Naruto: The Defense-Breaking System – Putting Some Pressure on the Shinobi World

The next day, Uchiha Ryo, Mitarashi Anko, and Dokuro arrived at the Hokage Building at the agreed time.

At the ninja registration desk in the Hokage Building, the ninja in charge asked unexpectedly, "You're the first team to register as genin. Did your instructor finish the assessment this morning?"

"Our teacher was incredibly kind; he didn't give us any tests and just directly granted us the status of Genin."

"Oh? Such a good teacher? What's your teacher's name?"

"Orochimaru, Sannin Orochimaru-sama."

The flesh on the ninja's face began to twitch.

Orochimaru? Kind-hearted? Exceptionally kind-hearted?

Besides the name, which other word here is real?

"Oh, haha." The ninja in charge laughed awkwardly, not revealing the cruel truth to the three, and said, "Come on, remember your ninja numbers, fill out the forms, and have your photos taken."

After completing a series of procedures and receiving their respective headbands, the three went downstairs.

They encountered other teams registering and discovered that each team had a supervising teacher who would take photos with the genin.

Du Lejiong complained, "What? So the Jonin who leads the team is supposed to be in the group photo? There are only the three of us in our photo."

"Ahem," said Uchiha Ryo.

"Du Le Jiong, as you know, I'm eager to show off in front of Orochimaru-sensei."

"You gave me the material, and I'm going to report you to Orochimaru-sensei, saying that you harbor deep resentment towards him."

Du Lejiong tensed up instantly. Uchiha Rin was such a despicable person; he was not only capable of doing such a thing, but he would also do it very actively.

"You, you, you! I, I..."

Mitarashi Anko quickly said, "Ryo, don't scare Dokkyo. What we need to think about now is how to get to the front lines."

Just then, Uchiha Ryo suddenly turned his head.

Mitarashi Anko and Dokura Kyou saw Uchiha Ryo turn his head and followed his gaze.

An additional member of the secret service appeared behind him.

"Class 1, here are your mission scrolls and exit permits."

The other two looked at Uchiha Rin, who, despite his wickedness, was strong.

Uchiha Ryo took the scroll and proof, and wanted to ask something, but the Anbu had already disappeared.

Du Lejiong, his face full of worry, couldn't help but say, "This isn't training new talent, this is..."

He quickly observed Uchiha Ryo, and seeing the intrigued look in her eyes, he shut up.

A teacher who never shows his face, and a weird teammate—it's too difficult.

"Meet me at the entrance of Konoha Village in an hour. Go home and prepare yourselves."

Mitarashi Anko reminded her, "Uchiha Ryo, you're bad at math. It takes about six days to get from Konoha to the front lines of Takigakure. Don't miscalculate the rations."

Uchiha Ryo's face darkened. His label was that he was bad at math?

Du Lejiong exclaimed as if he had discovered a new continent: "What? Uchiha Ryo can't do multiplication? Can you do addition and subtraction within 100? Isn't that too difficult? What about addition and subtraction within 20?"

He stared at Uchiha Ryo, only to find a pair of sharp eyes.

Du Lejiong quickly shut up.

"I'm a good person. You've known me for so many years, I'm a good classmate."

If you were in danger on the front lines, I would have saved you without hesitation, even if it was eight or ten times.

But you actually mocked me for being bad at math. Sorry, I can't count.

He held up two fingers: "I'll only save you three times from now on! Cherish these three chances!"

Du Lejiong really wants to ask, was it two times or three times?

Mitarashi Anko patted her forehead in exasperation, feeling that her future was bleak.

Being assigned to Orochimaru's team was bad enough, but then there was Uchiha Rin, the big mouth, and Du Le Jiong, the idiot.

She hurriedly went home to pack her things.

She didn't know how to use a knife, but she carried three ninja tool pouches, all of which were filled with kunai.

She also carried a backpack containing a change of clothes and some rations.

After she finished getting ready and went out, she ran into Kurenai Yuhi on the way.

Kurenai Yuhi, along with Kurenai Yuhi, Aoba Yamashiro, and Raido Namiashi, headed towards the Hokage Building.

Kurenai excitedly came over to greet us: "Anko, we just picked up our headbands from the Hokage Building, but you guys got them even faster than us! What kind of D-rank mission did you get? We're looking for a stray cat that's been biting people."

Mitarashi Anko pushed up her headband under her bangs and said sadly, "Our mission is to report to the front line in the Land of Waterfall. If we survive for five months on the front line, we can see Orochimaru-sensei again."

"What? There's such a mission?"

Kurenai turned and glanced at her father.

Kurenai Yuhi frowned. That person was being far too reckless.

After Mitarashi Anko left, Yuhi Shinku said:

"During the Second Shinobi World War, Lord Orochimaru had a disciple named Nawaki."

Nawaki was Tsunade's younger brother, but he died in front of Orochimaru, who then underwent a drastic change in personality.

Spurred by the death of Nawaki, Lord Orochimaru developed a peculiar view of the genin.

Many people in Konoha exhibit strange behaviors and eccentric personalities due to various provocations.

Kurenai Yuhi thought about it and began to understand Orochimaru somewhat.

Nawaki was Tsunade's only younger brother. Orochimaru and Tsunade were both Legendary Sannin, grew up together, and fought together. In the end, Nawaki died in front of Orochimaru, and just hearing about it is painful.

Kurenai Yuhi began to worry about another matter: Uchiha Ryo was in a team with Anko, so was Uchiha Ryo also going to the front lines?

She wasn't worried about Uchiha Ryo's strength; what she was worried about was that Uchiha Ryo would be isolated by the command headquarters after going to the front lines and wouldn't receive any support.

Ninjas cannot function without intelligence support or logistical support.

Perhaps Uchiha Ryo wouldn't isolate the command center?

"Father, who is the commander-in-chief of the battlefield in the Land of Waterfall?"

"Danzo, advisor to Shimura Danzo."

"Oh, you're Danzo's advisor."

"Daughter, you're acting like you know everything about Danzo."

"I know him. I saw him speaking on the rooftop of the Hokage Building two years ago."

Kurenai Yuhi shook her head and said nothing more.

When the battlefield of Takigakure was mentioned, Kurenai Yuhi felt somewhat worried.

The battle in Taki no Kyu was very difficult, with heavy casualties, and it was unclear when things would turn around.

At the main gate of Konoha, Uchiha Ryo was greeted by his two teammates.

Hongdou was fine, but Dulejiong carried a huge bag that stretched from his bottom to the top of his head.

"Oh? Du Lejiong, I misjudged you. I didn't expect you to have caught Orochimaru-sensei's weakness."

"Huh? What flaw?"

"We need to hold out on the front lines for five months. If we just take two months to slowly climb up to the front lines, wouldn't we be able to safely drag out the entire two months?"

"How is that possible! Two months is an outrageous amount; he'd be executed for cowardice in war!"

"With that huge bag, are you going on a spring outing or a picnic?"

Seeing Uchiha Ryo enjoying himself under pressure, Mitarashi Anko became even more anxious. What should she do? She felt that this team had no hope.
