Ninja World

The sun is scorching brightly.

Although it is already the season of late summer and early autumn, there is still some heat in the air in the Kingdom of Stone.

The border area between the Kingdom of Stone and the Kingdom of Wind is an open plain.

barren land.

There were only a few isolated small trees growing with difficulty, and then there were weeds crawling out from the cracks in the stones.

The north wind blows over the ground and the withered grass breaks.

Moreover, standing here can also see a unique scenery of the Kingdom of Stone.

‘Shi Feiyu’

Countless small stones that can be blown by the wind resemble raindrops.

From the Kingdom of Earth on the plateau, I stumbled and jumped all the way over the mountains of the Kingdom of Stone, and finally ended up on this land.

This is also the reason why Uchiha Tatsuya saw countless stones of various sizes before.

Being stationed here is also the worst job in Sunagakure Ninja Village.

A lonely outpost.

Food supplies also need to be prepared by yourself.

Because this place is far away from Sunagakure Village, there will be no one escorting supplies across the long uninhabited restricted area that Uchiha Tatsu walked through.

So these need to be solved by the ninjas here.

Moreover, he lives with stones all year round and is poor and backward.

There is no money to be made.

Therefore, being sent to garrison here by Sand Hidden Village is almost the same as being exiled.

However, an unexpected guest came today.

"Koga?"

A Sunagakure jounin stationed at the border of the Land of Wind is the leader here.

Wearing a Sunagakure uniform that is similar to the color of yellow sand, there is a touch of red paint on his cheeks, and his white turban hangs down.

There was coldness and impatience in his eyes.

Now he was frowning and looking at the panting man in front of him.

Of course he recognizes Koga.

He is a wandering ninja who has occupied a village near the border of the Kingdom of Stone.

These Sunagakure ninjas stationed at the border often visit the Kingdom of Stone.

After all, life here is monotonous and boring. Behind them is the desert, located on the edge of the Kingdom of Wind, and it is not even as prosperous as the Kingdom of Stone.

They also go there often, so they recognize Koga.

but...

What is he doing today?

They can cross the border in and out of the Kingdom of Stone at will, because the Kingdom of Stone does not have its own defense force at all.

Even allowing these wandering ninjas to run rampant in the country.

But the Kingdom of Wind is different.

The five major countries officially prohibit wandering ninjas from entering.

Because these wandering ninjas do not bring any benefit to the country, they will only be granted special protection if they are invited by the country's dignitaries.

Of course, this prohibition is not that strict.

After all, the country is so big, and there are only a few ninjas patrolling the border and stationed all year round.

It can't be turned around at all.

This is also the reason why Uchiha Tatsumi can cross the border at will.

"What are you doing here?"

Sunagakure Jounin's tone was not very polite, and his voice was cold. For him, a small wandering ninja could be crushed to death with one hand.

It's not just a day or two that the great nation's ninjas are so domineering.

Sitting on the chair at the sentry post, he didn't even move his buttocks.

Koga's throat rolled and his cheeks became stiff.

Then he still smiled.

The control of the Sharingan is just an idea implanted and will not go against the will of the caster.

But it didn't restrict his other thinking.

Koga was still talking and chatting as usual, and there was nothing unusual about him.

But at this time, if you open the Sharingan or the Byakugan of the Hyuga family, you can clearly see the abnormality in Koga's body at this moment.

Concentrate on the position of the eyes.

Two shadows of the three Magatama Sharingan appeared, spinning slowly.

This is the influence that Uchiha Tatsu's eye power exerted on Koga.

Eyes that can see through chakra will naturally be able to see this abnormality, and there is still a possibility of being discovered.

It's difficult to control someone perfectly.

Uchiha Tatsuya was not discouraged.

It's normal to have problems.

Otherwise, the Uchiha family would have unified the ninja world long ago with this ability alone.

Why bother negotiating with the Senju Clan of the Forest?

"What?"

However, Koga's next words made the Sunagakure jounin opposite him suddenly stand up.

There was also an expression of surprise on his face.

He took out a wanted poster for Uchiha Tatsu, then pointed at the portrait of the young man above and asked seriously.

"Is it this person?"

For Uchiha Tatsumi, every Sunagakure ninja wanted to kill him quickly.

Kuang is the name of Sunagakure Jonin.

No surname.

As a Sunagakure jounin who rose up as a commoner, he devoted all his emotions to this village.

He was able to change his own destiny, become a Jonin, and even trample on many family ninjas who once looked down on him, all because of the credit of the village.

If there were no village, Kuang himself might still be like his ancestors during the Warring States Period, becoming a slave of the desert ninja family.

So this is also the reason why Kuang, as a veteran Jounin of Sunagakure, is willing to station at the border of the barren and desolate Kingdom of Stone.

Instead of staying in the desert pearl to enjoy life.

Sand Hidden Village is a pearl above the entire desert.

Prosperous and rich.

Feasting and feasting.

There are all kinds of beauty that are unimaginable to desert people.

It has brought this style that is different from other countries to its fullest extent.

Moreover, in addition to the black storm, Sunagakure Village is also immune to wind and sand attacks.

Countless barriers and a sliver of sky help Sand Hidden Village resist every sandstorm.

Standing peacefully in the desert.

He gave up the beautiful life in Sand Hidden Village and chose to come to this barren land where birds do not poop.

Kuang's idea struck many of his peers as foolish.

But I didn’t expect…

It was his seemingly stupid decision that allowed him to avoid a direct war with Konoha.

A few days ago...

Suddenly he heard shocking news.

A ninja from Konoha's ANBU lurked into the Kingdom of Winds to perform a mission, and a battle broke out with Ye Cang.

Both sides directly reduced Nanji Town to rubble, and thousands of people from the Kingdom of Wind died in the flames.

Then the other party escaped, causing Sunagakure Village to lose its face.

Now, this Konoha ANBU ninja has not been arrested yet, and is being hunted by Sunagakure ANBU.

Then he was sent a portrait of this Konoha ANBU named 'Uchiha Tatsu'.

Ninjas stationed across the border are required to conduct strict inspections.

Although cameras already existed in this era, they were still of the traditional and old style, requiring a cloth to block the light in order to take clear pictures.

So they don't have pictures of Uchiha Tatsumi.

There is only a rough picture.

After learning the news, Kuang was extremely angry. First, he was angry at Uchiha Tatsu's atrocities, and secondly, he was angry at the incompetence of the ANBU.

Then there is Ye Cang.

Kuang was also a member of the Sunagakure Jōnin class, so naturally he had dealings with this talented ninja who developed the Burning Release.

Like everyone else, Kuang didn't like this arrogant and cold woman.

But I didn't expect that she would actually fight against Konoha ninjas in the town regardless of the lives of civilians.

It also caused such heavy casualties.

He just wanted to ask what kind of punishment Ye Cang received, but the answer he got was that Ye Cang was safe and sound.
