Bab 326: Chapter 326: Star Ninja Village
Konoha Year 55.
The news that Scarlet Yu single-handedly destroyed the entire Hidden Cloud Ninja Village had just spread throughout the ninja world when another shocking piece of news shook everyone's nerves the next day.
The most illustrious noble family of the Land of Fire's Konoha, the Uchiha Clan, known since the Warring States period as the strongest fighting clan, faced a calamity of extermination.
According to the announcement by Konoha, the culprit behind the destruction of the entire Uchiha Clan was none other than the genius ninja of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Itachi, the son of Uchiha Clan Head Uchiha Fugaku.
Konoha has now declared Uchiha Itachi an S-rank rogue ninja and will fully pursue his whereabouts. This news has shaken the entire ninja world.
Just the day before, the Hidden Cloud, one of the Five Great Ninja Villages, was destroyed by Scarlet Yu, and the day after, Konoha's Uchiha Clan was exterminated by Uchiha Itachi. In a short span of time, consecutive events that shook the entire ninja world made people, who had just experienced a brief period of peace, feel a renewed sense of turbulent and surging undercurrents.
At the same time, even Yu, who was traveling in the Land of Bears with Haku and Kimimaro, received this shocking news immediately.
"Itachi, at this point... have you still reached this stage?"
Upon hearing the news of the Uchiha Clan's extermination, Yu's long eyelashes trembled slightly, but his amber eyes remained calm and unruffled.
Ever since he learned about Shisui's suicide two years ago, he had predicted that things would eventually come to this. But what did it have to do with him?
Back when he was in Konoha, he never got along well with the narrow-minded and arrogant ninjas of the Uchiha clan, and there were even a few minor conflicts during that time. So he didn't care at all about the Uchiha Clan's fate.
The only thing he lamented was Shisui's death and Itachi ultimately taking the path of exterminating his clan.
"Yu-sama, why have we come to the Land of Bears?"
After passing through the lush and dense forest, the trio arrived at a vast canyon. In the middle was a long, split cliff, with a yellow clay ground on the opposite side and a dense forest in the distance.
Beside Yu, Haku looked up at him curiously. Although Yu had often taken them on travels throughout the ninja world in the past two years, they had never been to such a remote country as the Land of Bears before.
"The Land of Bears has always had diplomatic relations with the Land of Fire..."
"I remember the Star Ninja Village founded in the Land of Bears has regular dealings with Konoha..."
Sensing Haku's curious gaze, Yu patiently explained, "Legend has it that the Star Ninja Village has a miraculous meteorite called 'Star,' which fell from outer space over two hundred years ago. That's why the village is named 'Star Ninja Village.'"
"It's said that this meteorite named 'Star' contains part of the energy of the Ten Tails.. The Star Ninja Village typically practices around this meteorite to harness Chakra that surpasses normal levels, making many ninja villages covet this power."
Although the so-called Star Ninja Village was an addition in the later stages of the Naruto anime in his previous life, after crossing over to this world, Yu discovered that these fictional elements actually existed.
"So... Yu-sama, are we here to obtain that mysterious meteorite from the Star Ninja Village?"
After hearing Yu's explanation, Kimimaro, walking beside Yu, flashed a trace of understanding on his cold and stern face.
"That's right... Although I don't have much expectation for that so-called meteorite from the Star Ninja Village."
Seeing Kimimaro express his intentions, Yu did not deny it, simply nodded calmly. "But after all, it's something linked to legends and the Ten Tails. It wouldn't hurt to bring it back for study..."
That was the truth. Although he always scoffed at methods relying on external forces for training, the Ten Tails was the origin of all Chakra in this world. Anything even remotely connected to the legendary Ten Tails piqued his interest for thorough understanding.
"Who's there?!"
As soon as Yu spoke, Kimimaro, walking beside him, suddenly stopped. His icy green eyes flashed, and the palm hidden under his loose sleeve swiftly shot out to the side!
"Shikotsumyaku: Five-Finger Drilling Bullets!"
Activating his Kekkei Genkai Shikotsumyaku, Kimimaro's finger bones shot out like bullets, hidden within the bushes nearby, hitting the mysterious ninja hiding there with a direct hit, forcing them to reveal themselves.
Using the ability of his Kekkei Genkai Shikotsumyaku, Kimimaro's finger bones can infinitely regenerate. Even if all finger bones are shot out, he can regenerate them again. Its attacking power is so great that even in the anime, it could barely be withstood by Gaara, a Jinchuriki of the One-Tailed Beast.
"Quick reaction. You've improved lately..."
Seeing Kimimaro instantly take out the mysterious ninja hidden nearby, Yu also stopped and nodded in satisfaction.
These ninjas' sneaky traces naturally couldn't escape his Observation Haki's sensing, but he often used this to test Haku and Kimimaro's combat response capabilities.
"Are there still ninjas... Looks like there are quite a few of them!!"
Just as Kimimaro suddenly struck down the hidden ninja nearby, countless spinning kunai were thrown from another direction's bushes, swiftly attacking toward their position.
"Water Release: Water Wall!!"
Reacting first, Haku swiftly formed hand seals with both hands, then slightly opened his mouth and sucked in, instantly spraying a large amount of water from his mouth. This created a constantly surging water barrier around the three of them, blocking all the attacks from kunai and shuriken.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...
Apparently caught off guard that Haku and Kimimaro, two young boys by Yu's side, would have such sharp skills, after the attack failed, several figures quickly darted out from the bushes on both sides. Twenty or so mysterious ninjas had already surrounded the three of them in the middle.
"Hmph, this is our territory, the Star Ninja Village..."
"You three intruders dare to kill our ninjas here, your purpose must be the 'Star,' right?!"
The Water Wall released by Haku slowly settled in front of Yu and the other two. Among the twenty or so mysterious ninjas surrounding them, a ninja with long, light purple hair gradually stepped forward, eyes cold and hostile as he stared at the trio.
"A pentagram-shaped forehead protector..."
"I see, so you're the ninjas from the so-called Star Ninja Village..."
As if unaffected by the threatening tone in the ninja's words, Yu's calm and indifferent gaze casually fell on the forehead protectors he wore, confirming his identities in his mind.
"The so-called Star Ninja Village?"
Seemingly sensing a hint of disdain in Yu's tone, the leader of the Star Ninja Village group gritted his teeth. A sinister smile crept onto his face.
"Hmph, looks like you three aren't planning to reveal your origins. Yotaka, Shiso, kill them!!"
