After hearing what Neji said, Naruto and the others finally felt relieved.

Kakashi looked at Kai and asked calmly, "What is your mission? Can you tell me?"

Kai picked up a cookie, stuffed it into his mouth, and smiled with satisfaction:

"There's nothing to hide. The mission is not kept secret from our own people. Our mission this time is to protect the chakra cannon delivery in the Hidden Cloud Area."

Kakashi nodded, thought about it carefully, and shrugged, "Then it will probably be easy for you."

After all, no one would actively run into the barrel of a gun, as that would be seeking death.

Kai shook his head and said, "Not necessarily. Some guys are looking for death and you can't stop them."

Kakashi thought this made sense.

He immediately lay back, lying comfortably on the soft grass, and then took out a serious novel from his pocket to cover his face.

The informal novels he once liked are no longer written by anyone, so his hobbies have changed.

"Huh?" Kai said disdainfully, "Kakashi, is this how you welcome a guest?"

Kakashi said lazily, "Why don't you go on the mission?"

"Leave tomorrow morning!"

"Is that something you can say?"

Kakashi was surprised.

In this way, it seems that the ninja village does not take the Oborozuki organization seriously at all and has begun to look down on its opponent strategically.

But this time the ninja village activated the chakra cannon of the Hidden Cloud Area, obviously not underestimating the opponent.

This is in line with the current style of the ninja village.

After all, the Ninja Village is no longer the Ninja Village of the past. It is now so powerful that even the villagers themselves are not aware of it.

Perhaps, only the guards in the armories of the five major ninja areas know how terrifying the behemoth Konoha is today.

"Well, there is no explicit request for confidentiality."

Kai chuckled.

"Okay." Kakashi said nothing more.

Since Team Kai has already received the mission, if everything goes well, they will also receive the mission soon.

Unless the Ninja Village has other more important tasks to assign to them.

Kakashi was not worried about the outbreak of war because his team had no mission.

He was just afraid that Naruto and Sasuke could not suppress their eagerness to go to the battlefield.

Right now, Sakura was happily chatting with Tenten.

Tenten asks Sakura about medical ninjutsu, and Sakura is happy to explain it to him.

Lee then began to sell Naruto the green tights that he and Gai were wearing.

Naruto didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he couldn't just reject Kai like Kakashi did.

Sasuke suddenly stood up.

He looked at Neji who was sitting and tasting pastries, and asked with interest: "Lian Lian?"

Neji frowned slightly, thought about it seriously, and wanted to refuse Sasuke's invitation.

Tomorrow's mission.

Before departure.

As a ninja, it is naturally best not to have any accidents, otherwise it will affect the execution of the mission.

However, the one who invited him to fight was Sasuke, a man with a halo among the new generation of Konoha ninjas, and also the opponent he wanted to compete with.

Think carefully for three seconds.

Neji swallowed the pastry in his mouth, stood up slowly, untied the water bag around his waist, took a sip of water, and looked at Might Guy beside him.

Although his eyes did not contain any emotion.

But obviously Kai also knew it.

This is to seek the opinion of his teacher.

Kai was very pleased.

This disciple of his own has an outstanding foundation and a gentle personality. He usually respects his teacher and peers.

Kai nodded heavily and said:

"Since Kakashi and I were unable to have a man-to-man duel, I'll give this opportunity to you!"

Although Kai is talking nonsense.

But he also agreed to this competition.

Being a teacher.

Who doesn't want his apprentice to stand up for him?

Hearing the noise, Kakashi immediately took off the novel that was covering his face and glanced at Sasuke.

He frowned.

Obviously worried about this sudden confrontation.

Kakashi didn't want to cause any trouble as he was about to go out on a mission.

Sasuke glanced at Kakashi and assured him:

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Kakashi quickly stood up and said in a deep voice:

"On tap."

Sasuke nodded, then looked at Neji.

Naruto grinned, quickly stood up, and said anxiously: "Ningji, please consider sparring with me. I've been itching to do it lately."

Li hurriedly entangled Naruto, "Naruto, wait, I haven't explained to you the sweat-absorbing ability of this tights yet."

"..." Naruto looked bitter.

At this moment, it was as if ten thousand flies were buzzing around him.

"you……"

Naruto just showed his impatience.

Li, who was holding up a new pair of tights and selling them, had a depressed look on his face.

Naruto was instantly defeated.

He really couldn't bear to see his companions feel lost and sad because of his rejection.

