I'm in Konoha, and I started with Ashura Chakra.

Chapter 27 I just love big ones, the ability of a spatial backpack.

Liu Sheng's intensity was clearly too much, causing all the results of his two months of training to be wiped out in one fell swoop.

Hinata had never experienced such a linguistic shock before.

Upon waking up, she immediately reverted to her old ostrich-like self, keeping her head down and her cheeks still flushed.

However, with her head down like this, her conscience, which was already quite large due to her gluttonous nature and the fact that Ino and Sakura would surely envy and be jealous of, became even more conspicuous.

At this rate of development, Hinata will probably become a baby-faced, huge... thing in no time.

Seeing Hinata with her head down, Yagyu was afraid that she would feel guilty or ashamed of her early development, like some heroines in manga. So, he comforted her without thinking, "It's okay, Hinata. It's good to be older. I like it when you're older."

hum-

Like the sound of a train whistle, a white mushroom cloud suddenly rose above Hinata's head.

Immediately, the girl collapsed onto the tatami mat and fainted again!

Yagyu: "..."

------

The next day, at 7:30 in the morning.

The eighth squad arrived at the village entrance early to gather and wait for the arrival of Xi Ri Hong and the caravan.

Aburame Shino, carrying a backpack, looked at Yagyu who had no luggage and asked, "Yagyu, aren't you carrying any luggage?"

Hinata, who hadn't dared to meet Yagyu's gaze since waking up yesterday, was also looking at Yagyu with curiosity.

She felt a pang of regret, blaming herself for being too cowardly. She should have helped Yagyu-kun pack his luggage yesterday before going back.

Yagyu took out a scroll and smiled, "I have very little luggage; everything is stored in the storage scroll."

This is a lie!

The scroll is completely empty.

Liu Sheng's luggage was all stored in his spatial backpack.

Besides the equipment drops from monster battles, the best feature of the game system is undoubtedly the 5x5 grid backpack.

Yagyu has already tested it; the spatial backpack is the same as the backpack in the game.

The twenty-five spatial compartments can only store inanimate objects, and the weight and volume of the objects cannot exceed that of the host, Yagyu.

As long as the number of objects stored in the space backpack does not exceed that of the host, Yagyu, identical objects will overlap and occupy only one space slot.

However, the maximum number of overlaps is only ninety-nine.

If used properly, Yagyu's spatial backpack can hold a lot of things.

"A storage roll?"

Shino Aburame and Hinata seemed to realize something.

Then, Class 8 fell silent again.

This was something that even Yagyu could not do.

One was reserved and aloof, the other shy and silent; no matter the topic, it would end quickly, and Liu Sheng didn't know how to liven things up.

Therefore, Yagyu could only close his eyes and rest.

Time quickly passed to eight o'clock.

Kurenai and the caravan did not keep Yagyu and his companions waiting for long, and soon they arrived at the village entrance together.

"This is Mr. Yamada. You must protect him these next few days," Kurenai Yuhi introduced to the three Yagyu.

"Yes, Teacher Hong."

The three Yagyu brothers nodded in response.

Mr. Yamada smiled kindly and said, "You must be tired from your journey. I'll treat you to a proper meal when we get back to the iron mine village."

Mr. Yamada's words instantly won the favor of the three Yagyu.

Compared to Tazuna, whom Team 7 encountered in the original story, this client is far superior; no wonder he's the head of the caravan.

After a brief introduction, Kurenai Yuhi and Mr. Yamada handed their exit permits to the Chunin guarding the gate.

For the first time since their birth, the three Yagyu have finally left the Konoha military base.

Hinata's face was full of anticipation, and she was very curious about what the outside world was like.

Shino Aburame remained cool, hands in her pockets, as if she didn't care about anything.

In fact, he was even more excited than Hinata.

Only Yagyu truly didn't care.

Although he lived in a steel city before his time travel, Yagyu was actually a child from the countryside.

Even though he had never seen this world, which had no paved roads and where nobles relied on horse-drawn carriages for transportation, Yagyu could guess what it was like.

Aside from the fresh air and beautiful natural scenery, it's just a muddy, rickety road.

When they encounter passing carriages, they also ingest a lot of dust.

If it weren't for the numerous D-rank missions that tempered their minds, this method of traveling on foot would actually be a form of torture for the three of them.

It's really exaggerated how ninjas travel at full speed.

At the very beginning of the original Shippuden series, Team 7 set off to rescue Gaara, and in just one day, they arrived at Sunagakure from Konoha.

In between, there are not only the territories of two large countries, but also the small countries in between.

Yagyu had excellent history grades and knew the location of the River Country.

This country is sandwiched between the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind. The Akatsuki organization sealed Gaara's One-Tailed Shukaku in a cave in the Land of Rivers.

This country is full of mountains and forests.

Some towns and villages are built either at the foot of the mountain or on the mountain.

Villages built on mountains are also known as mountain villages.

If nothing unexpected happens, Tiekuang Village is one of the mountain villages.

The name of the village itself suggests that the caravan came to Konoha to do business in iron ore.

Given the abundance of mountains, it was normal for bandits to roam freely.

The enemies they are most likely to encounter along the way are bandits.

Thinking of this, Liu Sheng felt slightly disappointed.

Bandits are a group of poor people who can't survive, and the chance of them becoming traitors is close to zero.

However, what disappointed Yagyu was yet to come.

Mr. Yamada may be carrying a huge sum of money, and this money doesn't belong to him alone.

To avoid any unforeseen circumstances, Mr. Yamada had already purchased sufficient supplies before leaving Konoha.

Along the way, the caravan avoided all populated areas, trying to get back to the iron mine village as quickly as possible.

At night, we camped directly in the wild.

Therefore, the eighth squad took turns keeping watch at night, which was extremely boring.

It took the caravan three whole days to leave the Land of Fire.

After entering the territory of the Land of Rivers, Hinata, who frequently activated her Byakugan, indeed discovered that many bandits were eyeing the caravan.

However, after the scouts discovered the Eighth Platoon and reported back, the bandits left again.

Quite a few clever bandits tried to follow the caravan to see where it was headed, planning to make their move after the Eighth Squad left.

After obtaining Kurenai Yuhi's permission, Shino Aburame immediately dispatched insects, causing the bandits who were following them to collapse and become unable to get up.

On the fifth day after leaving Konoha, Team 8 and their caravan, having traversed mountains and conquered various harsh environments, finally arrived at the iron mine village built on a certain mountain.

Both are villages, but compared to Konoha, Iron Mine Village is like heaven and earth.

It was less of a village and more of a mining construction site.

Apart from the elderly, women, and children, almost all the other villagers were digging holes and mining.

Seeing this, Class 8 no longer had any intention of resting here for a few days.

After politely declining Mr. Yamada's invitation to stay, Kurenai Yuhi received her mission reward and led the Eighth Squad down the mountain to return home.

However, after descending the mountain, Team 8 was preparing to use the Body Flicker Technique to travel back to Konoha as quickly as possible.

Suddenly, a group of figures wearing black raincoats appeared ahead.

Upon seeing this group of people, both Kurenai and Hinata's expressions changed slightly.

Kurenai Yuhi made a gesture with her back to the three Yagyu.

Hinata then leaned close to Yagyu and whispered, "When we were going up the mountain, I used my Byakugan to observe the surroundings, but I didn't see this group of people."

Upon hearing this, Yagyu and Shino Aburame immediately tensed up, continuing forward while reaching for their ninja tool pouches at their waists, ready to attack at any moment.
