In fact, the five great powers do not share a border with each other.

Each large country is surrounded by wings, dotted with a circle of smaller countries that act as a buffer.

These small states are usually squeezed and seized as vassals of large countries, and when war comes, they will be used as battlefields to prevent wars from breaking out within their own borders.

So it's a border area, but in essence, the Konoha ninjas are already on the border of the Land of Rain. As the intersection of the three major ninja villages of sand, rock, and Konoha has always been a battleground for soldiers.

The other regions are either vast or extremely tricky, but the Land of Rain is the most suitable place for the three nations to fight a bad war. Therefore, the battlefield of Konoha is generally divided into two routes: the land of rain on the eastern front - sand ninja and rock ninja, and the country of soup on the western front - cloud ninja.

And the fog at the back hangs lonely, even if you pay attention, that's what happened. The objective existence of the coastline makes it very difficult to defend against the fog ninja.

Therefore, in the layout of the battle line, it is generally chosen to deploy and reconnoiter around and even inside the country of rain.

The three shinobi are stationed here to guard against a sneak attack by the other two powers.

And the price of doing so is that except for the defense line of Yuno, the defense in other directions is relatively empty. But this is also a choice that there is no way to make, and the Land of Rain must not give up. As a bridgehead linking the three major powers, once any two countries reach an agreement, the other country will not be able to eat and go around.

Unlike the isolated clouds and fogs, their relationship is more complex and subtle, and they must keep an eye on each other. There is no way to do it if the other fronts are relatively weak. Unless Konoha conjures up a high-level ninja out of thin air.

It's just that the ninja was confirmed dead a month ago, and it is difficult for Konoha to draw out any combat power to support, so he can only bet on the defense line of the rain.

However, as the supreme commander of the rain country region, the three ninjas are now quietly running under the night.

The other upper and middle ninjas who were supposed to be the countermeasures were not by their side, because once the three ninjas displayed their highest speed and strength, it was easy to affect them, not to mention, and it was easy to expose the surrounding arrangements.

It's just that the three shinobi have tried their best to start tracking, but they can only see the back of the mysterious duo. It even felt like they were hanging on purpose, keeping a looming distance and letting the three shinobi chase after them.

"Shouldn't we say hello in advance?"

Jiraiya, who was running in the forest, looked at the two silent companions behind him and said a little strangely:

"Now the commander of the Land of Rain is the three of us, and it always feels a little wrong to come out directly in such a breath-"

"You have to catch those two to get there. They left the papers in the tent and left. Even if it's well-intentioned, we need to determine who is doing it. ”

"Tsunade was right. I'm afraid that the enemy's ability is not ordinary, and the three of us together, this is the safest. ”

Tsunade and Orochimaru immediately interrupted Jiraiya's words, and each stared at the backs of the two wearing haori in front of them, both with a little chill in their hearts.

They saw with their own eyes how the two men had entered their tent, how they had put papers on their desks as if no one had been around, and then swaggered out through the main entrance.

Although I don't know why everyone can't see them, the three shinobi still instinctively rush straight towards the two figures. They instinctively sensed that there was definitely a big secret in these two people.

Not informing the others, on the one hand, because they have absolute confidence, with the strength of their squad, there is no big problem in dealing with the two mysterious ninjas. On the other hand, it can also be seen from the behavior of leaving after entering the account, I am afraid that the ninjas at the bottom will not be able to see them at all.

And in addition to this, there is another important reason. It's just that everybody thinks that shouldn't be a reason.

Staring at one of the two white Haori backs, Tsunade bit his lip, praying that his instincts were just hallucinations.

“…… Well, here you go. ”

The slightly shorter, tousled figure of the two said suddenly.

The two figures dressed in feathers suddenly stopped in a glade, causing Sanshinobi to fall not far behind.

Before Sannin directly questioned who the other party was, the two strangely dressed men went straight to Sannin, which made people wonder which side the two people were.

"The three of you, obviously deliberately placed so many clues, but you came to them at this limit, is the so-called three ninjas exaggerated?"

The man who took the lead looked at the three ninjas who were tracking over with dissatisfaction, and reprimanded angrily in a low voice:

"Whether it's the route you choose, or the guards you arrange, what are you going to do in the face of that kind of enemy who has a strong stealth ability? Will you chase it out like you are now, and let the big camp be exposed in front of the other ninja villages? ”

"You are, Konoha ninjas? The Uchiha family's ......? ”

Looking at the two figures wearing white feathers, wearing Konoha markings, and wearing masks, the three shinobi who chased them out of the tent couldn't help but be stunned in place.

