Path of the Giants of the Autumn Path of the Leaf

Several people rushed through the night through the forests of the Country of Fire to the Country of Grass.

Unlike the Kingdom of Wind, which is located in the desert, and the Kingdom of Earth, which has poor water resources, the Kingdom of Grass has a lot of forest swamps.Under the cover of aquatic plants, there are soft swamps and small puddles.

Being caught between the three great kingdoms of wind, fire and earth, the ninjas in the Land of Grass generally have low combat power, and their folk customs are relatively exclusive.

Only half a day after entering the border of Grassland, the four of them experienced no less than three rains one after another.

The cold wind blew by, and Feng Jianmu raised his white arms to cover the light, looked at the distant sky, and said with a frown.

"It's going to rain again! Why isn't it called the Land of Rain?"

Miko Kitagawa Sakura walked behind Kazama Mu with her bag on her back and said slowly.

"The weather at the border of the Land of Grass is like this. It will be much better after crossing the border."

Akimichi Mizukyou walked at the end of the team carrying Kurama Yakumo on his back. The weight of the two made it more difficult for him to move forward on the muddy forest path.

After listening to Kitagawa Sakura's words, Akimichi Shuijing couldn't help but be curious.

"Have you ever been to the Country of Grass?"

Hearing this, Kurama Yakumo, who was lying on Akimichi Suikage's shoulder, slowly woke up, adjusted his body, and turned to look at Kitagawa Sakura's back in front of him.

Kurama Yakumo was not idle along the way. As long as he was awake, he would give Akimichi Mizukyou a beating on his shoulders to relieve the pain.For Kurama Yakumo, who is weak and sick, this is the only thing she can do.

What reassured her was that even though it was troublesome to bring her, no one in the team complained.

This gave her a sense of belonging. She would fall asleep when she was tired, and when she woke up and opened her eyes, she would still be lying on that not-wide back.

"No, I saw it in the book." Kitagawa Sakura stopped for a moment and looked up at the green sky shrouded in lush branches.

The drizzle of rain fell from mid-air, and the gray clouds were like a wide belt, extending towards the way they came.The appearance was exactly as Kitagawa Sakura said, with the rainwater appearing in strips.

"Find a place to hide from the rain. It's easy to catch a cold if you get wet." Kitagawa Sakura murmured.

It's hard to imagine that such words would come out of the mouth of a miko. A miko's physique is no worse than that of a ninja, or even worse.

After all, sometimes, some special divination requires the witch to sit on the open grass in the wild for a long time and watch the stars.Or you can meditate in the heavy rain and feel the natural energy swimming around you.

In short, being a miko is not that easy, and sometimes the work she does is even bloodier than that of a ninja.

There were four people in the team, and the only one who needed shelter from the rain was Kurama Yakumo.Her body was too weak, and even if she was wearing a raincoat, she would easily catch a cold from the rainwater floating in the air.

Kurama Yakumo also understood that Kitagawa Sakura did this to take care of herself, and couldn't help but say thank you softly.

Kitagawa Sakura didn't speak, she just glanced at her, which was considered as received.

After finding a low cave and making sure it was dry inside, the group hid inside.There are many such caves in the forest. Occasionally, you can find some dry firewood in the caves, which were left behind by some nearby hunters.

The attribute change of Kazama Mu's chakra is fire, which ignited a pile of dry hay, and the dry food was roasted by the fire of Akimichi Water Mirror.

"Cough, cough, cough! The fire is almost out!" Akidao Shuijing complained, "Will it light a fire?"

"What a waste! I'm too lazy to light it, go rub the stones yourself!" Feng Jianmu pushed the Akidao water mirror angrily, but still had the patience to rekindle the fire.

The choking white smoke floated out of the cave, reflecting the emerald-like forest that was wet by rain.

The verdant green was soon covered by the increasingly heavy white fog, and in the end it rained heavily without any warning.

Around the crackling fire, Sakura Kitagawa introduced the situation of the Country of Grass to several people.At that time, everyone originally decided to go to the Country of Kawawa, but Sakura Kitagawa proposed a safer plan to go to the Country of Grass first.

"We are now located in the northwest of Konoha. The Kingdom of Grass borders the Three Kingdoms, but no one is fighting for this land."

"Why? Shouldn't such geographical conditions generally become a battleground for military strategists like the Kingdom of Rain?" Fengjian Mu was stunned.

She has been to many places but never left an impression.I am not interested in these convoluted things, but occasionally I can hear people analyzing the situation and current events in various countries in the pub.

Akimichi Shuijing just stared at Kitagawa Sakura silently, without any room to interrupt.

He only knew part of the plot and knew nothing about the situation in these small countries.Even if I remember some vaguely, most of them are useless memories.

Compared to Kitagawa Sakura, a serious native and a knowledgeable native miko, Akimichi Suikage still felt that it would be wiser to listen with her ears pricked up.

"There are two main reasons why there is no big country to invade the Kingdom of Grass. The first is that it is unnecessary." Kitagawa Sakura said, "The government of the Kingdom of Grass is corrupt, but every year it spends a lot of money to make good friends with the surrounding big countries."

"To put it bluntly, if you pay tribute on time, those big countries will not have to bother to attack the Country of Grass if you get the benefits."

"This is one, and the other is that it is not cost-effective." Sakura Kitagawa continued, "The Country of Grass has always had a good attitude towards capable wandering ninjas, and even in order to encourage them to stay in the Country of Grass, it did not hesitate to open B-level to them. The following ninjutsu arsenal."

"Furthermore, the folk custom of the Land of Grass is fierce. Most ninjas like to secretly learn the ninjutsu of other ninja villages, even to the extent of using any means necessary."

"In attacking the Country of Grass, which has always been known as a den of bandits, not only will there be no money to be made, but it will also easily capsize in the gutter."

Kitagawa Sakura's words were easy to understand, and after listening to them, they immediately understood what kind of troubled land they had stepped onto.Bandits are rampant here and there are many wandering ninjas, but the greater the chaos, the better for a few people.

Silently smacking it in the mouth a few times, Qiudao Shuijing was able to taste some of the taste, and he felt like he had picked up a little Wolong.

Kitagawa Sakura pondered for a moment, not paying attention to Akimichi Shuijing's expression.He frowned, paused and continued.

"The Kingdom of Kawa and the Kingdom of Rain, which are closer to Konoha, are also considered chaotic places. However, in recent years, for some unknown reason, the Kingdom of Rain has suddenly annexed the Kingdom of Kawa. It is initially speculated that a more powerful force may have appeared in the Kingdom of Rain. The power exists.”

"The Country of Snow is remote, the Country of Iron is neutral, and the Country of Demons is weak. The Country of Taki and the Country of Tea both have good relations with Konoha and are still within the coverage of Konoha's influence, as is the Country of Yu. "

"Besides, the Country of Grass has always been despicable, and its relationship with Konoha is not good. Konoha has very few eyes and ears here."

"No matter how you choose, the Country of Grass is the most suitable place to go at this stage."

After the rain stopped, the four-person team set out again, crossing the border of the rainy forest. What appeared in front of them was an endless plain.
