Escape From Konoha

Vol 5 Chapter 22: confluence

Since the Land of Waves is on the other side of the Land of Fire, when they arrived at the coastal port of the Land of Fire, the seventh team that escorted Dazna back to the Land of Waves hired a ship at the port of the Land of Fire to go to the Land of Waves.

At the port, Kakashi and the others saw a huge bridge construction site not far away, and a magnificent bridge was about to extend to the land of waves.

"That is the sea-crossing bridge between the Land of Waves and the Land of Fire, but the construction has not been completed yet. It may take a whole year until the bridge construction is completed."

Before the boat was far away from the port, Dazna pointed to the construction site and said.

"It's really spectacular, but the investment alone is an astronomical sum."

Sasuke looked at the construction site from a distance. Judging from the scale of the cross-sea bridge, it is definitely one of the top gigantic projects in the ninja world.

Sasuke didn't know very well about the work of building the bridge, but he also knew that the amount of money invested in a cross-sea bridge of this scale would be a very exaggerated figure.

Even the most powerful ninja in the ninja world may find it difficult to earn money to this extent after working for dozens of lifetimes.

"No way, this is a very necessary project for the navigation between the two countries and for the commercial trade that needs to be carried out in the future."

Dazna took a sip of his wine and said.

Although the Land of Waves is a small island-shaped country, it is not useless in many fields.

For example, in order to invest in the Kingdom of Waves in the early stage, the Kingdom of Ghosts gave the Kingdom of Waves a lot of technical support. These technologies are exactly what the Fire Nation urgently needs.

The era of ninja dominance, with the rise of the kingdom of ghosts, has gradually weakened its influence, and the science-based industry is gradually becoming popular in the ninja world.

The accumulation of industrial heritage has also become a necessary field for assessing whether a country is strong.

Those big countries are also very greedy for the industrial technology of the Kingdom of Ghosts. Thanks to this, the Kingdom of Waves and the Kingdom of Fire have a common "topic" in this respect.

Otherwise, if it is only to limit the activities of the outpost of the Kingdom of Fire in the Kingdom of Ghosts, the Kingdom of Fire may not be willing to cooperate with the Kingdom of Waves to build this huge cross-sea bridge.

During such chats, Kakashi and the others took a boat and slowly left the port of the Land of Fire, heading for the Land of Waves.

Although the Land of Waves is located on the other side of the Sea of ​​Fire, the distance between the coasts of the two countries is not very far.

The ship drifted on the sea for half a day, and Kakashi and others sitting on the ship could see the island where the wave country is located from the ship.

Even though it was almost noon, there was still fog in the waters of the land of waves, causing the surrounding islands to be shrouded in milk-like mist.

The outline of the island in the mist is also hazy and unrecognizable.

But entering the mist, the field of vision was not hindered much, and the ship began to move towards the port of the Kingdom of Waves.

"Okay... a lot of boats!"

Unlike the port of the Land of Fire when we came here, the port of the Land of Waves is full of ships. Moreover, the area covered by the port is also very large, and you can also see huge ships moored not far away.

Those ships are all made of alloy armor without exception, just by looking at it at first glance, it is known that it is many times stronger than ordinary steel.

On these ships, there are many artillery pieces for long-range shooting and anti-aircraft.

The dark muzzle is as terrifying and ferocious as an abyss.

Naruto looked at those pitch-black cannon muzzles, as if feeling that they would point at him in the next moment, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

Although these ships are moored in a relatively open sea area and are a little far away from these civilian ships, Naruto feels that once those long-range guns are in operation, no matter how far apart they are, they can accurately hit their positions.

On the deck of the ship, there are still many ninjas wearing ninja foreheads, meticulously inspecting the surrounding movements.

The straight flagpole was erected, and the flag printed with aster flowers was waving in the wind.

"Who are they?"

Naruto shuddered.

For some reason, those ninjas wearing forehead protectors that were not inferior to Konoha Ninja gave him a very dangerous feeling.

Everyone made him feel invincible.

