Chapter 153: Aggressive
In the hazy night, Mizuki felt a figure approaching. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ The info direction is the way you came.
"It's so late......
The practice of chakra control and perception is boring, Mizuki has long experienced it. Especially when it comes to perceiving natural energy, it is even more necessary to practice in a good environment. It's not because you can't practice when you're together, it's because there's too much movement. For Hinata Ninji and Yamashiro Aoba, it is not difficult to perceive Mizuki's movements, and there are also parasites of Shino Oil, who are also extremely sensitive to Chakra's movements. Coming to this wilderness is first of all to set traps, and secondly, Mizuki is to seize all the time and practice perceiving natural energy as much as possible. In this kind of secluded environment in the wilderness, when no one disturbs him, the cultivation effect Mizuki feels really good.
Seeing someone coming, Mizuki also realized that it was not too early and it was time to go back. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Yamashiro Aoba to come out of the darkness.
"Why haven't you gone back for so long?"
"Sorry to worry you. Mizuki replied, "This place feels very comfortable, and I have been sitting for so long before I know it......"
"As the captain, you just left your subordinates and came here to admire the moon?" Yamashiro Aoba joked with a smile: "Even if you become a shinobi, you haven't changed much......"
"Isn't that bad?" Mizuki also knew that Yamashiro Aoba didn't blame himself, it was just a joke between acquaintances.
"It's okay. I know your style. Those two shinobi don't know, and they thought something happened to you, and they didn't have a good rest. β
"S-class mission, can you not be nervous?"
"It's like wearing a forehead guard and becoming a ninja for the first time, and I'm a little excited and uneasy. Yamashiro Aoba also walked over, sitting side by side with Mizuki on the trunk of the tree to admire the moon, "By the way, Mizuki, do you remember your first S-class mission?"
"It's been a bit long, I can't remember. β
"I don't remember either, so we're ninjas for the rest of our lives. I don't know if I can start and finish well......"
"I don't think you're usually like a person who thinks too much, and you think about this?"
"I didn't want to, but I've been thinking about it for a while. Yamashiro Aoba said calmly.
Indeed, too many people have died recently, both familiar and unfamiliar, who have lost their lives in the past month or so.
"I kind of understand, you're so sentimental today, it's just for those two to endure it, right? Are you worried that they're too nervous? Or can't you stand the pressure?"
"Yes, those two people are rare talents, the village has lost so much, it is time to replenish fresh blood. We can't let them die in vain in a place like this......"
"You, you still don't trust me as the new captain......" Mizuki said very generously.
"It's not that I can't believe it, but I think the village's decision is a bit too hasty. Yamashiro Aoba circled his head and said a little embarrassed.
"You're thinking too much, Aoba. In this case, Mizuki also had to reveal a little specific news to Yamashiro Aoba, so that he could rest assured, and it was not always a good thing for the biggest helper to be worried.
"To be honest, I personally requested the manpower arrangement this time. I made the suggestion of the specific list, and Tsunade-sama finally agreed......"
"It's you, how could it be?" I originally thought it was the specific arrangement of the five generations of Hokage, but I didn't expect it to be the result of Mizuki's strong advocacy.
"One thing you said is very right, Aoba, they are all rare talents, and they will support the backbone of the village in the future......" Mizuki did not answer directly, "However, you still greatly underestimated their strength, and now they are a rare helper." β
"Do you really think so?" said Yamashiro Aoba suspiciously.
"Of course, although it is not easy to find the upper ninja in the village now, but it is not easy to find a few middle ninjas with small combat power, but you can still make up a few, why do you think I put forward a request for the secondment of two lower ninjas, why did the village still agree? What they need is not encouragement and comfort, but our trust!"
"Hmm......" Yamashiro Aoba pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Well, you have a point, the flowers in the greenhouse can't grow into the pillars that support the leaves. Now is indeed a great opportunity to exercise. We're going to have to bother a little bit more, though......"
"Don't worry, why do you think the village promoted me to Shinobi?" Mizuki said confidently, "This time, they will be fine if they are careful......
