After leaving the barbecue restaurant, Hyuga Yuzuru put on a mask and set foot on the road to the border with Uchiha Shisui.
This time, unlike the guerrilla battle between Kakashi and Kakashi, all parties cooperated, and when they left Konoha, an entire elite team set off collectively.
In addition to Hyuga Yuzuru and Uchiha Shisui, there are eight ANBU members, all of whom are elite ANBU members with unique skills. The entire team is well-organized and can handle almost any situation.
After simply exchanging code names with several ANBU, the group embarked on their journey in silence.
Along the way, Uchiha Shisui looked at Hinata Yuzuru from time to time and observed his condition.
After this conversation, Uchiha Shisui had a good impression of Hinata Yuzuru, his 'younger brother' who was the same age as Itachi.
Moreover, because of his mature appearance, he no longer regarded him as Itachi's peer, and valued Hinata Yuzuru more. At the same time, he unconsciously adjusted the other person from a junior worthy of attention to a 'friend' in his heart.
on the position.
Every time he thought about the atmosphere in the clan that was now like a barrel of dynamite due to Danzo's move to dispatch Konoha with a big wave of his hand, Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but feel exhausted physically and mentally.
Fortunately, this mission can leave the family and go to the border. During this period, I can be clean for a while.
When the bright moon rose and some Anbu began to breathe unevenly, the Anbu chose to repair on the spot.
"Rest where you are, and continue to set off after five hours. According to the formation before departure, take turns to repair."
After an ANBU wearing a deer-head mask gave the order, the ANBU ninjas spread out to repair themselves. Three of them were hiding while on guard, while the remaining three concentrated on recovering their physical strength and replenishing their spirits.
This time we set out for the border, a total of eight people were traveling together. Strictly speaking, these eight ANBU didn't even belong to the same group before, but now they are merged into one, unified under the command of one ANBU named 'Deer', and the other ANBU.
An ANBU named 'Daisy' serves as the vice-captain.
Uchiha Shisui once made an introduction.
These two veteran Anbu had formed a deep friendship with him during the three wars. They were powerful ninjas who could be trusted to support him and were trustworthy.
During the break, Uchiha Shisui appeared next to Hinata Yuzuru and asked with concern: "How are you doing? Can you still keep up?"
Even if he is a genius like Yuzuru, his body limits his physical strength and chakra capacity.
However, Hyuga Yuzuru just smiled slightly. With the "Return of Life" plug-in, he has an amazing battery life on this low-consumption run: "Don't worry, I always recover quickly. Long-distance running is my forte."
Uchiha Shisui looked him over, nodded and said: "You pay attention to rest, we don't need your Byakugan for the time being, and hurry up to conserve your energy. Your Byakugan will be very important to us when we are far away from Konoha."
Hinata Yuzuru nodded in agreement and was not pretentious. Since he had a chance to rest, he would not show off.
While refining chakra with his eyes closed, Hinata Yuzuru was very satisfied with the current growth rate of his chakra and physical fitness.
If nothing else goes wrong, with the current progress and the passive characteristics of life return, his growth amount in one year is equal to the progress of an ordinary person in two years. In another two or three years, he will have the chakra amount of an ordinary person in his teens.
constitution.
The only thing worth worrying about is that I am afraid that I may grow older in one year or two. When others look at it, they will say: "Is this eight years old?"
It's hard to have the best of both worlds.
Fortunately, I am a wall hanging person.
The rest time was quite short. Hinata Yuzuru just pondered for a while, rested half asleep for a while, and then it was time to set off again.
There is no doubt that traveling is quite boring, boring and boring.
Due to the special attributes of ANBU, they would not enter towns along the way. Instead, they would walk along small roads and in rarely visited places. Only when they were short of supplies would they use the transformation spell to enter towns to purchase supplies, just to get information.
It can be said that sleeping in the open air is quite tiring.
However, when everyone walked out of the border of the Country of Fire and arrived in the Country of Tang, the situation became different.
