He carefully examined the three of them.

I memorized their individual characteristics!

As the figure of Company Commander Hatake walked out of the house.

Looking at the three little ones in front of him, Sawagen Senju said with a smile, "Don't stand there, there aren't so many rules here, hurry up and sit down!"

After saying that, he didn't even look at the three little ones who had taken their seats.

He bent down, took out a pre-arranged File from the drawer, and handed it over, saying, "Starting today, you will be spending most of your time on the South Battlefield."

"This is the first task I'm giving you."

Take a closer look!

He nodded upon hearing this and took the File.

Uka Senju immediately activated her powers and began a careful inspection with her two teammates.

Task Level: A

Mission type: Long-term warfare.

Mission credentials: Confirmed by Front Line command.

Mission location: Akifuku Castle, at the border between the Fire and Bear Kingdoms; further arrangements will be made by the Front Line command.

Mission Details: Carry out all means of operation, including cleanup, assassination, and warfare, according to orders from the Front Line command!

Client: South Battlefield Command Center

Although I've only been on duty for a year.

However, Uka Senju and the others had already taken on quite a few missions.

This was the first time they had ever seen anything like this!

The information recorded here includes the client and the task level.

However, there was absolutely no useful information.

Instead of using this, it would be better to just say, "Go to the Front Line and follow orders!"

In other words, the client was the ' South Battlefield Command Center '. If they received a similar request from someone else in the village...

Uka Senju dares to guarantee that the person who accepted the mission won't need to take action.

When the mission is released, the people who receive it can beat the employer's shit out!

Somewhat speechless, he put down the thing he was holding, which contained almost no information.

Uka Senju continued to wait for the person behind the table to inform them of the specific tasks to be carried out this time.

He only knew from his Clan's previous actions that they were going to take action against the Land of Bears.

And this time, the Deputy Commander is Senju Chiharu.

As for the specific details, or what he actually came here to do...

That's something we'll have to wait for the other person to arrange!

Because of his position Uka had access to a lot of information, so he wasn't surprised when he saw this.

But the two people beside them could see through this extremely simple and blurry object.

I've confirmed what Uka told me before!

"War has broken out!"

"It's about to begin!"

They exchanged a glance, and the information involuntarily surfaced in their minds.

Seeing that the three of them looked up and stopped looking, Uka's expression revealed his speechlessness.

Sawagen Senju chuckled and said, "Don't be fooled by how vague it is; your mission is exactly what's written on it."

"Due to our limited capabilities, the specific details of your mission will need to be Front Line by the Front Line command."

"In other words, you are directly subordinate to the Front Line Headquarters."

"And what you need to do in this war depends on how the Front Line are organizing things!"

"So your first priority right now is to get to the Front Line immediately."

"As for the time, just make sure you arrive before 10 a. m. tomorrow!"

The Clan wanted Uka Senju to be in charge of part of the war to train her.

But given Uka's current strength... leading Middle Unit would require the entire Middle Unit to be composed of Senju members.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to gain the trust of the people!

Today, the Front Line teams are composed of the Clan's elite.

Even the lowest-ranking squad leader in the game is Special Jōnin!

This allowed a Special Jonin to sit on the heads of a group of Jonin.

You have to understand that those who go to the Front Line are risking their lives.

In this situation, he had no choice but to place Uka under the Headquarters headquarters.

This way, Uka can get some training.

Besides letting them observe a complete war.

The Headquarters will also provide manpower to Uka Uka as needed, allowing him to perform tasks and gain better training.

Hearing this, the three exchanged a glance and understood what the other person meant.

Nodding, Uka Senju conjured a map of the Land of Fire in her mind.

The three of them set off from Konoha and arrived at Ihyo Castle around 4 PM.

And the border Akifuku Castle is located at roughly the same distance!

Please arrive at 10 AM tomorrow.

