Konoha: Archers of the Hyuga family

"Kumo Ninja... we have no information about these four people. Since the patrol team leader confirmed that there is no resistance, the opponent is at least an elite Jonin team. It would be really troublesome to attack the current village by surprise."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took the information and blew out a smoke ring.

The captain is a member of the Hyuga clan, and it is generally not wrong to judge the strength of a ninja based on chakra.

He rubbed his forehead, closed his eyes, and went through the jounin who were still in the village in his mind. He took out a pen and wrote down the mission on the scroll. At the same time, he rolled the information sent by Hinata Tatsumi into it and threw it to the person standing on the desk. crow in front.

"Leave it to Minato. Kumogakure must have known the location of the village from Iwagakure, and the jinchūriki's identity may have been exposed, so we must not let Kumo ninja enter the village."

"clear."

Crow caught the scroll and left instantly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also patted his butt and stood up and walked out of the office.

The sneak attack of Kumo ninja may not be limited to this team. Maybe there are ninjas from Iwagakure who have infiltrated into the Fire Country. There are too many things in the village that need to be protected. He needs to deal with it and at least find a place to hide that girl Kushina...

……

"Lin!"

Illya trotted all the way, opened her arms and pounced on Lin like a flying squirrel, rubbing her face with her own, making the little girl's face turn red.

"Ilia~"

"I haven't seen Yun Chuan for two months. Only his aunt is still at home. Do you know where he went?"

Lin looked at Obito beside her.

Obito pursed his lips, "Who knows~"

That guy Hinata Kumokawa always seems to have a very important mission to complete, and he can even go on missions with a group of jounin. He looks like a jounin like Mr. Minato.

It would be a lie to say that he was not jealous. After all, Obito had been planning to beat him up since Hinata Kumikawa injured Lin a long time ago, but he later softened up, but the goal of beating Kumokawa up has never changed.

However, from the beginning of this goal to now, Obito has never been cautious...

"There must be missions. Kumokawa-kun is already a chuunin. He can participate in more missions than us... But don't worry, he is very strong and will be fine~"

Lin also knew about the war, but she couldn't talk about this kind of thing to a little girl who was not a ninja. She could only comfort her with a few words.

"Yes, he is more powerful than Kakashi!"

Obito also responded in a symbolic way.

Illya got off Lin and looked left and right, only to realize that Kakashi was not with them, nor was the handsome yellow-haired man.

"Hey~ Where's Kakashi, and that uncle?"

"Minato-sensei has a mission, Kakashi...he's going home first."

"Oh...when will Yunchuan and the others come back?"

"It should be soon~"

Lin raised her hand and rubbed Illya's hair. It felt so good and so white, it was really hard to put it down.

She also hopes that both Minato-sensei and Kumokawa will return to the village soon.

When everyone comes back, the war will be over...

……

……

"Captain, new orders."

The snake landed next to Hinata Kumikawa and unfolded the small scroll.

Hinata Kumokawa's eyes stayed on her mask for half a second, and he took the scroll. The contents inside made him frown.

Stop monitoring the main force of the coalition forces, return to the Land of Rain, and support Orochimaru's troops with intelligence.

Moving the battlefield is definitely dangerous for the team.

After all, current surveillance only requires rough observation. After all, the target is very large and basically will not come into contact with the opponent's ninja team. They have been hiding outside the enemy's perception range and are very comfortable except for sleeping in the open air.

But according to intelligence, the Iwa Ninja troops have already invaded the Land of Rain.

That means he has already fought against Konoha and was at a disadvantage.

And Hinata Kumikawa didn't know that team well, didn't know the details of the other team, and he had already entered the Land of Rain... which violated the agreement with Hanzo.

At this time, I went to the Land of Rain and got caught. If this ninja demigod caught me and held me accountable...

It feels bad.

But this was Danzo's mission. Directly transferring the Hyuga Kumikawa team to Orochimaru was a mission that had to be carried out.

Moreover, this side has fallen into a state of protracted war. The two ninjas of Thunder and Earth seem to have differences. Konoha has a slight upper hand, the Kingdom of Thunder seems to be preparing to retreat, and Hyuga Kumikawa and others can no longer play their role.

after all……

Hinata Kumokawa would not risk his life to go in and explore where the central figure of the team was resting, and it was unlikely that Danzo would send ninjas to assassinate the Kage... After all, the Raikage of Kumogakure Village had been confirmed to be in the team, and the other way There were no Kumo ninjas at all.

The next step will definitely be a long stalemate. The few of them are really useless and will not participate in a direct battle. Moreover, at this moment, a small group of ninjas in the main force have spread out like irregularly moving elements. There is no need to monitor such tasks. Several people.

It's just that it's safer to be monitored by white-eyed ninjas...

Put the scroll in your pocket.

Hinata Kumokawa asked a few people to check the reserves. There were not many soldiers' food pills left, so someone took out a psychic scroll, summoned four boxes of soldiers' food pills and distributed them, and then took out a map to plan the route to Yuyin Village.

I had predicted the advance route of the Iwa Ninja troops before, but this time I happened to bypass it.

It's a pity that Danzo didn't tell him the route of a ninja force he had dispatched, otherwise Hinata Kumikawa would have had a reference. But now that more than half a month has passed, the presence or absence of that ninja force is another matter...

……

……

Rain Ninja Village, top tower.

Hanzo locked himself in the room, and on the desk was the information sent by his subordinates.

It's all bad news.

The Konoha troops failed in the first battle. They misjudged the Iwa Ninja's marching speed and were blocked by the Iwa Ninja in the Land of Rain. The ninjas in the rear were also ambushed by the Iwa Ninja troops. They were ambushed and suffered heavy losses due to wrong intelligence.

And Amegakure Village ignored Konoha's border crossing. Who knows if Amegakure Village will be angry after its victory...

Hanzo raised his head, thinking about the past, and finally pinched the bridge of his nose and released his clenched right fist.

Forget it, neither he nor the Rain Ninja Village had the same bloody spirit as before, and there were no longer so many ninjas who supported him. Moreover, by interfering in the battle between the two great powers, the Country of Rain was completely involved.

At that time, the entire Kingdom of Rain will become a battlefield instead of the current northwest border.

and so……

Let them go~

At this time, the defeated Konoha ninja and the Iwa ninja who had won their first victory both set up camp and began to spread out their small teams to carry out a standard ninja annihilation battle... Ninjas have never been a profession suitable for large groups to fight against each other. Underhand tactics are the norm.

a few days later.

The Kumokawa team marched from the territory of the Land of Earth to the border of the Land of Rain.

After contacting Orochimaru, Hyuga Kumokawa's first task was to find the opponent's commander, and then notify Orochimaru to help him assassinate the enemy commander.

Obviously, this is a dangerous mission.

The Konoha side has not yet determined which battlefield Tsuchikage Onoki is on. Even if he is not on the Rain Kingdom battlefield, he is still trying to sneak in a bunch of ninja teams making irregular movements and traps everywhere.

The difficulty is not that high...
