Chapter 85 Yang Cheng: Shall we also go to the Land of Waves?

The ronin and thugs aren't the point at all. The point is, if these ronin and thugs are in the Land of Waves, could they be Gato's men?

"Hey, Yang Cheng, are you guys also planning to go out on a mission today?"

At the gates of Konoha, Team 6, who had already assembled, happened to encounter Team 7, who were waiting for Kakashi.

Because Yang Cheng and Naruto had a good relationship at the Ninja Academy, they greeted each other.

As always, Erzhuzi acted like he was the most important person in the world, and although he glanced at Yang Cheng, he didn't even bother to greet him.

Sakura, being close friends with Ino, smiled and nodded at Makoto.

"Are you on an escort mission this time?"

Yang Cheng glanced at Tazna in their team and asked with an indescribable expression.

Naruto originally wanted to say something more, but he quickly remembered that the ninja code strictly forbade revealing the details of one's mission to others, not even one's own comrades from the same village, unless there were special circumstances.

"Escort missions often involve unexpected dangers, so please be extra careful."

Naruto and the others were unwilling to reveal anything, and Yang Cheng didn't pay much attention to it. In fact, when Yang Cheng saw Tazuna, he already had a clue.

"You're close to that blond kid?"

When Anko returned to her team, she glanced at Team 7 and the others with great interest, and was very curious about the rather good relationship between Yang Cheng and Naruto.

Hongdou had read Yang Cheng's information and knew that his parents died in the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage.

And it is for this reason that many people in the village have various forms of rejection and disgust towards Naruto.

Many of those who lost loved ones in the riots even blamed Naruto as the culprit.

"It's not bad, considering they're all childhood friends and orphans."

"Then you should know that he is actually—"

Before Hongdou could finish speaking, Yang Cheng interrupted her, saying, "I know Naruto's situation very well, but what caused my parents' deaths was something inside him, not him, right?"

The entity inside Naruto must have been sealed inside him since birth, right?

At that time, he didn't have any choice, did he? He did nothing wrong, yet he bore everyone's resentment and even became a symbol of misfortune.

If you really want revenge, then you should find the real culprit, not my friend Naruto Uzumaki.

Hearing Yang Cheng's words, Hongdou was clearly stunned for a moment, but soon a gratified smile appeared on her face, and she rubbed Yang Cheng's hair with her hand and said, "Well said, you truly deserve to be my prized disciple, Mitarashi Anko."

Hongdou never expected that Yang Cheng, at only eleven or twelve years old, would have a much clearer understanding of things than many adults in the village.

She had previously wondered if Yang Cheng was unaware of Naruto's true identity.

But now it seems she was overthinking it. Even ordinary people in Konoha call Naruto "the little fox demon" or something like that. How could Yang Cheng, who was adopted by the Yamanaka family, not know that Naruto was the Nine-Tails of the past?

Compared to Team 7, who were still waiting for the notoriously late Kakashi, Yang Cheng and his team, fully prepared, quickly set off.

Moreover, on their way to their destination, Yang Cheng and his group discovered two Kirigakure genin who had turned into puddles and were lurking on the road.

However, when Yang Cheng and his friends passed by, the other party did not make a move, so Yang Cheng and Hong Dou didn't bother with them.

Their mission wasn't escorting, and without the burden of ordinary people, the ninjas could travel quite quickly.

After just one day and one night of rapid travel, Yang Cheng's Team Six had already entered the Land of Waves and, based on information provided by passersby, found the hideout of these ronin and thugs.

During the same mission in the Land of Waves, Yang Cheng was initially worried about whether he would encounter Zabuza Momochi and Haku.

But as it turned out, his worries were completely unfounded. After they wiped out all the ronin and thugs who claimed to be ninjas, no other ninjas appeared during that time.

Because it was the first time they had taken someone's life, both Ben Ailing and Luo Chuanwu vomited violently on the spot, while Yang Cheng remained completely normal throughout.

After all, this might be his first time killing someone in the Naruto world, but Yang Cheng had experienced the memories and feelings associated with killing before.

Leaving aside his role as a bounty hunter in the One Piece world, in the Akame ga Kill! world, he first served as a general and then as an assassin, truly a ruthless killer.

The idea of ​​his first experience with bloodshed was completely unnecessary for him; in fact, when it came to killing, probably no one present could be more professional than him.

After the rogues and thugs were wiped out, Hongdou was quite satisfied with Yang Cheng and the others' performance and said that she would reward them by having them eat dumplings together when they returned to the village.

However, on their way back to the village, they unexpectedly encountered some trouble.

No, to be more precise, it should be that others encountered some trouble, which was then encountered by them as they were preparing to return home.

Just like in the original story, Naruto's Team 7 received a mission that was ostensibly a C-rank mission, but in reality, the difficulty level was A-rank.

Escort missions of the highest level, or even the highest level, such as S-class.

Zabuza Momochi, a rogue ninja from Kirigakure and one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, was known as the "Demon."

Missions that involve conflict or battle with ninjas are generally classified as Rank B missions.

National-level commissions, such as missions to protect the daimyo, are classified as Class A missions.

To face off against an elite Jonin, especially one who is a renowned figure from one of the other five great ninja villages, would almost certainly fall into the category of an S-rank mission.

After all, even among the five great ninja villages, the number of elite Jonin is extremely limited, and the current opponent of Team 7 is Zabuza Momochi.

That's what it is.

When Yang Cheng and his group passed by, Kakashi, the only high-level combatant present, had already been trapped by Zabuza using the Water Prison Technique.

Naruto and Sasuke, despite using a beautiful coordinated attack, successfully defeated Zabuza's water clone.

However, unlike the original storyline, the Kirigakure brothers, who were supposed to be killed by Naruto and his friends on the way, not only survived but also appeared here.

With their help, Naruto and Sasuke managed to defeat Zabuza's water clone, but they were unable to free Kakashi immediately.

"Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique!"

As ninjas from the same village, Yoshinori and his companions naturally couldn't stand idly by when they saw Team 7 in dire straits.

After instructing Yang Cheng to take good care of Rin and Takeru, Anko almost without hesitation used a Fire Release ninjutsu on Zabuza, the strongest player on the field.

A high-speed, straight-line flame shot out. Although it was only a C-rank fire jutsu, given Anko's exceptional jonin level, the two genin brothers from Kirigakure were naturally unable to withstand it.
