Naruto: Changing Fate

Chapter 428: Set off to the Country of Waves!

After Tatsuna failed to intimidate Team [-], Sasuke was shocked by the eagerness to protect him.This destined "C-level" mission was completely handed over to Team [-] led by Kakashi.Then, under the urging of Dazna, who was busy returning to the country as soon as possible to repair the bridge, after checking their luggage, everyone embarked on the journey to the Kingdom of Waves.

"Um, Mr. Dazuna...?"

Of course, in comparison, the two Naruzuo have long used their identities as "Namikaze Menma" and "Uchiha Charasuke" to go out to perform missions and gain experience, so that they have long been accustomed to this trip away from the village. .As for her background, Xiang Lin wandered around with her mother during her childhood.Among the people in Class [-], the one who was genuinely excited and nervous about this journey was Sakura, who was born as an ordinary person and was leaving the village for the first time.And not long after everyone embarked on the journey, it seemed that they couldn't stand the crowd, and they just immersed themselves in the quiet atmosphere without any plans to talk about it. Sakura, who was still a child at heart, couldn't help but ask. , breaking the silence.

"You are from...the Country of Waves, right?"

"Huh? Of course, I am a famous bridge builder in the Kingdom of Waves, Lord Dazuna!"

As soon as Sakura finished speaking, either because she couldn't bear the too-silent atmosphere or because she wanted to take the opportunity to vent her uneasiness and emotions, Dazuna almost didn't even think about it. Brag in response without thinking.Then, with the corner of his eye, he looked at Kakashi and Sasuke, who were silent next to him, to confirm whether they noticed anything strange.While raising his eyebrows slightly, he responded and added, pretending to be confused.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Ah? No, no, no, it's nothing..."

Fortunately, Sakura, who is a child at heart, did not notice anything strange in Tazuna's words, which were obviously concealing something.So while waving his hands repeatedly, he turned his head sideways with a natural look on his face, followed Tazuna's answer, and asked Kakashi.

"Um...Kakashi-sensei, are there ninjas in the Land of Waves?"

"Well, it's a pity that there are no ninjas in the Land of Waves."

Under Sakura's inquiry, Kakashi, as the instructor, did not hesitate to hide anything about this information that was not even a secret and could even be said to be in the category of common sense.But just like in the original work, it was like opening up a chat box, explaining to Sakura in detail why there are no ninjas in the Land of Waves, as well as the distribution of the five major ninja villages in the current ninja world, and the meaning of the title of the Five Shadows. .

"Of course, even though that's what I said, but..."

If compared with Naruto's previous life.So, having a ninja village is equivalent to having a nuclear weapon for a country, possessing a powerful military force that can intimidate even a small child.Only with equal strength can the delicate balance between countries be maintained.

At the same time, the relationship between the ninja village and the country it belongs to is completely equal in terms of stance.There is no situation where one party must obey the orders of the other party.As a result, small countries like the Country of Waves, which are not easily invaded by other countries due to their geographical advantages, no longer have the need to support ninja villages.

Of course, it is precisely because of their mutual positions that they are in a state of equal balance.Even though the Sandaime Hokage, under Naruto's persuasion, used his thunderous strength to completely eradicate the Elder Council, the organization that was supposed to limit the Hokage's power.Although the Daimyo of the Land of Fire was quite troubled and angry, he still seemed to be a normal person after all these years, without even the slightest sign of retaliation.

After all, when the Sandaime Hokage eliminated the elders, he cited various true and reliable accusations and irrefutable evidence.Seriously, what the Sandaime Hokage did was just cleaning up the family.So much so that the Fire Nation, as an "outsider", could not stand up for the elders when this name was not correct, and had to suffer silently.Then facing the fact that Konoha Ninja Village is growing day by day, one can only feel happy about the growth of his military power.However, they are unable to occupy the dominant position of discourse in this military force, and feel a headache. In this complex thought of pain and joy, they continue to maintain a mutually beneficial relationship.

