"Everyone will continue to carry out the original deployment, and other border security tasks will remain unchanged."
"I'll take over here from now on."
The three ANBU looked at each other.
They don't know the strength of Naruto, but Lord Hokage has personally confessed that this mission will be led by Naruto Uzumaki, and all ANBU members will cooperate with his arrangements unconditionally.
The three of them bowed slightly toward Naruto, took two steps back, and their figures quickly blended into the shadows of the woods.
After ANBU left, Naruto found a hilltop with a wide view, found a flat rock on the top of the hill and sat down, patted the seat next to it and motioned for Boruto to sit down too.
Looking north from this angle, Land of Hot Water has a panoramic view of rolling hills and winding rivers, and the setting sun is slowly sinking behind the distant mountains.
"Let's wait here!"
"Okay, Dad!"
Boruto sat down next to Naruto, his legs dangling from the edge of the rock.
He secretly glanced at Naruto. This was his first time doing a mission with his father, and it was in another time and space.
Sitting side by side on the Fire Country border with a father who was younger and sharper than he remembered, waiting for the enemy to arrive.
This feeling is so amazing, a bit unreal.
"Don't just sit there."
"Flying Raijin Scroll for you, take a look now while you have time."
At this moment, Naruto's voice pulled Boruto out of his wild thoughts. "I don't have high demands on you. Even if you can't learn it for the time being, you must keep all the Formula diagrams and theories in your mind."
"Just remember it first, and you'll have plenty of time to practice slowly later."
"Damn it, I was underestimated by my father again!"
Boruto heard this and clenched his fist, but this time he did not try to refute. Instead, he took out the scroll from his ninja bag and spread it out on his knees.
The complete Formula diagram of Flying Raijin Technique is drawn inside the scroll in extremely neat handwriting, and next to it are densely marked the cultivation essentials and introductory methods of space perception written by Minato Namikaze.
Looking at the complicated runes and coordinate calculation formulas on the Formula map, Boruto breathed lightly unconsciously.
This is something left by his grandfather, a "skill" passed down to him by his heroic grandfather whom he has never met.
Naruto looked at Boruto's focused side face, slightly curved the corners of his mouth, and then Hand Seals his hands.
A Perception Isolation Barrier slowly rose from around the top of the mountain, covering the two of them.
Just as Naruto was sitting and waiting, in the territory of Land of Hot Water, more than a dozen figures were jumping on the trees at high speed, and the explosion of Chakra left a fleeting glimmer of light in the night.
The leader was a bronze-skinned man with a tall build, and the knotted muscles on his shoulders and chest glowed like metal in the moonlight.
This person is none other than Kumogakure Fourth Raikage·Ai.
He turned his head while jumping and asked the person following him on his right:
"Hope, at this speed, how long will it take to reach the Fire Country border?"
hope, who was called, had yellow hair and a calm face. He adjusted his breathing during the jump, looked forward, and then did not look back, maintaining a forward-looking posture:
"Lord Raikage, maintain the current speed, it is expected to arrive at the Fire Country border in three hours."
Nozomi is Kumogakure's leading perceptive ninja. Even when moving at high speed, he always maintains a perceptual force field covering a warning range of several hundred meters in front and behind the entire team.
"It's boring."
Darui on the left interjected lazily, speaking without energy and not slowing down at all, "Hope, don't keep the sense on until Fire Country is reached, Chakra consumes too much."
"The key is to get to the border. It's not too late to use it then."
A looked back at hope and asked with concern.
"Are you okay, Nozomi?"
hope shook his head, and the yellow hair on his forehead was slightly blown by the wind.
"It doesn't matter, Lord Raikage, I can still sustain this consumption."
"But Lord Raikage, is it really worth spending so much effort for a brat?"
"From Kumogakure all the way to the Fire Country border, even if the other party is the orphan of Fourth Hokage, in the final analysis, he is just a kid who has just been promoted to Jōnin."
"Can't we just let ANBU at the border handle it?"
A was silent for a moment after hearing this,
The steps under my feet did not stop, and images from more than ten years ago appeared in my mind uncontrollably.
Minato Namikaze appeared from the void, a Kunai was nailed to the ground in front of him, and then Minato Namikaze appeared behind him.
At that time, he was covered in Thunder Release Chakra and drove at maximum speed, but he didn't even touch the corner of Namikaze Minato's clothes.
"Hope, you don't know how scary that man is."
A's voice deepened. "Although he has fallen, Konoha if another Yellow Flash appears..."
After saying this, he paused for a moment, and the branch under A's feet was bent sharply by his step, and when it straightened, he used the force to push him forward a big step:
"I don't want to see that happen."
"Let his son grow up, even if he only scratches the surface, it will be enough to affect the Shinobi World pattern in the next few decades."
"What's more, according to the intelligence, that kid's expression in Konoha Crush has recently become Direct Jōnin in Fifth Hokage."
"If you don't have certain strength..."
A said and looked forward.
"Boss, Tsuchikage has also been paying attention to this trend."
"We came all the way to the Fire Country border, will that old fox take the opportunity to stab us?"
At this moment, Darui put his hand on his forehead and glanced in the direction of Land of Earth.
"Ōnoki If that old guy dares to play dirty tricks, I'll blow his Land of Earth!"
A heard this and hit his left palm with his right fist, making a dull impact. "I have asked Killer B to stare at Land of Earth."
"If that old fox dares to move, he will know what Tailed Beast Bomb feels like."
"Besides, if he knew that we were here to suppress Konoha, it would be too late for him to be happy!"
"Forget it, just follow the boss."
"No matter where you go, there will always be a fight in the end."
Darui continued on his way lazily.
"Hurry up, I can't wait to see that man's child with my own eyes!"
The muscles in A's legs swelled violently, and the tree trunk under his feet was stepped on with spiderweb-like cracks at the moment he exerted his strength. His whole body accelerated towards the Fire Country border like a cannonball.
"Okay, Lord Raikage!"
Eleven figures behind him responded at the same time, and the lights of Chakra all lit up in the night, following closely behind.
Three hours later, it was completely dark.
The virgin forest at the junction of Land of Hot Water and Fire Country looks particularly deep in the night.
"Boss, the front is the Fire Country border."
Darui stopped on a thick tree, raised his hand and pointed to an open area ahead illuminated by the moonlight.
Beyond that open space is the territory of Fire Country.
A stood still on the tree, his burly figure casting a large shadow in the moonlight.
He glanced at the forest ahead. It was pitch black under the dense canopy of trees, and the conditions in the forest were completely unclear to the naked eye.
"Hope, explore the situation ahead."
"Got it, Lord Raikage."
hope closed his eyes, used his hands Hand Seals, and spread the sensory force field outward from the front fan-shaped area.
After a few seconds, he opened his eyes. "There are three ninjas ahead, Chakra with characteristics Konoha ANBU. They should be the sentry posts responsible for border security."
