Chapter 873

"That's true."

Inuzuka Kiba grinned and said: "I have to thank teacher Kitazawa for his help."

Time passed in the idle chat of the few people.

"Is that the Land of Waves?"

Inuzuka Kiba stood up and pointed to an island not far away.

This island was very large, and one couldn't see the end of it at a glance; on the island, quite a few buildings could be vaguely seen.

"Hmm."

Kitazawa nodded and asked again: "How are Itachi guys resting?"

"Already rested, I can take on three now!"

Inuzuka Kiba held up three fingers and said.

"Then let's start the mission."

Kitazawa reminded them: "Itachi need to find Gato's location first, then infiltrate his home and look for valuable intelligence."

"Don't we need to find specific intelligence?"

Yamanaka Ino thought for a moment and asked.

"Whoever can find the employee list of Gato's shipping company first will get extra points."

Kitazawa thought about it and said.

"That's definitely me!"

Inuzuka Kiba waved his arm and said: "Let's go!"

"Wait for us!"

Yamanaka Ino and Tenten hurriedly chased after him.

"Kurenai, Itachi follow them secretly."

Kitazawa looked at them and said: "I'm going to the island next door to find the Aburame clan's deep-sea exploration team."

In the original story, Gato hired Momochi Zabuza and Haku because he wanted to assassinate Tazuna.

Now the plot hasn't even reached that point, so it's estimated there won't be any Jonin.

After all, hiring a Jonin to be a long-term bodyguard is very expensive.

And according to the ninja code, ninjas are not allowed to attack non-ninjas, especially daimyo, nobles, and wealthy businessmen.

In the original story, even after Momochi Zabuza became a rogue ninja, he endured Gato time and time again.

It wasn't until just before he died that he dragged him down with him.

Of course, not all ninjas will strictly abide by the ninja code.

In the original story, there were also incidents of ninjas attacking daimyo.

However, it was mostly in small countries.

The daimyo of the Five Great Nations are protected by the Five Great Villages, and ordinary ninjas don't dare to attack them.

In short, this ninja world has its own unique rules.

Although in Kitazawa's view, it's very strange.

"Okay."

Yuhi Kurenai disappeared from where she stood.

Kitazawa waved his hand.

Driven by chakra, the small boat under his feet headed toward the east.

A dozen minutes later, an island appeared before his eyes.

This island was much smaller than the Land of Waves; it was desolate and uninhabited, with only a few wooden houses built by the deep-sea exploration team.

Before Kitazawa even reached the shore, two ninjas of the Aburame clan wearing white robes appeared.

"Lord Kitazawa."

After they discovered it was Kitazawa, they hurriedly bowed and called out.

"How is the situation?"

Kitazawa asked while walking.

"Lord Kitazawa, my name is Aburame Muta."

After Aburame Muta introduced himself, he said: "We have already conducted one exploration, but there are no discoveries for the time being."

Kitazawa nodded.

In the original story, Aburame Muta was a special Jonin, and his role was very small; he was killed by Deidara in the Fourth Ninja World War.

"Lord Kitazawa, please come in."

After Aburame Muta invited him into the house, he opened a map and said: "This is a map of these waters."

There was a small circle on the map, which was the area the deep-sea exploration team had explored.

Kitazawa estimated that they hadn't even explored one-thousandth of the area.

"There is pressure on the seabed, and it's very deep, so the area we can explore every day is limited."

Aburame Muta looked at his expression and said cautiously.

"I understand."

Kitazawa thought about it and said: "I happen to be free today; gather the others, and I'll give Itachi a hand."

"Yes, Lord Kitazawa."

Aburame Muta was puzzled but still did as he was told.

Soon, the deep-sea exploration team was all present.

Kitazawa glanced at them; he didn't recognize any of them.

Because Aburame Shibi was the clan leader, he had already returned to the Hidden Leaf.

"Let's go!"

Kitazawa was the first to board the boat.

This boat belonged to the deep-sea exploration team; it was a medium-sized boat that could seat up to twenty people at once.

Soon, they arrived at the designated waters.

Aburame Muta looked at Kitazawa.

He still hadn't guessed how he was going to help them explore the seabed.

After all, Kitazawa wasn't a ninja of the Aburame clan and didn't have kikaichu.

Kitazawa stood on the boat and formed hand seals.

Driven by chakra, the seawater spread toward both sides.

"This is...?"

Aburame Muta widened his eyes.

He had already guessed what Kitazawa wanted to do.

Not just him, the other Aburame clan members also reacted one after another, showing shocked expressions.

It wasn't that they hadn't thought of this method, but they didn't have the ability to do it.

It should be said that there were very few people in the entire ninja world who could do it.

Konan, who was in the shadows, also had surprise flash in her eyes.

Forcibly separating the sea, besides requiring extremely high Water Release strength, also required a massive amount of chakra.

Konan remembered that Kitazawa was a civilian ninja without any special bloodline.

How could he have so much chakra?

However, compared to Kitazawa, what she was more curious about was the deep-sea exploration team.

What was the Hidden Leaf Village trying to do by forming a deep-sea exploration team?

She didn't think of making money at the first moment.

This is the thinking possessed by traditional ninjas, and she was no exception.

"Use all the bugs!"

Aburame Muta shouted.

Now that the seawater was separated, other kikaichu could also be used.

In an instant, an overwhelming number of kikaichu surged toward the seabed.

Kitazawa looked at them, thinking to himself that he didn't know if he would have the luck to discover some special resources today.

At the same time, in the Land of Waves, in a very luxurious courtyard.

Yamanaka Ino and Tenten were hiding in a corner waiting.

At their feet was the ninja dog named Yueyue.

A moment later, it spoke: "Lord Kiba is approaching."

As soon as its voice fell, the excited Inuzuka Kiba appeared before them.

"How is it?"

Yamanaka Ino asked impatiently.

"With me on the job, there's definitely no problem!"

Inuzuka Kiba took out a teacup and said: "This is the teacup Gato drank from!"

Yueyue walked up and sniffed it.

After it remembered the scent, it immediately used chakra.

In an instant, all the places in the courtyard with the same scent were known to it.

"Gato's information must be kept in those secret places."

Tenten reminded: "Yueyue, Itachi carefully distinguish it."

"Hmm."

Yueyue nodded and said: "Follow me."

Under its leadership, the three of them went through quite a few twists and turns before finally finding Gato's information room.

"Worthy of being Kitazawa's students, they are really smart."

Yuhi Kurenai, who was observing from the shadows, praised.

Although the real hero of this infiltration and intelligence gathering was that ninja dog.

Just then, Yuhi Kurenai raised her eyebrows.

A crisp sound of bells rang out.

"Not good!"

Inuzuka Kiba's face changed drastically, and he said: "I triggered a warning trap!"

He had originally wanted to take the information on the bookshelf, but he didn't expect there to be transparent warning steel wires in front of the bookshelf.

After being touched by him, there was the sound of bells.

He was careless; happy for a moment, he forgot to check.

"Run!"

Yamanaka Ino said without hesitation.

"We've been discovered!"
