The surrounding environment slowly began to change. The originally dense forest had begun to transform into bushes. In the bushes, snakes, scorpions and other animals could be seen running away due to the actions of the few people.

The queue of the four people also changed as they approached the mission location. Keizaburo was in the front, Yusuke was in the end, and Kakashi and the passerby were in the middle.

Soon they could see a large sand hill with rows of clear houses on it. Keizaburo, who was running in the front, suddenly stopped and waved his hand. Yusuke and the other two gathered beside Keizaburo. Keizaburo took out a map, compared the surrounding environment with the sand hill ahead, and whispered,"Our mission target is ahead. Let's take a rest first, restore our chakras, and then start the action at night.""

"yes!"

"Yusuke, use your perception to check the surroundings and make sure there are no Sand Ninjas lying in ambush nearby."

After hearing Keizaburo's order, Yusuke nodded and used the Senjutsu Chakra stored in his body to immediately enter the Sage Mode. The golden lines in his eyes spread to his brows and turned into a unique rock shape. With the unique perception ability of the Sage Mode open, Yusuke can sense any movement within a ten-mile radius.

The reason why he used the Senjutsu Chakra stored in his body was because his Sage Mode was not perfect enough and he could not absorb the natural energy of the ninja world to enter the Sage Mode.

Keizaburo was attracted by the rock-like lines on Yusuke's face. After a moment of silence, he asked,"Yusuke, are you in Sage Mode?!"

""Hmm!"

Yusuke nodded and continued to sense whether there were any enemies around.

Hearing the answer he wanted, Keizaburo was shocked and said with emotion:"I didn't expect that besides Lord Jiraiya, there are other people who have also learned the Sage Mode. No wonder you have only spent a few months and your strength has increased so much!"

As a member of the Sarutobi clan, he has also heard of the existence of the Sage Mode, especially after Jiraiya successfully mastered the Sage Mode, which further confirmed the unparalleled combat effectiveness of the Sage Mode.

A passerby who was eating a soldier pill asked curiously:"Teacher Keizaburo, what is the Sage Mode?!"

Keizaburo was stunned by the sudden question of the passerby, and said uncertainly:"I don't know this very well. There are few records of the Sage Mode in the ninja world. Even the Sarutobi clan doesn't have many. I only know that if you master the Sage Mode, you can use the energy of nature to fight, and the power is much stronger than ordinary ninjutsu."

"But you can ask Yusuke, he has mastered the Sage Mode now, he must know more than me!"

Hearing this, Passerby and Kakashi turned their attention to Yusuke!

"There are no enemies around!"

Seeing that both of them were looking at him, Yusuke knew that he had to explain to them.

He first explained the situation around him, then he exited the Sage Mode and explained,"As Mr.

Keizaburo said, in addition to chakra, there is a special energy in nature, that is, natural energy.

The so-called Sage Mode is to master the integration of this natural energy into chakra, thereby comprehensively enhancing the power of physical skills, ninjutsu, and illusion.

It is a state that can bring about a qualitative change.

……"

Yusuke simply told a few people his understanding of the Sage Mode, and for ease of understanding, he said it simply and directly.

After explaining, Yusuke took out food from the sealed wristband to prepare to cook and rest, but was held down by Keizaburo's arm, and then heard Keizaburo's slightly angry voice.

""Yusuke, we are close to our destination. For our safety, we can't let you cook food as before!"

Hearing this, Yusuke was stunned for a moment, silently sealed the ingredients in his hand into the wrist guard of his right hand, took out a few food pills and threw them into his mouth to replenish his consumed physical strength.

He knew that Keizaburo was right. Ninjas were not ordinary people. They had a lot of reconnaissance methods to find clues left by the enemy. The simplest and most effective one was the ninja dog. They could smell different smells and track them from several kilometers or even more than ten kilometers away. It was really dangerous to cook rashly.

As night fell, the sky became dim. Yusuke, who had entered the sage mode, led the way in front and groped towards the direction of the sand mountain. On the way, he accurately located the Sand Ninja hidden in the dark.

"Kakashi! At nine o'clock, between several huge rocks 500 meters away, there is a Genin hiding!"

"Teacher Keizaburo, at the two o'clock direction, there are two ninjas lying in the bushes using transformation techniques!"

"……"

With Yusuke's precise positioning, Kakashi and Keizaburo perfectly demonstrated what assassination means. They quietly moved behind these people, twisted their necks, and ended the lives of these sand ninjas.

This stunned the weak passers-by.

Soon the four of them dealt with the nearby sand ninjas and arrived at the village under the sand mountain.

This is the grass fruit village.

Most of the nearby residents make a living by growing grass fruit, so the village got its name from this.

It was already late when the four entered the village, but because most of the houses collapsed, there were still a few people on the street huddled in the corners of the houses, wearing thin and worn clothes, with yellow faces and thin muscles, like ribs.

This situation is almost impossible in the land of fire, which is rich in resources. Even in the border areas, residents cannot even have enough food.

After seeing the dress of Yusuke and the other four, these people were full of fear in their eyes and huddled tighter, obviously not trusting the existence of ninjas.

Keizaburo gnashed his teeth and said,"Damn those Sand Ninjas!"

He was certain that this place had become like this because the Sand Ninjas had taken away all the food and money in the village. If this village was like this, I'm afraid the other villages around it would be like this too.���The same is true for the village.

Yusuke sighed inwardly.

This is the border between the Wind and Fire countries, and it is very far away from Konoha Village.

They don't have satellites that can achieve ultra-long-distance communication, so they can only rely on people or animals.

But even if the ninjas move at full speed, it will take a day or two, not to mention these villagers who have no self-protection ability?!

Moreover, there are obstacles from the Sand Ninjas.

In order to prevent Konoha from discovering their actions, they are afraid that all people and animals that may spread the information will be wiped out before leaving the village.

This is also the reason why Konoha has not discovered it yet.

"Our goal this time is to kill all the Sand Ninjas nearby. We must teach those Sand Ninjas a lesson and let them know that Konoha is not easy to mess with!"

Hearing this, Yusuke complained in his heart:"Just because they won the World War II and didn't ask Sarutobi Hiruzen to pay compensation, it already shows that Konoha is very easy to mess with. As long as you are a little stronger, Sarutobi Hiruzen will choose to tolerate it."