Neji looked at Sasuke who was full of confidence in front of him, after receiving Gai's message of consent.

He replied seriously:

"it is good!"

Swah——

The two of them used the instant body technique at the same time, their figures turned into black shadows and disappeared on the spot like lightning.

When he appeared again, he was already on the grass a hundred meters away from everyone else.

"Please give me more advice."

Neji immediately got into the state, adopting a gentle fist stance, then veins bulged in his eye sockets and forehead, and he opened his Byakugan.

From his perspective.

The Yin-Yang fish appeared under his feet, and all the surrounding energy fluctuations were imprinted in his eyes.

"Please advise!"

Sasuke's expression froze.

The scarlet three-magatama Sharingan emerged, and his own aura rose, and the chakra meridians in his body also flowed, starting to refine chakra.

He certainly wouldn't look down on Neji.

Obviously, the Hyuga clan, who know the Byakugan, are best at defensive counterattacks.

Sasuke did not impulsively launch the first attack.

He has the Sharingan.

In fact, he is also good at defensive counterattacks.

Seeing that Sasuke didn't move.

Ningji did not wait any longer, but used his palms to drive the surrounding air flow like a dragon.

Immediately, he pointed his toes, the weeds swayed, and his whole body turned into a shadow, causing a strong wind. Then he slid along the ground like an arrow, and his right palm cut directly into the acupuncture point under Sasuke's collarbone.

The speed of this palm was dazzling, and Naruto stood up suddenly in shock.

Even Kakashi looked serious.

This kind of speed.

This kind of power.

Obviously, the genius young man from the Hyuga clan led by Kai is as powerful as an ordinary jonin.

However, when Neji got close to Sasuke and swung this palm, Sasuke's scarlet Sharingan moved, and his hard-trained body enabled him to react quickly.

And the Rinnegan predicted the landing point of Neci's attack. Sasuke fell backwards, supported himself with his hands and flipped over. After dodging Neci's palm, he stood up and swept a powerful whip kick at Neci's left leg with his side knee.

The purpose, of course, is to make Neci temporarily lose his ability to move flexibly.

However, Neji seemed to have predicted the direction of Sasuke's attack. He twisted his left foot and dodged the whip kick in a strange posture. He gathered momentum with his soft fist again and slammed towards Sasuke's chest.

Sasuke stared at the punch.

I just felt for a moment.

The fist hadn't arrived yet, but the sharp wind from it had already landed on him.

Sasuke exerted force suddenly and retreated backwards. During this time, he threw out a smoke bomb.

bang——

Smoke billows.

Obstructing vision.

Taking the opportunity to leap back, Sasuke formed seals with his hands, condensed chakra in his abdomen, and then exhaled suddenly through his mouth: "Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique!"

In an instant, dozens of fireballs wrapped in kunai fell like a rainstorm. Neji drew a circle with his arms and scanned the kunai rain falling from the sky.

His white eyes have already controlled the surrounding perspective.

"Back to the days!!"

In an instant, the rapidly spinning Kaiten appeared like a silver moon. After the fireball hit the Kaiten, the kunai inside was ejected in all directions by the whirlpool, and the flames turned into fire waves that spread around.

Duo——

One of the kunai flew straight towards Naruto.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

“……”Naruto’s pupils suddenly shrank.

He complained at the top of his voice:

"Sasuke is seeking personal revenge!!"

However, before the kunai could fall on Naruto, Lee, who was holding the tights, had already jumped up and kicked at the kunai, kicking the flying kunai away.

"..."

Naruto's eyes widened.

Obviously.

If he didn't listen carefully to Davis' introduction of the tights, Davis' big feet would probably kick him on the head. This was no joke.

"Haha!" After kicking the kunai away, Li continued to pester Naruto to explain the effects of the tights as if nothing had happened.

Just this time.

Li discovered that Naruto seemed to be persuaded by him, which was an unexpected surprise.

And the other side.

After Sasuke landed, he didn't stop, but slightly bent the fingers of his right palm.

chirp——

Thunder roared and lightning flashed.

Thousands of birds are singing.

The electric arc instantly wrapped around Sasuke and condensed into a Chidori with electric current running through his palm.

"In this case, can you still use Kaiten to resist?" Sasuke stared calmly at Neji in front of him, and then his figure turned into an afterimage again, and this time, it was like a straight blue electric arc, shooting straight forward.

"!!" Kai's eyes widened. Even though he was far away, he felt that the strong light of Chidori was irritating his eyes.

