Chapter 63: Ambush!

The border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Grass is a shallow river, and on the right side of the river, there is an endless meadow, and there is the territory of the Land of Grass.

The country of grass is a small country, and there are no ninjas stationed near the borders. But the Fire Country is different, there are twenty ninjas who take turns guarding the border of the Fire Country every day and night, and will not let the people of the Grass Country easily enter.

At this moment, it was just dawn, and only five Konoha ninjas stood guard near the border, while the other fifteen ninjas were still sleeping in the cabins of the base.

"Click......

With the sound of footsteps, a tall figure suddenly stepped out of the woods in front of him.

Looking at the Uchiha Fugaku in a daze, who was wearing the Uchiha family suit, a moment later, the five guard ninjas were awakened by the cold wind.

Without hesitation, they quickly took out the flare from their pockets, and just as they were about to pull it, a sharp wind breaking force suddenly came from behind.

Behind them, five Uchiha clan members came out of nowhere, and the small knives in their hands fell at the same time, and the five guard ninjas fell to the ground in pain in an instant.

After killing the guard ninja silently, behind Uchiha Fugaku, more and more Uchiha members emerged from the woods.

After a day and a night of non-stop travel, the entire Uchiha clan finally arrived at the border of the Fire Country under the leadership of Uchiha Fugaku, and as long as they stepped on the river in front of them, they could reach their destination, the country of grass.

"Everyone, in the future, the country of grass will be the territory of our Uchiha family, and we will start a new life in the country of grass!"

Looking at the grass behind the river, Uchiha Fugaku also breathed a sigh of relief, and then shouted loudly.

After Uchiha Fugaku's words fell, the tired faces of the Uchiha people also showed happy smiles, and when they arrived in the country of grass, they would be able to escape Konoha and be hunted down, and there was nothing happier than being alive.

"Let's go!"

With a wave of his hand, Uchiha Fugaku did not delay and directly commanded the clansmen to cross the river.

Under the command of Uchiha Fugaku, hundreds of Uchiha people crossed the river in an orderly manner, because the water level was very shallow, many people crossed easily, and only some elderly people and young children needed the help of others.

As the patriarch, Uchiha Fugaku naturally stayed behind to cushion the back, and he would not leave until all the clansmen had crossed the river.

"Fugaku, Sasuke hasn't come back yet, what should I do?"

Seeing that the other clansmen had crossed the river and stepped into the country of grass, Uchiha Mikoto suddenly walked up to Uchiha Fugaku's side and asked worriedly.

Hearing Uchiha Mikoto's question, Uchiha Fugaku sighed, since Sasuke left the main army that night, he was also restless during this time.

The talent and talent shown by Sasuke have made Uchiha Fugaku regard Sasuke as more important than his own life, so when Sasuke leaves the army, he is naturally more worried than Uchiha Mikoto.

After being silent for a while, in order to comfort Uchiha Mikoto, Uchiha Fugaku said softly, "Sasuke should be looking for Itachi, don't worry!" With Itachi here, he will definitely protect Sasuke. ”

"Itachi, Sasuke, you must come back safely!"

Nodding, Uchiha Mikoto had no choice but to pray inwardly.

……

After a night's journey, Itachi and his party walked out of the dimly lit endless forest, and then came to the rocky forest very close to the border.

"Brother, if you hadn't arrived in time last time, I'm afraid I'd have died here!"

Running on the road, the surrounding rocks seemed somewhat familiar, Sasuke was in a trance for a moment, and then suddenly remembered the last C-class mission, and then chuckled.

Itachi also laughed at this time, and said, "At that time, I happened to be on a mission with my teammates nearby, otherwise it would be too far away, and even if I saw a signal flare, I wouldn't be able to catch up."

"Sasuke has been here before?"

Listening to the conversation between Sasuke and Itachi, Izumi Uchiha glanced at the rocks around her and asked suspiciously.

"Well, I was following Kakashi-sensei on a mission, but I didn't expect to be ambushed by the client here!"

Nodding, Sasuke also explained simply.

"I almost forgot ......"

However, when he said the word "ambush", Sasuke suddenly thought of something, so he frowned and shouted.

Maybe because he was being chased and killed, his brain was too tight, Sasuke even forgot that Konoha would also send people to ambush on the road, and now that he is getting closer and closer to the border, the ambush is likely to be in this rock forest.

"Brother...... Here......"

Just as Sasuke was about to warn Itachi, there were suddenly many wind-breaking sounds around the rocks, and I saw a few kunai with detonation charms quickly flying in mid-air.

"Get out of the way!"

The corners of the weasel's eyes also twitched, suppressing the horror in his heart, and hurriedly took the lead in sweeping towards the rocks on the side, facing the detonation charm, even a strong man like him had to retreat.

When Itachi dodged, Sasuke and Uchiha Izumi were also taken aback by the sudden attack, but fortunately, the two of them did not lose their coolness and retreated together at the moment.

"Boom!!"

Itachi, Sasuke, and Izumi Uchiha reacted quickly enough, but the other three Uchiha people were one step too late, and the detonating charm that had already reached its destination exploded violently at this time.

With the explosion of the detonator, the scorching flames swept away wildly, and the entire area seemed to become like a steamer at this time, and the blazing temperature made the ground below burn directly.

Bang!

Sasuke, Uchiha Izumi was far away from the center of the explosion, but the spread of the storm still shook them away, and then fell to the ground in embarrassment.

"Sasuke, Izumi, you're all right!"

Seeing them fall to the ground, Itachi hurriedly leaped over and then asked with concern.

Sasuke, Uchiha Izumi got up and quickly shook her head, thinking about what these skin injuries on their bodies were compared to the three clansmen who had already died in the flames.

Just after the detonation charm exploded, Itachi, Sasuke, and Izumi Uchiha were surrounded by more than thirty masked Konoha ninjas.

"We've been ambushed!"

Glancing at the surrounding roots, the ninjas in the shadows, Itachi said in a low voice.

"Brother, there is no way, we can only force a breakthrough!"

Pulling out the small knife on his back, Sasuke said fiercely.

"Sasuke, Izumi, wait a minute, I'll use Hao's fireball technique to open a way out, you guys take the opportunity to escape!"

In the face of so many members of the Shadow Division, Itachi knew that the three of them would definitely not be able to escape all, so he whispered.

"Brother, what about you?"

Hearing this, Sasuke's heart also jumped, and then he frowned and asked.

"I'm in the back to buy you time! Sasuke, Izumi, remember, don't look back! ”

A complicated look flashed across his face, and Itachi whispered.

(On the last day of the week, I hope that the recommended votes will reach 1000, and there are still more than 200 votes left, come on, brothers!) )
