Chapter 428: Let's Go to the Land of Waves!
After Dazna gave the seventh class a dismount, he was startled by Sasuke, who was eager to protect him. This fateful "C-class" mission was given full authority to the seventh squad led by Kakashi. Then, at the urging of Dazna, who was busy returning to China as soon as possible to repair the bridge, after counting his bags, everyone embarked on a journey to the country of waves.
"Well, Mr. Dazner......?"
Of course, compared to the fact that with the help of the identities of "Ha Feng Mian Ma" and "Uchiha Charasuke", they went out to perform tasks and experience, so that they were already strange to the two of them when they left the village. And when it comes to history, there is no less Xianglian who wandered with his mother in his childhood. Among the people in the seventh class, the person who was excited and nervous about this trip from the bottom of his heart was Sakura-chan, who was born in an ordinary person and left the village for the first time. And not long after everyone embarked on the journey, it seemed that they couldn't stand the quiet atmosphere of the crowd, just burying their heads in the road, and there was no trace of the intention to talk, so that Sakura, who was still a child's heart, couldn't help but ask out loud, breaking the silence.
"You're from...... Of the country of waves, right? β
"Huh? Of course, I'm one of the most famous bridge builders in the country of waves, Lord Dazner! β
And just after Sakura's words, I don't know if I couldn't stand the too quiet atmosphere either, or because I wanted to take the opportunity to vent the uneasiness and emotions in my heart a little, so Dazner almost didn't think about it, so he responded to the boast without thinking. Then, out of the corner of his eye, he looked at Kakashi and Sasuke, who were silent, to confirm that the two of them had noticed something unusual. While raising his eyebrows slightly, he responded in confusion.
"What's wrong? Any questions? β
"Huh? No, no, no, nothing ......."
Fortunately, Sakura, who has a child's heart, didn't notice anything unusual from Dazner's words that were obviously hiding something. So much so that he waved his hand again and again, and turned his head to the side with a natural expression, and followed Dazna's answer and asked Kakashi.
"That...... Kakashi-sensei, are there ninjas in the country of waves? β
"Well, it's a pity that there are no ninjas in the country of waves."
Under Sakura's questioning, Kakashi, as an instructor, didn't hide anything from this information, even if it wasn't a secret, and it could even be said to be in the realm of common sense. Instead, just like in the original book, it was like opening a conversation box, explaining to Sakura in detail why there are no ninjas in the country of waves, and the distribution of the five ninja villages in the ninja world today, and the meaning of the five shadows under the title.
"Of course, although that is said, but ......"
If it's compared to Naruto's previous life, it's converted to each other. Then, owning a ninja village is equivalent to a nuclear weapon for a country, and it has a powerful military force that can deter Xiaoxiao. In addition, in the case of equal strength, it is possible to maintain the delicate balance between the countries in which they live.
At the same time, the relationship between the ninja village and the country to which it belongs is, from a standpoint, completely equal. There is no situation where one party must be at the disposal of the other. As a result, a small country like the country of waves, which is not easy to be invaded and coveted by other countries due to its geographical location, has no need to support the ninja village.
Of course, it is precisely because of each other's positions that they are in a state of equal equilibrium. Although the three generations of Hokage were persuaded by Naruto to completely uproot the elder group with the strong side of Thunderball, this was supposed to be an organization that was supposed to limit the Hokage's power. Although the Daimyo of the Fire Nation was quite troubled and annoyed, after so many years, he still acted like a nobody, and there was not the slightest sign of retaliation.
After all, when the three generations of Hokage uprooted the elders, they listed all kinds of real and reliable crimes and ironclad evidence. As a result, what the three generations of Hokage did was just cleaning up the portal. So much so that the Fire Country, which is an "outsider", is not good for the elders in this unrighteous situation, so it has to silently suffer this dumb loss. And in the face of the fact that the Konoha Ninja Village is growing day by day, he can only be happy about the growth of his military power. But in this military force, he could not occupy the dominant power of words, and he felt a headache, and continued to maintain a mutually beneficial relationship in this complex thoughts of pain and happiness.
