"Such a grand display, it doesn't seem like an attempt to infiltrate Konoha. Is it more of a probing attack?"

"It could also be a feint, with the real attack taking place elsewhere."

Kazan squatted in front of the wasteland, deep in thought.

Well, I can't tell anything at all. He's not cut out for this kind of reconnaissance work compared to boxing.

"We can't rule out any possibility, but we still need to find him. Their mission is most likely to be to scout our defenses or even..."

Find our resource resupply route.

Konoha won't be able to sleep peacefully until these rats are caught.

"Set up camp and begin full-scale tracking tomorrow."

"Yes!"

The troops, numbering several hundred, immediately sprang into action, setting up temporary camps to rest amidst the ruins.

Jiraiya summoned Kazan and ninjas from the Nara, Hyuga, and Inuzuka clans for a small meeting.

"What do you think this group of troops will target next? Will they continue their attacks?"

"If they continue their attacks, their intentions are nothing more than two things: first, to test Konoha; second, to launch a feint attack to draw our troops' attention before launching a general offensive from elsewhere."

"I think the second possibility is the least likely."

"Explain your reasons."

"We are Konoha!"

Good reason.

Konoha's overall strength ranks first among the five great ninja villages, and indeed no other ninja village would want to directly offend Konoha at this time.

"That leaves only two possibilities: first, they're gathering intelligence, trying to find out the size of our troops and their strongholds."

"Second, they can infiltrate our rear, find our supply routes, and once the war breaks out in full force, the enemy can cut off our supplies and cause us huge losses."

"No matter which one it is, we must find this unit in time."

The group quickly reached a consensus.

Kazan remained silent throughout, listening quietly.

He was actually much older than ten, but war was something he was experiencing for the first time.

"Inuzuka, Hinata, Aburame, I'm giving you twenty people to track them down overnight, leaving markers along the way. We'll catch up with you as quickly as possible tomorrow morning."

"Remember, the number of enemy troops is unknown, so do not engage them in battle rashly."

Jiraiya gave the order, instructing the ninja clans skilled in tracking to make their move first.

"Yes!"

Several people accepted the order, left the "meeting room," gathered some people, and began the pursuit.

"Kazan, you'll be coming with me tomorrow, so don't get lost."

"understood!"

Chapter 67 No need for that trouble, let me do it.

"Bang bang bang~"

As night fell, Kazan, as always, created shadow clones to seize every second for cultivation.

This world is about to go out of control; every bit of strength you have increases your ability to protect yourself.

For more than half a month, Yin Shang Yu Mie and Zhang Xian Shu Kazan still hadn't even scratched the surface.

The training of medical ninjutsu is much more difficult than that of ninjutsu.

Kazan learns from each failure and slowly moves forward.

His main body involves wearing weights and engaging in basic physical training.

There were many ninjas in the camp, but no one laughed at him.

Those ninjas who had witnessed Kazan's punch that defeated the Jinchuriki of Kumogakure dared not point fingers at him.

"You're as hardworking as ever, Kazan."

While I was doing push-ups, a familiar voice rang in my ears.

Kazan turned his head and discovered that the person who had come was Uchiha Jō.

"It's you? What are you doing here? Aren't you graduating from ninja academy and being divided into classes soon?"

"Hmph, don't think you can keep leaving me behind forever."

Uchiha are cool and have the unique temperament of the Uchiha clan.

"This time, I volunteered to join the advance team after asking my father for permission. Don't look at me like that; I've awakened my Sharingan."

As he spoke, Uchiha Jō's eyes darted around, and a black tomoe appeared in his scarlet eyes.

"Congratulations! By the way, how did you awaken your Sharingan?"

Aside from a few geniuses, most Uchiha awakened their Sharingan due to emotional stimulation.

"This is none of your business."

Uchiha Jō would never tell Kazan that after watching his battle with the two Yugitos, he was so stimulated upon returning home that he awakened his Sharingan.

"I am not the same person I was before, Kazan!"

"Oh? Then shall we have a fight?"

this.....

"Now is not the time. Let the war end, and I will definitely challenge you after the war is over!"

What a joke! Just because he has opened his eyes doesn't mean he can beat up a perfect Jinchuriki.

Fighting Kazan now is just asking for trouble.

However, Uchiha Jō was very confident that once he opened his Sharingan, evolving it into the three-tomoe Sharingan would be a natural progression.

By then, he will be qualified to challenge Kazan.

Uchiha Jō calmly took a few steps back.

"So you came here just to show off your Sharingan?"

"Of course not, I just..."

"Just what?"

"It's none of your business."

You contacted me yourself, and now you say it has nothing to do with me?

He's mentally ill!

Uchiha Jō hesitated, but ultimately didn't say anything.

He just wasn't used to the atmosphere on the front lines; it was so serious that he felt like he could hardly breathe.

It was rare to run into someone I knew, so I just wanted to come over and chat with Kazan.

But he couldn't bring himself to say it. Kazan was his nemesis, a man he had to defeat. How could he become friends with him?

Impossible!

But if he didn't speak up, Kazan would ignore him. Bored, he could only read books.

Uchiha Jō found a spot to peruse his clan's history, hoping to find a way to further evolve the Sharingan.

"Let's go, you naturally evil Uchiha brat. We still have to chase down enemy forces tomorrow, so don't stay out too late."

"Why do you call us inherently evil?"

"Nothing, I just thought it was fun."

"Kazan!!!"

He was furious. What was so evil about the Uchiha clan?

Strangely enough, when Kazan shouted that, he didn't actually get angry; he thought Kazan was joking.

In contrast, it was the cold indifference of the other villagers that truly stung his heart.

"What an incomprehensible guy." Uchiha Jō watched Kazan leave, then got up and went to rest.

...........

Silent all night.

the next day.

The advance force of Konoha assembled and prepared to depart.

"The border is not like a village. Did you sleep well last night?"

"I'm not that delicate."

"That's good, let's go."

At Jiraiya's command, the ninja force of several hundred men split into three groups and began the pursuit from different directions.

The ninjas from the Inuzuka, Aburame, and Hyuga clans set off last night, leaving markers along the way.

They just need to follow the markers.

After pursuing them for most of the day, Jiraiya ordered the main force to stop.

The reconnaissance team's markings began to disappear from here, and there was no trace of the reconnaissance team.

This is not a good omen.

The next second, Kazan's Observation Haki detected that several miles away, a large number of chakra were approaching.

He turned and reminded him, "You lewd immortal!"

Jiraiya turned around and shouted, "Everyone, prepare for battle!"