"Judging from the mark on the forehead and the aster pattern on the flag, these people should be ninjas from the kingdom of ghosts."

The aster flower is the national flower of the kingdom of ghosts, and the 'hereditary' mark used by the witches of the kingdom of ghosts in the past.

After the evolution of the times, it has gradually become a badge for the kingdom of ghosts to show its identity to the outside world.

Although the time for the rise of the Ghost Country is not very long compared to the traditional five major countries, as a newcomer among the big countries, Sakura still has some understanding of this country.

"The country of ghosts? It sounds a bit spooky."

Naruto folded his hands on his chest. Since he was a child, he was afraid of some unknown things, such as "ghosts" and "monsters".

And the word ghost always reminded him of these existences that frightened him very much.

"I remember Sakura, you said that the kingdom of ghosts is the sixth largest country, right?"

Naruto remembered that when he came here, Sakura gave him some popular science on the way.

"Yes what's the matter?"

"I was just thinking, Konoha belongs to the country of fire, so the leader of the village is called Hokage. The leaders of ninjas in other countries are also named after their own country. Then, the ninja boss of the country of ghosts is the so-called 'Ghosting'?"

Naruto's whimsical idea made everyone look at him speechlessly.

"What's wrong? Am I wrong?"

Naruto looked at the crowd suspiciously.

Kakashi sighed, it seems that it's not just basic physical skills, but some common-sense issues, he still needs to popularize them for Naruto.

He stroked Naruto's head and said: "Naruto, although the country of ghosts is the sixth largest country, it is different from the traditional five major countries. There is no ninja village organization in this country, but the military. The military's recruitment criteria are not just Ninjas, trained samurai and ordinary people can also join. The leader of the military, who holds the position of Minister of Military Affairs in the country of ghosts, is in charge of a country's military affairs. And because the military system is different from Ninja Village, So the ninjas in this country don't need to rely on mission commissions to earn money."

"I see."

Although he still didn't understand, Naruto still pretended to understand and nodded.

If you don't rely on completing tasks to make money, how can you support yourself? Work like a normal person?

Naruto's heart was full of question marks.

"Having said that, why did the ninjas from the Kingdom of Ghosts appear in the Kingdom of Waves? Besides, they are directly stationed in the Kingdom of Waves, right?"

Sasuke looked at Dazna.

Could it be that what Kakashi concealed has something to do with the kingdom of ghosts?

Sasuke frowned slightly.

Although he doesn't know how to deal with the country's major affairs, the army of the Kingdom of Ghosts is stationed in the waters of the Kingdom of Waves. As a neighboring country, the Kingdom of Fire, doesn't he have any ideas?

The army of the ghost country is so close to the fire country, Konoha should arrange measures in advance.

Dazna said, "Because we had some cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Ghosts in the past, but after the collapse, it became like this."

"The situation in this country is complicated enough."

Sasuke's eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Okay, the military discipline of the ghost country is notoriously strict. As long as you don't provoke them for no reason, you will be fine. Now I will take you to my house to rest for a while. Starting tomorrow, the bridge construction work will be thorough. Get busy."

Darzner said.

"Then follow what Mr. Dazner said, take a short break in the afternoon and evening."

Kakashi nodded in agreement with Dazna's thoughts.

"What, it's rare to come out, of course you have to appreciate the exotic scenery."

Naruto said carelessly.

Sasuke and Sakura's faces were also quite moved, and they agreed with Naruto's idea.

Kakashi looked at the three helplessly and scratched his head.

"Well, anyway, you have a rest today, you three can do whatever you want. But the expenses incurred for shopping, you pay out of your own pocket, and I won't reimburse you for it."

He had a big meal on the road before, and he hasn't recovered his blood yet.

When returning to Konoha later, the three of Naruto must continue to work hard to do more D-level tasks.

Otherwise, he might have to pay a lot of money for it.

Newcomers, you should exercise yourself more.

"Tch, Kakashi-sensei is a cheapskate!"