"Well, all in all, you don't have to be too nervous, Sakura...... After all, if it's just a C-rank mission, you'll encounter some thieves at most, but an event such as an enemy ninja attack is impossible. β
After explaining, Kakashi took advantage of Sakura's provocation and turned his head to look at Dazna, whose face was becoming more and more unnatural. Then pretending not to mention it, he bent his eyes and smiled, and continued in a warm voice word by word.
"You say yes, right? Mr. Dazner......
ββ¦β¦β
And in the face of this difficult question, whether it is answered or not, it will inevitably be more or less exposed. Dazna, who was sleek, naturally pretended to be old and deaf, as if he hadn't heard Kakashi's inquiry, and didn't say a word.
"Huh? This is ......."
At the same time, since embarking on the journey, Naruto's attention, which had been keeping his head down just in case, was immersed in the formulation of various countermeasures, and he was instantly attracted by a pool of stagnant water in his eyes. Then the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and while returning all the attention of his contemplation to reality, he continued to move forward as usual, and muttered eagerly.
"Oh, is it finally going to begin......
As described in the original book, in these days, under the good weather of clear skies, it is impossible for the ground, which has a strong ability to absorb water, to appear out of thin air like now. So much so that Naruto didn't even need to exert his senses, he could easily guess that this was just an inferior disguise created by the enemy ninja who coveted Dazna's life.
It's just that unlike in the original book, when Kakashi pretended to be defeated and killed, to test the on-the-spot reflexes of the seventh class and forced Dazna to tell the truth about the difficulty of the mission, it was ...... I already know Dazna's troubles, and the goal of this trip is to come to Naruto who will not cut off the white, but I don't want any extraneous changes. So much so that from the moment he noticed that something was wrong, he and Sasuke looked at each other quietly, and they made preparations in tacit understanding.
"Truly, sure enough, I didn't notice it in the slightest......"
"Moreover, it is foolish to let the target who should be protected go to the back of the line...... Looks like it's an inexperienced novice squad. β
"Either way, it's a great opportunity for us...... Come on, partner. β
"Ah, no problem......"
At the moment when Naruto and his party passed through the pond of water. With a twist and wriggling of the water surface, like a slime transforming, from this seemingly inconspicuous stagnant water, two fierce and vicious ninjas of the Fog Hidden Village appeared. Immediately, he flew without hesitation, and waved the special blade in his hand, and suddenly attacked Dazna, who was unguarded and walked at the end of the line!
"Now...... That's itββ! β
However, these two ninjas of the Fog Hidden Village, who thought they were perfectly disguised, had a good abacus. And with such a tactic, he has indeed accomplished the feat of skipping the level of killing...... But there is no doubt that this time, they actually hit the iron plate!
"Sakura-chan, Mr. Dazner, get down! Wind Escape: Big Breakthrough! β
"Fire Escape: Hao Fireball Technique!"
Almost at the moment when the body of the fog hidden ninja had just launched a surprise attack. Naruto's calm and calm voice spread abruptly. Immediately, Sakura and Dazna were unconscious, because of Naruto's words of warning, and subconsciously bent over, and then crouched down with his head in his hands. A fireball filled with terrifying heat suddenly invaded the two fog ninjas who had no time to stop dodging from the front of the team!
"What? Is it seen through?! How can this be...... Uhββ!!!h β
After the incomprehensible sound of surprise was transformed into heart-rending screams and wails because of the pain of being burned by this fire. The stunned eyes of Sakura and Dazna slowly followed the source of the previous sound from the two mist ninjas who were in the midst of the fire and were desperately writhing and struggling, to Naruto, who had been standing at the front of the line since the time of departure. Immediately, in an impartial manner, I happened to see the flame tail in front of the two of Narusa, which was gradually dying down. And from this, I understand that it is these two people who work together to help themselves resolve the crisis in time at the critical moment of Fangcai!
