The next day, morning.
Konoha gate.
Uchiha Makoto completed his outing registration at the registration office early, then left the village and waited in the forest two hundred meters away from the gate.
About ten minutes later, Kakashi, Uchiha Ryosuke, Uchiha Zonghito, and Uchiha Xinzue all arrived.
"Very good. Since everyone has arrived early, we can also leave early!" Uchiha Makoto nodded:
"I opened the way at the front of the team, with silver behind me, gold in the middle, diamonds second, and black iron behind. We tried to get to the border post as quickly as possible."
"Makoto!"
"Um?"
"No, Captain Yufeng, didn't you agree that you can choose the code name yourself? Kurogane is too ugly." Ryosuke Uchiha, wearing a horse face mask, complained.
Uchiha Makoto smiled and said, "You have already entered the Anbu. Code names are not chosen casually. Does it matter whether they sound good or not?"
Due to his performance in the clan meeting yesterday, he gave Uchiha Crescent the code name Diamond, Uchiha Sohito's code name Gold, and Uchiha Ryosuke's code name Black Iron,
Originally, he wanted to give Ryousuke the code name 'Plastic', but his awareness was too poor!
As for Kakashi's silver, he had taken it himself before.
However, based on Kakashi's initial performance, he didn't care about teamwork at all, and the codename Shirogane really suited him.
Anyway, ANBU codenames are not static and sometimes change according to mission needs.
Kakashi becomes the squad leader of Team 6 and may change his code name later.
Uchiha Ryosuke's code name is a bit of Uchiha Makoto's bad taste.
"Diamonds?" Uchiha's eyes lit up under the crescent moon mask. She didn't react until she heard Uchiha Ryosuke's complaints.
Their codenames are all metal, but she is the most precious diamond. Doesn't that mean she is in Uchiha Makoto's heart...
Uchiha Xinyue's eyes flashed, and the pretty face under the mask turned red.
"Okay! The joke is over! Our mission this time is to transport precious medical supplies, so we must reach the outpost as quickly as possible.
After arriving, you have to cooperate with the stationed ninjas to patrol the border.
The tentative period of the task is ten days, and the time can be reduced or increased depending on the situation.
do you understand? " Uchiha Makoto said seriously.
"Yes!" The four said in unison.
Uchiha Makoto continued: "In addition, I have other tasks, so after arriving at the outpost, I will continue to go north and leave the Land of Fire.
When I'm not around, Kakashi is the captain, and you must obey his orders! do you understand? "
"Yes!" Uchiha Xinyue, Uchiha Zonghito, and Uchiha Ryosuke had already realized this.
What's more, the patriarch personally gave them instructions. Naturally, they didn't dare to neglect matters involving family honor.
Especially since this was an order personally issued by Uchiha Makoto, and the captain was also Kakashi, who became famous at a young age. Although he was younger than them, he was more experienced than them.
...
A group of five people shuttled through the endless forest. This route was already familiar to Uchiha Makoto.
After two days of traveling, they arrived at the outpost near the border at noon, where there was a lookout every few hundred meters.
These lookouts are all wooden structures and are about ten meters high.
Although this is the border, it is located near the rear, so there are no watchtowers dozens of meters high.
Each of the six watchtowers at the front is equipped with a Byakugan ninja from the Hyuga clan and a medical ninja.
This level of defense can only be achieved by Konoha.
One of the goals of Uchiha Makoto and others is to deliver precious medical supplies to the watchtower.
However, when Uchiha Makoto and others passed by an observation tower, screams were heard from above.
Uchiha Makoto raised his eyebrows, "Go up and have a look!"
In fact, without his orders, Kakashi and others had already jumped onto the observation tower.
"retreat!"
"Run!"
I saw 6 ninjas wearing devil masks jumping down from the observation deck and running towards the forest.
Kakashi's eyes flashed with murderous intent and he chased after him.
Uchiha Crescent Moon, Uchiha Zonghito, and Uchiha Ryosuke also followed closely behind.
Uchiha Makoto jumped up to the observation tower and saw three corpses lying on it, all of which were Konoha's chuunin.
"Did he bypass the front line and come to the rear?" Uchiha Makoto looked confused.
Byakugan's reconnaissance ability is extremely strong. If the enemy really takes a long way around, there is no chance of bypassing the watchtowers and hidden posts. However, this will require a large circle, and it can only be a small force.
