Chapter 564: Encountering the Seven Ninja Swordsmen on the road!
After many days of continuous traveling, Ye Cheng and Tsunade quickly entered the Kingdom of Fire.
"Yashiro, did Sarutobi-sensei give you any special tasks or orders?"
After driving for several days, Tsunade, who was behind Ye Cheng, finally couldn't help but ask her doubts.
Because it stands to reason that as the jounin in the village, after completing the task assigned by the Hokage, Yashiro should first return to the village to report and then accept new instructions.
Especially for an elite jounin like Yashiro, during the Great Ninja War, the Third Hokage would definitely give Yashiro some special arrangements.
But since the two left the Country of Yu, Tsunade discovered that the direction Yojo was heading in didn't seem to be heading back to Konoha Village at all.
"The order given to me by the Third Hokage was to bring Tsunade-sensei back.
So now I have no mission, and the Third Hokage has not arranged any new missions for me, so I can move around freely. "
Hearing Ye Cheng's words, Tsunade was speechless. You didn't even go back to Konoha Village. How did the Third Hokage know that you had completed the mission, and how could he arrange a new mission for you...
Of course, Tsunade didn't say much about her disciple's willfulness and nonsense, and she was even happy to see it.
With Yojo's strength and ability, if he returns to Konoha Village, he will definitely be entrusted with important tasks by the Third Hokage. Either he will be sent to the front line as an important combat force, or he will be assigned to assassinate some high-level enemy.
There is no doubt that these positions are in danger of near-death. Tsunade herself is afraid of accidents in Yashiro, so she gives up her principles. At this time, she naturally does not want Yashiro to be sent to the dangerous front line again.
She will return to the Land of Fire now, not for Konoha, but simply for her disciple Ye Cheng.
Tsunade didn't want to worry about what would happen to the other Konoha ninjas, as long as Ye Cheng was fine.
Needless to say, the destination of Night City is Kannabi Bridge. After all, this is a battle that will directly affect the future trend.
Minato and Kushina both had a pretty good relationship with him, and if possible, Yoroi would naturally want to avoid the death of the couple.
But when Ye Cheng and Tsunade entered a small forest in the Land of Fire, they unexpectedly encountered several Konoha genin.
There are many genin in Konoha now. Although most of these genin will become "familiar faces" in the eyes of Yashiro in the future, they are still immature at the moment. Except for a few with obvious characteristics, most of them have little impression of Yashiro. None.
However, the Konoha genin team they met this time included a thick-browed boy wearing green tights, and Yashiro recognized him at a glance.
There is no way, the other party's image is too prominent, there are only a few such special individuals in Konoha.
"Kai, what's wrong with you? Have you encountered an enemy?"
Metkai and the others, who were originally in tears and running for their lives in a panic, saw the figure that suddenly appeared in front of them and thought that the enemy had caught up with them, and a look of despair suddenly appeared on their faces.
But when he heard the familiar voice of the other party and the Konoha forehead protector he was wearing, he recognized Metkai who was in Ye City. At this moment, he stepped forward with excitement and grabbed Ye City's arm and said: "Master Ye City, Go and save my father, he stayed behind to protect us!"
Because Konoha is at war on multiple fronts, the current Third Hokage is also worried that Kirigakure Village will suddenly attack. Therefore, several small teams were left to monitor at several important locations on the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Water.
Such surveillance missions are much safer than those that go directly to the battlefield.
And if they are just responsible for surveillance, the combat power requirement does not need to be too high, so the genin team of Metkai, Shiranui Genma and Ebisu is also one of the teams responsible for surveillance this time.
However, the Third Hokage probably did not expect that Kirigakure Village would directly send the famous "Seven Ninja Swordsmen" to take the lead.
So of course, those Konoha ninjas who were responsible for monitoring the Kingdom of Water didn't even have a chance to warn them, and were directly killed by Kirigakure's seven ninja swordsmen.
Metkai and the others were originally going to be attacked and killed by Kirigakure's seven ninja swordsmen like the previous Konoha ninjas, but at the critical moment, Metkai's father, Metday, suddenly arrived.
Matt Dai, who arrived, directly opened the Death Gate of the Eight Gate Dunjia, and took over the mission of the queen, asking Kai and the others to return to Konoha to report important information about the Kirigakure ninja attack.
Hearing the words of the kid in front of him, Ye Cheng also showed an anxious look, and then used a teleportation technique to rush into the woods where Kai and the others had escaped.
"You little brats, you'd better return to Konoha to report the situation as soon as possible, and cherish the life that the ninja named Matt Dai fought for for you.
The Ninja World War is much crueler than you think. Brats like you are very lucky to survive the Ninja World War. "
Looking at the Metkai and the others in front of her, Tsunade's eyes were a little complicated, because when her brother Senju Naoki died, he was probably around the same age as Metkai and the others.
It's just that her brother Naoki didn't have the luck like Kai and others to meet a ninja like Matt Dai.
To be honest, Tsunade now envies and admires the ninja named Matt Dai. Although Tsunade did not know this Konoha ninja before, he at least protected his important things.
"I will not cry! Because my father said that as long as it is to protect important things, burning youth is not meaningless!
One day, I will become an excellent ninja like him. I will continue to become stronger for my companions and burn my youth until the last moment! "
Metkai stubbornly wiped away the tears on his face. In order to prevent Tsunade in front of him from seeing his cowardice, he also used his own faith to prove to the other party that he would inherit his father's youth and keep burning!
Looking at Metkai in front of her, although the other person's clothes were a bit funny, Tsunade didn't mean to make fun of him at all. Instead, she looked at him with emotion and said: "Your father, Metkai , is indeed an excellent Konoha ninja.
And I, Senju Tsunade, also believe that one day you will become as powerful a ninja as your father. "
After leaving such a sentence, Tsunade followed Yashiro without looking back. However, Shiranui Genma and Ebisu who were beside Metkai were shocked on the spot when they heard Tsunade announcing her name. Stayed.
Because of their age, they may have never met Tsunade, or they were still young when they met each other, so they didn't have much impression.
But the name of Tsunade-hime, one of the "Three Ninjas of Konoha", is very popular among them as ninjas of Konoha!
"Kai, that's amazing. You actually got Tsunade-sama's approval!
And Tsunade-sama is the number one medical ninja in the ninja world. I didn't expect that Lord Youchi actually brought her back. With Tsunade-sama If you were here, your father might not be dead."
