"Only one?"
Shion asked with some confusion, "Didn't Kitazawa-sensei say there were two?"
"Perhaps he/she is out and not at home."
Hinata Hyuga guessed.
"Hinata, lead the way."
Kitazawa gave the instructions.
"Ah."
Hinata Hyuga walked at the very front.
Under her guidance, the group soon arrived at a cliff.
Looking down at the cliff, Kitazawa saw no bottom, only shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see anything clearly.
"This fog contains a deadly poison."
Tsunade glanced at it twice and then spoke.
"If we want to get down, we need to either blow away the fog or prepare an antidote."
Uchiha Sasuke frowned slightly as he spoke.
If Naruto Uzumaki were here, it would be easy to solve, but he doesn't know Wind Release.
"Leave the detoxification to me."
Tsunade smiled and said with a slight upturn of her lips.
She's already enjoyed herself for two days, and if she doesn't do some work soon, she'll truly be a winner without lifting a finger.
"With Tsunade-sensei taking action, there's definitely no problem."
Kitazawa paused for a moment, then nodded and praised him.
Shion looked at Tsunade with curiosity.
Although she had only studied medical ninjutsu, she had already heard of Tsunade's great name when she was in the Land of Demons.
"As an excellent medical ninja, detoxification is a must-have skill."
Tsunade glanced at Shion and said, "However, you've only just started learning medical ninjutsu, so you haven't learned how to detoxify yet."
After she finished speaking, she extended her hand.
Chakra surged from her palm, enveloping a small portion of the poison gas.
Not long after, she opened the psychic storage scroll and took out various bottles and jars.
Making an antidote is difficult with just chakra; it requires the addition of appropriate medicinal ingredients.
"Alright, just take it."
Ten minutes later, Tsunade gave everyone a bottle of antidote.
"It seems this poison is indeed very potent."
Kitazawa made his judgment based on the time it took Tsunade to make the antidote.
"Having enough time, I made the corresponding antidote directly."
Tsunade understood his implied meaning and explained, "In the midst of a battle, I would prepare a short-acting emergency antidote first."
However, she wasn't saying this to Kitazawa.
Ziyuan nodded subconsciously.
Although she is a beginner, she will definitely use this knowledge in the future.
"Let's go down."
After taking the antidote, Tsunade tried to jump down.
"and many more."
Kitazawa grabbed her wrist and said, "Going down directly might lead to traps or a summer attack."
After he finished speaking, he formed a mudra with his hands.
A seed fell to the ground and took root and sprouted.
In the blink of an eye, it sprouted dense vines that spread down the cliff.
The vines sprouted branches, which intertwined and formed a natural tree ladder.
"Amazing!"
Ziyuan blurted it out.
She had seen many ninjutsu techniques, but she rarely saw ninjutsu with such versatility as Wood Release.
"I'll go first."
Tsunade said this and started walking downstairs.
"The three of you walk in the middle."
Kitazawa instructed, "Shion goes first, then Hinata and Sasuke."
The three of them immediately did as instructed.
Kitazawa walked at the very back.
Upon entering the fog, he smelled a pungent odor.
Fortunately, the antidote was taken beforehand, so there were no adverse effects.
When we were halfway there, the wind suddenly howled.
A giant eagle flew out from the poisonous gas.
This eagle is not a real eagle, but is composed of a special kind of energy.
Yin Release: Rasengan!
Uchiha Sasuke immediately activated his three-tomoe Sharingan.
He reached out, leaped up, and slammed his hand down on the eagle.
With a loud bang!
Two streams of air surged outwards, dispersing the poisonous fog.
A figure came into view not far away.
She was Xia Ri, a young female ninja who didn't look particularly old.
At this moment, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
Her peacock magic trick was actually cracked by a boy who was only about ten years old?
But she didn't have time to think about it.
Because Sasuke Uchiha had already charged towards her.
Brilliant lightning bolts slanted down.
"The Sharingan with three tomoe?"
Summer noticed Sasuke Uchiha's reddened eyes.
The Peacock's Winged Magic!
A pair of wings sprouted from her back, and she quickly dodged the lightning.
"Stop!"
Summer hurriedly called out.
She had previously thought that Kitazawa and the others were sent by Akahoshi, but only the Uchiha clan of Konoha Village possessed the three-tomoe Sharingan.
"Sasuke."
Kitazawa shouted and jumped to the bottom of the cliff.
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke stopped in his tracks, but still watched Natsumi warily.
After regaining his footing, Kitazawa scanned the area and discovered a dense network of traps.
Although it's nothing to him, if Uchiha Sasuke and the others come down rashly, they'll probably suffer a lot.
This is why Kitazawa had them climb down the vines earlier.
It's mainly for teaching them.
After all, Kitazawa can't lead the team forever.
Especially after he becomes Hokage, the opportunities to lead the team will become very few and far between.
"Are you ninjas from Konoha Village?"
Summer looked at Kitazawa, Tsunade, and the others, and asked.
Although the three-tomoe Sharingan was enough to confirm Sasuke Uchiha's identity.
"I am Kitazawa."
Kitazawa nodded and replied.
Xia Ri was stunned for a moment, then her expression changed drastically.
She had heard of Kitazawa's reputation, especially since he was the second Wood Release ninja in Konoha since Hashirama Senju.
But on the other hand, he couldn't possibly be the savior that Akahoshi invited.
Hoshigakure is just a small ninja village; it doesn't have the authority to ask Kitazawa for help.
"This is Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage of Konoha Village."
Kitazawa raised his hand and introduced himself.
"...?"
Summer was suddenly filled with questions.
what's the situation?
Kitazawa's appearance here was already unexpected for her.
But now there's also the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, which is simply a fantasy.
Does this mean that Konoha wants to annex Hoshigakure?
"I'm just passing by, you don't need to be so nervous."
Tsunade noticed her expression and said with a light laugh.
Kitazawa was in charge of this mission.
She said she was just passing by and there was nothing seriously wrong with her.
"Summer".
Kitazawa stepped forward and said, "Let's talk about serious matters."
"You know me?"
A look of astonishment appeared on Xia Ri's face.
“I did my research before I came here.”
Kitazawa paused for a moment, then got straight to the point: "You didn't receive the news at the bottom of the cliff, but the Third Hoshikage has already died at the hands of Akahiko."
"what?"
Summer's eyes widened as she asked, "How is this possible?"
“Akahoshi, you know him, a daring and ambitious man.”
Kitazawa casually took out a scroll and said, "This is the result of our secret service's investigation."
Summer quickly took the scroll and began to read it.
The scroll details very clearly how Akahoshi murdered the Third Hoshikage.
