Naruto: Blood Mist Escape

Kawa no Kuni

In a southern coastal port city, a group of more than 30 merchants, divided into three groups: front, middle and rear, set out northward towards the capital.

On the flag of this team of merchants there is a water drop pattern of the Hidden Mist Village in the Land of Water. They are the merchant team and ninja guards sent by the Hidden Mist Village.

The Wuxin four-member ninja team was at the end of the convoy, guarding the rear of the merchant caravan of more than ten people.

"After sailing on the sea for more than half a month, I still feel more comfortable on land."

Shui Lian, Mai Kizuna, Yamagami Caizhi and others surrounded Wuxin. The one who sighed was Shui Lian, who was tortured by the voyage.

"No, no, no, I think it's more comfortable on the sea, with plenty of water vapor."

Mai Hozuki expressed a different opinion.

"Be quiet during the mission and don't forget our purpose. If Konoha and Sunagakure are really at war, we are in danger at all times in this place."

Wu Xin was in no mood to listen to the idle chatter of the people around him. He had a heavy burden on his shoulders. He called up the information about the Fire-Wind Conflict, the assassination list, and the escort of the caravan that was openly involved in the mission to investigate the Fire-Wind Conflict.

The team led by Yuto Murayama, where Wuxin is, set out from the central island of the Water Kingdom twenty days ago and sailed southwest. After more than half a month of sailing through the Tea Kingdom against the wind and waves, they went north along the coast of the Tea Kingdom and finally arrived at the River Kingdom, which is sandwiched between the Wind and Fire Kingdoms.

Whether it is intelligence reconnaissance or infiltration, merchants usually go first. Wuxin's investigation team, under the pretext of protecting merchants, secretly investigates the border between the Fire and Wind countries to see if the rumored war between the Fire and Wind countries is true.

The caravan was divided into three parts: front, middle and back. The caravan in the middle was guarded by the Jonin Murayama Yuto and the Chunin Kaguya Takema team, the front was guarded by the Chunin Maruoka Tsuneka team, and the back was guarded by the Wuxin team. The team marched towards the capital of River Country in a mighty manner.

The rear guards of the Wuxin team naturally have the easiest job among all the guard duties, thanks to the special care given to them by Yugi Murayama. The vanguard is led by the unfamiliar Chunin Maruoka Tsunekazu. If anything really happens, they will definitely be the first to suffer.

The team moved slowly, the sun set, and the winter night fell quickly.

The manager of the business trip announced that they would set up camp, and the Heartless Ninja Team also set up tents and sleeping bags.

In the tent, four members of Wuxin's team sat on mats inside the tent, holding rice balls in their hands, ready to chew and eat.

"Wait a minute, this is the food I bought and stored when I was at the port. See if it suits your taste."

The only female ninja in the team, Yamagami Ayori, interrupted the actions of several people and quickly took out a few pieces of paper with seal words written on them from the ninja tool bag behind her waist and placed them on the carpet. Then she made a seal with her left hand and pressed the fingers of her right hand on the pieces of paper. With a few bangs, several large plates of meat dishes appeared, including braised pork, fatty fish, and stewed beef.

Wuxin widened his eyes. Ever since he became a ninja, he had been living a life like an ascetic monk. Only when he was on a mission, he would have a good meal in some cities he passed through.

"Huh? I suddenly understand what happiness is."

Mai Hozuki and Suiren were also suddenly stunned, and Mai Hozuki's face showed happiness.

"It's great to have Caizhi as a support! I'm getting started!"

Shui Lian also gave a somewhat exaggerated compliment. She clasped her hands together, said "Let's eat", and began to eat voraciously.

"Aizhi, I'm sorry for costing you money."

Wu Xin looked at the colorful weaving on the mountain, somewhat confused.

The mission reward is just this much, and the captain will give her more, so there is no need for her to spend money to improve the food for the team.

"I am an auxiliary ninja. Logistics and medical care are my jobs. I want to thank you for being able to make a small contribution in these areas."

Yamagami Aori has a warm smile and her eyes are like crescent moons.

Wuxin nodded and joined the mopping-up team. In no time, he finished his meal.

Ninjas' dining also requires efficiency; during a mission, everything must be done quickly.

"At night, scout in the east and west directions with the camp as the center.

Mai, you go west to the Kingdom of Wind. Shuilian, you go east to the Kingdom of Fire.

The range is 20 kilometers. After the reconnaissance, return to rest. "

After the meal, Wuxin, the team leader, quietly issued a task and arranged for the two to go out for reconnaissance at night.

The Kingdom of Rivers is a small country, located between the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Wind, and used as a barrier. At the same time, wars between big countries are mostly fought within the borders of such small countries.

"Yes!"

"it is good!"

When Mai Kizuna and Shui Lian heard Wuxin's words, they nodded in agreement.

"Ayaori, you guard the camp."

"Yes!"

After Wuxin finished explaining the tasks, he suddenly seemed to remember something and took out two palm-length firework tubes from his ninja tool bag and said softly:

"Sui Lian, Mai, take this communication firework with you. If there is any unexpected situation, use it to warn people.

When the fireworks are seen, the ninjas in this operation will rush to the rescue immediately."

Wuxin handed two palm-length firework tubes to the two people.

"understand!"

The two took the communication fireworks tube and replied softly, then began to study the fireworks tube.

“There are wires underneath, and if something happens, just pull the wire and the other end will fire.

Go ahead, go early and come back early. "

Wu Xin gave the instructions very carefully and responsibly, with a bit of the demeanor of a captain. At the end he shook his hands, signaling the two of them that they could set off.

The two nodded, turned and left the tent, set off in two directions, and disappeared into the night.

Wuxin walked out of the tent, looked at the direction the two people left, patrolled the camp, and chatted with the camp's business and travel manager. About half an hour passed.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Wu Xin ended his conversation with the business manager, jumped a few times, came to a deserted place outside the camp, and made five seals with his hands.

"Ninjutsu: Psychic Technique!"

"Wang!"

There was a puff of smoke, and the ninja dog Wangcai came over with a bark.

"Wangcai, take me to the place where the smell was that I asked you to record before."

"Wang!"

Wangcai responded with a bark, then moved his nose as if sniffing something, then barked again and ran to the west.

Wuxin followed the ninja dog Wangcai neither hurriedly nor slowly.

Wuxin had previously given Mai Kizuna a communication firework tube with a special flavor mark.

People’s noses can’t smell it, but the ninja dog Wangcai’s nose can.

Wangcai has a very sensitive nose and is a good tracker. Wuxin once did an experiment where Wangcai was able to accurately track a marker fifty kilometers away using his nose.

Under the moonlight and with the cold wind blowing, a man and a dog were walking through the forest.

The night is dark and the wind is high. The time for assassination has come.

Originally, Wuxin only had some murderous interest in Mai Kizuna, and would not show mercy if he had the chance to trap or kill him. But now the situation is a little different, the Mizukage has issued a secret mission, Mai Kizuna is the target of the mission, and Wuxin can only make a special move.
