Chapter 27 Showcase
Faced with Tsunade's eagerness, Genma firmly refused to gamble with drugs, citing an upcoming mission, and then ran away in a flash.
However, he soon reappeared on the wall and shouted at Tsunade, "Lady Tsunade, you must train hard while I'm not around, otherwise, even in your strongest area, you'll lose to me."
"Next time we come back, let's have a strength contest!"
They provoked us and then ran away; this time they really did run away.
Because Tsunade's roar shook the earth.
That brat is too arrogant!
How dare you claim to be stronger than yourself?
They are utterly ignorant and arrogant!
Tsunade was furious, her fists pounding. If Shizune hadn't been holding her back, she would have smashed the pillar with one punch.
"Damn it, when he gets back, we'll give him a good beating!"
Tsunade, holding a grudge, then said to Shizune, "Shizune, I'm giving you a task: observe him closely and write down all his information for me!"
Shizune blinked innocently: "Lady Tsunade, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
Tsunade snorted and said matter-of-factly, "That's a basic quality of a ninja."
"That's decided!"
……
Xuanma was unaware that he had a little spy by his side.
When I got home, I went into the bathroom, soaked in the bathtub, and then focused my attention on the [settings set].
This class assignment did not bring him any expected results.
In the original timeline, the Jonin who guided Yamashiro Aoba and Shizune was definitely not their teacher, Hatake Sakumo.
However, upon closer examination, it's possible that Sakumo Hatake, as the Jonin leading the team, could not change the fate of Aoba Yamashiro and Shizune.
Shizune is a medical ninja.
Yamashiro Aoba belongs to a small ninja clan and has its own unique traditions.
However, now that he has graduated and the Third Shinobi World War is just around the corner, Genma feels a huge wave of character settings galloping towards him.
First, there's the disappearance of the Third Kazekage. Is there any chance we could get involved?
should not.
Thinking of the Kazekage, Genma immediately thought of someone from Sunagakure.
Yekura, known for her stunningly beautiful back.
"Such a beautiful back, it's a shame not to get cupping done..."
"No, it's just that it would be a shame if they died."
Xuanma immediately corrected his own thoughts.
If we save Yekura and send her back to Sunagakure, will she be killed again, or will something interesting happen?
Can we get some more settings?
There are also the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist; if we have the chance, we should take them out first.
Xuanma secretly made his plans.
The next day.
At 9:00 AM, Team 9 assembled in front of the Hokage Building on time.
Sakumo Hatake had already accepted the mission before Genma and the others arrived, and once everyone was together, he gave the order: "Let's go!"
Everyone immediately used the Instantaneous Movement Technique to set off.
Xuanma's attire was different from yesterday's; he now wore a sleeveless vest-style steel armor with a large scroll hanging horizontally at his lower back.
Seeing Genma in his armor, Yamashiro Aoba couldn't help but say, "Genma, isn't dressing like that a bit too much?"
Xuanma chuckled: "It's a pity there isn't any armor that completely covers a person."
Ninjas are too fragile; he needs to protect himself well.
Despite his advanced medical skills, he was still afraid of pain!
"Wearing such heavy armor will affect your agility, but it might have less of an impact on you, Genma."
Yamashiro Aoba analyzed the situation carefully, then sighed, "Indeed, physical strength is the foundation."
"Genma, I really envy your stamina."
"Is it because you ate more?"
After thinking for a moment, Xuanma replied seriously, "Eating more is only one aspect. The most important thing is to have a balanced diet. Meat, vegetables, seafood, soy products... none of them can be missing. You also need to strengthen your exercise."
Of course, the most important factor is genetics.
Xuanma didn't say that.
He didn't inherit it; he's just lucky.
While the two were chatting, Shizune kept an eye on Genma, thinking to herself, "I should add an arm guard to protect my upper arm... I'll buy one for Genma after I get the commission from this mission."
Genma was actually wearing arm guards, but they only protected his forearms.
……
After leaving Konoha Village, Hatake Sakumo led the team into the forest before introducing the mission: "The target of this mission is a samurai named Igata Kaijin."
"He was originally under the command of a nobleman in the Daimyo Prefecture of the Land of Fire, but for some reason he killed that nobleman and fled, so the Daimyo Prefecture entrusted the village to put him on the wanted list."
"So don't underestimate him. Some samurai have mastered chakra, although the information from the Daimyo's office indicates that this Igata Kaijin has not mastered chakra."
"But intelligence indicates that this person is currently active in the border area between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain."
Yamashiro Aoba immediately asked, "So, teacher, is there anything special about that place?"
Genma continued, "It's probably because the situation in the Land of Rain is currently quite chaotic!"
Hatake Sakumo nodded.
Shizune asked curiously, "Teacher, didn't the Ninja World War end a long time ago?"
"Furthermore, the Land of Rain has a village called Amegakure, whose leader is a powerful figure known as a demigod."
Sakumo Hatake smiled and said, "You have a good grasp of Shizune's intelligence."
"However, the situation in the Land of Rain is more complicated."
He explained with a more solemn expression: "After Amegakure's defeat in the last war, Hanzo's power and prestige were damaged, and he could no longer control the situation in the entire Land of Rain."
"The impact of the war was far-reaching, and the Land of Rain has not yet recovered."
"In addition, the geographical location and the struggle between various forces have led to a chaotic situation in the Land of Rain. Various ninja organizations have emerged one after another, and there are many wanted criminals and rogue ninjas from various ninja villages operating there."
Shizune and Yamashiro Aoba suddenly realized.
Xuanma was already aware of this.
For Konoha, the war was considered to have ended completely in Konoha 41.
But for the Land of Rain, the war has never ended.
Hanzo revealed his enormous ambition during the last Shinobi World War, not to mention Kirigakure, which is far away overseas.
The four major ninja villages surrounding the Land of Rain would not allow Amegakure to become the sixth major ninja village.
Therefore, Amegakure, having failed in its external expansion, could only watch as the Land of Rain descended into chaos.
This is the consequence of defeat.
However, Sakumo Hatake naturally wouldn't explain the details to a few greenhorn kids.
But Yamashiro Aoba already understood: "So, this guy named Igata Kaito might have joined some organization?"
"They may even have mastered chakra."
Sakumo Hatake said, "Anything is possible."
"We currently have limited intelligence, so we will need to gather intelligence on the enemy. Everyone must be cautious and take this seriously."
This is a mission that could be upgraded to Rank B at any time, which is why Hatake Sakumo accepted this mission.
There is some danger, but not much.
The next two days were spent traveling.
On the morning of the third day, Genma and his party arrived at the western border of the Land of Fire.
The speed was so-so, because it was the first time leaving the village, so Hatake Sakumo deliberately slowed down.
Outside a border town, Hatake Sakumo, along with Genma and the other two, gazed at the mountain in the direction of the Land of Rain: "According to intelligence, the last place the target was seen was this town, so we speculate that the person is likely hiding in the mountains."
Yamashiro Aoba said, "The area is quite large. Should we split up the search?"
Just as Sakumo Hatake was about to nod, Genma spoke up first: "There's no need for that."
All three of them turned to look at him.
Yamashiro Aoba asked, "Should we use a clone?"
Xuanma nodded and then shook his head, then formed a hand seal.
bang bang bang~
Four shadow clones appeared, and then they leaped into the air, causing smoke to explode. Four eagles tore through the smoke and took flight, creating a whirlwind.