"According to intelligence, Yunyin Village is currently operating within the territory of Yuno Country. Our current task is to search for intelligence."
Lu observed everyone's situation and assigned tasks: "Daisy and I were grouped according to the established group and went to the direction of the Kingdom of Iron and the direction of the Frost Kingdom to explore intelligence. Uchiha Shisui, you and Hinata Yuzuru will act according to the original plan. Ten
Five days later, we will meet at the main city of Tang Country."
Uchiha Shisui and another ANBU with a petal pattern, Daisy, looked at each other and nodded, and the ANBU divided into three teams separated.
"Tianhu, come with me."
Uchiha Shisui led the way forward while briefing Hinata Yuzuru about the mission information: "Before departure, some ninjas operating in Yuno Country have already sent some information. Your and my goal is to verify it.
Is this information true?"
"First...here."
Uchiha Shisui took out the map, compared it for a moment, and tapped his finger lightly within the territory of Yuno Country: "This is a small town called Yutori, famous for hot springs, food, casinos and...
, we used the magic of transformation to disguise ourselves as businessmen from the Land of Fire to enter here."
He almost told information that shouldn't be told to children. Even though he thought Hinata Yuzuru was mature enough in his heart, it was still too early for certain things, right?
Uchiha Shisui completely forgot that he was still a child.
Yuatori is famous for selling gold. As a small country, it is still a small country between Kumogakure Village and Konoha. Its people are displaced and there are rebel ninjas, bounty hunters, and intelligence spies everywhere.
In such a chaotic environment, a town that is famous for its pleasures will naturally not be very clean.
"The task in Yutori is to verify the identity of a group of Kumogakure merchants - some Konoha ninjas passing by during the mission think that they may be Kumogakure ninjas disguised as businessmen. Observe with your white eyes.
You should be able to tell whether the other party is a ninja."
"There is no need to alert the snake, just determine the identity."
After listening to the mission briefing, Hinata Yuzuru nodded slightly: "Understood."
After judging the distance, Uchiha Shisui looked up and decisively gave the order: "Let's set off now. If we're lucky, we can arrive at Yutori before the hotel closes. Who knows, I'll be able to have a good night's sleep today.
You can take a bath in the hot springs.”
Shisui knew very well that long-term tasks cannot always be stressful. In fact, one must make full use of every possible opportunity to rest and relax in order to persevere in this long task that does not know when it will end.
"Okay." Hinata Yuzuru's eyes lit up.
To be honest, after listening to Uchiha Shisui's introduction, he became a little fond of Yuatori, a town he had never heard of.
"Are those ANBU okay?" Hyuga Yuzuru asked with concern - it's not that he was worried, but that the country of Yu had already become the main battlefield of Konoha and Kumogakure at this time, and the degree of danger should not be underestimated.
Uchiha Shisui just chuckled: "Don't underestimate my seniors... Lu and Daisy are the seniors I trusted very much during the Third War. Instead of worrying about them, it's better to worry about us."
Hinata Yuzuru nodded, but it could be heard from his tone that Uchiha Shisui seemed to have a good relationship with these two Anbu seniors.
The two set off immediately, one was Konoha's Shunshen Shisui, and the other was Kakebi, who had the Shunshen Jutsu that he had broken through twice. The two left the large army and took action, and their speed was more than half as fast.
Even Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but glance sideways because of his speed, and was surprised in his heart.
More than a year ago, he had a sparring match with Hyuga Yuzuru. At that time, Hinata Yuzuru had the fighting ability that an excellent Hyuga should have, but to be honest, that was all.
In this mission, he only paid attention to Hyuga Yuzuru's eyes and didn't take his combat ability into consideration too much.
But now it seems that his progress this year can be called a leap. If I remember correctly...
Didn’t I personally teach him his teleportation technique more than a year ago?
It only takes one year to practice to such an extent!?
What an incredible genius...
Shunshen Shisui, who is now only ten years old, to be precise, will soon be eleven years old, possesses the three Magatama Sharingan, and will soon possess the Mangekyō, thinks so.
