After a long journey, Mikawa Squadron finally escorted the cargo to the Country of Grass safely and smoothly.
Moreover, the time calculation was just right, and all the supplies brought were consumed.
Mikawa's experience and sophistication really make Qingyu and others admire him!
Even the person in charge of the caravan, who initially had other goals, could not hide his excitement, because they only needed to pass through the middle country of Takino to successfully reach the Iron Country and deliver the goods.
And they no longer need to camp out in the wild!
Even if all the supplies are used up, it doesn't matter. In a civilized country, are you still afraid that you won't be able to buy food if you have money?
And they are not very afraid of being spotted after revealing their wealth. After all, they invited people from Konoha to escort them to prevent this.
"Lord Mikawa, do you think we should rest here for a day before setting off tomorrow?" the person in charge of the caravan asked with some flattery.
Logically speaking, we have already entered the Kingdom of Grass, so we don't care about wasting another day or two.
Mikawa originally wanted everyone to rest here for a day, but for some reason, since entering the Country of Grass, his heartbeat began to accelerate, as if there was some huge danger hidden in the secret, and he had to pay attention!
Although his intuition sometimes fails, it is his keen sense of danger that allows him to escape from desperate situations time and time again.
Of course, there are many times when it turns out to be a false alarm.
But for the sake of safety, he decided to pass through the Country of Grass quickly and wait until he got to the Country of Taki before making any plans. If it was still so unsettling, he would definitely choose to drive all night without rest and go directly to the Country of Iron!
So Mikawa said very seriously, "No, you immediately send someone to purchase supplies, just enough for a few days. We will leave for Takino Country immediately. I feel very bad here."
Because intuition cannot be used as a reason to convince others, Mikawa simply gave a subtle hint that he was the leader of this mission anyway. The representative of the Country of Tea gave him great rights before traveling, so he proposed
One request is to deliver this batch of goods safely to the Kingdom of Iron.
So he is not afraid that the other party will not agree with his point of view.
This was indeed the case. Although the caravan leader was quite dissatisfied, at Mikawa's insistence, he still took the people to purchase with a wry smile.
And even if you come here, you have to make sure everyone has something warm to eat.
Regarding this kind of request, Mikawa couldn't be more unkind, but if he was alone, he would definitely choose to leave the Country of Grass immediately.
"I hope I'm overthinking this time."
Mikawa sighed in his heart, hesitated for a moment, just told Qingyu and the others to be careful as usual, and then waited impatiently.
At the same time, the Kumogakure ninjas who had sneaked into the Land of Grass early discovered the figures of Konoha ninjas escorting a large number of supplies almost immediately.
And quickly passed the information through the psychic beast, reporting the news to the frontline Kumogakure executives!
When the top brass of Kumogakure learned that there were indeed Konoha ninjas secretly transporting something to the Kingdom of Iron according to the route they had obtained previously, their expressions instantly turned ugly.
Although there is still no way to know what this batch of goods is?
Or is it just a cover?
They all have to take action!
Although the intelligence said that there were only four Konoha ninjas escorting this shipment, including three imps.
But no one can guarantee whether there will be an ambush secretly.
I would rather kill the wrong person than let him go!
Konoha ninja must die!
No matter what this batch of goods is, Yunyin has to order it!
So the backup plan that had been prepared in advance immediately began to act according to the orders received!
A large number of Kumogakure ninjas hiding in the country of Taki next door began to set up an encirclement. At the same time, the Kumogakure ninjas who sneaked into the Country of Iron were quietly collecting intelligence everywhere, trying to find Konoha's contact person!
If they find it, it will definitely be a big fish!
Maybe it might even be possible to break this stalemate in the war!
One side is well prepared, and if it doesn't move, it will use force, and if it moves, it will sweep through with thunderous momentum to form a sure-kill situation.
But the other party didn't know anything yet, and just relied on intuition to sense the danger.
If there are no unexpected factors, Mikawa class may be doomed this time
More than two hours later, it was already past three in the afternoon.
The caravan leader finished purchasing supplies, and everyone else also enjoyed a rare warm meal.
But after hearing the news that they had to continue their journey, the people in the Country of Tea were very dissatisfied and complained a lot.
So the departure time was delayed again.
At this time, the Kumogakure ninja who had been secretly eyeing them was also a little anxious.
"What should we do? It seems that the other party is not planning to rest here and is planning to leave the Country of Grass overnight."
"I am now beginning to believe that the supplies escorted by these Konoha ninjas must not be simple, otherwise why would they be so urgent?"
"You don't have to tell me? Maybe there are many Konoha ninjas hiding in the dark."
"Several adults are setting up an encirclement. If they are allowed to continue on their way, they are likely to run into our people. If this is another trap deliberately lured by Konoha, our people may suffer big losses!"
"Then what do you think we should do?"
The other person gritted his teeth and said with firm eyes, "It's time to repay the cultivation of these adults. We pretend to be rogue ninjas and attack directly! We must drag them here to lure out the enemy in the dark!"
After hearing this, the people around him were silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "You are right, just do it!"
What they mean by this is that they are obviously not planning to go back alive, but as long as they can buy a certain amount of time and detonate the secret 'landmines', then their sacrifices will not be in vain!
Death is just the destination of ninjas!
They had already had this awareness from the day they set foot on the battlefield!
So the Kumogakure ninjas who were originally lurking in the Country of Grass immediately formed a consensus after receiving the contact.
Kill the Konoha ninjas on the surface, and then lure out the enemies hidden in the dark in advance!
And just when the person in charge of the caravan finally calmed down the others, regrouped and prepared to continue on their way.
Mikawa's heartbeat, which was already very fast, accelerated again!
And he also noticed that some unknown strangers were gradually approaching them
not good!
Being targeted!
At this time, Mikawa only thought that this batch of goods was being targeted, and did not think of Yunyin at all.
He immediately and quietly winked at Qingyu and the others.
Not only him, but Qingyu and others also felt the chilling air filling the air, so they immediately understood and prepared to take action at any time!
