Reborn Naruto, I rolled my eyes to the sky

As for Danzo, although he is a villain and conspirator in the original work, as Sarutobi Hiruzen's close partner and the head of the Root of Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally trusts him very much.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen also knew his old friend's character very well. He was calm to the point of being cruel, and would do anything for the benefit of Konoha. As for the conflict between the Land of Iron and the Land of Lightning, Sarutobi Hiruzen also suspected that Danzo was responsible for it.

In my eyes, whether it is Danzo, or the later evil-turned Orochimaru and Obito, they are all just ordinary members of the ninja world. It is only because of the perspective of the original work that they appear to be villains.

But in fact, this is the reality of the entire ninja world. The so-called Will of Fire attracts generations of ninjas because it is a difficult goal to achieve. The real ninja world is one of the survival of the fittest, bloody and cruel.

The journey to the Land of Iron is much longer than that to the Land of Grass and the Land of Rivers that I have visited before. At a normal speed, it may take two days to get from Konoha to the border of the Land of Iron.

And according to the intelligence, Danzo is currently leading Minato and the Root ninjas at the border between the Land of Iron and the Land of Lightning, which means they need to continue crossing the Land of Iron to meet up with them, which will take most of the day.

However, in my impression, the Land of Lightning seemed to have a conflict with the Land of Earth during the Second Ninja World War, and had no direct contact with the Land of Iron, which claimed to be permanently neutral. Now the two countries are actually at war.

Of course, with my existence, the plot I saw in my previous life has changed beyond recognition. At least the battlefields of Konoha in the Land of Rain and the Land of Rivers have deviated from the original track due to my participation.

Some thoughts flashed through my mind, but I naturally could not refuse the task assigned by Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Yes, Hokage-sama, I will rush to the Land of Iron as soon as possible to assist Danzo-sama in stabilizing the border situation."

"Jiraiya has accepted several good students. After the trials of this war, in a few years, the future of Konoha will depend on you young people." Sarutobi Hiruzen was obviously very concerned about using Shinichi and me to break the gap between the Hyuga and Uchiha clans and the village.

Of course, I am happy to see this happen. After all, the ninja village system is always an improvement compared to the family system of the Warring States Period. The Konoha Library alone has brought me a lot of benefits. If it were in the Warring States Period, it would not be easy for me to access and read so many books and secret techniques.

"Thanks to the training of Lord Hokage and Sensei Jiraiya, we will not let the village down." Although I am not very interested in the Will of Fire, Sarutobi Hiruzen has indeed made my growth path a lot easier.

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen had no further instructions, I left the Hokage Building. This mission was not very urgent, so there was no need to rush forward. However, I was somewhat interested in the Cloud Ninja's ninjutsu and the samurai of the Iron Kingdom, so I did not waste any more time and headed straight for the Iron Kingdom after leaving the Hokage Building.

The Iron Kingdom is located in the northeast of the Fire Kingdom, across the sea from the Lightning Kingdom. Of course, there is a connecting road, but it requires passing through a desolate Gobi Desert, and there is not even a country or ninja village built in it.

If I rush from Konoha to the Iron Kingdom, it will take me most of the day. The Iron Kingdom is not very large, so it doesn't take long to cross it. So when I arrived at the Iron Kingdom camp across the sea from the Lightning Kingdom, it took me almost exactly one day.

The Iron Country camp that is currently in conflict with the Cloud Ninja is naturally heavily guarded, and there is no need for me to sneak in, so when I arrived at the outskirts of the Iron Country samurai camp, I was stopped.

Facing the vigilant patrol warriors of the Iron Kingdom, I revealed my identity: "I am Hyuga Kumoyu, a ninja from Konoha. I am here to assist Danzo-sama on the orders of the Hokage-sama. Please help inform him."

The patrolling warriors from the Iron Kingdom were in groups of three. When they saw my Konoha forehead protector and my age of no more than twelve years old, they did not let me pass directly, but they obviously relaxed their vigilance. They left two of them to watch me while one returned to the camp to report.

"At such a young age, your village is willing to let you go out on a mission alone?" one of the warriors asked with interest while waiting.

"I was just promoted to Jonin some time ago, so it was safer for Hokage to send me to assist Danzo," I explained.

"Jonin?" Although there are no ninjas in the Land of Iron, samurai also need to practice chakra and physical skills, so they naturally understand what kind of strength a jonin means. He didn't seem to believe it, but he couldn't fight with me to verify it now, so he looked at each other for a while and stopped talking.

Without waiting too long, the warrior who had returned to the camp to report came out, followed by the blonde Minato: "Long time no see, Yunyu."

"Minato." I also greeted him with a smile. It seems that Minato has not slacked off during the time he has been with Danzo. His sharp aura can be clearly felt. It seems that Minato's participation is indispensable in the fight with the Cloud Ninja.
