Chapter 14: Losing both

A faint smile appeared on Heiji's face.

Such a playful female ninja, she is still in the mood to joke with him at this time.

It seems that neither Utsuki Xiyan nor Captain Tianzo were injured, and this sudden encounter was fought quite easily.

Around the campfire, there were two corpses of ninjas, draped in black cloaks on the top and speckled ninja pants on the bottom.

The corpse curled up like two dead Dalmatians dogs.

They wore ninja forehead guards from the Fog Hidden Village on their heads, and it looked like they should be two middle ninjas.

The two elite ninjas of the Konoha Shadow Division faced the two middle ninjas of the Fog Hidden Village, and it was decisive that the battle was over before the warm-up exercise was completed.

"There are four of them, and two Shangninas ran away, also from Wuyin Village."

Tianzang groaned, and there was an uncertain hint in his tone.

"Why would a ninja squad composed of two upper ninjas and two middle ninjas from the Fog Hidden Village take advantage of the darkness to launch a surprise attack on the dark ninjas of Konoha at night?"

The significance behind this bizarre incident can be big or small.

It's a small story, but it may just be at the behest of the employer, ambushing here to prevent the ninjas of Konoha Village from reinforcing the country of waves.

To put it mildly, this is a prelude to a war between countries.

Heiji walked over and reconfirmed that the two ninjas were indeed ninjas from the Fog Hidden Village, not traitors who wantonly caused chaos.

The forehead guard on the head of the rebel ninja will be drawn with a sharp blade, and the symbol of the hidden village to which he belongs will be cut into two sections, implying a complete break with his own village and becoming a defected ninja.

And the forehead guards on the heads of these two fog ninjas were intact, and they couldn't even see the slightest scratch.

"Class 7 is a C-class mission, and it shouldn't be encountered by ninjas. However, with the participation of the upper shinobi of the Land of Mist, the mission level should at least be adjusted to A-level. Kakashi-senpai and Class 7 may be in a more difficult situation than we expected......"

The three of them suddenly fell asleep, immediately packed up, and moved forward at full speed in the night.

The black coat behind him was speeding up, and it was hunting in the cold wind.

Target, the country of waves.

This is a very small and very poor island nation.

is so poor that he can't even afford to raise ninjas, so he can only rely on hiring ninjas from other countries to accomplish some more bloody and violent things that ordinary mercenaries and samurai can't handle.

The Land of Waves is located halfway between the Land of Fire and the Land of Mist, and is both overwhelmed by the two great powers, while at the same time seeking the protection of both powers.

The weak and small country that survives in the cracks has almost lost all its dignity and honor, and has become a place of extrajustice that is played by the super-rich businessman Cardo.

A bridge that is more than half built between the island nation of Wave and the mainland on the other side.

The bridge deck is deserted, and there is no sign of construction at all.

Along the way, there were children in ragged clothes with yellow faces and thin muscles.

The adults are also skinny and lifeless.

"Is this Uncle Dazna's home?"

After some twists and turns, Heiji finally found the client's home.

By the time he entered the Land of Waves, he had already taken off the mask of the dark part, shed his black cloak, and turned into a soft and weak teenager.

Tenzo and Utsuki changed into out-of-town tourists and stayed at a nearby hotel.

After killing the two shinobi of the Land of Mist, the three of them have already taken a scare into the snake, and now they can only hide their identities and operate in the Land of Waves, secretly supporting Kakashi and the Seventh Division, so as not to invite even more crazy revenge from the enemy.

"Kakashi-sensei, someone has come to see you!"

Kakashi Hachiki was lying motionless on a mattress, covered with a futon on his body, looking extremely weak.

Struggling to open his right eye, which was exposed outside the mask, Kakashi glanced listlessly at Heiji, a faint smile on his face.

"You ...... Here it comes...... Great......"

Kakashi naturally knew that it wasn't just Heiji who came, it should be a dark team from Konoha Village.

A three-person squad composed of elite ninjas from the dark side in Konoha Hidden Village, whose combat effectiveness is comparable to that of a strengthened squad composed of three upper ninjas and seven or eight middle ninjas in other countries.

"It's Tianzang, and there's the moon and the sunset."

Heiji said softly.

It's private enough, and Kakashi is also the captain of the Shadows, so there's no need to hide anything from him.

"I ...... I still need ...... Recuperate for about three or four days...... This time...... Responsibility to protect the principal...... I'll leave it to you. ”

In fact, Tenzo and Utsuki Yuyan had already begun to act, and several of the Shinobi of the Land of Mist who were hiding near Uncle Dazna's house were quietly killed by them, leaving no trace at the scene.

The corpse was directly cut into a pile of flesh and blood by the ninja knife in the hand of Mao Yue Xiyan, and became the nourishment of the big tree that broke through the ground by the Tianzang Mu Dun Ninjutsu.

The bridge has resumed construction, and people are coming and going on the bridge deck, all kinds of construction vehicles and equipment are running at full capacity, and the progress of the project is amazing.

This bridge is the hope of the entire country of waves, and only after the bridge is completed and connected to the continent on the other side, can the country of waves completely get rid of the oppression of the wealthy merchant Cardo and live a rich life.

In a dark house in the Land of Waves.

Wu Yin Ren Ren was lying motionless on the bed again, with a thick layer of gauze wrapped around his neck, and blood was faintly oozing from it.

"What do you say...... A few of the ninjas sent by the mist were ...... All vanished without a trace...... No one is alive...... Dead and dead? ”

The mood of the peach field was slightly excited, and more blood seeped out on the gauze, infected on the snow-white gauze, like bright peach blossoms.

"Those two shinobi also returned to the Fog Hidden Village, they encountered the dark team of Konoha Hidden Village, killed the two middle ninjas, and unilaterally announced the suspension of the mission."

"Bastard...... Ahem...... Ahem......"

Zai Bu's face became extremely bad, and as he coughed violently, more and more blood oozed from the gauze.

"Are all the ninjas in the Land of Mist...... Even you, the famous country of fog, rebelled against the forbearance, and the ghost man was defeated and fled back with his tail between his legs...... Yo - it looks like he's seriously injured! You're not going to die like this, are you? How can I be compensated for the high commission I paid? ”

With a hoarse and shrill voice, messy blond hair, and a pair of dark sunglasses that are always blind, the wealthy merchant Cardo put his hands on his back and slowly paced to the hospital bed that would never be cut again.

Two tall and sinister samurai protected Cardo closely, exuding a fierce murderous aura all over their bodies.

Zai Bu lay on the bed, his face was pale, and he couldn't move at all.

Seeing that the famous "ghost man" Momochi was no longer extremely weak, Cardo's courage was obviously greater, and he slowly stretched out his right hand like a chicken paw and stretched out his neck that was wrapped in gauze.

"Are you dumb...... Why don't you speak? ”

Cardo grinned, his right hand like a chicken paw getting closer and closer to Zai's neck, almost touching the other party's wound.
