Hostile to the Uchiha? Don't regret relocating your entire clan!

Since we're just idling around in the village anyway, going out for some activities is a good way to relax.

Seeing that Uchiha Yuzuru had agreed, Obito and the other two all smiled happily and pulled Uchiha Yuzuru toward the mission hall.

After saying goodbye to Mikoto Uchiha, Kushina Uzumaki, and Karura, Yuzuru Uchiha followed Obito Uchiha and the others to the mission hall.

The mission lobby was packed with people, all choosing their own missions.

Since the Hidden Cloud Village defeated the Allied Shinobi Forces, almost all employers have given priority to Hidden Cloud Village when hiring ninjas.

This has resulted in a situation where the supply of mercenary jobs in Kumogakure is far greater than the demand, so there is no need to worry about not being able to get any jobs.

Uchiha Yuzuru picked up a mission manual and began to slowly flip through it.

"Help the old lady find her cat..."

"Help feed the pigs..."

"The widow is afraid of thunder at night and hopes to have ninjas keep watch (Uchiha clan preferred)..."

What is this all about?

Uchiha Yuzuru simply skipped the beginning and flipped directly to the last few pages, where a mission gave him a jolt of energy.

"The Queen of Loulan died under mysterious circumstances, and the people of Loulan were captured and their whereabouts are unknown. We hope that a skilled ninja can investigate the truth (Loulan Kingdom location map)."

Memories of the Loulan Kingdom unconsciously surfaced in Uchiha Yuzuru's mind.

Loulan Kingdom is located within the Kingdom of Wind, surrounded by desert, and its land area is about the size of a small town.

The Loulan Kingdom had no ninjas, but it possessed a dragon vein.

In the original story, a rogue ninja from Sunagakure named "Centipede" triggered the seal while trying to seize the power of the Dragon Vein, and traveled to the past with Naruto Uzumaki and others.

In the past, Naruto Uzumaki encountered a team led by Minato Namikaze.

Based on Kakashi Hatake's performance at the time, the period should be on the eve of the Third Shinobi World War, before Sakumo Hatake's suicide.

It does indeed match the current time.

"Is it because the reputation of Kumogakure has far surpassed that of Konoha that the mission from Loulan Kingdom has appeared here?"

Uchiha Yuzuru muttered to himself, and a rough guess formed in his mind.

Seeing Yuzuru Uchiha lost in thought, Obito Uchiha curiously leaned closer and asked, "Brother Yuzuru, what's wrong?"

Uchiha Yuzuru snapped out of his daze and smiled, "I've found a suitable mission."

Judging from the original work, the power of the dragon vein is extremely strong, almost inexhaustible.

If he could seize the power of the dragon vein through this mission, it would be a considerable gain for him.

"Let me take a look."

Obito Uchiha took the mission manual from Yuzuru Uchiha, and Kakashi Hatake and Shisui Uchiha also came over.

Immediately afterwards, the three of them opened their eyes wide with excitement.

"It's an A-level mission!"

"Can...can we really do this?"

Even Kakashi Hatake was starting to lose confidence.

As genin, they are only able to carry out some D-rank or C-rank missions.

Even with Uchiha Yuzuru included, they thought they could only take on one B-rank mission at most.

But who knew that Yuzuru Uchiha would directly set his sights on an A-rank mission.

It's important to understand that A-rank missions are the ceiling most ninjas can reach. Many of them involve the strategic moves of villages and nations, and the outcome can even affect the balance of power in a region...

"Yuzuru-senpai, can we really do this?"

"Clan Chief Yuzuru, this is an A-rank mission!"

"Although I'm very confident in my abilities, isn't it a bit too much for Yuzuru-nii to accept an A-rank mission?"

"With our capabilities, can we really pass the mission assessment?"

Seeing the anxious looks on Kakashi Hatake and the other two, Yuzuru Uchiha said calmly, "Since you want to carry out a mission of a higher level, then let's just see it through to the end."

"As for mission evaluation..." Uchiha Yuzuru's tone was full of confidence, "With me here, there won't be any problems even if we take on an S-rank mission."

Chapter 85 Loulan

Seeing Uchiha Yuzuru's confident demeanor, Hatake Kakashi and the others finally realized what was happening.

The person leading them to accept the mission is none other than Uchiha Yuzuru, who defeated the Allied Shinobi Forces with a single blow and whose fame resounded throughout the ninja world!

With him leading the team, completing an S-rank mission would be a piece of cake, right?

After thinking it through, Obito Uchiha, Kakashi Hatake, and Shisui Uchiha all nodded vigorously: "Brother Yuzuru, we'll take this mission!"

"Alright, let's go." Uchiha Yuzuru chuckled and led the three little ones to the mission acceptance window.

Before long, they accepted the mission of "supporting Loulan".

After leaving the mission hall, Uchiha Yuzuru looked up at the sky and said, "Go back and prepare yourselves. We'll set off tomorrow morning."

By the time Uchiha Yuzuru appeared, Obito and the other two had been waiting for almost three hours.

They were too excited yesterday, so they didn't ask Uchiha Yuzuru about the specific meeting time, and thus arrived early, before dawn.

Unexpectedly, the wait lasted for three hours.

Obito Uchiha complained, "Brother Yuzuru, why are you so late?"

He rushed over without even having breakfast so he wouldn't be late.

