After all, there are always some civilians who can't stand the oppression and want to rebel.

The Jashin Cult is the only organization that can help them take revenge on these high-ranking ninjas.

Behind a bush beside a mountain road.

Three "refugees" who had just walked out of the town removed their Transformation Jutsu, emitted a burst of white smoke, and transformed into three ninjas dressed as Kirigakure Ninjas.

Among them, the young man who was leading the group and carrying a strangely shaped sword on his back shook his head helplessly.

"It's fake news again. Let's go look for it in the next place."

Hearing his words, the boy without eyebrows among the three scratched his head in annoyance and complained.

"Rumors about the Jashin Cult are everywhere, as if there are resistance forces everywhere in the Land of Hot Water, but it turns out that it's all fake news!"

At this time, the last girl with brown-red hair spoke to comfort him.

"After all, it is a covert organization. If we could find it so easily, it would have been wiped out by those barbarians from the Kumogakure Village long ago."

After each of the three people finished speaking, they looked at each other and sighed deeply in helplessness.

These three people were the ones who were ordered to come to the Land of Hot Water to search for the Jashin Cult: Terumi Mei, Momochi Zabuza, and Hozuki Shingetsu.

Since Kaito, who is the reserve Mizukage, and Ao, who is already the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, are both too unsuitable to go out of the village to carry out ordinary missions.

The task of coming to the Land of Hot Water to seize the secret techniques of the Jashin Cult naturally fell on the three people, Hozuki Shingetsu, who had once had contact with the Jashin Cult.

And Hozuki Shingetsu, who was promoted to Jonin some time ago, is the captain of this team.

Zabuza secretly glanced at the 'Explosive Blade: Shibuki' carried on the back of Hozuki Shingetsu.

Although 'Explosive Blade: Shibuki' was not his goal, but as one of the seven ninja swords, he still showed a hint of envy in his eyes.

Of course, Zabuza would definitely not admit it, and there was a hint of disdain in his words.

"Shingetsu, you are a new ninja swordsman and the leader of this mission, can't you think of a solution?"

When Hozuki Shingetsu heard this, he rolled his eyes, but after looking at the small short blade tied with steel wire behind Zabuza, he didn't bother to argue with him.

In fact, it was somewhat of luck that the 'Explosive Blade: Shibuki' fell on his head.

Originally, after the Explosive Blade: Shibuki was returned to Kirigakure by Konohagakure, a new ninja sword wielder would definitely be selected from among the village's jonin.

However, the 'Explosive Blade: Shibuki', a ninja sword that can be considered a unique weapon, cannot be mastered without long-term targeted training.

It is even possible that the sword user may accidentally kill or injure himself during practice.

To be honest, Kaito didn't think much of this ninja sword.

So, following the advice of Elder Genji, he handed the matter over to the Hozuki clan to handle.

The Hozuki clan, who possess the Hydrification Jutsu, is more suitable for this ninja sword, whether from the perspective of practice or temporary use.

However, what was different from what Kaito thought was that the patriarch of the Hozuki clan, Hozuki Sangetsu, did not choose to become a ninja swordsman.

Kaito doesn't know whether he also looks down on the Explosive Blade: Shibuki, or if he wants to make friends with him, the future Mizukage.

The right to use 'Explosive Blade: Shibuki' was given to the new jonin in the clan, Hozuki Shingetsu, who had a good relationship with Kaito.

This also led to the originally inconspicuous Hozuki Shingetsu, who had just become a Jonin, becoming one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

Fortunately, he is a 17-year-old Jonin, and he has inherited various secret techniques from the Hozuki clan, so he can be considered an absolute genius.

No one else questioned the fact that Hozuki Shingetsu became a ninja swordsman.

Just when these three people were still struggling over whether or not to continue searching one place after another following the clues of the rumors.

Zabuza, who had the sharpest sense, suddenly stretched out his hand to signal the two to be silent.

The two of them followed Zabuza's gaze and saw that on the distant mountain road, an eight-man Kumogakure ninja team was running forward at a rapid speed and with great momentum.

The three people hiding behind the bushes held their breath and watched carefully.

Not until the eight Kumogakure ninjas disappeared from sight did the three of them look at each other, and Mei spoke first.

"Why do you think the bastards from Kumogakure are here?"

When this sentence was said, she was actually no longer thinking about it.

The three of them said in unison.

"The Jashin Cult!" x3

The reason why Hozuki Shingetsu and the other two were so sure was not because they were searching for the Jashin Cult themselves and their thinking was limited.

It was because the three of them had disguised themselves as refugees persecuted by Kumogakure to gather information.

After officially learning that there was a resistance organization nearby that had recently succeeded in killing the Kumogakure Ninja, they came to the nearby villages and towns under the pretext of wanting to join the Jashin Cult.

At this moment, coincidentally, a team of aggressive Kumogakure ninjas appeared here. It was very likely that the other party was following the news and came here to carry out retaliation.

"They are obviously on their way with a purpose. Regardless of whether their target is the Jashin Cult or not, we should follow them first!"

As the temporary captain, Hozuki Shingetsu began to give orders directly.

"Zabuza, perception ninjutsu."

There was no need for him to say more, as Zabuza on the side had already closed his eyes, completed the seal, and pointed to the ground with one hand.

"Come on, follow me."

Seeing that Zabuza had locked onto his target, the two of them set out to follow without saying a word.

In the dense forest, the three of them followed carefully for less than half an hour until they stopped in front of a slightly empty and hidden valley.

At this moment, there is no need for Zabuza to continue leading the way.

The noisy shouting and killing sounds in the distance have already pointed out the direction to the three of them.

Looking at the camp that looked like an ordinary bandit's lair, Hozuki Shingetsu grinned and asked.

"Do you think Kumogakure will be kind enough to help the Land of Hot Water deal with the bandits?"
