would launch a full-scale attack. That's why powerful ninjas like Yai could stay in the rear and didn't need to be on the front lines.
Having elite Jonin like Scarlet Lotus, Wildflower Rin, Mizukage Kaoru, and Uchiha Tetsukazu was enough.
"Alright!"
Uchiha Shizuka nodded, her face filled with astonishment.
She truly hadn't expected that at this critical moment, not only had Dong Ping not returned, but even Uchiha Yai, who was supposed to take his place, was leaving as well.
However, despite her surprise, her first reaction was to agree without hesitation, not even asking for a reason.
"Also, find someone to impersonate me. I don't want the news of my departure to be known!"
Uchiha Yai, already in her combat attire, disappeared from the office.
Her instructions were necessary.
If the Kiri-nin found out that she wasn't at the Skyguard Lineage, they might not even need to probe and would launch a full-scale attack.
Minister Shizuka was also well aware of this, so she immediately sought out the pharmacist, Yano, to plan how to pull off a 'deception'.
In Konoha!
Dong Ping was extremely busy.
He was constantly refining his plan and trying to gather intelligence on the Great Tree Clan father and son.
(End of Chapter)The location where the enemy would appear was not difficult to guess.
Chiyota!
By keeping an eye on her, one could deduce a lot of information.
First, the enemy possessed an incredible stealth ability; otherwise, no one in the entire Hyuga Clan would have been able to detect their movements.
Then, there was their strength! If they weren't powerful, they wouldn't have treated Konoha like a vegetable garden, entering and exiting as they pleased.
After careful consideration, Dong Ping brought out something he had developed long ago.
With ample nutrient solution and blood, this thing was truly remarkable.
Pollen!
This plant had only one effect: continuously dispersing pollen into the surrounding area.
However, due to the minuscule amount and lack of scent, even the Inuzuka Clan's keen sense of smell wouldn't detect it.
But this pollen was trackable by certain special bees.
Clever Idea!
Developing such things wouldn't be considered difficult even by Orochimaru.
The key was to have the clever idea in the first place.
These items, commonly used in various games before his transmigration, had been overplayed, so it wasn't challenging for Dong Ping to come up with them.
It could only be said that as a transmigrator, even if his creativity was lacking, he wouldn't resort to plagiarism, would he?
With the Bloodline Blossom and this flower, it was enough to ensure that the target would be covered in pollen.
While in Konoha, the pollen couldn't take effect because it covered a wide area, making it impossible to pinpoint the target.
But once the enemy left the village alone, tracking them would be much simpler.
It could only be said that Dong Ping went to great lengths to avoid alerting the enemy, perfecting every detail.
And when Uchiha Yai quietly arrived, she didn't enter the village either but waited outside.
Since their target wasn't in the village, there was no need to go there.
Dong Ping even planned to 'leave' the village with Squad 404.
However, leaving now wasn't easy.
Konoha was currently in dire need of manpower, and Squad 404 was their last resort. How could they let him go so easily?
But Dong Ping only needed one sentence to make the village compromise.
"Does the village want to see the Heavenly Fortress fall to the Kirigakure army, or should I stay and wait for reinforcements?"
Indeed, if the Heavenly Fortress wasn't under attack, using the village's manpower shortage as an excuse to keep him there would be reasonable.
The problem was that the Heavenly Fortress was currently under assault by the Kirigakure army.
If the village kept him now, it would be like sentencing the Heavenly Fortress to death.
So, when Dong Ping asked this, the higher-ups had no choice but to agree.
Of course, if the higher-ups were preparing reinforcements and wanted him to lead a force, that would be another matter.
But was that possible?
They could only spare a thousand Ninja Army to defend against the Cloud Ninja Army, indicating that Konoha had no resources left to support the Heavenly Fortress.
So, they had no choice but to let him go.
They couldn't say, "Don't go back to protect the Heavenly Fortress, could they?"
Although that's what they wanted, they couldn't do it.
In reality, only Houshi Mountain Clan was truly leaving, while Dong Ping and Uchiha Yai remained in the village.
Despite their confidence in the Heavenly Fortress, it was more prudent to send Houshi to help, and he was too conspicuous.
Those who stayed behind were Dong Ping, Uchiha Yai, and Hyuga Cangyue.
Dong Ping was actually the least pleased with this arrangement.
Killing Field! Those who understood knew what it meant.
The two had completely incompatible auras.
With just one of them, he could handle it easily and occasionally provide some benefits.
But when the two 'kings' met, the air seemed to freeze.
Dong Ping had always been afraid to make a move because he feared that as soon as he took action, the other would turn dark and come after him with a knife, ready to 'slay' the scumbag.
This wasn't paranoia; the possibility was real, so he was utterly serious, avoiding any romantic gestures or wandering gazes.
Fortunately, they had an important task, or he feared he wouldn't live long.
The three of them prepared to hide outside the village for a while.
Of course, they each sent a Shadow Clone in different directions, carrying Tracker Bees to ensure they could follow the enemy regardless of their escape route.
Two days later, in the late hours of the night, Dong Ping suddenly opened his eyes while leaning against his sleeping bag.
