Chapter 452: Better To Be Safe Than Sorry
Since Iwagakure conditionally surrendered to Konoha two years ago, Kumogakure has withdrawn from the Land of Fire, but they neither surrendered nor negotiated peace with Konoha, and instead stationed troops on the border of the Land of Lightning. Separated from the Land of the Moon and Land of Hot Water, they faced the Konohas border Shinobi far away.
During the period, the Shinobi of the two Great Shinobi Villages came and went, constantly rubbing against each other. On average, they hurt each other once every seven days. Although the battle was not fierce, there were constant casualties!
As the Kage of Konoha, Minato naturally does not want to see this situation. He once ordered the border Shinobi to restrain themselves, but the opposite Kumogakures Shinobi did not have this kind of consciousness at all!
After Minato learned the lesson, he immediately revoked the restraints and asked the border to do what needs to be done. At the same time, he sent an envoy to contact Yondaime Raikage, hoping to stop the confrontation between the two countries from the top to bottom, however, Yondaime Raikage said that all matters of the border are left in the leader of Kumogakures Shinobis hands!
Minato realized that there was something tricky in the middle at the time, so he sent Anbu to collect the information of the Kumogakures Shinobis leader, and found that his status in Kumogakure was very high, especially after the death of Sandaime Raikage. During the period before Fourth Raikage took over, he directly controlled all the power of Kumogakure!!
It was until Yondaime Raikage succeeded that the power of Kumogakure slowly returned to Yondaime Raikage, but Kumogakures Shinobis leader still held considerable power and was unwilling to hand it over to Yondaime Raikage. Among them was the border with thousands of Kumogakures Shinobi!
It is obvious that the relationship between Yondaime Raikage and the Kumogakures Shinobis leader is at odds, and even extremely tense. After confirming this, Minato dispatched the Anbus sixth team. The content of their mission is to assassinate the Kumogakures Shinobis leader!
Although killing the Kumogakures Shinobis leader will allow Yondaime Raikage to control all the powers of Kumogakure, and may even let him use this as an excuse to declare of war to Konoha. Compared to being cut by the soft knife of Kumogakures Shinobis leader, Minato would rather fight Yondaime Raikage in upright manner!
Furthermore, after the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, Konoha has spent the past two years recovering its strength. By developing the economy and nurturing the Shinobi, the villages strength has recovered quickly!
And in the current situation of the Shinobi World where Sunagakure is weak and Kirigakure has closed their country, Konoha is not afraid of any war!
The Land of Fire and the Land of Hot Waters border.
After the Anbus sixth team arrived, they immediately contacted the border Shinobi stationed here and exchanged the latest information.
The next day, the sixth team crossed the border and rushed into the Land of Hot Water.
Along the way, Kakashi still deliberately provokes Kanp all day long, trying to copy all the Ninjutsu he has in his hands!
Knowing Kakashis evil intent, Kanp introspects himself three times a day, constantly improving his moral self-cultivation, and even realized a truth, If Kakashi slander me, deceive me, insult me, laugh at me, despise me, hate me, lie to me, I should just bear him, let him, avoid him, bear him, respect him, ignore him unless I cant hold it!
And the price I paid for not being to hold it is that Ninjutsu would be copied away.
But then, Kanp found a way to fool Kakashi, that is, to use only the Ninjutsu that he has copied in the battle against him. In this way, Kanp wont feel the pain of being copied by this bastard anymore.
After Kakashi see through Kanps sinister intentions, Kakashi became even more mean-spirited, and he constantly provokes Kanp in battle, trying to force him to use new Ninjutsu.
But when they cross the Land of Hot Water and enter the border of the Land of the Moon, since the entire group is very close to the border of the Land of Lightning, and may encounter Kumogakures Shinobi at any time, Kakashi finally restrained himself and stopped provoking Kanp.
And Kanp, also began to bury rocks along the way!
