During the mission, he might fight against the Mist Ninja. For this, Uchiha Tatsu had already prepared for it.
But in his estimation, it should be after arriving at Yoneka Town or finding Ryoma, not before.
As the Third Hokage said, the Mist Ninja wanted to achieve a certain goal through the son of the former Daimyo. But the normal approach is to stay by the other person's side, rather than suddenly appearing in the forest of the Country of Fire.
Moreover, this Mist Ninja team happened to be encountered by the first team on this mission. You know, Himeji's detection range is only one kilometer, and this forest is more than one kilometer.
Unless it was a deliberate ambush, the probability of such an encounter was almost zero.
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Kirigakure sent a large number of ninjas to ambush in this forest, waiting for the Konoha ninjas...
But this is not a conspiracy, but a massive attack.
But now Konoha is invincible and has powerfully defeated the two villages of Suna and Iwa. The status of the ninja world has been consolidated again. No one will provoke the tiger at this juncture.
Therefore, the whole thing is weird when you think about it carefully.
This is like a thousand-year-old villain who has been trying to get into the finals every time. This time he suddenly stopped being stubborn and took out a vss gun to start. And the target he chose was the person who always eats chicken...
There is only one possibility in this case - he cheated.
I don’t know if Kirigakure is cheating, but even if he is, what can he do
If you don't show up for the Second Ninja War, what's the point of playing dirty tricks after a war like this
To put it bluntly, even if the coup succeeds, it will not have any substantial impact on Konoha, let alone impossible.
The only purpose is to disgust Konoha, but no one except Ohnoki would do such a meaningless feud.
What's more, there is no conflict between Konoha and Kirigakure. The third Mizukage would only do such a thing unless he was kicked in the head.
And the most inconsistent thing about the whole thing is that Kirigakure's captain... is actually talking about the Kaguya clan.
Can you believe it? !
You know, the Kaguya clan is famous for its violent temper. Would the Third Mizukage hand over such a secret mission to a violent maniac
Of course, there will be others in any family, but judging from the previous confrontation, Uchiha Tatsumi can conclude that the opponent is not a ninja with enhanced intelligence, but a fighting maniac bathed in Saiyan blood.
So, is this person sent here because he is afraid that the mission will fail
In short, there were many doubts about the whole matter. Seeing the sky gradually getting darker, Uchiha Tatsu took Mikoto and Himeji and set up camp a little far away from the battlefield.
After patrolling the surroundings for a while and setting up many traps and psychic snakes, he returned with a Bidiao.
"Here, this is tonight's dinner." Uchiha Tatsu handed the prey in his hand to Mikoto.
Mikoto nodded, then took the Bi Diao like a little daughter-in-law, and turned around to handle the food nearby.
Himeji, who was setting up a tent, saw this scene and couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you say yesterday not to light open fires near Miwa Town?"
"Yes." Uchiha Tatsu nodded, then used Earth Release to create a bench and sat on it.
"So you want to ask, why did I ask Mikoto to make dinner instead of eating solid food?"
"Yeah." Himeji didn't stop moving his hands, and at the same time he tilted his ears to listen to the boy's explanation.
Uchiha Tatsumi smiled and said: "Because I haven't encountered the enemy before, I don't know the situation here, so I have to be cautious.
But it's different now. We are fighting such a big fluctuation. If there are still mist ninjas around, they have already discovered us, and there is no need to hide anymore.
What's more, I want them to attack now. How can they find us without leaving any traces! "
Soon, he explained all the doubtful points about this mission.
Himeji said thoughtfully: "You want to test the reality."
"Yes." Uchiha Chen nodded. "I have placed a large number of psychic snakes around. If there are many mist ninjas, we will evacuate. If there are not many, we will deal with them directly.
In short, it won’t be a problem to light a bonfire tonight. If you can live a more comfortable life, why should you eat dry food, right? "
Himeji hummed softly, and then continued to set up the tent. Only now did she realize that she still had a lot to learn.
But... I am obviously three years older than the boy, why is there such a big gap
"By the way, Himeji, I have something to ask you." After a while, Uchiha Tatsu suddenly said.
"Well, what's the matter?"
"Do you know the ninja from the Kaguya clan just now? I think he is at least an elite jounin, and his status in the Kaguya clan should be high..."
Himeji thought about it carefully, then shook his head and said: "I don't know. Although our Hyuga clan and Kaguya clan have been friends for generations, it was more before the Warring States Period.
Since the establishment of the village, the exchanges between the two sides have not been so frequent. The last time I saw the ninjas of the Kaguya clan was five years ago. "
"five years ago?"
"Well, a family ceremony was held at that time, and then my eldest brother was appointed as the young patriarch of the clan, and the second brother was appointed as the young patriarch of the branch family... They came to congratulate."
"Is that so?" Uchiha Tatsumi squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then continued to ask:
"By the way, why have your Hyuga family been friends with such a violent family for generations?"
Himeji shook his head: "I'm not very sure. This is the ancestral motto of the family for generations. The Kaguya family also has similar ancestral precepts. Does your family not have it?"
Uchiha Chen scratched his hair in embarrassment, and then smiled: "Yes, destroy the Senju clan."
“…”
"Haha, it's not difficult to understand. After all, the two races have been fighting for thousands of years. It was only after the village was built that this hatred slowly dissipated."
While the two were talking, Mikoto, who was dealing with Habidiao, came over. She placed the food on the shelf and sat down next to Uchiha Tatsu.
Immediately afterwards, she took out a scroll from the ninja bag. After opening the seal, a large bag of specially made materials appeared in her hand.
Uchiha Tatsumi stopped talking and quickly used the fire escape seal to control the amount of chakra and raise a ball of flame on the ground.
Mikoto used branches to make sculptures and placed them on the bonfire to bake. As time went by, the golden color and overflowing aroma made Uchiha Chen, who had been hungry for a while, swallow his saliva.
At this time, Himeji, who had set up the tent, came over. After washing his hands with water, he sat down next to Mikoto.
"Okay, dinner is ready."
Although it was just a simple barbecue meal, Mikoto had a lot of skills that she had practiced for many years. Anyway, Uchiha Tatsu will feel uncomfortable if he doesn't eat her cooking for a day.
Therefore, Shengshu often said in the past that this is a disease of wealth and must be cured!
However, Uchiha Tatsun ignored such sour words.
After all, Rope Tree is a standard lemon person.
