Go to Naruto World as a Earth Shadow

Chapter 42 The Mission Without Progress

The fifth team left the Land of Earth to do a mission for the first time, knowing that the cruel three little ones in the ninja world are more nervous than novelty.

After leaving the border of Fire Country and entering Taki Country, Squad [-] became silent.Without Huang Tu's explanation, the three of them unknowingly began to communicate with gestures.

When traveling in the country of Taki, he was also cautious and resolute not to go out at night.

They don't live in hotels, let alone enter towns, and only purchase supplies in some relatively remote villages.

This monotonous and tense rush continued until he entered the underground black market of Tanokuni.According to the records of the intelligence personnel in the mission, several people found the information left by the other party in a tree hole.

After the four of them read the information in turn, Huang Tu signaled Yichen to analyze the information.

Having not spoken for many days, Yichen was a little uncomfortable, coughed lightly, and said: "So far, the intelligence personnel have not updated the information. If the accident of the intelligence personnel is not taken into account, it means that Qingyan has not returned to the underground. Bounty house."

"Then there are two possibilities. One is that the mission Qingyan chose is not limited to the mission within Tian Zhiguo, but a transnational mission. He does not need to come back to deliver the mission. The second is that he has not completed the mission yet."

After scanning the three people around, Yichen continued: "If it is the first situation, we will have nothing to do."

"If it's the second case, we need to wait and search around here, but it's too close to the underground bounty, and there will be a lot of wandering ninjas coming and going."

"If we check the ninjas coming and going here one by one, then we will inevitably have conflicts with these ninjas. Regardless of the outcome of the conflict, our mission will definitely fail."

"So for the sake of safety, we can only choose a route that Qingyan may pass to ambush. But if we do this, the success rate of the mission will be very low."

After speaking, Yichen looked at the other three.

The three of Huangtu also had no good solution.

Tian Nai comforted: "Qingyan is just a Chunin, and it is unlikely that he will take on large-scale transnational missions. The chances of us guarding him are not small."

Both Yichen and Shinohara nodded in agreement.

Yichen continued: "When Qingyan left the underground bounty house, he walked to the northeast. Let's investigate the terrain in the northeast first. Then decide the ambush location according to the terrain."

The three nodded, and then stopped talking. After resting on the spot for a while, the four formed a search formation and headed northeast.

Because they didn't dare to be too ostentatious, the investigation speed of the four people in the fifth squad was relatively slow, and it took half a day to complete the investigation of a large area in the northeast of the black market.

In the end, the four members of the fifth squad chose a small hillside to ambush.

In this position, Yichen's perception ninjutsu can detect pedestrians several kilometers away.

And the northeast of this hillside is a flat land, and the four of them can see the pedestrians leading to the black market from a distance.

After selecting the location, Huang Tu, Tian Nai, and Shinohara took turns on duty and began to observe the movement in the distance.

Whenever the person on duty sees movement in the distance, he will notify Yichen.

Then, when the other party passed by on the road a few kilometers away from the hillside, Yichen would perform sensory ninjutsu to judge whether the other party had Jōnin. If not, the four of them would move closer to observe.

In this way, the fifth class waited on this hillside for five consecutive days.

During these five days, the four met three or four hundred groups of pedestrians. The number of pedestrians varied from one or two to several hundred.

During Yichen's investigation, there were at least twelve ninjas among these people whose chakra levels had reached the Jōnin level, and Class [-] would avoid them every time.

The number of ninjas at the zhongnin level is as many as hundreds, but there are fewer ninjas at the zhongnin level.

This completely overturned Yichen's perception of small countries.It turns out that there are so many ninjas active in these small countries, the ninja world is really dangerous.

In five days, hundreds of perceptual ninjutsu performances made Yichen a little tired, but fortunately, each time it could be over with a little perceptual perception, so the consumption of chakra was not much.

It's just that it consumes a lot of mental power. Fortunately, this aspect is Yichen's specialty, and it didn't cause any harm to Yichen.

According to the plan, Yichen and others will continue to wait like this for ten days. If no trace of Qingyan is found within ten days, the fifth class will choose to give up the mission and return.

But while waiting today, Tian Nai found a group of three people coming from the northeast.

As usual, Yichen, who was notified, performed perception ninjutsu after the three of them entered the range of perception.

After these days of perception, Yichen has a good ability to distinguish the ninja's chakra.

A ninja who has never practiced chakra nature changes gives Yichen a mild feeling.

As for other ninjas who have learned various attribute changes, their chakras give Yichen different feelings.

After summarizing, Yichen came to a conclusion: water attribute has a soft feeling, fire attribute is warm, earth attribute feels heavy, thunder attribute makes people slightly numb, and wind attribute is a bit tingling.

If you learn to change multiple attributes like loess, you will have many different feelings in perception.

But in Yichen's perception this time, a ninja who is clearly a top ninja has dual attributes of water and wind, and a ninja with a middle and lower ninja has no attributes, but the chakra of the remaining ninja gave Yichen a very cold feeling.

This made Yichen couldn't help but check a few more times.But at this moment, an accident happened, the ninja who was walking suddenly stopped, and Chakra began to mobilize as if he had noticed something.

