Outside Konoha Village, in the dense forest, four figures jumped among the trees.

They wore uniforms, dark masks on their faces, and all of them had a lean temperament.

Kamiizumi set off with his squad members.

Feeling the abundant energy in his body, Kamiizumi felt that his current self was full of strength.

There is no doubt that his strength has increased a lot.

After absorbing a large amount of natural energy in the Wet Bone Forest, the Divine Tree in his body had grown tremendously.

The feedback brought by the Divine Tree made Shangquan Zongju now burst out with extremely terrifying power.

"Now I can be called a tailless beast!" Kamiizumi thought to himself.

He made a rough estimate that the chakra in his body should now be able to have a hundred standard units.

Comparable to Naruto Uzumaki + half a nine-tailed!

"This kind of strength is still insufficient for tailed beasts like the Nine-Tails, but against other tailed beasts, it's basically not a big problem!"

A few days later, the team arrived at the border of the Fire Country, which is adjacent to the Land of Rain.

The Land of Rain is a land of sorrow.

The never-ending rainy season has made the country unlivable, with food production so low that the people who live here are barely able to feed their families.

After a period of war, most of the country's people fled as refugees.

The main inflow of the kingdom is the land of fire.

Today, in the border area of the Fire Country, there are many citizens of the Land of Rain.

This makes the situation in this part of the border between the two countries extremely complicated.

Along with the refugees came a spike in crime.

Stealing, robbing, killing...... Endless.

In addition, there are many ninjas mixed in, which leads to various vicious incidents that often break out here.

After arriving here, the four of them changed their outfits to hide their identity as Konoha Shadow Ninjas.

Walking into a small town, you can see many simple sheds built haphazardly.

Inside, a family dressed in tatters was crowded.

Garbage is discarded on the streets, sewage flows sideways, and the sanitary environment is extremely poor.

The eyes of the people here are numb and indifferent.

When they saw outsiders, their eyes suddenly burst into greed and hostility.

Some of the slightly stronger youths even secretly picked up the rudimentary weapons in their hands, and their greedy eyes kept looking at the bulging bags on the four of Zongju.

"The people here are very unfriendly to us!" Hinata Iroha couldn't help but sigh.

"The environment alienates people and turns them from humans into beasts. If they live in a place of abundance and eat and drink without worry, then they will also become hospitable and kind people! Zong Ju said lightly.

Hearing his words, the three Kakashi had thoughtful looks on their faces at the same time.

They usually live in Konoha and are surrounded by kind and welcoming people.

But here, it suddenly changed to a different look.

Originally, the three Kakashi also felt that the completely different personalities of the people of Konoha and the refugees were due to the problems of folklore and upbringing.

But after listening to Zongju's words, they had different opinions.

"Poverty is the original sin of everything!" Zong Ju said lightly.

"Lord Zongju's perspective on problems is always very profound!" Akame Iwana couldn't help but sigh.

"After all, it's someone who has written such profound articles!" Hinata Iroha had a look of adoration in his eyes.

"So, how do you change that?" Kakashi, who had been silent, suddenly asked.

Soju looked at Kakashi in surprise.

This was the first time Kakashi had spoken along the way.

"How can these people change their painful and desperate fate?" Kakashi asked.

There was a serious look in his eyes.

"Change your fate? If the ninja world has always been so boring, they will never be able to change their fate! ”

"There will only be more and more people like them, not less!"

Zongju's words made Kakashi's heart feel heavy.

"If the ninja world doesn't change, can't their fate change? So, is it to change the ninja world? Kakashi thought to himself.

The environment changes people.

Kakashi thought of his father who committed suicide, was he also changed by circumstances?

"There's a ninja up ahead!" Hinata Iroha said suddenly.

The white of his eyes opened, the meridians around his eyes bulged, and the whole person became hideous.

"Let's take a look!"

The four of them immediately ran in that direction.

"Ninja-sama, my family really doesn't have any food in stock, please let us go!"

"Get out! Don't try to lie to me! Without food, you won't go to those rich people in the Fire Nation to beg? ”

"My lord, the people of the Fire Country have moved away, and we won't be able to eat for a long time, so please be merciful!"

"Less nonsense! Hand over the grain, or I'll send your son to meet that old ghost in your house!" ”

"Murano, don't talk nonsense!" A gentle voice rang out.

"Don't worry, we only kill the old people and not the children, but if you can't hand over the food, we will take your wife away!" The gentle voice said.

......

The four Zong Ju, who had just arrived here, immediately looked at each other when they heard this.

"It's a ninja from Rain Hidden Village!" Hinata Iroha said.

"Hanzo can't control his men anymore? Yuyin Village is in chaos like this? Zong Ju said softly.

"Captain, what do we do?"

"Put on your forehead guard and kill those guys!" Zong Ju said lightly.

"Bring a forehead guard? Captain, doesn't that reveal our identities? Akame Iwana was surprised.

"It is to let them know who we are, otherwise their companions will vent on innocent people!"

"However, if this is the case, will it cause international disputes!"

"These rain ninjas trespassed into the Land of Fire, and it makes sense for us to kill them."

"Besides, I'm afraid that the current Hanzo is too busy to take care of himself, and he will definitely not dare to provoke Konoha!" Zong Ju said lightly.

"Let's do it!" Zongju ordered.

While Hinata Iroha and Akame Iwana were still surprised, Kakashi had already pounced.

"Phew!"

The sound of kunai cutting through his skin rang out, and bright red blood shot out, and a rain ninja fell.

"Ah......h

Nearby, the Rain Country refugees screamed loudly in fright.

The other three rain ninjas were taken aback and shouted angrily: "What person? ”

"It's a Konoha ninja!"

"Damn, how did the Konoha ninja come here?"

......

Hearing this, Zong Ju was a little speechless.

This is the territory of the Fire Nation, and the Rain Ninja's question is ridiculous.

However, he also knew that the other party's surprise was not unreasonable.

Because of the war, Konoha has lost a large number of ninjas, and now the defense line on the border has long been full of holes.

Therefore, it is not surprising that these rain hidden ninjas are swaggering here.

Seeing that Kakashi had already made a move, the other two were not far behind and quickly rushed forward.
