Konoha: The New Will of Fire

country of waves.

Naruto and the three little ghosts talked and laughed with Tazuna, walking happily on the road. As they got closer and closer to home, the fear in Tazuna's heart gradually dissipated, replaced by the joy of going home to see his family.

Tatsuna introduced the special products and customs of the Land of Waves to the three of them. Sakura and Naruto were very interested in hearing this. For them, who had left the Land of Fire for the first time, a maritime country like the Land of Waves, Interesting everywhere.

Although Zuosuke was also listening, he focused part of his mind on observing the surroundings, alert to the ninja who might appear at any time.

The four of them walked slowly on the road. They passed by a depression filled with various puddles. Such places can be seen everywhere in the Kingdom of Waves.

The Country of Waves is originally a small country on the sea. It often experiences various typhoons and storms, so the climate here is similar to the Country of Rain to a certain extent. Most of the time it is stormy weather.

A large number of puddles have caused an abundance of water vapor around them, resulting in dense fog. The fog gets bigger as you go inside.

Sakura was puzzled: "How could this happen? Isn't the Country of Waves an island? Why is there so much fog all of a sudden?"

Dazna heard the words and explained: "This is because of the geographical factors of the Country of Waves. Although the Country of Waves is an island on the sea, there are many mountains on the island. The place we are passing now is in the middle of a valley. The terrain is low-lying. There is enough water vapor in the Land of Upper Waves, so there will be a lot of fog at the bottom of the valley.”

Sakura suddenly understood after hearing this and nodded seriously.

Naruto also followed, as if he understood, walking at the front of the team, observing the surroundings easily, without any sense of urgency to face the enemy.

On the contrary, Zuosuke lost his previous lazy posture. He observed the surroundings vigilantly. The kunai slid down his sleeves and fell into the middle of his palm. As long as there was the slightest movement, he would take action with thunder.

Although it was Zuosuke's first time to participate in actual combat, thanks to the improvement of the course, the military ninja got rid of the waste of words and put more attention and learning energy into actual combat.

Therefore, although Zuozhu had no real experience in actual combat, he studied the teaching in the school very seriously. He knew very well that this foggy situation was the best place for an ambush. If it were him, , will definitely choose here.

Therefore, Zuosuke must remain vigilant anytime and anywhere. The sudden attack by those ninjas a few days ago made Zuosuke clearly aware that enemies may appear at any time during the execution of the mission.

Not to mention, they are currently performing A-level missions. What is an A-level mission? It is a high-level mission second only to S-level missions. S-level missions are related to national security. Such missions are usually for elite jounin. Or only a jounin team can execute it.

A mission of this level is not something that their genin can get involved in, even if it is an A-level mission. The A-level mission description means that for a mission of this level, the opponent must be a jounin, at least at the jounin level.

Jounin is the elite among ninjas. Only shadow-level warriors can be superior to jounin. Jounin-level ninjas are already very powerful in terms of combat power and experience.

Although Zuosuke is very confident in his own strength, he is not confident enough to fight against the Jonin. Although there is Kakashi-sensei next to him, there is not necessarily only one Jonin. If there are two or more, then they will be in danger. .

Thinking of this, Zuosuke became more vigilant.

At this moment, Kakashi's eyes darkened, and his face was particularly solemn, because he felt that the surrounding fog had become thicker, and the thickness was abnormal.

Kakashi subconsciously sensed it and found that the mist seemed to be blocking his perception. Kakashi instantly realized something was wrong.

He immediately shouted to Naruto in front of him: "Naruto, Sakura, protect Mr. Tazuna, there are enemies."

Naruto and Sakura were startled when they heard Kakashi-sensei's voice. The next second they reacted, they quickly rushed towards the panicked Tazuna.

But at this moment, the attack came.

stop…

Amidst the harsh sound of breaking through the air, several shurikens suddenly rushed out of the thick fog, heading straight towards Naruto and Sakura.

The opponent had a very good opportunity, and the position from which the shuriken came out was also very tricky. Naruto and Sakura had to stop and deal with the shuriken first. If they didn't do this, they would be hit by the shuriken. Naturally All are dangerous.

Therefore, Naruto and Sakura could only stop and deal with the shurikens that appeared in front of them.

But Naruto and Sakura stalled, leaving Tatsuna without anyone to protect him. Kakashi's heart sank when he saw this. From this brief confrontation, he could already tell that the other party was definitely not a simple jounin.

Opponents should not be underestimated. Thinking of this, Kakashi was about to rush towards Dazuna, but at this moment, several Senbons rushed out of the thick fog.

Qianbon flew through the air, leaving two white trails wherever it passed.

Seeing this scene, Kakashi's eyes tightened slightly, and he was a little surprised, but now, Kakashi had no time to think too much, the kunai flew out of his hand and shot towards Senbon. The next second, the sword flashed and Senbon broke.

But just as Kakashi was delayed, a black shadow rushed out of the thick fog.

At this moment, the fog was very thick and the visibility was less than one meter. When the black shadow rushed out, it was already in front of Dazna. No one expected that the attack would come so suddenly and so close.

call…

Amidst the sound that was enough to pierce the eardrums, a large knife tore through the dense fog and struck straight at Dazna's head.

When Dazna saw the attack coming, he was completely frightened. His legs were so scared that he lost consciousness. He couldn't feel anything and couldn't move. He could only watch the attack coming.

In this flash of lightning, when even the secretly attacking Zabuza thought he wanted his hand, a figure appeared in front of Dazuna.

He slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of blood-red eyes. It was Zuosuke.

File clang!

There was a harsh sound of gold and iron clashing, the kunai and the decapitating sword collided, and the fire shot out.

When Zabuza saw the bloody Sharingan exposed, he could no longer conceal his shock: "Sharingan, Uchiha clan!"

At the same time, Zuosuke felt the power coming from his arm, and felt a huge surge of force. The next second, this force spread along the body and spread to every corner of the body.

Zuosuke felt that his body was out of control. The next second, his whole body flew out. Zuosuke flew out and hit Dazuna hard.

With a loud noise, Dazuna suffered a heavy blow, screamed, flew out with Sasuke, and fell heavily to the ground.

"hateful!"

When Zabuza saw the attack being blocked by Zuosuke, he felt annoyed and without any time to think about it, he waved the decapitating sword in his hand and continued to charge forward, carrying tens of thousands of tons of power, as if he wanted to completely cut Tatsuna in half.

Zuosuke, who was lying on the ground, saw Zabuza attacking and struggled to get up, but Zabuza was faster and could only watch the sword slash down.
