Leaf Ninja Life

Chapter 355 Dispatched Again
When Xiuyi heard this name, the face of a middle-aged man with dark skin and simple complexion also appeared in his mind. Although they were not familiar with each other, it was inevitable that they had met each other several times.

As for the opponent's strength... He was born as an orthodox commoner ninja, and his ninjutsu skills are not many, but he has rich experience after fighting for many years.

Even though he is not a powerful person among Jonin, but none of them came back when he took three Jonin out of the mission, he must have encountered a master.

"Okay, I'm going to become a model worker, this Hokage candidate is really a trap..."

Seeing the Third Hokage beckoning him to quickly read the information, Xiuyi groaned inwardly,

Since in general, forbearance can't be held, the only way to solve the problem is to send more teams, or...more powerful characters, with the current manpower in the village, who else can I?

Back then, Minato was also used as a livestock envoy, running alone on several fronts at the same time, but now it was his turn, it was really painful, this is the so-called hard work for the capable...

Pick up the quest record, boy... that's a long way!

The task of the Zhongchuan team is to rescue the wife of the city lord of Matsuyama City. The task entrusted by the city lord is the head of the city, and there seems to be nothing unusual.

Songshan City is the southernmost ancient city in the Land of Fire. This southern region is not the south of the main continent, but the big tail that goes out from the bottom of the Land of Fire plate.

This city is located in a seaside plain bordering the country of tea. Although it is considered the territory of the country of fire, it is quite far from the center of the ninja world.

If you start from Muye Village, you need to run to the border of Uzumaki, and then walk through the complex mountains, or take the sea route down the river,

Even if the elite ninjas rushed at full speed, it would take more than 4 days to arrive.

When Xiuyi was meditating on the spot, the third generation seemed to think of something again. After finding out a lot of secret documents and looking through them, he said to Xiuyi with some embarrassment:

"I might trouble you to make a trip this time. According to Anbu's information, there have been signs of a large number of ninja activities in the Kingdom of Tea in recent years. It is estimated that it is a small-scale war between Sand Hidden and Kiwi Hidden..."

Xiuyi couldn't refuse now. Although he didn't have time to analyze enough information, the accident that Nakagawa's team and Anbu encountered was probably related to this, and it had to be taken seriously when it involved national interests.

"I'll set off as soon as possible. It's best to bring some helpers." Xiuyi replied: "If possible, let Itachi go with him. The rest of the candidates... Shisui and Qiuba."

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to say that he was a little messy, especially since Itachi was only a child, and he participated in more war missions than ordinary ninjas in peacetime,
However, considering that there are frequent monsters in Xiuyi's group, I can only remind him to take good care of Itachi's safety.

Coming out of Hokage Building, Xiuyi quickly returned home to clean up, reorganized his equipment and set off again, heading straight for the Uchiha clan.

It can be said that this kind of investigation task with little information is very troublesome, so he needs a white eye to grasp the initiative, and a master of illusion who can quickly torture him.

As for less manpower?It's not a problem in front of a strong man like him who can form an army by himself...

In the backyard of the Uchiha patriarch's house, two children, one big and one small, stood facing each other a few meters away. Several marbles bounced back and forth between them, and there were still childish shouts from time to time.

"Ouch!"

Little Sasuke couldn't react in time, and the ball bounced off the ground and hit him on the forehead, making him a little dizzy, and then he was hit again and again, making him look quite embarrassed.

"Damn it, look at my counterattack, you must hit it!"

He was so competitive that he didn't intend to follow the rules of the game, so he picked up the ball and threw it straight at Itachi,

Don't look at him, who is under 4 years old, is still very short, but his strength is not weak at all, and he looks like a ninja.

"Ok?"

Itachi's face remained the same, it seemed that the ball disappeared with just one hand shake, and even turned his head to look back when facing the last two balls, and easily blinded the next one.

"Itachi, there is an urgent task coming up, get ready."

Shisui sat on the eaves and waved to him, and there was Shuichi who was silent beside him, as if he was just observing the game process of the two Uchiha brothers.

