Chapter 20: The Old Cow Is Lying On The Nest, Rosa Is Attacking
He decided to wait.
After all, it's understandable for the tired old cow to take a rest, and he could use this time to have a meal. That's right, Chiba hadn't eaten yet.
Taking out the lunch box that Shizuka had prepared, Chiba got ready to dig in.
As he took a bite, his eyes involuntarily glanced at the cow dung on the ground in front of him.
"It's disgusting, but I'm hungry!" he muttered to himself, and his ability activated.
In an instant, the cow dung floated up and transformed into a dung ball, which he swallowed directly.
Chiba swore again that his mouth was just a gateway to a septic tank.
After finishing his meal, Chiba noticed that the old cow was still lying on the ground. He decided to lie down on the cargo and take a nap.
He woke up at noon, and the old cow still hadn't moved.
He felt hungry again in the afternoon, but the old cow remained motionless.
Chiba was completely puzzled.
"You can't expect me to get on the cart and take the cow's place, right?" he wondered, looking around the old cow in confusion.
Finally, he decided to go into the woods, gather some grass, and place it in front of the old cow.
"There's a show!" Chiba's eyes lit up, and he secretly rejoiced.
He watched as the old cow buried its mouth in the grass and began chewing.
After Chiba's careful and considerate care, the old cow finally stood up.
The bullock cart started moving.
Chiba felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
The only thing that puzzled him was why there were so many grasses stuck in the cow's nose. They looked like mint leaves.
...
By a river, a group of Sand Shinobi gathered in silence. After a long time, one of the figures opened one eye.
"Everything is in place," Rosa muttered to himself, loosening the seal in his hand and releasing a technique. Then, his other eye opened.
Standing up, Rosa stretched his stiff neck.
"Let's go!"
With those words, he leaped forward, leading the group of Sand Shinobi, disappearing into the forest.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Swiftly jumping through the forest, Rosa repeated the mission details to his team.
"Remember, we'll start from Supply Depot No. 1, the closest to Konoha, and push all the way to Supply Depot No. 3. Anyone we encounter during this period, kill!"
As he spoke, Rosa's tone was extremely indifferent.
"Yes, Captain!" the team responded in unison, maintaining their speed as they continued jumping through the forest.
Thirty minutes later, there was an explosion near Supply Depot 1, which was under reconstruction.
Boom!
A violent explosion echoed from the forest not far from the supply depot, accompanied by the cries of the ninjas.
"Oh no!" Fujiki exclaimed, quickly pulling out his kunai and urging the construction workers to flee into the dense forest.
He knew that the explosion had occurred where the garrison team was positioned, and the cries sounded somewhat familiar.
"Hurry! Escape into the forest and run towards the village!" Fujiki shouted, looking back anxiously.
Having just been promoted to Chūnin through his father Mitokado Homura's connections, Fujiki lacked combat experience.
It was precisely for this reason that he had been assigned by the captain to oversee the construction workers.
"I hope the captain can hold on..."
Boom!
Just as he thought that, a figure was sent flying out of the forest and crashed heavily in front of Fujiki. It was the team captain, Yamanaka Jiro.
"Team leader!" Fujiki exclaimed in shock, seeing the severely wounded Yamanaka Jiro.
Is this happening too fast?
From the explosion until now, the team had fallen apart in just a few moments.
On the ground, Yamanaka Jiro's face was covered in blood, and his arm was missing.
Rustle...
Suddenly, golden sand surged from the ground and appeared beneath Yamanaka Jiro.
Seeing this, Fujiki hurried forward and extended his arms, attempting to pull the captain out of the sand's reach. Unfortunately, he was too late.
The golden sand spiraled up, enveloping the critically injured Yamanaka Jiro.
"Sand Binding!"
Accompanied by the indifferent voice, Rosa's figure slowly emerged from the forest.
"Helpless..."
With a gentle wave of his hand, Rosa caused the sand to constrict, resulting in a spray of blood that splattered everywhere, even staining Fujiki with its crimson hue.
Fujiki stood there, dumbfounded.
He had never witnessed such a cruel method.
Squeezing someone into a pool of blood with sand while they were still alive?
His entire body trembled, expressing the utmost fear.
"Worthless..."
Observing the terrified Konoha Shinobi, Rosa sneered, preparing to send him on his way.
Moo!
