Pushing his speed to the limit, Kirito's body turned into a blurry black line.
In the blink of an eye, he had covered a distance of over a hundred meters. Below those houses.
The patrolling guards, on the other hand, could only feel a strange gust of wind suddenly rushing towards them.
When they raised their heads vigilantly, they did not even notice the shadow of a ghost.
…
In a dimly lit secret room, the Night Moon Clan's senior members were sitting.
"Third Brother, how's the preparation?" An old man with a head full of white hair, wearing a light gray robe, asked in a low voice.
"Great Elder, we have confirmed that Konoha's Hyuga Clan's Byakugan is about to arrive." A middle-aged man respectfully replied.
"Is that so … It seems that Konoha really didn't play any tricks this time …" The Great Elder muttered. In fact, the Cloud Ninja had expressed serious doubts about Konoha's submission of the Hyuga's Byakugan.
However, according to the latest information, Konoha's group, including the Hyuga's Byakugan, have already arrived at the Cloud Village's gate.
This matter can't be faked, and at this point, no matter what Konoha's conspiracy is, it doesn't make sense. The Hyuga's people are already at their door, no matter what happens, the Cloud Ninja will not let them escape the Lightning Country's borders.
"Konoha's Byakugan is finally going to fall into our hands …" Another middle-aged man said excitedly.
However, the Great Elder coldly snorted, "Only in the hands of the Night Moon Clan!"
"Great Elder … Are you sure we want to do this?" The previous middle-aged man asked with slight hesitation.
"Humph!
For the prosperity of our clan, we must get the Byakugan!
The legendary Byakugan has the ability to see through long distances and 360 degrees without blind spots. With our clan's Kekkei Genkai, it is simply perfect!
After many years of training, coupled with the injection of various external forces, Clan Leader's strength has reached the Kage level. If we get the Byakugan, Clan Leader's strength will surpass the Kage level!
At that time, even that bastard Raikage won't need to be afraid!
Our Cloud Village is a village that advocates strength, as long as the strength surpasses the Raikage, anyone can replace him. "The old man said with a fanatical smile.
"As long as we are able to obtain that pair of eyes and refine them to a proficient level, this Lightning Country will be able to become a God.
Who else dares to go against the Night Moon Clan?
At that time, even Raikage won't be able to do anything.
Even the Lord Patriarch could defeat him.
Humph!
If it weren't for the suppression of our clan by the Thunder Shadow Clan, we wouldn't have been able to survive.
The development of our Night Moon Clan.
I'm afraid that's far more than that! "The old man slammed his palm heavily on the table, and his face was filled with unwillingness.
In response to the old man's angry words.
The others also had a deep expression and could only hurriedly nod their heads.
"Oh, that's right. Have the elite members of the clan been assembled?" The old man asked coldly.
"Yes."
"Well …" Nodding slightly, the old man tapped his dry palm on the table and suddenly said: "Is there any movement from Konoha?"
"No.
So far, there hasn't been any movement in Konoha. We have spies watching the ninjas in Konoha. Once these people leave the village, we will receive the information in time. "The previous middle-aged man reported.
"Is that so? It seems that Konoha is really going to give up.
But in order to avoid any trouble, we will take action tonight. "The old man frowned and said coldly.
"Yes."
The middle-aged man responded respectfully and slightly hesitated: "Great Elder, you don't need to think about it anymore. Have you decided to do this?"
"Well, I know." The old man nodded.
The old man's eyes flashed with a touch of gloominess as he said coldly: "There is no need to hesitate. We will go out tonight and use our clan's Kekkei Genkai. Even the Raikage can't stop us from taking the little girl. After we get her, we will immediately dig out the Byakugan, and then dispose of the body and destroy the evidence!"
Hearing this.
Several people in the room nodded.
They all nodded in agreement. Even if they were asked to dig out a young girl's eyes and then cruelly kill her, it would be a matter of course for them to have a clear conscience.
Clearly, this wasn't the first time the Night Moon Clan had done such a vicious thing.
"Okay.
The Raikage still needs me to go out.
You will act according to the plan later … "The old man said in a deep voice.
"Humph.
The Raikage … Just you wait!
Sooner or later, my Night Moon Clan will rule over the Cloud Ninja Empire. Let's see who will be the stray dog then! "In the dim room, the old man's face was twisted with malevolence.
At this time, a white light fell on the Night Moon Clan's mansion.
"Boom!"
What followed was a deafening explosion of thunder!
"What?!
How can there be thunder in this weather? "
Under the puzzled gazes of the Night Moon Clan, a figure slowly emerged from the ground where the lightning bolt struck and the dust billowed.
"I'm sorry, Night Moon Clan. I think your ambitions will end here today."
An indifferent voice suddenly rang out in the quiet hall at an inappropriate time. A black robe strangely flashed to the center of the hall. Under the black robe, a pair of dark and cold eyes glanced at the Night Moon Clan First Elder, whose expression had suddenly turned gloomy.