The man standing in front of them and angrily scolding them did not cover his eyes, and a pair of writing wheels with three hooks were enough to prove the identity of his Uchiha family.

And his feather weaving has a 'six' character written on it, with the coat of arms of the Uchiha fan, which looks quite imposing.

But what really made the Sanshino feel a trembling from the bottom of their hearts was that they looked at the figure behind the Uchiha. The long white hair of the moon, everyone couldn't help but think of a name in their hearts that they remembered for a long time.

Tsunade's boyfriend is a supporter of Konoha's medical ninja system, and he is a strong man who once had a reputation among Konoha and mastered the art of spiritualization. With his long white hair and slightly slender body, at least any of the three shinobi had a reason to remember him.

Kato broken.

The white-haired man who was suspected to be Kato's broken was looking at them with the Uchiha, wearing an animal mask.

"Broken ...... Is that you? ”

Why......

Looking at the two of them, wearing a man with 'two' on the back and a mansha bead tattooed on the edge, Tsunade's pupils couldn't help but tremble.

Only this figure, Tsunade will never admit to mistake.

Even if he didn't feel the presence of Chakra, even if it was just a shadow left, looking at the moon-white long hair and familiar figure, Tsunade felt a pain that drilled his heart began to bloom in his body.

How could she not recognize what her lover really looked like. That slightly elegant and gentle figure, even if it turns to ashes, Tsunade can fully recognize it.

That's Kato Broken.

It was Kato who was once confirmed dead and was a hero of the Konoha War.

Even if the situation was unknown now, the princess of the Thousand Hands family couldn't help but take a step forward, looked at the familiar figure in disbelief, and called softly.

"Broken ...... Are you alive now? ”

“……”

"Broken! Why not speak! Is that you! Did someone summon you out with a forbidden spell? Answer me! Break! ”

“……”

Ignoring Tsunade's angry cries, the two of them, dressed in white Haori and wearing masks, stood there silently.

The air seemed to be frozen, and Tsunade looked painfully at the hidden figure of his lover wearing a mask, and felt as if his heart was about to be shattered.

Looking at Tsunade's desperate gaze, the white-robed figure who was called Kato Broken whispered to his companion:

“…… Continue as planned. ”

"Ahh I know. ”

Looking at the three ninjas in front of them, the two people in white feathers slowly pulled out two sharp blades from their cuffs.

At night, a cold wind blew the woods sparsely.

Under the white moon, there seems to be an unimaginable thing happening in this environment.

The two long knives that shimmered in the cold light under the moon were reflected in the pupils of the three shinobi, and the two mysterious visitors wearing the masks of Haori slowly placed the blades horizontally in their hands.

In an instant, a sudden, as if the world was rejecting them, an invisible pressure made Sannin stumble subconsciously. That invisible pressure slowly spread along with their movements, and even made Sannin feel that his breathing began to be a little unsmooth.

'What is this?! ’

The pressure that surged in that moment also made the three ninjas, who were about to secretly release the psychic beast seal, lose the opportunity, and could only watch as the blades in the hands of those two released a scorching white light.

"'Simulating the Beginning.'" ”

The deep voices of the two overlapped, intertwining in the night, like a whispered cry.

"Rekindle, Ember."

"Separate, spirit."

The light and shadow intertwined, and a grotesque chirp sounded in everyone's hearts.

Suddenly, in this empty woodland, only Jiraiya and the mysterious Uchiha were left.

Looking at this surreal scene, Jiraiya's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe that his two teammates had disappeared in front of his eyes like this.

“——！”

I can't feel it.

Still I don't feel anything.

It was as if everything was an illusion, but he was going crazy himself, and he didn't feel anything.

Only as if nature itself was against itself, as if the world was hostile to itself, the whole body was filled with heavier and heavier pressure.

Jiraiya looked angrily at the figure of the Uchiha family who had changed from holding a sharp blade to holding a withered branch under the white moon, and couldn't help but shout loudly with some breathlessness:

"Who the hell are you?! It's obviously a ninja of Konoha who wants to do such a thing! ”

“…… It's because he's a ninja of Konoha that he has to do this kind of thing. ”

The pressure that swirled around his body suddenly relaxed.

In the next second, with a muffled sound, Jiraiya watched as the Uchiha ninja holding a withered branch instantly pierced his shoulder.

With the splash of blood, the pupils of the three-hooked jade revealed in the mask stared at Jiraiya's shocked appearance, as if he wanted to pour something into Jiraiya's soul through the dead branches and eyes in his hands.

"It's because I'm a ninja in Konoha that I have to do this. It's mine...... Junior! ”
