Infinite Simulation: From Konoha To Moon

Chapter 47: Playing Cards with a Smile

Li Xiang doesn't like the Seven Blades of the Mist.

It doesn't fit his aesthetic.

He prefers the katana.

In the world of shinobi, in his past life, he liked the Tang sword and the Han sword.

Because he found them exceptionally beautiful.

Li Xiang put away the remaining two blades.

The Blunt Blade Dougeki is a shinobi tool with a rope connecting a knife on one side and a hammer on the other.

The Long Blade Sewing Needle is an enlarged sewing needle that makes Li Xiang feel like an old woman.

In short, they are two unconventional weapons.

In fact, Li Xiang had a speculation long ago.

Is it possible that most of the Seven Blades of the Mist are just for show?

The only truly magical one is Samehada.

Probably because seven is a magical number.

"Tomorrow, go to Kirigakure and find Terumi Mei."

Li Xiang instructed, "Hide your identity before meeting her."

Although he revealed his codename, Bi Luo, he is not ready to reveal himself yet.

The first reason is that he doesn't have his finger protector with him.

The second reason is that he wants to complete his clearance mission and find a way to contact Orochimaru.

Trivial matters can be handled by Tenju, but when it comes to simulated evaluations, he can't afford to be careless.

"I understand."

Even if Piba Juzo doesn't understand, he still needs to make it clear.

After seeing Li Xiang off, he turned and entered a secret room.

According to headquarters' orders, if it's Bi Luo, he must immediately report back.

What Piba Juzo doesn't know is that the person who possesses Bi Luo has been missing for a long time.

Li Xiang returned to Kirigakure.

He already had an idea of Obito's farewell gift.

It wasn't anything grand, just a secretly slipped letter.

To scare him away.

Li Xiang didn't want Obito to intensify his actions due to Kirigakure's resistance and bring members of Akatsuki over.

Although Nagato probably wouldn't let him go too far.

At this time, Akatsuki should be focused on making money, and even the plan to capture the tailed beasts hasn't been launched.

Although Gyuuki Yagura is under control, he still has Anbu protection.

Li Xiang obtained an Anbu identity from Ao.

Ao is the leader of the Anbu, and he readily agreed to the request without even asking for a reason.

As Terumi Mei's disciple, Li Xiang was able to convince Zabuza Momochi and Piba Juzo one after another, so having an Anbu identity was nothing.

Without a doubt, Ao already sees him as the successor to Mizukage, just like Chojuro.

Compared to Chojuro's personality, he is more willing to invest in Li Xiang.

"Three years, another three years, and I'll become the boss."

Li Xiang casually complained.

It's obviously easier to rise to power in Kirigakure than in Konoha Village.

If you're handsome, you can even become the riding position.

Li Xiang, dressed in Anbu attire, secretly placed a letter in Gyuuki Yagura's office.

The next day.

Obito saw the letter.

Or more accurately, it was handed to him by Gyuuki Yagura.

He only glanced at it, and his body trembled.

The envelope didn't contain a long message, just a drawing.

It depicted him and Rin Nohara.

And it was from when they had just graduated.

Instantly, he had a feeling of being haunted.

No one besides Black Zetsu and Uchiha Madara could possibly know his true identity.

"Where did you get this letter from?"

Obito asked with a dark expression.

"I found it on the desk."

Gyuuki Yagura answered expressionlessly, "I don't know who put it there."

Obito instinctively tightened his grip on the photo.

A strange feeling surged within him.

He felt that these past two years had been extremely unlucky.

First, he was taught a lesson by Uchiha Itachi in Konoha, and now he encountered such a warning in Kirigakure, which he had controlled for many years.

Yes, in his opinion, it was a silent warning.

His brows furrowed as he noticed a line of words after the photo.

"When you try to manipulate others, you are also being manipulated."

Obito suddenly felt a chilling sensation.

But quickly, he sneered and said, "Playing tricks!"

