Saving Uchiha starts from being the patriarch Uchiha Zongxian

The sound of exploding firewood drove away Naruto's sleepiness.

He rubbed his eyes, lifted up the blanket covering his body, thanked Uchiha Shisui, and returned the blanket. There was a mark of a fire fan on the blanket. You could tell where this thing came from at a glance. Uchiha The clan's family crest is as well known as their pride, and Naruto remembered that such patterns can be seen everywhere in Touka's home.

Uchiha Shisui's smile was pale and forced. He took the blanket and had no extra energy to say anything to Naruto. He just sat on the wooden pillar and continued to be in a daze.

Everyone is not surprised,

This genius of the Uchiha family didn't know whether he was possessed by evil spirits or something else. When he was on the road, he just kept busy. It can be seen that this Uchiha Shisui is a rare good person.

Not to mention that there are very few in the Uchiha clan, even if we extend the scope to the entire Konoha, there are not many such kind-hearted good people.

He has a cheerful and generous temperament, speaks softly and politely, smiles first when meeting people, and makes people feel as comfortable as a spring breeze when dealing with him. The most commendable thing is that this is not to say that Uchiha Shisui has a high emotional intelligence in dealing with others. On the contrary, he is very Somewhat innocent, all this is an act from the heart.

Naruto leaned on his backpack and fell asleep for a while, not forgetting to take out a blanket and cover him with it.

No one else around him thought of this.

"Naruto, wake up and wash your face. Get ready for dinner."

Akimichi Choza was stirring the soup pot with a spoon.

As the leader of the Akimichi clan, few people know that he has good cooking skills. This is not a family tradition of the Akimichi clan. The Akimichi clan members love to eat, but not to cook. Akimichi Choza's cooking skills are actually He was trained on the battlefield, that is, those comrades who are still alive who have fought alongside him know that Akimichi Choza is not bad at cooking.

Unfortunately, after leaving the battlefield, Akimichi Choza didn't cook much with his own hands.

This time, escorting the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki to the eastern frontline allowed him to pick up a skill that had been neglected for a long time.

Today's dinner is pork soup with grilled rice balls.

The alluring aroma filled the air, and Naruto's stomach began to growl. He was really tired after a long day's journey. Besides, a half-grown man is a poor man. Naruto happened to be this age, so he was hungry after eating so much. Quickly, he hurried to the stream to wash his face, Kakashi followed silently like a ghost shadow.

It has been two days since they left Konoha,

Kakashi is still thinking about how to communicate with Naruto. It is said that the bad debt left by Sarutobi Hiruzen is to blame. The link between Kakashi and Naruto is the Yondaime Hokage, but Naruto does not know that he He is the fourth generation Hokage's child, and Kakashi doesn't know whether to reveal this secret.

But without such a bond, he would have no reason to care for Naruto.

He also consulted the two clan leaders, Shiwei Aburame and Choza Akimichi, but unfortunately neither of them gave him a clear answer as to whether or not he should reveal his identity to Naruto. This question is currently bothering the higher-ups in the village and they continue to hide it. I went down and was worried that one day Naruto would hate the village, but now that I had to explain the facts, I was worried that he would lose control and run away...

When the senior executives sighed, they often criticized the "Sandaime" for being stupid and incompetent!

Good jinchūriki,

If you don't cultivate it carefully, you will cause so many troubles.

It actually caused trouble for the successors.

"Uncle Dingzao, how long do we have to go?" Naruto held the grilled rice ball and asked about the distance. This was also a routine for the past two days. Even though he actually knew it, he still endured it every night when eating. I can’t help but ask the previous question.

"If the journey goes well, we shouldn't have to eat outdoors tomorrow."

Akimichi Choza was holding a rice bowl that was one size larger than the others, almost as big as half a pot.

If Naruto hadn't been too young and couldn't move faster, they should have reached the front line by now. The mobility of the ninjas was so exaggerated. To be precise, it wasn't just ninjas. As long as they were refined, they could Carats are abundant in his hands and feet. Even if he cannot perform delicate operations such as climbing up a tree and treading water, he can still travel faster without being taught.

"Tomorrow?"

Two shining lights lit up in Naruto's eyes.

Can we see wisteria flowers tomorrow?He had a lot on his mind and couldn't wait to talk to others.

As for the possibility of going to the battlefield or something,

He didn't understand it very well, so he didn't really care.

Unknowingly, Kakashi, who had finished his dinner, left the fire and went into the forest not far away. He pulled out the Kodachi, and the blade glowed with a cold, snowy brilliance under the moonlight. , appeared like a ghost behind a wandering ninja without a forehead protector. The blade flashed lightly, and large swaths of scarlet shot fell on the tree trunk. The lifeless body lay motionless on the tree.

This is just the beginning.

Kakashi became the incarnation of the God of Death in the human world, harvesting the lives of these greedy and daring idiots wantonly. These guys were hired to ambush here, planning to wait until dark before launching an attack and kidnapping Naruto. Unfortunately, The thing is that they got the task through an underground intermediary, so they didn't know the identity of the client.

