Naruto: Learn the Substitution Jutsu and use it to create Star Platinum?

So what attracts him is not the princess, but... the princess who is in danger.

For example, there might be evil forces that persecute princesses, or dragons, but in the end, they are defeated and leave behind their own legends in that country.

It doesn't matter who the princess is; what matters is rescuing the princess and becoming a hero.

"hey-hey."

"Kakashi, is Obito alright?"

Rin turned her head and looked at Obito, who was occasionally chuckling to himself, with some worry.

"Don't worry about him."

Kakashi replied speechlessly.

"By the way, Kakashi, I feel like... Tanaka Chunin, is he a little afraid of Lin Yi-sensei?"

Lin recalled Tanaka's performance in the mission hall just now.

Don't underestimate Tanaka just because he's only a Chunin. He's a ninja who can sit in the Hokage Building. It's not uncommon for Jonin to see him every day, so why is he so... trembling with fear in front of Teacher Lin Yi?

"I'm not too sure. Like you, I've only been on a mission to Loulan with my senior brother."

Kakashi could actually sense it too, but since it definitely wasn't his senior's problem, he didn't bother to think about it further.

Upon arriving at the inn, the innkeeper, upon recognizing the ninja, immediately went to notify the guest in the corresponding room, who was also the person who had commissioned Lin Yi and his group for this mission, Asama Santayu.

"Uchiha Lin Yi is the captain of the ninja team that will be protecting your country's princess, and he is also a Jonin."

Lin Yi showed the mission description and registration information to Asama Santayu.

The other party nodded without any reaction. He was unfamiliar with the ninja world and this was his first time in Konoha. In the past, such escort missions were usually handled by the Snow Village of his own country.

After the princess returned from her boat trip to the Water Kingdom, she heard that a war had just broken out here.

Asama Santayu was worried that ordinary guards could not protect the princess well, so he came to the relatively peaceful Land of Fire to entrust ninjas to escort her.

However, Konoha is not short of missions now. Not only have the reward requirements increased, but after playing with the princess for so long, he has spent almost all the money he had on him. He can only afford to pay for A-level missions.

He had considered issuing an S-rank mission on credit, but Konoha was currently not short of missions, and it had little contact with the Land of Snow, so he was unaware of the other party's creditworthiness. Naturally, he refused Asama Santayu's request to get on the bus first and pay the fare later.

So, in the end, Asama had no choice but to issue an A-level mission.

While completing the check-out procedures, Asama Santayu looked Lin Yi up and down.

He looks like a really powerful person.

Then he saw the three little ones behind Lin Yi and frowned.

How could you try to fool me with just three little devils?

"The Land of Snow is very cold; children probably can't handle it."

Asama Santayu had served as a close attendant to the princess for many years, so she naturally possessed the art of speaking.

"Uncle, we're all Chunin, what's a little bit of cold to us?"

Before Lin Yi could explain, Obito patted his chest.

Look, the icy and snowy environment, the resolute hero, the trapped princess—it's all so fitting!

"So young, and he's already a Chunin?"

Asama Santayu may not understand the ninja world, but the Snow Village in the Land of Snow is also divided according to the common ninja ranks.

In Yukigami Village, a Chunin is considered a pretty good ninja, capable of taking on more than ten elite guards.

"Yes, they are all excellent ninjas, so please rest assured."

Lin Yi nodded and added a sentence.

Asama Santayu came to Konoha alone to issue the mission, not to save money, but mainly because he was concerned about the princess's safety and did not want her to travel with him.

The group, carrying their belongings, arrived outside the village with Asama Santayu.

"Do you... need horses?"

Asama, who had mounted his horse, hesitated for a moment before speaking to the four of them.

The Land of Snow is an island nation located in the northernmost part of the ninja world.

They were heading to a port in the northeast of the Land of Fire, and would travel north by ship.

"No need, Your Excellency can simply lead the way at full speed."

Lin Yi really thought the technology in the ninja world was strangely advanced. You could say it was backward, but it had televisions, cameras, and could even watch movies.

You say he's developed, yet he still basically uses horses or horse-drawn carriages for long-distance travel.

Asama Santayu, riding on horseback, looked back as his horse rose and fell, and saw that the four of them were steadily following behind him...

Ok? !

"You...you're flying?!"

Chapter 128 Princess of the Snow Country - Kazahana Koyuki

Kakashi and his two companions naturally followed behind, running without even breaking a sweat.

However, Lin Yi was floating in the air with his hands behind his back.

Asama Santayu rubbed his eyes.

That's right, it's walking in mid-air.

Kakashi knew that Lin Yi could fly; he saw it when Lin Yi flew to the edge of his house to look for Sakumo Hatake.

Obito and Rin were initially surprised, but seeing that Kakashi didn't say anything, they calmed down.

"careful!"

Obito quickly reminded Asama Santayu, whose horse had become somewhat out of control because he had turned around to pull on the reins.

In an instant, a gust of air lifted Asama, who was about to be thrown off the horse.

"Watch where you're going."

Lin Yi lowered his eyes and gently reminded him.

"Okay, okay."

Asama Santayu wiped the cold sweat that had just broken out on his body.

At the same time, I asked myself the same question.

Can the Jonin of Yukigami Village fly?

Asama became more humble afterward.

Actually, he didn't mean to look down on them. When he first saw Kakashi and the other two, he was more worried about the safety of his princess and whether they could withstand the pressure.

After all, compared to the Land of Fire, which has four seasons, the Land of Snow, which is cold all year round... isn't really as romantic as people imagine.

After resting in the wild for a day, the group arrived at the port.

As Asama Santayu boarded the ship, Lin Yi looked around.

It wasn't the kind of ancient ship you might imagine.

It leans more towards modern times; the ship is quite large and has many rooms.

Asama Santayu first prepared rooms for them and put their luggage in, then hurriedly went out.

The group briefly looked around their rooms, where toiletries were already prepared.

The voyage will take approximately three days and two nights, with resupply stops in the Land of Lightning and the Land of Frost.

"So, are you all satisfied?"

Asama Santayu brought a little girl to the four of them.

"Uh-huh!"

Obito nodded vigorously.

Lin stood on the deck, gazing at the boundless sea, took out her camera from her pocket, and took a few pictures.

This was her first time on a boat at sea.

"It's so beautiful."

Scroll back through the photos.

The scenery above has transformed into a magnificent desert, and the people in the picture are the same people, only a bit more youthful.

Desert, sea, and the snow country I'm about to see... I'm really looking forward to it.

"By the way, Uncle Santaifu, how is your Snow Country's princess?"

"How about it?"

Asama Santayu was somewhat puzzled, and the little girl next to her also caught her attention.

"Oh my, isn't she as beautiful as the princess in the movie?"

Obito scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.

Princess Sara was actually quite beautiful, but Loulan was too poor, and everyone's attention was focused on Naruto, the "transmigrator," so Obito didn't really pay much attention to her.

"Hahahaha, of course it looks good."

"That's the cutest princess in the whole world."

Asama Santayu responded with a smile, while the little girl next to her blushed slightly.

"Xiaolin is the cutest."

Obito muttered to himself, then prepared to admire the sea view.

Turning my head, I saw a gentle breeze caressing the sea surface, and birds chirping.

Above, the sky was clear and blue, a vast expanse of blue.

Below, the water stretches to the horizon, a vast expanse of clear blue.

Between the blue sky and the blue sea, the sea breeze gently swayed Lin's hair, outlining her gentle profile.

For a moment, Obito even forgot his dream of becoming a hero.
