Because he noticed the shadow clone returning from grocery shopping.
"I'm going to the kitchen."
Kitazawa deactivated his shadow clone and carried the groceries to the kitchen.
Kurenai has already cooked the rice and is preparing the seasonings for the stir-fry.
"Leave the rest to me."
Kitazawa put down the vegetables and hugged her from behind.
"doing what?"
Kurenai's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively looked towards the kitchen doorway.
"You've been training all afternoon and you're so tired, I can't bear to let you continue cooking."
Kitazawa patted her buttocks twice and said.
I would be even more touched if you hadn't laid a hand on me.
Kurenai put down the cleaver and said, "With guests here, I shouldn't go to rest. I'll go and chat with your students."
Strictly speaking, she was the real hostess, and even Kitazawa was a guest.
After all, this is her home.
"Ah."
Kitazawa released her.
Kurenai bit his lip before leaving with a smile.
Time passed slowly.
The sun set and night fell.
It was February, and it got dark early.
What are you talking about?
Kitazawa came out of the kitchen carrying a bowl and chopsticks.
Do you know the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist?
Kurenai asked in return.
"The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are so famous, of course I know that."
Kitazawa paused slightly, then smiled and said.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are an elite ninja team from Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village) who specialize in performing high-difficulty missions for the Mizukage.
His status in Kirigakure is somewhat similar to that of the Three Legendary Sannin of Konoha; he can be considered a high-ranking member of Kirigakure.
Moreover, the title of Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist is one that can be passed down through generations.
Many famous Jonin from Kirigakure have joined the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
The first generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist were crippled by Might Dai.
During the Third Shinobi World War, Might Guy, who had opened the Eight Gates, encountered the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist and kicked them into a mess.
Simply put, four died and three escaped.
"Juzo Biwa and Raiga Kurosuki, two members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, became rogue ninjas of Kirigakure."
Kurenai Yuhi said with a smile, "This matter has already caused a sensation in the ninja world. Because we didn't go on the mission, we found out a step too late."
Such big news will be shared by Konoha Village with every ninja who goes out on a mission.
The reason is simple: to avoid encountering them.
But if you unfortunately encounter them, run as far as you can.
If you can't outrun them, you'll most likely die.
Upon hearing this, Kitazawa raised an eyebrow.
Should he defect at this time?
Thinking about it carefully, they are indeed quite similar.
In the original work, Obito Uchiha controlled the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, which led to Kirigakure being plunged into a bloody reign.
Of the three surviving members of the first generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, apart from Suigetsu Hozuki, Juzo Biwa and Raiga Kurosuki both defected due to dissatisfaction.
After his defection, Juzo Biwa joined the Akatsuki organization and became teammates with Itachi Uchiha.
In other words, he defected before the night of the extermination, which is around this time.
However, due to the Kitazawa butterfly effect, the night of annihilation will most likely not happen again.
It's unlikely that Juzo Biwa will become teammates with Itachi Uchiha as in the original work, nor will he die protecting him.
However, Kitazawa did not know whether he would join the Akatsuki organization.
However, given Akatsuki's widespread recruitment efforts, it's highly likely he will join.
Black Hoshirai, in comparison, was not as spectacular.
He picked up a little boy named Ranmaru on the way, then seized a gold mine in the land of rivers and hid there to bully others.
He ultimately died at the hands of Naruto Uzumaki, Neji Hyuga, Rock Lee, and Tenten, who were on a mission.
It's worth mentioning that Ranmaru has the nemesis of the Byakugan: the Red Eye.
The Red Eye possesses powerful X-ray vision, observation, and perception abilities, and can also create chakra images to interfere with the Byakugan.
"The Hidden Mist Village has also issued related missions."
Kurenai Yuhi continued, "If you can capture or kill them, you can get a generous reward."
"The Seven Ninja Swordsmen all possess the strength of elite Jonin."
Kabuto shook his head and said, "Most ninjas would find it difficult to complete such a mission."
"Ah."
Kurenai agreed, saying, "I doubt anyone will answer."
Kitazawa's heart stirred, and he fell into deep thought.
He didn't know where the loquat was hidden.
