Picked up a copy of Konoha Ninja

"Obito, I want to send my father's ashes back to Konoha and come back after attending the memorial service." Kakashi said to Obito in a hoarse voice with his eyes swollen and red after seeing off many ninjas who came to express their condolences. .

"Okay, I'll accompany you. In a short period of time, Lord Tofu and Lord Orochimaru are on the front line. Even if Sunagakure and Iwagakure join forces, they can resist. Our team's current task is to assist in patrolling the Land of Fire. There are no urgent support missions in the southern coastal forest for the time being, so it’s still time to return to Konoha.”

"Going to inspect the coast of the Country of Fire?" Kakashi raised his head, "Will the Country of Water also participate in this war?"

Obito's face turned gloomy, "As long as a war breaks out between the great ninja villages, the entire ninja world will be unbalanced. Those Kages who are based on the core interests of the village will never sit back and wait for this good opportunity to take advantage. And we in the Fire Nation It is located in the center of the continent and has the best geographical environment. This war comes too early for us in Konoha."

"Obito, why do you suddenly become a bit old-fashioned when you speak?" Kakashi glanced at him strangely, then lowered his head, "But you are right. I am regretting that my strength is too weak now. If I If he had the strength of Minato-sensei, my father would not..."

"Kakashi." Obito sat down on the futon next to Kakashi, "We haven't experienced many battles before, so our strength is still improving slowly, but next, there is a ninja war waiting for us. Woolen cloth."

He stared seriously into Kakashi's eyes, "We Konoha will definitely win this ninja war. And after this ninja war, I will try my best to surpass you."

As he said that, he walked out the door regardless of Kakashi's expression, "Well, I will be a chuunin after I return to the village. Kakashi, you won't lose to me."

Kakashi clenched his fists, looking at Obito's arrogant look, with black lines on his face.

Obito walked to the nearby mourning hall, glanced inside, and heard bursts of shouting coming from outside the camp not far away.

He raised his feet a little and easily jumped over the several-meter-high wall and fell into the forest. At a glance, he saw Kai practicing boxing against a big tree.

At this moment, the bark of the tree in front of him was broken by him, revealing the young heart of the tree inside. Kai's hands had turned purple, with a hint of scarlet on them.

"Kai, there's no need to be so decadent when you complain that you don't have the strength to save your mentor." Obito folded his arms in front of his chest and stood a dozen steps away without getting closer.

"Obito, this sacrifice is the leading jounin of our ninth class and our first teacher. You bastard, how can you say that." When Kai turned around, tears were already streaming down his face.

"Kai, please go back to Konoha when you have time. I think you can take the initiative to escort Teacher Aotori."

"Of course the three of us in our team are doing this kind of thing together. Eh..." Kai suddenly fell silent for a moment, "Is there a new mission?"

"Well, your ninth class's temporary jounin is Minato-sensei. You will go with us to patrol the southern coast of the Land of Fire to be on guard against Kirigakure."

"Can't the three of us in the team send Teacher Aotori back together?" Kai said with a frustrated face.

"I suggested to Minato-sensei that you should just go back with Kai."

"Is there any Kakashi?" Kai sighed.

"And I."

"You?" Metkai glanced at Obito in shock, "Why are you going back?"

Obito smiled mysteriously. He couldn't tell Kai directly that he went back because of his father.

"Of course there is something going on. By the way, Kai, I can already open the door to sleep."

Kai's eyes widened and he looked at Obito in disbelief, "Hey, I think Kakashi can only open the door."

Obito carried him and waved his hand, "Let's leave Kai first. We will set off tomorrow morning. We have to be cremated tonight. You go and say goodbye to Mr. Aotori first."

Kai's eyes darkened, he sighed, and followed Obito to the mourning hall.

"Bang bang", at night, in an open area outside the camp, two bodies were wrapped in the fire that shot up into the sky. In the blink of an eye, the only sound left on the scene was the sound of raging fire.

At the same time, on a hilltop a few miles away, two rain ninjas were squatting together.

"What are the ninjas of Konoha doing? Making such a big fuss."

"Look at the figures below. Thousands of ninjas have gathered together. It should be a cremation ceremony."

"Did Konoha White Fang and an elite jounin die in battle?"

"Not only that, during the previous border conflict to prevent Sunagakure reinforcements, Konoha killed at least twenty people, but in comparison, Sunagakure's losses were at least twice theirs."

"Damn it, why does this battle have to be fought in our Kingdom of Rain again? Is it just because they are a great country ninja village that we can only endure the pain and take the beating?"

"We in the Kingdom of Rain have already suffered too much from the pain of the Second Ninja War. Why can't our compatriots stay away from the war?"

The jounin leading the team patted him on the shoulder, "So this time, Master Hanzo gave an order in advance to keep us away from the war and not to participate in this ninja war."

"Is it already a ninja world war? But the ninja villages of other major countries have not taken action yet?" The chuunin was stunned again.