Looking at the man opposite her, whom she should call her grandfather, Uka Senju stood up and bowed, saying, "Understood, Lord Sawagen."

"Time is tight, so let's get ready to leave now!"

The two people and their dog also stood up and bowed, just like their friends.

Nodding slightly, Sawagen Senju looked at the three little ones opposite him and said with a smile, "Go on, don't be late."

"Go directly to the Logistics department to get any supplies you need!"

"Yes!" the three responded and left the office.

They walked out along the corridor, leaving the guarded area.

Aburame Kaun shook her head speechlessly and said, "Actually, it would be better to just let us go to Akifuku directly. I don't know what the adults are thinking by stopping here for a while."

Hearing her friend's words, Uka Senju shrugged and said, "I don't know either, but it's probably just part of the process to have them come here specifically?"

"Or rather, let us be the ones to lend our names!"

He couldn't understand it either.

Although the directions to Yibing and Akifuku are the same.

But it will still waste more than an hour.

If this were in the clan's territory, I would definitely have asked.

But on the Front Line, the person in charge is on the other side, so you have no choice but to follow orders!

"Lord Sawagen just said we can go to the Logistics to replenish supplies. Is there anything you need to replenish?" Not participating in the previous conversation, Inuzuka Furin turned to look at her two friends and asked.

Hearing his friend's words, he thought about the supplies he was carrying.

Uka Senju nodded to the two of them and said, "Go, why not go? Get more!"

"We don't know what will happen next, but having more supplies is always a good thing."

Upon hearing this, they smiled and walked towards the Logistics department together with Uka.

After receiving my share according to the rules...

Consider the current time.

Uka Senju then took the two of them to have a meal in the city.

After resolving their personal matters, the three people and their dog left the city and headed towards their next destination!

The Yūhi.

The clouds, dyed red by the setting sun, are about to disappear on the horizon.

Inside the Lord's Ibaraha Castle Lord's Residence in the Land of Fire.

Inside a grand hall.

The waiter lit the candles on both sides.

This grand hall, steeped in tradition and rejecting modern technology, was once again illuminated.

"Creak!"

The wooden hinges clicked, and the palace doors closed again, shutting out the light.

At this moment, a man sitting in the head seat, dressed in a black kimono, with sharp features and exuding middle-aged charm, spoke up, "The day the plan begins is not far off."

"Everyone, how are your preparations going?"

The magnetic voice resonated in the ears of the people on both sides of the stage due to the special structure.

Upon hearing the question from the head of the household, a burly man in full armor, standing at the head of the right, straightened up, clasped his hands in a salute, and said, "Your Highness, the troops have been assembled and recruited, totaling 130,000 men."

"Each soldier has undergone at least three months of training."

"Whether it's direct combat or suppressing local forces, you can rest assured!"

As the burly man's rough voice faded away...

An elderly man at the head of the left side also rose and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, the officials and clerks willing to relocate have all been recruited."

"Due to confidentiality reasons, they haven't been notified of the specific time yet."

"But once you give the order, I can guarantee they can pack their things and set off within ten days."

Upon hearing the time mentioned by the person on the left, the middle-aged man in black at the head of the table frowned slightly.

There was indeed a time constraint involved, but these civil officials were far too slow!

Noticing the change in the leader's mood, the people on the right couldn't help but wear mocking smiles.

Realizing that the task had not been handled properly, the chief on the left quickly signaled to his companion to speak as soon as possible.

Upon receiving the hint, the second middle-aged man on the left quickly spoke up before the one on the right could, saying, "Your Highness, all the provisions and supplies for the plan have been prepared."

All the grain available on the market has been stored in warehouses.

"The first batch of laborers for the transfer has been assembled!"

Just as the person on the right was about to Inoshita, the second person interrupted him.

When they saw that the leader had regained his composure after hearing the message, they quickly swallowed their previous thoughts.

Then the second person on the right spoke up, "Your Highness, in addition to the main force, the Assistant Minister of War has also recruited 100,000 men."

