Konoha: Open the full map and hang melee?

The bright red sun hung high in the sky, and a large cloud of dust and smoke rose in the distance in the southeast.

"Senior Qian, there's a fierce battle over there." Hidden under the yellow sand, Aburame Zhiwei pointed in the direction of the rising dust and smoke.

"Just remember our mission, don't worry about anything else." Qian said indifferently.

Zhiwei was not angry because of his attitude, and sighed in his heart:

Senpai is still the same as before, like a cold machine. Even though I am now a jounin, I still feel like a graduated genin in front of him.

He silently released the parasites in that direction.Even if that is not the case, proper reconnaissance is still necessary.

Zhiwei's mission this time is to ambush here and wait to intercept the passing Sunagakure supply team.

According to their intelligence, there will be two ninja teams, one at the top, three at the middle, and three at the bottom, escorting a batch of supplies that will pass through here when heading to the Wolf Gorge.

Zhiwei possesses a flying psychic beast and is good at concealment and reconnaissance, so he became the perfect candidate for this task.His partner is the veteran ANBU Jounin Chi.

Zhiwei remembered that when he first entered ANBU, he had partnered with Qian once.Qian's powerful assassination sword skills are still fresh in his memory.

The yellow sand is long and the wind is blowing.

Zhiwei dislikes coming to the Kingdom of Wind to carry out missions because his bugs hate the hot sand.But fortunately, it was getting dark soon, and it wasn’t so uncomfortable after nightfall.

"Senior, someone is coming over. Two people, and they both seem to be seriously injured. It's just..." Zhiwei reported in a low voice.

What surprised him was that he seemed to have seen the chakras of these two people.One of them, even though he was very weak, was deeply impressed by the burning and dangerous chakra. He should be Ye Cang, the Burning Escaper who had fought against him before. He couldn't be wrong.

What puzzled him was another person, whose familiar yet unfamiliar aura was very puzzling.

"The mission target will arrive tomorrow. Don't cause too much trouble." Qian said without any emotion change.

Zhiwei nodded, but as the parasite followed, he felt more and more that this person seemed familiar.And these two people finally appeared in his sight.

The woman was Ye Cang. She was carrying a young man on her shoulders and was walking towards the place where the two of them were hiding.

White eyes, Konoha protects his forehead.

"They are members of the Hyuga clan. They are coming towards us. Can we save them?" Zhiwei asked.

Qianye obviously noticed the two of them. First he stared at Ye Cang with murderous eyes, and then frowned at the man next to her.

A white eye cannot be faked, but Zhiwei can't remember where he has seen this familiar face.

"Teacher Zhiwei..." Hinali fainted on Ye Cang's shoulder.

This weak cry made Zhiwei's troubled thoughts suddenly clear up.

"Leave!"

He exclaimed and rushed out.

"Save him~" Ye Cang saw a Konoha ninja emerging from the sand dunes, and he understood why Hinata Li had been pointing in this direction.Finally, his tense nerves could no longer hold up, and he fainted and fell to the ground.

Zhiwei quickly checked Ri Xiali's injuries and used parasites to inject chakra into his body to maintain his vitality.He anxiously said to Qian Kai who was hiding in the sand dunes: "This is my student, Hinata Li. He is seriously injured now. If he cannot get treatment in time, he will definitely die. I must send him back immediately."

"If you leave, it will be deemed as giving up the mission." Qian said calmly, but there was an icy chill in his words.

"I'm sorry, senior." Zhiwei solemnly bowed to Qian and apologized.

"I have to save him, even if it means sacrificing my life." Zhiwei felt guilty for a long time about the fact that Hinata was kidnapped last time.Now, under his nose, it was impossible for him to just watch him die.

The art of psychic.

A huge unicorn was summoned by Zhiwei.

Zhiwei ignored Qian who had pressed his hand on the handle of the knife and resolutely picked up Ri Xiali.When he picked him up, he found that the hands of the unconscious Ri Xiali and Ye Cang next to him were tightly held together. He even pulled slightly, but he could not separate their hands.So he luckily sent both of them onto the back of the One-Horned Fairy.

Qian looked at the unconscious Ri Xiali with a complicated expression.

The last time, it was only after this kid sacrificed his life that he was able to survive.at the moment.....

"That's it!" Qian sighed, summoned a scroll using psychic skills, and handed it to Zhiwei.

He looked at Ri Xiali and said to Zhiwei: "When he wakes up, give this scroll to him. If you encounter an enemy and fail to return successfully, destroy the scroll."

"I don't like to owe others things, especially my life. This time the task will be completed by me alone. You go back as soon as possible." Qian said indifferently.

He tried hard to control his emotions and not let them flow out.

"Take care, senior. If nothing can be done, retreat. After all, the mission is not as important as life."

After Zhiwei finished speaking, he ordered the One-horned Immortal to fly into the air.

"Mission and companions? Sakumo, are you right?" Qian murmured alone.

Night fell just in time, and Zhiwei's Unicorn Fairy successfully returned to the Kingdom of Wind without any danger.

Platycodon mountain castle.

Shikaku, who had a pineapple head and a ponytail, patted Zhiwei on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't worry, Tsunade-sama takes action personally, there is no one she can't save."

Zhiwei nodded: "Where is the female sand ninja? What are you going to do with her?"

"Treat her first, and then interrogate her after resuscitating her. In her current state, Haiyi can easily kill her using secret techniques."

Zhiwei's prediction stopped again.

He speculated that Hinata Li disappeared in the Kingdom of Wind and was probably rescued by Ye Cang.Judging from the way the two supported each other before, it would be an exaggeration to describe them as life and death friends.

Such a friend of the disciple is subjected to secret examinations.Zhiwei felt something was not right in his heart.

"Compared to this, I still think you should be more worried about your mission." Shikaku said.

"If you leave rashly like this, you are putting your companions in danger, which is no different from murder."

Zhiwei: "I have no choice. I can't just watch Li die."

He took two steps and said, "I will rush back immediately to support Senior Qian."

"When you came back, I asked Lord Jiraiya to rush over." Shikaku crossed his arms and said with a smile: "In your current state, can you still fight if you fly back?"

"Master Jiraiya?"

Zhiwei was quite shocked. He didn't expect Shikamaru to be able to persuade Jiraiya to take action.

The three ninjas each have their own strengths, but when it comes to combat ability, Jiraiya is undoubtedly the strongest.With his help, as long as the information is correct, Senior Qian should be able to come back safely even if the mission fails.

"Thank you, Lujiu." Zhiwei expressed his heartfelt thanks to his childhood friend. He was always trustworthy and considerate every time.

"Well~ Shikaku, I can..."

Seeing Zhiwei's hesitation, Shikaku said, "What about the female sand ninja?"

Zhiwei scratched his head awkwardly and then nodded.

Shikaku said calmly:

"She should be Ye Cang."

Zhiwei nodded.

Shikaku continued:

"I received the news a few days ago. It was said that she colluded with us Konoha ninjas and massacred many ninjas from the ally Iwagakure. Among those killed was the jounin Bunga. Sunagakure Village has publicly declared her a traitorous ninja."

"Let's talk about all the problems after Hinata wakes up." Lu Jiu patted Zhiwei on the shoulder:

"I still have a lot of work to deal with."

After saying that, Lu Jiu turned around and walked outside, saying as he walked:

"Go and rest for a while. Waiting here won't help. This is war time, so we still need to maintain our strength at all times."
