I founded the "Bragging Cult" in Naruto.

Chapter 79 When you have a feeling something is wrong, it's best to trust your intuition.

"Yo! Tatsuma, you're here again. This time it's been 33 minutes since you left last time. You've improved."

Inside the communications unit's barracks, a middle-aged man with blond hair saw Tatsuma appear and, glancing at the clock, jokingly asked, "Uncle Yamanakatani, any news from the front lines?" Tatsuma scratched his head and asked, "Uncle Yamanakatani, any news from the front lines?"

Chenma was proficient in the arts of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and had a sweet tongue. Upon seeing his smile, Yamanaka Tani thought of the child still in his wife's womb, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face as he said:

"Of course I have the information, but what about what you promised to exchange?"

Chenma chuckled, picked up the cloth bag in his hand, took out several lunch boxes and handed them to the communications team. Because they needed to keep in touch with the main force, the Hyuga team and the village at the same time, the communications team dared not leave.

Originally, he thought he would just hold on and eat a soldier's ration pill if he got hungry, but since this guy from the communications unit happened to be visiting, Yamanakaya naturally did his best and asked Tatsuma to help get the food.

As Yamanakaya opened his lunchbox, he said, "Things are going well at the front. Although Chiyo's appearance was unexpected, we have Tsunade and Orochimaru on our side, which gives us an advantage."

Hearing this, Tatsuma nodded, feeling slightly relieved. He then asked, "What about Hyuga?"

Yamanaka Tani shook his head and said, "That's an infiltration, and it's much slower than the main force. They've probably only entered the heart of the Land of Rivers, and they won't reach the Land of Wind's camp until tomorrow at the earliest."

"is that so?"

"Well, don't worry. Hyuga Tomo and Hyuga Minamoto are both outstanding members of the Hyuga clan in this generation. Especially Hyuga Tomo, as long as nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely be a future elder of the main family."

Moreover, their operation this time was merely to investigate whether the Sunagakure camp was developing new poisons. The situation at the Sunagakure camp should be similar to ours; they could take it down easily.

Yamanaka offered a few words of comfort, showing great patience; after all, who would dislike a child who cares about others?

However, after saying that, he also felt hungry and began to shovel rice into his mouth. The environment of the battlefield was not comparable to that of the village. Even in the Yamanaka Valley, where the ninja clan originated, there was no requirement for elegant eating manners.

Chenma didn't disturb them. Instead, he waited quietly until they finished eating before helping them pack up their lunchboxes and then taking them to the logistics department.

Every ninja who goes to the battlefield needs to be prepared to fight and even die, but at the same time, not every ninja has the opportunity to go to the battlefield to fight the enemy.

Besides frontline combat, logistical support and medical care are extremely important in war. Therefore, cooking and cleaning are also handled by specialized ninjas, who are all junior ninjas.

The genin didn't feel slighted when carrying out such missions. After all, even washing dishes and cooking were considered wartime achievements, and the rewards were even more generous than those for D-rank missions in the village.

Not only in terms of money, but also in terms of merit. If the war is prolonged, the village will give them more rewards depending on the duration and difficulty of the mission, or even raise the mission level to enrich their resumes.

Even during the previous Ninja World War, these kinds of positions were highly sought after. You didn't need to go to the battlefield; you could earn a lot of merit and rewards just by doing logistics in the rear.

As he handed the lunchbox to the logistics ninja, Tatsuma thought to himself that if he hadn't obtained the system but still chose the path of a ninja, he would most likely have chosen to work here.

Although these genin would have to go to the battlefield once the war reached its climax, it might not be such a terrible time.

Afterwards, Tatsuma returned to the communications unit and listened to the latest news. Overall, the reports from the large force led by Tsunade and Orochimaru could be considered good news.

But the very next day at noon, when Chenma arrived with the communications squad's lunchboxes, the alarm bells went off in the communications unit. He rushed in and asked, "What happened?"

Yamanaka's expression darkened slightly as he said, "The Hyuga team sent out a distress signal, but we haven't been able to get through to Lady Tsunade's communications. It's possible that Sunagakure is intentionally interfering."

"The Hyuga team? What happened over there?"

Tatsuma also became serious, and Yamanaka Tani shook his head, saying, "It was just an emergency signal. When I tried to reply, I couldn't get through."

Upon hearing this, Chenma pondered briefly before quickly saying, "Uncle Yamanakatani, please contact the village as soon as possible to request support."

Then I dispatched ninjas to follow the main force's route to the front lines to report to the instructor, while I led the combat ninjas along the Hyuga's route to see if we could provide support.

"No, you can't go."

Yamanakaya shook his head. The ninjas in the camp all knew more or less that although Tatsuma had come here with the main force, he was not allowed to participate in the battle.

Tatsuma ignored him and instead took out the Hyuga team's route map from the communications tent. He had been hanging around here for two days and was quite familiar with what had happened recently.

After receiving the route map, Tatsuma looked at Yamanakatani again and said, "Uncle Yamanakatani, there's no time to hesitate. I'll go and notify the others first. Remember to follow up."

After saying that, Tatsuma ran straight out of the tent. Seeing Tatsuma's determination, Yamanaka Tani didn't say anything more, but turned to his somewhat bewildered colleagues and said:

"Even Tatsuma knows what to do, are you all just sitting here? Get moving! Call for help if you need to, notify others if you need to."

At this moment, many ninjas in the camp gathered, and even some ninjas whose bandages had not yet been removed rushed over. Tatsuma quickly found the few ninjas who had stayed in the camp to guard and explained what had happened.

At first, they refused, but Tatsuma showed them the route map and mentioned that he knew sensory ninjutsu, which finally made them reluctantly agree.

Tatsuma and six combat ninjas left the camp at top speed, following the route marked on the map.

Of the six ninjas, three were Jonin and three were Special Jonin, which was quite a formidable fighting force; otherwise, Tsunade would not have left only a few of them to guard the camp.

Along the way, Tatsuma did not hold back his chakra, constantly sensing his surroundings and advancing at top speed. They rushed all the way until late at night, and had already penetrated deep into the heart of the Land of Rivers.

"Ninjas ahead! Be on guard!"

Chenma stopped on a large tree, wiping the sweat from his forehead. His naturally curly hair was soaked with sweat, and strands of it clung to his skin, making him very uncomfortable, but he couldn't care less about that at the moment.

Upon hearing Tatsuma's words, the six ninjas quickly went on alert. Tatsuma controlled his chakra, sensing the situation on the other side with even greater precision.

A short while later, he learned of the situation and said, "It's Hyuga ninjas, but someone is chasing them. Pick up the Hyuga ninjas and retreat immediately."

"Tatsuma, don't go over there."

At this moment, a Jonin spoke up, and Tatsuma nodded. He knew that his level would only be a hindrance if he went too far, so he had no intention of forcibly stepping forward.

Six ninjas left, and soon the sounds of battle broke out. The fire of fire-style techniques lit up the night sky. At this moment, a Byakugan ninja arrived carrying another Byakugan ninja on his back.

"Uncle Jie? Lord Du?!"

Upon seeing the two, Tatsuma's expression turned extremely grave. Hyuga Mina was alright, but Hyuga Miyabi's hands had been severed at the forearm level, and the bleeding wounds and exposed bones were causing him to weaken continuously.

"Tatsuma?!"

Hyuga was extremely shocked to see Tatsuma, but he couldn't care less at the moment. He put his older brother on Tatsuma's thin back and said, "Take my brother back. I will try to buy more time."

"..." Tatsuma looked at Hyuga Minamoto, then glanced at the battle in the distance, nodded, and said, "Take care!"
