Konoha: Start by unlocking the caged bird

Chapter 59 Surrounded
In the following time, Hinata Yuzuru's life was quite boring and boring.

The friction between Konoha and the Hidden Cloud Village has always been quite restrained. Today I will follow the clues to wipe out one of your strongholds hidden in the Land of Hot Springs, and tomorrow you will sneak attack a group of ninjas that are on a mission.

An ambush or encounter would break out almost every once in a while as the two sides went back and forth, but there had never been a large-scale frontal collision.

The Anbu team that Hinata Yuzuru is in is very reasonably composed and powerful.

Regardless of whether Uchiha Shisui meets an ANBU or a jounin from Kumogakure Village, it usually only takes a few dozen seconds to determine the winner. Of course, the so-called winner refers to the combination of his Sharingan and his teleportation after a few teleports. A boring victory over the opponent with one strike.

The rest of the Anbu ninjas are also elite veterans. They are impeccable in terms of intelligence gathering, tactical choices in battle, coordination and tacit understanding, as well as their own strength.

Among them, there is a ninja who has mastered some medical ninjutsu and can provide emergency treatment. There are also Anbu ninjas from the Yamanaka clan who can interrogate for information, and there are Anbu ninjas from the Inuzuka clan who can use their own ninja dogs to cooperate in combat and track down opponents.

With such a combination, the entire ANBU team is invincible and has no disadvantages. It shines in small-scale assassinations and counter-assassinations.

But for Hinata Yuzuru, such a life is not exciting at all.

The main reason is that such a devastating battle cannot provide him with much free experience points at all, and he has no time to train and improve himself. The only ones who have maintained rapid progress during this period are the Byakugan and various physical skills and continuous skills. Opportunities to use Raikiri are few and far between.

However, it is always a good thing that there is no life-and-death crisis. Hyuga Yuzuru never lets down his guard because everyone knows that the lethality caused by such an elite Anbu team is too terrifying and the Hidden Cloud Village cannot turn a blind eye to it.

As a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh, I am afraid that as long as he finds an opportunity, Kumogakure will definitely eliminate this group of elite troops regardless of the cost.

In fact, the collective judgment of Hyuga Yuzuru or the ANBU team members was very correct.

It was the end of November in the 53rd year of Konoha, and a whole year had passed since Hinata Yuzuru last left home. Even on his seventh birthday, Hinata Yuzuru only received a few congratulations from his Anbu friends and was unable to go home.

Also missed a New Year.

Come to think of it, it’s been two years since I’ve been able to celebrate my birthday with my friends and family like I used to.

In the lush forests on the border of the Kingdom of Hot Springs.

The ANBU team where Hyuga Yuzuru was was hiding in the temporary stronghold and took a short rest.

It is called a temporary base, but in fact it is just a relatively hidden small cave.

"Happy birthday, Tsubasa-senpai."

Hinata Yuzuru's sudden voice broke the silence of the quiet rest.

Inuzuka Tsubasa was slightly stunned when he was called, and then he looked up in disbelief: "How did you know that today is my birthday?"

He was wearing a dog face mask and a ninja dog was lying on his knees. At this moment, the ninja dog was also tilting its head with a puzzled look, which was quite funny for some reason.

A gentle smile came from under Hyuga Yuzuru's mask: "During the Chinese New Year, didn't everyone talk about birthdays together?"

Inuzuka Tsubasa then recalled that, because no one could go home for the New Year, they celebrated everyone's safety with a short bonfire dinner. It was also at that time that someone started discussing each other's birthdays.

It’s just that Inuzuka Tsubasa never thought that someone would actually write it down.

"It's not just me." He tilted his head, and Inuzuka Tsubasa followed his line of sight and saw that his other companions under masks were also looking at him with smiles in their eyes.

At the same time, another Anbu who needed to take over the shift because of the shift guard also walked briskly from the cave entrance, with his hands hidden behind his back, and it was obvious that he was hiding something.