After torture to no avail,

Kakashi completely let go of his hands and feet to kill.

These miscellaneous fish didn't even have time to throw a detonating talisman, and were just killed, because it wasn't just Kakashi who did it, the wooden-like Uchiha Shisui killed more people than Kakashi. After a while, The shadow clones of Qiu Daofeng and Akai also came to the scene of the massacre one after another.

"Shisui, Kakashi, did you get anything?"

Akimichi Dingzao kicked the body at his feet and looked around, but didn't see any conspicuous special signs.

"As before, the identity of the person behind the scenes is still unclear."

Shisui replied softly.

This was already the seventh attack in two days. Since Naruto left the village, various attacks have not stopped. The elite ANBU team hiding in the darkness has suffered heavy casualties and is no longer able to continue the protection work. Until now, the true identity of the main messenger has not been found out.

"It's either a Kumo ninja or an Iwa ninja."

Aburame Shiwei is here in her true form.

Their clan's method of raising insects in their bodies means that they cannot coexist with the shadow clones. The insects will devour chakra and destroy the stability of the shadow clones, and they will collapse on their own without anyone having to do anything.

"The Kumo ninja are the most likely! They are the most aggressive."

Finally, he added.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Some things do not require evidence. After all, those who have the ability and courage to take action against Konoha's Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki are only a few other villages. The Suna Ninja are still recuperating to this day. , the spies planted by the Mist Ninja in the Country of Fire have been raided several times.

The only ones left are Kumo Ninja and Iwa Ninja.

They have the ability to clearly investigate Naruto's route forward, and they also have the capital to hire wandering ninjas to launch attacks, and they also mixed in several powerful masters among the wandering ninjas. Otherwise, the elite ANBU team would not have suffered heavy casualties. Konoha's ANBU He has not declined to the point of being beaten to a pulp by a group of wandering ninjas.

"Hold on one more night. Before we set off, Lord Hokage has sent a letter to contact the Uchiha clan leader. Reinforcements to greet us will arrive tomorrow morning."

Akimichi Dingza cheered everyone up.

Although such a move is somewhat redundant.

Everyone present, not counting Naruto, the youngest Uchiha Shisui, was also a strong man who had experienced the Third Ninja War and gained a reputation. No matter what, he would not be frightened by such a small battle. .

"Ding Zao-senpai, don't worry! Kakashi and I will definitely protect Naruto."

Akai patted his chest and said passionately.

After saying that, he glanced at Kakashi and said, "Really? Kakashi!"

"...I will use my own life to protect Naruto." Kakashi was too lazy to pay attention to Akai, an idiot who always got passionate. However, what he said today was not wrong. He lost so many people. Treasure, he no longer wants to lose any more!

----

"Failed again!"

"It's a normal thing, isn't it? Although there are no Byakugan from the Hyuga family, and there are no members of the Yamanaka clan, but with the Aburame clan leader who is good at playing with bugs, if it is so easy to succeed, I have to wonder if it is a trap. ”

"But time is running out? If Konoha's frontline sends people to support us, there will be no chance at all."

On a hill quite far away from the corpse-strewn forest,

A group of Kumo ninja gathered here.

Aburame Shiwei's guess was correct. It was indeed the Kumo ninja who attacked them. To be precise, they were the spies planted by the Kumo ninja in Konoha and the Land of Fire. These daring guys knew that the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki had left. After hearing the news from the village, they started taking action without waiting for the order from their Raikage.

"Then we can't act rashly."

The speaker was a very large man with gray hair and a weathered face. He clenched his fists and said resolutely: "It's difficult for us alone to deal with those guys who are protecting the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki. Taking action hastily will only cause us to suffer unnecessary losses, and no one is allowed to take action before support from the village arrives."

"What if the support arrives late?"

The question was asked by a young man.

"That means it's not the time to capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki. Just wait for the next opportunity. Don't be greedy and dream of reaching the sky in one step. Be careful and kill you. It doesn't matter if you die. It's a waste of the manpower and material resources the village spent on you. Then That’s the damnedest thing.”

The gray-haired middle-aged man scolded the young people under his command in a cold voice.

The young man who had been scolded shrank his head and did not dare to say anything anymore. Seeing that his subordinates had become quiet, the middle-aged man waved his hand and signaled everyone to go about their business.

Wait until there is no one around,

This was the deep fatigue that showed on the middle-aged man's face. He didn't know if the decision he made was right. He mobilized almost all the chess pieces that Kumo Ninja had planted in the Land of Fire and Konoha, just to capture The Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, if this operation fails...

He shook his head, trying not to think about it.

It is uncertain whether they will fight or not. If the support from Yunyin Village does not catch up, they will have to retreat without fighting. And if the support from Yunyin Village arrives in time, there will naturally be more. The confidence to complete the action.
