However, this is also directly related to the fact that the nobles such as the Daimyo of the Bear Country do not want the Star Ninja Village to become stronger.

Regarding the Ninja Village, the daimyo of each country have their own set of opinions. On the one hand, they place their hope in the power of the Ninja Village, and on the other hand, they need to limit the development of the Ninja Village to balance the situation.

But things are different now. The Daimyo of the Bear Country thinks that his cronies, Akekage, have completely taken control of the Star Ninja Village.

Therefore, after the ninjas from the Kingdom of Oni attacked the Hoshi Ninja Village and disguised themselves as Ninjas from the Hoshi Ninja Village, in less than a week, the Daimyo of the Bear Country sent three batches of sufficient development materials, allowing Akage to vigorously build the Hoshi Ninja Village.

Ayane naturally accepted this with pleasure.

Although the logistics of the Kingdom of Ghosts are sufficient, how can we turn away the materials that were sent to us for free?

According to the military expansion plan drawn up by the Kingdom of Demons, building the Star Ninja Village into a complete military fortress is a key part of the plan.

The construction project is naturally the top priority, but there is another reason why Ayane is here.

That is to assimilate the hundreds of ninjas and countless villagers in the Star Ninja Village and turn them into one of our own.

This requires ideological educators from the Kingdom of Ghosts to come here in person to offer courses.

A large number of craftsmen began to build large-scale construction projects in the forest and mountains surrounding the Star Ninja Village, and they continued to build buildings.

If we continue at this rate, we should be able to build the prototype of a military fortress in three to five months.

After all, all the buildings in the original Star Ninja Village need to be renovated, and the territory also needs to be expanded on a large scale, so the time spent will naturally increase.

With the Star Ninja Village in their hands, the Army of the Kingdom of Demons once again sent 500 ninjas into the Bear Country in batches and gathered here at the Star Ninja Village.

Accompanying them were several ninjas from the Uzumaki clan, who used powerful barrier techniques to envelop the forest area centered on the Star Ninja Village in a barrier to prevent attacks by wild beasts and enemies.

Including the 300 ninjas originally dispatched, there are now nearly 800 ninja units stationed in Star Ninja Village.

This number of people has exceeded the number of ninjas in the Star Ninja Village. The quality of the ninjas is naturally far superior to that of the Star Ninja Village, so the protection here is airtight.

Since the development of the Kingdom of Ghosts, there are more than 7,000 ninjas in total. With 800 ninjas invested in the Kingdom of Bears, the domestic armed forces are still abundant.

With the help of these ninjas, it can be said that the pressure on Ayane has been greatly reduced, and she no longer has to deal with various chores every day.

She just wanted to finish the matter in the Star Ninja Village as soon as possible and then return to the Kingdom of Demons.

Just when Ayane was thinking about returning to the Land of Ghosts, there was a knock on the door.

Ayane was in a makeshift office. After hearing the knock on the door, Ayane said to the ninja outside the door: "Come in."

A ninja opened the door and walked in from the outside, with a solemn expression, as if something important had happened.

"What's wrong? Are those Star Ninjas resisting again?"

Ideological education is certainly not something that can be accomplished overnight.

There are some people who are not afraid of death everywhere, and there are many such hard-core people in the Star Ninja Village.

Therefore, Ayane's first reaction was this.

"That's not what happened. The people from the barrier team discovered that a ninja was approaching the village."

The ninja replied.

"Ninja? How many people are there in total? Have you confirmed their identities?"

Ayane straightened her expression slightly. At this time, a strange ninja appeared. Don't be careless about any clues.

"The identities of the other two cannot be determined, but one of them is Orochimaru, one of the Sannin of Konoha."

This ninja looked serious.

The names of these three people are like thunder to many people in the ninja world.

Although the military power of the Kingdom of Demons has skyrocketed, it still cannot be careless when facing ninjas of the Sannin level.

What's more, Orochimaru's strength is recognized as the strongest among the three ninjas.

An all-round ninja with no flaws in the ninja realm.

Facing a ninja of this level, it is natural to be vigilant.

Moreover, Orochimaru, who betrayed Konoha and disappeared from the ninja world for nearly two years, suddenly visited the Star Ninja Village at this time, and I am afraid that the person who came here was evil.

"Orochimaru?"

Ayane lowered her head, pondered for a moment, and then made a decision.

