After school, the basement of the teaching building.

"Yes, that's right, it's the one you drew!"

When the girl in the mirror saw Chen Yue's "work" completed in her notebook, she showed a surprise expression. The vivid pattern was exactly the same as what she saw at the delivery location that night.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at painting, just like you've seen it with your own eyes!"

Chen Yue was a little embarrassed by the praise of the spirit in the mirror. Actually, compared with the real boss, the gap between her was still very obvious. She felt that the main reason why the spirit in the mirror was so happy might be that her painter formed a sharp contrast with Gu Yun of the abstract school.

It was not until she reproduced the mark based on the description of the spirit in the mirror that Chen Yue deeply realized what Gu Yun's painting could attract everyone's interpretation.

The so-called interpretation sometimes refers to the talk of art and soul, and sometimes it may be just because they do not understand what Gu Yun painted.

"Well, as a beginner, your drawings are pretty good."

Gu Yun also made professional comments on Chen Yue's works, but this commentary attitude made Chen Yue inexplicably a little angry.

If she hadn't come here to draw it again according to the description of the spirit in the mirror, the most important information would have been ignored!

"I've seen this mark before."

Chen Yue did not want to debate with Gu Yun in the field of painting. She directly expressed her conclusion - in fact, what the spirit in the mirror described was not just a black snake-shaped mark, but behind the snake-shaped mark, there was also a black pendant.

If she hadn't drawn it in sequence, she would have overlooked this crucial detail.

"Look, if you remove the black snake-shaped pattern, the mark will become like this."

Gu Tiantian carefully wiped off the black snake in the circular pattern, and then completed the missing part of the circular pattern according to the missing part. "This is the family emblem of Iga Ninja."

In fact, the marks of each ninja village in "X Ninja" were not made out of thin air. In the history of N City, Iga Ninja will wear this mark that looks like the shape of a Fengmo Shuriken, and many people will tattoo similar marks directly on their bodies.

When explaining the past of Iga Ninja to them, the teacher showed them the mark on the back of his hands.

Perhaps the history of Iga Ninja has ended long ago, but the same marks will be passed down from generation to generation in different ways.

City N is a city that values ​​bloodline and inheritance, and this inheritance will never be easily cut off.

The current black snake-shaped mark is like combining the emblem of a certain organization with Iga Ninja's Jiawei.

"No wonder Iga Hikaru has set his sights on them."

It was not until Chen Yue saw the mark of the Iga family that she suddenly realized. She also realized that although Iga Hikaru showed an active cooperation attitude in front of them, she was likely to have concealed a lot of news from them.

For example, what they are going to deal with is not an attacker holding a demon sword, but a mysterious organization that has existed for a long time.

And, this may involve internal struggles of the Iga family.

"Brother Gu Yun, let's go to Iga Hikaru to ask clearly. He might know which organization the black snake is marked!"

………………………………

Meanwhile, outside campus.

The high school boy carrying a heavy schoolbag walked into a secluded alley until there was no one around, and he stopped and placed his schoolbag on the steps.

"You've followed you all the way, you can show up, right?"

Before he finished speaking, a figure followed closely and landed in front of the boy.

Since the end of the Iga family's civil war, the confrontation between ninjas has not occurred for a long time, but even Iga Hikaru did not expect that the other party would come so quickly, and even wanted to start in broad daylight.

He was sure that the automatic pencil-core box contained not lead cores, but some kind of weapon.

When the ninjas met, there was not a long time, nor too much words.

Before Iga Hikaru could stand still, a few thin needles attacked him from all directions.

These are not ordinary fine needles, and poison must be applied to them.

However, for a senior ninja, avoiding these hidden weapons is a basic skill that he has to start training since childhood.

After holding his breath and concentrating, the scene in front of him seemed to suddenly slow down.

The boy only saw a afterimage breaking through the needle rain. Before he could react, he passed by him.

Iga Hikaru's eyes were stern, and a blood rain drew out of his hand in the air. The victory and defeat between ninjas were often in a moment. Although he had many things to ask the other party, those people would never leave him such an opportunity.

Blood splattered onto the wall, and the boy's body stood there for a moment, and fell heavily to the ground.

The bright red blood fainted on the thin ice on the ground, and Iga Hikaru simply put away the kunai. He knew that it would be irrelevant to those people to solve a small man, and he had to try to find out the high school student kidnapped by this rebel ninja.

