I just returned to Konoha and found that all my clan members were gone.

"I'm so sleepy. Why do we have to do this kind of work? Will someone come to invade our Kumogakure?"

The young Chunin and his companions complained. No one was happy to be caught standing guard so early in the morning.

"That being said, we must also do our job well."

His companion at the side comforted him. This ninja looked much more stable and spoke while thinking about the recent intelligence in the ninja world.

"I heard that the Rain Kingdom and the Grass Kingdom are fighting. I don't know if it will affect us."

"Tsk, it's just a war between two small countries. How can it affect our Thunder Country?"

The somewhat sleepy Chunin perked up after talking about these things.

"That being said, I heard that the Rain Country suffered a loss in the past at the hands of the Earth Country."

"I feel relieved. The Rain Country is so far away from us, how could it affect us here?"

While the two were talking, a figure gradually approached the Hidden Cloud Village. The two people who were originally chatting casually looked at each other with some curiosity, and for a moment they felt that they were not enemies yet.

After seeing the other person's unfamiliar face clearly, the somewhat steady ninja asked first.

"Who is it?"

Ye Lan patted the Akatsuki robe draped over his body, looked up at the two Kumogakure ninjas, his Sharingan slowly spinning, then he smiled gently and said.

"I'm Uchiha Ye Lan, don't you recognize me?"

The two ninjas who had been controlled by the illusion became a little dazed, and it took them a long time to react after hearing Ye Lan's words.

Said the Chunin who was a little sleepy at first.

"Oh, it's Uchiha Ye Lan, what can I do for you?"

"Excuse me, where are the two Yumu people? Do you know?"

Ye Lan chatted with the other party as if he was chatting with an old friend.

"There's Mu Ren-sama? I think she's at Training Ground No. 43. She usually practices there."

"What about Kirabi?"

"Lord Kirabi has been staying in Yunlei Gorge to practice, and Lord Raikage will not let him leave easily."

Faced with Ye Lan's straightforward question, the ninja gave the answer directly without any reservation. This was information that any Chunin in Kumogakure knew, but he did not feel strange at all at this moment.

"Where are the No. 43 training ground and Yunlei Gorge?"

Faced with this crucial information, the somewhat steady ninja began to show signs of struggle, and his entire body began to shake unnaturally.

But all these were useless. Ye Lan simply increased his control over the illusion, and the ninja returned to his dazed look.

Finally, he pointed in two directions and told Ye Lan how far away they were.

After learning that both places were far away from the Hidden Cloud Village, Ye Lan made a decision.

"Thank you for your hard work, then you can continue to carry out your mission."

Ye Lan patted the ninja who showed him the way, and then left the place directly.

After a long time, the two recovered from their dazed state.

The somewhat steady ninja asked his companions first.

"What just happened?"

"Huh? What happened? I think I fell asleep."

The ninja, who was a little sleepy at first, looked at his companions embarrassedly.

...

Ye Lan came to the so-called Training Ground No. 43 according to the instructions. Through the observation ability of the Sharingan, he could clearly see two figures on the training ground.

Anyone else?

It can be seen that the attitude of Kumogakure towards the Jinchūriki is actually quite friendly, but perhaps this friendliness makes Yukito feel a little uncomfortable. She has always acted alone, and Ye Lan was a little surprised to see other people here.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Mu Ren and a female ninja with short golden hair were sparring with each other. Unlike most of the dark-skinned people in Kumogakure, these two were fair-skinned beauties.

At this moment, the two of them abandoned the duel of ninjutsu and were fighting purely in physical skills. To be honest, the physical skills of the Hidden Cloud Village were indeed much stronger than those of ordinary ninjas of the same level from other villages. Even though it was a fight between two women, Ye Lan watched it with relish for a while.

"Who is spying?"

Just as Ye Lan was watching intently, the wooden man suddenly turned around and threw a thousand-blade rocket directly at Ye Lan.

Ye Lan did not move at all. He raised his hands in front of his eyes and stretched out two fingers to directly pinch the oncoming Qianben. He did not hide his breath at all just now, so it was normal for him to be discovered.

"Yumujin, who is that?"

It was only at this time that Samui reacted and looked in the direction of Yuboku Senbon's attack. She saw a figure wearing a black robe that she had never seen before, moving in the wind, and a handsome face was looking at them with a smile.

When she saw Ye Lan's face clearly, You Mu Ren's heart suddenly went on alarm bells, and she felt like she was being targeted by her natural enemy.

"Master!"

You Muren, who had never seen Ye Lan, only uttered these two words in the end. As she was older, she took the initiative to stand in front of Samyi and spoke in a low voice.

"Go back to the village and ask for support. It would be best if you ask the Raikage to come in person!"

Seeing You Muren's nervous look, Samyi's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that this senior would make such a judgment. The other party seemed to be younger than himself, so why would he give such a high evaluation.

"Don't hesitate, just go! I can't guarantee I can stop him!"

Seeing that Samui was still a little hesitant, the wooden man shouted loudly.

In the end, Samyi looked at Ye Lan twice, nodded with difficulty, and planned to leave.

"I'm sorry, if you leave now, it will make me feel a little troubled. After all, after catching the two-tail, I still have to catch the eight-tail."

No matter what was said, Ye Lan kept smiling, like a gentle boy next door, but this feeling was incompatible with the tense atmosphere at the moment.

For the first time, Samui felt that the other person was not simple at all.

"If you want to catch her, you have to get past me first! Fire Rat Jade!"

In order to cover Samui's escape, Yumujin used her signature ninjutsu directly. Several blue fireballs were fired directly from her mouth. Unlike ordinary fire escape, these blue fireballs approached Ye Lan at an extremely fast speed.

Fire escape?

Ye Lan raised his eyebrows and quickly made a noon seal with his hand.

Unlike the fireball the size of the Fire Rat Jade Basketball, a large ball of flame gushed out directly from Ye Lan's mouth. The high-temperature flame turned directly white, and the range of the raging fire directly covered the entire training ground.

Under the overwhelming flames, those fire rat jades could not make any waves and were suppressed by Ye Lan's fire escape in an instant.

Even using the substitution technique, Samui couldn't avoid the attack, so he could only curl up his body and hide behind some rocks and trees.

But these things were completely unable to withstand the intense heat, which directly blew up the rocks, and the trees also made crackling explosions.

With just one move, all of Samui's clothes were burned to tatters, and he fell to the ground, his life or death unknown.

A blue tail has been revealed by the wooden man at this moment, and she can only resist this fire escape by relying on the tailed beast coat. The gap between the two sides is obvious at a glance with just a tentative attack.

"Yukito, run and don't worry about the people in your village! The other party is an Uchiha!"

At this moment, the two-tailed beast in Yukito's body made a sharp cat-like cry, loudly warning Yukito that it had a deep understanding of how terrifying the Uchiha was.

You Muren's heart trembled and he looked up at Ye Lan.

The handsome boy opposite still had a smiling face, but the difference was that his two eyes had turned into the Uchiha clan's iconic three-magatama Sharingan.
