Chapter 23: Escort Mission, Heading To The Front Line
After hearing the news that the Third Generation Kazekage was missing, Uchiha Mirai became a little excited.
In the original work, Sasori (the Red Sand Scorpion) chose to defect after turning the Third Generation Kazekage into a human puppet.
But the Sand Hidden Vilge knew nothing about this.
After fending off Kumogakure's attack, Sunagakure decred war on Konoha on the grounds of searching for the Kazekage's whereabouts.
The Third Ninja War began.
If it were before, Uchiha Mirai would definitely have avoided the Third Ninja War.
After all...
On the cruel battlefield, every moment is fraught with danger.
If he is not careful, he may lose his life.
But now, Uchiha Mirai's thoughts regarding the future are completely different.
With his plundering system, he just needs a chaotic environment like the Third Ninja War where he can continue to kill.
As long as he kills enough enemies, his power will grow stronger.
After accumuting enough strength, he can begin to settle the score with the Hokage family.
The Uchiha cn...
In his hands, they would surely become the upstart of the ninja world!
...
Hidden Sand Vilge.
Kazekage Building.
Kazekage Office.
The old dy with short silver hair looked out of the window with her hands behind her back, her eyes gradually becoming resolute.
"Sister, do you really want to unch a war against Konoha?"
Behind Chiyo, an old man with long white eyebrows asked worriedly.
"Ebizō, I have suppressed this hatred in my heart for too long."
"This may be my only chance to avenge my son and daughter-in-w."
Chiyo turned back, her eyes filled with hatred: "Konoha is far less powerful than before. We even defeated Hidden Cloud Vilge, so what do we have left to worry about?"
Hearing Chiyo's words, Ebizō's lips moved: "But... White Fang is dead."
"Snort!"
"Even if he is dead, I still want Konoha to pay the price."
Chiyo said coldly.
After her son and daughter-in-w died, Sasori had become withdrawn and eccentric.
Now he had killed the vilge guards and secretly escaped from the vilge to become a rebel ninja.
All of this was thanks to Konoha.
So... she would make Konoha pay, no matter what!
"But..."
"You don't need to try to persuade me." Seeing what Ebizō wanted to say, Chiyo waved her hand dismissively, "This is also the daimyo's intention."
After defeating the sneak attack from Hidden Cloud Vilge, the daimyo of the Land of Wind set their sights on the more fertile territory of the Land of Fire.
If Konoha can be defeated, the benefits for the Land of Wind will be immeasurable.
Therefore, the daimyo of the Land of Wind fully supported Chiyo's proposal and even allocated a rge amount of military expenditure in advance.
Hearing that Chiyo had mentioned the daimyo, Ebizō stopped speaking and silently exited the room.
After he left, Chiyo took a deep breath.
This time, she would also destroy the families of Konoha's ninjas!
...
Konoha Vilge.
Following Anbu, Uchiha Mirai arrived at the Hokage office.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Minato Namikaze, Uchiha Obito, Rin Nohara, Hatake Kakashi, Kurenai Yuhi, Asuma Sarutobi, and Yūhi Zhenhong gathered nearby.
"Okay, everyone is here."
Seeing Uchiha Mirai standing still, Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff from his cigarette and said in a deep voice: "There have been constant frictions on the border recently, especially with the ninjas from Sunagakure, who are being particurly active."
"The vilge has decided to send a batch of supplies to the front line to support the ninjas there."
"Zhenhong, Minato, you two are in charge of this matter."
"Yes!"
After hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's order, Namikaze Minato and Yuhi Zhenhong both nodded immediately.
After Hiruzen Sarutobi handed over two mission scrolls to them, he turned his attention to Uchiha Mirai: "Mirai, this mission is very dangerous, and you are a ninja of the Uchiha cn. If you don't want to go, I can transfer you back to the police force."
Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, Uchiha Mirai scoffed inwardly.
Old man.
Sure enough, he still doesn't trust him.
"Sir Third Generation, I don't want to join the police force. No matter how dangerous the battlefield is, I will not back down."
Uchiha Mirai said firmly.
What a joke.
He was looking forward to going to the battlefield to quickly improve his strength. If he returned to the Konoha Police Force, he wouldn't be able to improve at all!
"All right, then I'll leave this matter to you."
Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand with a smile: "You go prepare first. We will set off tomorrow."
"Yes!"
After everyone left, an Anbu emerged from the shadows.
"How is it?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the Anbu and asked.
"Master Hokage, according to perception, Uchiha Mirai's spirit and Chakra show no fluctuations. What he just said should be completely sincere."
"I see."
Hearing Anbu's answer, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt greatly relieved.
It seems his judgment was correct; Uchiha Mirai would indeed be a trustworthy ally.
...
The next day.
Vilge Entrance.
"Ohayō~"
Uchiha Mirai greeted everyone who had arrived early with a slow walk.
"Hey, why are you here so te?"
"Everyone has been waiting for you!"
Uchiha Obito looked at Uchiha Mirai and said unhappily.
"Huh?"
"Am I te?"
Uchiha Mirai looked at Uchiha Obito with confusion.
"This..." Uchiha Obito was momentarily speechless.
There were less than two minutes remaining before the scheduled meeting time. Uchiha Mirai was not te; it was just that they had come too early.
"Even if you're not te, you..."
"I'll kill you if you keep nagging me."
Sensing the murderous intent emanating from Uchiha Mirai, Uchiha Obito immediately felt goosebumps all over his body.
A sense of oppression made it hard for him to breathe.
"Mirai, I apologize on behalf of Obito."
Namikaze Minato stepped in, looked at Uchiha Mirai, and smiled.
"You guy... just wanted to kill me!"
Uchiha Obito finally regained his senses, looking at Uchiha Mirai and murmuring.
"I was just joking."
Uchiha Mirai shrugged: "Who would have thought you were so easy to scare?"
"Hateful..."
Uchiha Obito clenched his fists.
Being frightened by Uchiha Mirai's words in front of Rin Nohara made him feel completely embarrassed.
Although he was also a ninja, how could this guy's aura be so intimidating?
Hatake Kakashi was also somewhat taken aback.
Uchiha Mirai's presence just now truly didn't resemble someone who had just graduated from ninja school six months ago.
Yūhi Kurenai and Sarutobi Asuma exchanged familiar gnces.
Especially Sarutobi Asuma.
When he saw Uchiha Obito, he felt an inexplicable sympathy in his heart.
They are both people who have stumbled our way through this turbulent world!
Once upon a time, he had felt so embarrassed like this in front of Uchiha Mirai on countless occasions.
If he hadn't been busy, Sarutobi Asuma would have wanted to pull Uchiha Obito aside to share some of his own experiences.