Of course, if you consider the worst, the abducted student may have died at this moment.

Iga Hikaru clenched his fists.

If this is true, it would be his dereliction of duty. As the descendant of the Zong family, he did not even notice when the other party had intervened in the campus.

He was just now aware of the fleeting murderous aura in the classroom and noticed the existence of this person.

Thinking of this, Iga Hikaru bent down and rolled up the sleeves of the dead rebel ninja. He quickly noticed the black snake-shaped pattern on the other party's right forearm. Behind the poisonous snake, it was the family emblem passed down from generation to generation by Iga Ninja.

Undoubtedly, Iga Hikaru dialed a number.

"I found a rebellious man here and I've died."

"It's done well, and we happened to find some clues here."

A female voice came from the microphone, "The black snake mark, they are indeed here."

"…You met them too?"

Upon hearing this news, Iga Hikari's eyelids pounded violently for a few times. For some reason, he suddenly had some unknown premonition in his heart.

Over the years, Iga ninjas have been chasing these "ghosts", but they rarely meet with them. These rebel ninjas seem to know their whereabouts in advance, and can successfully avoid their eyes and ears every time.

However, not long after arriving in City X, these ghostly colleagues rushed to appear in front of them?

What is the reason for this?

"Something is not right, you guys have to be young..."

The call suddenly hung up, and the busy voice that followed made Iga Hikaru feel a little shaking.

Just as he was waving, the "dead corpse" lying on the ground suddenly came out. In addition to the busy voice, Iga Hikaru also heard a slight "sizzling" sound.

Looking in the sound, the slowly evaporated smoke appeared in Iga Hikari's sight - the blood that splashed on the wall and fainted on the ice began to evaporate quietly. He immediately looked at the wound on the neck of the "corpse". Under the cut skin and flesh, it was not a neck bone, but a black substance that emitted a irritating smell.

The smell was initially suppressed by the smell of blood, and it became more and more obvious after the smell of blood dissipated.

"Bang!"

Immediately afterwards, a playful onomatopoeia rang in Iga Hikari's ears.

He immediately blocked his chest with his arms, but the sudden shock wave still overturned him to the ground. In the chaos, a sticky liquid splashed all over him.

Puppeting?

Iga Hikaru was shocked. He had read this skill in ancient books in the family, but the orthodox puppet technique had long been halted and has now become a legend in the mouths of the elders. The old people seemed to be accustomed to tracing the glory of the Iga family in this way.

It's just... there's no burning pain, no tinnitus caused by the explosion,

Iga Hikaru looked closely and saw that what splashed on him was a substance similar to blood, and his sleeves were steaming like the ground and walls around him.

At the same time, an irresistible sleepiness came towards him.

Under fatigue, Iga Hikaru saw a man wearing a ninja suit and covering his face and unable to see clearly, slowly walking towards him.

"Oh, the genius of the Zong family is just like this."

The visitor looked down at Iga Hikari, "I thought you could see through my art."

He bent down and picked up the "corpse" that became unrecognizable due to the explosion. Iga Hikaru finally saw the whole picture of the "corpse". The inside of the "corpse" was made of black metal, but it was wrapped on the metal, but it looked like real flesh and blood.

Even the smell of blood in the air is like this.

"Don't show such a surprised expression, I can't help but be proud."

As the ninja in black spoke, he put his right hand on the black humanoid skeleton like a show. Under Iga Hikari's astonished eyes, the flesh and blood that had become skinny due to the explosion was repaired and reorganized at a speed visible to the naked eye. Within a minute, the "corpse" returned to its original appearance.

The skin cut by kunai has recovered as before, and even its vitality seems to have returned to this body.

When the black-clothed ninja let go, the "corpse" came alive again.

And this is definitely not the ninjutsu of the Iga family.

Although it looks similar to the puppet technique described in classics, it looks more like a product based on the puppet theory.

Not only is this not ninjutsu, but it seems that it is no longer a power that humans can control.

The sleepiness is getting heavier and heavier.

"Your ninjutsu is long out of date."

A kunai appeared in the hand of the black ninja. He slowly aimed Kunai at Iga Hikaru's heart. "The reason why we don't come to you is because the sect family has now fallen to a sad level - goodbye forever, go with your companions with peace of mind."

The next moment, Kyuuba straightened into Iga Hikaru's heart.