"The families of these 230,000 people are also willing to follow in your footsteps to the Land of Bears."

Upon hearing this number, the elderly man in the third seat on the left, dressed in a magnificent kimono, twitched his eyebrows involuntarily.

He hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Your Highness, this old minister is incompetent; so far, only a little over two hundred thousand people have been selected for relocation."

"But I can guarantee that when news of your departure spreads, this number will at least double!"

The numbers in the first sentence were unpleasant, and the person in the head seat couldn't help but frown.

Because this number was far from his expectations.

You should know that the people there are from an enemy country.

Other cities may not matter, but the capital's people need sufficient support from the Land of Fire to achieve complete stability.

But the guarantee in the second sentence.

It reminded him of the current situation where critical information is kept secret.

Are there still so many people?

From this perspective, perhaps our previous assumptions were indeed somewhat unrealistic!

Once the information is released and the time and place of departure are known to the public.

If there is indeed a figure guaranteed by subordinates.

So, while remaining innocent, he could still provide a life of wealth and honor to this old minister who had served him for many years!

And those who signed up without knowing the details!

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Record the information of both groups of people carefully."

"Once the Capital is cleared, the first group of people will be given priority to move in!"

Those seated on either side of the person in the head seat understood the meaning behind the words spoken by the person in the head seat.

They bowed in unison and said, "Your Highness's boundless grace and love for the people are beyond our gratitude!"

Hearing the unanimous praise from below, he did not lose himself in it.

The middle-aged head monk, his expression unchanged, waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Continue!"

"Yes, it's *x!" came the unanimous reply.

Straightening up, the fourth middle-aged man on the left, dressed in a magnificent silk robe, bowed and said, "Your Highness, the army's advance route and the relocation route have been planned by your ministers and the generals."

"All you need to do now is send a letter to the nobles along the way to convey goodwill, and your army and troops will have no obstacles in their passage."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man in black at the head of the table nodded to indicate that he understood.

With his movements.

The remaining people also stood up one by one and reported on their respective responsibilities.

After a brief report to His Highness...

I now have a clear understanding of all the information.

The middle-aged man in black at the head of the table smiled gently and said, "You've all done a very good job preparing. Now it's up to you to see how well you execute it!"

"If the mission is successfully completed, everyone will receive a corresponding reward during the grand ceremony."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" they all said in unison.

Only then did everyone realize the meaning behind the leader's words.

If we're looking at execution, does that mean the plan is about to begin?

Realizing this, everyone turned their gaze toward the person in the head seat.

When I first received the chief's demanding requirements.

They were all experiencing waves of discomfort.

If it weren't for the immense allure of the founding of the nation, many would probably have given up long ago!

It can be improved step by step as the plan is developed.

They all eagerly awaited the time when the real plan would be implemented.

But I never expected it to happen in such a routine meeting today.

Is this really what they've been hoping for?

He noticed the burning desire in his subordinates' eyes.

The middle-aged man in black at the head of the group smiled gently and said, "Everyone, the plan officially begins from this moment!"

This confirmed everyone's thoughts.

He glanced around, his expression turning serious as he looked at the now excited crowd and said in a deep voice, " Tani Re Gu!"

A majestic voice echoed throughout the hall.

I never expected the first order to be given to me.

The middle-aged man, seated fourth from the left and dressed in magnificent robes, excitedly replied loudly, "Your subject is here!"

"I will arrange for someone to deliver a letter to the nobles along the route shortly." After speaking to the unusually agitated man, the middle-aged man in black took two booklets from his sleeve and handed them to a servant beside him. He then turned to Tani Re and said, "I don't want any nobles along the route to arrive unaware of the situation, causing misunderstandings!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I guarantee a smooth journey!" He bowed and gave his assurance before receiving the order.

A middle-aged man in fine clothes accepted two booklets from a waiter with trembling hands.

