Playing as Passerby A from Naruto

the next day.

According to the agreed time, Shiyuan came to the location agreed with Kakashi and the others.

Far away, he saw a figure doing push-ups under the tree at the agreed position.

Shiyuan's outfit at this time already resembled that of an ANBU, except for the fact that he still lacked a mask on his face.

"Kai!" He greeted aloud, and then continued to drink the soy milk in his hand.

Kai, who was doing some exercise, immediately looked up and was shocked.

"Shiyuan, you're here."

With a silly smile on his face, Kai stopped moving and leaned over.

"Isn't Kakashi here yet?"

Shi Yuan looked around and saw no one else.

"I haven't seen it yet. Kakashi always likes to be late. I'm used to it. Shiyuan, you have to get used to working with Kakashi in the future."

Gai complained about Kakashi, then took a bunch of fish balls from Shigen and put it in his mouth.

"Hey, Kai! It's not a good habit to speak ill of people behind their backs, and I'm not late today."

Kakashi's voice sounded.

Shiyuan looked behind Kai and saw Kakashi already there looking at the two of them.

"Ahaha, Kakashi, you're actually here."

Kai touched his head and showed a embarrassed expression.

"Now that everyone is ready, let's set off."

"it is good."

Shi Yuan quickly emptied the breakfast in his hand.

The three of them wore the same dark robes and ran towards the outside of the village.

At this time, there were very few people on the street, and they deliberately avoided the eyes of many people.

Before arriving at the door, Kakashi motioned to the other two people to put on their masks, and then came to the security team at the door and showed the third generation's warrant.

As a result, the three people quickly left without registering.

in silence.

The three members of the team had no communication since they came out of the village. Kakashi led the way, while Tokiyuan and Kai followed closely.

About half an hour later, the three members of the team finally stopped at a location far away from the village.

"According to the information, the Kumogakure mission is still in Tang Country. We are going there in advance to make preparations."

Kakashi spread out the map and pointed on it.

"Baswood City is in this location, and our task is to protect the other party's safety during this period, but we don't need to interact with them. This is just a spontaneous behavior of our Konoha."

"There should be basically no danger. The Kumogakure mission is led by an elite jounin named Futaki Masato, and he is accompanied by seven chuunin."

"clear."

Shiyuan and Kai looked at each other and then answered in a low voice.

"If nothing happens along the way, we don't have to show up, so overall this mission is quite easy and not as complicated as imagined."

Kakashi said as he put away the map.

"set off!"

Whoosh whoosh!

Black shadows kept moving through the woods, startling many birds that had not yet gotten up early.

The leaves rustled, as if playing a beautiful symphony.

Soup country.

"Master Futaki, Basswood City is ahead of us. If we enter, we will enter the Kingdom of Fire."

A chunin in charge of reconnaissance said to the tall ninja in the lead.

"Okay, then we'll stay there today and set off again early tomorrow morning!"

Masato Futaki nodded slightly and immediately issued the order.

"Yes!"

The group of people quickly increased their speed and headed towards the small border town shrouded in dusk.

"Shiyuan, Kumogakure's people are here."

As soon as Kumogakure's people entered Basswood City, Kai who was guarding here immediately said to the sleepy Shiyuan beside him.

They were very fast and arrived here nearly three days ahead of Kumogakure's schedule.

"Well, follow me."

Shi Yuan was naturally not sleeping.

He recently learned a secret technique called Dafa Practice in Dreams. You can guess its effect just by looking at the name. As for the effect, only Shi Yuan, the founder, knows it.

"Notify Kakashi until we get to where they are staying."

Shi Yuan stretched and continued.

"it is good!"

The two wore masks and hid in the darkness.

Although Kai is not good at concealment ninjutsu, he is strong in taijutsu, so he can still hide his figure in the shadows with taijutsu.

As for Kakashi, he's not here.

In order to prevent the Kumogakure mission from changing its route after entering the Land of Fire, Kakashi was guarding another key position waiting for Kumogakure's people to settle down.

"Master Futuki, are all the cities in the Land of Fire as prosperous as this?"