However, the exact location of Raiga Kurosuki is clearly stated in the original work: in the Soxa Kinzan of the River Country.
In terms of fame, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist far surpass the Twelve Guardian Ninjas.
It's no exaggeration to say that if they defeated Raiga Kurosuki, many people throughout the ninja world would know about their ninja team.
In addition, Raiga Kurosuki's Lightning Blade: Kiba and Lightning Release ninjutsu are also quite valuable.
[You've discovered a high-level mission that can enhance the ninja squad's reputation.]
[Current Mission: Defeat Raiga Kurosuki, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.]
[Mission Reward: Composite Ninja Art - Hurricane Water Vortex Technique.]
【Whether to accept? 】
Kitazawa smiled as he looked at the four lines of text before him.
As expected, it triggered a system task.
After all, Raiga Kurosuki is a powerful character with a name and a name in the original work.
The mission reward is the same as the previous Guardian Ninja mission, which is a combination of ninjutsu.
However, this combined ninjutsu is even more powerful.
Chapter 220: Confrontation with Danzo Shimura at the Root Base
Composite Ninja Art: Hurricane Water Vortex Technique is still a combination of two ninjutsu: Wind Release: Rasengan and Water Release: Rushing Stream.
In the original work, it was used by Naruto Uzumaki and Yamato.
They used a combined ninjutsu technique called Flame Wind Chaos Wave, consisting of Wind Release: Pressure Damage and Fire Release: Head Hardening, to deal with Kakuzu.
In terms of power, it is not inferior to some S-rank ninjutsu.
The Composite Ninja Art: Hurricane Water Vortex Technique is spectacular in terms of its ninjutsu effects alone; it can create a giant tornado with a diameter of over ten meters.
There is also high-temperature water vapor inside the tornado.
Kitazawa accepted the mission without hesitation.
After all, none of the ninjutsu he currently possesses is more powerful than the Composite Ninjutsu: Hurricane Water Vortex Technique.
As for Raiga Kurosuki, he is indeed very strong, but his strength is limited.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been killed by Neji Hyuga and Naruto Uzumaki.
The only problem is how to explain to Hiruzen Sarutobi why he knows Raiga Kurosuki's location.
Kitazawa stroked his chin.
It seems I need to take on a mission from the Land of Rivers, and then I stumbled upon Kurosuki Raiga's trail.
Given his identity, Hiruzen Sarutobi certainly wouldn't have any doubts.
Besides, if they were to kill Raiga Kurosuki, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, it would undoubtedly enhance the reputation of Konoha.
Given Hiruzen Sarutobi's personality, he certainly wouldn't refuse such a good thing.
"Come and eat."
Kitazawa put down his bowl and chopsticks and said.
"Let's go."
Kurenai clapped her hands and said, "See if the food your teacher made suits your tastes."
"Teacher Kitazawa's cooking must be excellent."
"I am Kabuto," Yakushi Kabuto said immediately.
"You can praise me after you've eaten it."
Kurenai glanced at Kitazawa and said, "Although you are his students, you must not learn to be glib and smooth-talking like him."
"Don't slander me in front of my students."
Kitazawa beckoned to her and said, "Go to the kitchen and help me serve the dishes."
"Please take your seats."
Upon hearing this, Kurenai got up and went to the kitchen.
As soon as she entered the door, Kitazawa hugged her and exclaimed in surprise.
Because Kitazawa raised his hand and slapped her buttocks hard twice.
"This is your punishment for slandering me."
After Kitazawa finished hitting her, he gently rubbed her buttocks.
Enraged, Kurenai Yuhi stood on tiptoe, aimed at his neck, and bit down.
A moment later, a faint tooth mark appeared.
"I didn't slander you, I was just telling the truth!"
Kurenai Yuhi gave a soft hum and said.
I'll deal with you tonight.
Kitazawa released her, picked up a plate of food, and said.
Suddenly, something occurred to Yuhi Kurenai, her heart skipped a beat, and a blush rose on her pretty face.
The two returned to the living room.
"Next Saturday, I'll take you on a very difficult mission."
Kitazawa picked up his chopsticks and said, "Come find me at nine o'clock in the morning."