Naruto curled his lips in displeasure, making Kakashi's idea of ​​reimbursement immediately extinguished.

When they got to the shore, Naruto left the team and walked towards the nearby town, followed by Sasuke and Sakura, separated from Kakashi and Datsuna.

"Is it really okay to let the three of them leave like this?"

Dazner asked.

"It's okay. I've already told them the location. It's really boring to travel these few days. It's good to let them relax. I still want to take a nap here."

Kakashi replied.

Datsuna nodded, and led Kakashi back towards his home.

In the dark room—

"The provocative plan seems to have failed. The people from the Kingdom of Ghosts did not exchange fire with the Lei Guangtuan. Konoha also remained motionless, and instead became wary of us."

It was a woman who spoke, judging from her young voice, she would not be very old, in her twenties.

"There is no way. The strength of these three forces, even the weakest Lei Guang group, cannot be underestimated. Once there is a firefight, it will not be a simple fight. So until the end, it is difficult for them to directly clash."

"Personating the name of Ziyue people has also been questioned. Lei Guangtuan bites this side very tightly. If this continues, I am afraid that the people of Lei Guangtuan will find out in advance before the final plan."

The rest of the people also began to communicate, feeling that this matter was tricky.

"Expecting the Leiguang Group and Konoha to attract firepower for us, this plan can be abolished in advance. It is really impossible to move the position now, and finally use my strength to attack."

A woman's voice sounded.

The others were about to speak when suddenly the door of the room was kicked open.

"who!?"

The expressions of everyone in the dark room changed drastically.

Turn to look at the door.

"Who are you…"

Seeing the face of the person who came, it was a companion of them who went out to collect information.

But the other party looked very strange at the moment, with empty eyes and expressionless face.

On his body, people also deliberately used a knife blade to draw many scars.

The moment he shook his body and kicked open the door, he immediately ran towards them.

Noticing the abnormality of this companion, as if the enemy's illusion, resulting in empty eyes and no emotion on the face, everyone couldn't help but change their expressions, and temporarily retreated to the corner of the room.

Unexpectedly, strange blood bubbles suddenly popped out from the wound deliberately cut by the blade on this companion's body.

Not only that, his body began to twist irregularly, as if there were some creatures in his body that were constantly swimming there.

Everyone looked at the companion's abnormal state with surprise on their faces, and didn't know how to stop it.

At this moment, the leading woman realized something, her eyes widened, full of disbelief and shock.

"This is... blood dragon eye!?"

Without thinking too much, I yelled directly at the rest of the people:

"Back! Don't come near him!"

But it was too late.

The body of the companion in the center of the room swelled up like a balloon in an instant, and the skin and clothes all over the body began to rupture rapidly because they could not bear the pressure brought by the inflation.

There was a loud bang.

Not only the house, but the land outside the house was flattened and completely destroyed by the explosion, revealing a shocking pothole.

The woman and the others stood on the edge of the pothole in a state of embarrassment, coughing violently, and staring straight ahead.

A large amount of blood seeped out from the ground, turning the ground into a crimson red.

The hot air and **** smell blowing towards the face were very pungent, and it was difficult to breathe.

The petite girl walked on the **** ground, but the soles of her shoes were surprisingly not stained with a trace of blood.

In this **** field, there is a terrifying chakra.

Afterwards, the girl stopped her progress and looked at the ninjas who were wearing masks to cover up her real appearance. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, showing a very cold smile in the eyes of the woman and others.

The blood emerging from the ground began to violently churn like boiling water, and a ferocious giant red dragon rose from behind the girl, pointing at the woman and the others with boundless murderous aura like sharp blades.

"Finally found you, little mice in the dark!"

"So, with your height and appearance, you must be the leader of the Thunder Light Squad. But I didn't expect that you would be from the Blood Pond family. I thought that after being expelled from the Land of Thunder, people from your family would It's already extinct."

The woman in the mask smiled coldly.

Qian Nao didn't respond, and the blood dragon behind him roared towards the woman.

