Naruto: My clone can evolve - Chapter 181

c181 The country hidden under the waterfall

The next stop for Xuan Yue and others is the country of Taki.

The Kingdom of Taki is adjacent to the Kingdom of Iron, and is also bordering the Kingdom of Fire.

However, in the previous ninja wars, this place has not been disturbed by the flames of war.

The country of Taki is a small country hidden under the waterfall.

It’s more like a ninja village than a country.

Before entering the country of Taki, Xuan Yue contacted an old acquaintance.

This person is none other than Kakuzu, who is said to have fought against the First Hokage and is known as the legend of the Immortal Ninja.

Currently, he is working under the Yue Organization.

“Boss Xuan Yue, if you want to go to Taki Country for business, you have found the right person.” Kakuzu said confidently, “I was born here and am very familiar with this area.”

“Haha. Although I know it very well, it has been a hundred years since you left the country of Taki. I don’t expect the people you know to be still alive.” Xuan Yue said helplessly.

This time, Kurotsuchi said that he hated such a wet place, so he wanted to stay in the city near the Kingdom of Iron and wait for Xuan Yue and the others to finish their work.

As it happened, Chino had the same idea.

Therefore, the only people who entered the country of Taki this time were Xuan Yue, Sakura and Kakuzu as the tour guide.

In fact, the unwillingness of Taki Country to participate in the joint city wall plan this time really exceeded the expectations of the top management of the Fire Country.

Because the country of Taki has been a friendly country with Konoha since the incident with the First Hokage, that is, the failed assassination of Kakuzu.

To put it harshly, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a dependent country of Konoha.

Because when Kakuzu left the village, he killed a group of village elites, causing the strength of the ninja village in Takino Country to become worse from generation to generation.

In the end, in order to avoid the flames of war, I had no choice but to come to please Konoha.

As long as Konoha’s attitude is friendly, relying on this natural waterfall barrier, the country of Taki has also avoided several wars.

The country of Taki has always obeyed Konoha’s arrangements.

For some reason, this time, they refused to join the joint wall plan.

“Kakuzu, you have to play your role as a senior. To be honest, your qualifications are enough to be a Takikage when you return to the village? At least you are at the Taizu level, don’t let me down.”

Xuan Yue then wound up her horns.

“Boss, you also know that I killed someone and ran away. This status is not very honorable.” Jiaodu said in embarrassment.

“This is not simple. Those people are all dead anyway, so why don’t you just leave the blame to them?”

“You’re dead, don’t you just say whatever you want?”

Xuan Yue said with a smirk.

“Wonderful! Boss, you are so bad and yet so smart. My admiration for you is like an endless river.”

Kakuzu echoed.

“Can you be serious?” Sakura frowned and spoke, “Let’s think about how to get into this waterfall first!”

In front of the three people was a huge waterfall that could cover the sky and the sun.

In terms of scale, it is comparable to the huge waterfall Xuan Yue saw in Mt. Miaomu.

There is a ninja village hidden within this waterfall. This kind of thing will not be strange after seeing the terrifying size of this waterfall with your own eyes.

“It’s just a waterfall, let me set it on fire.” Xuan Yue said lightly.

“It’s better not to use it.” Kakuzu said quickly, “This waterfall is the city wall of Takino Country. They will definitely be angry if you destroy it. It will not be conducive to future cooperation.”

“Nonsense, do you think I can really burn?” Xuan Yue rolled her eyes at Jiaodu, “I asked you to think of a solution quickly.”

Kakuzu quickly understood, thought about it, and suddenly thought of something.

“I haven’t been back for decades. I don’t know if the hidden whistle has been changed.”

“In the past, when ninjas returned to the village, they would blow a whistle that only ninjas from Takino Country could know, and the people inside would help open the waterfall.”

Kakuzu took out his whistle from his pocket and blew a strange and curved tune.

After a while, just when Xuan Yue couldn’t help but burn the waterfall with fire, the waterfall changed.

Driven by a strange force, the waterfall slowly separated.

It was like a door opening towards Xuan Yue and others.

The three of them looked at each other and without hesitation, they jumped up and stepped into the cold and deep depths of the waterfall.

As soon as his back feet stepped into the cave inside the waterfall, the water curtain of the waterfall quickly closed.

It seems that this design is similar to that of Kakuzu’s design for the Yue Organization’s stronghold in the Country of Yu.

“Kakuzu, did you refer to this place for the design of Yu Zhiguo’s stronghold?” Xuan Yue said with a smile.

“Haha. Yes, I got some personal stuff. Every time I return to the stronghold, I feel like I’m back home.” Kakuzu smiled sheepishly.

The stronghold of Yuno Country is also hidden within a waterfall, just like Takigakure Village.

“I didn’t expect that the cave tunnel inside the waterfall was quite dry. I thought it would be very humid, with a bunch of bugs and so on.” Sakura said happily.

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge leech fell from the ceiling.

When Sakura saw the fleshy bug, she couldn’t help but get goosebumps all over her body, and she leaned closely against Xuan Yue.

“Are you still afraid of bugs?” Xuan Yue said disdainfully, “To be honest, I am also afraid of bugs.”

Kakuzu quickly stretched out countless resentful tentacles and absorbed all the insects into the unknown space.

“Leave it to me, boss.” Kakuzu said, “Actually, these leeches are not harmful.”

After walking for a long time, I came out of the cave.

What Xuan Yue and others saw immediately shocked their hearts.

A bustling city appeared on the other side of the waterfall.

Xuan Yue finally understood, the winding path led to a dark place, and then she suddenly felt enlightened.

It was as if he had entered the Peach Blossom Land.

“I didn’t expect there to be such a big space behind the waterfall! This is no smaller than Iron Wall City.” Xuan Yue sighed.

“Compared to our stronghold, it really pales in comparison.” Sakura smiled.

“Yes, it’s the same as when I left, but the city is indeed expanding.” Kakuzu whispered, “It always feels familiar yet strange.”

“Hurry up and finish your work. I have a bad feeling.”

Kakuzu’s premonitions were always very inaccurate.

But Xuan Yue was very concerned about what Kakuzu said. Although Kakuzu was not strong, he had never been as pessimistic as he was today.

What is it that makes Kakuzu so scared?

Like Kakuzu, Xuan Yue also smelled the unusual smell floating in the air through the humid air.

Is this the smell that makes Kakuzu restless?

After a long while, Xuan Yue recognized the truth of the smell.

This is the smell of some kind of tailed beast.
