Is Hanwoo the hippo really sleeping? Of course not.

In the underground secret room of the Death Forest, there has always been a shadow clone of Hippo Hanyu who is engaged in research work, speaking of which, this shadow clone is still the one in the secret room of Qiki Shuo Shigeru, and his knowledge of ninjutsu theory is so rich that there is probably no one in Konoha except for the three generations of Hokage.

In order not to interfere with his research, Hippo Hanyu rarely communicated with him, but on the first day of Hanyu's hospitalization, he received news from the shadow clone that Chakra was not enough to return to his body.

His sudden return made the unprepared Hippo Hanyu mentally devastated, weakened for a long time, and then was overwhelmed by the overwhelming research results, so by sleeping, he has been sorting out his thoughts, fusing the experience of the shadow clone, and in a few days, Hippo Hanyu's strength has entered a new realm, even compared to White Fang, and the forbidden technique he opened alone is incomparable to White Fang.

It's a pity that the reality doesn't allow him to further integrate and experiment one by one.

The main battle faction of the sand ninja was caught because of the attack on Konoha and took the initiative to invade the border of the Fire Country, and the flames of war in the two largest ninja villages in the world have been ignited, and Steel Hand was ordered to bring reinforcements, and the team where Hippo Hanyu was located was also assigned to the battlefield.

In a small village on the border of the Land of Wind, in a heavily guarded earthen house, a group of sand ninjas are arguing fiercely.

"Flash, you can't do this, the whereabouts of the Wind Shadow are unknown now, and finding the Wind Shadow is the most important thing at the moment."

"Find, find, find, you've been looking for so long, and there are no results. Have you been looking for it all the time? "The shinobi named Flash looked young, in his twenties, with a long face thin and resolute, and a somewhat aggressive tone and demeanor when he spoke.

"The elders of the village are already preparing to invite the second generation of adults out of the mountain, and if you do this, you will only provoke a war between the two villages again." It was a man in his fifties who spoke.

"You guys are scared, I'm sure the disappearance of the Wind Shadow must have something to do with Konoha for sure, they can't see the three generations of the Wind Shadow leading our Sand Hidden Village back to prosperity." Flash slapped the table and stood up.

"Either way, the village has made a decision, and you must return to the village immediately."

"The village's decision? It's too late, the youngest son of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire has been killed by our people, and if the stupid Daimyo of the Land of Fire hadn't been protected by Shinobu Konoha and wouldn't have gone to see the Grim Reaper like his stupid son. ”

"You're crazy, you're going to take the Sand Hidden Village out of hell by doing this."

"I'm crazy, if I'm crazy, how can so many people be willing to act with us, don't forget, we have a blood feud with Konoha, and now is the time for revenge."

The struggle between the moderates and the radicals in the village has reached a fever pitch, and the radicals, with the young and middle-aged Shinobu as the main force, take the initiative to provoke the flames of war despite the dissuasion of the moderates.

And those steady and old voices are not supported by most people in Sand Hidden Village, after all, the hatred between Sand Ninja and Konoha Shinobu has been a long time, after these five years of recuperation, Sand Ninja, who has recovered a certain strength, are holding their breath, waiting for the opportunity to take revenge and regain the status of the first village in the ninja world.

Fueled by a number of forces, tensions have also risen between the Land of the Wind and the Land of Fire, with the assassination of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, then the burning of the palace of the Daimyo of the Land of the Wind, and the attacks on the villages on the border between the two countries, and the signs that have been detected have pushed the two countries towards war.

The conscription of the Fire Nation was in full swing, and the Daimyo of the Wind Country, who faced the threat, was also actively preparing for war, and increased the material support for the Sand Hidden Village, from the opinion that initially supported the moderates to support the radicals.

When Hippo Hanyu arrived at the border, Sand Shinobi and Konoha Shinobu had already turned from the initial confrontation to a small-scale temptation, and with the change of attitude of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind, the Sand Ninja side had been sending reinforcements continuously, forcing Konoha to increase the deployment of manpower accordingly.

It's just that Hanyu didn't have the opportunity to get more specific information, and formed several squadrons with the other Shinobu and Nakashinobi to carry out the task of evacuating the residents of the Fire Country around the border and escorting them to a safe place.

Bo Feng Mizumon is the captain of their squadron, eleven people, three ninja squads, in addition to the four members of the Kakashi team led by Bo Feng, there are also Hinata Saida, Uchiha Rinkaze, Taya Hiki and an unknown upper ninja captain, as well as three people in Hippo Hanyu's own team.

