Naruto: I'm Really Not a Pokémon

And since he had never told Qing about the proposal that Karuju Yagura had made before, he was worried that the other party might have said something to Qing, causing Qing to misunderstand.

Hearing the question raised by Jianchuan Tachibana, Mei Terumi and Zabuza both looked at Qing lying on the hospital bed.

"Well, you are still my subordinates, but most of the missions from now on will be completed by the three of you."

Well, Qing put it more tactfully, but I guess I won’t be able to take this big guy and bodyguard with me when I go out in the future.

As if noticing that several people looked a little depressed, Qing spoke to comfort them.

"You are still temporary Chunin now. I will often guide you in your ninjutsu training, and some important tasks in the future will still require you to carry out with me."

After Qing emphasized the temporary Chunin again, Jianchuan Ju finally reacted. Although he was promoted to Chunin, it seemed that the system would not recognize this kind of promotion without formal appointment.

There were no achievement notifications or system rewards.

"Don't worry, Teacher Qing, we are not as fragile as you think."

Although Qing was pleased to see his disciples were confident, he still gave them a reminder.

"The situation on the front line has been a little strange recently. You should be more careful."

As a senior executive in the current camp, Qing obviously knows more about the overall battle situation.

Logically speaking, both Konoha and the Hidden Mist Village are eager to have a head-on battle, but surprisingly, no one has taken the initiative to launch a large-scale advance.

The Hidden Mist Village's intentions were understandable, after all, they had the advantage of location, so they wanted to hold back and lure Konoha into attacking. If Konoha crossed the sea to attack the Whirlpool Island camp, they would undoubtedly be blocked by the Hidden Mist Village at sea, causing heavy losses.

But it was a bit strange that Konoha had not launched an attack yet. After all, the coastline of the Land of Fire was too long, making Konoha exhausted in defense.

In the current small-scale collision, the average quality of Konoha ninjas is obviously higher than that of Kirigakure, but the number of casualties is much higher than that of Kirigakure.

Besides, in terms of military strength alone, the Hidden Mist Village has the advantage.

"Teacher Qing is worried that Konoha will make a big move soon?"

"That's right, Konoha can't just keep going like this. Besides, Iwagakure and Kumogakure are eyeing them covetously. They can't afford to delay any longer." Qing paused for a moment when he said this.

"This is also the consensus of the top leaders of Kirigakure at present. However, we are not sure how they will launch the attack. Therefore, whether you are on an outbound mission or in the camp, you must be vigilant."

"Yes" x3

After Jianchuan Ju rebandaged Qing, Qing also put down the scroll in his hand. He learned about the three disciples' recent ninjutsu training and gave them some pointers.

The Fire Country coastline, Konoha camp.

"Lord Orochimaru, this is a message from the village from the Third Hokage."

Nara Suzaku respectfully handed a scroll to Orochimaru.

Orochimaru, who was organizing ninjutsu information, did not stop his actions. Instead, he spoke casually to Nara Suzaku.

"Put it on the table first. Suzaku, you've been very busy in charge of the project recently, so go back and rest early today."

"But, Lord Orochimaru."

"It doesn't matter. I guess the old guys can't sit still anymore. I'll take a look later."

"Yes, I will withdraw first."

Then Nara Suzaku carefully placed the scroll in a more conspicuous place on the table and retreated respectfully.

After finishing the work at hand, Orochimaru picked up the scroll and opened it to read.

"Haha, the Hidden Cloud Village can't sit still anymore? Why is this boring war so attractive? Then let's end it as soon as possible."

Orochimaru quickly finished reading the scroll and a scornful smile appeared on his face.

Then Orochimaru walked out of his tent and waved to the ninja who was guarding nearby.

"Thank you for your hard work. Go and ask Nono Ue, the pharmacist from the medical team, to come over for me."

The ninja immediately nodded excitedly and hurried towards the medical team.

Chapter 77 Onlookers

The three little ones came out of Qing's tent and were about to head to the open space on the west side of the camp.

It is one of the few places in the front-line camp that can provide daily training for ninjas.

After all, some war missions are not easy, and most ninjas will choose to relax and rest after returning to the camp.

Even some of the more hardworking ninjas would refine their chakra in their own tents, and only a small number of ninjas who needed to experiment with ninjutsu would use the training ground.

However, having just received some instructions from Qing, the three little ones decided to go to an open space to practice some simple moves.

Just as the three were about to reach the training ground, they saw a tall figure walking towards them.

With long orange hair and a height of nearly two meters and five, who else could it be but the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost?

Upon seeing this, the three of them immediately stepped aside obediently. Even the usually stubborn Zabuza did not show off at this time.

Although Xiguashan Puffer Demon had some unpleasantness with his captain before, he also forced the three Genin of the Ao Squad to participate in the task of chasing the Jonin.