He was in charge of the interactions between Miko Ibaraha Castle and other nobles.

In my past life's terms, that was diplomacy!

But the Miko in the past was merely the lord of a single city.

The mother-in-law has a series of titles such as "Daimyō " and "Daimyō Daimyo Heir".

At that time, he thought he would never have the chance to achieve that noble dream in his lifetime.

But today, after I took over these two booklets...

As long as it is completed perfectly.

Then the noble status I've been longing for is finally about to arrive!

Ignoring his subordinates' feelings, the middle-aged man in black at the head of the table turned to his right and said, " Fujiwara!"

"Your subject is here!" The person on the right stood up and bowed.

He was the head of the military officials.

Having reached this position, he can naturally maintain his composure.

I was very excited when I heard the plan was about to begin.

But he quickly suppressed his excess emotions!

"The army will proceed according to plan at sunrise tomorrow."

"Once you arrive, remember to cooperate with the Ninja to suppress any local dissent."

Upon hearing his task, the burly man in lamellar armor at the head of the right bowed and said crisply, "Yes, Your Highness!"

The most important things have been arranged.

The middle-aged man in black at the head of the group turned to his left and said, " Onodera, Kiyoyasu, Kumoi!"

"Your subject is here," the three people on the left bowed in unison.

Looking at the three men, the middle-aged man in black thought for a moment and then said, "Officials, clerks, civilians, and provisions."

"The three of you will begin preparations after the meeting."

"Especially the provisions, officials, and clerks must set off as soon as possible to keep up with the army's speed."

"You also need to arrange for people to set up supply points along the route that the people are on."

"I don't want any problems to arise among those who are willing to travel with me through mountains and rivers!"

"Once the first group of people has been arranged to depart, we also need to expedite the departure of the second group as soon as possible."

"Remember the promise you just made!"

Upon hearing the head of the household's words, the three bowed in unison and replied, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, we will certainly arrange for personnel to follow."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will arrange for the provisions and supply points to be in place perfectly."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, after the first batch departs, I will ensure that the subsequent numbers meet your satisfaction!"

After speaking, the three of them sat back down in their original kneeling positions.

At the same time, they were all thinking about their own affairs.

The one ranked third, in particular, has an extremely important task.

Organizing and arranging for over 200,000 people, and after that, we'll have to do just that many more!

The immense pressure and the anticipated success of the plan left him with a mix of headaches and joy.

Almost everything has been decided.

A happy smile involuntarily appeared on the face of the middle-aged man in black at the head of the table.

After thinking for a moment, he looked at the chief of staff on the right and said, "The two armies number 230,000 men. When you make your arrangements, don't just think about sending them forward."

"Remember to leave enough supplies to support Kumoi and the others' operations!"

Upon hearing this, the burly man in lamellar armor on the right bowed without saying a word and replied, "Yes!"

After he finished speaking, his gaze involuntarily met that of the third person opposite him.

Then they each looked away!

Actually, they had marked these things in the plan.

Apart from the people who cleared the road and cleaned it.

Along the way, there were corresponding auxiliary troops stationed to assist the civil officials in handling the situation and providing follow-up support.

But His Highness was clearly so happy that he forgot about that.

As a subject, it's best to be sensible and refrain from speaking out in such trivial matters.

Having set the major direction, the group then discussed the details of their respective plans.

About half an hour later, after it was completely dark...

The people in the council then dispersed and went off in different directions to attend to their respective tasks!

My own Miko has the support of the Senju, and is also the son of Daimyō.

They might have some doubts before the plan officially begins.

But since the plan has already begun, it should be able to be completed without any problems.

So all you need to do is do this last part well.

Their noble status was now a foregone conclusion!

This kind of upward social mobility is a major event that benefits future generations.

How could they not be attentive at this moment?

After the meeting, he learned what his subjects were thinking.

Dressed in black, the Miko returned to the palace in the backyard of the Castle Lord's Residence with ease.

