A fighter from Hyuga

Even in war, this could be used to fight a local offensive and defensive battle.

"What's so surprising? At the beginning of a war, whether or not we can get intelligence means whether or not we can take the initiative in the subsequent confrontation.

There is no mission more important than this.”

Hearing this, Mikoto glanced at Nawaki standing beside her.

“I know this mission is important, but isn’t it too outrageous that Kumogakure sent out a whole half-team to carry out this mission?

How did they get here?"

Rubbing his swollen temples, Sheng Shu said with some distress.

Nawaki really didn't expect that there would be so many senior ninjas participating in this mission.

"And, if I remember correctly, Captain White Fang only sent a small team on this mission?"

After that, Sheng Shu continued.

"Is that a problem? Ken has my Flying Thunder God Kunai in his hand, I'm on standby in the Anbu, ready to rescue, and there's a whole squad left in the village.

Moreover, even if the Anbu is short of manpower, there are plenty of jonin in the jonin squad.

If I wanted, it would be fine for the Hokage to be here."

Hearing this, Xiu Si looked at Sheng Shu beside him and explained to him.

So, actually from the very beginning, Sakumo was planning to let himself do this task.

The team led by Jian just came here first and left a coordinate so that they could have more time to practice.

Ah……

A slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Xiu Si had a deeper understanding of himself as the captain.

“As for how did the Kumogakure Anbu appear here?

It is not difficult to spread out, slowly infiltrate the Wind Country, and finally gather near here."

"But no matter what, the problem is now before us, so, my two talented subordinates, do you have any good ideas?"

With his arms folded across his chest, Shusi leaned against the sand dune behind him.

The pillow under his head was the mark of the Flying Thunder God.

Interestingly, this is where Rizu and his men stayed when they tried to kill Fengying.

It is also the place where I now use to experiment with some ninjutsu.

It’s really... fate.

"At present, whether it is the Iwagakure messenger or the Kumogakure Anbu, their overall strength is much stronger than ours.

Apart from requesting for support, waiting for the battle between them to end before we take action is our only option."

Hearing this, Mikoto said to Shuji who was beside her.

Although at present, among the three forces, Konoha is the weakest.

However, Mikoto didn't seem worried at all.

After all, although there is only one senior ninja like Shuji in Konoha.

However, Konoha has an absolute leading intelligence advantage.

Besides, if it really doesn't work, what if I ask the village for support?

Don't even mention what's happening with the Anbu or the Jonin team.

Just for example, the Senju, Hyuga, and Uchiha families, which one can't produce more than a dozen jonin?

"Mikoto is right, but I'm a little worried. If there are no survivors in Kumogakure..."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Shu said to Shu Si without any hesitation.

But he also expressed his concerns, even if the person was dead, the Yamanaka family could still read the information.

However, the completeness of the intelligence obtained will definitely be affected.

If possible, Sheng Shu still hopes to capture the captain of the envoy group alive this time.

However, as Mikoto said, this is the only way without asking for support.

Flaws or not, it's the only way.

"Ah."

Hearing this, Xiusi nodded. After thinking about it, Xiusi bit his finger, formed seals with both hands, and summoned a small slug.

"Slug Immortal, I am sorry to trouble you again this time."

Looking at the little slug in front of him, a slightly embarrassed smile appeared on Xiusi's face.

"Xiao Xiusi? When are you going to come to the Wet Bone Forest to learn fairy arts?"

Chapter 202, time-limited competition!

"Alas... the war has just ended, and the village is now under great pressure. I plan to go to the Wet Bone Forest to learn from you after I have dealt with the current affairs."

Hearing this, Xiuji immediately said to the Slug Immortal.

"Well, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Upon hearing this, the Slug Immortal just nodded and didn't say much.

This is how human beings are, fighting with each other every day.

The Slug Immortal has gotten used to it.

"What do you want from me this time? Are you going to ask me to suppress the tailed beasts again?"

After saying this, the Slug Immortal continued to ask Xiu Si, and at the end, there was a hint of smile in his words.

Since it's in the desert, it's definitely not about suppressing the tailed beasts.

Shukaku wants to be resurrected, but not so quickly.

"Of course not. I hope you can take the Flying Thunder God Kunai two kilometers away in that direction."

"now?"

The Slug Immortal was stunned when he heard this and looked at the Flying Thunder God Kunai handed to him by Xiu Si.

"You need to wait a moment..."

Hearing this, Xiuji said to Slug Immortal.

Let the Slug Sage bring the Flying Thunder God Kunai to the vicinity of the battlefield, so that Shusi can enter the battlefield in an instant.

Ugh……

To be honest, the Flying Thunder God Technique is sometimes quite inconvenient.

If I could display my divine power, there wouldn't be so much trouble.

By the way... my eyes haven't moved for a long time...

Subconsciously, Xiusi reached out and touched his eyes.

Shuji remembered that one could perform the Hollow Transformation with the Byakugan of an Ōtsutsuki.

Then my Byakugan will surely be able to evolve into this kind of pupil technique in the future...

……

"Master Shiden, this place is very far away from the Sand Village. We..."

At the foot of a small hill not far from the Iwagakure envoy group, a member of the Kumogakure Anbu asked Zidian.

This is the captain of the Kumogakure operation and one of the four squad leaders of the Anbu.

"Well, inform everyone and act according to the plan."

"Yes!"

Under the scorching sun, more than twenty members of the Kumogakure Anbu began to move quickly.

A huge encirclement was formed with the Iwagakure delegation as the center.

However, the encirclement did not shrink.

The Anbu of Kumogakure are still waiting, waiting... for night to fall.

Time passed slowly, the heat of the day dissipated, and the cold of the night came.

The desert is a place where the temperature difference between day and night is extremely large.

"Shigetaka-kun, is it necessary to send a jonin on patrol duty?"

After Shigetaka finished giving instructions for the security mission, Keisuke asked Shigetaka with a smile.

“Keisuke-kun is coming to Sunagakure, Kumogakure and Konoha must know about it, and we will definitely encounter attacks from these two villages along the way.

Given the style of Lord Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village, it is very likely that he will directly take the time to send the Anbu who remain in the village to carry out this mission.

As for Konoha, as long as the ninja who can fly Thunder God comes here, no one can be sure how many Konoha jonin will appear here.

If only Genin were to perform the guard duty, we would easily be attacked without any preparation.

Especially since this place is quite far from Sunagakure."

Hearing this, Shigetaka spoke to Keisuke very seriously.

The death of the Third Kazekage made the Sand Village ninjas hold their breath and wait for an opportunity to take revenge.

It also qualitatively improved the vigilance of the Sand Village ninjas.

In the current Konoha, even the Kage can be killed!

Who among the Kazekage's guards is not a jonin?

Therefore, even though he had five jonin here, Shigekao did not feel safe at all.

"If that's the case, then this journey is very dangerous."

Hearing this, Keisuke pursed his lips silently and had to admit that what Shigetaka said made sense.
