บท 291: Chapter 291: Heading to the Kingdom of Demons!
Seeing the two figures, Hatake Sakumo fell silent.
Three chunin, plus himself, an elite jonin.
Ahem... These three chunin didn't seem to be just any ordinary chunin.
One was a genius of the Uchiha clan, who had awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan before the age of eight and joined ANBU.
Another was as formidable as her brother. Despite being only slightly over eight, she had already participated in multiple A-rank missions and had proven capable of defeating jonin on her own.
As for the last one, calling him a genius or a prodigy didn't suffice... he was beyond that—a complete monster!
On the surface, he was a medical ninja.
In fact, he was indeed a medical ninja, but there was something unusual about him.
With three chunin like these, plus himself, even heading to the Kingdom of Demons wouldn't pose too many issues...
"Alright, it's decided then."
"It's been a long time since I went on a mission. I kind of miss it," Hatake Sakumo said with a smile.
[Ding, complete mental treatment...]
At that moment, Reiki heard a notification from the system. He smiled wryly when he realized it.
Initially, he had planned to help Hatake Sakumo recover after convincing him to join the mission. Unexpectedly, just a few words had done the job.
"Uncle Sakumo, let's do some practical training."
"We'll register tomorrow and then head out on the mission," Reiki said with a smile.
"Alright!"
Hatake Sakumo nodded.
Next, Reiki, Uchiha Shisui, and Nozuki engaged in combat training against Hatake Sakumo. After the fight, Hatake Sakumo looked at the three young ones lying on the ground. Feeling the strength in his body, a smile crept onto his face.
The next generation is formidable!
The teamwork of the three, combined with Reiki's sneak attacks and his peculiar puppet techniques... If Sakumo hadn't been fully prepared, he might have succumbed to them.
"Hands up!" Reiki called out, performing a quick self-treatment before sitting up.
"Uncle Sakumo, I'll treat you in a moment. I'll take care of Shisui and Nozuki first."
...
After treating all three, Reiki initially wanted to continue the combat training, but was met with refusal from the others.
Is this guy really a medical ninja? Why is he more relentless than any of them during training!?
Early the next morning, the four gathered at the village entrance.
"This time, as we head to the Kingdom of Demons, follow my instructions at all times."
"Don't act without permission, and remember the information regarding the evil entity..." Hatake Sakumo informed them as they departed and ran through the dense forest, explaining what he knew about the Kingdom of Demons.
"Why can't we just eliminate the evil thing?" Nozuki asked curiously. "Sister Kushina once said that seals can't last forever."
"Kill it? If it were that easy, it wouldn't be considered an evil thing!" Hatake Sakumo explained. "If it breaks the seal, it could become a catastrophe for the entire ninja world. For now, only the priestesses of the Kingdom of Demons can seal it."
"An unkillable evil?" Shisui interjected, "Let's leave it at that. When we reach the Kingdom of Demons, just follow Sakumo-sama's orders."
"Right," Nozuki added. "It's unrealistic to think we could solve what generations haven't. We should focus on the potential dangers along the way."
Reiki smiled at Hatake Sakumo, who was momentarily puzzled.
"Dangers? This isn't a pursuit or escort mission; we might only run into some rogue ninjas or samurai. We can handle it," Sakumo said.
"It's fine, just a heads-up," Reiki replied with a smile.
By nightfall, the four set up camp near a waterhole.
"Everyone, rest up. I'll take the first watch," Reiki said, summoning shadow clones to keep guard before disappearing.
"Uh..." Shisui raised an eyebrow. "Is Reiki always this tireless?" he asked Nozuki.
"You're asking me? Have you ever seen him tired? Let's just rest; we need energy for tomorrow," Nozuki replied. "Oh, by the way, Sakumo-sama, Reiki asked me to give you this." She handed Hatake Sakumo a vial and passed another to Shisui.
"An advanced body-strengthening potion?" Hatake Sakumo's eyes widened. He hadn't expected such treatment from Reiki.
"Sakumo-sama, use it soon. Combined with chakra refining, it brings great benefits, and the effect should last until morning," Nozuki advised, drinking her own potion before settling down to refine chakra.
Shisui, trusting Reiki, followed suit.
Hatake Sakumo, while less accustomed to using such items due to their cost, followed their lead and entered a meditative state.
Meanwhile, Reiki's shadow clone watched over them as he ventured to a cave a short distance away.
"Are you here?" a voice hissed from the grass. A small snake emerged and opened its mouth, from which Orochimaru appeared.
Reiki had always been curious how such a small snake managed to contain Orochimaru.
"Let's go. Take me to them," Reiki said, a smile playing on his lips. He noted, however, that Orochimaru's aura had darkened, signaling trouble within his body.
