Ninja World: Insect Princess from Konoha

Chapter 214 Situation

Snow has accumulated a thick layer on the ground, and animals that have spent the winter hide in warm nests.

This winter is less noisy than usual, and the village is as lively as ever.

The children were chasing and playing in the snow, throwing snowballs at each other, yelling "Eat Me Yikunai", and playing ninja games as usual.

The busy adults are busy with their own lives, and the business in winter seems to be a little busier than usual.

The village guard ninjas are on their daily patrols, while some are idle.

Compared with the seemingly endless tasks on weekdays, winter is an off-season in comparison.

Throughout the year, it is rare to have time to relax and take a good rest.

The most lively places at this time are the gambling stalls and the izakaya.

Once again, it is Hot Spring Street.

If you have a girlfriend, you can also go to the movie theater or something.

But for most ninjas, drinking a glass of wine in winter is undoubtedly a comfortable thing, and this has to be kept from the tiger at home.

Single guys don't have this kind of trouble.

The ninjas in green vests gathered together to share and chat about interesting things they learned on weekdays.

I encountered a suspicious person while patrolling, and after checking, I found out that it was a misunderstanding.

When defeating and dispersing dangerous beasts, which rookie is unlucky and accidentally injured.

What happened to the security mission? The employer is fine.

This year I killed a few bandits again.

There are also out-of-home deliveries, letters, meals, and the like.

The tasks of ninjas are closely related to daily life. As long as you think of it, you can go to Ninja Village to entrust tasks.

As a result, seemingly impossible tasks are often encountered.

From sweeping the streets to clearing the sewers, from delivering food to chatting with you, everything is possible.

Therefore, ninjas are not as cool as they look.

As we chatted, the topic gradually became serious.

"The Arai next door seems to be dead."

A veteran said sadly.

There are the most ninjas like him in Konoha.

Has a wealth of experience, graduated at the age of 12, and has been in the industry for seven or eight years. He has experienced not many ninja encounters, but he has excellent combat qualities.

From repairing water pipes to screwing screws, going into fights and taking care of children, you can count everything, very comprehensive and excellent.

There is no particularly prominent advantage, and no particularly hip-pull weakness. Being an elite Chunin in the last sentence, after years of hard work, it can be regarded as having a family and a job.

This is the most prominent civilian middle class in Konoha.

Compared with the general Jonin class, what is lacking is only one particularly outstanding ability.

But not weak.

Even Junin, once two of them meet a class of four elite Chunin, their brains will buzz and they will be ready to die at any time.

Although jounin is different from jounin.

Many of them are veterans who retired from World War I.

Many have the strength of the ninja but have not been promoted to ninja.

The position of Jonin cannot be explained clearly in a few words.

The main reason is that the village is poor and cannot afford more jounin. The plate is so big that there are not enough mouths to eat.

Therefore, Jonin has always been the best of the best.

To sum it up, the five villages seem to have no sense of existence, and it is not easy to get along with them.

After more than ten years of recuperation, each village has accumulated a group of extremely rich family assets.

"It's not just Arai." Another ninja said, "Yuji next door is also dead."

Both Arai and Yuji are well-known ninjas in this circle.

To put it modestly, these two guys are not weaker than me, they are [-]/[-] with me, in a life-and-death battle, maybe I will die.

The village is so big, and there are tens of thousands of ninjas, and everyone knows them except for the newcomers who just joined.

But such guys are dead, that is to say, I will die too.

"A lot of people died this year." A ninja said while puffing out a cigarette, "A while ago I heard that a group of ninjas went on a mission and all died at sea, and none of the jonin who led the team escaped."

"You're only a teenager, it's so miserable." Another person echoed, "I heard that it was Kirigakure who moved it."

"Who else could it be? The country of the vortex?"

That being said, there is no proof of death.

Kirigakure has never responded, what else can Konoha do, can he fight?

"The next mission is to go to the country of water, and show some color to the fishermen on the water." A ninja said viciously: "We Konoha are not easy to mess with."

So, the friction will gradually escalate.

"The recent situation is not right, everyone calm down." A ninja seemed to be awake.

But what he said was just nonsense.

Form is not up to you.

"The situation is not right, too many people died." A young man, who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, said: "Compared with the missions of previous years, this year feels particularly dangerous. The escort mission I received last time , I felt like the Iwagakure ninja was crazy, almost died there, and finally the mission failed and the captain ordered us to retreat, what happened, recently."

In previous years, if the Konoha side received a guard mission like this, most of the missions on the other side were to assassinate Konoha's employer, and never entangled too much with Konoha's ninjas, so as not to damage the manpower.

It's not easy to train a ninja, all the money is spent, there's no need to work hard on such small issues, an assassination mission only pays a few dollars.

Anyway, the village has nothing to lose.

It's best if you can finish it, if you can't finish it, you will fall down!
As Omura, our reputation is guaranteed, and it's not because we haven't worked hard, but because Konoha is not easy to deal with.

It belongs to force majeure, and some are excuses to cover up the failure of the mission.

Don't worry about the reputation collapse caused by the failure of the task, there is no task to do.

Besides, this kind of task is not impossible to complete, without too much entanglement with the opponent's ninja, there are many cases of successful assassinations.

Therefore, on weekdays, there is some room for ninjas from various countries to fight each other, so that everyone can look good and meet each other in the future.

Once the task fails, retreat, never dragging its feet.

Nor will sudden benevolence help employers to do unnecessary things, such as overthrowing local bullies and dark forces.

The Ninja Villages of the Five Great Nations are not benevolent halls.

It is a mercenary organization that takes money to do things.

Normally, throughout the year, the five major powers fight abroad because of the missions, which seem to be extremely fierce, but not many people die, and they all maintain restraint.

Therefore, those who are unlucky are only people outside the five major countries, the typical example of which is the country of rain.

The special location makes it a battle zone for several ninjas, and it has been affected by ninja wars all year round, causing many casualties to civilians.

The ninjutsu released does not have eyes.

I can only admit that I am unlucky when I hit it.

Therefore, most other small countries in the same situation choose to lie flat.

Domestic nobles turned a blind eye to the actions of the five major powers.

You hit yours, just don't hit my house.

Another example is the country of the river. If you can't beat it, you join it. If you kneel and lick it, it's over.

The most special among them is the country of ghosts, the five major countries want to sell the face of their leader witch.

"I heard that Yan Yin can't afford to support the huge ninja group in the country." A ninja said in a deep voice.

"How many people? Can't afford it?" Another ninja asked.
