Capítulo 76: Chapter 76: Surprised (Edited)
The journey through the Fire Country went smoothly.
As they gradually reached the border of the Fire Country, the words of the Horitsu and the others became much less frequent, and most of the time they remained silent.
But it was not complete silence, as they needed to be alert all the time.
During this period of war, there were often disturbances within the Fire Country, not to mention outside the Fire Country.
And at this time, the Rain Country is the most dangerous place, where one can encounter enemy ninjas at any time.
The Rain Country was on the borders of the Fire Country, the Wind Country and the Earth Country.
And since it was on the borders of the three Great Countries, it became the core of the battlefield.
The weather began to change miles before reaching the border of the Rain Country, and the bright blue sky began to fill with dark clouds.
The atmosphere became increasingly heavy and oppressive.
Finally, after entering the Rain Country, it began to rain out of nowhere.
At first, it drizzled, then it became heavier and heavier.
Horitsu was in front, while Naito and the others followed.
Horitsu, as the squad leader, was in charge of missions, exchanging information, etc.
In the Rain Country, Naito and his group quickly obtained information from the Konoha scouts and then set off to carry out the mission that Horitsu had accepted.
On this mission, in fact, there were other Anbu squads acting at the same time, which pertains to a war mission.
"Yujin, you go through the middle, Yoru and I will follow," Asano Senna nodded slightly to Naito before looking back at Yamanaka Oyuki and Horitsu.
Horitsu approved of Senna's words and added, "Well, you all know that we are in the middle of the battlefield, so you should be careful."
Naito was really uncomfortable with this, Everyone was treating him like a burden!
But they only do that because they care about him, so he couldn't help but appreciate it.
With no other choice, Naito could only nod and stood in the middle of the team.
In the back, Asano Senna and Yamanaka Oyuki nodded to each other.
Senna whispered to Oyuki, "Protecting Yujin is one of our tasks."
Oyuki looked at Naito and also whispered, "But with the talent he has, it won't be long before he becomes an elite ninja, he just needs to do several missions, then he will go from a rookie to an elite ninja."
Senna nodded in approval and said, "But for now, we must be more cautious."
After whispering these words, the two began to move, forming a triangle, with Horitsu in the front and the two of them in the back, protecting Naito in the center.
Naito didn't like this, but he had no choice, so he simply shook his head.
No matter.
These people wanted to protect him, so he should be nice.
The group began to move forward and soon entered the Rain Country before the mission began.
There were no surprises in the execution of the mission.
The mission of Naito and the others was to conduct further reconnaissance based on the information relayed by the scouts, and once the opportunity arose, they could attack and assassinate enemy village ninjas.
In short, the mission was about gathering intelligence, following enemy tracks and conducting ambushes.
Before they could realize it, they had spent a month in the Rain Country.
During this month, Naito had few opportunities to attack, and it was almost always the three of them, Horitsu, Sunna and Oyuki, who attacked enemy village ninjas.
Naito could defeat all the Anbu substitute members, but in their opinion, Naito was not ready to participate in the war.
They feared that Naito would hesitate in a real fight and make a mistake.
No matter who he is, he will hesitate the moment he finds himself in a situation where it is necessary to kill someone.
However, during this month, some of Naito's views and insight also made Horitsu and others marvel at Naito's talent.
Still, they did not let Naito participate in those killings that decided life and death in an instant, and at most let Naito clean up the battlefield.
During the first few missions, Naito just had to not be a burden.
...
One month, this is the period they planned to be in the Rain Country, now they would hand over the gathered information to the ninja of Konoha.
Naito and the others had already entered the Rain Country, and after completing another ambush, they were ready to retreat and return.
"We didn't have any casualties this month," Yamanaka Oyuki held her hands in a closed position and then slowly released them.
Horitsu was still holding his sword, which still had a trace of flames gradually dissipating, he nodded and said, "Good job everyone, you all did well, Yujin, you are also very good, you didn't drag the team down at all."
He approached Naito slowly as he said that.
They came across a team of four Iwagakure ninja, and before they could do anything, they had already been killed in seconds by the three of them, Horitsu, Asano and Yamanaka Oyuki.
But this sentence... It really pissed Naito off.
"Well, let's go, the camp shouldn't be too far from here."
Horitsu handed back his sword and started to move.
The others looked at each other, then followed him.
The atmosphere also seemed to have become much more relaxed because the mission was considered to have been completed perfectly.
But after Naito and the others had walked a little further, the rain falling from the sky seemed to suddenly become more intense.
Everyone sensed that something was strange.
The Anbus were all elites, so they immediately reacted, "No good, this is an ambush!"
Horitsu knew the situation they had gotten themselves into was not good, but it was too late to think about why they had been ambushed near their camp.
He tried to retreat with the strength of his feet and, at the same time, he also unsheathed his sword.
But, as he did so, he stepped in water!
A whirlpool began to form under his foot, pulling him straight into the center of the whirlpool.
"Water Jutsu: Water Typhoon Vortex!"
"Shit!"
A shiver ran down Horitsu's back and, in a life or death situation, he slashed with the sword in his hand without hesitation.
Buzz!!!
The flow of fire nature chakra immediately spread throughout the sword, but was instantly suppressed by the water.
"Impossible!", in Horitsu's eyes immediately appeared a hint of horror.
At that moment, Horitsu was very confident in his fire nature chakra flow, even if it was an A-Rank Jutsu, even if water suppresses fire, this kind of situation should not happen!
So, there was only one explanation for this, This was not a Water Jutsu, o.... this Jutsu was created by several ninja at the same time!
.....
Rain was falling from the sky heavily.
What Naito and the others could only see was that a swirl of water appeared on the flat ground, pulling Horitsu straight down and suddenly enveloping him.
Poof!!!! poof!!!! poof!!!!
The next moment, the water in the water vortex turned a deep red color.
"Captain!"
Both Yamanaka Oyuki and Asano Senna instantly revealed a look of horror.
Thud!
In the next instant, the water vortex disappeared and countless bloody holes appeared all over Horitsu's body, who fell helplessly in a pool of blood after a slight struggle.
The rain was still falling, but it could not wash away the bloody ground.
