Chapter 56 Assassination of Naruto
On the other side, Yunting is still moving forward unhurriedly.
He planned to complete the journey from Konoha to the capital of Fire Nation in three days.
We were only halfway through the journey now. Although the strange things along the way made Yunting realize that there was a big storm waiting for him ahead, he still maintained his pace without caring.
When he passed a small village on the way, he even had time to clean up the nearby thieves' den, communicate with the local villagers, and seriously inquire about their living conditions.
Catching and killing some overestimated fish has never been the real purpose of Yunting's trip, and even visiting the daimyo was just a side purpose for him.
What he really cares about are these ordinary people who are usually ignored but occupy the entire subject.
Only through practice and a deep understanding of the foundation of a country can we truly see the true face of the country.
Yunting, who became the Hokage of Konoha Village early on, still has a greater pursuit.
Although the thoughts in his mind are still very vague at the moment, as he becomes more aware of this country and the ninja world, the thoughts in his mind are becoming more and more formed.
Now, this is undoubtedly what he is doing.
After just visiting, Yunting discovered that the Land of Fire has fertile soil and superior natural conditions. It stands to reason that the vast majority of civilians should live a good life.
It's a pity that not everywhere is Konoha.
The characteristics of aristocrats and bureaucrats are the same in every world.
The more affluent the area, the more desperate this group of people is to exploit it.
If the villagers of Konoha can still enjoy some crooked neck technology, then these civilians of the Fire Country are really just living in the backward feudal era.
The generation difference makes it impossible to imagine that these people live on the same continent.
Yunting sighed slightly.
Ritsuko Yamanaka, who was watching from the side, didn’t understand.
She couldn't figure out why the Hokage asked ordinary Fire Nation civilians so many trivial matters.
As Hokage, shouldn't we focus on ninjas, great nations, and even noble lords?
"What? Don't you understand the meaning of what I do?" Yunting glanced at the female secretary beside him and asked.
Ritsuko Yamanaka nodded sincerely.
"In this world, because of the existence of chakra, the resistance of the people at the bottom to their fate often ends in vain. Over time, the existence of the latter is also ignored by the powerful."
"But it must be clear that if a world wants to be less permanent than a backwater, and if it wants to develop towards a higher civilization, it cannot do without these people who they regard as ants."
"What's more, the so-called resistance has never ended. As long as the oppression remains and as long as the class fault line persists, it will always burn like a spark. Especially today with the new power of constantly developing technology.
Perhaps one day in the future, the so-called natural nobles and all the unreasonable systems will no longer be able to resist this torrent."
Based on his past life experience, Yun Ting feels deeply when he looks at this rather deformed world now.
Just seeing Ritsuko Yamanaka's confused expression, Yun Ting sighed slightly, his ideological enlightenment has not yet been reached.
He shook his head: "You won't understand even if I tell you now. Stay with me and watch more and think more. You will have new insights in the future."
Ritsuko Yamanaka nodded silently.
Although she didn't understand the true meaning of Yunting's words, she could clearly realize that the new Hokage she was loyal to was different from anyone she had ever seen before.
This uniqueness not only makes her feel no sense of alienation, but also makes her feel closer and closer.
Maybe this person will set off a completely different storm in the future.
Ritsuko Yamanaka's eyes were filled with a strange light.
As a secretary, all she can do is do everything in her power to meet the other party's requirements, and follow closely behind to witness this change with her own eyes!
......
Due to a lot of delays along the way, Yunting arrived much later than the people at the base expected.
During this period, a group of people, including Yun, felt very anxious.
After all, this is an assassination of an enemy leader in an enemy country. If you are not careful, the entire army will be wiped out before anyone is seen.
Even after the person at the root failed to see the target at the scheduled time, his face, which had been cold before, suddenly became uneasy.
After everyone waited in this suspicious mood for another hour, finally!
In the distance, the target person with the word "fire" on the bamboo hat finally appeared.
"The next step is up to you." The people at the root breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the people around them.
He needs to stay later to eliminate the traces of the sealing barrier without leaving any evidence.
One more person and one less person do not matter to Yun and others.
Wen Yanyun waved his hands indifferently, and then said to everyone with a serious face: "Everyone, let's act according to our previous plan."
The others nodded solemnly and solemnly.
"Then, let's start the hunt for Hokage!"
......
On the broad and straight road, only Yunting and Yamazaka Ritsuko walked alone on it.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Yunting let out a light sigh, raised his hand to slightly pull up the Hokage hat on his head, and revealed a pair of eyes looking ahead with a hint of solemnity.
Although he seems to be fine from the front, he is so powerful that he still trusts his sixth sense.
‘Has the feast finally arrived?’ He secretly asked in his heart.
Not long after, in less than three seconds, all the members of the Shadow Guard who had been secretly following him suddenly appeared on their own initiative and quickly came to him.
Among them, Hinata Tokuma said urgently as soon as he arrived: "Hokage-sama! Suddenly, a large number of ninjas came 200 meters ahead... Thirty-two people in total, and their chakra levels are all jounin standards!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone except Yunting suddenly changed.
Even a proud and belligerent person like Uchiha Aya couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness after Hyuga Tokuma revealed the number and strength of her enemies.
Only Yunting, while marveling at the generosity, paid more attention to the fact that Hyuga Tokuma's Byakugan failed to detect the enemy's ambush in advance.
Some kind of secret technique that can hide one's figure?
No! Even with this secret technique, it is impossible to cover more than thirty people at once.
The only exception is sealing barriers and the like.
Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Yunting's eyes.
"Lord Hokage, do you want to retreat temporarily?" At this time, Baiyun Yeshan asked Yuntingdao solemnly.
More than 30 jounin teamed up, and judging from the paper's strength, even those with five-kage level strength have to avoid the edge temporarily.
Ninjas are not samurai, and they have no shame in retreating without a fight.
So Baiyun Yeshan didn't mean to offend the Hokage at all when he said this.
Even the extremely proud Uchiha Aya has no objection at this moment.
In response, Yunting calmly shook his head and said: "No need, you just need to protect yourselves from now on."
"Yes."
Baiyunye Mountain, I have seen you for a long time, Hinata Tokuma and even Ritsuko in the mountain no longer tried to persuade me after hearing this.
As people who have followed Yunting all the way, they have great trust in this young Hokage.
However, Uchiha Aya, who joined halfway, looked at Yunting with a hint of doubt.
Since the Hokage will not retreat, then as a proud Uchiha, she will naturally not retreat either.
But is the reason why this Hokage is like this because he is completely sure?
Is it because of Mudun?