But looking at the escaping actions of the six people just now, it didn't feel very strong, and under the observation of Uchiha Makoto's Sharingan, the chakra of the escaping people was not strong, and it didn't look like they were hiding their strength.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Makoto also chased in the direction where the six people escaped.
Uchiha Makoto caught up from behind and soon surpassed Uchiha Shingetsu, Uchiha Sohito, and Uchiha Ryosuke.
Since he had a mission and had already reached the border, Kakashi released the four elephant seals in advance.
He used Chidori at this time, and the silver-white arc in his hand crackled.
With the blessing of Thunder Chakra, Kakashi's speed has been greatly improved.
"ah!"
Several screams were heard, and Kakashi killed 5 people one after another.
"Keep one alive!"
Uchiha Makoto shouted.
After Kakashi caught up with the sixth person, he heard Uchiha Makoto's cry and stopped.
The Chidori in his hand suddenly exploded with lightning, and the dense arc suddenly spread out and hit the enemy. The opponent fell to the ground on the spot, twitching all over.
This is the Chidori style that Kakashi learned from Uchiha Makoto, except that he cannot form a seal with one hand to release thunder chakra from all over the body like Uchiha Makoto.
Uchiha Makoto breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Kakashi stop.
It seems that Kakashi's psychological shadow has finally eased a little, and he doesn't kill the enemy on sight like before.
Uchiha Makoto came to the fallen enemy and lifted him up. His eyes were cold and ruthless. The three magatama trembled slightly before he activated the illusion.
"Which force do you belong to? What is the purpose of harassing Konoha?"
"I... am the Prajna of the Land of Forest... We... formed an alliance with Kumo Gakure, harassing Konoha's rear first... Waiting until Kumo Gakure launches an attack on the front line... After defeating Konoha... Yun Gakure Yin will help us restore our country!"
Listening to the other party's intermittent answers, Uchiha Makoto frowned.
"Kumogakure wants to launch an attack on the front line?!" Kakashi and others' expressions suddenly changed.
Doesn't this mean that there will be another war?
Kumogakure suffered the least loss of troops in the three battles. Except for the third generation of Raikage who was tricked to death by Iwagakure, the remaining strength was sufficient.
If Konoha really wants to go to war with Kumogakure, he can win even if he is not afraid, but it will definitely not be easy.
"How many people are left in your forest country? How many jounin are there?" Uchiha Makoto looked calm and then asked.
"After the country was destroyed by Konoha... there are still 25 prajna clan members left, and the only jonins are Kanaya-sama and Rinfu-sama... Kumogakure promised to transfer part of the land of the Fire Country Give it to us..."
Uchiha said sincerely: "Where are the remaining Prajna disciples hiding?"
"In... Niutoushan of Tian Country..."
"Makoto-kun, what should I do? Do you want to send the information back to the village immediately?" Because of this shocking news, Uchiha Xinyue had forgotten to call each other by code names.
"Don't panic!" Uchiha Makoto said solemnly, and easily broke the enemy's neck.
He remembered that it was recorded in the files that the Kingdom of Lin formed an alliance with Iwagakure during the Third War and attempted to attack Konoha. However, because they were too weak, Konoha easily destroyed them.
Now it seems that Yunyin is just using the Prajna Crowd. After all, the strength of the two parties is not on the same level.
The country of Lin is at the bottom of the list in terms of strength among small countries, and their jounin may not be much stronger than the ordinary chuunin of the Uchiha clan.
The alliance between Prajna Buddhism and Kumogakure is simply ridiculous.
However, for the sake of safety, Uchiha said sincerely: "Ryosuke, please report the information directly to Minato-senpai.
The rest of us continued our mission and investigated Kumogakure's movements. "
"Yes!" Uchiha Ryosuke said solemnly, "I'll leave immediately!"
In the original work, Kumogakure did not negotiate peace with Konoha until Konoha 51. Although there were constant small-scale battles with Konoha during this period, no large-scale battle broke out.
Especially now that the fourth generation is still alive, it is unlikely that Kumogakure and Konoha will fight to the death.
The so-called attack is most likely to deceive the Prajna crowd.
Regardless of whether the information was true or false, Uchiha Makoto still wanted to find the pharmacist Nonou.
It just so happened that he was going to Kumogakure and had to pass through the Kingdom of Tian. By the way, he could deal with the Prajna Clan and collect intelligence at the same time.