Yuzuru Uchiha glanced at Obito Uchiha with some surprise: "I thought you would be late, so I wasn't in a hurry."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi Hatake and Shisui Uchiha were speechless.

Based on their understanding of Obito Uchiha, it's perfectly reasonable for Yuzuru Uchiha to think that way.

"Alright, it's getting late, let's hurry up and get going."

Seeing Uchiha Yuzuru leave, Uchiha Obito and the other two immediately followed.

"Let's take a rest first."

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Uchiha Yuzuru stopped.

Obito Uchiha immediately began to search the surrounding area, Kakashi Hatake was in charge of collecting wood, and Shisui Uchiha took the opportunity to set up traps.

Although ninjas travel very fast, the distance between the Land of Lightning and the Land of Wind is simply too far.

It took them half a month to reach the edge of the Wind Kingdom.

"Seriously, it hasn't been an easy journey."

After surveying the area, Obito Uchiha sat down next to Yuzuru Uchiha while complaining.

Since leaving the Land of Lightning, traveling has become difficult.

In most places, there isn't even a decent road; it's far inferior to the Land of Lightning.

Uchiha Shisui nodded and chimed in, "Brother Yuzuru, the people outside are living such miserable lives. Why don't we help them rebuild?"

Uchiha Yuzuru raised an eyebrow and said calmly, "Even if we wanted to help them, we might not be willing."

“That’s easy.” Uchiha Shisui grinned sheepishly. “Once we conquer them, we can help them improve their lives.”

Upon hearing Uchiha Shisui's answer, Uchiha Yuzuru couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

If you don't accept my goodwill, then I'll beat you until you do...

Yes, that's very Uchiha.

Just then, Kakashi Hatake piled up the collected wood and asked, "Yuzuru-senpai, shall we light a fire?"

With permission from Uchiha Yuzuru, Hatake Kakashi lit the fire.

Uchiha Yuzuru then took out four thick lamb legs from the Kamui dimension and said to Uchiha Obito and the others, "One for each of you."

Seeing this, Uchiha Shisui silently put down his mission log and said somewhat helplessly, "Clan Chief Yuzuru, is it really okay for us to start a fire so openly?"

"I feel like eating soldier's ration pills would be better."

For ninjas, concealing their tracks is of utmost importance when carrying out missions.

Lighting a fire in the dark is absolutely forbidden!

Uchiha Yuzuru nodded as well: "It's really not a good idea. Don't imitate it when you're on missions in the future."

"Of course, if you have the confidence to overcome everything, then you can be like me."

After Yuzuru Uchiha finished speaking, he took out some seasonings and sprinkled them on the roasted lamb leg.

Instantly, an enticing aroma filled the air.

It's not that we can't afford military rations, but that roasted lamb leg is more cost-effective.

Seeing that Uchiha Yuzuru, Uchiha Obito, and Hatake Kakashi were all eating with their mouths full of oil, Uchiha Shisui swallowed hard.

Never mind, let's eat!

With Uchiha Yuzuru leading the team, the main idea is to do whatever you want, however you please.

This gave Obito Uchiha and his group the illusion that they weren't on an A-rank mission, but rather on a vacation...

Another week passed, and the four members of the Uchiha Yuzuru group finally found the Loulan Kingdom in the desert.

Looking at the towering Loulan that seemed to reach straight into the clouds, Obito Uchiha and the others were all stunned, their mouths agape.

What peculiar architecture! Is this Loulan?

Even though they were far apart, they could feel a heart-pounding energy fluctuation.

"You guys stay close behind, we'll go in first and gather some intelligence."

Seeing Uchiha Yuzuru's serious expression, Hatake Kakashi and the others also unconsciously became serious.

This is an A-level mission; we absolutely cannot be careless in the slightest.

Led by Uchiha Yuzuru, the group easily infiltrated the interior of the Loulan Kingdom.

Towering towers stand tall, connected by countless pipes that form a network that extends in all directions, much like the blood vessels in a living organism.

There were hardly any people on the streets, and the entire Loulan looked like a dead city.

Obito Uchiha was a little confused: "Why is it so quiet here? That's strange..."

Kakashi Hatake and Shisui Uchiha gripped their short swords, intently guarding against any possible unexpected events.

After walking for a while towards the center of Loulan, Uchiha Yuzuru heard a mournful song.

He frowned and looked over; the sound was coming from an abandoned tower nearby.

"Let's go take a look."

Obito Uchiha was the first to rush forward, followed closely by Shisui Uchiha and Kakashi Hatake.

When they rushed into the abandoned tower, they found a long-haired woman sitting on the ruins singing.

Noticing their arrival, the woman turned around abruptly.

After glancing at it, he turned around and ran out through a passage.

"Wait a moment!"

Obito Uchiha wanted to give chase, but two puppets appeared in the passage and rushed towards him.

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

Obito Uchiha formed hand seals, and a massive fireball instantly engulfed the puppet, scattering its parts all over the ground.

"Hmph! Easily defeated."

Obito Uchiha gave a smug snort, but Kakashi Hatake and Shisui Uchiha, who were not far away, changed their expressions.

"Obito, watch out!"

Obito Uchiha turned around and saw that the scattered puppet parts had reassembled and were attacking him with sharp blades.

Uchiha Obito was so frightened that he took a few steps back and accidentally tripped and fell to the ground.
