Konoha’s 50 Years

Chapter 96: A ninja appears suddenly

Views:

At dusk, the sun slanted like a dull old man.

The four shadows on the tree were stretched out. The dusk in July still has a hint of dryness.

The wind blew through the mountains and fields, and the orange dusk was very peaceful.

My feet stepped on the branches, and as the leaves swayed, the sunlight seemed to sway with it.

A group of ninjas wearing yellow ninja uniforms kept jumping between the big trees.

There were four people in total, three men and one woman.

The leader was a ninja wearing black-rimmed glasses. He wears a turban and has a mole under his left eye.

The remaining three people are all teenagers.

At a glance, it can be seen that these people are all ninjas, but none of them are wearing forehead protectors.

Sakata Jounin is the leader of this team.

Their team has been stationed at the border with the army for a week.

Rumors of war have been circulating around for a long time.

It's just that the village's senior officials have always allowed such rumors to go unchecked.

The Kingdom of Rain and the Kingdom of Grass have reached a stalemate.

Now the war only needs a trigger. Most of the ninjas in the village were excited now. They have survived in this poor soil for too long. They desperately need fertile land.

A few days ago, their team suddenly received an A-level mission.

In the mission, Sakamoto was ordered to take his team from the Kingdom of Kawa into the Kingdom of Fire.

They were going to find a group of ninjas from the Country of Rain in the Country of Fire.

It may sound complicated, especially in today's tense environment.

A careless move could trigger a ninja war.

Therefore, their team put on clothes without the Suna Ninja Village logo and crossed the Land of Sichuan to the Land of Fire.

Several days of running around had made several people very tired.

The boy on the far left, with black hair, couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Sakamoto, the intelligence shows that the other party has two jounin."

"Are we enough?" He looked around.

After all, except for Mr. Sakamoto and one jounin, the rest of this team are all genin, and one of them is a reconnaissance ninja.

Sakamoto Jonin at the front smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. This mission involves more than just our team."

"There is another team that set off before us. So, after you find those ninjas, just send the signal. There are no people around here, so you don't have to worry about being discovered by the ninjas from the Land of Fire."

"and-"

Teacher Sakamoto pushed up his black-rimmed glasses, and then said in a confident tone, "Genin Kimura, you have to keep one thing in mind. I can easily solve two jonins by myself, no matter who the other party is."

"... Mr. Sakamoto, why are you so confident?" Kimura continued to ask, but the admiration in his heart could no longer be concealed.

"If you choose the path of ninja, the road under your feet is very narrow, and you may feel uneasy. Then your self-confidence gradually begins to waver. At this time, if you don't even become confident in yourself, then death is not far away from you."

"and-"

A glint flashed in Sakamoto's eyes, "I'm Sakamoto!"

Kimura has turned into a super fanboy at this time.

Sakamoto glanced out of the corner of his eye and realized that the student on his right was a little unusual.

So he asked, "Watanabe, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing, Mr. Sakamoto. It's just that the environment here is really humid. I feel like I'm going to get wet." Watanabe complained.

"I've only been here for a few days, and I feel uncomfortable all over. Even though it's sunny now, it's still the driest in our village. I hate water!" Watanabe continued.

"Tch, this is nothing. If you go to the Land of Rain, it rains every day." Kimura replied.

"So, the weather in our Sunagakure Village is the best. Not only is it dry, but you don't need to take a shower. I hate water." Watanabe thought for a while and said seriously.

For a moment, several people nodded in agreement. It felt good not to have to take a shower.

"By the way, Mr. Sakamoto, have you been to Konoha?" Watanabe asked.

Sakamoto, who was leading the way at the front, pushed up his black-rimmed glasses and was about to answer.

His little fan Kimura said matter-of-factly, "Of course I have been. Are there any places in these five major countries that Mr. Sakamoto has not been to?"

"How can it be?"

"How is that impossible? It's the Hokage Building. Sakamoto-sensei wants to see it. It's very casual."

Watanabe turned into a super fan boy.

"Ahem, okay." Teacher Sakamoto said, after all, this pretense was a bit too much.

"You two guys! We are currently on a mission in the Kingdom of Fire."

"The information this time was obtained through a lot of hard work in the village. We are determined to get this gold mine."

"The daimyo has always wanted to deprive us of our finances. Obtaining this gold mine can greatly relieve our financial pressure. So, you must take it seriously."

Suddenly the girl at the back who had been silent raised her hand.

"What's wrong, Manase. Did you find anything?" Sakamoto Jonin asked.

"In front, chakra, ninja." The girl's words were brief.

The girl spoke in this style, but all three people understood her.

Sakamoto Jounin began to raise his hand to signal.

The three people spread out, surrounding the only sentient ninja in the team.

"It seems that we discovered the ninjas from the Land of Rain first. I didn't expect this mission to be so simple." Sakamoto smiled.

"Get ready to fight." Sakata Jounin said.

Meanwhile, Uchiha Tatsu was standing next to the tent.

"Mikoto, what's going on?"

Uchiha Tatsumi, who had just returned from several surveillance routes, came to the place where they were stationed after recording the information.

"No, everything is quiet. There is no sound of the trap being triggered or any sign of contact. Even the snakes are silent."

"Then get ready to call it a day." Uchiha Tatsumi clapped his hands.

"We just need to wait for Mr. Orochimaru's notification before we can go back."

Kushina and Mikoto began to clean up the surrounding tents.

"Since there's nothing going on here, I'll look ahead." Uchiha Tatsumi was about to walk further along the avenue.

"Okay, be careful on the road." Shengshu nodded.

The most important thing for a ninja is vigilance, and they didn't say anything.

Suddenly, Uchiha Tatsu's head popped up, and she started buzzing in Uchiha Tatsu's ears.

Uchiha Tatsu's face suddenly turned ugly.

"What's wrong?" Mikoto asked.

"Baymax said there were chakra fluctuations nearby." Uchiha Tatsumi said.

"Are you a ninja from the Land of Rain?" asked the rope tree.

"No, it's from the direction of Kawa no Kuni!"

"What?!"

Mikoto, Kushina and the others looked surprised.

Their mission this time is to transport gold mines from the Kingdom of Rain.

Their reconnaissance range is also the small distance from the Country of Fire to the Country of Rain.

They wouldn't be surprised if a ninja from the Land of Rain appeared.

But after they waited for so long, they did not find the ninjas from the Kingdom of Rain. They did wait for the ninjas from the Kingdom of Sichuan.

You must know that the Kingdom of Sichuan is sandwiched between the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Sand.

Now if ninjas appear from Kawa no Kuni, then the identity of these ninjas is self-evident...