Yichen was shocked, knowing that there was trouble, Yichen came back to his senses with a clear mind, and immediately greeted the three of Huangtu and said, "I have been discovered, retreat to the trap area, and talk while walking."

The other three did not hesitate, and immediately got up and rushed to the trap area prepared in advance.

On the road, Yichen reported the situation: "Three ninjas, one is a top ninja with dual attributes of water and wind, and the water attribute is the main one. One is a physical ninja of the middle and lower ninja level. One is of the middle and lower ninja level... the ice escape blood successor ninja."

Yichen made a judgment on that kind of cold Chakra, Bingdun.

The three of them all looked serious when they heard the words, one Jōnin would be troublesome enough, and with the addition of a Blood Successor Ninja, the opponent's strength was already higher than their own.

Now that the fifth squad took the initiative to investigate the opponent, it could already be counted as a provocation.

If the other party is not very cautious and follows up, then today's level will not be easy to pass.

Afraid of what to come, Huang Tu said: "The other party has already followed."

The three of Yichen trembled, and they speeded up one after another. In a blink of an eye, the four of them entered the pre-set ambush circle, hid themselves as planned, and prepared to fight.

There is no reasoning among ninjas, and conflicts are fighting.Ninjas generally attack high and defend low. If one side keeps their hands and wants to be reasonable, but the other side is deadly, then the result is not difficult to predict.

So gradually ninjas formed a special way of getting along, try not to make contact after meeting, once contact, it is basically a fight to the death.

Therefore, although the three of Yichen belonged to the party who took the initiative to cause trouble, they did not conduct a coquettish operation of reasoning and explaining to resolve misunderstandings.

After carrying out ambushes at their respective locations as planned, the dense forest where the fifth squad is located became abnormally quiet.

The three chasing them were also very experienced. After standing still outside the trap area, the three hesitated and did not enter rashly.

The leader of the ninja said to the ice escape ninja who discovered Yichen's perception: "Mizunatsuki, do you have a sense of what level the ninja is, and can you make an accurate judgment?"

Minazuki was a little uncertain, and said hesitantly: "Captain Xiaosu, the opponent should be a zhongnin or a special jnin. The opponent feels very special to me, but he doesn't feel very strong."

Kosu Imamura asked the remaining female ninja, "Oda, what do you think?"

Kono Oda thought for a while, and said: "I can't confirm the composition of the other party, but from the footprints, it should be four people. An adult ninja has three children, and the three children should be one or two years younger than me and mirror."

"The other party should have stayed here for a long time, and they should be on a mission. It is estimated that they met us by accident."

"If the sentient ninja is a strong zhongnin, then there is a high probability that the other party will have one zhongnin with three lower ninjas. But Kagami said that the other party doesn't feel very strong, so I doubt that the other party will have a jounin captain."

Imamura Xiaosu was a little dignified, and he didn't want to confront a Jonin who didn't know the details.

After a moment of silence, he asked Minazuki again: "Has your identity as a Blood Successor Ninja been exposed?"

Minazuki Kageo thought for a while, nodded and said, "It should have been exposed. The other party had obvious hesitation after sensing my chakra, so I must have exposed it."

"Then, let's fight." Imamura Xiaosu made up his mind.

This mission hasn't started yet, if Yichen and his party are left alone, once the identity of Xueji ninja gets out, it will be dangerous next time.

But Imamura Xiaosu would not be reconciled if he just gave up on the mission like this.

After debating for a while, Xiaosu Imamura decided to fight, feeling a little regretful, knowing that he should have made up the missing team members before the mission.

However, Xiaosu Imamura was a Jōnin after all. After making up his mind, he didn't hesitate to strike. He directly formed seals with both hands, and quickly cast a B-level large-scale water escape ninjutsu towards the trap area.

A water dragon with a length of more than 30 meters rushed into the trap area and wreaked havoc everywhere without any rules.

Looking at the traps that were triggered everywhere after the water dragon passed by, but no enemy appeared until the water dragon dissipated, the three of Imamura Xiaosu looked a little dignified.

Their team performed a lot more tasks than the fifth squad, and there were also casualties of their companions, so they had more experience than Yichen and the others.

Seeing that Imamura Kosu's ninjutsu did not force the enemy out, Minzuki Kage and Kono Oda did not relax at all, but increased their vigilance.

When Class [-] set up the traps, they considered that the other party might use ninjutsu to wash the ground.

Therefore, the trap is divided into two parts, one part is on the surface and the other part is underground, so that all traps can be destroyed by avoiding a large-scale ninjutsu.

The four members of the fifth squad all hid in the holes dug in advance and successfully avoided the attack of the water dragon.

At this time, Yichen had already used sensory ninjutsu, and began to lock the three opponents with sensory ninjutsu.

At the same time, Minazuki mirror immediately warned again: "Be careful, the other party's perception ninja is perceiving us again, and our every move should be under the other party's perception."

Kosu Imamura looked ahead with his eyes and said, "Can you confirm the opponent's location?"

Mizunazuki shook her head and said, "There's no way, the opponent's mental power seems to be very strong. If it wasn't because of my blood succession limit, which improves the perception of Chakra, I wouldn't be able to find the opponent."
