Naruto: I Borrow from the Future

Seeing that Ryoma Aburame looked somewhat guilty, it was clear that he had fallen into self-doubt.

Qingye sneered inwardly.

While it cannot be completely ruled out that Danzo leaked information about his whereabouts, it is highly likely that Danzo was not involved.

He had already confirmed this with Mei Terumi.

The Third Mizukage has been staying in seclusion recently, and before that, he suddenly mobilized ninja to invade the Land of the Sea, intending to start another war with Konoha.

Clearly, Old Man Ban has made his move!

The Third Mizukage is probably under Madara Uchiha's control. The previous ambush by Hozuki and his son was likely arranged by Madara.

However, the target was not herself, but Nohara Rin.

As for the whereabouts of his three-person team, Madara Uchiha could naturally obtain this information through the White Zetsu intelligence network, so there was no need for Danzo to leak the information to Kirigakure.

But so what?

Is it really unfair to make Danzo take the blame for Madara Uchiha?

Moreover, even if the Third Hokage were here, if he explained the situation, Hiruzen Sarutobi would probably suspect that Danzo had leaked his information.

A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow; this is the credibility of Danzo!

"Alright, alright, both of you calm down."

Orochimaru cursed Danzo inwardly for always causing him trouble, but on the surface, he smiled warmly and began to persuade him.

Qingye snorted coldly and sheathed his katana: "This matter won't end here. Some people will have to give me an explanation later!"

"..."

The veins on the forehead of the oil-woman dragon horse throbbed.

Uchiha Aoya is too arrogant!

They now completely disregard Lord Danzo and their Root organization!

"I will report this to the village and ask someone to investigate."

Orochimaru replied dismissively, "As for this mission, if Aoya-kun finds it difficult, he can choose to give up, anyway..."

Qingye interrupted directly, saying, "I didn't say I was giving up. I'm accepting this mission."

"..."

Orochimaru was clearly taken aback.

They actually accepted it?

If Sunagakure were to discover this by accident and hold Konoha accountable, Uchiha Aoya would inevitably get himself into a lot of trouble!

Recalling the resume of Aoya that he had just read, Orochimaru suddenly realized.

Would you even take on such a troublesome task for the sake of the village?

Could it be that Uchiha Aoya is also one of those people who deeply believes in the Will of Fire?

But at the same time, they also have the arrogant and domineering side of the Uchiha clan... which is quite interesting.

After seeing Aoya off, Orochimaru couldn't help but sigh:

"The Will of Fire... Ha!"

Giving someone a belief can inspire them to risk their lives.

In this respect, his teacher is indeed more skilled.

"Uchiha Aoya is too arrogant!"

Aburame Ryoma wiped the blood from his forehead, suppressing his anger, and tried to pick up the scattered documents on the ground, but when he saw the table broken in two, he finally couldn't hold back and kicked it.

That knife isn't pointing at him, it's clearly pointing at Lord Danzo's face!

Orochimaru glanced at him coldly: "Ryuma, next time Uchiha Aoya comes over, remember to avoid me. Don't drag me into your business."

"you?"

Aburame Ryoma was taken aback.

……

The Land of Water.

Misty Valley.

A narrow canyon leads directly to the heart of the Water Kingdom, and at one end of the canyon entrance, it is shrouded in mist all year round, making it easy to lose one's way without a guide.

In the forest behind one of the cliffs.

Qingye had just finished interrogating the unfortunate Kirigakure ninja who had come alone to urinate and knocked him unconscious.

Beside him, Kakashi Hatake looked somewhat dazed.

no……

What is all this about?

He was under a lot of pressure when he heard from Qingye that the secret mission was to sabotage the peace talks between Sunagakure and Kirigakure. He was worried about what would happen if his identity was exposed and Sunagakure found out.

He asked on the way here, but Qingye only told him to play it by ear.

This made him worried the whole way.

But after arriving here, they captured a Hidden Mist ninja and interrogated him, only to discover that these people had come to ambush the Sunagakure envoys.

And that Sunagakure messenger was none other than the famous Scorching Release Kekkei ninja of Sunagakure, Yekura!

But the most outrageous things are yet to come!

According to this Chunin from Kirigakure, Pakura was secretly sent by Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure. The two sides reached an agreement in advance, and Pakura was a sacrifice in the peace negotiations between Sunagakure and Kirigakure.

