Naruto: After hiding for a long time, he became the leader of the three ninjas

Seeing the crow, Kagura did not have any doubts, but skillfully took a piece of paper from its feet.

This is a crow that Konoha cultivated for communication purposes.

Compared with the immature long-distance electronic communication system, this kind of crow appears to be more reliable on the battlefield.

Just after taking off the note and reading it for a while, Kagura couldn't help but frown.

The message was sent to him by Tsunade.

It was a time of war, so it was obviously impossible for Tsunade to send a message to Kagura on the front line just for the sake of romance.

But what the note said was not about official business.

In fact, Tsunade told Kagura that her younger brother had recently received a mission and came to the front line here.

As the sister who loves Nawaki the most, she hopes that if Kagura meets Nawaki, she can provide some help.

Although doing so is not in line with the village rules, for Kagura's mission this time, it is indeed possible to take care of one or two things.

In fact, when Kagura saw that Rope Tree had also come to the battlefield, he had already decided to temporarily give up what he was doing and go look for Rope Tree.

Although because of my existence, the world line of this world seems to have been completely disrupted.

But if we look at the original plot, Sheng Shu's death happened just after he graduated.

Given the playful nature of fate, Kagura's intuition told him that Nawaki was likely to be in danger this time.

After figuring this out, he quickly finished the dry food in his hand and walked towards the Konoha headquarters.

On the other side, Rope Tree was still in a state of curious excitement.

Tsunade's younger brother is extremely similar to the protagonist Naruto in some ways.

They are also full of vitality and hope for the future.

Moreover, they all set the goal of becoming Hokage since childhood.

If we have to say the difference between the two, it might be that Shengshu, who has had family since childhood, is more polite and sensible.

Others may feel fear and other emotions about going to the front line this time.

But for Sheng Shu, he was full of expectations.

As a boy with the blood of the Senju clan, although he did not have the surname of the Senju clan, he always regarded Konoha as his most precious thing.

Fortunately, he could contribute to the village and he didn't mind being one of the first volunteers.

It was because she understood her brother's character that when Tsunade learned that Nawaki was going to the front line, she did not say anything to stop him.

Only after careful consideration did he write a letter to his lover Kagura, asking Kagura to take care of her.

In fact, as newly graduated Genin, Nawaki and the others still need at least a certain amount of training before they can go to the front line.

But firstly, most of the Jonin in the village have been sent out, and their generation of Genin does not have any extra Jonin to lead and teach the team.

On the other hand, even Konoha felt great pressure from fighting on two fronts.

So with no other options, this group of new Genin were sent here.

Of course, the top leaders did not expect these Genin who had just graduated from the Ninja Academy to have any combat effectiveness.

After they arrived at the front line, most of the tasks assigned to them were search and patrol tasks, and they did not need to engage in direct combat with the enemy.

I don’t know if it was fate, but not long after Nawaki arrived at the base camp, he was assigned to work under Nara Sora.

Although Nara Sora did nothing wrong in the previous incident that Kagura was involved in, he did not make any contributions overall.

And thanks to Kagura's distraction, the confrontation on the front battlefield has become significantly easier in recent weeks.

The Konoha top brass could clearly feel that the other two parties began to deliberately avoid Konoha's team.

Under such circumstances, and considering that Nara Sora was a relatively stable person, he was transferred to the reconnaissance team to be responsible for coordinating these newly arrived Genin.

Today is the first day that Rope Tree and his group of Genin report for duty.

Looking at the expressions of the boys and girls below who were either expectant or fearful, Nara Sora sighed silently in his heart.

If possible, he would like to refuse this position.

Even if they were Genin, there was a huge difference.

Compared to the Genin who have a certain amount of experience, these freshmen in front of them can be said to not even have the most basic fighting ability.

Apart from anything else, most of these people probably have never even killed anyone.

If they really encounter the enemy, I'm afraid they would be lucky if they could try not to become a burden, let alone fight against it.

