Chapter 269 The early bird catches the worm, the early bird catches the worm

On the northwest border of the Land of Fire, an ANBU team was resting, and this team was led by Tatsuma. Sitting gently on the branches of the tree crown, Tatsuma said relaxedly:

"I didn't expect these people to be so impatient. It has only been less than forty-eight hours since our whereabouts were leaked. But being able to attract twenty people is really beyond my expectation."

At this time, Minato, who had lifted up half of his mask and was drinking water, guessed: "Maybe it's because our perception ability has not been exposed. Senior Earwig also hid it very well, and no one discovered his ability."

"Maybe if we appear together, others will think we are a three-person team. His presence is too low."

Huangjiu said half-jokingly, and Earwig adjusted his mask and said: "The ones you are talking about are our clan leader and young clan leader. I just look more popular, which is different from having a low sense of presence."

Listening to Arakawa's words, Tatsuma also thought of the young patriarch of the Aburame family, who was still his classmate. Why did he call him Aburame?

Unable to remember for a moment, Tatsuma did not continue thinking, but said: "These are all ninjas with rich experience in assassinations and counter-assassinations. Do you think when will they launch an attack on us at the earliest?"

"In two hours."

"Me too."

The Vulture and the Earwig gave their own answers. Minato thought for a while and said, "According to the speed at which they are approaching, two hours is a bit too short. The closer they get to us, the slower they will inevitably become.

I'd guess three hours, an extra half hour for travel, and an extra half hour for observation. "

"Monitor, what do you think?"

Huang Jiu looked at Tatsuma, who thought for a while and said, "Two and a half hours, I support what Mu Tu said, they will add half an hour to the trip, and use a slower speed in exchange for a safer approach.

But I don't think they will observe for an extra half hour. After all, the rest time for Anbu is not as long as ordinary sleep. Four hours is already the limit.

We have been resting in place for half an hour, and after two and a half hours it will be three hours. We are in the middle and late stages of rest, which is when attention is at its lowest, which is the most suitable time for them to launch an attack.

Moreover, it was close to five o'clock in the morning. If there were Kirigakure rebels among them, they would definitely cooperate with Kirigakure and use the morning mist to cover their whereabouts. "

"Then let's see who can guess the closest result then."

Huangjiu nodded with a smile, then stretched and said: "By the way, squad leader, earwig, and woodcutter, I'll leave the night watch to you. After all, I'm not good at sensing. I'd better rest more and prepare for the battle." Be prepared."

Although he was laughing, his tone was still a bit solemn. After all, he was surrounded by many rebel ninjas, how could he really relax.

In fact, Chenma had already explained everything to him and analyzed the pros and cons. Even Chenma, the squad leader, made it clear that if he didn't want to participate in the operation, Chenma could find someone to expedite his application for retirement.

But Araji didn't know what happened at the time, and suddenly agreed to Tatsuma's plan. What he wanted at that time was that he wanted to have a beautiful ending to his ANBU career.

Huang Jiu knew that his fighting talent was not very good, otherwise he would not have been assigned to a team dedicated to handling corpses.

Unlike Earwig, Earwig is suitable for the work of corpse disposal because of his talent and ability, while Huangjiu has limited abilities and can only join some non-combat teams.

Arakawa's application for retirement had been submitted before Tatsuma actually took over the team, but Anbu's retirement was never a simple matter.

Except for those specially approved, other ANBU ninjas who want to retire must pass a series of strict reviews and undergo a series of confidential training before they can officially leave.

What Huang Jiu originally wanted was to finish the last period of time honestly. He had done the same thing before following Tatsuma on missions. He didn't seek merit, but sought no faults.

But recently, his application for retirement has made progress, and the background check has been passed. After a while of process, confidential training for retirement can be arranged.

At this stage, Ajiu can actually apply for ANBU file sealing and calculation, and attendance is not compulsory. However, facing the squad leader who is less than half his age, Ajiu still agrees.

Perhaps it was Tatsuma's plan that aroused his heart that had stopped beating violently since the moment he accepted his mediocrity.

But this youthful spirit, like a flashback, could not last long. From the moment he stepped out of the village again, the heroic spirit was fading.

Although his mission as a ninja prevented him from flinching, the fearless mentality he had before leaving the village had been almost worn away.

Tatsuma heard something was wrong, but he did not expose it. Instead, he nodded and said, "Okay, but don't be lazy during the battle."

"Of course."

Huang Jiu nodded, and Tatsuma continued: "By the way, don't stay too far away from me during the battle. I just learned a few wind escapes. Please take a closer look and give me some corrections when the time comes."

Huang Jiu was stunned. His wind escape skills were not very good. Although he was a ninja from the Shimura clan, not every Shimura ninja was good at wind escape. But Huang Jiu quickly reacted and said:

"No problem. It's not convenient for us to have excessive contact after retirement. During this time, I will share more with you."

The conversation between the two was so natural that even Earwig didn't notice anything was wrong. He was just puzzled that Huangqiu's wind escape skills could actually point out the genius of the squad leader.