"Oh, it seems like a little bit too hard? Well, forget it, as long as I hadn't died on the spot, I should have been able to save it...... Water Escape: The Art of Water Prison! β
Although before doing it, I had made some mental preparations in my heart. But after really starting to make a move, and finding that the true strength of the opponent was far weaker than what he had feared in advance, Naruto couldn't help but secretly worry about whether he would completely solve these two enemies with just this combined attack ninjutsu that deliberately weakened the power, and lose the opportunity to interrogate information. Immediately, he quickly sealed it again, creating a huge water ball out of thin air. In order to firmly restrain the bodies of the two fog ninjas, restricting their freedom, completely cutting off their chance to escape, and extinguishing the flames burning on their bodies for them. Turning his head sideways while distracted, he looked at Sakura and Dazna, who were stunned, and asked softly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I scared you guys...... Are there any injuries? β
"Huh? Yes...... Accept...... Hurt or something...... There is no ......"
It is different from the moment when you look at it from a distance, and you can't see the reality and the reality from a distance, and it still lacks some convincing power. At this moment, the amazing scene witnessed by her own eyes was enough to completely dispel the last trace of doubt in Sakura's heart about Naruto's true strength. Then he subconsciously murmured in response, secretly deep in his heart, puzzled and complained.
"I can easily perform ninjutsu...... Sure enough, it's not just Sasuke-kun. Naruto's strength is just as good...... But...... Since you have such a strong strength, why do you have to deliberately disguise yourself in these years and make yourself an image of a 'crane tail'? Could it be that Naruto he ...... Like to be scolded? β
"Whew...... Looks like it's safe. β
At the same time, it was also in Fang Cai's abrupt change that Dazna, who was frightened, couldn't help but exhale secretly under Naruto's inquiry. Immediately, he was able to hire such a strong guard just by paying for a C-class mission, and in his heart, he whispered complacently.
"I really didn't expect that little ghost's strength to be so strong...... It seems that my commission this time really allowed me to pick up a treasure. β
It's a pity that Dazner didn't expect ......
"Ah, then again,...... Mr. Dazna, if I'm not mistaken, it's like what Kakashi-sensei just said...... Missions where ninja duels happen are at least B-rank, right? But before you set off, you swore to us that this was just one time, and we only needed to guard against the invasion and harassment of armed groups such as bandits and bandits, and escort you back to the C-class mission...... In other words, you sought refuge from our Konoha ninja while also lying about the difficulty level of the mission, didn't you? β
At the same time, Dazner felt more and more fortunate and satisfied with his vision and choice. Naruto, however, saw the opportunity for Dazna to quietly relax, blinked his eyes, and continued softly...... It's just that the words that came out afterwards were enough to make Dazna's heart become more and more cold and nervous. So much so that in the last second, the immature children's voice, which still made Dazna feel relieved and relieved, sounded like the picture of the devil from hell whispering in his ear at this moment, which was generally the same!
Now, aren't you going to explain something about that? Respected Da-Z-Na-Xian-Sheng~"
"This ...... This...... I...... That ......"
It was from this moment that Dazna, who wanted to cry without tears, realized it in hindsight......
From beginning to end, he was a taciturn image. So much so that at first glance, Naruto, who seems to be a harmless baby of humans and animals, has a true character, but he is quite dark-bellied. And in a sense, it can be regarded as a strong revenge mentality.
After all, at the end of the day...... In Naruto's previous life, there was an old saying that a gentleman takes revenge, and ten years is not too late.
In other words, although Naruto, who is a crossing party, knows very well in his heart that the reason why Dazna is so rude and annoying is that he is so rude and annoying. It's all because of his shyness, which makes him unable to pay the high rewards required for B-rank tasks. Then, with sympathy and understanding, he tolerated Dazner's actions......
It's just that understanding is understanding, and in the case of trying to maintain the direction of the main plot and avoid more butterfly effects, Naruto has already secretly decided that he will escort Dazna back to the country of waves safely and help him successfully build the bridge that is enough to change the fate of the entire country of waves......
But understanding is understanding, but this is not in conflict with Naruto's silent and reluctant waiting all the way, until the right moment comes, and then deliberately using the question to question out loud, and teasing Dazna in order to retaliate a little......
Because of this, if the current situation is based on the current situation alone, after having such a luxurious guard lineup, Dazna's life will definitely be safe and secure......
But in terms of psychology, will Dazner leave any shadows or sequelae after this mission because of his momentary rapidity......
Well, I can't say for sure. I want to talk about "Naruto: Changing My Life" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find a confidant~
