Konoha: Who's the good guy?

For a time traveler, being familiar with the plot is the biggest advantage.

Furthermore, if you can remember some details in the plot, you can easily obtain things that ordinary people cannot achieve even after decades of hard work!

Nineteen years have passed since Yamanaka Kei transmigrated to the Naruto world.

Although at the beginning of his transmigration, he recorded the plot he could recall in the form of pictures and pinyin.

Even today, I still occasionally take it out and look at it.

Even back then, the amount of information he could remember was very limited.

It focuses more on the general direction of the plot, rather than on the many details of a single event.

For example, he knows.

Danzo Shimura once killed Yahiko because he discovered the threat posed by the Akatsuki organization, which directly led to Nagato's corruption.

As for the specifics of how he was tricked, and whether anyone else was involved, he had completely forgotten because it had been so long since he watched the show.

Looks like I'm in for a busy day.

A hint of a smile played on Yamanaka's lips.

The blue tag I got this time, "King of the Ninja World," is a bit of a joke.

But for him, it was even more important than the previous purple entries.

If used properly, the benefits it brings are absolutely immeasurable.

"Teacher Jing, the person you asked for is here!"

Kurenai Yuhi stood in front of the trap pit, tiptoeing and raising her hand to shout into the distance.

The girl's clear voice pulled Shan Zhongjing back from his beautiful fantasy.

He jumped off the roof.

Yamanaka arrived at the huge trap pit and had the client sign the mission authorization form to confirm it.

He then called to the three little ones, who had already retrieved the ninja tools they had just used, such as kunai, wire, and shuriken, and set off on their return journey.

Four figures swiftly traversed the dense forest, heading straight for Konoha along the shortest path.

Taking advantage of a break in the journey.

Yamanaka Keiya also told the three about the mistakes and shortcomings that had occurred during the mission.

First and foremost was the biggest mistake in this mission.

After meeting the person who commissioned the mission, the three of them did not even bother to ask the person who commissioned them for relevant information.

He hurriedly had the person in charge lead him to the target of the mission.

Secondly, upon first seeing the target, they failed to observe it carefully, leading to an underestimation of the target's defensive capabilities.

The wild boar had many shallow scratches on its skin.

Judging from the marks, the damage was likely caused by villagers using machetes and bows and arrows.

Adult villagers, having worked in the fields year-round, possess considerable strength in the force of their machetes and arrows.

This allows for a rough assessment of the target's defensive capabilities, enabling the development of a more suitable battle plan.

This way, the situation wouldn't happen where the three men spent a long time stabbing the wild boar with kunai, not only failing to kill it but also enraging it and almost getting injured.

Finally, ninjas did not only have the means to complete their missions through direct confrontation.

Genma Shiranui's ninja tool pouch at his waist contained more than a dozen powerful hallucinogenic smoke bombs, while Kurenai Yuhi's small medical kit at her lower back also contained powerful anesthetics.

Even on the barren mountains outside Zhongji Village, there are some deadly poisonous plants and insects.

They are not ordinary villagers who have relied on the experience of their ancestors for generations and do not even know how to read.

Catch two poisonous insects and pick two poisonous plants.

Simply mix it according to the recipe taught in the ninja school textbook.

If used properly, it can take down not only a wild boar, but even an elephant.

Kurenai Yuhi, Might Guy, and Genma Shiranui were all embarrassed by what Kei Yamanaka said.

The excitement of successfully completing the mission earlier had completely dissipated.

Seeing the three little ones' dejected expressions, Shan Zhongjing realized that teaching children shouldn't involve only criticism without praise.

He then changed the subject, mentioning the strengths of the individuals he had just discussed.

"It is commendable that you all have excellent teamwork and have always trusted your teammates. Even though it was your first time working together on a task, you made full use of each person's strengths."

"They also have a good ability to adapt to changing circumstances. After realizing that the original plan was not feasible, they knew to use the dried-up reservoir to quickly create a deep pit trap."

"Finally, the fact that they knew how to protect the client's assets and avoid further losses during the mission is also commendable."

Overall, I'm... well, fairly satisfied with your performance.

With a smile, Yamanaka Kei delivered the final verdict.

"Yay!"

The three high-fived in celebration, and at the same time, they secretly resolved to perform even better in the next mission.

They made a fuss for a while.

The thoughtful Kurenai Yuhi steered the conversation back to the mission.

"Teacher Jing, if you were carrying out this mission back in your genin days, what would you do?"

"Of course... one ninjutsu and it was done for."

"What the hell? Genma's fire jutsu just now only produced the smell of roasted pig hair! How could a genin's ninjutsu possibly kill such a big wild boar in an instant?"

"I belong to the mountain tribe. Controlling a wild boar to jump into a river and drown, or to make it crash into a mountain and commit suicide, is not difficult for me."

"That ninjutsu is so cunning!"

"Hahaha~"

The four of them laughed and joked all the way until night fell and it was pitch black before they finally made it back to Konoha.

After having dinner at the newly opened Ichiraku Ramen restaurant and setting a meeting time for the next day, the four parted ways and went their separate ways home.

We walked all the way to the ancestral home of a tribe in the mountains.

Seeing the lights on in his house from afar, a question mark slowly appeared above his head.

With one hand forming a hand seal, the Yamanaka clan's sensory ninjutsu is unleashed.

Feeling the vast, sun-like chakra within the room, and the terrifying aura that could not be concealed beneath that chakra.

He instantly identified the person in the room.

That unique chakra.

Who else could it be but Kushina Uzumaki, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki known as the Red Hot Chili Pepper?

Clang~ Click~

A clattering sound came from inside the room.

Sensing that Kushina Uzumaki was being spied on by sensory ninjutsu, she didn't even put on her shoes before she opened the door and jumped onto the wall like a gust of wind.

My gaze instantly locked onto the mountain view at the end of the street.

"Jing~ I've finally~ finally waited for you!"

Her words, filled with both excitement and resentment, were like those of a tragic heroine who had finally met the hero after going through countless hardships.

The mountain scenery gave me a real shiver.

I almost couldn't resist turning around and running away!

Oh my god!

Little Chili actually speaks in this tone!

A rustling sound came from the houses on both sides of the street.

Clearly, the tribespeople, bored out of their minds late at night, heard the commotion and were secretly preparing to gossip about it.

Yamanaka Kei covered his face with one hand and quickly used the Instantaneous Movement Technique.

He pulled Kushina directly into the house.

The moment the door closed, the five-directional anti-sensory barrier in the room was instantly activated.

He was certain that if he was even slightly slow, the clan would be buzzing with stories about him and the vortex orphan by tomorrow.

"Huh? Huh? Huh!"

Kushina was staggered as she was pulled into the house.

Watching the mountain scenery, he smoothly activated the barrier.

In just three words, the tone shifted from bewilderment to doubt, and then from doubt to astonishment.

She instinctively put her hands in front of her chest, looking scared.

However, there was a hint of excitement and anticipation in his eyes.

"Holy shit..."

Upon seeing this action, Shan Zhongjing felt a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat, unable to go up or down.
