Naruto's Will of the Earth

"Siben, it's time to abandon ship." Uehara felt the ship's speed getting slower and slower, and finally gave the order to abandon ship.

After traveling at full speed without stopping for two days and nights, the already strong-supported hull finally could no longer bear it. Now the bow of the ship was flooded with water and it sank, making it impossible to continue on its journey.

Siben looked at the map, then looked at the surrounding terrain and compared it carefully. He nodded and said, "It's a little faster than I expected. We are already close to the middle reaches."

After receiving the order, everyone took their belongings and moved chakra with their feet. They lined up to leave the boat one by one, walked on the water to the river bank, and then rested on the river bank.

After everyone left, Uehara looked at the cargo ship, which was getting more and more waterlogged because no one was draining it. The entire hull slowly capsized and finally sank into the water. The purchase price of more than Konoha coins was the largest amount of money that Uehara had ever seen in his previous life, including now. However, after only two days of use, it was all wasted. The corner of Uehara's mouth twitched and he felt a burst of physical pain.

"Everyone, don't stop, don't go near the river bank to light a fire." Uehara stopped Aikawa's class who was trying to light a fire to cook on the river bank, and led everyone deep into the jungle.

The lunch could not be said to be sumptuous. A group of people had worked hard for two days and no longer cared about the taste. They all devoured their food. Uehara wanted to stop him. He remembered the experience that Toya taught him, but he saw that everyone, including himself, was doing the same. , and gave up the idea of ​​​​preaching. ..

"Xi, are you feeling better?" Xi from Spider Pill's class, his injury did not improve after Yazi experimented with more than a dozen medicines, so he had to accept Nakamura's suggestion and underwent surgery in that small town. This is the first time that Yaozi and Nakamura have performed such a difficult amputation surgery, so it is quite difficult. Fortunately, as a cargo turnover center, Shinano Town has enough medicinal materials. With all kinds of medicines being used for free regardless of the cost, this guy finally woke up the night before everyone left by boat.

"Much better, squad leader Uehara." Xi was eating a large bowl as big as a person's head, enjoying the meal. Uehara saw that he had a good appetite and was relieved. Since he had an appetite, it meant that he should be recovering well.

"That's good." Uehara nodded, "Xi, I bought you honey or something, use it as snacks, it will help you recover sooner, why are you hiding it?" Uehara looked at Xi with dissatisfaction, blaming him for not Heed the warning. Due to limited conditions, Uehara searched the entire town and could only find this kind of nutritional product, so he bought a large amount of honey as a necessity and took it with him on the road.

"Hehe, monitor Uehara, I think everyone also needs to eat honey as a snack. It's too luxurious. Xi scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed."

"You don't have to worry about it. I've already considered it. Yazi and the others have a lot of them. That's right. The medicine you take isn't bitter, right? They added honey to your medicine." Speaking of honey, Uehara couldn't help but His mouth was full of salted fish, mushrooms and wild vegetable soup all day long, and he felt like a bird in his mouth. He decided that when he had time in the future, he would definitely buy a large vat of honey, soak it in water for drinking, soak it for meals, and also use it for cooking. Honey

"Fat man, you have to watch the rhinoceros and make sure he eats all the honey. If he doesn't eat, open his mouth and pour it in as hard as you can." Uehara's funny words immediately caused everyone to laugh. Flashdance..

"Squad leader Uehara, no need for Wutong, I will definitely obey your orders, but you always trouble Wutong to carry me on his back." Xi said with an embarrassed look after being teased in good faith by everyone.

"Alright, alright, Xi, this is what Wutong of Zuo Yi's family should do. I am the strongest among all the people." The fat man said and curled up his arms hard, showing off his non-existent biceps. , making everyone laugh again.

"Okay, everyone, stop making trouble and continue eating." Uehara stopped everyone's play. He had to rush on his way in a while, so it wouldn't be good to waste too much time.

"Hey, Spider-Man, why don't you say anything?" Uehara was eating. When he saw Spider-Man next to him with his head down and staring at his rice bowl without speaking, he touched him with his shoulder.

"Ah what?" Spider Pill looked up drowsily and rubbed his eyes. He didn't hear anyone calling him. He thought he heard wrongly, so he grabbed the chopsticks and started to eat the food quickly.

"Did you just fall asleep?" Uehara looked at Spider Maru who was working hard and was a little worried for him. Many of the companions were so weak that they might be swept to the ground by unnoticed branches when walking through the woods. Yaozi also dealt with a similar accident just now. The companions are not strong enough, so the reconnaissance and surveillance tasks are almost entirely placed on Spider Maru, Sasaki, Samoto, Fuuga and other limited people.

"I seem to have fallen asleep," Spider Maru was concentrating on eating. He didn't have time to talk to Uehara and responded to him casually, "But don't worry, I just want to rest for a while."

"Spider Maru, don't rush to do everything by yourself. The three classes assigned to you are for you to rotate. They are your companions. You have to trust them." Uehara patted his head and taught Spider Maru a lesson.

"Uehara, you put it lightly." Spider Maru muttered dissatisfied, "The guy who fell from the tree is from our three classes. He has exhausted his chakra. The tree is so high and there are so many on the ground. Zhizhichacha, this time it is just luck, but next time it may not be the case." After finishing speaking, Spider Ball looked at Uehara with contempt, "Only a guy like you who is not responsible for investigation can say it so easily, everyone's safety is in danger. It’s all on us, and we are working hard to complete the task.”

"Hey Spider Maru, why are you talking? My job is not easy either. What you said makes me seem to be lazy on purpose?" Uehara was dissatisfied and grabbed Spider Maru and asked him to speak clearly.

"I know" Spider Maru angrily pulled the clothes that Uehara was holding over him, "Everyone's tasks are equally important. But like you said, you should trust me when you leave the investigation mission to me. I will take time to rest. , maintain combat effectiveness."

At the end, he muttered in a low voice, "Even if I, Spider Maru, are asleep, I can crush two Konoha ninjas to death with my eyes closed." The voice was so quiet that Uehara, who was so close, couldn't hear it. Hearing Spider Maru's vague words, Uehara thought he was scolding the rice ball for having too much sand in it.

Uehara finished eating quickly and ignored Spider Pill. He had to take the time to review all the classes. For example, he had to control whether everyone's physical strength was still sufficient, whether the equipment was missing, and whether the water they carried was sufficient. situation so that he can arrange his next trip.

On the river behind where Uehara's shipwreck was, a light boat was riding the wind and waves. The boatman on the boat was shouting slogans, sweating profusely and moving the oars. The streamlined hull cut through the water like a blade, flying like a knife. Going forward, at their speed, they would be able to catch up with Uehara and the others in only half a day at most.

Konoha's pursuers were almost here.

Not to mention Konoha, Uehara and other one hundred and nine people had a quick lunch at noon. After everyone rested for an hour, they hurriedly hit the road again. They were still a long way from the Land of Earth.