Kumogakure and his group of eight people were walking through the crowd. One of the chuunin was a little uncomfortable with the crowds around him, so he leaned next to the leader and said.

"Is it prosperous?"

Futaki Masato looked calmly at the brightly lit and crowded scene around him and whispered.

"Yes, I have never seen such a scene on a normal day in the Kingdom of Thunder."

The chuunin looked at his team leader and continued to glance around, with somewhat complicated emotions on his face.

"This is just an ordinary city in the Country of Fire. As far as I know, there are places that are several times more lively than here."

Futaki Masato glanced at the Chuunin beside him, "Nakajo, is this your first time in the Land of Fire?"

"Yes, this is my first time. I have only heard about the prosperity of the Fire Country before."

The chuunin who was asked lowered his head and answered, looking a little shy.

"Although I don't have a good impression of Konoha, I have to admit that the unique geography and climate of the Land of Fire have given rise to the most prosperous scene in the ninja world. This is the foundation of Konoha's strength. Other ninja villages are completely incomparable."

"But Konoha seems to have declined. Shouldn't we Kumogakure take advantage of the current opportunity to develop?"

The chuunin named Nakajo raised his head and asked.

"In terms of combat power alone, Kumogakure is indeed not weaker than Konoha, but in terms of overall strength, we Kumogakure still have many ways to go."

Ermu replied, looking deeply ahead.

"If the daimyo hadn't stopped supplying us this time, the final result would never have been like this."

Nakajo whispered in a voice that only he could hear. His eyes were deep and unknown emotions appeared in them.

Soon, he looked up again and looked around.

The bright smiles on the faces of those civilians always made him feel uncomfortable.

"Let's go to Midtown. There's a nice looking hotel out front."

Slightly dazed, another voice sounded in Zhongcheng's ears.

It was a chuunin who was accompanying him, named Yaya, and he was also the ninja who introduced him to this mission.

Seeing the smile on the other person's face, Zhongcheng immediately restrained some of his thoughts and nodded slightly in response.

"it is good!"

He quickened his pace and followed the team towards the hotel.

"It's really interesting."

Shi Yuan and Kai hid in the shadow of the roof, looking at the Kumogakure delegation entering the hotel, with an interesting smile showing under his mask.

"What's wrong, Shiyuan?"

There was no one around, so Kai directly called Shi Yuan by his name.

He looked at Shi Yuan with some confusion, not knowing why he said it was interesting.

"The intelligence said that this time Kumogakure led the team with only one jounin, but just now, I discovered that there is a hidden jounin in their team."

"So, don't you find it interesting?"

Shi Yuan looked at Kai, and a glimmer of light flashed in the two black holes of the mask.

"That's it." Kai looked at the hotel again, as if he wanted to pass through the building and see the Kumogakure ninjas who had already entered, "Maybe it's to prevent emergencies. If one Jonin and another Jonin You can stand up and take command of the situation."

"maybe."

Shiyuan didn't care about Yunyin's purpose.

Just two jonins, how could they make big waves just by entering Konoha Village?

Moreover, he will also guard with all his strength to prevent certain things from happening.

"Inform Kakashi. All eight Kumogakure are here, and he can come back and take over our shift."

After confirming that the Kumogakure delegation was staying at this hotel, Shi Yuan said to Kai.

When Kakashi separated from them before, he left a one-time psychic scroll that could summon Kakashi's ninja dog for easy contact.

"Ok."

Kai took out the scroll from his back, spread it out and poured chakra into it.

As the white smoke flashed by, a dog sat on the scroll with a bone in its mouth and looked at Kai and Shiyuan in confusion.

"Parker, this is Kai. Please inform Kakashi and tell him that the target is here."

Although Kai was wearing a mask, Parker could already identify the owner of the scent as soon as he smelled it, so there was no need for Kai to reveal his identity.

"Okay, woof!"

Parker nodded and ran towards the outside of the city.

Kakashi is about ten miles away from here, not very far.

But before leaving, Parker looked at Shi Yuan beside Kai suspiciously.

Under its olfactory perception, Shiyuan did not emit the slightest smell.

