Konoha's Approval System

Kushina leaned down and pushed aside the clods of soil and hay on the ground, revealing a bright red blood stain, with scattered shurikens next to it.

“There was a battle here”

After Kushina made a judgment, she immediately became alert and ordered her team members: "Enter combat alert state."

The three members of the first class were all aware of the seriousness of the matter. Just like the prepared postures they had trained in the past, the three Chuan Yuenan should now be in a back-to-back position to check what was going on around them.But Asuma still didn't bother to hang out with the two brats, lowered his body and looked around.

Chuanyue Nan had to go back to back with Zhisui and look at the surrounding environment.The dark forest, the dim light, and the smell of blood on the ground made everyone feel that the world had changed.

Unlike Shisui and Asuma who were in a state of alert, Funan Yuonan was not too nervous. He had already used his inner eye to observe that there was basically no sign of chakra activity from the past to the current outpost.

This showed that there were no enemies around, and there were no ninjas from the same village at the outpost.

Relying on many years of mission experience, Kushina directed the three of them to carefully check the surroundings to make sure there was no enemy ambush, and then walked towards the outpost.

As soon as the group walked into the outpost, they were made nauseous and vomited by the overwhelming stench.The corpses of the security team members stationed at the outpost were thrown in a mess on the ground. Because of the hot weather, they had long since rotted and were unrecognizable.

Kushina's forehead was twisted into a knot: "We were attacked here. Three team members are dead, and the other one is missing."

Chuan Yuenan covered his nose and looked at the tragic death of the defenders. He had already judged in his heart that something big had happened.No matter who killed this team, it was a naked provocation. It seemed that the other party had made a decision and was ready to start a war.

"Who could have done it?" Shisui looked around, not wanting to ignore any clues.Wherever ninjas have fought, there will always be traces of the battle, from which some conditions can be judged.

Asuma stroked a long cutting mark on the wall and snorted: "This is the mark left by the wind attribute chakra. It seems that the opponent who attacked the guard team is most likely a user of wind escape ninjutsu."

Asuma is a ninja who uses wind-type chakra, and he firmly believes in this.

"Most of the ninjas who use Wind Release Ninjutsu are Sunagakure's people, right? Could it be that Sunagakure did something good?" Shisui speculated.

Asuma picked up a toothpick and said: "Who else could it be if they weren't them? This is the border of the Kingdom of Wind. Who knows what they are thinking. Kushina-sensei, what should we do now?"

Kushina looked at the traces of wind escape ninjutsu left on the wall, her expression becoming more and more solemn: "It seems that the situation is critical and must be reported to the Third Generation immediately."

"Wait a minute." Chuan Yuenan walked towards one of the corpses at this time, leaned down, chased away the flies, and looked at it carefully.

"Hey Chuan Yuenan, what are you doing?" Asma frowned.

Funan Yuonan slowly stood up and said to Kushina: "Kushina-sensei, although most of the wounds on the corpse are cutting wounds, the fatal ones are penetrating wounds and are not caused by wind escape ninjutsu. I have never seen such a wound, do you know?”

Chuan Yuenan had actually seen such a wound before, which was a penetrating wound from a thunder attribute chakra knife.He had a deep understanding of this in his previous battle with Arumo.But there were some things he didn't want to say clearly, as that would only bring trouble, so he could only guide Kushina gradually.

Kushina squeezed a smile out of her mouth and patted Funan Yuonan on the shoulder: "You can see it right. The wounds on the corpse were obviously penetrating wounds caused by thunder escape. The person who killed them should be able to use thunder escape attachment ninjutsu." ."

"Ah" Asuma threw the toothpick and asked in confusion: "Does the opponent know both escape techniques? I have heard of this thunder escape attachment technique, which is suitable for surprise and attack. If you add wind escape, like this Ninjas are rare."

Zhisui said at this time: "It should be the thunder escape ninja who killed the defense team members and then used the wind escape to cover up. The opponent was hiding his identity."

Kushina looked at her beloved disciple's reasonable analysis and smiled knowingly: "I think that's the case too."

Funan Yuonan was very satisfied at this time. It seemed that his worries were unnecessary. Kushina was very powerful and this little trick could not confuse her.

In fact, Chuan Yuenan had already seen the clues. The traces of wind escape ninjutsu on the body and the wall were used to cover up the penetrating wounds of the body.

The four-person guard team should have one jounin and the rest should be chuunin.In order to get rid of an enemy with such strength, the opponent must use the Thunder Release Ninjutsu to make a surprise attack and kill them quickly to achieve victory.

Later, because someone in the guard team escaped, the sneak attack might be exposed, so the other party arranged a leeward cutting mark. From this point of view, it seemed that this was a premeditated action.No matter who the opponent is, the best way now is to spread the news back to the village.

"The one who is good at this kind of lightning attribute weapon attachment technique must be Kumogakure." Kushina said secretly, she had already seen the original purpose of the attack: "Kumogakure sneak attack on Konoha border guard post, blaming Sunagakure , thereby provoking disputes and benefiting from them.”

"First class, listen up."

Kushina guessed the intention behind the incident and immediately took measures: "Now we are divided into two groups. I will be in one group to find the escaped companions. The second group of three of you will bring this news back to the village immediately."

Knowing that Kushina had already made up her mind, Funagawa and Shisui immediately adjusted their state and prepared to execute the order.At this time, Asuma suddenly stood up and stared at Kushina: "Kushina-sensei, is there anything else you forgot to explain?"

Kushina looked at him in confusion: "What else?"

"Now that the three of us have reorganized, should we choose a captain?" Asma turned his face sideways and made an inappropriate request, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

"Oh. I really forgot." Kushina continued: "Because Asuma is the oldest and very strong, I accept Asuma as the captain and have full authority over the information transmission team."

Asma paused, then ordered to Shisui and Funan Yuenan: "Okay, the mission has been clearly explained, Asma team, let's go now."

"What a move at this time." Chuan Yuenan couldn't help but feel a little bored, and thought to himself: "He is truly worthy of being the son of the third generation."

Three figures left the post.

After finding the correct direction, the three-person team began to return to the village.Shisui frequently looked back at the outpost building that was gradually going away, his eyes full of worry, as if he was a son who was leaving his mother.

Funan Yuonan saw Shisui's emotional changes and said to him with a smile: "Don't worry about Kushina-sensei, she is very strong."