"Happy birthday!"

The rest of the Anbu spoke in unison, and the Anbu who came to take over the shift also smiled and stretched out his hand from behind. On his palm was a bag of dog food.

"Wang Wang!"

Inuzuka Tsubasa's expression could not be seen behind his mask, but the ninja dog on his knees could not hide his excitement.

"Thank you, everyone." Inuzuka Tsubasa finally spoke, his voice intermittent, as if he didn't know how to react for a moment.

"There is no way. The last time we went to the town to supply supplies was last month. We originally wanted to buy more, but considering the convenience of movement, we all decided together and chose this."

Just after the ninja holding the dog food finished speaking, the rest of the ANBU also stretched out their hands with smiles. In each of their hands were various kinds of dog food.

The size is not big, and with the appetite of a ninja dog, he can probably eat one bag in one meal, but even so, these are not precious gifts, but Tsubasa Inuzuka is deeply moved.

He stretched out his hand and pressed the Anbu's mask, seeming a little at a loss. Then he took the dog food amidst the barking reminder of the ninja dog, with a slight tremor in his voice and smile: "Really, you are helping Momonosuke." Is it your birthday? I don’t even know whose birthday it is.”

The ninja dog barked a few times, and Hinata Yuzuru's voice came with a smile: "Didn't you say that Momonosuke is a good brother who was born on the same day and month as you?"

Ninja dogs have a long lifespan, and as beings that share the same honor and disgrace as the Inuzuka clan, they are not only the Inuzuka clan's ninja dogs, but also their family members and an important part of their strength.

"Happy birthday is for you. Don't snatch it from Momonosuke."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Everyone enjoyed the rare atmosphere and joked happily.

"Hurry up, let Momonosuke eat, and you still have to go on guard. Shisui is on duty alone now."

An Anbu took off his mask and breathed in the fresh air, revealing a better-looking face with a gentle appearance. It was Sakurajima Yao, the one in the Anbu team who was proficient in medical ninjutsu.

As a medical ninja, the fact that she was able to join the Anbu itself shows that she is quite powerful. Considering her identity as a civilian ninja, it is even more difficult.

In fact, in the team, apart from Hinata Yuzuru, the most popular person is probably the gentle and lively Sakurajima Yao.

The ninja dog named Momonosuke didn't need anyone to urge him. After looking at Inuzuka Tsubasa and seeing that he had no objection, he gritted his teeth, tore open a bag, barked twice, and started eating with a slurp.

"Thank you. Momonosuke is also very grateful to you."

Inuzuka Tsubasa smiled broadly, squatting next to Momonosuke and gently stroking its fur: "Eat quickly."

"Speaking of which, in another month, it will be the birthdays of Seniors Deer and Daisy. I hope we can return to the Fire Country to get some supplies by then, and celebrate your birthdays properly." Hinata Yuzuru suddenly spoke.

Shika and Daisy are two senior ANBU ninjas. Simply based on age, they can be called uncle and aunt. In terms of qualifications and strength alone, they are enough to serve as the captain of the ANBU. In fact, Sakurajima Yao and Inuzuka Tsubasa Once upon a time, they belonged to the teams of two team captains.

The two ANBU ninjas who were called by their code names chuckled twice. The tall female ninja walked over to Hinata Yuzuru and touched his head: "Thank you for remembering. Don't worry, this mission is almost over, and it's time to take a rest."

"We've been on missions outside for a year, we should at least go back and celebrate the New Year." Another ninja echoed her words.

In the Anbu, some are used to being called by their real names, while others are used to being called by code names, such as this female ninja Hinagiku, or another ninja from the Yamanaka clan, Deer.

"Yuzuru-chan is really thoughtful. Oh, my niece is just three years old this year," the elder of the Yamanaka clan codenamed Deer also said with a smile.

"Isn't she only two years old?" Daisy glanced at him unhappily.

"After the Chinese New Year, he will be three years old. Compared with Yuzuru, he is only three or four years older. It's a good match!"