But Parker was convinced that the other party was definitely an entity.

Therefore, this seems a bit incredible.

Shi Yuan's method of restraining his aura is really clever.

Fortunately, Parker didn't dwell on this aspect of the matter. He lay on all fours and disappeared from Kai's sight in the blink of an eye.

Successfully 'received' the Yunyin mission.

The next few days for the three of them became boring.

They kept circling around each other, even going to the toilet was time-consuming.

Fortunately, everything went as Shiyuan and Kakashi expected, and there was no danger at all along the way.

Three days later, the Kumogakure delegation successfully arrived in Konoha.

The first phase of Kakashi's team's mission was successfully completed, and several people successfully handed over the mission to the ANBU in the village.

Konoha also put some thought into the ceremony to welcome the mission.

We were greeted by a red carpet and a girl holding flowers.

In terms of appearance, Konoha Village never disappoints.

Many villagers were very excited about the arrival of the mission.

The armistice agreement between Konoha and Kumogakure can be described as good news for them.

War is not good for anyone and will only bring pain and sorrow.

But now that the agreement is signed, the two ninja villages will at least regain apparent harmony.

The mission entered Konoha Village, and Shiyuan also had a day's rest.

This trip took a total of six days.

Back home, Kimaru did not make the house a mess because of Tokiyuan's absence, because Tokiyuan moved his nest to the stairs, where Miyoko was still cleaning it every day.

Simply take a nap and eat something, and the rest of the day will pass easily.

However, Miyoko also told Tokiyuan a piece of news: a child with yellow hair came to see him every day during his absence.

Miyoko didn't seem to know anything about Naruto, because the two of them rarely paid attention to rumors.

Shi Yuan smiled when he heard the news that Naruto came to see him.

Then, he immediately told Miyoko that if Naruto comes to see him next time and he doesn't come anymore, he will tell Naruto that he is currently on a mission and will go find him when he has time.

After simply tidying up and exchanging feelings with Ximaru, whom he hadn't seen for a few days, Shiyuan left again.

Naruto Office.

Gai and Kakashi, who arrived before Tokiyuan, had already taken their stance, and as Tokiyuan arrived, the temporary ANBU team was reunited.

"You should be very clear about the next mission. I won't continue to nag you. Kumogakure's people will stay in the village for about a week. During this period, you all need to keep an eye on them to ensure the safety of each other and at the same time be careful of each other. All the little moves.”

"Our spies in Kumogakure have told us that there is currently a force within Kumogakure that is extremely malicious towards Konoha. They seem to want to sabotage the signing of this agreement, so be careful."

There was a trace of exhaustion in the third generation's expression, which made both Tokimoto and Kakashi a little confused.

Even when Konoha and Kumogakure were fighting before, the third generation didn't seem to show any helpless expression at this moment.

What else happened in the village these days?

Doubts remained in their hearts, so the three of them started working immediately after receiving the task.

He switched defenses with the ANBU guarding the house where the Kumogakure mission was staying, and they simply assigned their respective tasks.

The surveillance was left to Tokiyuan and Kakashi, and Kai's task was to replenish combat power at any time.

The house where Yunyin is located is located at the back of the commercial street, surrounded by relatively wealthy residents of the village.

Although they switched defenses with the ANBU here, because Kumogakure came with a total of eight people this time, there were still some ANBU teams around who were responsible for attacking Tokiyuan and the other three.

Among the Kumogakure, Shiyuan believed that the one who needed to be kept an eye on the most was naturally the leader of the team.

Therefore, the first goal of the three of them is to keep an eye on each other's overt and dark jounin.

As for other chunin, other Anbu are usually responsible for monitoring.

According to Shigen's memory, when Kumogakure contacted Konoha to sign the armistice agreement, someone would appear and kidnap Hinata, the eldest daughter of the Hyuga family.

Then, after Hyuuga Hichizu killed the enemy, he was threatened by Kumogakure.Therefore, Konoha could only call Hinata Hizashi's twin brother Hyuga Hizashi out to take the blame.