However, he could only think about these thoughts silently in his mind.

He knew very well that these tasks always needed someone to do them.

Thinking of this, he gathered his thoughts and began to tell the new recruits in front of him about the next task and things that needed attention.

However, Nara Sora never expected that some enemy leaders he had never thought of were setting a trap around his team...

Chapter 32 Trap

“This is the area we are going to explore today.

Remember, if you find any clues, you must report them to me immediately and do not track them down on your own.

In addition, we also need to defend this side..."

At this time, Nara Sora was carefully explaining to his team their mission for today.

Seeing the boys and girls below nodding seriously, his uneasiness was slightly relieved.

After all, he was a Genin who lived in a war era and studied in the Ninja Academy.

Although they are still young, they obviously know that they need to be extra careful on the battlefield in order to survive safely.

After a few minutes, Nara Sora finally explained today's mission clearly to them.

In fact, their mission is very simple, which is to explore and patrol in two specific areas.

Moreover, these two areas basically belong to the rear and generally do not pose much danger.

However, even in the rear, patrols are very necessary.

You have to know that in this ninja world, let alone the Jonin.

Even if there were dozens of Chunins, if they were allowed to sneak into the rear, they would likely cause huge damage.

Therefore, these newly promoted Genin who can only serve as cannon fodder on the front line are obviously the best candidates for patrols.

After briefly giving instructions again, Nara Sora led everyone to the mission area.

Since it is in the rear, it is naturally not very far from the base camp.

Just two hours later, they arrived at the mission site.

This time he led a team of six people. After arriving at the destination, he divided the six people into two groups and began to explore according to the method he taught yesterday.

Although the probability of encountering the enemy here is not high, obviously nothing is impossible during wartime.

So even if they were just exploring, they tried to stay hidden and quietly began to patrol the area in front of them.

However, only half an hour later, the team that Sheng Shu was in found him and reported the abnormal situation.

The first discoverer, Nawaki, excitedly led Nara Sora to an open space.

But when he saw the dense footprints, Nara Sora couldn't help but gasp.

this...

Even without counting them carefully, he could at least tell at a glance that a team of hundreds of people had passed by here.

There are hundreds of people. If we follow the organization, there will be at least one Jonin.

Why would such a team suddenly appear in their rear?

After squatting down, picking up some soil and observing it carefully, he was able to determine that those people had not left long ago, and at most the traces were left behind last night.

Looking at those dense footprints, he frowned and thought silently in his heart.

What exactly is the purpose of these people?

In the ninja wars, there is basically no so-called tactic of bypassing the main force and invading other areas.

Whether it is a roundabout tactic or a sneak attack on the rear, the ultimate goal is basically to destroy the main force.

After all, ninjas are highly mobile and individually strong.

If they are discovered after going deep into the enemy's territory, the ninjas of the main force will be able to respond quickly and surround and annihilate the infiltrating force.

The team of hundreds of people in front of them would not need so many people if they were to sweep the villages on the border.

However, if the purpose is to launch a surprise attack on a big city or Konoha Village, this number seems far from enough.

Unless there are a huge number of jonin in it.

After a brief thought, Nara Sora chose not to speculate on the enemy's thoughts for the time being.

No matter what, the most important thing now is to report to the base camp.

After a little thought, he said decisively:

"We will split into two groups. One group will immediately return to the base camp and inform the higher-ups over there of the situation here.

Another team followed me and continued to explore the enemy's route along these traces."

Having said that, he paused and looked at his subordinates.

When he saw Sheng Shu's eager eyes, he said:

"Well, Rope Tree, your group should continue investigating with me."

After the tasks were assigned, the other three immediately set off back to the base camp as instructed.

Looking at the remaining three people, Nara Sora's face became serious and he said solemnly:

"Follow me closely, don't be careless.

Remember, our mission is only to find out the whereabouts of these people, and never expose ourselves.

Do you understand? "
