[Naruto] Angelica

The border city in the northern border could not be attacked for a long time, and the Kingdom of Thunder temporarily withdrew its troops, allowing the troops in the border town to take a breather for a while. The commander-in-chief deployed sentries at each entrance, and withdrew a large number of wounded patients to return to the camp to rest.

In the medical camp, Nohara Lin buried her head in writing, and then raised her eyes to scan the corpse covered by a white cloth in front of her.The corpse squad had been waiting by the side for a long time, Lin stood up and nodded, "I've been waiting. You can take it away now."

The person in the corpse squad gave a "hmm" and waved his hands to let his subordinates go forward to remove it.Lin looked down at the list of the dead that she had recorded. Soon, they would turn into ashes, wind, and rain, and there would be no more pain.

Nohara Lin opened the curtain and walked out of the mortuary. Seeing the black-haired boy discussing matters with his subordinates, he looked serious and was about to go out.

"Obito!" Lin subconsciously called out to him.

The black-haired boy stopped immediately when he heard the sound, and gestured for his subordinates to wait outside for a while.

Lin saw him passing through the rushing crowd in the medical camp, striding towards her, and walking in front of her, her tense face just now was full of smiles, and she lowered her head and asked softly, "What's wrong, Lin?"

"Are you leaving?" Lin asked, her uneasiness hidden under the calm tone she tried her best to conceal.

"Ah." Obito rubbed the tip of his nose with a smile, "Teacher is on a mission. This trip is a bit far away, and I won't be returning to the camp in a short time."

"Take care of yourself, don't sit and sleep on the chair all the time, this is the north, and the climate is much colder than Konoha."

"..."

Lin was speechless for a moment, the boy in memory who had just graduated and wore goggles overlapped with the boy in front of him.His face was dusty, his clothes were covered with mud or something, and his white armor was full of old scratches.

She stared at him, and suddenly realized that Obito seems to have grown a lot in these years, no longer clamoring to compete with Kakashi, no longer trying to be aggressive, still gentle and kind, and still giving stray cats a treat. Going to the food, I will still be late because I help the grandmother to pick up the food.

Lin lowered her eyes and smiled, raised her hand and patted Obito's shoulder: "You are the one who needs to be said the most, right? Take care of yourself, and don't let me be scarred every time I see you."

Obito seemed to want to say something else, and the people outside the camp reminded him of the time.

"Let's go. See you next time!" He said quickly, and waved his palm as a farewell.

Lynn watched as he trotted away into the busy traffic outside the camp.

"See you next time." She said softly.

The medical team was notified that they had sent two teams to support them, but some of them were still injured, and the medical team needed to treat them first to ensure the smooth completion of the task.

After the notification was issued, the medical team got busy quickly, reassessed the injuries of the wounded, and informed the camp to take away patients who had recovered well and who did not need follow-up observation.Finally, in the afternoon of the second day, the first team arrived first.

Nohara Lin found several familiar faces, one of which was Yayoi Hinata.

After a long march, her wound inevitably burst again, and the oozing blood stained most of her skirt red.The nurse led her to lie down on a hospital bed, and drew the curtain to examine the wound. The little girl who was with her stood outside the curtain and walked back and forth, unable to stop.

"Come here." Lin called her.

The little girl pointed at herself confusedly when she heard the voice, and when she saw Lin nodding, she looked back worriedly, and then trotted over.Lin continued with the treatment work at hand. She had done such stitches no less than a thousand times, and the conversation did not distract her.

"What is your name?"

"Maoyue Xiyan."

"It sounds good." Lin sincerely praised, "You just graduated from the Ninja?"

"Yes." Xi Yan nodded, still forgetting frequently while speaking, her face full of worry.

"Don't worry, Senior Yayoi is very strong." Lin gestured for her to pass the gauze aside to herself, "She is one of the strongest people I have ever met."

"But that kind of penetrating injury..." Xi Yan gestured at the position of the chest cavity, "The doctors over there said that they should rest for more than half a month."

Xiyan lowered her head and felt a little dejected: "If it wasn't for the fact that I'm too weak and worried, Senior Yayoi didn't have to come. She wasn't on the list in the first place... Besides, she was injured so badly to save our team."

After finishing the dressing, Lin washed her hands, turned around and bent down to look at her at the same level: "If you are worried because of this, then you will underestimate Senior Yayoi."

"Doctor Nohara is right."

Yayoi's voice sounded from behind.

Xiyan turned her head and saw the nurse opened the curtain, and Yayoi changed into a clean black cross-neck top, with the Hyuga Clan emblem embroidered with white needlework on the shoulder particularly eye-catching.She straightened her collar, threw the bloody clothes into the waste bin, and walked towards them.

"But having said that," Lin rolled her eyes, "Senior Yayoi really doesn't take my doctor's advice to heart."

"The situation forced it." Yayoi said, "Didn't Dr. Nohara rely on medicine to barely survive?"