This incident may be regarded as the most humiliating event in the four generations after Konoha, affecting the growth of several generations.

For example, Neji, one of the Twelve Young Masters of Konoha in later generations, hated the clan because of his father's death.

Although Ningji finally chose to forgive as the plot developed, things were not perfect.

"Shiyuan, pay attention, that jounin is out."

Kakashi narrowed his eyes and said to Tokiyuan, and saw that the Jounin of the Kumogakure mission named Masato Futaki walked out of the room alone and walked towards the street.

He hid the Kumogakure forehead protector on his body, and coupled with his not very dark skin, he looked like a taller ordinary person.

"Kakashi, follow me, I will continue to guard here."

The jounin hidden in the Kumogakure mission naturally cannot escape Konoha's gaze. There is no need for Tokimoto to report it, and the ANBU has already mastered this information.

"it is good!"

Kakashi nodded and then disappeared to follow the jounin who left.

Leaving with Kakashi, there were also several ANBU team members hiding in the distance.

Tokiyuan and the others were responsible for the Jonin, but the ANBU team also had the right to improvise.

Kai was not with the two of them, but according to Shi Yuan's perception, Kai was still guarding somewhere outside.

After that Jonin left, several more Chuunin left one after another. They went out together and seemed to be extremely curious about Konoha.

Konoha will naturally not stop such a Kumo ninja, but will strengthen the protection of key locations and arrange for ANBU to monitor them all the time.

Soon, the hidden jounin came out, accompanied by a chuunin.

"Nakajo, let's go out for a walk together. Konoha Village is much more prosperous than the Basswood City a few days ago. Maybe you can find something you need to bring back that Kumogakure doesn't have. This time I will give it to a few at home. The little guy brought back some things that are only available in Konoha Village, they have been craving for them for a long time."

Yaya put his arm around Nakajo's shoulders, and the two walked out of the residence chatting and laughing.

Shi Yuan did not speak, but made a gesture to the ANBU in the dark, and then disappeared.

The chuunin named Nakajo seemed to have something amiss during the past two days of observation. He was noticed several times by Shi Yuan observing the Anbu who were watching outside.

Although the power of the chuunin was a little underwhelming, Shiyuan was also careful, not to mention that the other party was accompanied by a hidden jounin at this time.

Shi Yuan followed closely, but there was nothing unusual about the two people in his sight.

They are just like ordinary ninjas, they just follow the flow of people while shopping, and when they see something strange, they stop to look at it, and if it suits them, they buy it directly.

When it got dark, the two wandering people returned to their residence with many purchased things.

Shi Yuan saw that the other party was really 'shopping', but in fact, he didn't really let down his guard in his heart.

He recorded every vendor and even the people he had physical contact with, and then when he returned to the other party's residence, he gave the list and the list to the Anbu for them to pay attention to.

Although he didn't really join ANBU, Shiyuan was also very skilled in ANBU's business.

When he returned to his residence, Kakashi had also returned.

The two briefly exchanged opinions and found that the ninjas under surveillance by the other party were wandering around the village in the afternoon.

Although everyone hopes that things are really that simple, in fact they are not.

An hour passed, and both Tokiyuan and Kakashi received news from the ANBU.

Among the chuunin and jounin under Tokimoto's surveillance, there were three spies from Kumogakure who came into contact in the afternoon. Although they were all spies recorded in Konoha, they also reflected that the matter was not that simple.

As the third generation said before, there are differences within Kumogakure. Even if it is imperative to sign the agreement, those people still want to cause trouble.

The signing of the agreement is scheduled for tomorrow.

At that time, the Kumogakure mission will place the agreement signed by Raikage on the Hokage's desk.

Although he didn't know why he didn't sign immediately, Shi Yuan knew that he had no control over this matter. The people in Sandai didn't have any objections, so naturally he couldn't have any.

Dinner was a few street pies brought by Kai, made by the handsome man who Shi Yuan had met before.

The surveillance of the Kumogakure mission naturally requires 24 hours a day.

Tokiyuan spent the first half of the night, and Kakashi spent the second half of the night. As for Gai, he had been excluded from the two.