The word 'height' mentioned by the other party caused the murderous aura in her heart to rise violently, completely enraged her successfully.

The eyes under the woman's mask looked indifferently at the huge blood dragon rushing towards her.

The blood dragon made by Xueji Jijie is many steps stronger than the water dragon bullet.

Ordinary ninjas would only be brutally swallowed by blood dragons in the face of this kind of power, but she was not among them.

She rushed up to face the blood dragon, and her fist directly bumped against the blood dragon's head.

The incomparably powerful Chakra erupted from her body, fighting against the blood dragon in the air.

Two powerful chakras collided, making the fragile earth unbearable, and villages began to shatter.

The surrounding trees were cleared away, revealing a huge vacuum.

Qian Nai narrowed her eyes, and her petite body rushed towards the woman quickly. The red blood pupils looked at the woman's eyes, exuding a coquettish and strange color.

The woman's body shook, and after a moment's delay, she immediately gave Chino a hard look.

A huge black shadow suddenly extended from behind her, descending from the sky.

Chino had a surprised expression on her face.

Boom!

The whole person was shot down to the ground by the black shadow, and a lot of blood gushed out from the ground, dragging her body and offsetting the impact on her body.

When Qian Nai stood up from the **** water, the figures of the woman and others disappeared in front of him, and the blood dragon was also severely injured, and fell to the ground dying.

"Chino!"

Not far away, several figures galloped towards Qian Nao's side.

The leader is Qian Nai's deputy, Feng Xin, who is also the deputy leader of the Lei Guang Group.

He saw a mess on the field, and it was obvious that Qian Nao had just experienced a short but fierce battle with someone.

Because the terrifying chakra breath is still lingering in the air, it has not completely dissipated.

"Are you OK?"

"Ah, nothing, just a small injury."

Chino waved her hand, looked in the direction the woman and the others left, and frowned.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. These people are not ordinary ninjas. I also have a guess about their identities. Let's talk about them when we go back."

Feng Xin nodded, quickly thought of something and said:

"By the way, starting tomorrow, we will take turns guarding the bridge with Konoha's ninjas, and we can free up some more people then."

"Have they arrived yet?"

Chino was surprised.

"Yes, just arrived. The leader is Hatake Kakashi."

Feng Xin looked serious.

Qian Nai glanced at Feng Xin, shook his head and said, "The higher-ups told us not to worry about him, just do our own thing."

Although I don't know why, this is indeed an order sent from above.

Since the above has said so, she doesn't want to conflict with such a troublesome ninja, and it's best for both parties to live in peace.

After the three Naruto had a general taste of the scenery of foreign towns in the afternoon, they followed the location given by Dazna at the beginning, and came to Dazna's house to meet Kakashi.

Here, they were warmly received by Dazna's daughter Tsunami, enjoyed a big meal in the evening, and rested at Dazna's house for a night with satisfaction.

Ever since he was attacked by wandering warriors on the way here, the road has been calm since then, even in the land of waves. So on the first night in the land of waves, the three of Naruto slept very peacefully and soundly.

But this kind of comfortable time is always short. In the early morning of the next day, Kakashi woke him up early to start his morning run, and then he had breakfast at Dazna's house.

After taking care of everything, under the leadership of Dazna, the seventh squad began to rush towards the bridge construction site along the coast of the country of Na.

Like the bridge construction site along the coast of the Land of Fire, the bridge construction site facilities in the Land of Waves are also very large.

Because it is necessary to build an unprecedented bridge across the sea, both the number of workers and the building materials used to build the bridge are very large.

"This is Miss Qian Nao from the Lei Guang Group."

"This is Mr. Kakashi from Konoha."

Arriving at the construction site on the bridge, Dazna introduced Kakashi, the captain of the seventh squad, and Chino, the leader of the Lightning Squad.

"Hello."

Kakashi nodded to Chino, and extended his hand friendly.

Chino also raised her head and looked at Kakashi, her eyes inadvertently glanced at the White Fang dagger behind Kakashi, and then smiled lightly: "Hello, Konoha's second generation White Fang, Hatake Kakashi Cassie, even in the underground black market, I can often hear your name."

