Infinite Clone System - I.C.S Chapter 167: Mosquitoes

“Well…,”

Jiraiya hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he still need the assistance of the Shichibukai.

In his opinion, as an organization that has existed for at least a thousand years, the knowledge and experience they have accumulated are unimaginable, not to mention that they have also experienced the mysterious era of the demons and wizards, which adds an extra layer of mystery.

“It’s not really anything… I just feel that there may be problems in the future,” Jiraiya shook his head. “Forget it, you’re not interested in this anyway. I’ll talk to your leader when I have the opportunity.”

“Boring…” Ace, with a disappointed look on his face, pressed down on his hat and replied, “Yeah, let’s deal with the altar in front of us first.”

“The exploration time is up, let’s go back and discuss with everyone.”

“Mm.”

The two of them slowly climbed down from the big tree and retreated towards the rear. Soon they reached the location of the Allied Shinobi Force.

Although three of the four elite shinobi were from Konoha, in addition to them, the Five Great Shinobi Countries also sent dozens of Jonin and numerous chunin shinobi, making their team much stronger than the squad from the Land of Water.

“Jiraiya-sama.” The one who came out to greet him was Shisui, he was forbidden by Fugaku from participating in battles unless it was necessary due to overusing his Mangekyō Sharingan too many times in the past few months.

This mission’s team was one that Shisui insisted on joining, otherwise, Fugaku would not have let him come.

But even though he was allowed to come, Fugaku still did not allow him to participate in this information search and capture mission.

After all, Shisui, who is young and powerful, is seen as a valuable treasure to the Uchiha clan and has a lot of room for growth in the future. They would not want him to lose his vision due to overusing his Sharingan.

In particular, his Sharingan Genjutsu is extraordinary, it’s an ultimate technique that can silently modify human thoughts, and it’s a force that can intimidate any power.

If an Uchiha wants to become the Hokage in the future, Shisui’s power will be essential.

In the original story, after losing Shisui, the Uchiha clan had no choice but to continue to lie low, this shows Shisui’s importance.

“Fugaku has not returned yet?” Jiraiya looked around and noticed that Fugaku was not present, he couldn’t help but wonder.

Because he stared at the town for a long time, he found that there was no movement at all in the town, not even a trace of living things. If it weren’t for the ancient altar in the center of the town, he would have doubted whether he had come to the wrong place.

“Not yet…” Shisui asked again, “Has Jiraiya-Sama found anything?”

“No…” Jiraiya said with a hint of sorrow, “It’s exactly like the intelligence says. It looks like a dead city, but no ninja who has infiltrated it has returned with any information. It’s as if the city has gone to sleep.”

Besides the altar of water, the altar of fire that was closest to Konoha was the second one found. At the time, the two Anbu who discovered it chose to infiltrate and destroy the altar, but one of them never came back.

This made the second Anbu who felt something was wrong, report back to Konoha immediately. He probably guessed that something was amiss here, which is why he sent the Uchiha clan with the strongest sensor, as well as Jiraiya who possessed Sage mode.

“Even Jiraiya-sama can’t sense anything…” Shisui couldn’t help but sigh, “If I were there, it would be better.”

“Don’t be so anxious.” Jiraiya patted the shoulders of Shisui. “Fugaku did not do anything wrong, the Sharingan you all got brought not just power, but also a burden.”

Allowing these two Konoha Ninjas to continue their conversation, Ace found a place to sit down and closed his eyes to meditate, as if preparing for the upcoming battle.

After about 20 minutes, he suddenly heard a loud noise coming from a few kilometers away, followed by a bright light.

Ace opened his eyes and looked at Jiraiya and Shisui, who also had no idea what was happening. He furrowed his brows, “This level of fire techniques, could it be that Uchiha Fugaku and the enemy are fighting?”

“Didn’t you tell us not to fight the enemy yet?!” Shisui exclaimed.

Jiraiya shook his head, “Something unexpected may have happened.”

“Don’t worry about that now, I’ll go check it out.”

“What’s the use of you going alone? It’s obvious that there’s a fight happening. Let’s all go together.”

Without waiting for him to say more, the ninja with him were all masters from their respective villages, and at this moment, they all had serious and eager expressions. This was the first time in history that the five great ninja villages were working together, and as representatives of their own villages, none of them wanted to bring shame to their villages.

Jiraiya originally did not want to directly engage in battle with the demons, but now it seems like there’s no other choice. “Then… let’s all go together!”

After he finished speaking, he took the lead and rushed to the front, heading toward the direction of the fire explosion.

Ace and Shisui followed closely, then it was the Jonin and Chunin ninjas of various countries, dozens of people went forward in a grand manner, shocking the birds and beasts in the woods. In front of these ninjas, the so-called wolves, tigers, and leopards were nothing but obedient kittens, let alone some small animals. At this moment, their passing was more terrifying than the king of beasts, but all the animals were fleeing in panic, only one kind of creature fearlessly blocked in front of them.

It was mosquitoes!

These mosquitoes, like a group of black clouds, buzzed like a symphony exclusive to them, recklessly biting the escaping animals. One mosquito landed on a ninja’s neck and suckled like a straw, greedily sucking blood, just like using an empty needle to draw blood.

The ninja felt like he was pricked at first, but in an instant, he felt a little wrong, because as the blood flowed out, he felt as if his chakra was going to be sucked away!

At this moment, he looked again, only to find that there were countless corpses all over the forest in an instant. Those small animals that were escaping were not afraid of them, these big ninjas, but were afraid of these mosquitoes like a natural disaster!

Of course, one mosquito is useless, but one hundred, one hundred is not enough, then come ten thousand, ten thousand is still not enough, then one hundred thousand or one million will be piled up to kill you!

With such many mosquitoes, not to mention some small animals, even lions and elephants, no, even if dinosaurs were brought up, they would probably also be bloodsucked to death!

It’s just that it’s useless to escape at this moment, their speed is far behind that of mosquitoes that can fly in the sky.

“Everyone be careful!”

Jiraiya also shouted loudly, seeing this scene he immediately thought of the report of Shisui, that a Mosquito Girl had appeared in the Land of Lightning. And that monster also controlled mosquitoes to attack the enemy.

But shouldn’t she have been killed by the Jinchuriki of the Two-Tails…
