In Konoha, your attributes double every day!

"Remember, if Namikaze makes any unusual moves..."

"Don't worry, Lord Danzo, I will inform you truthfully." Han Guang said sincerely.

after an hour.

The nine teams assembled at the village entrance and headed towards the Land of Hot Springs.

along the way.

The scroll was passed around for viewing.

The vanguard of the Cloud Village forces has assembled at the border of Tanghuo.

Upon seeing this intelligence, Han Guang knew without a doubt that this mission would involve stationing himself opposite the vanguard of the Cloud Village.

That is, the border river.

At noon.

During the short break, Han Guang approached Namikaze.

"Teacher, how is the daimyo of the Land of Hot Springs doing?"

"What? Worried?" Namikaze asked with a smile, chewing on a dumpling.

"Uh, I was just asking."

"She's fine. She escaped to the village last night and is with Kushina."

"I see~~"

In the afternoon, the nine teams continued their journey.

Han Guang noticed that the squads were very quiet, with a deathly atmosphere.

Even their own Ninth Class kept their heads down and hurried on, no one speaking.

"So what if they're going to war? Can't these people be a little happier?"

into the night.

Several bonfires rose, and the various teams gathered around them, whispering among themselves.

Han Guang approached Obito and discovered that the guy was writing his will.

If I die in battle, there are 8 taels of silver in the chest under my bed. I will give 1 taels to Han Guang and donate the other 7 taels to the school...

Han Guang: "???"

This guy is really kind-hearted.

Han Guang stood up, ready to take a stroll.

After all, Kakashi was gazing at the night sky from the tree, Rin was lost in thought in front of the fire, and Anko was lying in front of the fire, seemingly asleep.

After passing several squads, Han Guang arrived at Bo Fengmen's side.

“You’ve come at the right time; I was just about to look for you,” Namikaze blurted out.

"Find me?"

"Come!"

The two sat in front of the fire.

"The vanguard of the Cloud Ninja this time has about three hundred people."

Namikaze unfolded a map and marked the east side of the border river.

"Wait a minute, isn't this location the path to Daming Prefecture?" Han Guang looked at the marker and recognized the location.

Back then, Team 9 escorted Minako into the Land of Hot Springs from here.

It was during that escort mission that Han Guang was chased by dozens of Chunin.

He still remembers it vividly to this day.

“That’s right! Since most other parts of the Land of Hot Water are high mountains and forests, Kumogakure chose this place.”

As he spoke, Namikaze drew a line with his pen.

They moved directly from the Cloud Ninja outpost to the Land of Lightning.

"This line is most likely the route taken by the vanguard of the Cloud Village, and also the route taken by their main force."

Looking at the line, Han Guang expressed his agreement.

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. What's more, there's a road along that straight line.

Under these circumstances, it would be impossible for Yunyin to take a detour through the high mountains and forests.

Next.

The problem is coming.

"Teacher, is our nine teams' mission simply to guard the border and carry out defense?"

Han Guang asked the biggest question.

“Yes!” Namikaze nodded.

Upon hearing this answer, Han Guang frowned.

Thirty people were defending against more than 300 people, and they also had to face a large enemy force that could arrive at any time.

To be honest, Han Guang didn't understand the point of defense.

Is this effective?

It's important to know that the Cloud Ninja are not those ragtag ninjas, but powerful ninjas who possess Lightning Release.

Konoha Village wants to defend itself with nine genin squads? Is that a joke?

In the field.

Seeing Han Guang frown, Namikaze gave a wry smile.

"You've also spotted the problem."

"Teacher, this is a big problem~~" Han Guang said bluntly.

"This is a death order given to me by the Third Hokage: use every means possible to hold back the main force of the Cloud Village."

Han Guang was completely speechless.

Before leaving, Namikaze gave one more reminder.

"Han Guang, I know you're fast. But don't be too confident in your speed."

"Some Cloud Ninja can use Lightning Release: Body Flicker to increase their speed to Kage level."

Early the next morning.

The nine teams set off again.