As he walked along the wooden walkway toward his wife, he pondered the important matters that would follow the founding of the nation!

There's no need to worry about government affairs or security; there are subordinates and Senju to support you.

However, he now only has one son and one daughter.

Both of them even share the surname Senju!

How should this be passed down in one's own country?

Should the nation be ruled by the Senju?

Or change your surname?

Thinking about the identity her daughter had already been given, and the things her son also had to do.

He shook his head and chose another direction!

Anyway, my wife and I are still young, and changing our surnames is too much trouble.

Wouldn't it be better to have another one?

I'm sure my wife will agree to this request.

But... thinking about all the things I'd have to do if I had another child!

He subconsciously touched his slightly aching lower back.

He loves his wife in every way.

This incident, however, somewhat dampened his confidence.

This is the fundamental reason why there is only one person in his backyard!

If you can't even solve one problem, how can you have the nerve to provoke more?

They noticed the subtle movements ahead and knew where this road led.

As someone who has served their master for decades.

I understand my master's concerns.

The elderly man in a long robe, who had been standing behind the Miko, quickly stepped forward and whispered, "Your Highness, the apothecary has some new stuff coming out."

" I used my connections to ask medical-nin from the Senju, and they confirmed that there are no side effects!"

"How about we give it a try?"

I stopped and listened to the sounds around me.

I've been thinking about this question, which is worth considering carefully.

A small porcelain bottle appeared in the outstretched hand of the Miko dressed in black.

keep going.

He carefully put the items away, deciding to ask his wife later to confirm that everything was alright before trying it out!

Although it's inappropriate and embarrassing to ask this question, and the person behind me has been supporting me for many years.

But even as he was about to become Daimyō, he never lost his vigilance!

early morning.

The darkness was gradually dispelled by the rising sun.

As dawn breaks.

The three people and one dog, clad in armor, continued to traverse the dense forest.

I recalled what was recorded on the map.

As she landed on the next branch, Uka Senju squatted down and leaped upwards in a straight line.

"Splash!"

After a series of rustling sounds of leaves rubbing against an object.

After jumping into the air and getting a clear view of what was ahead Uka was pulled back to the ground by science.

"Bang!"

With a thud, he continued forward, saying, "I'm heading in the right direction, I haven't gone astray."

"We'll be there soon."

Hearing their teammate's words, Aburame Kaun and Inuzuka Furin responded and continued on their way.

The reason they doubted whether they had gone in the wrong direction was...

It's because the forest beneath our feet is too dense.

Based on past experience and calculations of time and distance.

The closer they are to a regular road, the less likely they should be surrounded by large Daiki.

What's especially striking is that the edge of their perception range was still such a dense forest.

This made the three people, who had only been out for a year, start to have doubts.

However, Uka has already examined it in this way.

That means it really is because our experience is insufficient!

Another half hour passed.

The lingering darkness in the sky had been completely dispelled by the rising sun.

whoosh--

whoosh--

whoosh--

whoosh--

Four consecutive whooshing sounds rang out.

The three people and one dog finally emerged from the forest and reached the main road.

As they continued running along the main road, looking at the unusually dense forests on both sides, Aburame Kaun remarked, "It seems we're still a bit naive."

"The forests on both sides of this road are just like those in the center; this is the first time we've ever seen such a sight!"

Hearing his teammate's words, he didn't stop walking.

Uka Senju smiled and asked, "You two, guess why this place is like this?"

She thought not many people were walking on the road, but then she noticed a lot of Aburame Kaun tracks on the road.

Then, a thought struck him, and he guessed, "It must be a terrain issue!"

"Is the road newly built?" Inuzuka Furin, who had arrived, overheard their conversation and joined in.

"Look at those tire tracks and the edges of the road, this should be an old road!" Aburame Kaun immediately pointed to both sides to refute.