Her gaze moved to Nohara Lin's pocket, where there were several military food pills, the color and smell of which were slightly different from ordinary ones.Yayoi recognized the extra herbal medicine, which was banned on the surface, but it was actually a nerve-stimulating drug that was often taken by the scouting team.

"What did senior say just now? Someone is calling for a doctor over there. I'll deal with it. I'll take my leave first."

Lynn slipped fast.Yayoi patted Xiyan's head, the little girl was confused and obviously didn't understand what medicine they were talking about.

"Okay, let's go too, Xi Yan."

Ninja squads usually consist of a captain and three subordinates, but special forces are not. Such as infiltration, assassination, and surveillance, they are all in groups of two, in order to reduce the chance of being detected by the enemy.

Yayoi felt a headache when she saw the task book, and asking two ninjas to perform this kind of task in a team is no different from sending them to death.Besides, these two were rescued by her desperately.When the superior asked her to replace the dead Chunin to join the mission, she proposed to disassemble the Chunin and bring one for herself, and the original Chunin teammate would bring another.

Open the curtain and walk out of the medical camp. Next to the medical camp is the storage point for supplies. The busy person in charge shouted for someone to count the remaining quantity, and then turned around and rushed to ask for additional supplies. The captains explained with a smile, the captains Cursing and complaining, at least enough soldiers and food pills, mixed with the painful screams of seriously injured patients being carried over by stretchers, the small place is full of all kinds of noise.

Uzuki Xiyan looked around, and finally had a real sense of war - this is not the defensive garrison they stayed in before, and what they will face is not two or two cloud ninjas, but the entire frontline force.

Hyuga Yayoi took Xiyan into the barracks and found the tent assigned to them.A few people inside had already arrived first, nodding to each other, Yayoi found an empty seat and sat down, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.The injury is in the lungs, every breath is involving the wound, how can it not hurt.

"There are still four hours before dark, hurry up and sleep for a while, once the task starts, there will be no rest time." She told Xiyan.

As soon as the little girl closed her eyes, she stood up again and asked, "Captain, don't you rest?"

"Of course." Yayoi took off the haori and covered Xiyan, "I'll go to sleep after counting the ninja gear."

Only then did Xiyan lie down in peace, and soon fell asleep.It was her first consecutive rapid march, and she was already extremely sleepy.

Yayoi looked down at her face, heard her gradually steady breathing, and after confirming that Xiyan was asleep, took out a partial map and spread it out on the ground, repeatedly confirmed the mission plan, and calculated how to deal with various situations.

In any case, at least let Xiyan come back safely with the information.The shadows of Seiichi and Ren flashed in Yayoi's mind, and she made up her mind.

In the evening, the southwest wind brought thick clouds to cover the sky, and when night fell, there were no stars and no moon, and the world was shrouded in darkness.A night like this is the perfect time for something to happen.

Yayoi Hinata took Uzuki Xiyan to the north in a hurry, and entered the territory of Tian Zhiguo before midnight fell.

This is a small country that borders the countries of Konoha and Swamp. It has no ninjas of its own, nor is it attached to other big countries, and has always maintained a neutral attitude.Yayoi Hinata didn't want to take any risks, so she sneaked into the Marsh Country, which was occupied by Kumo Shinobi as a military base, from Tanokuni, which was a good choice she could make.

They were in the vast plain at the moment, without the cover of the lush forests of the Kingdom of Fire, so they were extra cautious in their actions.Even though there was nothing but low bushes and streams along the way, Hyuga Yayoi insisted on looking around with her white eyes every once in a while, until she reached the border with the country of marshes, and was blocked by a long and swift river.

"Crossing the river is the rear of Yunin's camp." Yayoi looked at Xi Yan, "Have you ever learned how to tread water to cross the river?"

"I used to practice at Muyin River in Konoha."

Xiyan was a little uneasy, it was a calm and gentle river, completely incomparable to the raging and roaring river in front of her.

Yayoi pondered for a moment and asked, "How well do you master the substitute technique?"

"The furthest time is probably..." Xi Yan recalled, pointing to the center of the river.

"Almost." Yayoi bent down and picked up a palm-sized stone, and weighed it in his hand, "It stands to reason that I can carry you there, but—" Yayoi pointed to the wound on his chest, "—so we have to rely on yourself."

"Look at this stone and the broken dead branch hanging on the rock wall on the other side, and use the substitute technique twice in a row. You go first, and if you fail, I will help you."

Seeing Xiyan nod her head, Yayoi held the stone in her hand and threw it towards the center of the turbulent flow.

Uzuki Xiyan formed a seal quickly, and successfully performed the first substitute technique before the stone fell into the river. Perhaps because the distance to the river was too close, the second substitute technique was performed too quickly, and did not succeed after alternating positions with dead branches. Stabilizing her heels on the rock wall, she staggered and fell backwards. She panicked and instinctively crossed her hands to protect her head.

The pain she imagined from falling into the river from a high place did not come, she felt a force tightly grasping her shoulders and lifting her up.

Xi Yan opened her eyes, and saw Yayoi standing steadily on the rapid turbulence.
