He lives in Hokage and controls the ninja world by cultivating immortality.

Earthy yellow rocks are scattered all around, and huge diamond-shaped rocks can be seen everywhere, adding a simple and heavy feeling to the vast land.

After taking care of the Fuma ninjas on the road, Li Ke and the others had no big obstacles on their way.

The surrounding geography showed that this place was close to the territory of the Kingdom of Earth, which indicated that it was much closer to their front line.

At the same time, the smell of gunpowder smoke became more pervasive in this place, and there were more kunai of various ninja tools scattered on the ground.

Having learned from the past, Team Samyi understood that perhaps when they really set foot on the front line, they would have to face more deaths.

Everyone felt a little heavy as they walked along.

Troy looked up at the sky, his eyes looking a little sad. The death of his three companions seemed to still linger in his heart.

"When will this damn war end?"

Samyi glanced at Troy sideways, with a cold expression still on his face.

"This may be the mission of our ninjas. If we reach the front line earlier and contribute our own strength earlier, so that we can repel Iwagakure as soon as possible, we may be one step closer to peace. We should not be sentimental now."

Samui told the truth, only if Kumogakure wins can they achieve a stable peace.

But Li Ke, who was next to him, shook his head slightly after hearing these words.

"No, as long as there are people in the world, there can never be true peace."

Samyi and Troy looked at Li Ke in surprise, with confusion and confusion in their eyes.

Li Ke smiled.

"Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are bound to be conflicts. Since the establishment of Ninja Village, every ten or twenty years, when the next generation grows up, a ninja war will always break out. Now is the Third Ninja War, we are all participating in it, and maybe our descendants will also participate in the Fourth Ninja War."

These words made Samyi and Troy fall silent. What Li Ke said was the truth, and they could not refute it.

The breeze blew, adding a chill to everyone's heart.

"Is there really no peace?" Troy's tone was a bit unbelievable. For the first time, he felt that the word peace was so far away from him, as if it would never be possible to catch it.

Li Ke also pondered for a moment.

"At least it's not possible now!"

"That's right, but at least we have to protect the peace of Kumogakure now, and we can only leave the future to the future." Samyi's words made the final conclusion. All they can defend now is the tranquility in front of them. That's all, maybe we have to face death again tomorrow.

The few people said no more and continued to move forward quickly.

Twenty minutes later, Samyi suddenly waved his hand, and the team members stopped collectively and took defensive postures.

Someone was rushing towards this direction in front of them. Even though the other party was still far away from them, everyone could faintly feel that the chakra coming from that direction was very strong, much stronger than the Fuma ninja they encountered before.

Troy clenched his knives tightly and choked on his saliva.

"Can you feel clearly how many people there are on the other side?"

Samyi, who has a strong sense of perception, nodded.

"There are only two people on the other side, but the chakra is extremely powerful. Both of them are at the level of jounin."

This news made everyone's mood worse, but fortunately Li Ke, who had been putting his hands on the ground and closing his eyes, spoke.

"But don't get too nervous, they're wearing the same clothes as us."

When he said this, everyone's nerves jumped. Could it be that friendly forces had appeared. To be on the safe side, Samyi asked all the team members to hide temporarily. Not long after, the two people appeared near where Samyi and others were hiding.

I saw a man with dark skin, tall stature, white hair, and two swords on his back. On his right arm there was a capital word "Thunder", but it was black.

When this person appeared, Samyi felt that there was no need for everyone to hide, because the other party must have felt their location long ago.

Samyi made a gesture to signal all the team members to come out, and then she walked out, came to the jounin, and respectfully performed a Kumogakure military salute.

"Lord Darrey."

Darei nodded without a smile, glanced behind Samyi, and the surrounding team members also came out one after another.

Li Ke stared at the Jonin in front of him. Although he didn't recognize him, the conspicuous black thunder character on Darei's right shoulder only represented one meaning to Kumogakure, the personal guard of the contemporary Raikage.

"I received a message from your psychic beast, so I rushed here. Didn't you get ambushed by Iwa Ninja along the way?"

"Yes." After hearing Darei's inquiry, Samyi told everything about his previous encounter with the Fuma Ninja.

Finally, he added: "The successful escape from the Fuma Ninja is thanks to Li Ke."

Upon hearing this, Darei stared at Li Ke for two seconds, but said nothing more.

Now that he had received this team, Darrey turned around with the Jonin beside him, and without saying much, ran directly in the direction of the Cloud Stepping Bridge.

When Samyi and others saw this, they quickly followed them without any time to think.

The jounin's unsmiling and decisive behavior made Li Ke, Samyi and others feel a layer of gloom in their hearts. Perhaps Darei's attitude also meant that the war ahead was not optimistic.

As they ran, several people looked at each other and exchanged their feelings.

But at this moment, Darrey in front suddenly stopped, and Li Ke and others behind him also stopped.

The ninja next to Darei raised one hand to the tip of his nose, and the sensory ninjutsu was already being emitted.

"Darei, that's the dense forest ahead. They should have just arrived there not long ago. Judging from their chakra attributes, they should be from Konoha."

Darei looked at the dense forest in front of him and couldn't help but sneered.

Iwagakure's encirclement and reinforcements were indeed very powerful. Not only did they set up ambushes on the road and deceived their Kumogakure team one after another, but now they also pulled in people from Konoha.

Darrey slowly pulled out the sword from his waist, but only half of it was pulled out. Darrey suddenly stopped and looked at the Samyi team behind him.

Pointing to the dense forest ahead.

"The battle ahead is tense. I won't give you too much time. If you don't deal with the Konoha ninjas in the forest within 10 minutes, as a jounin, I will judge that you are not capable enough and I won't be able to take you to the front." How meaningful it is, it’s more appropriate for you to stay here.”

As soon as these words came out, Samyi and others' expressions all changed.
