Chapter 701 Crisis
The headquarters of the Hidden Mist Village's Anbu is hidden deep within the village, appearing outwardly no different from any other building. However, Zhang Hai knew that a tremendous danger lurked within.
He stopped in a secluded corner with Bai in his arms. He carefully observed his surroundings, his Sharingan scanning every corner of the Anbu headquarters, searching for an opportunity to infiltrate.
Soon, Zhang Hai discovered a hidden underground entrance. Without hesitation, he took Bai and quietly infiltrated the headquarters of the Dark Division.
The underground entrance passage was unusually narrow, and the air was filled with a damp and rotten smell. At the end of the passage was a huge underground space.
The headquarters of the Hidden Mist Dark Division was actually built on an underground river! The river flowed gently, making a crisp sound, adding to the eeriness of the gloomy environment.
The corridor was dimly lit, and the walls on both sides were covered with various runes and mechanisms. Rooms were densely packed along both sides of the corridor, each door tightly closed, as if concealing countless secrets.
Zhang Hai, with Bai by his side, cautiously made his way through the corridor. He knew that every step he took could lead to a trap, and every door he opened could pose a danger.
He randomly chose the nearest room and gently pushed open the door. Inside, the room was filled with various scrolls and documents, clearly a archive room. Several Hidden Mist ninja were sitting at a table, intently organizing the scrolls.
Without the slightest hesitation, Zhang Hai activated his Sharingan instantly. He rushed into the room and, before the ANBU ninjas could react, cast a genjutsu on them.
"Tell me, where is the S-rank intelligence on Kumogakure? And all the secrets of the Anbu headquarters!" Zhang Hai commanded within the illusion.
The eyes of the several ANBU ninjas became glazed over, and they began to tell Zhang Hai everything they knew in detail.
Zhang Hai learned from them that S-level intelligence was indeed stored deep within the Dark Division headquarters, and that it required a special code to open. He also learned about all the secret routes and mechanisms within the Dark Division headquarters.
"What's the code?" Zhang Hai asked again.
However, just as the code was about to be uttered, a red light flashed in the eyes of one of the ANBU ninjas. His body trembled violently, then he let out a "uh..." sound, and a trickle of black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He had actually broken free of the genjutsu on his own, then bit his tongue and committed suicide!
Zhang Hai's pupils constricted sharply. He hadn't expected that these ANBU ninjas would have cursed marks on them! These cursed marks could force them to commit suicide at crucial moments to prevent the secret from being leaked.
He quickly checked the other ANBU ninjas and found that they too had been marked with cursed seals. He knew that it was impossible to get the code from these ANBU ninjas.
“A cursed seal…” Zhang Hai murmured softly, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes. He knew that this kind of cursed seal was Danzo’s specialty, but he didn’t expect that Kirigakure would also master this technique.
He quickly killed the other ANBU ninjas and then hid their bodies. He knew he had to change tactics now.
Meanwhile, deep within a secret room in an underground river, a fat man with a face full of fat sat cross-legged on the ground. His eyes were closed, and his entire body emanated a powerful aura of chakra.
Suddenly, the fat man's body trembled violently, and he opened his eyes abruptly, a glint of light flashing in them.
“The curse mark of an ANBU member has taken effect…” the fat man muttered to himself, a grave expression on his face. “It seems an intruder has infiltrated the ANBU headquarters!”
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately stood up, his obese body surprisingly agile. He strode out of the room and sped off in the direction where the curse had taken effect.
"These people are up to no good..." The fat man sneered. "I'd like to see who dares to break into the headquarters of the Hidden Mist Dark Division!"
He knew that the fact that the cursed seals of the Dark Guard members could take effect meant that the intruders were not to be underestimated. A fierce battle was about to unfold at the Dark Guard headquarters above this underground river!
The fat man quickly entered the hall, his sharp eyes scanning the surrounding members of the secret service. "Everyone assemble!" he shouted in a deep voice, his voice echoing through the hall like a booming bell.
Upon hearing this, all the members of the Dark Guard who were patrolling or organizing data immediately put down their work and quickly assembled in the hall. They were dressed in black uniforms and wore animal masks, and lined up neatly in the center of the hall.
"An intruder has infiltrated headquarters!" the fat man said in a deep voice. "The intruder is disguised as a member of the secret service and is trying to steal intelligence! Now, everyone, check the code! Anyone who can't give the code will be killed on the spot!"
Upon hearing this, the members of the secret service all wore solemn expressions. They knew that if an intruder were to infiltrate the headquarters, it would be a life-or-death test.
The verification of the cipher codes was exceptionally swift, with each member of the secret service reciting the code in a low voice. However, just as the verification was about to conclude, several members of the secret service suddenly looked at Zhang Hai.
Zhang Hai's heart sank. He knew his disguise had been exposed. Although he had imitated the uniform and mask of the Hidden Mist Division, he didn't know the code.
"You! The code!" A member of the secret service pointed at Zhang Hai and shouted sternly.
Zhang Hai didn't answer. His Sharingan activated instantly, the three-tomoe Sharingan spinning rapidly. He knew there was no time to hide his identity now.
"Illusion Blade Technique: Instant!"
"Puff puff!"
With three soft thuds, the three ANBU ninjas fell to the ground before they could even react. Their throats had been precisely severed, and their blood stained the ground.
Zhang Hai's attack was as swift as lightning, startling the surrounding members of the Dark Guard. They hadn't expected this intruder to be so powerful, capable of instantly killing three Dark Guard members.
"They're intruders! Kill them!"
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
The surrounding Anbu members roared and charged towards Zhang Hai. Their hands moved rapidly, forming hand seals, and various water-style ninjutsu rained down on him like a storm.
Water Dragon Bullet, Water Wall, Water Shark Bullet... all sorts of water-style ninjutsu appeared one after another, blocking all of Zhang Hai's escape routes.
The members of the Dark Guard in the hall also sprang into action. They collectively formed hand seals, and the moisture in the air rapidly condensed, creating enormous water dragons that roared towards Zhang Hai.
"Water Release: Collective Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
Dozens of water jets swirled in the air before suddenly rushing towards Zhang Hai. They blocked all of Zhang Hai's escape routes from every angle, the roar of the water deafening, and the entire hall seemed to tremble.
Zhang Hai felt an unprecedented crisis descending upon him.
