Chapter 108 Infiltration

Sasuke didn't change it in one breath.

After hesitating for a moment, he asked in a cautious tone: "Uncle Nara, since you took the initiative, why didn't you choose to help Terumi Mei?"

Support the rebellion?

Shikaku glanced at Sasuke and cursed in his heart: What kind of fine tradition of the Uchiha family is this.

But he said calmly: "Theoretically, both sides can be the targets of our bets.

"But as the official diplomatic team representing Konoha, all our actions symbolize Konoha's will. So, we actually have no choice.

“Help the Fourth Mizukage, we are a responsible big country that cares about peace and maintains regional stability.

"But by helping Terumi Mei, we will become a hegemonic country that interferes in the internal affairs of other countries and even conspires to subvert other countries' regimes. By then, there will definitely be a big fuss in the world by other people with ulterior motives."

"."

"What if we are not official representatives?"

After everyone was silent for a while, Hyuga Neji was the first to speak and asked.

Nara Shikaku glanced at Neji with slight surprise.

I applauded in my heart, but I didn't expect that this boy who was not part of the plan could actually think of this.

"That's right! As for Terumi Mei's side. If we want to exert influence on Konoha, we must contact it secretly or even privately. It is definitely not a battle like this!"

“So, the third option is to split the current team and go to the Kingdom of Water in small groups to have close contact with Terumi Mei and others.

"Judge its strength and wait for the opportunity to act!"

This is also the most preferred choice in Lu Jiu's heart.

As the leader of Konoha's official diplomatic team, his only choice was to wait or help the Fourth Mizukage.

But as a member of Konoha's decision-making team, he was very aware of the Fourth Mizukage's avoidance and repetition in the diplomatic field in the past few years.

In Shikaku's view, the Fourth Mizukage was not a qualified negotiation partner, nor was he a qualified leader.

In previous contacts, Shikaku discovered that this person's diplomatic style did not put the interests of the Kingdom of Water first, and his behavior was treacherous and elusive.

Therefore, when the Fifth Hokage assigned him the mission of this visit, Shikaku was originally relatively pessimistic.

He knew very well that the Fourth Mizukage was incompetent.

However, the fifth generation Hokage's idealistic spirit and his view of trying everything still drove Shikaku to come to this place.

At this time, the emergence of information about Terumi Mei and others is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for Shikaku.

"The civil war in Water Country continues, and the political and legal system is harsh. There is no endorsement from Konoha's official team, and there is no show of goodwill from the beheading sword.

"This vanguard team goes deep into it. The danger is self-evident."

Everyone was silent.

"At the same time, the mission objectives they shoulder are also very complex. They are not the simple protection or killing in the past, and require extremely strong on-the-spot judgment capabilities.

“Therefore, this vanguard team needs to have super combat capabilities to deal with possible dangers.

"You also need to have enough brains to deal with Terumi Mei and even more forces. Unless you are the best ninja, you can't accomplish it."

"There is no doubt that I am the best ninja!"

Uzumaki Naruto said solemnly.

"."

There seemed to be a crow flying across the sky.

Nara Lu Jiu was not heard, and continued: "Therefore, this time the pioneer, composed of two of our teams in our team, is Uchiha Sasuke, and Narachun!" "Uncle Lu Jiu, let let I'll go too! If you need to fight, I can also help."

Hinata Neji was worried and applied earnestly.

"No. The purpose of this infiltration is still to collect intelligence. The more people involved, the more eye-catching it will be. Besides, your white eyes are too eye-catching and are not suitable for infiltration work."

Nara Shikaku responded.

"But."

Neji wanted to say something else. Shikaku looked at Uchiha Sasuke and said calmly: "Speaking of which, Kimimaro will definitely go with us, right?"

He had not forgotten the other purpose of this mission.

After hearing this, Neji stopped insisting.

At present, Kimimaro may not be Konoha's companion, but he must be Sasuke's companion.

If there is a battle, Kimimaro's role must be far greater than his own.

Sasuke nodded.

"What about me?! Are we just going to stay in the Country of Waves like this? Why should we give up all the limelight to this kid?"

Uzumaki Naruto said urgently. Before he could finish his words, he was severely interrupted by Nara Shikaku:

"Naruto! This is not the time for you to be willful! This matter concerns the interests of tens of thousands of villagers and ninjas in Konoha. You can't talk about the limelight!"

After a moment of pause, Nara Shikaku's tone softened slightly: "Personally, I like your enthusiasm very much. But many things in the ninja world cannot be accomplished with just passion. This is especially true this time."

This combination of soft and hard punches made Naruto not sure how to react.

Nara Shikaku turned his head and continued:

"If there are no objections, we will arrange for you two to set off immediately tomorrow morning. With ten days as the deadline, no matter whether you succeed or not, you must return to the Country of Waves to join us."

"If we fail to come back, we will follow the first option, which is to visit through normal diplomacy with the Fourth Mizukage, enter the Kingdom of Water, and search for and respond to you."

And that means that this mission was a complete failure.

Nara Shikaku didn't say these last words, but both Sasuke and Shikamaru knew the meaning very well.
-

The sea, merchant ship, above the deck.

The warm winter sun hangs high in the sky at noon, and the cold wind eases slightly.

The sea surface undulated quietly, like a huge gray-blue carpet.

According to old sailors, this is rare good weather.

"Sneaking into the Kingdom of Water and sneaking into the Kirigakure Village are two completely different things."

Tanaka Ryota, dressed as a businessman, appeared next to Sasuke and others again, trying his best to sound like a casual chat.

If it weren't for Dazna's repeated requests, he would not have been willing to wade into this muddy water anyway.

More than a year ago, he was just a small clerk under Caddo Company.

Until Kado was killed by Zabuza, everything in the company was divided up by several directors. The big shots were eager to cash in and sell, and their lives were turned around.

First, he received a severance package from the Cardo Company. Later, with the construction of the Naruto Bridge, private commerce in the Country of Waves became increasingly prosperous.

He also saw the opportunity and tried to form this merchant ship to travel between the Kingdom of Waves and the Kingdom of Water.

After more than a year of hard work, a new chapter in life has finally begun.

In a sense, the members of Team 7 of Konoha Hidden Village are indeed their benefactors.
