"Brother, are you going out of the village tomorrow on a mission? Isn't it going to take a few days to come back? As soon as Ino heard that Echizen and Kazue were also going out of the village to carry out the mission, he said with some reluctance.

"It should be soon, I'll bring you a gift when I come back!" Kazuya Echizen patted Ino on the head and said with a smile.

"This is Kazuya's first time going out of the house, you must pay more attention to safety outside, and you can't let your guard down at any time, you know?" Keiko Yamanaka was also very worried about Echizen and Wazu, who was traveling far away, for fear that he would encounter danger outside, and Liu Mei reminded with a slight frown.

"Don't worry, Aunt Keiko, I'll be careful outside, besides, with Miyamoto-sensei here, there won't be much danger, and I'll take care of each other with Luyi and Yoshito!" Kazuya Echizen said with a relaxed expression, wanting to reassure Keiko Yamanaka.

"Well, it's good that you know, don't be too reckless, and rely on your teammates more if you have something," Keiko Yamanaka, although she was still not at ease, still smiled reluctantly, and said to Echizen Kazuya with a thousand instructions.

"Xiaobai, you have to be obedient with your brother, and you have to protect your brother well, you know?" Ino learned from Keiko Yamanaka, and told the White Emperor in a milky voice, looking at Echizen Kazuya with a serious face, the White Emperor was seriously communicating with Ino, nodding vigorously in response to Ino's words.

Early the next morning, Echizen Kazuya, who had packed up, took Emperor Bai to the appointed meeting place early, and stood at the entrance of the village looking out of the village with great energy, looking forward to his first mission. I wonder if it will be like Naruto and them, who will encounter an enemy like that in the first C-rank mission? Echizen Kazuya thought secretly in his heart.

"Yikes! Kazuya you came so early, I thought I would be the first! Did you also be so excited that you couldn't sleep last night? Hahaha! Echizen and Kazue didn't have to wait long before Nara, who was also excited, rushed over happily and said with a hearty laugh.

"I'm really looking forward to it, but I don't know what kind of enemy we will encounter, so we have to be careful!" Echizen Kazuya said smugly.

"Of course, but my mother's ears are calloused, and I've been constantly reminded to pay attention to safety since I got home yesterday, it's really annoying!" As soon as Nara Kazuya heard Echizen Kazuya's words, he complained loudly, but there was not much impatience in his tone, but he looked a little happy.

Compared to Echizen Kazuya and Nara Kae, Akimichi Yoshito was late, he was only a little earlier than Miyamoto Musashi, who arrived on time, with a bunch of snacks on his body, and said with a smile: "My mother is afraid that I will be hungry, so she has to prepare a bunch of food for me, it took me too long, and I have already come!" ”

Echizen Kazuya saw the equipment of the Akido righteous people, and found that he was like a child on a spring outing, with a large bag and a small package full of food, so he smiled and said: "Righteous man, my aunt packed so many things for you to take away, do you want to help you lose weight?" ”

"Huh? No way? My mom said I was the cutest, so it wouldn't make me lose weight, right? Qiu Daoyi was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking about it, he said with some uncertainty.

"Then we should be back in a few days, how can my aunt prepare so much food for you?" Kazuya Echizen asked with a smile.

"Can we be back in a few days?" Qiu Daoyi was stunned when he heard this, and said in frustration: "Ah! I thought we were going out for a long time! ”

"No, we will be slower when we escort Mr. Fujita over, but when we come back, it will be a lot faster, and it will be enough time for about seven days to go back and forth, so your pile of snacks is definitely a burden!" Kazuya Echizen said with a smile.

"It's so damnning, I stuffed all my favorite foods into my bag!" Qiu Daoyi said distressedly.

"I think it's better for you to leave some things behind, otherwise you'll have to lose a few pounds on your back and forth. Besides, it is very inconvenient to carry so many things in case of a battle! Nara Kaeki also looked at the big bag of luggage of the righteous man of Akimichi and teased.

"Alright then, I'll listen to you!" Qiu Daoyi reluctantly sent back most of the snacks he brought, and only rushed back breathlessly after a while.

"Okay, then let's go, you have to be careful at all times when you leave the village, understand?" Miyamoto Musashi reminded carefully.

"Yes!" Echizen Kazuya and the three of them should make peace, carefully protect Fujita Nobui in the middle, and go all the way in the direction of River Country.

The task of escorting Fujita Nobuka was extremely calm for the first three days, and Echizen Kazuya and others were able to take a good look at the scenery of the Fire Country, which was full of harmony and tranquility in March, not only the natural scenery was extremely beautiful, a hundred flowers were blooming, competing with each other, and the pedestrians on the road were also full of spring and enthusiasm.

On the fourth day, Echizen Kazuya and his party approached the border of the Fire Country, and by this time, although they were still in the Fire Country, they could already clearly see the difference from the area around Konoha Village.

The people on the border of the Fire Country have become sparsely populated, and the people I see by chance are also ragged, yellow-skinned, and not at all like the neighborhood of Konoha Village, and I know that their lives are not good at a glance. Echizen Kazuya and his entourage can occasionally see groups of people in fancy clothes passing by, all of them looking fierce, similar to those hired by Cardo in the original work.

Echizen Kazuya also found several sneaky people who had been observing them for a while, and after being educated at the ninja school, he guessed that these people should be some nearby thieves who sent eyeliner, and most of them would not take the initiative to provoke them after discovering that they were ninjas.

Kazuya Echizen, who had never seen anything before, suddenly understood what it meant to be "white bones exposed in the wilderness, and no rooster crowed for thousands of miles", and he also understood the meaning of troubled times more deeply.

In his previous life, when he was in a peaceful era, sitting leisurely in front of the computer and watching the hot-blooded Hokage anime, he couldn't understand the vision of Senju Tsuruma and Madara Uchiha longing for peace, at most, he just thought of his own sorrow as an orphan when he saw them lose their loved ones, and felt some empathy.

But when the picture of the troubled times really unfolded in front of his eyes, Echizen Kazuya, who had been living in a peaceful era in his previous life and was also in the relatively peaceful and wealthy village of Konoha Village in this life, was greatly impacted, and even somewhat understood why Madara Uchiha was so desperate as to use such extreme means as Infinite Tsukiyomi to achieve peace.

Losing one's free will in exchange for a happy life may be a very happy thing for these people who live in dire straits, Echizen Kazuya thought to himself as he looked at the numb faces in front of him.

Echizen Kazuya, who had never seen these scenes, felt a boulder in his chest, like a boulder pressing on his heart, and wanted to give some help to these suffering people, but found that the people who came into his eyes were all such poor people, and he couldn't help them at all, even if he saved one or two, it would be useless.

Miyamoto Musashi was depressed when he saw Echizen Kazuya and the three of them arrive at the border of the Fire Country, of course he knew what was going on, but he didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only hope that they would see all this by themselves and come out of their low mood.

It wasn't until a day later, when Echizen Kazuya and the others entered the territory of the River Country and saw the more chaotic situation in the River Country, that Echizen Kazuya and the others gradually became accustomed to the scene in front of them, and their emotions returned to stability.