A few shinobi will not be the target of the attack, on the contrary, Mizuki should be extra careful, he is likely to be regarded as a target, and he is far more dangerous than others.
"I have to believe you...... "Anyway, in the current situation, it is impossible to give up halfway, and the task must be carried out."
"Let's go back, it's not too early......" Mizuki looked at a few parasites flying not far away, and the feeling of being spied on twice not long ago. I knew that the oil girl Shino and Hinata Ningji were not at ease, so they came over to investigate.
"Hmm. Yamashiro Aoba followed Mizuki and began to walk back. "I feel like you've become a shinobi, and you're getting more and more able to talk ......"
"No, it's that you're too weak, and you never said anything about me. β
β¦β¦
Early the next morning, the whole team was still slowly moving along the planned route, and this action was simply outrageously slow for a team of ninjas, like a blatant demonstration against an enemy who was eyeing him in the shadows: "We are here, come here if you have the guts......
Such a scene,It's a very rare scene in ninja missions,For a profession developed by assassins and assassins and lurkers who act in the shadows,Stealth and fast maneuvering,Become a big label for ninjas,Although there is no lack of individual characteristics of ninjas really do not conform to the general mainstream ninja label,But the direction of ninja development has never changedγ Even because of the birth of Chakra, the role of ninja has been greatly improved, and it has gradually moved from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, and even after directly replacing the mainstream combat profession of samurai, its basic style has never changed.
"Mizuki, doesn't it matter?" Yamashiro Aoba was also worried as he looked at the mess in the team, "Are we going to do something?"
"No, I don't. Mizuki shook his head, "Let Shino's bugs keep a certain range of reconnaissance, and don't do anything else." β
In fact, Mizuki expected this situation. In essence, this operation is a game in which the three ninja villages and the "Akatsuki" organization compete with each other. And each side thinks that the other party is stupider than themselves, which is why this strange scene occurs.
"This strange situation caused by the error of unequal intelligence, then the only variable is actually in your own ......."
Mizuki, the only one who has an intelligence advantage, may be the existence that can really dominate the rhythm in this mission, especially when his own hard power rises to the point where he can participate in this level of competition, it is even more obvious.
Konoha Village thinks that he has Uchiha Itachi in the Uchiha, has information about Jiraiya, and has information about two combat contacts. Iwakuin Village thinks that the enemy is stupid to launch a rescue for Deidara, so he wants to do what he wants. Shayin Village is even more stupid to take advantage of the fire.
The "Xiao" organization is even more confident in its own intelligence capabilities, with pervasive and penetrating absolutes, as well as countless peripheral organizations and internal responses that have developed over the years. And it is likely that the Red Sand Scorpion will be involved in it, and Yura, who will be mixed into the action team. None of these people think that they will fall into the enemy's trap, but will only use the information at hand to arrange their own actions.
The three major ninja villages and the "Akatsuki" organization all believe that the consequences of their intelligence superiority have been unmistakably manifested. Then what was expected to be a very likely encounter will turn into an accident that will definitely happen. A vicious battle is inevitable.
Although he was a little puzzled by Mizuki's arrangement, Yamashiro Aoba still arranged two shinobi tasks according to Mizuki's requirements.
"Is the situation already serious?Mizuki?" asked Yamashiro Aoba in a low voice.
"Be prepared. Mizuki nodded quietly, "I don't know when I'll be back, but I will definitely come, and it won't be too far away." β
According to this situation, as long as the other party finds out the specific information here, he will definitely take action. I just don't know how many people will be there and who will come.
β¦β¦
In this grinding atmosphere, the team walked for two days, but the distance traveled was not much more than the distance traveled by the team led by Hinata Hinata last time. Mizuki was even in the mood to see the place that had been razed to the ground by the Earthburst Celestial Star at that time. The soil underneath the ground is quite soft, and some fragments of puppet-like objects can be clearly seen in it. Even if a layer of grass and trees has grown on the ground in the past few days, it has not been completely covered.
"This is where you fought at that time? This kind of trace is too scary, how did you escape at that time?" Such a scene made Yamashiro Aoba surprised Hinata Hinata and his party who escaped without losing one person.