"Well, in short, you don't need to be too nervous, Sakura... After all, if it is just a C-level mission, you will at most encounter some thieves who want to rob you on the road, but incidents such as being attacked by enemy ninjas are There’s no way it’s going to happen.”

After the explanation, Kakashi took advantage of the topic raised by Sakura and turned to look at Tazuna, who looked increasingly unnatural.Then he pretended not to mention it, and with a smile, he continued speaking in a warm voice.

"You think so? Mr. Dazuna..."

"..."

In the face of this problem, no matter whether you answer it or not, it is bound to be more or less exposed.Tatsuna, who was smooth in life, naturally pretended to be old and deaf, and remained silent as if he had not heard Kakashi's inquiry.

"Huh? This is..."

At the same time, since embarking on the journey, Naruto, who had been keeping his head down just in case, immersed in formulating various countermeasures, was instantly attracted by a pool of water that came into view. past.Then, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, he returned all his meditative attention to reality, while continuing to move forward with a normal expression, and murmured eagerly to himself.

"Oh, is it finally about to officially begin..."

Just as described in the original book, under the good weather with clear skies for several days, it is impossible for the ground, which is already extremely absorbent, to have a pool of water appear out of thin air like it is now.So much so that Naruto could easily guess that this was just a poor disguise created by the enemy ninja who coveted Tazuna's life without even letting his senses show.

However, the difference from the original work is that Kakashi pretended to be defeated and was killed to test the on-the-spot reaction ability of everyone in Team [-], and to force Dazuna to tell the truth about the difficulty of the mission... Naruto, who knew Tazuna's difficulties and that the goal of this journey was originally for Zabuza and Haku, did not want any extraneous incidents to occur.So much so that from the moment he sensed something was wrong, he and Sasuke looked at each other calmly and began to prepare in tacit understanding.

"Jiejie, as expected, I didn't notice at all..."

"Moreover, they foolishly let the target who should be protected walk at the end of the team... It seems that they are an inexperienced novice team."

"No matter what, this is an excellent opportunity for us... Come on, partner."

"Ah, no problem..."

At the moment when the figures of Naruto and his group completely passed by the pool of water.Along with a twisting and squirming movement in the water surface, just like a slime deforming, two ferocious Kirigakure Village ninjas emerged from the seemingly inconspicuous water.Then, without any hesitation, he swooped forward, brandishing the special weapon in his hand, and suddenly pounced on Dazna, who was walking at the end of the team without any precautions!

"Now...the mission is accomplished——!"

However, these two Kirigakure Village ninjas, who thought they were perfectly disguised, had a good plan.And using such tactics, they have indeed accomplished the feat of leapfrog kills... But there is no doubt that this time, they actually hit the iron plate!

"Sakura, Mr. Tazuna, get down quickly! Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

Almost at the moment when the Kirigakure ninja had just launched a surprise attack.Naruto's calm and collected voice spread suddenly.Immediately, Sakura and Tatsuna unconsciously bent over because of Naruto's warning words, and then crouched down with their heads in their hands.A fireball filled with terrifying heat suddenly attacked the two Kirigakure ninjas from the front of the team who had no time to stop and dodge!

"What? Have you been seen through?! How can this be... uhhhh-!!!"

After the incomprehensible sounds of surprise were all transformed into heart-rending screams and wails due to the pain of being burned by the fire.The stunned Sakura and Tatsuna turned their eyes from the two Kirigakure ninjas who were struggling desperately in the sea of ​​​​fire, slowly followed the source of the previous sound, and looked towards the moment they set off. From the beginning, Naruto stood at the front of the team.Immediately, he happened to see the dying flame tail in front of Nazuo and the others.And from this, he understood that it was these two people who joined forces to help him resolve the crisis in time at the critical moment just now!

"Oh Duo, it seems like you used a little too much force? Well, forget it, as long as I don't die on the spot, I should still be able to save him... Water Release·Water Prison Technique!"

