Chapter 99 Encounter!

In the early morning, before the sun has risen, the forest is shrouded in a veil-like mist.

A few figures flitted quickly between the treetops, and pieces of leaves fluttered from the branches and slowly fell to the ground.

"Captain Hatake, we are about to arrive at the border of the River Country, don't we need to pretend?"

The few people who shuttled through the woods were the Hatake Sakumo team who set off from Konoha to the sand ninja village to investigate the reason for the dispatch of the sand ninja troops.There are a total of six people in their team, led by Hiruzaru Sarutobi's most trusted secret leader, Sakumo Hatake.And with Hatake Sakumo on this mission is the newly promoted captain of the dark section, Uzumaki Jiuming.

As well as several leaders of Konoha's younger generation today, Shikahisa Nara, Kaiichi Yamanaka, Choza Akimichi, and Shiwei Aurome, the mistress of insects.

The six of them formed a spy team and set off from Muye Village to the Kingdom of Wind five days ago.Now, and has arrived at the border of the country of fire, and is about to enter the country between the country of fire and the country of wind, the country of rivers.

"In the country of the river, there is no need for any special camouflage. Put away our forehead guards and knife bags, and put on the clothes of ordinary people, and you will not be able to tell the difference."

The leader, Hatake Sakumo, said a word without looking back, and then buried his head on his way.

The country of rivers is a small country sandwiched between the two big countries, the country of fire and the country of wind. The whole country is very rich in fresh water resources and densely covered with rivers. The name of the country of rivers is also named because of this characteristic.Although the map of Naruto World is not very big, but here, there are actually racial distinctions.

The country with the most distinctive features is of course the Land of Thunder. In the Land of Thunder, there are many brown people with distinctive features.As for the celebrities living in the Land of Rivers, their ethnic characteristics and lifestyles are similar to those of the densely forested Land of Fire.

Therefore, as long as the ninjas of Konoha appear in the country of rivers without obvious identification marks on their bodies, they can easily blend into the local crowd.

And the first target of their team's investigation was the Kingdom of Rivers adjacent to the Kingdom of Wind.

If the Kingdom of the Wind really intends to fight Konoha, then there should be a lot of sand ninjas infiltrating the Kingdom of the River today.

Turbulent Town.

A small town located on the west side of the country of the river, a small town with a sparse foreign population, ushered in a group of business travelers this morning.After the business travelers entered the town, they booked a hotel in the center of the town. Afterwards, many businessmen wandered around the town and bought a lot of local specialties.

"Captain Hakura, the scattered ninjas reported that there was no trace of Sandai Kazekage."

"It seems that Master Kazekage is not in this town."

The third floor of the hotel is the most high-end room in the hotel. In one of the east wing rooms, a young man in gray cloth is half-kneeling in front of a girl, reporting.

The girl's long green hair was draped over her shoulders, and two strands of yellow bangs on her forehead covered part of the girl's cheeks.The girl was wearing a long gray dress and was sitting on a chair. She was looking at a scroll in her hand with a serious expression.Hearing the report from his subordinates, he picked up a pen by the table and drew a cross somewhere on the scroll.

"Let's expand the search range. If there is still no trace of Kazekage-sama within ten kilometers, we will go to the next stop."

The girl stood up from her seat and gave a new order. Her subordinates disappeared into the wing room instantly after receiving the news.

It turned out that the business traveler who booked the hotel here was not a real businessman, but a ninja team sent from Sand Ninja Village in the Land of Wind to search for the missing Kazekage.They pretended to be ordinary merchants and launched a carpet-like search in the country of rivers.

"Master Kazekage has been missing for a month, and after searching so many places, if he cannot be found in the River Country."

"Then Kazekage-sama is probably really killed."

"The person who can kill Kazekage-sama silently from our Sand Ninja Village, who has such strength, may be the only one called Konoha Hokage who is called Ninja Ninja, as Chiyo Elder said!"

Ye Cang whispered softly, and the scroll in her hand burned instantly. Ye Cang seemed unable to feel the burning sensation of the flame, and let the scroll burn into fly ash in her hand.

After a long time, Yecang's door opened suddenly and there was another movement.

"Report! Six suspicious persons were found five kilometers outside Turbulent Town!"

The door of the wing room was not opened, but the voice of the report from outside came into the room.Ye Cang's face darkened, and he asked aloud:

"Suspicious whereabouts? What is the identity of the other party? Didn't you investigate?"

"Report! Those six people are all wearing the clothes of ordinary people, but judging from the other party's behavior patterns, they should be ninjas."

"The opponent's vigilance is very strong, and the approach of our talents has aroused the vigilance of the opponent."

Sand Shinobi outside the door reported here, and heard a soft sound from inside the room, and the next second, the door was pushed open.

The neatly dressed Ye Cang came out of the room.She has faded away from her long gray dress, and replaced it with a heroic ninja uniform. She also wears the half-armor with sand ninja characteristics on her body. She is carrying a short knife behind her back. She is looking at her subordinate with a serious expression at this time .

"Take me there. Appearing in the hinterland of River Country at this time, the other party is likely to be a ninja from Konoha Village."

"Let's find out the news from them!"

Saying that, Ye Cang quickly dodges away, and the sand ninja immediately catches up and helps to lead Ye Cang.Don't look at Ye Cang as a girl, and she is only in her teens.But Ye Cang is a well-known excellent ninja in the ninja world, and she has made a name for herself in the ninja world early with the limit of burning blood.

And successfully took charge of a team of Sand Ninja Anbu, and performed tasks alone.

"Guru Guru~"

The clear river passes through the forest, and after passing through the river two kilometers away, you can reach Turbulent Town in the hinterland of the country of rivers.Before entering the town, Uzumaki Jiuming and others replenished fresh water resources under the instruction of Hatake Sakumo.

A few people were distributed on the bank of the river, using bamboo tubes to fill the clear river water.

"Captain Hatake is really careful. Afraid of any conspiracy in the town, he asked us to store fresh water early."

Shikahisa Nara glanced back at Sakumo Hatake who was standing in the distance watching the wind, and said with a smile.This time he came out with Hatake Sakumo to carry out the mission, but learned a lot of useful knowledge from each other.It was only a few days together, and Nara Shikahisa was full of admiration for Hatake Sakumo.

"Tons, tons, tons!"

"What, the captain is too careful. I haven't encountered any enemies for so many days. How could someone come to the town to plot against us?"

After Qiu Dao Dingzuo gulped down a few mouthfuls of water, he wiped the corner of his mouth and said.

"Don't say that, Captain Hatake is a respectable person."

Yamanaka Kai patted Ding Zuo on the shoulder and said with a smile.While the few of them were chatting, Whirlpool Jiuming was squatting beside them. The bamboo tube in his hand was completely submerged in the river water, but no bubbles emerged from the mouth of the bamboo tube.

However, Whirlpool Jiuming didn't seem to notice that the bamboo tube filled with water was full, and was staring closely at the woods on the other side of the river, as if he could see something through the woods.

"Jiuming, your bamboo tube is already full." Nara Shikahisa saw Jiuming's ecstasy, and kindly reminded him.

"It's coming towards us! It's a large army, with more than [-] people!"
