Konoha owes Uchiha a Hokage

In a small valley about fifty miles away from the border between Konoha and Kirigakure, Kai was leaning against a tree, panting rapidly, and his whole body was in a state of wretchedness.

Fortunately, there were no obvious injuries on his body.

On the other two big trees not far away from him, Shiranui Genma and Ebisu were in a similar situation to Kai, even more embarrassed.

While panting and looking at the positions of his two companions, Kai felt full of regret.

After Uchiha Yu left to perform the mission alone, although the three fledglings enjoyed the pleasure of quickly improving their strength after Uchiha Yu taught them, they were even more curious about the battlefield they had never been exposed to.

Especially since Uchiha Yu was away and no one restrained them, this curiosity gradually turned into impulse, and then into action.

Shiranui Genma and Ebisu both proposed the idea of ​​going to the battlefield to take a look.

Although Kai is passionate, he is never blindly confident, nor does he want to play with his own life.

But he couldn't persuade his two teammates, and he didn't have the ability to force them to obey. In desperation, he could only grit his teeth and follow.

No matter what, becoming a teammate is a lifelong bond. How can you give up this bond so easily?

If Uchihaha found out, he would definitely be laughed at.

So, on a dark and windy night, they walked out of the camp on the pretext of practicing, and then secretly headed to one of the battlefields.

Their idea was to take a look while there was probably no fighting. There shouldn't be any danger.

This was one of the reasons why Kai agreed.

However, they obviously underestimated the dangers on the battlefield

The border between Konoha and Kirigakure is relatively peaceful among several other neighboring countries.

After all, Kirigakure didn't have much capital to participate in this war.

Konoha is fighting on multiple fronts at the same time, and the personnel are far from enough. In addition, the leader Orochimaru has been inexplicably weak in fighting recently, and there is also no fighting spirit.

As a result, although there was small-scale friction on the border between Konoha and Kirigakure, it was far from the level of a war.

However, any battle between ninjas is never simple.

No matter what the reason is, once you go to the battlefield and get into hands with the enemy, it is basically difficult to end it easily.

The three stupid green men obviously had no experience, so they just plunged into one of Kirigakure's post-war temporary camps.

Although the three tried their best to explain, Kirigakure, who had just experienced a battle, would not believe anything they said and launched the attack without hesitation.

Fortunately, this group of Kirigakure ninjas had just experienced a battle not long ago. They were relatively short of supplies, physical strength, and chakra. Although the three genin were inevitably ravaged by one side, with sufficient physical strength and this Their progress over time allowed them to escape from the opponent's attack without even paying a high price.

However, these Kirigakure ninjas obviously didn't want to let them go so easily.

Just now, they got rid of a group of pursuing ninjas and finally stopped to rest for a while.

However, this is not something to be happy about.

As time goes by, the supplies of the Kirigakure ninjas may not be replenished in time, but their physical strength and chakra can be restored.

At that time, they will face the pursuit of a large number of Kirigakure ninjas who have restored their combat effectiveness.

"Hey, I should have known better that I shouldn't have been so impulsive. After all, we are not Yu, we are just three genin."

Ebisu leaned against a thick tree trunk, panting, stuffing a soldier food pill into his mouth, and couldn't help but sigh.

Uchiha Ha's achievements made this group of children his age envious, but at the same time they were full of dissatisfaction. They felt that they might do better than Uchiha Ha.

So much so that they don't actually have a clear understanding of their own strength. Just seeing how powerful Uchiha Yu is, they naturally feel that they are at least not that bad.

As a result, I couldn't help but feel a sense of comparison.

This secret action was also an idea to try out my abilities and see if I could achieve the same achievements as Uchiha Yu.

However, reality gave them a cruel slap, instantly shattering their pride.

"What's the use of talking about this now? We should find a way to return to the camp quickly. With those seniors here, Kirigakure can't do anything to us."

Shiranui Genma also frowned, but he was stronger and did not make the atmosphere even lower at this time.

"I'm afraid we won't be able to get back to the camp in time, but Kirigakure's ninjas will catch up with us."

Kai felt very pessimistic.

He was shot even though he was lying down, but he didn't blame anyone. However, he felt worried about the situation he was facing.

Fifty miles away is nothing to ninjas, but they are facing the pursuit of at least two teams of Kirigakure ninjas, including at least two jounin.

They had tried, but even if they were running out of ammunition and food, they were far from being able to defeat the three newbies.

"Kai, don't be so pessimistic, we will definitely be able to escape successfully."

Seeing that the always hot-blooded Kai was acting like this, Shiranui Genma quickly offered words of comfort.

At this time, I was afraid that I would give up hope before the enemy came to the door.

Otherwise, there is only a dead end

"Forget it, if they catch up, you run away immediately. I stay to hold them back. Even if I die, I will try my best to delay time for you."

Kai shook his head and gritted his teeth firmly.

Among the three, currently, his strength is the worst.

Taijutsu ninjas require extremely strong physical fitness. However, Kai was only twelve or thirteen years old at this time, and his body was far from reaching its peak development, so he could not show off the power of his taijutsu.

Feeling that he was not strong enough, he felt that he had little hope of escaping, so he wanted to sacrifice himself to buy precious escape time for his two companions.

"Kai, there's no need for this. We only have hope if we escape together. You can't delay much at all, you'll just die in vain."

Shiranui Genma was startled and quickly tried to dissuade him.

They all learned how to stop enemies when escaping in ninja school.

Although it can often play a role in protecting teammates, the person who stays to stop the enemy will undoubtedly die.

Of course he didn't want Kai to stay to stop the enemy.

"Yes, Kai, we came out together, and we have to go back together, otherwise how can we explain to Yu."

Ebisu felt more moved.

In fact, few people in the class looked up to Kai, but when faced with danger, Kai was able to stand up and make such a choice.

He himself could not make up his mind to do such a thing, and Kai made him feel touched and admired.

"Tsk, tsk, what a touching scene."
