The Rise of Naruto Uchiha

Chapter 53: The Capital of the Kingdom of Fire

In the evening, the convoy chose an open place to camp. More than a dozen carriages surrounded the city in a large circle, with both people and horses inside.

After dinner, dozens of people returned to their respective tents. Everyone was very tired after a day of running around and had to rest early. There was still a long way to go tomorrow.

The guard captain, Quanbei, arranged the patrol of the guard team in the evening, and the team members who did not have patrol duties also rested early.

When ninjas go out to perform such escort missions, they usually carry their own tents and the like. It is also very convenient to have a seal scroll to carry these small items.

In the tent of the Konoha ninja team, a small discussion was going on.

"Everyone, please tell me what you think about the bandit attack today?" Teacher Yi Xing spoke first.

"Let me start by saying," Uzumaki Kiku immediately raised his hand. It is a habit developed in school to raise his hand before speaking. "This group of bandits are too weak. They have poor equipment, poor force, poor organization, and poor intelligence. They are simply terrible."

They are useless, and I am curious, how did they survive?"

"The most important thing is that they chose the wrong opponent today," Kaguya Akira said. "When I saw the convoy was rich in supplies, I got dizzy and wanted to intercept it. Convoys of this size usually hire a ninja team to escort them or hire a team of samurai with some strength.

escort."

"There is no problem for such a bandit team to attack a mountain village or something," Ming continued.

"Kenta, what about you? What do you think of today's battle?" Seeing Kenta not taking the initiative to discuss, a group of teachers directly asked by name.

"As far as bandits are concerned, they are too unprofessional." Kenta returned: "Since you are a bandit, it is a desperate job. If you want to live well, you must have the professional skills and intelligence analysis in place."

"The long-range attack archery team has seriously inadequate archer training, poor equipment, and poor archer skills. Even sneak attacks failed to hit a few people. When fighting at close range, the archery team can also provide support on the side. As a result

When they charged, the entire archery team stood aside to watch the fun."

"The melee team has no rules when it comes to charging. They all do their own thing. This kind of ragtag group can really be accurate when dealing with a small caravan with no escort force."

"As the bandit leader, although he is a genin and seems to have some ninja training, he doesn't even have a long-range attack ninjutsu. He is really a scumbag."

"Looking at the escort team," Kenta continued, "they are well-trained, and the average team members basically have the fighting skills of a taijutsu type genin. They also fight in a very organized manner, with well-founded advance and retreat, and there is no problem with the command of the escort captain."

"The shortcomings of the escort team are that they have no long-range attack methods and a single protection method."

"This is also the reason why samurai gradually declined and ninjas became the mainstream." A line of teachers added: "Ninja attack methods are diverse, long-range ninjutsu, close combat taijutsu, ninjutsu, illusions, sealing techniques, medical ninjutsu, etc., have been

It has developed into a system.”

"Okay, that's the end of today's discussion." Teacher Yi Xing said: "Although the escort team has arranged night patrols, our class is also hired to escort this caravan to the capital safely."

"Therefore, we also have to arrange shifts at night. I am on the first shift, Uzumaki is on the second shift, Uchiha Kenta is on the third shift, and Kaguya Akira is on the fourth shift. Each shift is 3 hours long."

There were no bandits on the road after that, and the entire convoy arrived safely at the capital of the Kingdom of Fire.

As soon as they arrived at the gate of the capital, the escort mission was successfully completed. After successfully receiving the employment payment, the group parted ways with fat boss Yamamoto's motorcade.

"Teacher, where will we stay when we get to the capital?" Uzumaki Kiku asked a group of teachers while looking at the bustling capital: "Are we just looking for a hotel to stay in?"

"No, Xiaoju." Teacher Yixing replied: "Our Konoha Ninja Village has a large reception area in the capital. Generally speaking, we Konoha Ninjas stay at our reception area when we go to the capital."

"Our capital of the Country of Fire is very prosperous, right?" A group of teachers led the way and said: "Similarly, there are many tasks here. Among the annual tasks of our Konoha Ninja Village, the capital of the Country of Fire

It takes up a lot of proportion. We in Konoha have resident ninjas in the capital."

"Let's go quickly. It's still early today. We've arranged our place to stay, and we can also take a stroll around our beautiful capital."

"Teacher, hurry up, I can't wait to go shopping." Ju urged.

Soon, the group arrived at the reception area of ​​Konoha's capital of Fire Nation.

A large square yard of almost one square kilometer, mission hall, guest house, cafeteria and even medical ninjas are stationed here. There are resident ninjas here, but most of them are short-term ninjas, and there are still hundreds of them.

Look.

The mission hall is located relatively close to the gate, and there are an endless stream of clients and ninjas who come in and out to request missions and submit missions. It seems that this is really an important stronghold in Konoha.

After settling down in their accommodation, Akimichi and his entourage took Kenta and the others around the capital.

Compared to Konoha Village (a village with hundreds of thousands of permanent residents and an area of ​​dozens of square kilometers is a very large village), the business atmosphere here is stronger, with some large companies, caravans and so on.

There are quite a few residences here.

Occasionally, you can meet someone with a particularly aristocratic look on the street, who will pass by them arrogantly.

Teacher Yixing said that most of the great nobles of the Fire Country are in the capital, and rich people also like to live in the capital.

However, in Kenta's opinion, the capital of the Fire Country is just like this.

Although it looks very prosperous, in such a place where wars are frequent and personal combat power is extremely high, Kenta saw that the city guards here were actually composed of samurai, which looked very unreliable at first glance.

.

I feel that a team of elite ninjas can easily defeat such a city. If the battle between some ninja villages takes place in the capital, there will be no resistance at all. Such as the Chunin Examination battle in the plot.

Kenta really couldn't understand why the ninja villages with absolute power in several major countries did not seize the power of the country. The nobles represented by the wealthy but powerful daimyo actually easily blocked the necks of each ninja village.

Doesn’t it mean that political power comes from the barrel of a gun?

This world is a bit chaotic, and it feels like a hodgepodge. There are feudal lords with great power, and the military forces of various countries are actually mercenary ninjas.

Kenta felt that if he really wanted to conquer the sea of ​​stars, then before that, it was necessary to unify the ninja world and unify the resources and combat power of the ninja world, and a stable rear was extremely important.

After walking around for a while, everyone found it boring except for Uzumaki, who has a talent for shopping. It was important to go back to the reception area early to rest.

A line of teachers said that if they can receive the escort mission back to Konoha Village tomorrow, everyone will return to Konoha tomorrow.