"Let me go and take a look in person. The village is on level one alert."

Orochimaru is not an ordinary ninja. Apart from himself, there is no other ninja here who can guarantee that he can defeat Orochimaru in a single fight.

What's more, there are two other people beside Orochimaru, and I'm afraid they are not simple ninjas.

"yes."

"Hey, Orochimaru, why do you come to a small village like this? Aren't you going to take me to see your leader?"

Following Orochimaru and Scorpion, Beilihu followed closely behind them and asked.

"Scorpion needs something from the Star Ninja Village to use as a material for making a puppet, and then he will take you to see the leader. Anyway, you are not in a hurry now, are you?"

Orochimaru turned his head slightly, smiled at Beilihu and said.

"Does a small village like this also have treasures?"

As a former member of the Konoha ninja, Beilihu naturally did not like the ninja villages of these small and remote countries.

He is not a fledgling ninja in the ninja world. He has also experienced the second and third ninja wars and has been to many places in the ninja world.

He had also imitated the Ninja Village in the small country in the past.

Compared with the almost urban ninja villages like Konoha, many ninja villages in small countries are just like the countryside of the Fire Country, maybe even worse.

Several small wooden houses are connected in a row, which is the ninja school.

The hospital is also very simple, with only one or two medical ninjas, and the medical equipment is old and shabby, giving people a sense of poverty and backwardness.

This is his consistent impression of the small country's Ninja Village.

Of course, there are also more powerful ninja villages in small countries, such as the Rain Hidden Village in the Country of Rain, and the Kusakure Village in the Country of Grass. The villages are large in size and have a large population.

Scorpion, who was slowly leading the way, said in an indifferent tone: "Although it is a small village, there is a treasure in the village. It is said to be a meteorite that fell on the earth from outside the sky. It was picked up by the first generation Xingying of Xing Ninja Village and became

It is a sacred object of the Star Ninja Village. It is said that the secret technique of the Star Ninja Village, the Peacock Magic Technique, was also cultivated based on this meteorite."

Beilihu didn't care about the meteorites. He had no interest in them. He was only interested in the powerful blood successor ninjas.

In order for his Onigaura Technique to take shape, he needs to plunder five blood inheritance boundaries to form a complete body.

Once he becomes a perfect body, by that time, no ninja in the entire ninja world will look down upon him.

Becoming the strongest ninja in the ninja world, respected by countless people like the god of ninja back then, is just around the corner.

"how long it takes?"

"Don't worry, I hate waiting for others, and I hate waiting for others. It will be over soon."

Scorpio answered like this.

"I heard that there are hundreds of ninjas in Star Ninja Village, and they are not weak. Is it okay for you to be alone?"

Beiliuhu asked.

Of course I'm not worried about Xie's safety, but if Xie died like that, it would be a waste of time to bury him.

"It doesn't matter, you don't need to do anything, I can solve it by myself."

Hundreds of ninjas, in Scorpion's eyes, are just hundreds of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

It wouldn't be a problem for him to kill them all by himself.

However, his goal is just the meteorite in the Star Ninja Village. It would be best if the Star Ninja Village was more knowledgeable.

He doesn't like to waste time on meaningless things.

Although his body has begun to stop growing and time can be said to be endless, waiting for and being waited for by others makes him feel irritated.

This is a bad habit I developed in Sunagakure Village when I was a child, and I probably won't be able to change it in the future.

Scorpio doesn't intend to change either.

At this moment, Orochimaru suddenly stopped, and a snake emerged from the grass, wrapped around Orochimaru's body and crawled onto Orochimaru's arm, sticking out its tongue as if to convey some message.

"What's wrong?"

Scorpio turned his head and glanced at Orochimaru, and also stopped.

"It tells me that there is a perception barrier around us, and our traces have been noticed."

Orochimaru replied to Scorpion.

"Really? I didn't expect that a ninja village in such a remote small country would actually have a special barrier ninja. But it doesn't matter. I didn't plan to sneak in, so I'll just attack from the front entrance."

Scorpion thought for a moment and didn't care about the message Orochimaru conveyed.

"Don't be too careless. I always feel that something is not right here. It is a little different from the Star Ninja Village in my impression."

Orochimaru frowned. Barrier techniques are not common in the ninja world. They can even be said to be the same as seal techniques. They are powerful techniques that few people are proficient in. They are basically monopolized by the ninja villages of the five major countries.