"But there's nothing wrong with the terrain here, is there?" Inuzuka Furin said with some doubt after thinking about the information and maps in her mind.

Hearing this, and comparing it with the information she remembered, Aburame Kaun clicked her tongue twice and shook her head, saying, "Then I have no idea what happened!"

"By the way Uka, do you know the reason for your question?"

He has a naturally strong sense of curiosity.

Just as no answer had been found, the person who posed the question spoke.

After he finished speaking, he quickly prepared to listen to the answer!

"Actually, I don't know either!" Knowing her friend's quirk, Uka Senju shook her head, suppressing a laugh.

Upon hearing this answer, three black lines instantly appeared on the forehead of the Aburame Kaun.

From his friend's barely suppressed laughter, he understood what this bastard meant.

This guy knows he'll be curious and will feel bad if he can't find the answers.

So they deliberately bring up this unanswerable question to annoy people!

Those standing nearby also understood Uka's intention.

Inuzuka Furin couldn't help but laugh out loud.

And so, a world where only one person is injured is achieved!

This proves once again that smiles don't disappear; they just move to different places!

They joked around as they hurried on their way.

The conversation between the three and the occasional barking of the Ninja Dog.

It brought a touch of vitality to this temporarily deserted road.

Another hour later.

Around 7:30.

As the three people and one dog hurried on their way, the destination gradually came into view.

Watching the city gradually magnify as it draws closer.

They roused themselves once more, channeling their Chakra and running towards their target.

"Crack!" A whip cracked, followed by a man's scream.

A Young Man in armor, wielding a long whip, pointed at the crowd at the city gate and shouted, "A bunch of incomprehensible idiots!"

"Didn't you understand that I told you to line up in two lines and not block the road?"

"If you keep cutting in line, I'll let you taste the power of my whip!"

Hearing his companion's words, he stood beside the Young Man holding the long whip.

Another man holding a long spear shouted in agreement, "Yes, yes, yes, get in line quickly!"

"Otherwise, the men will let you taste the whip in Uncle Kawatoku's hand."

"Women, you'll get a taste of the whip in my crotch!"

"Hahaha, don't worry, I won't charge you after you try it. Is there any pretty Young Wife willing to come and have a taste?"

The words had barely left his mouth.

The once crowded city gate immediately became orderly.

Men are afraid of the pain of a real whip, while women are afraid of the consequences of a fake whip!

Hearing his companion's unrestrained laughter and suggestive remarks.

The Young Man holding the long whip also laughed.

He suddenly glanced at the pretty girl in the crowd.

I saw a figure rapidly approaching in the distance!

The Young Man holding the long whip immediately stopped smiling and kicked his companion as a warning.

Then he quickly jogged a few steps forward to meet him.

As the figure approached, he forced a fawning smile and said, "Greetings Ninja masters!"

"Please come this way; you can enter the city directly."

As he spoke, he bent over and pointed out the direction.

Upon hearing this, the three people and the dog nodded and followed the indicated path.

After being kicked by his companion, the taxi driver, wielding a long gun, was about to question his partner.

But when he followed his companion's gaze, he immediately understood the man's good intentions.

He quickly ran to the city gate and, together with several of his men, pushed open another door.

As Uka and the others passed by, he greeted them with a fawning and respectful expression, "Welcome, esteemed sirs, to Akifuku Castle!"

"Mmm!" she responded softly through her nose.

Just as she was about to enter, Uka Senju suddenly remembered something and stopped, looking at the respectful person beside her. She asked, "Do you know where the camp is?"

Upon seeing these adults stop, the taxi driver, holding a long gun, stiffened.

He wondered if he had done something wrong to offend these people!

In that instant, he even mentally reviewed his entire life.

You see, ever since these people came to this city...

The tyrannical man who used to rule the city all made way!

Of course, some people objected at first.

But he, who was just a lowly soldier back then, remembered the consequences very clearly!

And without those people's deaths, he wouldn't have reached his current position at such a young age.