I didn't expect that after being a teammate for so many years, this guy, Huang Jiu, would still have a hand in him. Fortunately, he did the same.

"Then we'll have one shift every hour. I'll take the lead, then you, Senior Earwig, will take over, and finally, monitor, you'll be on duty for the last hour."

Minato didn't notice anything was wrong, especially since he knew that Tatsuma had been practicing Wind Release recently, and it was the Wind Release of the Shimura clan, so it was normal to ask a ninja from the Shimura clan for guidance.

Hearing Minato's suggestion, Earwig nodded. He didn't like to be in the limelight, nor did he like to give advice. It was good to just follow the arrangements quietly.

Naturally, Tatsuma would not refuse, especially in the last hour when he was most likely to be attacked, and he did not trust others to guard him.

They had been on the road for the past two days, and they really needed a break at this time. The communication stopped momentarily, and one person kept vigil while the other three rested.

Two hours later, Tatsuma woke up without any reminder from Earwig, and communicated with Earwig through gestures.

Then Earwig also began to rest, and Tatsuma sensed the surrounding situation again. The closest chakra to them was less than a kilometer away.

Such a distance is actually within the range of a surprise attack for a ninja. With the speed of a ninja, he can cross this distance extremely quickly and launch an attack.

However, those rebellious ninjas did not choose this way. After all, they were both cooperative and competitive.

Admittedly, Tatsuma plus Minato's bounty, even if divided among twenty people, was very generous, but these rebellious ninjas, the rebellious ninjas found so early, were all greedy people.

How could they trust their temporary teammates? Even while planning how to kill Chenma, he was also planning how to kill his teammates. How could such a team have a tacit understanding?

Therefore, one kilometer was still not safe enough for them. Chenma was not in a hurry, but pretended not to notice anything wrong and continued to wait.

Eight hundred meters. Seven hundred meters. Five hundred meters.

Sensing those chakra groups, Tatsuma did not wake up the others because they were approaching, because they were still within control.

However, fog also began to form at this time. The natural fog was mixed with the fog that obviously contained chakra reaction. Sure enough, among these rebel ninjas, there were Kirigakure rebels.

Of course, it is possible that the traitorous ninja learned the Kirigakure Jutsu from somewhere. After all, the Kirigakure Jutsu is not a difficult ninjutsu, and its learning difficulty can even be said to be the lowest level.

It’s just that the upper limit of this technique is very high. I heard from Hatake Sakumo that some strong men in Kirigakure Village can even use the Kirigakure technique to blind the chakra perception of sentient ninjas. This is because they have a thorough understanding of the changes in the properties of water chakra. A skill that can only be mastered.

Three hundred meters. Two hundred and fifty meters.

Tatsuma smiled slightly under his mask, that's almost it

"Bang! Boom boom boom~"

Suddenly, a series of explosions sounded, and the three Minatos, who were just resting and not really asleep, stood up instantly and entered a fighting state.

With Tatsuma's perception, it was discovered that this wave of explosions only caused slight damage to the two rebel ninjas. These people living underground know how to survive better than most ninjas.

Perhaps due to the effects of the explosion or injuries, Chenma found that six of the twenty people were out of touch, and some even turned around and left.

As for the remaining fourteen people, they accelerated towards this side. Soon, figures rushed out of the forest and surrounded the four Tatsuma.

Tatsuma quickly observed the fourteen people. Although he could not fully see the appearance of these people under the cover of the thick fog, he could still determine the identities of several of them based on some characteristics.

Although the rest were difficult to identify, Tatsuma had some estimate of their strength in his mind.

The value of a perceptive ninja goes beyond detecting hidden enemies, especially a perceptive ninja like Tatsuma who relies solely on chakra perception.

Although the Inuzuka and Aburame clans have a large number of sentient ninjas and have their own secret advantages, they also have shortcomings. For example, they cannot calculate the enemy's strength through the amount of chakra of the enemy.

Although the amount of chakra cannot be completely equated with strength, the vast majority of ninjas will still follow this rule. After all, in addition to the characteristics of the technique, the biggest impact of the power of the technique is the amount of chakra.

The more chakra, the more ninjutsu can be released, and the coverage and destructive power of the same ninjutsu can be enhanced. People with less chakra will always be restricted in this regard.

After easily judging the strength of the people in front of him, it was a bit tricky, but not to the point of being difficult. As an appetizer, Tatsuma was quite satisfied.

"Ding~"

Chenma also sounded the announcement at this time. It was the game two and a half hours ago. After receiving it, Chenma immediately started another game:

"I thought that only active ninjas would perform their tasks diligently. I didn't expect that you, as rebel ninjas, would be so diligent."

"I've heard that Sakamoto Tatsuma has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, but I didn't expect it to be true. But there is a reason why we came so early. After all, the early bird catches the worm."

Hearing this, Tatsuma chuckled, making the already somewhat funny Yasha mask look even more funny. He looked at these people and said, "Indeed, but everyone gets up early. Who is the bird and who is the worm? Not necessarily yet.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Tatsuma's figure disappeared, and a flash of silvery white light appeared in the thick fog.