"Where, our Anbu also collected a lot of information about the Lightning Group. The Lightning Group led by Ms. Qian Nai is also very popular in the underground market."

Chino grinned at Kakashi's flattery, but didn't care.

"Who are these guys?"

Naruto looked at Chino with a puzzled expression, and the ninjas of the Lightning Corps behind her.

These people exude a serious and cold aura all over their bodies, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling.

Sasuke and Sakura also looked at Kakashi inquiringly.

Kakashi said: "These people are the bounty hunter team from the underground black market—the Lightning Group. Although the responsibilities are different, starting today, we need to cooperate with the Lightning Group to protect the smooth construction of the bridge together starting today. But it's different. What's more, the Lei Guang Group is responsible for solving ninja matters, and we are responsible for handling some miscellaneous matters, just to share the pressure of the Lei Guang Group."

Underground black market? Bounty Hunter?

Although they only saw it in books, Sasuke and Sakura suddenly looked at Chino and the others with a kind of deep guard.

Only Naruto was still shaking his head, dazedly not knowing what happened.

For a ninja like him who lives in a peaceful environment, it is difficult to understand what the underground black market and bounty hunters represent.

"Don't worry, little Sasuke, we all received the money from the Peasants and Industry Corps. It is also the meaning of your Hokage to cooperate with you on this mission. After all, our Leiguang Corps' reputation in the underground black market is well-known. good."

Chino boasted of herself there.

Compared with the other members of the Lei Guang Group who always look dull and serious, Qian Nao, as the leader, has a very lively personality, is not withdrawn, and does not like to be taciturn.

"you know me?"

Sasuke looked at Chino in astonishment.

"Of course, our clan has a lot to do with your Uchiha clan. Besides, as the descendant of the Konoha Uchiha clan, there are many big figures in the underground black market, and they all covet your blood succession limit boundary. So go out in the future When you do, be careful."

Chino looked at Sasuke with a smile.

Because the Uchiha clan in the ghost country is not easy to mess with, those who covet Sharingan can only focus on a weak person who has lost the protection of the family.

"Thank you for your advice."

Sasuke said with a cold face.

"You're welcome, little Sasuke. I'm looking forward to how far your Sharingan can grow."

Chino said in a mature tone.

Her old-fashioned attitude made Naruto dissatisfied.

"It's impolite to add the word 'little' in front of other people's names. Calling someone little Sasuke, don't you look like a little girl yourself? And you're also a dwarf."

As soon as Naruto said this, the atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.

little girl... shorty...

These words are absolutely taboo when used on Chino.

Although it is a bit impolite to say so, Chino just looks petite and young, not really young.

Naruto's words spoke to the root of the pain in her heart with incomparable precision.

Therefore, the eyes she looked at Naruto were full of coldness, and her gaze pierced Naruto's body like a knife, making Naruto restless, as if his consciousness was about to leave his body.

Snapped!

Just when the atmosphere became tense, Kakashi slapped Naruto on the head hard, making Naruto recover from his daze, and looked at Kakashi in a daze, not knowing what happened.

"Okay, it's almost time, let's start patrolling."

Kakashi didn't care about the coldness emanating from Chino, and said with a haha.

"Okay~www.readwn.com~ I'll give Mr. Kakashi a face this time."

When Chino was about to leave, she gave Naruto a vicious look, as if saying something like 'I remember you, I'll make you look better next time'.

Naruto shrank his neck in fear.

Although I didn't know what happened, but the moment my eyes met Chino's eyes, my body didn't feel like my own, and my consciousness was blank.

Sasuke watched Chino's leaving back, a look of doubt and seriousness flashed in his eyes.

"Kakashi, Naruto just now..."

"Well, I got hit by the other party's visual illusion. Next time, remember not to look directly into her eyes, or you will suffer a lot."

Kakashi confirmed Sasuke's guess, Yunyun said.
