Chapter 20: *Chapter 20: Arrival in the Land of Snow*
The journey to the Land of Snow was arduous. The terrain was icy and treacherous, and the cold wind bit through their clothing. Despite the harsh conditions, the brothers pressed on, determined to uncover the Akatsuki's plans.
Upon arrival, they were met by an old acquaintance—Yukimaru, a resident of the Land of Snow who had once been an ally of the Snow Village's former ruler. He greeted them with a mixture of relief and apprehension.
"Thank you for coming," Yukimaru said, his voice tense. "The situation here is dire. There have been reports of Akatsuki members searching for something deep in the mountains. They're well-armed and highly dangerous."
Jiraiya nodded. "We'll need to be cautious. The Land of Snow is vast, and finding them could take time."
Yukimaru led them to a hidden base in the mountains, where they began their search. The snow-covered peaks provided natural cover, making it difficult to track the Akatsuki's movements.
As they combed through the area, they encountered various traps and obstacles, all clearly set by the Akatsuki to deter intruders. The brothers used their skills and teamwork to navigate through the dangers, their senses heightened by the constant threat.