Although before taking action, I had already made some mental preparations.But after actually taking action, he discovered that his opponent's true strength was much weaker than what he had feared in advance. Naruto couldn't help but secretly worry about whether the power of this attack was deliberately weakened. By combining ninjutsu, these two enemies will be completely eliminated and the opportunity to interrogate information will be lost.Then he quickly formed seals again and created a huge water ball out of thin air.In order to firmly restrain and restrict the freedom of the two Kirigakure ninjas, completely cutting off their chance of escape, he also extinguished the burning flames for them.While distracted, he turned his head sideways, looked at the stunned Sakura and Tatsuna, and asked in a warm voice.

"I'm sorry, I scared you just now...are you hurt?"

"Huh? Ah...I'm...injured or something...nothing..."

It is different from the moment during the "exercise", when looking from a distance, one cannot see the reality and the reality, and it lacks some convincing.The stunning scene she witnessed at close range at this moment was enough to completely dispel the last remaining doubts in Sakura's heart about Naruto's true strength.Then he subconsciously murmured a response, secretly pondering and complaining in confusion deep in his heart.

"Being able to perform ninjutsu easily... Sure enough, it's not just Sasuke-kun. Naruto's strength is equally outstanding... But... Since he has such strong strength, why has he deliberately disguised himself in these years? What about becoming a 'trailer' image? Could it be that Naruto... likes to be scolded?"

"Huh...it looks like it's safe."

At the same time, Tazuna, who was also frightened by the sudden change just now, could not help but secretly let out a long breath under Naruto's inquiry.Immediately, he whispered smugly in his heart that he could hire such a powerful guard by only paying for the C-level mission.

"I really didn't expect that that brat was so strong... It seems that I really found a treasure with my commission this time."

It's a pity that what Dazna didn't expect was...

"Ah, by the way...Tatsuna-san, if I remember correctly, just like what Kakashi-sensei just said...a mission that involves a ninja duel must be at least B-level, right?" But before you set off, you swore to tell us that this was just a once-in-a-lifetime mission, and we only needed to be on guard against attacks and harassment by armed groups of bandits and bandits, and it was just a C-level mission to escort you back to your country... In other words, you were on While seeking asylum from us Konoha ninjas, you also lied about the difficulty level of the mission, didn't you?"

Just as Dazna felt more and more happy and satisfied with his vision and choice.Naruto, however, saw the opportunity for Tazuna to relax quietly, blinking his eyes, and continued speaking in a warm voice... However, the words he uttered afterwards were always more words. Bytes are enough to make Dazna's heart become colder and more nervous.So much so that the childish voice that made Dazna feel reassured and relieved just a second ago was no different from the image of the devil from hell whispering in his ears at this moment!

"Now, aren't you going to give some explanation for this? Dear Mr. Da-z-na~"

"This...this...I...that..."

It was from this moment that Dazna, who was about to cry without tears, realized belatedly...

From beginning to end, he looked like a taciturn person.So much so that at first glance, Naruto seems to be a harmless and good boy, but his true character is quite sinister.And in a sense, it can be regarded as extremely vindictive.

After all, in the final analysis... In the world of Naruto's previous life, there was an old saying that a gentleman's revenge is never too late in ten years.

In other words, although Naruto, as a member of the traveling party, knew very well why Dazuna spoke rudely and appeared to be so rude and annoying.It was entirely because of his lack of money that he was unable to pay the high remuneration required for the B-level mission.And with sympathy and understanding, he tolerated Dazuna's actions...

However, understanding is understanding, and while trying to maintain the main plot direction and avoid more butterfly effects, Naruto has already secretly decided to escort Tazuna back to the country of waves safely and help He successfully built the cross-sea bridge that could change the fate of the entire country of Waves...

But understanding is understanding, but along the way, Naruto and I waited silently and patiently until the right moment came, and then deliberately used the topic to make a show of asking questions, teasing Tazuna in order to get some revenge. In terms of purpose, they are two completely incompatible things...

Because of this, if we just rely on the current situation, after having such a luxurious guard lineup, Dazna's life will definitely be safe...

But psychologically, will Dazna's quick words leave any shadow or sequelae after the mission is over...
