The Otsutsuki Road from Kirigakure

The next morning, Qingsi asked Yuanshi while having breakfast: "Grandpa, I will leave for the mainland soon. Hanzo of Yugakure has challenged the Hokage. What do you think?"

"Hanzo the Salamander, an ambitious man." The Master sighed, "Just be careful and try to collect as much information about Konoha as possible. If a war breaks out and we participate, Konoha will definitely be our biggest target."

"The development of Rain Country has been very fast in recent years, but as a small country, it has almost reached its limit. Hanzo wants to lead Rain Country to become the sixth largest ninja village, so he must expand his territory. Rain Country is adjacent to the Fire, Earth, and Wind countries, so he will definitely choose at least one of them to start a war." The master continued.

"When he challenged the Hokage to a duel this time, he definitely intended to test his strength. He easily forced the Kazekage to retreat, which shows that his strength is far greater than the Third Kazekage. If he finds out that Sarutobi Hiruzen's strength is similar to or stronger than his, then his target will definitely be the Wind Country and the Sand Village. If Sarutobi Hiruzen's strength is not as good as his, then it is possible that he will also attack the Fire Country and Konoha." The master added.

As expected of an old antique who had experienced the Warring States Period and built the ninja village himself, the master's analysis hit the nail on the head. As expected, the arrogant and confident Hanzo attacked Konoha and Sunagakure at the same time.

"Thank you for your advice, grandpa. I'll set off now!" Qingsi was shocked after listening to Master Yuan's analysis. Although he also guessed some of Hanzo's thoughts, they were not as thorough as Master Yuan's.

After bidding farewell to the Master, Qingsi came to the first training ground of the Anbu headquarters, where Yagura, Chinano and others were already waiting for him.

"Captain!" Everyone saluted together.

"Gather at Channel 1 in ten minutes and get ready to go!" Qingsi said to everyone, then went straight to Jian's office.

"Captain, we are ready to set off now. Do you have any other instructions?" Qingsi asked.

"Lord Mizukage has given you an additional secret mission. This is the mission scroll." Jian handed a sealed mission scroll to Qingsi.

"Open it after watching the battle!" Jian added.

"Yes!" Qingsi responded respectfully and turned to leave. Although he was a little curious about the secret mission, he abided by the rules of being an Anbu very well.

At Channel 1, everyone had already assembled. Following Qing Si's command, the sounds of people breaking through the air were heard one after another.

Because this mission was not a combat mission, Kiyoshi not only called on Yagura and Chinano, but also brought four newcomers, Kurisan Kushimaru, Muri Shinpachi, Biwa Juzo, and Ao, to see the world together.

Who is this Qing? He is the one who will later be known as the Byakugan Killer. Now he is the last member of Yagura's Sixth Team.

Qing, who has the ability to perceive, is a talent discovered by Master Yuan, and was specially requested by Qingsi from his grandfather Master Yuan to supplement Yagura's Sixth Team.

-----------------

A group of seven people boarded a merchant ship bound for the Fire Nation. Since they were going to watch the war, and the relationship between the Water and Fire Countries was not tense at the moment, they did not need to hide their identities and could go openly.

Half a month passed quickly, and soon it was July 7th, the day when Hanzo of the Salamander and Hiruzen Sarutobi had their scheduled battle.

At the border between the Rain Country and the Fire Country, a large number of ninjas have already gathered here. These ninjas were all sent by various forces to observe the battle and collect intelligence.

A strong chakra aura came from the direction of the Rain Country, and in the distance, a tall figure wearing a dark blue cloak, a breathing mask, and a giant short-handled sickle with a chain on his back was slowly walking towards them. It was Hanzo Salamander, the leader of the Rain Village.

"Haha! Leader Hanzo is quite confident in his own strength, and he actually comes here alone." Someone among the spectators laughed.

At this time, from the direction of the Land of Fire, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, wearing a Hokage robe and a Hokage hat, also slowly walked over with his two friends Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En, as well as two teams of Anbu protecting them.

Feeling Hanzo's rising domineering aura, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not to be outdone, and an equally powerful chakra aura burst out from him.

The chakra auras of the two rushed towards each other and collided violently in mid-air.

The battle broke out in an instant.

Sarutobi Hiruzen formed a seal with one hand, summoned a huge shuriken, and threw it towards Hanzo with force.

"Ninja Technique: Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!"

The huge shurikens flew towards Hanzo at a high speed, and white smoke continued to emerge during the flight. One became two, two became four, four became eight, and countless huge shurikens covered the sky.

On the side of the Salamander Hanzo, when he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen taking action, he decisively increased his speed, picked up the sickle behind him with his right hand, and kept spinning the chain with his left hand, and rushed towards the dense group of shurikens.