Itachi saw the signal in the hand gesture, it might be a war mission of A-level or above, and his expression became serious, "I understand!"

When he returned to face his younger brother, a sorry smile flashed across his face, "I'm sorry, Sasuke, I can't play with you recently."

Sasuke was still obsessed with the fact that his illegal offensive was completely ineffective, but when he saw that his brother was about to abandon him and run away, he immediately became anxious.

"What, you are all bad guys, you take my brother away every time you come here!" Sasuke rushed to Itachi's side, puffed up his cheeks at Shisui and Xiuyi on the eaves, his unkind look appeared on a child, but it was a bit cute.

"Hey, little guy, this is all his order, I didn't take your brother away." Xiuyi pointed at Zhishui booth and said,

Completely ignoring the other party's wry smile, isn't it a leader's instinct to take the blame from his subordinates...

"Hmph, you can't fool me, it seems that you are the mastermind!" Sasuke said angrily, "I can remember that you appeared more times than him, especially the first time he followed you. "

After hearing this, Zhishui had a weird expression, he just wanted to snicker, but he didn't dare to blatantly speak out, it can be said that he was holding back quite hard,

And Xiuyi inevitably turned dark, this kid actually has good observation and analysis skills, the Uchiha gene is really not a vegetarian,

Today is considered to be his purple aurora planted, it seems that he will not be able to appear directly in the future.

"Forgive me, Sasuke!" Itachi poked his younger brother on the forehead, he didn't know why this action was so instinctively skillful, and it was so easy to use, "I'll play with you when I come back."

……

Two hours later, the four figures rushed out of Muye Village and went straight south. Of course, the sooner the emergency situation, the better.
Itachi was younger in the team, and Xiuyi had clearly arranged for him to reach the fastest speed on the basis of ensuring that he had sufficient combat power.

"This is the relevant information about our mission, everyone take a look."

During the first break after half a day of traveling, Xiuyi threw several scrolls to the team members, "If you have any opinions, you can raise them."

At the beginning, the three only knew that they were going to investigate the disappearance of Anbu and a certain Jōnin team. After reading more detailed information, they realized that this mission was really not easy.

Miyazaki, wife of the Lord of Matsuyama Castle, was once the princess of the Daming Prefecture of the Land of Fire.
Of course, this kind of situation is very common, because there is never a shortage of princesses in the Daming Mansion, and the women who are specially used for marriage are all of collateral origin, basically as many as they want.

The comprehensive national strength of the Land of Fire comes from the taxation of all cities in the territory, the Daming Mansion controls the politics, and the Muye Village provides military protection.

No one dared to make any crooked thoughts, otherwise, with the strength of a ninja's feet, all disobedient ones could be wiped out within a few days.

However, out of friendship and to strengthen control over some resource-rich cities, the Daming Mansion will use marriages to get closer. During this process, they can manipulate the dowry personnel.

For example, sending people who are good at finance to monitor the economic situation of these subordinate cities, the ordinary guards may also hide the hidden clues of Muye Village,

If an enemy country invades or local turmoil is discovered, the Nation of Fire can immediately suppress it with force.

"Matsuyama Castle is the largest city in the southern region. Not only is it near the sea, but it is also surrounded by a large area of ​​rainforest, volcanoes and other environments. It is very rich in resources, and even silver and iron mines have been discovered." Hinata Akiba said first:

"It's just that this place is relatively remote. Maybe the Miyazaki family is dissatisfied with the tax quota of the Fire Nation, and wants to get rid of the control of the Fire Nation and leave more benefits for themselves?"

This is a normal thought. The exploited have bad thoughts because they are far away. After all, the more output they produce, the more painful it will be to be cut.

"Besides, Kirigakure and Sandgakure have been fighting continuously in the not-too-distant Tea Country. They must have fought for their own interests, and then they discovered new resources on the border between the two countries? The dispute spread to the vicinity of Matsuyama City?" Zhishui guessed. Said.
