Chapter 124 Death Mask

"Don't let them run away, hurry up and chase!"

"No matter what, no matter how much the price you pay, Lord Shuiying's body will be snatched back."

"Transfer the message back..."

The fog ninjas were in chaos, and the death of the Third Dynasty Mizukage was definitely an unexpected emergency. From the beginning, the enemy rushed out of the village blockade, to the Third Dynasty Mizukage fighting with the enemy, to the Six-tailed Raid, and finally Orochimaru sneaked into attack and killed the Third Dynasty Mizukage. In just one day, a series of heavy blows caught them off guard and could not even think about it.

The operation of the Fog Ninja Village ended in a crushing defeat, which is the biggest setback since the establishment of the village. The lives of the three generations of Mizuki and hundreds of ninjas were sacrificed in vain, but returned in vain. The most tragic thing is that the three generations of Mizuki, even the bodies were plundered by the enemy.

It was just like the house was leaking and raining all night! The Mizuki Village had already fought with Konoha Village and Yunxiong Village. It was a critical moment, but it caught the death of three generations of Mizuki. It was a disaster. But the Ninja World would not stop the war because of their tragedy and lose the leader of Mizuki. Konoha and Yunxiong would definitely take advantage of the situation and launch a storm-like attack while their situation is unstable.

Some of the clear-headed Mizuki had already thought of this, but they dared not say it out loud. They were afraid that Mizuki Village would be depressed because of this, so they could only rush to find the corpses of the three generations of Mizuki.

If the body can be retrieved, everything can be saved!

The facts once again prove that the Shadow of a Village will not have a good result when leaving the village, even if he brought thousands of double flower red sticks.

In the crowd, Tomimi Min picked up the fog hidden forehead that Duke had dropped. There was a deep scratch engraved among the four waves on his forehead. Tomimi Min didn't say a word, holding his forehead tightly and looking in the direction of the Kingdom of Fire from afar.

Outside the border of the Water Kingdom, an unknown broken ancient city was vast and lonely everywhere, with barren ruins overgrown with weeds, insects and snakes everywhere, without a trace of people.

A giant python that was taking a nap suddenly curled up, twisted for a few times, and then died. Duke and Orochimaru broke through the snake's belly and walked out. The birds around were frightened to see this, bringing a little life melody to this dead silence.

Duke looked around curiously, the remaining building remains and collapsed stone pillars could be seen everywhere. After wind and rain, he was still magnificent, and all proved his former prosperity. This city with a long history is extremely large, but for some reason it disappeared into the long river of history.

"Sir Orochimaru, where is this?" Duke asked. He could smell the fishy smell of the sea in the wind. He thought it was also an island like Hatsunomiya.

"The Kingdom of Vortex, a country destroyed by war." Orochimaru took Duke quickly to a stone wall. He pressed the mechanism in the corner and opened a secret door.

There is a long stone staircase in the secret door, with torches lit on both sides, which is indescribable and terrifying, like a giant python with a big mouth open, trying to choose someone to eat.

Duke was about to follow Orochimaru in when he glanced at him and saw a familiar sign. Not far from the weeds, a vortex-shaped mark was deeply engraved on the stone wall. All Konoha Ninjas were familiar with this mark because they had this mark behind their clothes.

Duke walked forward, reached out and stroked his hand, and his fingertips slid across the stone carving groove, bringing down a piece of weathered stone shatter.

"This is the former Hidden Village of Uzumaki, a powerful ninja village where the famous Vortex clan settled." Orochimaru came behind Duke at some time.

"Uzumaki clan..." Duke suddenly realized that if this is the case, it would not be surprising that the mark of the vortex clan appears here. The Uzumaki clan and Konoha's Thousand-Hand clan are distant relatives and allies. The two clans have been in exchange for generations. When the first generation established Konoha village, the mark of this clan was selected as a symbol of Konoha ninja to prove that the friendship between the two clans lasted forever.

"The Uzumaki clan has a special physique, and is huge and naturally long-lived. However, his temper is a bit hot and not popular. Because their clan's powerful sealing technique is feared by other countries and ethnic groups. During the war, the Uzumaki country was attacked by many countries, so it is destruction, and only a few descendants of ninjas scattered everywhere." Orochimaru said slowly, and popularized the unpopular knowledge of the ninja world for Duke.

"So that's how it is. A man is guilty of being innocent and possessing a treasure... because of his powerful strength, he aroused jealousy and was eventually destroyed." Duke nodded, which is very similar to Konoha's current situation.

Duke sighed for a while, then followed Orochimaru and walked into the secret passage. Soon after, he came to a secret room. The room was brightly lit, made of bricks and stones on all sides, and various test tubes, beakers, and a large number of equipment that were pushed to the test table neatly. In the center was a stone platform. You don’t have to think about it. This was an Orochimaru’s secret stronghold, or a kind of specialized research.

