Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 59 Bad News (Fifth update! Please subscribe!)

Over the next ten days, Tachibana Jianchuan and Zabuza concentrated on learning new ninjutsu.

The two of them even cut back on their planned swordplay practice.

That's right, both of them have arranged a certain amount of swordsmanship practice recently. Jianchuan Tachibana is doing basic training, while Zabuza is doing swordsmanship combined with wire techniques.

However, the training progress of both of them was a bit slow, and they could only rely on pulling each other down to cheer themselves up.

Qing was running between the perception class and the training ground, familiarizing himself with his new job while guiding his disciples in their practice.

The three of them were all very busy, so Mei Terumi was the only one who went to the Mizukage Building every day to check for suitable tasks.

Mei Terumi had no complaints about having to watch the task board, but she still had to catch the two of them for a sparring match every afternoon when she came to the training ground.

The strength of the three of them is now about the same, and they usually win and lose against each other. This kind of sparring has a very obvious effect on improving their strength.

Oh, by the way. Since Lan Zai's last evolution, his attributes in all aspects have been improved, and his overall strength has grown by leaps and bounds.

Now he has the strength of an ordinary Chunin, especially his speed is amazing, and his actual combat level is not inferior to the three little ones.

So now, both Mei Terumi and Zabuza refuse to regard Tachibana and Lan as a whole.

During normal combat training, they are basically divided into four groups and fight on their own, or in pairs.

Chen-Chou-Mao

"Water Style*Water Wave"

The Water Wave Ninjutsu is slightly different from the Water Style * Water Shock Wave that Mei Terumi often uses.

The impact force was even weaker and couldn't even create waves. The water that came out of Jianchuan Ju's mouth turned into a parabola, forming a small lake on the ground.

However, this ninjutsu only has three seals, is released faster, and consumes less chakra, which perfectly meets Jianchuan Ju's current needs for creating water environment ninjutsu.

Seeing that the water waves had completely covered the ground, Mei Terumi reluctantly crawled out from the ground.

That’s right, combat training is currently underway.

Since all three members of the Ao Squad are considered water-style ninjutsu, Mei Terumi has been using earth-style ninjutsu from the beginning of training to now, to avoid releasing water shock waves to create a combat environment for the opponent.

Unfortunately, Mei Terumi didn't master many earth-style ninjutsu. When she tried to use the "Heart Beheading Technique" to launch a sneak attack on Tachibana Kanagawa, she was discovered and nearly crushed underground by the water wave.

Just as Mei Terumi emerged from the water, a teasing voice reached her ears.

"Water Style*Water Prison Technique"

The surrounding water spiraled up and wrapped around Mei Terumi. As the water rotated, it quickly closed into a sphere more than one meter high, actually locking her directly in the water prison.

But before Jianchuan Ju could say a few polite words.

A short blue figure flashed behind Jianchuan Ju, holding a crystal clear water ball in one hand and gently patting his thighs twice with the other hand.

Jianchuan Ju looked down helplessly and saw that it was Lan Zai who was in the same group with Mei Terumi in this battle.

"Okay, you win."

Jianchuan Ju easily pulled out his arm and released the control of the water prison technique.

"Yeah~"

After coming out of the water dungeon, Mei Terumi immediately went up to Lan Zai and high-fived him happily.

As for where Zabuza is?

As early as the battle started, when Zabuza was about to release the Mist Hidden Technique, he was ambushed and "killed" by Mei Terumi and Lan Zai, and withdrew from the sparring.

"Hey, Zabuza, where did you learn how to stand still and raise one hand high to pose when performing the Mist Hidden Technique? I don't remember you doing this move before?"

Seeing that the winner had been decided, Zabuza, who had just walked over, blushed immediately when he heard this. Fortunately, he was wrapped in bandages so no one could see it.

However, Zabuza's eyes were still wandering around, and he didn't dare to look at Jianchuan Tachibana.

He couldn't say that he had recently seen Mei Terumi's Mist Hidden Technique also involve breathing mist out of her mouth.

The first time I watched it from an outsider's perspective, I found that the spell looked too silly, so maybe he came up with this cool pose himself?

"From now on, when you cast a ninjutsu, never raise your hands again!" Zabuza silently set a rule for himself in his heart.

"Okay, you guys lose today, so you two should treat each other to dinner."

Mei Terumi picked up Lan Zai and looked at Jianchuan Ju with a smile.

Lanzai immediately agreed.

"Quack~(＞＜)"

"I'll treat you."

Qing arrived at the training ground at some point and instantly landed in front of several people.

"Teacher Qing, you came really early today~"

Qing looked up at the sky somewhat embarrassedly, and decided to ignore Mei Terumi's teasing and continue with his own topic.

"Let's go, let's go eat now. It's been a while since I treated you all, teacher."

No one had any objections, and since it was about time, they just packed up their things and prepared to leave.

In fact, the last time Qing treated everyone to a meal was just a few days ago. However, perhaps because it was his first time as a team leader, Qing always felt that he needed to give more.

Afterwards, they went to a barbecue restaurant that they frequented frequently.

While chatting about the training in recent days, we waited for the restaurant to serve the food.

Maybe it’s because the training is very exhausting and it’s the time when they are growing, so the three little ones eat a little too much.

After Qing finished eating, he did not urge anyone else. He just watched his three disciples eat quietly.

Not until Zabuza finally put down his chopsticks did Qing speak at the right time.

"Have you finished eating?"

After seeing the three people and the frog nodded in confirmation, Qing's expression became more serious, and he spoke after a brief pause.

"I have some bad news to tell you. In three days, our team will be ordered to go to the front line."

The three of them were stunned for a moment.

Jianchuan Ju had noticed just now that Qing seemed to be in a bad mood during dinner today, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't expect that his team would go to the battlefield so soon.

The other two were also very surprised.

The main reason is that the daily training and rest have been too regular recently, making everyone forget that the Hidden Mist Village and Konoha are now at war.

And recently, some ninjas in the village often complain.

'The frontline troops have been sent out for half a month, but they are just hiding in the old site of the Whirlpool Country and have not really invaded the Fire Country. This is a bit embarrassing for the Blood Mist Village.' Topics like this.

This made everyone think that this was only the early stages of the war and the village would not send additional troops to the front line in the short term.

"Teacher Qing, is there something wrong on the front line?"

Qing nodded with a somewhat unpleasant expression and replied.

"Yes, the reconnaissance team sent out by the village to the front line happened to run into the ninja team that came to support the border defense."

"Kurochu Raiga, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and Nakayoshi, the leader of the Perception Squad, were attacked in the Land of Fire. The teams they led were almost completely wiped out, and they luckily managed to escape back to the frontline camp."

"what?!"

The three of them exclaimed in surprise at the same time. These two men were definitely not weaklings, but the team they led was completely wiped out.

And Qing actually used the word "lucky" to escape.

Qing looked at the three of them and said in a very serious tone.

"The commander Konoha sent to the front line is Orochimaru!"

This is all the ripples I have, I can only see how much more I can add tomorrow.