But before he could figure out where he went wrong, cold sweat and urine started flowing out!

Having clearly heard the question, he paused for a few seconds before forcing a smile again and said, "M-Sir, most of the lords are in the East and South City."

"But whether that's the camp you're asking about, I, I'm not quite sure."

I got the answer I wanted, although it was somewhat vague.

Having roughly confirmed the location, Uka Senju and her teammates started walking again towards the direction of Dong Cheng.

When I encountered a checkpoint on the way, I was only thinking about getting to my destination as quickly as possible.

All three of them had completely forgotten to ask for the exact location of the camp!

Realizing the mistake they had made, the three exchanged a helpless glance and continued weaving through the crowd.

The three people and the dog disappeared into the automatically parting crowd.

The taxi driver, holding a long gun, finally breathed a long sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead!

Seeing his companion's actions, the taxi driver, wielding a long whip, chuckled and joked as he helped his men close the door, " Kawahiro, those adults are all very reasonable."

"Look how scared you are! Do you think that whip will still be usable if a girl touches it now?"

Hearing the taunting laughter behind him, the taxi driver, brandishing a long gun, snapped, "Get lost!"

"You lucky guy, you don't know anything. If you had been there that night, you'd be in even worse shape than me now."

"Hey, Kawahiro, what exactly happened that night?" Kawatoku, a taxi driver holding a long whip, immediately stepped forward and asked when his companion mentioned that night again.

He hadn't joined the army yet at that time.

It was only after that night that he became eligible to join the army.

Also, his family spent money to teach him a few characters when he was a child.

This is what gave him the opportunity to reach the same position as Kawahiro.

So he was extremely curious about the specifics of what happened that night.

It's a pity it took so long.

Aside from the well-known fact that many people died, it was unexpected.

He was never able to get the cause of the deaths or the manner of their deaths out of his companion who was at the scene!

He gave his companion a disapproving look.

Holding a long spear, Kawahiro walked back to the Lounge without saying a word.

The scene that night!

It was nothing really; it was just that the nobleman, who was the city lord, used his status to make a sarcastic remark to a Ninja.

Then the woman ordered the entire city to be cleared out with knives!

Including the city lord who shouted that his great-uncle's Daimyō was his.

The entire family, numbering several hundred, had their heads severed by long knives.

That night he was a lowly soldier, just an inconspicuous soldier standing in the crowd.

So he survived because he heard the truth but never looked up!

Registration is required at 10:00 AM.

It's only a little past 7:30.

Although we still need to go to the East City and South City to find out where the base is.

But their arrival in the city at this point already indicated that they couldn't possibly be late!

Therefore, after entering the city, Uka Senju and the others unconsciously slowed down their pace and carefully examined this city located on the border of Fire Bear.

This place largely retains the appearance of the Land of Fire.

However, this city is more or less influenced by the customs of the Land of Bears.

As the three walked along, they chatted quietly about the differences between this city and the inland cities and the border towns along the Fire River they had seen before.

Regardless of how many people are ahead or how crowded it is.

The Commoners who get up early in the morning will automatically make way for the three of them when they see their attire.

And so, the three of them continued walking along the Stone Slab road, enjoying the different scenery as they arrived at the East District!

Seeing the crowd part automatically, Kurama Shimei was on guard duty, looked up curiously to see who was coming so early in the morning.

You should know that this is a direction that is usually taken by villagers or people newly sent from the South!

But when he saw who it was, a smile immediately spread across his face, and he jumped up, waving and shouting, " Uka, Furin, Kaun, over here!"

He had last met the three of them three months ago.

He had planned to return to the village to rest after finishing his mission a few days ago.

I was still planning to find Uka and the others in the village, and I was thinking that I should go back and have some fun with them!

Unexpectedly, on the way back to the city, the teacher was suddenly assigned this task by his superiors.

This ruined their plans for a get-together with friends.