"...I don't understand!"

Kakashi covered his head, his mind was in turmoil and he couldn't understand it at all.

Scorching Release user, Pakura, is one of the strongest shinobi in Sunagakure, isn't he?

In Konoha, that would be roughly equivalent to being slightly lower in status than the Sannin.

Such a vital fighting force for the village, and the Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure just gave it away like that?!

"If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it." Qingye shook his head and said, "Some people's thought processes are something we will never understand in our lifetime. The Fourth Kazekage is arguably the second most eccentric person among the Five Kage of all time."

"……second?"

Kakashi was taken aback: "Then who's number one?"

"you guess."

Qingye chuckled.

Seeing Kakashi start brainstorming again, Aoya didn't explain much and formed two shadow clones.

The user's chakra was reduced to less than half a chakra in an instant.

After explaining the arrangements to Kakashi, he had Kakashi transform into the appearance of a Chunin from Kirigakure, while Aoya's two shadow clones prepared to ambush on the cliffs on both sides of the canyon.

"By the way, Kakashi, you have a dog, right?"

Suddenly, Qingye remembered something and took out a small bottle from his ninja tool bag. Inside was a clump of white cell tissue.

"Yes, we do have ninja dogs. What's wrong?"

Kakashi, not understanding why, summoned Pakkun as instructed by Aoya.

Qingye opened the small bottle and brought it close to Parker's nose: "You can remember this scent, right?"

Sniff sniff—

Parker's nose twitched, his dog face showing some confusion: "What is this thing?"

It looks like the cells of some kind of animal.

But why does it smell like grass?

vegetable?

Qingye didn't say much, but whispered, "Remember this scent. You just need to hide from now on. If anyone smells this scent, don't make a sound. Just remember the location of the other party."

Even though Nohara Rin isn't here, there's no guarantee that Old Madara won't be eyeing him.

It's best to take precautions in advance.

……

Beside the canyon, at the edge of the cliff.

Looking down from here, the fog in this section of the canyon is relatively thin, allowing you to barely see what's below.

"Do you think the two of us Jonin can take down Pakura's Scorch Release: Blaze Release?"

Mizubu, a Jonin from Kirigakure, frowned and questioned.

"We definitely can't fight that woman head-on."

Another Jonin, Mingchao, shook his head and said, "Arrange for someone to lure that woman into the canyon. You and I will each lead a group to ambush her on the cliff. When she reaches this spot, everyone will throw their shuriken down at once!"

If we're not prepared, Yekura will definitely be seriously injured!

Shuimo questioned, "Would she be that stupid?"

The plan sounds feasible, but upon closer inspection, it's riddled with problems.

If Yecang had been more vigilant and dodged the sneak attack, they would have been the ones to die!

With that woman's bloodline limit, the two Jonin plus these dozens of Kirigakure ninjas were simply not enough to kill her!

"If it doesn't work, we can just retreat immediately."

Mingchao said indifferently, "Anyway, it's a free opportunity. To be honest, I still can't believe that the Kazekage of Sunagakure would actually throw that woman here to die."

"...Could this be a conspiracy?" Mizuki immediately became alert. "Could it be that Sunagakure is plotting against us?"

Mingchao thought for a moment and said, "Probably not. If Sunagakure wanted to scheme against us, they would have to make their plans more reasonable, right? The fact that they could do something so outrageous is unlikely to be a scheme; it's more likely that it's the Fourth Kazekage's true intention."

Water Foam: "..."

That makes so much sense!

Having finalized the arrangements, the two men each led half of their men and lay in ambush on the cliffs on both sides of the canyon.

A long time passed.

Through the thin mist, two figures, one in front of the other, could be vaguely seen below.

Those behind them were the Chunin who were arranged to guide them.

And the man in front of them was the murderer who had killed countless of their companions!

"They're here!"

Upon seeing the figure below, Shui Mo gasped. Seeing her own ninja pull out a kunai and stab fiercely before retreating, she immediately waved her hand and shouted, "Release!"

Chi!

Suddenly, a fiery red barrier rose from the ground!

All the thrown kunai and shuriken hit the semi-transparent barrier, but only caused it to ripple slightly.
