Chapter Eighty-Three: News from Jiraiya
Kakashi likes to be nosy, but also likes to go to dangerous places, and has become the teacher of two plug-in ninjas, you know, the teacher who becomes a strong teacher in the ninja world is probably not a good end.
What's even more powerful is that this guy also dares to act as a pawn to deal with the boss before the protagonist appears, which is very powerful.
But isn't it because he knows in his heart that he should be reckless when he should be reckless, and when he should be reckless?
After Kakashi Hachiki finished introducing the rules, he disappeared in front of them, and the induction drill of the dark department was not as simple as he said.
First of all, there needs to be a dark elite arranged in advance, and the traces of right and wrong camouflage, if the newcomer makes a mistake in judgment, he may be misled in the wrong direction.
The number of these traces is pitifully small, and the water stop and the weasel need to judge based on the traces in order to find the true end. The only thing that works in their favor is that most of the traces of the snow arrangement are more obvious.
"Looks like we're lucky."
After Uchiha Shisui entered the initial ground, he saw a complex footprint on the snow, and he walked in cautiously: "Some of these footprints were left on purpose, and the severity is almost the same, it seems that the seniors are not very friendly!" ”
"Is it difficult?" The ferret watched as the footprints spread in the distance, in at least four directions, but all of them led to the forest.
Uchiha Shisui shook his head: "The disguise in an emergency cannot be perfect. ”
After a general glance at the spreading footprints, Zhishui pointed to the shortest route to the forest in front of them: "If you go back to the same place, the heel will obviously be heavier than the toe mark, and this one is the heaviest." ”
The Uchiha is significantly more experienced.
After entering the forest, the air conditioning has been cut off by the trees, and the ground in the forest is relatively little snow, and the comprehensive assessment of the dark part has just begun at this time.
"Actually, Kakashi-senpai is still very friendly, I thought that those psychic beasts that could assist in tracking were not allowed to be used." The Uchiha chuckled and landed on the ground, biting his fingers.
"Ninja Psychic Technique!"
A flock of ravens hovered around him, scattered under his command. Zhishui beckoned to the weasel and said, "Let's rest for a while!" Wait for them to come back..."
Itachi looked enviously at the crows that had obediently gone away, and nodded vigorously.
No matter how envious he was, he couldn't have expected himself to have this group of crows that could explore... Even he won't even have a psychic beast in the future.
It's not easy to raise a younger brother, and if you want to sign a contract with a psychic beast, I'm afraid you don't think that the Uchiha clan is too strong, and you want Kitahara to use the tailed beast jade to help inspect the work?
With the help of the crows who stopped the water, they quickly found a few traces, and after discussing and judging, the two continued to follow the traces that they thought were correct.
It wasn't until after nightfall that their pace of exploration had to stop.
Uchiha Shisui took out a bag of dry food and handed it to his friend: "Let's eat something first, I can ask the psychic beast to come over to keep vigil at night." ”
"Stop the water, I remember that the psychic beast has a summoning time, right?"
Zhishui took out the bird food from his bag, fed his crows and said: "These crows are all raised by me, and they all inhabit near the Nanhe River, so there are not so many restrictions. ”
“……”
Uchiha Itachi looked at Kitahara, who suddenly poked his head out, and when he and Jiraiya were outside practicing, they always kept vigil with their teachers in turn.
They're all crows, so the gap is too big!
"Gah?"
Kitahara looked at his cub suspiciously, what kind of eyes did the cub have, and what did he eat at night? That's right, Uchiha Itachi also has to help Kitahara, a picky eater, prepare dinner.
"Kitahara... Do you want to eat these? ”
Uchiha Shisui pointed to the bird food in his hand, and under the gaze of Kitahara Death, he slowly withdrew his hand: "Why don't you go to the river to dig ice and see if you can catch a few fish?" ”
What a difficult uncle!
However, the grilled fish is really fragrant.
After dinner, Kitahara slipped into Itachi's backpack and was about to sleep, when a shrill crow from a distant night patrol caught its attention.
Someone!
"Let's take a look!"
Zhishui quickly extinguished the flames and chased in the direction of his psychic beast.
The Uchiha Itachi grabbed Kitahara in his arms, refusing to let it slip into his backpack.
"Gah..."
"Kitahara, you don't always go to bed after eating! Get a little exercise! ”
This venue is used in the dark as an entry assessment for newcomers, and generally no one approaches, but there are traces of people in the venue, which is a special matter.
Exercise missions are usually ordered to be temporarily stopped, and the next step can be determined after the dark examiner enters the room to judge.
"Stop the water, is it the enemy?"
"No, it's a ninja sent by the border stronghold of Tanokuni to deliver the message!" After Uchiha Shisui found someone, he was helping him press his wound: "He has information about the traitorous ninja Orochimaru..."
“… I'm sorry, but this may be entrusted to you. ”
The ninja in the border stronghold obviously couldn't hold on, his body was full of wounds, and there was a long wound on his chest, obviously his life was not long.
He struggled to pull out a scroll from his ninja bag: "I can't hold it anymore... It's information about Orochimaru, so please hurry up and hand it over to the three generations! ”
“… Be! ”
Uchiha Shisui looked at his resoluteness and had to put away the scroll in his hand, he knew that this ninja would not even be able to support Konoha Hospital.
Uchiha Itachi stepped forward and said, "I remember that Jiraiya-sensei went after Orochimaru... Is something wrong? ”
"Jiraiya-sama has been defeated and is now temporarily healing in our stronghold."
"How is that possible?"
Even Kitahara couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard the news, according to the comparison of strength, although Jiraiya may be frustrated, but if he has the immortal mode by his side, the possibility of defeat in the face of Orochimaru is very small, right?
Although Orochimaru is still in the prime of life and his strength is very strong, in the face of the immortal mode, unless Orochimaru has the reincarnation of the filthy earth...
"Actually, this is what Jiraiya-sama himself admitted, and we are here to ask for support... Orochimaru is currently wreaking havoc on the border and has already destroyed two strongholds! ”
"This..."
Several people glanced at each other, and it was the first time that this kind of thing had happened when the reninja attacked Konoha! Shouldn't you be a traitor and live honestly somewhere to avoid reckoning?
"According to our information, Orochimaru should be looking for something..."The ninja who sent the message finally couldn't hold it anymore, and he had just almost returned to tell all the information.
Orochimaru is looking for something?
Kitahara pondered what Orochimaru wanted... That's a lot!
A strange blood enchantment...
Young, healthy and energetic body...
But something that could make him take the initiative to attack soon after fleeing from Konoha should be very important to him, even if he didn't care about the threat of Jiraiya.
Shisui closed the eyes of the border ninja and said softly, "It seems that the exercise mission can only be temporarily terminated..."