With orders in place, they had no choice but to change their plans and follow their teacher to this city.

Upon arriving at the destination, they learned the objectives of the mission.

They thought they wouldn't be able to see their friends again until at least the middle of the year.

But unexpectedly, while on duty today, he saw three of his friends also come to this place?

They were chatting about whether the food at those Land of Bears they'd seen while passing by was good.

Uka Senju and the other two heard a familiar shout!

Following the direction of the sound, I looked at the person wearing a black Combat Uniform, white armor, and classic granny gray hair.

The three of them smiled even more broadly and quickened their pace.

Seeing the group approaching quickly, Kurama Shimei stepped forward and patted the two men on the shoulder, saying, "Why were you two sent here too?"

" Kurama -kun, long time no see!" Inuzuka Furin waved and greeted her with a smile, standing beside Uka.

He punched his friend's white armor.

Looking at the person in front of her Uka Senju smiled and said, "That's the question I should be asking you."

"Your whole team is here?" Using the same gesture as Uka, except that Aburame Kaun hit her shoulder.

Just as he was about to respond to the Furin ' greeting with a smile.

Kurama Shimei was about to say something, but his friends slapped him so hard he swallowed it back down.

He quickly took a step back, covering his chest and shoulders, which were aching from the armor digging into them.

With a look that said, "So you think you can bully the few because you have more people?" he said, "I arrived first, so I should be the one asking you questions!"

"You dare to make a move? Believe me, I'll send out a signal right now to say someone attacked the sentry post!"

He glared at the two men in front of him, threatening them, and then casually placed his hand on his waist where a signal flare was clearly located!

Upon hearing this, Uka Senju and Aburame Kaun, who had just lowered their hands in greeting, simultaneously raised them again.

They both wore malicious smiles as they flanked the sentry who was threatening to call for help.

I gave the corner a good cleaning!

Watching the three boys playfully fighting.

Inuzuka Furin smiled but didn't participate. Instead, she walked aside and took over Kurama Shimei's mission with her Ninja Dog.

A few minutes later.

Amid Kurama Shimei's pleas for mercy, Uka Senju and Aburame Kaun, having vented their long-awaited joy at not seeing each other for so long, finally released their grip and stepped aside.

Looking at his two friends, he stood up and brushed the dust off his clothes.

Kurama Shimei said to the three of them, "We were planning to go back to visit you guys four days ago, but we ended up being transferred here by the Command Center halfway through our trip."

"Did you come directly from the village, or did you come along the way like us?"

Have you received the message about what needs to be done here?

Hearing her friend's question, Uka Senju nodded and recounted the three of them's recent itinerary. "We started from the village, first went to Ihyo Castle to report for duty, and were sent here directly without stopping."

"I already know what the clan is going to do here, but what we'll do depends on the assignments."

"By the way, what stage is this situation at now? Do you have any specific updates after you've been here for a few days?"

Nodding to the three men's gaze, Kurama Shimei leaned forward and whispered, "From what I've observed, it'll be ready soon!"

He's been here for several days, though no one has told him exactly when he'll take action.

However, judging from the personnel deployment and the warehousing of materials...

Having honed his skills for over a year, he still managed to deduce this result.

Having received the answer from her friend, Uka Senju nodded with a knowing look on her face.

It'll be soon, so it seems they should be the last one or two groups.

Otherwise, my friend wouldn't have given the answer that it's about to start!

That's good, because I can get right into the task without having to stand guard like my friend.

Thinking about what's still hanging on my body.

I glanced at my wrist and it was already eight o'clock!

Smileless, Uka Senju looked at her friend across from her and said softly, "You continue your post. We'll find a chance to get together and chat later tonight."

"It's getting late, we need to check in first."

"This mission will take a long time; we should have enough time."

Hearing that his friends hadn't arrived yet, and seeing their movements, he knew it must be soon!

As a fellow Ninja, he understood the importance of the mission.