"It's a long story, but it's enough to know that we might meet someone of this level. β
"That's really life-threatening. Yamashiro Aoba smiled bitterly: According to what you said, such a person may not be one, how can we win them?"
"What are you anxious about? This time, we have allies. And you have to have faith in me. I'm about to get a promotion and a salary increase and then marry a winner, and I will never die in such a hellish place. β
"Mizuki, you don't have to show off your fiancΓ©e all the time, we all know that"
"I'm reminding you. Mizuki glanced at Yamashiro Aoba and said, "This time I'll go back and hurry up for a treat, I've even contacted the guests here." Also, you're going to start preparing your gifts. β
Taking advantage of the leisurely time, Mizuki and Yamashiro Aoba are talking and laughing. Suddenly, from a distance, I saw Maki with Yura, and Chitu also came over with Black Earth, as if there was something to discuss.
When a few people walked in, Mizuki clearly looked at a few people with an uncertain look on their faces.
"Several, do you have anything to do with me?" Mizuki asked first.
"Regarding this operation, we want to quit the joint team and return to Shayin Village first. Markey said something serious that surprised Mizuki.
"What's going on?" Mizuki asked.
"We don't think it's very far from the village, and if we go all out, we can get home in less than a day, so we don't need to move so slowly. Yura Shangshinobu on the side replied.
"This is currently the consensus of the sand shinobi. Markey nodded in acknowledgment.
"You guys were going to be added in at the beginning, but now you don't give any explanation, just quit? Are all the people in Shayin Village so rude?"
"Things change, we don't need to be so rigid, and ninjas aren't something static. What's more, isn't it also a good thing for you, you can get to Yanyin Village quickly, and you don't have to take a detour. β
Mizuki took a deep look at Yura, who seemed to be serious, and was furious in his heart, it was very likely that this guy passed on some false information that made Maki make an extremely wrong judgment.
Then, Mizuki said in a positive voice: "Maki Kamishinobi, I don't know what the reason is for your village to suddenly want to quit, and I don't want to know, these are all inconsequential things. I just want to ask. Has the Sand Hidden Village found something more valuable than being an ally of Konoha?"
Mizuki's words were not a negotiation tone at all, but a naked threat. The situation is pressing, and Mizuki can't figure out what the Red Sand Scorpion ordered Yura to do in it. In such cases, exhortation and persuasion are less likely to be effective than direct threats. And Mizuki's confidence in doing this lies in the fact that compared to Konoha needing the ally of Sand Hidden Village to take a breath for a while, Sand Hidden Village needs the tiger skin of Konoha allies to bluff, and really make evil to Konoha, the first to attack Sand Hidden Village is definitely Iwain Village, which is eyeing the tiger on the side.
"Mizuki Kamishinobu, what do you mean by that. Listening to Mizuki's words, Markey asked with a frown.
"Literally, Maki Kaminobu, please think carefully about what I said. β
"I want to confirm again, what you just said can represent Konoha and the fifth Hokage?"
"On this mission, presumably the Sand Hidden Village will not be ignorant of the inside story, and at this time, for whatever reason, I think Konoha will only make the same voice as me. "Mizuki is extremely glad that Konoha Village is also the nominal overlord of the ninja world, and he is also a ninja who speaks quite weightily, and is no longer a dispensable character in the ninja, in this case, what he said on behalf of Konoha, even if there is a deviation in the end, as long as the general direction is good, the village will definitely endorse what he says.
In that case, we'll think about it again. After speaking, Ma Ji led Yura away with a more gloomy face.
Seeing that Maki was gone, Mizuki finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was just a kind word on face, but in fact it was a concession. If the three shinobi of Shayin Village, especially the strongest Maki, leave, it will be a big loss.
"In this way, let's go first, Mizuki Kamishinobi, or Konoha's words will work. "The words of the stout terracotta are very polite.
Watching the two teams leave one after another, the mountain castle Aoba on the side breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I almost collapsed just now, Mizuki, you are so bold." β
"It's unreasonable to talk to these sand ninjas who are full of hearts, so I can only do this. Mizuki continued, "Pay attention to that Yura, and if he has any special actions, tell me immediately." β