He burned the photo and fell into silence for a moment, but the gloom in his heart couldn't be dispelled.

Who is this person exactly?

The sound of knocking on the door.

Orochimaru walked in and said, "I plan to leave in two days, but I want to take Higurashi Hiyuki with me."

"Whatever."

Obito didn't even look at him.

He wasn't in the mood.

Orochimaru licked his lips. If he wasn't unsure, he would have made a move already.

Unfortunately, this guy has a space-time ninjutsu, so he can't catch him.

Orochimaru doesn't know about Mangekyō Sharingan, so he thinks it's space-time ninjutsu, not dōjutsu.

If he knew the truth, he would be even more covetous of the Sharingan.

Originally, Obito was going to join Akatsuki as Aoi after the death of the Red Sand Scorpion, but because he was frustrated in Konoha, he planned to manipulate Nagato earlier and go to Konoha to carry rice.

And Orochimaru went to Kirigakure, one was to meet his new teammate Hoshigaki Kisame, and the other was because he found Kimimaro, so he wanted to take advantage of it.

At the same time, Li Xiang was playing cards with Chōjūrō and Ibushi Jūzō.

Because they were bored.

They were waiting for Terumi Mei's orders.

Li Xiang thought about it and decided to play cards.

Zabuza was completely disdainful.

And Haku naturally wouldn't join.

"Chōjūrō, hesitation leads to defeat. The longer you think, the worse it might be."

"A two!"

Chōjūrō gritted his teeth and said.

"Pass."

Li Xiang waved his hand.

Chōjūrō immediately breathed a sigh of relief and played three cards with a three and a four.

"Follow."

Li Xiang smirked, played three cards with a four and a three, and then ended with a pair.

It was simply perfect.

"???"

Chōjūrō immediately became dejected.

"Chōjūrō, today I will teach you a lesson. When playing cards, you should play with a smile."

Li Xiang happily accepted his one thousand two.

Just then, Terumi Mei walked in.

Chōjūrō immediately stood up and instinctively hid the cards in his hand.

Just like a student peeking at black stockings during class and being caught by the teacher.

Li Xiang, on the other hand, remained completely calm.

Terumi Mei said helplessly, "Chōjūrō, learn from Hiyuki more."

Chōjūrō nodded hesitantly.

"Forget it, let's get back to business. Prepare yourselves."

Terumi Mei said decisively, "Success or failure lies in tonight!"

They didn't want to wait any longer.

For Kirigakure, if the Mizukage is controlled for even a minute, it is a minute of shame.

If it gets out, it will surely be a disgrace.

If Li Xiang knew her thoughts, he would comfort her and say that Gōzu Yagura is not the most embarrassing Kage.

The setting sun hung in the sky.

Ao and Terumi Mei paid their respects to Gōzu Yagura.

"What's the matter?"

Gōzu Yagura looked like a teenager from the outside, but in reality, he was already a grandfather.

His rare green hair seemed to reflect his current situation.

Ao looked up, took off his eye patch, and activated his Byakugan.

His invisible eye power quickly expanded.

Obito, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly trembled.

Not good!

He felt that Gōzu Yagura had broken free from his control.

In the next moment, the Mizukage's building collapsed with a bang.

Three thick tails covered in spikes attacked him at an extremely fast speed.

A vast amount of chakra filled the surroundings.

It was enough to show Gōzu Yagura's anger.

"Water Style: Great Dam Repair!"

Everyone present was skilled and reacted quickly.

Hoshigaki Kisame jumped into the air and spat out a sea.

"Hiyuki, step back."

Terumi Mei formed hand seals with both hands and sprayed a large amount of corrosive acid from her mouth, effortlessly piercing through the water waves and enveloping Hoshigaki Kisame.

She's a dangerous woman.

No one can withstand a bite.

Perhaps this is also one of the reasons why she can't find a boyfriend.

Li Xiang wisely stayed away.
