Chapter Twenty-Six: Kakashi's Escort Mission

The base of the root.

Danzo ordered the detachment led by Tenzo: "On the way to meet the daimyo of Sarutobi, you take the opportunity to sneak attack!" ”

Tuan Zang's order is not clear, and he took the opportunity to sneak attack, but what kind of result he wants to achieve, but he did not explain it.

Tenzo, the captain of this sneak attack mission, was confused. As a ninja of Konoha, why did you sneak up on the Hokage of Konoha?

As the only wooden ninja in Konoha, Danzo has given Tenzo a lot of privileges, and relatively speaking, Tenzo enjoys more freedom and more humane management. Despite resisting Danzang's orders, Tenzo stayed by Danzang's side since he was a child, and Tuanzang was very strict, but Tenzo still led the team to set off.

--------------------------------

Shadows.

Aso solemnly explained to Kakashi, "White Fang, Hokage-sama's safety is in your hands!" ”

When Kakashi accepted the task, he was very cautious.

The three generations of Wind Shadow in Sand Hidden Village were attacked by someone and died inexplicably, causing chaos in Sand Hide, which then affected the entire ninja world. Now, Sand Hidden Village has become the weakest ninja village on land among the five major countries. Ape Fei's strength is strong, but it is undeniable that the three generations are a little old, and it is not ruled out that ninjas from other countries may take the opportunity to sneak attack.

With this in mind, Kakashi felt the need to change his original plan.

--------------------------------

"My lord, I think it's necessary to change my original plan for this meeting with the Daimyo." As soon as the plan was made, Kakashi asked to meet the Hokage.

"Oh, Kakashi, what do you have in mind?" Although he does not currently belong to Sarutobi's lineage, Kakashi's tactical awareness is undoubtedly super-strong, Sarufei habitually asked.

"As the backbone of Konoha, adults should not risk their lives. The gentleman did not stand under the wall, and I begged that I disguise myself as an adult, and the adult will take another route to meet the daimyo. Kakashi said what he had in mind.

Kakashi's plan is common, stealing beams and changing pillars, and ninjas often use it when guarding important targets. It's just that the Hokage, as the shadow of a village, adopts Kakashi's plan, and the ape flies to pull down the face.

"Well, just go according to your plan!" Ape Fei groaned.

At present, it is not advisable for Ape Fei to leave the village for too long. With Kakashi's plan, traveling light and simple can really save too much time. Moreover, Kakashi offered to use himself as a decoy, indicating that Kakashi was still loyal to the Hokage.

--------------------------------

Sand Hidden Village.

"My lord, I just received a message from the Eagle that the Hokage of Konoha will set off in three days to meet with the Daimyo of the Fire Country!" Markey said to Kazekage Rasha.

After the end of the Shinobi War, the Daimyo of the Land of the Wind reduced the supply of materials to the Sand Hidden Village, and the life of the Sand Hidden Village was very sad. To this end, Raksha eliminated some low-level ninjas and made every effort to train elite ninjas.

"Send a team of shadows, if possible—" Raksha made a wind-cut gesture with his hand.

"My lord, will this lead to war?" Markey worried.

Deep down, Ma Ji is the main battle faction, but with the current situation of Shayin, it is really not suitable to take the initiative to provoke a war.

"Without war, how could the daimyo support us?" Raksha explained, "This time, it's just a test to see how Konoha reacts. In my opinion, I'm afraid that the old man Ape Fei also thinks that Sha Yin doesn't have the guts to offend Konoha, and I, Luo Sha, do the opposite. Konoha suspects that the Nine-Tails Incident has Uchiha's involvement, and if the Uchiha is not resolved, Sarufei should not be too tough to the outside world. ”

In Luo Sha's plan, Ape Fei behaved toughly and apologized; If Ape Fei compromises, or ignores it, it proves that Luo Sha is right to bet, and he can be tougher on Konoha in the future and ask for more benefits.

