Combined with his overly large nose taking up nearly half his face, Jinpachi looked like a patchwork monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His comment drew laughter from the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a shame Takuya isn't in the Land of Fire. I'd love to take down that Konoha prodigy and reclaim Samehada for the village.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jūzō sneered, \"Hoshigaki Fuguki really is useless, losing one of the village's most important weapons.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the Seven Ninja Swordsmen seemed unified on the surface, in reality, they were highly competitive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seven people with seven special swords; the question of who would lead was always a serious one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Growing up under the brutal reign of the Blood Mist, none of them were pushovers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Seven Ninja Swordsmen were among the fiercest of the Mist, with blood-stained hands from countless enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoever would lead the Seven would inevitably face fierce competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Typically, Fuguki was the most dominant among them, almost establishing himself as the leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But fate wasn't kind to him. During a patrol mission, he crossed paths with Takuya, and the encounter left him dead, his sword taken by Takuya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No amount of political negotiation or diplomacy could bring Samehada back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even attempts by the Hōzuki clan to summon it using scroll-based summoning had failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takuya had placed too many seals on Samehada; the Mist Village was dreaming if they thought they'd ever get it back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, the target is in sight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, unaware of the Seven's infiltration, Takuya was already nearing the Mist Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he knew the Seven Ninja Swordsmen were in the Land of Fire, he'd applaud Yagura's decision:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>May you run right into a Genin named Might Duy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let the shinobi world see just how terrifying a Konoha Genin can be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite increased patrols and stricter defenses due to the war, nothing stopped Takuya from advancing undetected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his chakra completely concealed, he was invisible to even the sensory ninjas hidden in the shadows, as long as he didn't make his presence obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to the intel Hatake Sakumo gathered, the hidden entrance should be this way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every village had secluded entry points for ANBU operatives, and the Mist Village was no exception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, Hatake Sakumo had gathered information on this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takuya could only tip his hat from a distance, thoroughly impressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Collecting this kind of intelligence wasn't easy, and Hatake Sakumo, not being a genjutsu expert, must have worked hard to get it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Curiously, despite his focus on taijutsu, kenjutsu, and lightning techniques, Sakumo had an impressive knack for gathering intelligence — among the best in Konoha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Jiraiya and Orochimaru wouldn't claim to be better than him in that regard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who's there!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, an entry point for ANBU operatives wouldn't be left unguarded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noticing someone approaching, one of the guards tensed, instinctively raising his head, only to find himself staring into a pair of Sharingan, with three tomoe slowly spinning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ANBU guard slumped against the wall, sliding down to the ground, unconscious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Smoother than expected.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stepping over the fallen ANBU guard, Takuya slipped into the Mist Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since his target had gone down without a sound, Takuya decided not to finish him off to avoid getting blood on himself, which would only attract unwanted attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entry points for ANBU were always located in discreet spots within the village. Takuya glanced up at the darkening sky, calmly perched in a tree as he pulled out a pre-made meat pie and began eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After filling his stomach, he leisurely placed a kunai on a branch, channeling chakra through it to signal Minato that he could come over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back on the island, Minato had been patiently waiting, but with an entire day gone by and no word from Takuya, he was beginning to worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with absolute faith in Takuya, he couldn't help but feel a bit anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still nothing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting on a tree branch, Minato kept glancing in the direction of the Mist Village, only to see nothing but thick fog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The island was shrouded in mist, and all Minato got for his efforts was a whole lot of nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With night approaching, Minato was starting to get frustrated. Judging by the time, Takuya should have reached the Mist Village by the afternoon if he'd kept pace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was almost dark, and still no sign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could he have encountered enemies along the way?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Should I inform Teacher Jiraiya and Orochimaru?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minato's mind began to race with possibilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided to wait a little longer. If Takuya didn't show by nightfall, he'd inform Jiraiya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As dusk fell, just as Minato was about to send a message with his toad, he sensed the Flying Thunder God mark activate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delighted, Minato followed the signal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grab some food first; then we can start the mission.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takuya handed him a meat pie as Minato plopped down beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you only calling me now? I thought you'd run into trouble,\" Minato said, taking a bite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No trouble; just took my time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takuya laughed at Minato's overly active imagination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he'd run into trouble, he'd have signaled Minato right away instead of casually strolling over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides, haven't you heard? Dark, windy nights are the best for these kinds of missions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, well, the Mist Village doesn't exactly have a moonlit sky. It's just a dark night for killing here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come on!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can you not be so snarky?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takuya glanced up at the fog-covered sky; sure enough, not a trace of the moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"People in the Mist Village sure have it rough, can't even catch a glimpse of the moon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cough!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minato nearly choked on his food, looking around as Takuya chuckled and handed him a water bottle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After eating and taking a short break, Takuya tucked away his kunai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll head off on the mission; you stay here. When you feel the mark activate again, come and get me to leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don't need my help?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. Too many people around will just slow me down. You stay here and rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Traveling such a long distance isn't easy, and I might need you to stay hidden. The Mist ninjas might even think I haven't left and end up chasing their tails around the village.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the original story, Minato, influenced by Takuya, hadn't yet become widely known.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Flying Thunder God Technique hadn't been exposed, and the enemy had no intel on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takuya thought keeping Minato under wraps for now could give their enemies a surprise down the line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a shame.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing atop one of the taller buildings, Takuya looked out over the Mist Village, shaking his head in regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this were Konoha, he could enjoy the night view, but here, you could barely see anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides the mist, the reign of the Bloody Mist made the streets practically deserted after dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this was just early evening. In Konoha, it'd be one of the busiest times of day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But here, the Mist Village was silent, like a ghost town, with barely any lights to be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>",1313,"2026-06-05T21:23:24.029Z",1,"novelbin.me","0ab26002edc1c16a73544fc2058413eaf0bb76b0225cd0edc0085daa6263e784","naruto-i-traveled-with-a-max-level-account-chapter-1773","naruto-i-traveled-with-a-max-level-account-chapter-1771",2215,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-i-traveled-with-a-max-level-account-cover.jpg"]