But in the Hidden Mist Village, especially in the frontline camp, Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost is a real superior. If the three dared to show any disrespect to each other, even if they were chopped directly, no one would say anything.

However, the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost seemed to have not noticed the three people who had stepped aside, and walked leisurely past them.

A strong smell of blood came to his face, and Jianchuanju subconsciously looked behind the Xiguashan puffer ghost, only to find that it was an acquaintance.

After glancing at the Xiguashan pufferfish demon who had already walked away, Jianchuan Ju made a look at Hoshigaki Kisame who was following behind him.

Seeing this, Hoshigaki Kisame also cooperated very well and blinked at Jianchuan Tachibana, but unfortunately his eyes seemed unable to convey much information.

However, with the help of hand gestures, Jianchuan Ju understood the other party's intention to contact him later.

Then Jianchuan Ju also pointed in the direction of the training ground and left with his two friends.

"That shark-faced guy just now, is he from the Hoshigaki clan?"

Zabuza looked back at the ninja swords carried by Xiguashan Puffer Demon and Hoshigaki Kisame and asked.

"Yes, I treated his injuries when I was interning at the hospital. He was a very powerful Chunin. I wonder if he has become a Jonin now."

When Zabuza saw Jianchuan Tachibana praising that person, he replied speechlessly.

"I'm just wondering, the Hoshigaki clan doesn't seem to have blue skin."

"Ahem, it must be a mutation, but don't you think blue skin and shark face go well together?"

Jianchuan Ju awkwardly adjusted his collar and tried to change the subject.

Who would have thought that as soon as I walked into the training ground, I saw a group of ninjas gathered in a circle, discussing something.

The three little ones walked over curiously, but their pupils suddenly shrank.

What was surrounded by the crowd was a pit with a diameter of more than two meters. Blood was splattered everywhere in the pit, and a bloody corpse was lying inside.

There were several black-haired ninjas wearing similar attire standing at the edge of the pit, looking at the corpse with unsightly expressions.

Mei Terumi quietly pulled on Jianchuanju's sleeve and asked in a low voice.

"How could anyone be attacked in the camp?"

Tachibana Kanagawa was naturally unaware of the situation, but seeing several patrolling ninja squads nearby who didn't seem particularly tense, it was unlikely to be a Konoha attack.

Remembering the bloody scent that the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon had left behind when it passed by them, Tachibana Kenkawa roughly guessed what was going on.

Then Jianchuan Ju looked around the crowd and found a ninja whom he had treated before. He had the impression that the other party was relatively easy to talk to, so Jianchuan Ju simply walked up to him and started a conversation.

"Hey, that's an idiot. I heard that he was a Chunin trained by the Snow Clan. For some reason, he actually went to provoke Master Xiguashan. Now, he was killed on the spot."

The middle-aged ninja teased with a mocking tone.

It seems that this person is one of those people who usually dislike family ninjas. When a big family like the Snow Clan loses face, they are naturally happy to gloat over it.

Of course, Jianchuan Ju actually has a similar mentality.

He had not forgotten that on the way back from completing the mission in the Land of Craftsmen, the Blue Team was attacked by ninjas trained by the Snow Clan.

However, the Snow Clan is one of the largest families in the Hidden Mist Village after all, and Jianchuan Ju does not have the ability to retaliate against them for the time being.

Now that there was the other party's excitement to watch, Jianchuan Ju certainly wouldn't miss it, and she also told Terumi Mei about the general situation.

Unfortunately, before the incident happened, other people in the training ground would not pay special attention to other people's affairs, so no one knew how that Chunin offended the Xiguashan Puffer Demon.

Everyone just saw the other person being knocked to death on the spot by the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost with a casual knife.

However, even though they didn't really understand what happened, Jianchuan Ju and the other two happily followed the others to watch the show.

After a long while, a woman who seemed to be a Jonin from the Snow Clan came to the training ground with an angry face and took away all the ninjas from their family, thus putting an end to the crowd's onlookers.

However, Jianchuan Ju noticed that the woman seemed to look in the direction of the three people before leaving.

"It would be most interesting if the Snow Clan and the Watermelon Mountain fought to the death." Mei Terumi said hatefully.

"Okay, there are so many people here, let's find a place where there is no one and start practicing ninjutsu."

There were many people here, so Jianchuan Ju decisively stopped Mei Terumi from continuing.

Although it is just an open space for training, the area is still very large. At least so many ninjas who were watching just now can now be distributed in this open space without interfering with each other.

The three of them walked to a secluded location and used earth and water escape techniques to create a small puddle to practice.

However, the ninjutsu released by Tachibana Jiangawa attracted the attention of Mei Terumi and Zabuza.