"Okay, I'll personally lead the team to the Land of Fire, so that the people below don't make a fuss too much." Markey nodded.

The alliance between Konoha and Sand Hide has always been very strange. The wind shadow of the sand is missing, and the choice of the sand is to blame Konoha and attack Konoha; If the Wind Shadow of the Sand Hidden is alive and strong, it still chooses to attack Konoha. For Konoha, an alliance with Sand Hidden is like an alliance with a steppe wolf, and he will be bitten from time to time.

The war between Konoha and Sha Yin was mostly provoked by Sha Yin on his own initiative. Most of the people in the sand didn't think there was anything wrong with attacking Konoha, especially the ninjas who had been to the Land of Fire.

The people of Sand Hidden Village believe that "the environment of the Fire Country is so blessed, who will you attack if you don't attack Konoha." In the land of earth, almost all of the borders are bare mountains, and the sand is not interested; The country of water, far away at sea, the shipbuilding technology of the sand hidden is not good, besides, there is no good seaport; The land of thunder, the country of fire in between.

Almost every time there is a ninja war, the sand will attack the land of fire. Ironically, on the bright side, Sunagakure and Konoha are still allies.

--------------------------------

Konoha and Kakashi transformed into the form of Ape Fly, and the shadow clone disguised as Kakashi, leading the detachment to set off to Fire City, where the daimyo lived, in the farewell of the residents of Konoha.

The detachment was divided into four squads, and Kakashi personally led the ten ninjas selected. The other thirty team members are nominally under Kakashi's command, but the squad leader is all appointed by Aso. In fact, Kakashi, as the leader of the detachment, can actually command only Itachi, Nishikito and others.

However, this mission was to protect the Hokage, and all the members of the detachment did not dare to be careless, and did not dare to disobey Kakashi's command. They didn't have a chakra, so they naturally didn't know that the Hokage in the team was actually a stand-in.

The afternoon sun, through the sparse leaves, shines warmly on the body, giving people a comfortable enjoyment. If you're not on a mission, but you're traveling, it's a rare good time.

The Land of Fire, located in the middle of the continent, similar to ancient Egypt, occupies the key points of transportation, and the environment is even more beautiful, with a pleasant climate, abundant rain, and fertile arable land. Ninjas, when they don't have a mission, are forbidden to leave the village. Similar to Nishikido and the others, Itachi left Konoha for the first time, despite being a ninja of the Uchiha.

Along the way, observing the beauty and wealth of the Fire Country, Itachi has a more intuitive feeling of the reasons why other countries often attack the Fire Country. The land of fire, like a billionaire living in a slum, can't be said without being remembered. If it weren't for Konoha's strong force, the Land of Fire would most likely become a country full of calamities.

"Stop!" Kakashi made a gesture to stop his advance.

Before the words fell, I saw the rattan-like wood quickly attack the "Ape Fei".

"Mu Dun!" Kakashi was shocked inside.

After the pillars, there were no more wooden ninjas in Konoha.

Kakashi immediately concluded that the person who came must be a ninja from Konoha. The shadows have never heard of a ninja who will be wooden, and the only possibility is that the wood-free ninja on the opposite side is from the root of the group.

"Defense, just repel the enemy!" Kakashi commanded in a loud voice, then retracted his transformation technique.

The target, "Sarutobi", turned into Kakashi, and the Kigetsu ninja on the other side was equally shocked. When, the Hokage has already been replaced. Kakashi casts Rachel to split Tenzo's Wood Dun Thorn Killing Technique, quickly dodging it.

"Wood Escape, Wood Ingot Wall!" Seeing Kakashi rushing at extreme speed, Tenzo immediately summoned a row of wooden pillars from the ground and bent them to form an arch to protect him.

Compared to Kakashi, who has experienced ninja warfare, Tenzo's combat experience is very lacking. Mu Dun Ninjutsu, Tianzo has not yet exerted the effect of Pillar Issei, so naturally he can't deal with Kakashi who has a writing wheel eye.

