Naruto: As a genin, I just want to live a normal life.

Page 355

Seeing the chaotic scene at the command camp, Sarutobi Shinnosuke immediately shouted, interrupting the noise.

He looked solemnly at Kakashi's summoning beast Pakkun and asked, "Are you sure it's a ninja from Kirigakure?"

Parker shook his head: "I didn't see it with my own eyes. But Kakashi did tell me that, and now he's gone after him alone."

"Can you track his direction?"

"command!"

"Enough!" Sarutobi Shinnosuke glared at the young ninja. "We are ninjas who have inherited the Will of Fire, and we are ninjas of Konoha, the strongest ninja village in the world. Are you really going to accept ninjas from other countries kidnapping a medical ninja right in front of us?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present fell silent.

"Commander Shinnosuke is right."

Nara Shikaku, the smartest player in the room, chose to speak:

"But we must be on guard, just as Commander Kim said."

"Then?" Commander Jin frowned.

Nara Shikaku: "Doesn't Roran have the Three Legendary Sannin? We can take this opportunity to say that we have ninjas in the Roran area, approaching Sunagakure's defenses, and see how Sunagakure reacts."

He looked at Shinnosuke: "Um, if Commander Shinnosuke trusts me, I can..."

"I believe you." Sarutobi Shinnosuke readily agreed and put on his battle suit: "I have always believed in you, in all of you, and in all my comrades who have helped me and in Konoha."

Even if that person is Shirahoshi.

......

Receiving the intelligence and assembling the team took a total of twenty minutes.

Make sure all matters are properly arranged.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke led an elite force, standing outside the camp, looking towards the Land of Water.

"set off!"

"We cannot let down any of our comrades who have contributed to the village!"

......

Chapter 217 Using Rin to Command Obito

The land of water.

A remote and unknown underground place.

In the damp and dark environment, a boy was undergoing rehabilitation training in a cave, muttering, "Rin, Kakashi, wait for me."

Next door, a high seat on the steps.

The aged Uchiha Madara sat atop it, his gaze fixed on the White Zetsu who had just emerged from the ground, disguised as a member of the Hidden Mist Anbu, and asked, "How did things go?"

White Zetsu smiled broadly: "It went very smoothly, Lord Madara. I believe that soon, that little girl will become the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails, just as we planned."

Madara Uchiha nodded slightly, then remembered something and asked, "What about Roran? Has that Shirahoshi genin who claims to be Zero, who is probably actually the Roran White Cross Dean, shown up yet?"

If there is any force that hinders the plan, it must be Loulan;

If there is one powerful figure who can hinder the plan, it must be Shirahoshi.

White Zetsu's expression was serious: "Confirming that White Star appeared in Loulan, and considering the genjutsu incident the other day, it's highly likely that it was the work of Uchiha Hikaru from Loulan. After all, the strength of the Sannin and Minato Namikaze is just so-so."

"Fortunately, his disappearance for three years not only gave me the opportunity to discover his identity but also the opportunity to train Obito." Madara Uchiha glanced at the next room: "Don't let him get hurt. Proceed according to plan."

"Yes!"

......

On the shore of the Land of Water, members of the Hidden Mist Anbu dragged an unconscious female ninja from Konoha through the jungle.

"Captain. Something seems off. Where are all the garrison ninjas who were supposed to be there to meet us?"

A member of the Hidden Mist Anbu noticed something was wrong. The plan was for Hidden Mist ninja to provide backup, but there were none.

A faint Sharingan appeared beneath the eyes of the Kirigakure captain, but no Anbu noticed it.

"The Mizukage has already told me from the shadows where to complete the Three-Tails ritual. We can just go there directly."

"I see! That makes sense. Too many people can cause problems."

Just then, a group of ninjas suddenly appeared in front of them, all wearing headbands of Hidden Mist Ninjas.

"You guys look a bit unfamiliar," a member of the ANBU ninja team said warily.

"Hello. I am a secret member of the Kirigakure Sealing Team. My name is Hozuki Masaya, and this is..." The leading male ninja introduced the other team members one by one, and finally nodded slightly to the ANBU captain.

The commander of the Dark Guard nodded in agreement.

"That's right. Lord Mizukage had them assist us in completing the sealing ritual."

