Chapter 102 Waiting for the Rabbit
Team Kumo is divided into ten teams in total. Todoroki is in team 7. The special jonin leading the team is Yamadera Masaharu, who is also a dark-skinned ninja. In Kumogakure Village, almost all ninjas with dark skin thanks to the high altitude account for
There are about half the quantity.
His teammates are three women and four men, with a larger proportion of women. However, since he can become a chuunin before the age of twenty, his strength will not be bad.
It was just possible that no one had spoken to Honglei because of his thorny attitude before, but of course Honglei was happy and leisurely.
If his life in Kumogakure taught him anything, it was that humans can live well alone even without social interaction at all.
Todoroki saw Hokka when leaving Jinchuang Valley. Although her face was still gloomy, Todoroki could still feel her worry. However, now that they were in marching mode, Todoroki could not leave at will. The two waved to each other.
Even if it's goodbye.
Meeting Honoka during this trip to Kawagaya made him feel a lot happier. She was just an ordinary ninja with no extraordinary talents. Being able to survive this cruel war would be better than anything else.
Under the leadership of Troy, the Cloud Mist Team quickly left the territory of the Kingdom of Tang and began to enter the territory of the Kingdom of Fire.
A total of 80 troops traveled through the territory of the Fire Country. The traces left behind were not too obvious. No matter how excellent the anti-detection technology was, they could not clean up so many traces, but Troy seemed not to worry about being attacked at all.
Same, and Konoha's ninjas are really like blind men, just letting them drive straight into the Land of Fire.
But if you think about it carefully, this doesn't seem strange. There are no long-term enemies or friends in the ninja world. Today's friends can turn against each other for the sake of interests, and tomorrow's enemies can naturally turn into enemies for the common goal.
friend.
Konoha is in short supply due to manpower issues. If Kumogakure wants to use the passage to beat Kirigakure at this time, they have no reason to stop him.
And because Kumogakure has all its strongholds set up on ships, it is impossible to carry out a strong attack. Therefore, in order to obtain enough 'forehead protectors', it has become inevitable for them to cooperate with Konoha to a certain extent, otherwise Kumogakure
Yin can only attack the mainland of the Kingdom of Water.
What Kirigakure did last time can only be said to be that Kumogakure himself gave others a chance. But this time, facing the flawless Kirigakure front, Kumogakure could only spend two months grinding it out bit by bit.
.
Under the leadership of Troy, another seven days passed, and the Cloud and Mist Team finally arrived at the destination of their trip, the Mukagawahara stronghold.
And the two-month time limit has officially begun to count.
Mukagawahara is a plain in the Land of Fire, not far from the coastline. There are many towns and villages around it, and there are also many Konoha strongholds dotted around. It is a place where Kirigakure ninjas often appear. Of course, Konoha
There are also many ninjas in Ye.
And what Troy said was that the secret stronghold the village established here was not above the ground, but under the ground.
The Mukagawahara Stronghold is more like an abandoned experimental base than a stronghold. When Troy unlocked the seal on the door, the Wind Release Ninja blew wind inside for half an hour before anyone could enter.
Because it has always been sealed, it is not very dirty here, but judging from the age of the walls, it must be at least twenty years old. Who would believe it if it was said that it was built by Kumogakure.
"Wow, that's amazing!" One of Honglei's male companions immediately exclaimed, "The village has actually established such a large stronghold in the Land of Fire!"
Haha, when they were young and stupid, they believed whatever the village said.
Everyone entered the stronghold, and then Troy sealed the door and asked everyone to gather in a large room.
"I'll make a long story short, now we are in the Land of Fire, and the hunting mission has officially begun! But before that, you should put away all the forehead protectors in the village, and try to avoid Konoha ninjas when you see them, and don't take the initiative to attack.
, we have only one goal, and that is Kirigakure!"
At this time, a female chuunin raised her hand, "Sir Troy, what if the ninjas of Konoha attack us?"
"Are you an idiot? I just said don't take the initiative to attack. If you are beaten, fight back! We have not signed any alliance treaty with Konoha. The only thing that can guarantee your safety is this stronghold. Of course, if you feel that you can
You can also take action to get rid of Konoha's ninjas, but Kirigakure's forehead protector is the most important to me, do you understand?"
"Understood!"
"Very good." Troy nodded, "Then that's it for today. You all go to rest. The special Jonin who leads the team will come with me."
After saying that, Troy turned around and left, while Todoroki's captain Masaharu Yamadera turned around and said, "According to the number, the place where our seventh team will stay is the seventh laboratory. You guys go and rest first."
After everyone responded, he left. Yamadera didn't say much along the way, and he was a relatively cold person.
The unsociable Honglei found the seventh laboratory first, but there was almost nothing here. After taking off the cloud cover on his forehead, he found two shabby tables and put them together, and lay down directly.
Go up.
The special Jonin he encountered in the previous battle was the only Kirigakure he had ever seen. His elusive sword skills caused Todoroki to suffer a lot. It is said that many of the people who invaded the Land of Fire this time were also assassinated by Kirigakure.
As a ninja in the army, he constantly reviewed the scene in his mind to prepare for the next battle.
And just now Troy also said that other places besides here cannot guarantee their safety, which means that the agreement between Kumogakure and Konoha should be very limited. When encountering Kirigakure, they may also
Will be attacked by Konoha.
Not long after, Yamadera, who led the team, came back, but he didn't say much, he just told everyone to have a good rest.
Honglei glanced back. Yamadera was sitting alone and didn't know what he was thinking. The other seven people were all doing their own things. This kind of temporary team didn't need to think about team tacit understanding at all. They just hoped not to fight together again.
What a terrible battle, Honglei thought before falling asleep.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, ten teams left the Mukagawahara underground stronghold one after another and radiated out to the surrounding areas. Honglei's seventh team also left the underground stronghold.
After Yamadera led everyone to run for a while, he hid in a forest. Yamadera didn't explain, and the others naturally didn't ask any questions.
For a whole morning, Yamadera led them back and forth between several locations, setting up many warning circles and various traps, but he did not see even a single ghost.
Everyone finished eating the unpalatable marching rations at noon, and then continued to run around with Yamadera. Even though everyone was puzzled, he still didn't seem to have anything to explain. At least he was not very competent in his duties as a captain.
