In Konoha, your attributes double every day!

Han Guang did not answer the question.

Silent all night.

As soon as it was light, Class 9 set off.

Han Guang was in a bad mood.

Because today's random doubling is of the Spirit attribute, not Agility.

Spirit: 4 (*) [Primary Immunity]

To be honest, despite doubling his mental attributes, Han Guang didn't feel any signs of becoming stronger.

The only difference is that my mind feels much clearer, and it seems that I can even concentrate better.

Looking at the words "Primary Immunity," he had a guess in his mind.

"Primary immunity? Could it be immunity to primary illusion magic?"

Forget it, I'm not going to guess anymore.

After a brief preparation, the team set off.

It was another peaceful day.

As night fell, Kakashi gave a summary of Team 9's final mission.

"We will enter the Land of Hot Springs tomorrow. If all goes well, we should be able to reach the Daimyo Prefecture by tomorrow evening."

"Once we escort Miss Minako to the Daimyo Prefecture, our mission will be complete."

"So tomorrow will be an extremely important day."

indeed so.

Tomorrow marks the final leg of this mission.

"I hope my guess is wrong."

Han Guang sighed and muttered to himself.

Subsequently.

He opened the ninja tool pouch on his leg and touched the more than three hundred explosive tags inside.

"We still didn't bring enough."

The chirping of birds broke the silence at dawn.

After waking up, the first thing Han Guang did was check the attribute panel.

Name: Han Guang

Age: years old

Strength: [Genin-level]

Physical condition: [Chunin level]

Agility: [Jonin Level]

Mental state: (4*) [Intermediate immunity]

Chakra level:

Skills: None

Ninjutsu: None

Overall strength rating: Apprentice Genin

He stared at the attribute panel, speechless for a long time.

"Hanguang, get ready to go," Obito called out.

On the road, the oxcart continued its slow journey towards the border.

Class 9 was on edge, everyone was on high alert.

at last.

In the distance, a river could be seen faintly; that was the border line.

Once you cross the river, you'll reach the Land of Tang.

"Wait a moment!"

Han Guang suddenly spoke, his tone grave.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Are there any enemies?"

At Han Guang's shout, Obito and Rin immediately became alert.

Kakashi jumped over as well, looking at him with a questioning expression.

"We're almost at the border, how come there isn't even a single border guard ninja?" Han Guang asked in a low voice.

"This is normal."

Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief and replied.

He had thought Han Guang had actually discovered the enemy, but it turned out it was because of this.

"You're saying this is normal?" Han Guang frowned.

Previously, Kakashi said that Jonin couldn't enter neutral countries, which was one thing. But now there aren't any Konoha ninja guarding the border. Is this what you call normal?

Next, Kakashi began to explain.

"Because the village signed a treaty of good faith with the Hidden Cloud Village."

"Integrity? Treaty?" Han Guang stared in disbelief.

"Yes! According to the Treaty of Integrity, Konoha will not station troops on the border of Tanghuo, and Kumogakure will not station troops on the border of Leiyue."

Kakashi explained the contents of the treaty.

Han Guangren was dumbfounded.

How could Konoha Village sign such a bizarre treaty?

If the Hidden Cloud Village abides by the treaty, that's fine, but if they don't, then this border line is practically undefended.

Which idiot in the village signed this treaty?

"This was drafted by the Third Hokage himself, in order to show sincerity to Kumogakure and promote peace," Kakashi added.

Han Guang was speechless.

Can peace be brought about by good faith alone?

We must rely on force.

This incident alone makes it clear that the Konoha leadership has entered a stage of decay.

Externally, they are subservient; internally, they strike hard.

Sakumo Hatake's fate is the best example.

After crossing the river, Class 9 entered the Land of Hot Springs.

Of course, the oxcart was tied to the other side of the river, making it impossible to cross. So Minako would have to continue on foot for the rest of the journey.

call out!

Suddenly, a red signal flare rose into the air from the woods.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of ninjas jumped out of the forest, completely blocking Team 9's retreat.

Ten, twentieth, thirtieth, fortieth

One after another, ninjas leaped out.

Obito and Rin were both stunned and stood frozen in place.

How could they have imagined that a mere level-one mission would suddenly attract dozens of ninjas?

Is this a joke?

At this moment, Kakashi's eyes were more solemn than ever before.

More than fifty ninjas, all of them seemed to be Chunin?

"I knew it!"

Han Guang cursed inwardly and pulled out over a hundred explosive tags.

Wow! ! !

Without thinking, he threw them all out.

"What are you doing standing still? Run!"