Lu laughed and when he said this, he realized that the boy next to him, who was affectionately called Yuzuru-chan, was actually not much older than his niece.

It’s also a moment when a group of people are relaxing.

Momonosuke suddenly stopped chewing the dog food. His nose moved slightly and he made a confused barking sound.

Inuzuka Tsubasa took off his mask at this moment, and one could clearly see his expression change slightly. Hinata Yuzuru didn't need to be reminded at all and subconsciously rolled his eyes.

The Byakugan's vision continued to penetrate obstacles, and the field of vision with almost no blind spots spread out until a familiar chakra meridian appeared in the field of vision, moving towards his direction at high speed. Hinata Yuzuru immediately shouted loudly: "Prepare to meet the enemy!"

"Momonosuke said that he smelled Shisui's scent!" Inuzuka Tsubasa also quickly translated what Momonosuke wanted to express.

Without any delay, even Momonosuke immediately gave up eating. A group of Anbu decisively rushed out of the cave and headed straight for the original sentry.

"Five at eight o'clock, twenty-one at twelve o'clock, and eight at four o'clock."

"Nineteen people at six o'clock."

Hinata Yuzuru used the instant body-flickering technique to quickly rush to the battlefield with other Anbu, while observing the situation with his Byakugan dilated as much as possible.

At this moment, the coverage detection distance of Hyuga Yuzuru's Byakugan has reached a frightening five kilometers. At this moment, his LV10 Byakugan has been developed to a level that is difficult for the ordinary Hyuga clan to reach. In terms of eye power alone, it is probably enough to be the most powerful in the history of the Hyuga clan. Leave a mark on everything.

If the Otsutsuki clan were born on the moon, such powerful eye power would be enough for them to awaken special abilities.

The Anbu members who received the information felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.

surrounded.

"Shisui is evacuating us and breaking out from four o'clock!"

After assessing the situation with his Byakugan, Hinata Yuzuru made a prompt decision.

"Understood!" The other Anbu had great trust in Hinata Yuzuru's judgment and immediately began to change direction.

However, Hyuga Yuzuru's speed exploded, and he used all his strength to use the teleportation technique to connect with Shisui.

Uchiha Shisui was also extremely fast. He retreated at full speed the moment he noticed something was wrong from the periphery, preparing to inform his teammates. When he saw Hinata Yuzuru coming towards him, he felt a little relieved - it seemed that he had not been ambushed.

"A large group of enemies is advancing towards us. I suspect it's a targeted raid."

"There is no doubt that we have been surrounded. We are evacuating at full speed towards the four o'clock direction. We must fight quickly. Once we are surrounded, we will be in trouble."

Hyuga Yuzuru led Uchiha Shisui to turn quickly. The speed of the two of them was unparalleled. They were the last to catch up with the ANBU teammates who turned early.

"What is the total number of enemies?"

"There are forty-five besides the eight at four o'clock."

Hinata Yuzuru's words made him look gloomy: "The information was leaked"

This incident means a lot.

Perhaps a traitor appeared, or perhaps the companion who was delivering the information was robbed and killed along the way, and the news was leaked.

But no matter what, there is no way to find the answer at this moment.

"kill!"

Uchiha Shisui spoke concisely and to the point, and drew out the sword from behind, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Just a few minutes later, the ANBU team officially met with the eight Kumogakure who were surrounding them.

Faced with the sudden rush of the Anbu team, the eight ninjas were obviously caught off guard. They did not expect that the encirclement would be discovered in advance. However, when the two sides met, there was no need to reveal their identities and intentions.

"Fire Escape·The Great Fire Extinguishes!"

"Tooth tooth!"

"Lightning Release: Sanda Mu Liudou!"

The two parties didn't hold anything back, and as soon as they met, they handed over all their most handy killing moves.

In the air, thunder and fire flickered, and the light of swords and shadows of fists intertwined.

The first streak of blood spurted out in less than ten seconds.
