I'm in Konoha's Lie Flat Simulator

"It's captain, don't forget to eat your wife's stinky tofu last night."

"That's outrageous, it should be the captain..."

"Stop talking. Nagogawa Town is just ahead. Natsu, let's see what's going on inside?" Maruhoshi Kosuke interrupted the two people's nonsense.

Hinata Xia started to use her Byakugan to observe, and the two gay friends also shut up in an amused manner.

"...They are the ninjas of Sunagakure, and there are some people who don't wear forehead protectors. I don't know if they are Sunagakure people. They gathered many villagers in the square... They seemed to be asking for something... Ah!" Hinata Xia suddenly shouted. Whisper.

"what happened?"

"They are beheading the villagers...ah, another group has come up!" Hinata Xia's hands were trembling.

"These damn bandits." Maruhoshi Kosuke frowned and clenched his fists.

"What should I do? Do you want to fight?" Yu Luo rubbed his hands.

"There are many enemies... there should be more than twenty, and three of them have very strong chakra reactions. Even if they are not jounin, they will be elite chuunin or special jounin." Hinata Xia reminded.

"There are so many...Teacher, we shouldn't be responsible for things other than this task, right?" Ebisu immediately shrank his neck in fear.

"That's right, even if you encounter unexpected events outside the mission, you can ignore them..." Maruhoshi Furusuke looked serious.

"Your next sentence is: - but!" Yu Luo shouted.

"But... I can't just watch these civilians who selflessly support our fight being tortured and killed like this!" Maruhoshi Kosuke's curved back suddenly straightened up.

"There are more than 20 people, and each person has to fight five..." Ebisu clapped his fingers.

"No, you don't need to follow me. This is my battle alone. I'm old. I've been waiting for a battle that can make me burn out my life. I think it's today." Maruhoshi Kosuke's eyes were straight. Looking at the small town in front of him, the setting sun reflected in his clear pupils seemed to be burning with flames.

"Teacher, be sure to take care! Let's escape first." Yu Luo bowed deeply.

"Ah! Why are you more cowardly than me!" Ebisu was shocked.

"Yu Luo-kun..." Hinata Xiadu hesitated.

"..." Maruhoshi Kosuke wanted to warn him something more, but suddenly he choked on his breath. He didn't know how to speak. He just pulled out his willow sword and rushed down the mountain to the town alone.

"Are we really leaving?" Ebisu stared blankly at the teacher's lonely back.

"Shit, if we want to go together, the teacher will definitely not allow it. When he was young, he once killed his teammates because of his reckless decisions. He will not just watch the three of us take risks. Even if he can persuade him, he will give up. After all the talk, it’s better to save some energy to deal with the enemy." Yu Luo waved his hand and motioned for everyone to follow.

……

Nagogawa Town, a peaceful and peaceful village at the foot of the mountain, is famous for its medicinal materials and cultivation. The arrival of purchasers from all over the country has also brought prosperity, and rows of small high-rise buildings have been built in this remote mountainous area.

But at this moment, their wealth ushered in the most brutal destroyer.

There are countless villages and towns in the Land of Fire, and it is impossible to station ninjas in every village and town. Most of them still rely on wild ninjas and samurai soldiers to protect their safety.

As an excellent material supply point, the Nagogawa River has been protected by more than a dozen Konoha ninjas, which is the greatest guarantee.

When Kosuke Maruboshi stepped into the gate of Nagogawa Town, the corpses of ordinary soldiers were already everywhere, as well as two Konoha ninjas, who had long lost the breath of the living.

"Rest in peace." Kosuke Maruhoshi stretched out his hand to close their unwilling eyes, took off their forehead protectors and put them in their bags. They will be proof of bravery and the sustenance of the family's grief.

Suddenly three figures fell behind him, and Kosuke Maruhoshi immediately drew his sword.

"Hey, where is the teacher licking the bag? What kind of equipment is hairy?" Yu Luo smiled.

"You...?" Maruhoshi Kosuke was stunned for a moment, then immediately lowered his voice and yelled: "Didn't I let you go! This is my battle alone!"

"Yeah, teacher, if you continue talking, you will alert the Sunagakure ninja in a while." Yu Luo nodded.

Kosuke Maruhoshi was speechless for a moment. Teaching students something in the enemy's hinterland was simply asking for death.

"Xia Jiang, look at what's going on now." Yu Luo started to direct.

"You brat..." Maruhoshi Kosuke shook his head helplessly, but a smile couldn't help but appear on his lips.

When Yuluo Jueran left at first, he was still a little disappointed, as if he had taught three white-eyed wolves, although he would not accept three children who had just graduated from the ninja school to join the war...

But at least pretend to be hypocritical, right?

I didn't expect this kid to be so cunning. You can't just drive them away after entering a war zone, right?

"No matter what, you must first ensure your own safety. You should not die on a battlefield that does not belong to you." Maruhoshi Kosuke solemnly ordered.

"I know, I know, if the teacher continues to be verbose, the villagers in the square will be upset!" Yu Luo waved his hand.

"Okay, let's take action." Maruhoshi Kosuke nodded.

"Now they are surrounding the entire square, and most of the villagers have been driven there." Hinata replied.

"Let's go to the square!" Maruhoshi Kosuke ordered.

"The bell tower, the bell tower is a visual blind spot." Hinata Natsuya gave timely advice.

"Okay, you lead the way." Yu Luo nodded, trusting his teammates.

"I'll lead the team...?" Xia was stunned for a moment, wanted to say something, but walked ahead.

The four of them sneaked quietly, using Baiyan's divine perspective to avoid everyone's sight, and climbed up the bell tower from behind. They could just observe everything in front through the gap in the bell tower.

Probably only the three leaders were dressed as Sunagakure ninjas. The rest of the ninjas were either wearing messy uniforms or had signs of rebellion on their foreheads. They looked more like a ragtag group of Langnin.

Hundreds of civilians were surrounded in a circle, and several ninjas were carrying big bags to extort money one by one. Those who couldn't get the money out would fight with fists and kicks.

Five young girls were carried out and were escorted, trembling, to kneel beside the corpses of the previous group of beheaded villagers. The leading Sunagakure ninja shouted: "Where are the ninjas of Konoha? I know you can hear it. , come out quickly, otherwise all the villagers you protect will die..."

"I'll give you a minute to think about it... If you don't come out, I won't let them die so easily."

As he said this, he snapped his fingers, and a Lang nin next to him laughed, broke the oil lamp in his hand, and poured thick kerosene on the girls. Suddenly, there were screams of crying and begging for mercy.

No matter how strong a ninja is, he cannot watch the girl who sent him a lunch the day before burn to death.

"That means we still have ninjas who are not dead, but are hiding, and these beasts are forcing them out?" Ebisu immediately understood what was happening.

"Xia, find them!" Yu Luo said immediately.

"Hmm..." Hinata Natsu rolled his eyes and immediately discovered three ninjas hiding in the opposite room. Looking at the chakra reaction, they must have been injured.

At this moment, the three of them were lying on the window watching everything happening in the square, falling into a difficult decision.

If you go out, you will die. If you don't go out, you will watch the whole town die.

No matter what choice you make, it is the most painful.

Listening to the countdown of the Sunagakure ninja smiling evilly outside the door, the three of them covered their ears tightly, wishing they could poke their ears deaf.

"Damn...if I don't go out, this countdown will echo in my dreams for the rest of my life!" The Konoha captain finally put down his hands and pushed open the window.