Bo Feng Shuimen unfolded the battle map and said to the other ten people: "This town is our destination this time, it is currently known that there were more than 1,000 people in this town, but half of them died in the last Sand Ninja sneak attack, and there are still more than 500 people, our task is to send them here before the war breaks out, we have a stronghold here, and there are currently more than 50 ninjas to protect the safety here, and the daimyo has also sent an army of 500 people to garrison here." ”

"Because this is relatively close to the border of the Wind Country, and there have been signs of sand ninja activity there recently, we must be very careful, and the current tentative mission level is A-class. Now let's arrange the tasks of each team, Murakami, you lead your team to open the way in front, Hanyu your team is broken in the rear, and the remaining four people are in the center. ”

"Because there are too many villages that need to be moved, we only have 12 people, but we have to protect the safety of more than 500 civilians, such a task is very difficult, I hope you will cheer up and complete this task well."

The wave on the battlefield was calm and resolute, and soon made the above arrangements according to the characteristics of the three teams.

After a short rest, the group immediately rushed to their destination.

"Hanyu" Bo Fengshuimen deliberately lagged behind, came to the side of Hippo Hanyu, and said: "I have a bad premonition, we will definitely encounter trouble in this mission." ”

Hippo Hanyu smiled: "I didn't expect you to believe in such a thing as a hunch." ”

"My hunch is very good." Bo Feng Shuimen ignored Hippo Hanyu's ridicule and continued: "I only have one request, if we are really in danger, please do your best, I don't want to see my teammates have casualties." ”

Seeing that Bo Feng Shuimen said very solemnly, Hippo Hanyu was silent for a moment before saying: "Everyone here is my friend, and I don't want to see any of them have an accident." ”

With the guarantee of Hippo Hanyu, Bo Feng Shuimen was much relieved and returned to the team.

"Brother Hanyu," Uchiha Obito exclaimed excitedly, "I finally have the opportunity to carry out a mission with you." ”

"Obitu, I haven't seen you for almost a month, what's the matter, has there been any progress during this time?"

"Of course, the method that Brother Hanyu taught me last time is really effective, I have been able to control myself well to walk on the water, and I am practicing tree climbing these days." Hanyu is about to become an idol in the eyes of Obito.

"Okay, I'll teach you a few Fire Escape Ninjutsu." Hippo Hanyu likes the innocence and kindness of Obito, which is a noble quality that is rare to see in the profession of ninja.

"I'm going to learn Fire Fengxiang, that technique is so cool." Obito shouted.

"You're so stupid, you still want to learn Huo Fengxiang." I didn't expect the relationship between Kakashi and Obito to be so incompatible.

"Kakashi, don't just talk about others, the technique I taught you last time, you haven't mastered it yourself." Hanyu the hippo taught Chidori to Kakashi in advance, hoping to improve his combat effectiveness.

"Humph!" Kakashi looked unconvinced and ran to the side alone.

"Ignore him." Hippo Hanyu didn't bother to be childish with Kakashi, and chatted with Obito indiscriminately, and the cowhide blew loudly.

Looking at the dilapidated villages and towns in front of them, everyone's mood is a little low, they are all born in the war years, they can really feel the horror of the war the most, but for their own ideals, for the people they want to protect, they have to get involved in the war.

No normal person likes war, and neither do their ninjas.

"Village Chief, we are the shinobi of Konoha, because this place is close to the front line, we are ordered, please move to a safe place for the time being, and come back when it is safe." Bo Feng Shui Gate to the village chief, a kind old way.

"Are you really Konoha shinobi?" The old man was a little excited, and his dry hand held Bo Fengshui Gate tightly and said, "You want to avenge us!" You see, almost every family in our village has a funeral, and all of this is done by the Land of the Wind. As he spoke, the old man was already in tears.

Bo Feng Shuimen's heart is also sour, these villagers are just innocent victims, and we, Konoha Shinobi, as the guardian of the Fire Country, have the responsibility to protect the lives of these civilians.

"Village Chief, don't worry, we will seek justice from the Land of Winds." Bo Feng Shuimen sincerely assured that there were tears in his eyes.

Under the persuasion of the village chief, the simple villagers agreed to temporarily leave their hometown with the ninjas of Konoha and take refuge in other places.

Looking at the team of 500 men, women and children, Hippo Hanyu deeply felt the arduousness of the task.