Before he could use the Wood Escape Vajra Power Technique, Tenzo had already been knocked down. Kakashi's shuriken stopped in front of Tenzo's mask and asked in a deep voice, "Are you Konoha's ninja?" ”

“····” Tenzo is noncommittal, the mission fails, maybe Kakashi will kill himself. Ninjas, even if they want to die, keep their dignity.

At the same time, the other ninjas in the root were successfully repelled by the members of the Detachment, and they gathered behind Kakashi one after another. Quite a few people were excited about successfully repelling the enemy, after all, many of them were on a dark mission for the first time.

What is surprising is that there were no casualties in this battle. It stands to reason that if you dare to sneak attack the Hokage, you should be a powerful ninja, why is the enemy who sneaks up this time so anticlimactic.

"It's not so much a sneak attack, it's more of a drill!" Itachi pursed his lips and chuckled inwardly. Sarutobi and Danzou cooperated with each other to play a double reed, and the target of the assassination was the Hokage, but a team of rookies was sent, obviously to test Kakashi.

"Senior, this seems to be a wooden ninja, do you want to capture him alive?" Shirota asked.

"No, let him go!" Retracting his shuriken, Kakashi said to Tenzo in a deep voice, "You go, I don't want to hurt Konoha's only Wood Ninja!" ”

"Thank you, Kakashi!" Tianzang read in his heart, immediately turned over, and left quickly without looking back.

"Senior, he's the only Wood Escape Ninja in Konoha, why don't you capture him and hand him over to Hokage-sama?" Hiroshi asked puzzled.

"Do you know how cats die?" Kakashi Road.

"Ah, how did you die?" Guang Mo was stunned for a moment, and replied a little out of the way.

"Because I'm too curious." Kakashi said angrily.

Sure enough, after listening to Kakashi's words, Hirosue shrank his head, and Nishikito and the others, who still had doubts in their hearts, quickly swallowed the words back into their stomachs.

Some things, if put on the table too early, leave no room for manoeuvre. Following behind Kakashi, looking at Kakashi's back through the vicissitudes of life, Itachi thought to himself, don't look at Kakashi being listless all day and obsessed with "intimacy heaven", but that is just to dispel the great grief in his heart. Kakashi is a very politically wise man, otherwise he would not have gone through several dynasties, and he still survived the storm, and even became the Hokage in the end.

"No one is allowed to say anything about today!" Kakashi ordered.

"Yes!" The members of the detachment replied. Many of the people who assassinated the Hokage and Konoha can't figure it out, but everyone still understands the truth that the disaster comes from the mouth. Immortals fight, mortals suffer, and big people are in trouble, so it's best not to be involved casually.

With the team in order, Kakashi continued on his way with the detachment. Without receiving a summons from the Hokage, Kakashi could not return to the village yet.

After Kakashi and the others left, a figure emerged from the sandy earth not far away, it was Maki who was hiding in the sand using the Sand Escape Concealment Technique. It turned out that Markey ventured deep into the Fire Nation to investigate the news, and happened to meet Kakashi and the others, and when he saw that he couldn't do anything, he immediately used the Concealment Technique to lurk. Kakashi's attention was all focused on the roots, and naturally he didn't find it. Kakashi didn't find out, but that doesn't mean that no one among the Konoha ninjas did.

Itachi discovers Markey's tracks, but doesn't say so. Finding the Wood Ninja, it's no wonder that Markey won't arrest him. As long as Markey captures Tianzang, in order to save Tianzang, it will inevitably be more thrilling. There may also be opportunities to "leave alone" and act alone. Going to the country of rivers and the country of wind to investigate, Itachi has been waiting for an opportunity, and now, Sand Yin has sent the opportunity over.

"I didn't expect Konoha to have a wooden ninja again, and he was left alone, it's a good opportunity for Shayin!" As soon as Markey appeared, he kept chasing in the direction that Tenzo had left.
