In Konoha, your attributes double every day!

We are about to reach the riverbank at the border.

At this moment, all the squads were on edge.

pity.

An unexpected incident still occurred.

Boom~~Boom~~

The sudden explosion instantly killed three squads.

"Back off!!"

Namikaze shouted, and the other teams retreated.

"This is... an explosive tag trap set up on the road near the border?"

Looking at the huge crater blasted into the road, Han Guang felt that the Yunren were despicable.

They've even crossed the border to set up traps.

These traps are difficult to detect because the detonators are buried in the ground and will explode if stepped on.

"No wonder so many ninjas like to travel through trees."

Chapter 42 The Infiltration Team Led by Han Guang!

As ninjas, sacrifices are inevitable.

But when they actually saw three squads of ninjas being blown up, the others were still terrified.

This is a fear of death.

Because death is very close to everyone.

The nine bodies were buried on the spot, and a somber atmosphere permeated the remaining six squads.

"If our squad had been in that position, we would have been the ones killed in the explosion," Obito muttered.

He was no longer his usual carefree self; his face was serious.

"The Cloud Ninja are truly despicable, actually crossing the border to set up a trap." Lin verbally condemned the Cloud Ninja, very angry.

"That's normal. Who told us Konoha to not have any defensive forces here?" Anko said, taking it all in stride.

Kakashi and Han Guang, however, did not offer any opinions.

Next.

The remaining twenty people, led by Namikaze, cautiously set up camp on a hillside a few hundred meters from the river.

From here, you can see the Cloud Ninja on the other side of the river, as well as several newly built fortifications.

"Cold light".

Hearing Teacher Men call his name, Han Guang went over.

The master and apprentice arrived at the edge of the hillside and looked out at the Cloud Ninja's position across the river.

"Tell me your thoughts," Namikaze said, his robes fluttering in the wind.

"I have no opinion." Han Guang shook his head.

"Hmm? This isn't like you at all." Namikaze was slightly surprised.

He had always thought this student was very smart and decisive, so why was he being so humble now?

"Teacher, instead of asking for my opinion, you should ask yourself what you plan to do," Han Guang retorted.

Since the Third Hokage had Namikaze Kagami hold off the Cloud Ninja, Kagami must have had his own ideas and strategies.

"You boy."

Smiling and shaking his head, Namikaze gave his opinion.

"First of all, this group of Cloud Ninja is just the vanguard. They shouldn't cross the border yet; they're waiting for the main force to follow."

"Once the main force of the Cloud Village arrives, that will be the time for them to launch their attack."

Han Guang agreed with Teacher Men's opinion.

If this vanguard were to launch a surprise attack across the border, they wouldn't build fortifications; instead, they would simply rush in.

The construction of fortifications clearly indicates a defensive posture.

“They have another reason,” Han Guang suddenly said.

"Hmm? Speak." Namikaze gestured for him to speak quickly.

"This group of Cloud Ninja is not only waiting for the main force, but also defending against our infiltration into the Land of Hot Springs."

How to defend against Konoha ninja infiltrating the Land of Hot Springs?

Namikaze was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly realized.

Supply Station!

This vanguard of Cloud Ninja was not only there to clear the way, but also to prevent Konoha from infiltrating the Land of Hot Springs and sabotaging the supply depot.

Because this is related to the large contingent of the Cloud Village.

The thought of the supply depot immediately lit up Namikaze's eyes.

Previously, the Sand Village could send a small team to sabotage the Leaf Village's supply depots. Now, Kazekazu could easily follow the Sand Village's example and send a small team to sabotage the Cloud Village's supply depots.

"Han Guang, we have a very important task now." Namikaze had an idea.

"An infiltration mission?" Han Guang asked, turning his head to the side.

"No! It's a feint attack mission. You'll temporarily take my place and lead the other squads in a feint attack on the Cloud Ninja. I'll take the opportunity to infiltrate and sabotage the supply depots within the Land of Hot Springs."

Han Guang was a little surprised.

He originally thought that Teacher Men would send him to infiltrate, but it turned out that Teacher Men himself infiltrated.

After thinking for a moment, Han Guang shook his head.

"Huh? You disagree?" Namikaze asked, puzzled.

"No, the problem is with this mission."

Han Guang spoke frankly.

"Teacher, have you considered what the Cloud Ninja will think if you don't appear in the feint attack?"

"this..."

Namikaze was stunned.

Yes.

If I don't show up during the feint attack, the Cloud Ninja will definitely guess that someone has infiltrated.

“So, I’ll handle this kind of infiltration mission.” Han Guang smiled, revealing his white teeth.

Namikaze's expression was complicated.

Looking at this disciple, he sensed a kind of 'great' aura.

Taking a deep breath, the doorman began to give instructions.

"Remember, after destroying the supply station, immediately flee into the mountains and forests, and do not linger in the same place."

"Take this if you encounter a crisis."

As he spoke, Namikaze took out an exquisite kunai and handed it to Hanguang.

"In times of danger, channel chakra into the kunai."

"Also, when you return to the border, input your chakra, and I will come to meet you."

Namikaze has finished speaking.

Then, after thinking for a moment, he said, "It's too dangerous for you to go alone; you need two teammates."

"Teacher, it's not necessary," Han Guang refused.

"no!"

Namikaze disagreed.

After a while.

Kakashi and Yugao Uzuki appeared.

To be honest, Han Guang didn't quite understand.

He could barely agree to Kakashi as a teammate, but what the heck is Uzuki Yugao?

This woman's strength seems to be only slightly stronger than Lin's.

"Uzuki Yugao, please introduce your abilities," Namikaze said solemnly.

"Oh, I'm learning Konoha-style swordsmanship and have also mastered basic medical ninjutsu," Uzuki Yugao introduced, while giving Hanguang a strange look.

She could understand having a genius like Kakashi, but how come there was also an ultimate loser like Han Guang?