"No wonder Orochimaru can still be prosperous without Konoha. Before he rebelled, he prepared a way out for himself in the ninja world." Duke muttered to himself, "Is Uncle Snake a rabbit, why are there so many nests?"

Orochimaru came to the central anatomy table and released the body of the third generation of Mizuhashi sealed in the scroll. He began to collect hair, blood and skin tissue samples. Duke was still watching without hesitation.

The news of the killing of the third generation of Mizukage will soon spread throughout the ninja world. Orochimaru knew that the village would soon issue an order to hand over the body, so he didn't have much time, and every minute and every second was precious.

Whether it was the Blood Resurrection of Ice Escape or the body of Tenguriki, Orochimaru couldn't let go of it. He just wanted to seize every possibility and dig out enough data in a short period of time.

Orochimaru focused on the research. Duke watched it for a while, but lost interest because of the boring smell. He touched around the room and started to tinker.

"If you are idle, you can go out for a walk. I'll be busy in a while." Orochimaru's ears kept colliding, making him restless, and he waved his hand to let Duke go as far as he could.

Duke shrugged, threw down the measuring cup in his hand, walked out of the secret passage, came to the deserted street of Wochao Hidden Village, and wandered aimlessly. Finally, he turned over and jumped onto a high tower, scanning the remains.

Duke stood on the tower, slightly disappointed. The ruins of Wochao Hidden Village have been abandoned for too long, except for the ruins, and even the buildings have been weathered into sand.

"That weedy open space should be the training ground for Ninjas in the Twilight Village...that group of buildings are civilian houses, and shops are on both sides of the street...where is it?" Duke looked down at the village and suddenly found a large house with good preservation.

Duke was inspiration. In the whole ruin, there was only one big house intact. He couldn't help but have the idea of ​​finding treasures and walked towards the big house.

"Sacrifice to the temple!?" Above the door, a line of words was vaguely seen on the wooden plaque.

Duke split the thorns blocking the road, pushed open the gray door, and strode into the house. The deserted house was very empty, and there were no tables or chairs, but the four walls were covered with ferocious ghost masks, staring at the visitor, which made people shudder.

Duke picked up a mask, swept away the thick dust, and put it in his hand to look carefully. The mask was carved by unknown material, but it felt cold when it was opened, and it felt like flying gold and non-stone.

"The evil ghost mask in the Hidden Village of Wochao...is it?" Duke's mind flashed with inspiration. He looked at the mask in his hand excitedly. He seemed to have discovered an amazing treasure.

"This is a treasure! Since that's the case, I'm not polite! But which one is the real Death Mask?" Duke scratched his ears and found that the materials and shapes of all masks were the same, and there was no way to tell whether they were true or false.

"Don't care, take them all away. I counted on my fingers and said, this treasure is destined to be with me." The smile on Duke's face was about to overflow, and he carefully collected all the masks together, sealed them in the scroll, and placed them in the crack of the close-fitting clothespin.

"Dukejun, what are you doing here?"

As soon as he stuffed the scroll into his arms, Duke, who was happy, heard the hoarse voice unique to Orochimaru from outside the house.

"Ah! I saw some gadgets and found them interesting, so I put them away and planned to take them back to relieve the boredom." Duke turned around and walked out of the house and met them before Orochimaru came in.

"Since that's the case, let's go back!" Orochimaru didn't care. After the Hidden Village of Uroshima was captured, all valuable items were stolen. Even if there were still some left, it turned into a piece of loess after so long.

"Collection of materials so soon?" Duke refers to the corpse of the third generation of Mizuhashi. The anatomy maniac did not even have a slice. This is too strange.

"I just took a brief treatment. The test equipment here is insufficient. Forcibly taking materials will cause destructive damage to the corpse. After returning to the village, I will ask the third generation to apply and ask the corpse to study slowly." Orochimaru was a little disappointed. When Sarutobi Hinata gave him the corpse of the third generation Mizukage, I am afraid that the value of the corpse has been squeezed out.

"Speaking of this, you really care about Hongdou!" Orochimaru suddenly said, with a strong smile: "Zixiao mentioned to me some time ago that I asked me to accept her as my disciple..."

"If Lord Orochimaru doesn't want to, don't force it. Hongdou is stupid in qualifications and is lazy in food and can't do anything except cause trouble. How can he be your disciple?" Duke quickly persuaded, and he was worthless to demote Hongdou.

"Is that so? But I have promised Zixiao to accept her as his disciple!" Orochimaru chuckled and said, "I didn't expect that the child was so bad. I was really out of sight. At that time, I thought she was a genius!"

"It should be Lord Orochimaru who missed it. It's better to confirm it again!" Duke frowned and looked at Orochimaru, the cold air swayed on his index finger, and murderous intent flashed through his eyes.

Orochimaru smiled faintly, snake eyes and Duke confronted each other, and for a moment, the coldness in the air increased greatly!
