 “The selection is over!”

"Then the people who will participate in the training mission this time have been decided. You should prepare well and go to the main gate to meet up in the afternoon and prepare to leave the village to carry out the training mission!"

“Those students who didn’t make it to the selection don’t need to be discouraged. You’ll still have a chance next time, you know?”

 “Yes, Teacher Lin!”

 The training selection in the morning was proceeding at a rapid pace. As an elite Jonin cross-country, he must have obtained the training qualification effortlessly.

However, looking at the surroundings, looking at the excited students who were able to participate in the training tasks, and the faces of the weak students who had not passed the selection, a feeling that was difficult to express in words suddenly emerged in the cross country heart. taste.

 The most real thought in cross country’s heart may be to feel pity for those students who passed the selection!

“Obviously he is the most outstanding student in this class, but he may not be able to come back because of this training mission.”

"Perhaps, those ninjas who failed to pass the selection will feel some comfort knowing that passing the selection is equivalent to stepping into the door of hell."

“And Uchiha Itachi, my future Itachi god”

“You passed the selection, and it’s very likely that your future will be ruined, did you know?”

His eyes gradually fell on Itachi God, and he found that Itachi God was looking at him expectantly. Off-road couldn't help but sigh.

 Unfortunately, the results of the selection are not eligible for cross-country changes, and even Lin is not eligible for any changes.

Therefore, Cross Country can only think silently, while completing the special instructions of the Fourth Hokage, while keeping these ninja school students as safe as possible.

As for Lin, and the future Weasel God, it can be said that they must be on the off-road protection list.

After all, Rin, who is the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tailed Iso, and the Itachi God that she likes very much in the original plot, must not perish from the perspective of off-roading!

 Where are the other ninja school students?

Off-roaders can only ensure their safety as much as possible. After all, off-roaders now have no idea how dangerous the training mission is.

 Then, after returning home and making adequate preparations, Cross Country successfully gathered with Lin, Itachi God and others with a feeling of apprehension.

When gathering, Lin just said some words of encouragement, and with an excited expression, the students who left Konoha Village for the first time to carry out the training mission embarked on the journey of this training mission.

But on the way, what surprised even Cross Country was that when he was following the pace of the team in front of him, which could be said to be very slowly moving forward, Itachi, who was originally following Lin at the front of the team, followed Lin. God actually slowed down his pace slowly, came to the side of Cross Country and asked:

“Cross-country, you have a question today. Is there any special situation that will occur in the training mission we are going to perform?”

"Um?"

 On the surface, Cross Country was very calm, not even looking at the Weasel God.

But in my heart, the cross-country journey has stirred up turbulent waves!

As early as the understanding of the plot of the original work, Cross Country knew that the wisdom of God Weasel was far beyond what ordinary people could imagine. Even the Third Hokage praised Itachi when he was young, as he could think almost like a Hokage. However, when he really discovered that Itachi had a pair of eyes that could see the truth, Cross Country was inevitably a little surprised.

However, if he had not made friends with Uchiha Shisui, then Cross Country and the Uchiha clan could be said to be enemies, so naturally there would be no need to explain anything to God Itachi. After all, Cross Country was performing a secret mission, and even Lin didn't know the true content of the mission. Was it necessary for Cross Country to report to a Itachi God who wasn't even a genin?

 However, the situation became different at this time.

On the one hand, the relationship between Cross Country and Uchiha Shisui is very good. In addition, the relationship between Cross Country and Itachi God is also good, and the relationship between Cross Country and Itachi God is ravaged every day. Cross Country needs to protect the ungrown Itachi God in the training mission. .

On the other hand, discovering the wisdom and vision of the Weasel God may help you.

 So, while still remaining indifferent on the surface, Cross Country smiled and suddenly made a seal in front of the Weasel God!

"That is."

 “Is that the secret technique of the Nara clan?”

 The next second, he suddenly saw the cross-country seal. Almost subconsciously, the Weasel God, who had been ravaged by cross-country many times, prepared to escape.

Who would have thought that the speed of forming cross-country seals is faster, and the speed of shadows spreading under the feet is even faster.

Just when the shadow at the foot of the cross-country was connected with the shadow of God Weasel, a bitter taste appeared in God Weasel's eyes.

 Obviously, God Itachi thought that he was unhappy with going off-road, and wanted to teach himself a lesson using the secret techniques of the Nara clan.

However, when the eyes of the Weasel God were full of bitterness, and the recent cultivation of his mind was still unable to catch up with the pace of Cross Country, Cross Country, who used the shadow communication technique to successfully connect to the shadow of the Weasel God, directly said in the spiritual communication:

"Itachi, you know Shisui's identity. I am Shisui's friend. You should also understand my identity."

“So, there are certain things that you just need to know, and there is no need to tell others.”

“Remember, you must not be in the limelight during the training mission. Our situation is actually very dangerous, do you understand?”

During the spiritual communication, Cross Country's instructions to God Weasel naturally made God Weasel nod silently.

After that, the smart Weasel God didn’t ask Cross Country any questions and just followed Cross Country’s instructions.

After seeing the performance of God Weasel, Cross Country couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart, God Weasel is indeed a smart man!

“Presumably even when he fought with me, God Itachi was deliberately hiding something, right?”

“Alas, once you enter a wealthy family, it’s as deep as the sea. Itachi is a member of the wealthy Uchiha clan. Even if you try your best to compete with others, you can’t reveal your own secrets. How pitiful!”

“However, the Weasel God is the Weasel God, and it is really easy to talk to smart people!”

"Huh? Are there any robbers ahead? Sure enough, Lin's information is unreliable, so let's take a look at the performance of these little guys!"

　　I thought to myself that Cross Country was naturally hidden among the students of the Ninja School. He was really just like a very ordinary member among the many students.

Moreover, when those students were fighting with a few bandits, Cross Country really had no intention of taking action and was just watching the students perform. On the contrary, Itachi God's low-keyness was unexpected by Cross Country, but after thinking of Itachi God's wisdom and vision, a smile gradually appeared in the eyes of Cross Country when he looked at Itachi God.

Just like that, in the next few days, everything seemed so normal.

Off-road, Itachi is still hiding among the students of the ninja school, without any outstanding performance.

The progress of the experience mission was also very smooth. Even when doing cross-country, I felt that I was a little too nervous before.

However, if Cross Country knows what is happening in Konoha Village now, then his slightly relaxed nerves will definitely become tense.

 Because, just three days after going cross-country to participate in the training mission, the Third Hokage in the Hokage's office became angry at the Fourth Hokage for the first time!

"Minato! The result of one compromise may be more concessions. Don't you understand this?"

“Who is it? Who asked you to send you privately across the country to carry out the mission?”

“Others don’t understand, don’t you understand?”

"Whether it's cross-country, Lin, or the outstanding juniors in the village, they may die because of your compromise!"