"The Third Tsuchikage Onoki will not let go of this opportunity. If he can weaken Konoha's strength, he will definitely be the first to do it. After all, he personally witnessed the ninja gods Senju Hashirama and Uchiha back then. Madara Kamui’s man.”

Yugakure Chuunin was thoughtful, then saw his captain pat his shoulder, "Let's go, retreat to the village, we have to return to defense recently, all the ninjas in the village retreat in advance to avoid conflicts with other countries Conflict breaks out in Ninja Village.”

"I know." The Chuunin's eyes were a little unwilling, but after the Second Ninja War, Amegakure Village had indeed lost the capital to grow into a great Ninja Village.

They are not Konoha. There are not that many Kage-level ninjas to withstand the pressure from all directions, and their position is very awkward. They are just sandwiched between the Kingdom of Fire, the Kingdom of Wind, and the Kingdom of Earth. If they gain momentum, they will will be jointly suppressed by the three parties.

In the middle of the night, Obito comforted a group of companions and walked to the medical ninja unit alone, but saw a white ninja snake outside the camp.

"Lord Orochimaru." He chased out, and as soon as he arrived a hundred meters away from the camp, he saw Orochimaru sitting on a big rock.

"Lord Orochimaru, haven't you already gone to the Country of Grass and are responsible for leading the ninjas assembled there to defend against the Iwa ninja? Why are you here?"

Orochimaru glanced deeply at the bright moon hanging above his head, "I came here this time to discuss strategy with Lord Tofu. I was appointed by Sarutobi-sensei as the frontline commander of Iwagakure. Currently, we in the Country of Grass have gathered in Konoha. There are nearly a thousand ninjas, Obito, do you want to come over?"

Obito was slightly startled, "Don't I still have to perform missions with the team members?"

"In the Country of Grass, although there will be no conflict with Iwagakure Village in the short term, if the war situation worsens, this place will become the main battlefield. If you want to go to the battlefield to experience, this is definitely a good place to go."

Obito was silent for a moment, "Forget it, Lord Orochimaru, I'm going to go back to the village first."

"It's not a bad idea to go back to the village. I heard that your Minato squad was assigned to go to the southern part of the Land of Fire to watch out for Kirigakure. Although Kirigakure doesn't have many Kage-level ninjas, there are quite a few elite Jonin-level ninjas, especially the Kirigakure Ninja Seven. Everyone in the crowd, those seven people, each has the strength of an elite jounin. With the help of a special ninja sword, he can burst out with the strength to compete with the shadow-level ninja in a short period of time. If you encounter them, escape as soon as possible. After saying that, Orochimaru glanced sideways at Obito, "Can you channel all snakes now?"

Obito's face suddenly filled with frustration, "I can't do it yet. I can still only channel Xiaoqing. Orochimaru-sama, when will Xiaoqing grow up? With its size, when facing many ninjas on the battlefield, It’s not much help at all.”

"Obito, despite the fact that Jiraiya, Tsunade, I, and I became famous because of the Psychic Ninja Beasts, at the beginning, the Psychic Ninja Beasts were just regarded as our partners. In the ninja world, apart from the tailed beasts, the most powerful ones There are not many psychic ninja beasts at all, so you should understand that if ninjas want to be strong, they must not rely too much on psychic ninja beasts."

"I understand, Orochimaru-sama."

"I have a secret technique here that can help you improve your strength in a short period of time, perform some more powerful ninjutsu, and even channel thousands of snakes. Do you want to practice it?"

Obito's eyes suddenly lit up, "Can I really practice?"

"Of course, and this secret technique is just equivalent to lending my power to you, Obito, if you want to practice it, I can give it to you now."

Obito's heart sank. He had already guessed what Orochimaru wanted to plant in his body. Could it be that his opening of the three magatama sharingan eyes was exposed? But who among the ninjas traveling with him would tell Orochimaru about this?

Obito thought of the ninja snake he saw just now. Orochimaru has always been elusive and likes to use the ninja snake for reconnaissance. When he came out, he did not bring chemical protective clothing and did not have time to deworm. Apparently Orochimaru had already arranged the ninja snake near the camp. Monitor yourself.

"Thank you so much, Orochimaru-sama, is that right? Do you just need me to sit down?" Obito just sat in front of Orochimaru, turning back without warning, showing an innocent and bright smile.

"Of course." Orochimaru felt a little calmer. He had originally prepared several methods of temptation and coercion, but he didn't expect that Obito would obey his orders so obediently and was willing to let him plant the curse seal.

"Then let's start...ah...it hurts, Orochimaru-sama..." Obito screamed, and his whole body fell directly to one side.

"The willpower is pretty good." Orochimaru looked at Obito who was weak and collapsed on the ground, reached out to pick him up, twisted his body, and his lower body directly transformed into a snake body, swimming on the grass, and sent him back to the camp. .