"Has it become this strong?"

Kai gasped.

That strong arc.

It was obviously even more frightening than Kakashi's Raikiri.

Kai looked towards Kakashi hastily.

But Kakashi said in a deep voice:

"Get ready to rescue people!"

Kai finally reacted, and immediately turned his head to stare at Kakashi, and asked in a deep voice: "How did you teach him to improve so quickly?"

Kakashi was silent.

It would be nice if he taught me this.

Kai said in a deep voice:

"I'm afraid his strength is no longer inferior to ours, right?"

"His strength is locked by the Sharingan. Once he breaks through the Mangekyō, it will be almost done."

Kakashi sighed.

"..." Kai groaned: "You haven't told me yet, how did you teach them?"

Kakashi shook his head.

The two men stared at the battlefield, ready to rescue people from the two guys who were attacking them.

However, something unexpected happened afterwards.

After seeing the blinding electric arc and the powerful Chidori that almost covered more than ten meters, Neji gave up resistance reluctantly.

It's not that he doesn't want to keep fighting.

But from seeing the chakra surging in Sasuke's body during that brief moment of his Byakugan, Neji knew that the two were not on the same level at all, and this battle was basically meaningless.

In an instant, Sasuke was in front of Neji.

chirp——

The violent Chidori blasted towards Neji, but in the end, it did not fall completely. Instead, it hovered above Neji who had just finished Kaiten.

"..."

Sasuke calmed the agitated breath in his chest and immediately dispersed the power of thunder that was gathering in his palm.

"Thank you." Sasuke said calmly.

Neji nodded.

Then he smiled and said, "Very strong."

When your elders say you are strong, it may be out of politeness, but when your peers say you are strong, then you are really strong.

Even Sasuke today felt very happy when he heard this.

Sasuke shook his head and said nothing.

he thinks.

He felt that his victory was somewhat unfair. After all, the person he should be challenging right now should be Neji's mentor, Sensei Gai.

Feeling a little guilty, Sasuke decided to find Kakashi's peers to exchange ideas with next time.

However, among Kakashi’s peers, the strongest one seems to be his father.

Sasuke suddenly had an idea.

Go and discuss this with your father yourself.

"..."

Sasuke felt a chill run down his spine.

Even though he possessed the Mangekyō and could activate the Susanoo, he did not dare to propose the idea of ​​sparring with his father.

The two returned to the dining area, where they were greeted by applause and relief from Sakura and Tenten.

Kai smiled at Neji: "Ningji, you've done a great job!"

Kakashi shook his head speechlessly.

Sasuke and Naruto, who have inherited the Six Paths Sage's legacy, have now completely widened the gap with their peers. It would seem impolite if they were to compete with them.

Naruto sighed:

"You two haven't even broken a sweat, what kind of sparring is this? You should just let me do it!"

Neji and Sasuke both fell into deep thought.

At this moment, a black shadow appeared and landed steadily in front of Kakashi.

This was the Anbu wearing an animal mask. He slowly stood up, handed the seal scroll in his hand to Kakashi, and said respectfully:

"This is the combat mission that Lady Tsunade personally gave to your team. You must strictly follow the schedule."

"Yes--"

Kakashi took the scroll.

Then turn it on.

Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura immediately gathered around Kakashi and looked at the mission scroll together.

Since this is a task assigned to their team, they can naturally read the task content together without being shy about keeping it secret.

It is clearly written on the scroll.

At five o'clock tomorrow morning, the puppet army from the Sand Village will set out for the Land of Lightning.

Main tasks.

They are the puppet masters who protect the Sand Village before and after the war.

Of course, the mission did not require keeping it secret from fellow ninjas in the same village.

Might Guy was surprised and said, "I didn't expect that you would receive the mission so soon."

Kakashi nodded and said:

"I have already guessed that this operation will go very smoothly if nothing unexpected happens."

After all, this is the first war against the outside world after the merger of the five major ninja villages.

And now, after gathering together, the army is approaching the Land of Lightning. Konoha, which has gathered the five major ninja villages, is attacking a loose organization. Kakashi really can't imagine how they will lose.

Therefore, their team would naturally not be entrusted with important tasks, but would instead set out with the main army.

"Really? Then what is your mission?" Kai asked curiously, "If it needs to be kept secret, then you don't have to tell us."

"If it needs to be kept secret, I won't tell you." Kakashi sighed, "It's almost the same as you, but we are going to escort the puppet army in the Sand Village."
