However, this time it may be even more dangerous than last time.
Because after completing their escort mission, they would have to stay on the front lines, and who knows what other missions they might be assigned.
Of course, for Zhang Shan now, this is not a dangerous thing.
The four of them followed the convoy and left Konoha.
This time, the goods being escorted consisted of three truckloads of weapons. I don't know what the Third Generation was thinking. How could he entrust such important items to a few rookies to transport?
A light rain was falling from the sky, and a thin layer of mist shrouded the jungle.
Zhang Shan and his group walked along the path, each of them looking wary.
"Why not go through the mainland this time?" Zhang Shan asked, puzzled.
“Generally speaking, taking the back roads is more concealed. Even if someone tries to ambush us, there won’t be many of them, because they won’t know which road we’re taking. Besides, the roads here are narrow, and there aren’t many places to hide. It would be difficult for them to ambush us here,” Minato explained.
Are there really that many tricks to it?
Zhang Shan said he learned something new, but it didn't seem to be very useful.
The light drizzle made the ground muddy, making it difficult for the carriage to move forward.
They were already quite a distance from Konoha, making this a very good position should the enemy send someone to attack them!
Minato unconsciously tightened his grip on the kunai, fully releasing his senses so that he could react instantly to anything he detected.
Fortunately, they seemed to have good luck and passed through the narrow path safely.
At this moment, the uncle in charge of driving the carriage laughed and said, "Don't worry, young men, this is the Land of Fire. Those guys from the Land of Wind can't possibly break through Lady Tsunade's defenses and enter the Land of Fire!"
Hearing the old man's words, the group relaxed a little. Minato replied with a smile, "Yes, Lady Tsunade is a very reliable person!"
Because of Kushina, Minato and Tsunade had met a few times, but only a few times. When Tsunade wasn't on a mission, she was usually at the casino and rarely appeared at home.
Zhang Shan activated his Observation Haki, taking in the surrounding situation.
Just like the old man said, there was no danger. I guess, as they said, the other side simply couldn't get past Tsunade's defenses to the rear.
"The current Konoha soldiers are elite and powerful. Not only do they have the Sannin who can fight Hanzo of the Salamander head-on, but they also have Kage-level powerhouses like Hatake Sakumo. I'm afraid Sunagakure doesn't want to fight anymore, right?" Zhang Shan thought to himself, "By the way, Tsunade's brother seems to have died in the last two years. Should we try to save him?"
Before exchanging fists with Zhang Shan in the white coat, Zhang Shan would never have thought of meddling in other people's business. After all, it was difficult for him to survive on the battlefield, let alone save others.
But now, Zhang Shan has the power to look down on the world, and many regrets can be made up for.
Chapter 25 I have a heavy task on my shoulders!
On the way, Minato and Shiki in their team were sensory-type ninjas, while Zhang Shan and Ding Za were classified as power-type.
In other words, when they're not fighting, they're nobody's business.
As he moved forward, Zhang Shan kept thinking about the tragedies in Naruto.
"Minato and Kushina are no match for me. With me here, the mere Nine-Tails is nothing to me!"
Zhang Shan will naturally choose to save Obito, but Madara Uchiha's representative will definitely still appear; it's just a matter of who it is.
The only difference is that the time it takes for the other party to come and get the Nine-Tails will be different from the original story.
But as I said before, he is very strong now. If he joins forces with Minato, even if Madara Uchiha himself came, he could still manage to dance a few moves!
"However, Madara Uchiha is a matter of more than ten years from now. Let's think about the current situation first."
He is currently in the midst of the Second Shinobi World War. In a year or two at most, the Second Shinobi World War will come to an end. At that time, Tsunade, heartbroken by the deaths of her boyfriend Dan Kato and her younger brother Nawaki, will leave Konoha and take up a life of gambling.
Orochimaru, having witnessed Nawaki's death by explosion, was once again struck by the fragility of life. He then devoted himself to researching forbidden techniques and even colluded with Danzo to conduct human experiments, ultimately leading to his defection.
Jiraiya pursued Orochimaru, resulting in Konoha losing three young Kage-level fighters.
The remaining Kage-level fighter, Hatake Sakumo, committed suicide due to public opinion, leaving Konoha's fighting strength unprecedentedly weak.
If it weren't for Minato's unexpected rise to prominence, using his Flying Thunder God Technique to fight across the four battlefields, Konoha would have suffered a crushing defeat in the Third Shinobi World War!
"So, the first thing to do is to save Nawaki? But Nawaki is currently with Orochimaru and is on the battlefield in the Land of Earth. I can't get there anytime soon."
Make a note of this for now. When I see Tsunade, I'll call Nawaki over in Mito's name. There shouldn't be any problem.
The tragedy not only involved Konoha, but also the sisters of other ninja villages in the ninja world… no, it involved other tragedies in the ninja world.
For example, the Queen of Loulan, Yekura of Sunagakure, Konan, and so on...
"Hmm, it seems I have a lot of responsibilities!" Zhang Shan smiled, full of anticipation for his bright future.
