Naruto: A Thief’s Journey Starts with the Seven-Tails

The next day, outside Konoha Village, Chiyama Gekko had already set off on the journey to Taki no Kuni with his teammates.

"Hey, Suzaku, Shibi."

"Are we really just going to Taki no Kuni to conduct a scout this time?"

"If we end up in a fight, I'll be the first to run away."

Chiyama Gekko looked at the two beside him and couldn't help but tease.

Nara Suzaku was a special elite ninja of the Nara Clan. Well, actually, he was just a Chunin. However, since he knew secret techniques and was from the Nara Clan, he was given the title of special elite ninja.

Aburame Shibi, the father of Aburame Shino from the future Twelve Guardians, was also a special elite ninja. Humph, he was just a Chunin!

"You're lazier than I am."

"This mission is to keep tabs on Taki no Kuni's movements, but it's just a formality. After all, the location of Taki no Kuni is very hidden."

"It's a massive waterfall. Even if we want to get in, it'll be quite a challenge."

The Nara Clan, the deer in the Ino - Shika - Cho combination, served as the intellectual powerhouses of Konoha Village. Each clan member was a high - IQ commanding talent.

"What Suzaku said is right. Taki no Kuni is the only village outside the Five Great Villages that possesses a tailed beast."

"Although they didn't participate in the Second War, we still need to confirm the situation."

Chiyama Gekko of course knew all this, but Taki no Kuni had always refused to establish diplomatic relations with the outside world.

This time, their visit was probably just for the heck of it.

But, the Seven - Tails...

Chōmei, to be honest, he was a bit interested...

He wondered who the jinchuriki of the Seven - Tails was at this moment. If the Seven - Tails was still sealed, he didn't mind giving it a shot.

After all, every jinchuriki was an appealing existence.

And the most crucial point was that among all the tailed beasts, only the Seven - Tails could fly!

Chiyama Gekko thought to himself that he just lacked the ability to fly.

Taki no Kuni was located in the northwest of Konoha Village and was surrounded by a massive waterfall.

Its geographical location was excellent. It was a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

After two days of traveling, the three of them, including Chiyama Gekko, looked at the massive waterfall in the distance and showed a hint of shock.

After all, such a natural moat was really rare.

"So this is the waterfall that hides Taki no Kuni. It's really spectacular," Nara Suzaku exclaimed.

Aburame Shibi and Chiyama Gekko beside him nodded in agreement repeatedly.

"Chiyama, the rest of this will be on you."

"Um, okay... Huh? What do you mean? Why me?"

Suddenly, Chiyama Gekko sensed some malice. When he looked closely, sure enough, both Suzaku and Shibi had a look of watching the show.

"Chiyama, your Kekkei Genkai is the most suitable for scouting. So once we enter the waterfall, the scouting work will be yours."

"Taki no Kuni won't let strangers in."

"All we can do is create an opportunity for you."

Chiyama Gekko was stunned. Damn it, they were waiting for him right here.

"Isn't this the idea of that old Third Hokage?"

"He's just getting back at me! I caught him peeping last time! It must be him!"

Fuming, Chiyama Gekko immediately thought of his Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

This old bastard is definitely taking revenge on him.

At the same time, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was flipping through documents, sneezed dozens of times in a row.

Finally stopping, he complained with an annoyed look on his face, "It must be those two bastards, Chiyama Gekko and Jiraiya, badmouthing me!"

"They even exposed me during the last peeping incident! Humph! You little brat, Chiyama, go do the mission obediently!"

...

So, the person who knows oneself best is definitely a like-minded comrade.

The three peeping kings of Konoha Village know each other very well. Just like Chiyama Gekko knows that Jiraiya and Hiruzen Sarutobi are extremely lascivious.

Hiruzen Sarutobi knows full well that Chiyama Gekko is extremely spineless!

So, he specifically found a tailor-made mission for him, making him dance breakdance while stepping on landmines. What a cruel task!

"Watch your language, Chiyama."

"Alright, get ready to start the mission."

Chiyama Gekko felt terrible. Why did he have to go on a scouting mission!

"The ninjas of Takigakure must be on guard against the waterfall."

"So, I'll use the Shadow Tentacle Technique to trigger the waterfall's defense mechanism for you. Then you just go in directly."

Shibi's bugs will assist from the side. I'm counting on you, Chiyama."

Damn it! They even came up with a way to get in. These people are all so heartless!

Look, Suzaku wasted no time and had already brought a wild boar using the Shadow Tentacle Technique.

Looking at the struggling, bound wild boar, Chiyama Gekko was left speechless.

And Shibi also stretched out his right hand. Several bugs instantly landed on the wild boar.

"These bugs will help you get in."

"Go, Chiyama. We'll wait for you outside."

Looking at Suzaku and Shibi with sincere expressions on their faces.

Chiyama Gekko really wanted to say, "I really thank your whole family!"

Then he activated his Kekkei Genkai Touton and vanished from sight.

Just when the two were exclaiming in surprise, he very skillfully left a message on a tree beside them: Your father is here.

This was his backup plan. In case of an accident, he would make a decisive retreat.

Wasn't the reason he learned the Flying Thunder God Technique simply for the convenience of making a quick escape!

"Let's go. Control your pig and ram into that waterfall!"

There was nothing wrong with these words at all.

But to Suzaku's ears, it always sounded a bit malicious.

But after all, Chiyama Gekko had already vanished from sight, and he couldn't see him.

He could only control his shadow to slowly drag the wild boar under the waterfall.

As the wild boar touched the waterfall, it was as if a door had suddenly opened inside the waterfall.

Four or five figures suddenly appeared outside the waterfall.

"Hmm? A wild boar?"

"Why did a wild boar trigger the alarm?"

"Who knows? Forget it. At least it's a pig. We can have it for dinner tonight."

A group of Takigakure ninjas looked at the lively wild boar in front of them with a tinge of helplessness.

No one noticed that several bugs silently flew into the waterfall.

.

.

Inside Takigakure, on a tree.

"So this is Takigakure... What an interesting place."

"Hey, Shibi, are your bugs trustworthy? Don't let us get caught."

At this time, Chiyama Gekkō had already deactivated the Touton Mode. After all, he had already entered. Before taking further action, he still needed to recover some of his chakra.

Looking at the few small Bugs in front of him, Chiyama felt extremely helpless.

It has to be said that Takigakure, situated within the waterfall, seemed relatively developed.

Even when compared to Konoha Village, it was still quite a bit behind.

Suddenly, Chiyama Gekkō's gaze landed on a very peculiar place.

His eyes couldn't tear away immediately.

The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and he mumbled, "A hot spring bathhouse nestled within the waterfall... "

"It seems like a good place to gather information... "

"This kind of place is definitely Jiraiya's cup of tea. Now, it's on me!"

"If I don't go to hell, who will!"
