Naruto: Blood Mist Escape

One night a month later, the Kirigakure ninja team that set out on Operation Wave returned to the Kirigakure Village.

When Commander Xiguashan Fugugui led the remaining troops to the village gate, the only people who greeted them at the village gate were Fukui Daisuke, the captain of the Anbu directly under the Mizukage, and his three guards, a total of four people.

The Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon looked at the Mizukage Anbu guard Fukui Daisuke with surprise and anger in his eyes.

The puffer ghost, who had been in the upper echelons for a long time, understood that it was extremely shameful for the village because he led the team to an expedition and suffered heavy losses.

Even so, such a cold reception still made Xiguashan Puffer Ghost feel hot and humiliated. Not to mention asking the village to hold a grand welcoming ceremony for him and others, but the attitude of sending a secret department to greet them and deal with the matter made Xiguashan Puffer Ghost secretly resentful.

After receiving the Xiguashan Puffer Demon Team, Fukui Daisuke, the captain of the Anbu directly under the Mizukage, conveyed the condolences of the Fourth Mizukage Yagura Karuta, and then announced the team's division, allowing the returning ninjas to go home and rest.

Wuxin and the others who followed the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost were extremely tired after fighting outside for more than half a year. After receiving the order to disband, they left the team without hesitation and went home to rest.

Only the Xiguashan Puffer Demon and several of his direct Anbu subordinates were left standing in a mess.

......

next day

early morning

"Wang Wang!"

Accompanied by Wangcai's shouting, Wuxin woke up quietly on the bed.

"Wang!"

Wangcai was squatting on the ground beside the bed, sticking out his tongue and wagging his tail. Although he was a dog, you could tell from his expression that he was very happy.

Wuxin, who was awakened by Wangcai, slowly got up from the bed, stretched, got out of bed and put on his clothes.

Wangcai saw Wuxin get up, so he walked around the bed, came to Wuxin's feet, and rubbed Wuxin's calves.

Wuxin quickly put on his clothes, patted Wangcai's head, and said with a smile:

"I'm going to cook, go play by yourself."

Seeing his beloved dog, Wuxin was in a very good mood.

The ninja dog Wangcai is smart. He usually either stays at home or strolls on the streets. Since Wangcai has a forehead protector around his neck, the villagers all know that he is the ninja dog of a certain ninja, so they don't make things difficult for him. He lives a very happy life in the village.

Wuxin started the stove to cook and soon the rice porridge was ready.

The breakfast for one person and one dog is rice porridge with two boiled eggs, which is warm and nourishing.

After finishing his meal, Wuxin took a long knife and went to the yard.

In the past, he practiced kunai throwing and the like in the yard, but now he has started to learn swordsmanship. Under the guidance of the senior ninja Takami Yoshiyuki, he has made good progress in basic swordsmanship.

Now that I have time, I can practice my swordsmanship in the yard.

Under the early morning sun, Wuxin's forehead was covered with sweat. After practicing basic swordsmanship several times, all the kunai targets in the yard were destroyed and cut into several pieces and scattered around the yard.

After finishing his morning exercise, Wuxin sheathed his sword, looked at the sawdust on the ground, and muttered:

"I have already mastered kunai throwing. Removing it will make the yard more spacious and prevent it from getting in the way and affecting my sword practice."

After morning exercise, Wuxin cleaned the yard. After finishing, he returned to the bathroom in the house, wiped his body, put on his clothes, left home and walked towards the Mizukage Building.

The Mizukage's Anbu guards had instructed last night that after resting, they would go to the Mizukage Building during the day to report on the status of Operation Wave. Wuxin did not forget the important matter and walked towards the Mizukage Building at a leisurely pace.

After arriving at the Mizukage building, I went straight to the Mizukage's office on the fourth floor and knocked on the door.

"Please come in"

The voice of Mizukage Karuta Yagura was heard in the office.

Wuxin pushed the door open and walked in. He bowed slightly to the Fourth Mizukage Karatachi Yagura who was writing something on the Mizukage's desk and greeted him:

"Mizukage-sama!"

“Wuxin, you’re here.

Your coming back alive has made me feel a little less disgusted with that fool Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost."

When Goju Yagura saw Wuxin, he stopped writing and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile.

"It's a bit difficult to fight against the Sunagakure ninjas in the desert. However, it's not easy for an organization like Sunagakure that can't even protect its leader to kill me."

Wuxin lightly pointed out the disadvantages in the restraint of ninjutsu in the battlefield of the Wind Country, and made a tactful excuse for the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Ghost.

After all, the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost took good care of him. Although he always ran away, when the army was in real trouble, he still took responsibility and fought hard until he fainted.

So although Wu Xin can’t say that he likes the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost, he definitely doesn’t hate it. If we talk about his favorability, it’s at least above average.

Karuju Yagura put away his gentle smile and sneered:

"Heh, which battlefield isn't difficult? Wasn't it difficult to harass the Fire Nation team? Why hasn't there been a situation like his?

In the battlefields of the Fire Nation, the Wind Nation, and the small battlefields that harassed other nations, only the team of that useless Xiguashan Puffer Ghost suffered heavy losses.

If he hadn’t been in charge…”

Karuju Yagura paused here, as if realizing that he had said too much, and changed the subject, saying:

"But the pufferfish ghost still protected the young seedling that I specifically asked you to pay special attention to, and didn't let you die on the battlefield.

Tell me about your experience on the battlefield of Wind Country."

"Yes..."

Wuxin nodded in agreement and then began to recount his experiences on the battlefield in the Wind Country, adding a little bit of exaggeration to his stories. He also described his battle against the Sand Village heroes Yekura and Luosha in a very vivid and thrilling manner.

He gave a very detailed description of how he looted the oasis in the Land of Wind, encountered the rebel ninja Red Sand Scorpion, and the battle in which Red Sand Scorpion controlled a puppet that could use iron sand. In the end, he expressed his own judgment that the puppet that could use iron sand might be the Third Kazekage.

When reporting on work, one naturally has to focus on one's own contribution. As for the contribution of teammate Anbu Shark, Wu Xin just mentioned it in a few words in understatement.

The contribution of erasing Hoshigaki Kisame was to not affect the subordinates of Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon, Hoshigaki Kisame, who was transferred away by the Mizukage because of his excellence.

After all, Hoshigaki Kisame respects Xiguashan Pufferfish Demon very much and seems to admire his leader very much and has no intention of breaking him up.

Secondly, Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost took some care of Wuxin. Although Mizukage Yagura said that it was because of his special instructions, Wuxin already had a preconceived impression of Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost and tried his best to prevent his capable subordinates from being poached, lest he really became a commander without troops.

After Wuxin finished reporting the situation on the Wind Country battlefield, he suddenly thought of something and said to himself:

"Last night, the team was disbanded and I left straight away, forgetting that I had joined the Anbu. I wonder if the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost is upset with me...?"

Wu Xin realized later that he had left the team and returned last night, which seemed to be unfair to the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost.

The Mizukage listened to Wuxin's report very carefully, and only spoke after Wuxin finished speaking:

"It was really thrilling. It seems that the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost is not completely useless."

Mizukage Karuju Yagura paused for a moment, a smile appeared on his face, and he said softly:

"Wuxin, you have made great contributions in this war, what reward do you want?

Is it a job, or a treasure, or a ninjutsu?"