Kakashi saw the Flying Thunder God Techniques imprint on the stones, and almost couldnt help but provoked at the time, Before entering the Land of Lightning, he already started to lay out an escape route. How afraid of death are you?
Fortunately, he knew that this is not the time for provocation, so he resisted it, but he wrote the matter in his notebook, and when the mission was over, he would use this to provoke him fiercely!
When there was still a days journey away from the Land of Lightnings border, Jizo decided to divide the sixth team into five groups of four people. He himself set an example, and took the initiative to bring the youngest three people in his group. Under the weird gazes of the rest of his men, Jizo showed a resolute expression of I am wronged by bringing these three little kids but I dont say it because I am the captain and I am duty-bound, which deeply touched everyone present!
Jizo and the group leaders of the other four groups gave some instructions, waved their hands, and said: Okay, now disperse, and pay attention to safety!
Yes!
After everyone dispersed, Jizo took Kanp, Shisui and Kakashi, and traveled all the way in low profile manner. With his excellent Sensor Ninjutsu, he avoided the patrolling Kumogakures Shinobi several times, and they finally entered the Land of Lightnings border smoothly.
Kumogakure stationed thousands of Shinobi on the border, and the patrol density was very high. So after entering the border, the group of four still walked on thin ice, cautious and solemn, and Jizo keeps using Sensor Ninjutsu to ensure the safety of the road ahead.
Wandering all the way, as the four people went deep into Land of Lightning and left the border behind, they slowly relaxed and began to discuss mission.
Captain, is the Kumogakures Shinobis leader we are going to assassinate in Kumogakure or on the border? Shisui asked.
Jizo answered: The other party is Kumogakures higher-up, so he naturally stays in the village.
Kakashi then asked: Hey, do you want us to enter Kumogakure assassinated Kumogakures higher-up?
Jizo smiled and shook his head: According to intelligence, the thousand Kumogakures Shinobi on the border are all loyal subordinates of this Kumogakures Shinobis leader, so we only have to make a big commotion on the border. At that time, this Kumogakures Shinobis leader cant help but rush over from Kumogakure!
Hearing this, Shisuis eyes lit up: At that time, we will set an ambush on the way, and we will be able to assassinate him easily!
Jizo nodded with a smile.
Kakashi continued: There are thousands of Kumogakures Shinobi on the border. Its too irrational to attack the border!
As an excellent Shinobi who once served on the border of the Land of Fire, Kanp snorted and said: The border is so long, and a thousand Kumogakures Shinobi have to be scattered to protect it, so theres no way we would really face up a thousand Kumogakures Shinobi.
Jizo looked at Kanp with satisfaction, As expected of the child that contributed his youth to the Land of Fires border!
Husky is right. We only need to attack a certain section of the border and make a big commotion. I believe we can lead our target out of Kumogakure with that! Jizo said firmly.
Kakashi refused to accept it, and continued to argue: What if the Yondaime Raikage and Hachibis Jinchuriki are also brought out?
That kind of thing will never happen!
Jizo smiled, According to our information, Yondaime Raikage and this Kumogakures Shinobis leader are at odds. So it is impossible for him to stand up for the subordinates of the Kumogakures Shinobis leader!
When he heard this, Kanp suddenly felt an ominous feeling in his heart.
He turned his head and looked towards Jizo, looking so seriously and so deeply.
In case this guy inherited Shikuro-senseis physique Then it wont be a problem to attract Yondaime Raikage and Killer B here.
Feeling Kanps weird gaze, Jizo touched the mask on his face strangely, and asked: Husky, what are you looking at?
Captain!
Kanp took a deep breath, and said, I think what Kakashi said makes sense. Its better to be safe than sorry. What should we do if our actions really attract Yondaime Raikage and Hachibis Jinchuriki?
Jizo was startled when he heard this.
Kakashi, whose face is under the mask of the red fox, is looking Kanp even more suspiciously: This guy does he take the wrong medicine today?
