Red sand dust

Chapter 527 Awareness

"Suna Ninja?"

Looking at the forehead protector that made people feel complicated, Sarutobi Asuma said nothing, and the three genin could not hide their surprise.

The leader, Sand Ninja, is a female ninja, in her early twenties, with a medium build and medium-long hair, tied back casually.

Like the other Sand Ninja behind him, it does not look like the traditional gray-yellow vest.

Underneath the blue-grey looser soft cotton robe is a close-fitting light-colored battle suit. Judging from its color and texture, it is probably made of tanned fish leather and special velvet.

In the slightly cold sea breeze, every sand ninja was wearing warm gloves and very elegant goggles hung around their necks.

"A member of Sunagakure Village's air combat unit?"

Sarutobi Asuma blew out a smoke ring and asked nonchalantly.

The leading female sand ninja nodded slightly:

"Sarutobi Jonin, was I lucky enough to see you last time in Sunagakure Village?"

"I have an impression that I was working with Ma Ji..."

"Indeed! I forgot to introduce myself. I am Chuunin Rakuman. I now belong to the third detachment of the Sunagakure Air Combat Force, and I am commanded by Commander Daimaru..."

"really……"

The Konoha ninja nodded in understanding.

What is the difference between running on the ground and flying in the sky? In the past, everyone had a dark eye. Since the first batch of students in Konoha Village were trained to control winged armors, some basic concepts have gradually become popular.

Special anti-fog and anti-icing windshields, thermal suits, etc. are all essential for high-altitude flying.

"What are the Sand Ninja doing here? It's far away from the Country of Wind..."

"Actually, it's not bad..."

Leman explained with a reserved smile,

"Flying from Awaji Village on the south coast, it will take at most two days to arrive! As for the purpose of coming here, it is to escort urgently needed supplies to arrive safely..."

"oh!"

The bearded man suddenly realized.

I have long heard that the air combat troops of Sunagakure Village were roaming the South China Sea, annihilating many pirates who were greedy for money, and keeping the dangerous sea routes at least open.

Of course, some valuable islands were also captured by the Sand Ninja as supply points.

In this sea area, only Konoha Village and Sunagakure Village have interests. Konoha Village is also a little confused about the allies' behavior of enclosing land on the sea. They really don't know what there is in these places that is worth taking for their own with great fanfare. some.

Although they are a little confused, it does not prevent the Konoha ninjas from taking several strategically valuable islands and reefs offshore as their own, and establishing sentry towers to station manpower for patrolling.

"Next, the escort mission will be handed over to you, right? That's fine..."

The Country of Tea is not a buffer zone. It is the sphere of influence of Konoha Village by default. The Sand Ninjas have not developed their business in depth. They only hire people to respond to tasks at the port, which is acceptable. After all, they are allies, so there is still room for accommodation. .

The Konoha ninjas were very satisfied with the benefits from the Land of Fire to the Land of Tea. Sea sailing was slow and boring. From time to time, they had to wait for the wind direction to change before they could start the journey. Piracy was rampant and it was difficult to stop them. Let the Suna ninjas take over. It's not impossible to be completely blank.

When it comes to how to fight against the unpredictable and elusive pirates, the more mobile air combat troops are better at it. Even Sarutobi Asuma, who doesn't often come to the south coast, has heard that several groups of giant pirates that have been wreaking havoc for many years have been killed. The sand ninja was wiped out.

If it weren't for this, there wouldn't be so many businessmen coming to try their luck on this golden waterway.

Neither the Sand Ninja nor the Konoha Ninja can do it, and they don't have the motivation to wipe out those sneaky people. However, maintaining the basic rules and order will be beneficial to both parties.

Although it was not stated explicitly, the two villages still tacitly shared the benefits of this trade road full of opportunities.

The intellectual beauty was full of joy, and settled everything in a well-founded manner. She led her five subordinates to say goodbye to the Konoha ninjas, boarded a huge merchant ship, and headed to the west with a lot of goods.

"Teacher Asuma, is the Suna Ninja's aerial combat force so powerful now? It's obviously just a ninja force that has only been established for more than half a year..."

Yamanaka Ino asked in a low voice, thinking that when he was in Sunagakure Village, the apprentices who could only act as performers and honor guards could now travel thousands of kilometers away to complete important tasks.

How long has it been? It feels like there haven't been any major changes this year. Only my friend Sakura Haruno, who went to Sunagakure Village again, feels much calmer. What else...

After looking at his plump teammates who kept munching snacks, the corners of his eyes were drooped, and he seemed to be a lazy young man who was mentally exhausted.

"Are all sand ninjas like this? Every once in a while, my impression becomes a lot different..."

"Are you stimulated? In the middle of last year, I competed with you in the same examination room for the position of chunin, and now you are far behind. Do you feel a bit unbalanced?"

"I always feel that we have worked very hard, but the gap is still getting wider..."

Nara Shikamaru smacked his lips and said with some dissatisfaction,

"I heard that Gaara is already the Fifth Kazekage..."

To be honest, in the Chunin Examination more than a year ago, the gap was already huge, but at least I could make two gestures. Now, let’s not talk about it!

"Ninjas, you can't judge by common sense! It's not surprising that there are masters who are younger than you but more powerful than me..."

The bearded man threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stepped on it a few times, and said with some sadness,

"It's not just Gaara, the 'commander' Daimaru that Leman calls is no worse than me now..."

"Really? How can you grow up so fast?"

Nara Shikamaru opened his eyes wide and couldn't believe it.

"At least the record is better than mine..."

The bearded man scratched the back of his head. He didn't know how to hint that he had actually said something big. To be precise, Daimaru should be a little stronger than him, but in front of the students, he couldn't bear to attack them.

"Tailed beast!" I won’t mention the Kyuubi, but I haven’t fought the others before, so I don’t know if I can win them one on one! 』

The bearded man, who was confident in his own strength, was also a little frightened when dealing with monsters with almost infinite chakra.

"Your talents are also very good. If you work hard, you will not be worse than Suna Ninja!"

"knew!"

Class 10 has experienced a lot of blows and other things in the past year. After all, he is a genius family member who can quickly adjust his mentality.

Earlier, several Konoha ninjas wearing animal masks came to the place where Daimaru and the four-tailed Jinchuuriki Lao Purple were fighting. After carefully exploring for a long time, an ANBU used earth escape and opened up a large area of ​​land. Digging up several pieces of wood that had been scorched by the lava.

After a while, several companions gathered around.

"What is this, Tenzo?"

"Wooden Escape Fragments!"

"you sure?"

“This is my area of ​​expertise, I can’t go wrong!”
