Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 6 The Perfect Match Between Uchiha and Crows

Survival is the most important thing!

As the saying goes, "A young man with ten thousand helmets will not be sent to the Hidden Cave to deliver his head."

Besides, how can you gain reputation if you don't survive?

Moreover, with the concept of survival in mind, they can act more boldly.

For example, it allows for large-scale relocation.

Since Konoha didn't clearly explain the mission they were given, and they would be transferred after completion, Konoha couldn't say anything.

Do you expect me to tell you that you have to stay there and die?

"Kakashi and the others are going to the Kannabi Bridge anyway, so it's only natural that they'd bump into them and then receive Minato's protection, right?"

The mystery of the bridge in Kannabi was something that Hagoromo hadn't really figured out in her previous life.

As ninjas, and especially as members of Iwagakure who are skilled in Earth Release, couldn't they rebuild the bridge using Earth Release after it was destroyed?

But now he understands: it's not that they can't, but that they've lost their will to succeed.

The death of the Third Raikage made the Hidden Cloud Village eye them with hostility.

Konoha was still fighting them head-on, but at this critical moment they were ambushed from behind. Who would still have the will to fight back?

If there was one time, then there must have been two, especially since Minato Namikaze instantly killed fifty ninjas on the front lines.

With such multiple blows, the morale of Iwagakure is low and their organization is collapsing. What's the point of fighting now?

Since Konoha has already enhanced its physical perception with iron fists, it has achieved a spiritual sublimation through physical means.

They couldn't possibly be like turtles without shells—they stubbornly held on, and then surrendered, and the war ended.

"It'll be over soon, we just need to get through this period."

After several days, the three of them, including Yuzhi, finally entered the designated area within the allotted time.

And under the cover of the timely attack by the frontline ninjas, they also quietly entered the area controlled by Iwagakure.

Looking at the lush forest before her, Yuzhi couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"However, even if we want to go find Kakashi and the others, we have to wait a while before doing so."

Although Yuzhi wanted to increase his reputation, he wasn't crazy yet; he wouldn't forget that Uchiha Madara was hiding in the Land of Grass.

Moreover, his immediate priority is to solve the most important task at hand—attracting the attention of Iwagakure.

This kind of task is a classic example of someone who talks a good game about principles, but when it comes to actually doing it, they're in tears.

In particular, they did not have a detailed map of Iwagakure's defenses, so they had to do many things on their own.

For a moment, Yuzhi felt that the Konoha leadership issued the mission with the mentality of "Anyway, I won't be the one charging into battle, so I'll just brag a bit to quell my inner turmoil."

"Haori, something's up."

Just as he was pondering, Qingye suddenly spoke up in a low voice.

After her initial excitement, Aoba felt somewhat awkward seeing Haori these past few days.

Although he didn't say it aloud, he kept in mind that he thought Yuri was bragging.

But to his surprise, just a few minutes later, he was slapped in the face by the boomerang.

However, this made him trust Yuzhi even more, so he would not object to doing many troublesome things as long as Yuzhi asked him to.

For example, he could control the crows to conduct reconnaissance while ensuring their safety.

"There's a patrol team ahead, four people, very close to us."

Are there enemies?

Upon hearing this, Akai immediately became excited.

"Haori, if we make a big fuss, will we be able to complete our mission more easily?"

"Shut up, you idiot, follow Yuzhi's orders!"

Before Yuri could speak, Aoba couldn't hold back any longer.

"Haori is our captain now, so don't cause any trouble."

Although Yuri is also a Chunin, he was appointed captain by Minato Namikaze, and both Guy and Aoba agreed to it.

Especially after the previous analysis, Aoba had even more trust in Haori.

"No, this time, let's not make too much of a fuss."

After thinking for a moment, he finally spoke.

"Kai, although doing this is in line with our mission objectives, don't forget that we still have more to do."

We need to draw attention and cause more damage so that the enemy will be more alert and more people will come this way.

This will be very beneficial to us.

There were also excuses used to transfer the funds.

"Is that so?"

Akai glanced apologetically at Qingye. He knew, of course, that he sometimes had problems and that being scolded was normal.

He quickly looked at the haori and then asked curiously.

"So what should we do?"

"We can't let this patrol team get away, but we shouldn't make too much of a commotion."

Yuzhi spoke directly, his gaze fixed on Kai.

"We need to capture them alive so we can get more intelligence."

So, Kai, you need to stay calm and not cause any more accidents like before.

"Yes."

Akai nodded somewhat embarrassedly.

"Aoba, we'll need to put in extra effort this time, just like we did in the Land of Whirlpools. Can you hold on?"

Yuzhi nodded. Although he still didn't quite believe Kai, he also looked at Aoba.

"no problem."

Aoba nodded directly, his face showing a hint of eagerness.

"Then, let's take action."

Upon seeing this, Yuzhi immediately gave the order, and the three of them instantly disappeared from the spot, each finding a hiding place.

Hidden in a patch of grass, Yuzhi immediately activated his Sharingan, and two black tomoe slowly rotated in his scarlet eyes.

Before long, four Iwa ninjas walked towards them, and their conversation could be clearly heard.

"Captain, why can't we go to the front lines? Why do we have to patrol the rear?"

A young-looking Iwa ninja said resentfully, clearly dissatisfied with the current situation.

"I know you want to avenge your brother, but being in the rear is still serving the war effort."

The slightly older Iwa ninja offered words of comfort, but his tone was stern.

"And don't forget how Konoha defeated Kirigakure. Do you want something like that to happen here?"

Yuzhi listened quietly to their words, and at that moment he was certain who the captain of this team was.

huh, huh, huh-

The sound of air being torn apart rang out immediately after the four Iwa ninjas reached the appropriate position, and several kunai quickly swept towards them.

"Enemy attack!"

Although the incident happened suddenly, the four Iwa ninjas reacted quickly.

After all, this is a battlefield. Even though they are in the rear, their conversation shows that they are on guard against Konoha.

The Iwa ninja captain was a man with extensive combat experience. After quickly instructing his team members, he immediately drew a long sword and blocked all the incoming kunai.

But the moment their attention was drawn to the kunai, Yamashiro Aoba made his move.

"Ninja Art: Scattering Thousand Crows Technique!"

In an instant, as the smoke appeared, countless crows densely appeared all around them.

The crows blocked their view and hindered their movements.

"This is."

The Iwa ninja captain was also stunned for a moment, but when he heard the screams coming from beside him, his face immediately turned ugly.

"Oh no!"

He swung his knife fiercely, trying to scare away the crows, but at that very moment, the crows scattered quickly.

A boy suddenly appeared in front of him. The boy's eyes were bloodshot. With just a slight turn, he dodged his ninja sword.

"Konoha, Uchiha."

Captain Iwagakure instantly guessed his identity, but the next moment, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