The group traveled for five days before finally arriving at the front lines of the Land of Wind.
Inside the command center.
"You mean Grandma Mito told you to take good care of Nawaki?" Tsunade rubbed her tired eyes, looking at Minato and Zhang Shan with some difficulty. "But Nawaki is currently on the battlefield in the Land of Earth, under Orochimaru's command..."
Moreover, the battlefield here is extremely dangerous. The Sand Ninja's poison is hard to defend against. If Nawaki were to be accidentally poisoned, Tsunade would live with regret for the rest of her life!
"Don't worry, Lady Tsunade! Nawaki will be fine with us!" Minato said. Although he didn't know why Zhang Shan had called Nawaki over, Minato trusted Zhang Shan and told him a lie.
"Alright, I understand. I'll send a message to Orochimaru in a bit and ask Nawaki to come over as soon as possible."
"Well then, I'm sorry to bother you, Lady Tsunade!"
After Minato and Zhang Shan left Tsunade's tent, no one mentioned the incident again. Minato did not question Zhang Shan about his purpose, and Zhang Shan did not offer any explanation.
After all, how do you explain this? Tell Minato that Nawaki will die if he stays on the battlefield in the Land of Earth?
Nobody will believe it.
Fortunately, everything is going smoothly now. He colluded with Minato and, using Mito's name, got Tsunade to bring Nawaki over.
"Wouldn't that prevent Rope Tree from dying?"
After resting for a night, Zhang Shan and his men received orders to go to the front lines to fight the next day!
In the command post, Tsunade addressed the group: "Although you are young, now that you are Chunin, I will no longer treat you like children! Remember! You are now experiencing war, so never underestimate any enemy! Otherwise, you will die."
Although it might seem like something meant to scare a child, everyone present clearly understood that it wasn't just empty threats, but a real war!
Since it's war, people will inevitably die.
In order to survive, besides having the strength to do it yourself, the necessary survival skills are also an important part!
The four followed the main force and fought their way to the border between the two countries.
When the two sides of ninjas met, the first thing they did was to exchange ranged blows with kunai and shuriken. Most of the kunai were attached with explosive tags, and by the time they saw them, the tags were already about to explode.
Boom boom boom!
Ahead, the explosion instantly ignited the battlefield, and Konoha and Sand Ninja, armed with kunai, charged through the thick smoke and engaged in fierce combat!
Zhang Shan and his group were positioned relatively far back, so they weren't hit by the explosive tags.
But seeing the Konoha ninjas fall one by one in the distance, Minato and the other two gritted their teeth and kept throwing kunai in their hands, trying to help.
Boom boom boom!
Another series of explosions followed, and most of the people at the front were instantly injured!
"hateful!"
"Brothers, charge!"
"kill!"
"Ah!! My arm is broken! Quick! Help me!"
"I can't feel my lower body! Ah! Water Wave Technique!"
Roars, screams, and the last hurrah of ninjutsu.
The various sounds entering Zhang Shan's ears were extremely annoying!
"These people!" Zhang Shan gritted his teeth, but didn't know what to say.
If you were to ask him what he really thought when he saw this scene, he would say he was somewhat uncomfortable.
Compared to his previous trips to the front lines of the Rain Kingdom to collect corpses, severed fingers, and remains, he is now personally engaged in frontline combat.
Looking at those people who were blown to pieces by an explosive tag, even with Zhang Shan's memories in the white coat, it was still just a memory, and it was a completely different feeling from experiencing it firsthand.
"It's coming!"
Minato charged out first and swung a kunai at a Sand Ninja!
"Kid? Die!"
The other party wouldn't show any mercy just because Minato was a child; in fact, he was quite pleased that he had killed another of their ninjas!
Just as their bodies were about to make contact, Minato's speed suddenly increased, and he appeared behind the Sand Ninja as a black shadow.
The next moment, a bloody gash appeared on the throat of the sand ninja!
"How could this be! I actually got... done by this brat..."
Before he could finish speaking, he completely lost his life.
But Minato's figure did not stop. He seemed to have transformed into the Grim Reaper, quickly shuttling between a group of Chunin. With each move, he would reap a life!
"That Minato guy!" Seeing Minato wreaking havoc, Choza felt a little itchy to join in and rushed out after him!
"Meat bomb tank!"
Glug glug glug!
A ball of flesh rolled by at incredible speed, sending all the Sand Ninja it touched flying and falling to the ground motionless.
Zhang Shan and Zhiwei followed not far from the two, ensuring they could see each other and provide support at any time. They also watched each other's backs to prevent being ambushed.
"You could be attacked from any direction at any time, so that's what war is all about!"
Chapter 26 Yekura
On the battlefield, Choza and Minato were completely outstanding, and wherever they went, the enemy fell like wheat that had been cut in half!
Their dazzling performance undoubtedly attracted the attention of those with ulterior motives.
On their side, Tsunade, who had been arguing with Chiyo, glanced at Minato and thought to herself, "As expected of the old man's promising junior, his strength is far greater than ours was back then!"
Think about what they were doing when they were as big as Watergate.