"Let's go. Don't kill that little bug behind us, just try to hold it off and buy us some time."

This is our plan to destroy Konoha Village; he must live! Do you understand?!

"Yes!"×N

......

"Lin. Lin!"

Kakashi shouted as he walked through the jungle.

A short while later, he saw the Hidden Mist ninja he had just fought, along with two other ninjas, all waiting for him there.

"Slow, huh? Kakashi with the Sharingan from Konoha." The ANBU ninja, arms crossed and leaning against a tree trunk, saw Kakashi, stood up from the tree trunk, and grabbed the hilt of his sword: "Leave it to me. You'll see how I defeat this guy."

"Don't let your guard down, octopus."

"That's right. Do you know what will happen to you if you lose?"

An ANBU ninja codenamed Octopus approached Kakashi. Facing the panting Kakashi, the ANBU ninja did not hesitate at all, quickly rushing forward, drawing his sword hilt, and pointing it directly at Kakashi's forehead.

"Hey, hey. Octopus isn't going to disobey the captain's orders, is he?"

"I guess so. But I don't understand why the plan is to keep him alive. Killing him shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

Listening to the words of the two ANBU members, the White Zetsu hidden underground could only say that it was indeed a rebellious Kirigakure ninja who dared to disobey the orders of the captain and the Mizukage. It deserved to be killed by the Blood Mist.

Fortunately, Kakashi is not a weakling.

......

Zizizi!

"Ahhh!"

Kakashi, who had passed through, instantly transformed into lightning. The ninja codenamed Octopus was paralyzed and completely unable to move. In addition, a pair of hands pierced through the ground, grabbed his ankles, pulled him down quickly, and burst out of the shell in the blink of an eye. White Fang's short sword, mixed with lightning, slashed through the octopus's face.

Click!

Bloodstains covered the center of a middle-aged young man's face, with blood flowing freely.

Kakashi took a deep breath and gripped his white teeth tightly: "Rin... Where did Rin go?"

"Heh. You've got some skill; you managed to take down an octopus in an instant. No wonder you're Konoha's youngest Jonin..."

"No. The youngest should be that Uchiha Lightning Release ninja. But it seems like both of them can use Lightning Release."

The two members of the Hidden Mist ANBU showed no sadness at the octopus's death; instead, they continued to mock it.

Kakashi's face darkened: "So these are the ninjas from Kirigakure? These are your own comrades..."

An ANBU member interrupted, "Comrade? You may have misunderstood something."

He raised the drawn blade and pointed it at the dead octopus on the ground: "He did something he shouldn't have done, so he should bear the consequences."

Just then, a signal flare for retreat appeared above their heads.

boom!

The red fireworks revealed a mocking glint in their eyes beneath their masks. They exchanged a glance and then sheathed their blades.

The ANBU member who had just spoken suddenly said something very strange.

"I'm curious, if your companion threatened the village, would you still choose to save her?"

As he spoke, he and his companion raised their left hands and used the Water Instantaneous Body Technique together, turning into water droplets and disappearing from the area.

"What did he mean?" Kakashi couldn't understand, so he could only look up at the location of the signal flare and continue chasing after it.

......

Along the way, Kakashi encountered Kirigakure ANBU ninjas, but they only provided simple obstruction and retreated upon seeing the signal flare. Eventually, he arrived at a strange cave, where Rin Nohara's figure was prominently displayed on a high platform.

"Lin!"

Kakashi quickly traversed the steps to the high platform, where he nudged the dazed Nohara Rin.

"Kakashi..."

"It's me, it's me! Thank you, Lin!"

Overjoyed at his companion's rescue, he completely lost his composure, and all the unease he had felt earlier vanished.

Yes! It was definitely Obito protecting him! Absolutely!

Rin Nohara, who was about to be rescued and whose arm was grabbed by Kakashi, did not look too happy.

She felt as if there was something inside her...

"The little mouse has gotten in! Stop him!"

"Don't let him escape!"

Before Kakashi could carefully examine the sealing technique inscribed on the platform or check Rin Nohara's body, he heard the voices of Hidden Mist ninjas coming from all around him.

"Lin! We need to get out of here quickly!"

Despite her inner confusion and as she recalled what had just happened with Rin Nohara, she still nodded in agreement with Kakashi.

......

The ancient country of Loulan.
