The border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rivers.

Near the territory of the Land of Rain.

Danzo led the Konoha Jonin to lie in ambush here.

Although the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rivers is very long, the Sand Village ninjas can only go this way if they want to return to the Land of Wind as quickly as possible.

As for whether it is possible for the Sand Village ninjas to return to the Land of Wind through the Land of Rain.

After Danzo carefully read the information he had obtained, he felt it was impossible.

Because this young Kazekage's bloodline limit, whether it is Sand Control Jutsu or Magnet Release: Gold Dust Jutsu, cannot be used in a place like the Land of Rain.

However, just in case, Danzo still sent out the Jonin with sensory and reconnaissance abilities, distributing them on the border between the Land of Rain and the Land of Fire.

And so, after waiting for almost four hours.

There was finally a reply from the front.

"The Sand Village ninjas have appeared..."

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Above the vast forest.

An eagle is flying in the sky.

From the humane and intelligent eyes of this eagle, it can be seen that this is not an ordinary animal.

Yes, this is a Ninja Hawk!

In this ninja world, Ninja Hawks, Ninja Dogs, and Ninja Cats are the most common summoned beasts. Although they do not have strong attack power, they are very useful in transmitting messages and reconnaissance.

Taking Ninja Hawks as an example, the flying ability and super vision and dynamic capture ability of eagles allow them to discover the traces of enemies as far as ten kilometers away.

This is already far beyond the sensory abilities of most ninjas.

In the shadows of the forest.

Danzo, who was hiding here, asked Ryuma Aburame.

"Has it been confirmed?"

Ryuma nodded and said.

"After the Ninja Hawk discovered them, I have already confirmed it through the bugs. It is indeed the Fourth Kazekage of the Sand Village, and there is also a red-haired girl who should be the Uzumaki clan survivor from Kusagakure, named Hanataba."

"How far are they from us now?"

"Less than eight kilometers!"

"Then let them take action!"

"Yes!"

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Border of the Land of Fire.

In the sky, Rasa, standing on a cloud of gold dust, finally arrived at the border of the Land of Fire in the afternoon after more than four hours of travel, and was about to enter the Land of Rivers.

As a border area between the three countries, the terrain here is very special.

It can be seen that after passing through the Land of Fire, the entire ground of the Land of Rivers seems to have been peeled off, and the horizon has dropped nearly a hundred meters like a cliff.

This makes the entire Land of Rivers seem to be in a canyon.

No wonder there are so many rivers in the Land of Rivers.

As the saying goes, water flows to low places. The Land of Rivers, located in a land like a depression, gathers most of the rivers from the surrounding major countries.

At this time, even if Rasa's sensory ability is average, looking at the low-lying Land of Rivers in front of him, he can feel the hidden danger, just like a natural trap, waiting for the prey to enter.

Although Rasa's action this time is based on the idea of a mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, it is impossible for him to rush into the trap set by the opponent so impulsively.

Thinking of this, he beckoned and at the same time controlled the gold dust cloud to descend and fall into the forest, hiding his figure.

This immediately caused the Konoha Ninja Hawk in the sky to lose track of Rasa.

Soon, the twelve Jonin of the Covert Mobile Unit came to his side, extremely respectful.

Rasa did not waste time asking these twelve Sand Village Jonin if they could detect the danger in the forest ahead, but directly asked Hanataba beside him.

"Hanataba, I know you have excellent sensory abilities. Can you sense how many Konoha ninjas are in front of you, and where are their approximate locations?"

As soon as these words came out, the twelve Sand Village Jonin looked at Hanataba with some surprise. This girl, whom their Kazekage personally brought back from Kusagakure, from the Uzumaki clan, actually has such abilities?

Then, the next scene made these Sand Village Jonin exclaim in amazement.

It could be seen that Hanataba only hesitated slightly, then formed the Rat hand seal with both hands, closed her eyes, and began to sense everything in front of her.

"One... two..."

Before long, Hanataba sensed the location of all the Konoha ninjas.

"A total of thirty-one people, their chakra is very large, divided into four echelons, three kilometers, four kilometers, five kilometers, and seven kilometers away from us, respectively. The first and second echelons have nine people, the third echelon has seven people, and the fourth echelon has five people. One person in the fourth echelon has the largest chakra, and he has a very gloomy feeling."

Speaking of this, Hanataba seemed to be frightened and shuddered.

"Not bad!"

Rasa's face was full of appreciation. Although the other twelve Sand Village Jonin were wearing masks, they could also feel their incredible emotions. No wonder the Kazekage values this woman so much. Not to mention her Uzumaki clan bloodline, just this sensory ability is unmatched by anyone in the village.

After praising her, Rasa said to his subordinates.

"It seems that the Konoha ninjas are preparing to use an echelon approach to hold you back one by one, so as to finally attack me, the Kazekage!"

"Then, Kazekage-sama, what should we do now?"

"Hmph, since the Konoha ninjas have planned so well, wouldn't it be a shame if we didn't put on a show for them, after they've been waiting here for so long? Let you play with the Konoha ninjas. It would be even better if you could take care of them."

"......"

The twelve members of the Covert Mobile Unit were a little stunned.

It wasn't that they were unwilling to obey the Kazekage's orders, but the troop strength of both sides seemed a little too unequal.

They only have twelve people, but the other side has thirty people.

Sensing the hesitation of the crowd, Rasa calmly put his hands together, and the senjutsu energy in his body surged.

"Sage Art: Shukaku's Appearance - Tanuki Samurai!"

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

In the forest of the Land of Rivers.

The Sand Village ninjas suddenly stopped and hid in the forest, shocking all the Konoha ninjas who were lying in ambush.

Beside Danzo, Ryuma Aburame frowned and said.

"Have we been discovered? Danzo-sama!"

Danzo's eyes were gloomy.

"So what if we've been discovered!"

The leak of his own secrets had long made Danzo regard this Sand Village Kazekage as a thorn in his side.

In any case, he must find out from this Kazekage who in the village leaked this secret.

Not to mention, there is also a surprise now.

The Uzumaki clan!

If he can get this Uzumaki clan survivor, then perhaps he can try to control the Nine-Tails as well.

After all, if there is no Uzumaki Kushina, then this Uzumaki clan will become the only choice for the village.

Thinking of this, Danzo looked at the towering cliff in the distance, his eyes narrowed, and then he turned around and said to the four Konoha ninjas behind him who were carrying huge scrolls.

"Start the operation!"

"Yes~~~"
