章節 94: The Real War
Those who most yearn for the battlefield have never experienced it.
Asuma, Tetsuo, and Hamasu were such a group.
Therefore, Shintaro did his best to keep them from going to the battlefield.
However, he still underestimated the passion of boys their age.
Asuma said seriously, "Even so, I will prove my strength on the battlefield!"
Tetsuo, not wanting to be outdone, said, "Don't underestimate the power of the Uchiha Clan. Missions like this investigation are too easy."
Hamasu, rarely expressing his own opinions, said, "Me too."
Shintaro raised his hand to his forehead, knowing that what he had just said was futile.
He felt like a captain acting like the parent of a troublesome child, immediately regretting agreeing to Minato's team reorganization.
That afternoon, he received orders requiring his team to go to the border of the Land of Frost to investigate the movements of the Kumogakure Ninja.
Shintaro easily packed his gear and watched as Asuma and the other two messed around in the camp for a long time, finally coming out fully equipped, with bulging ninja pouches on their backs.
"In a reconnaissance mission, it's important to travel light... Forget it, let's go." He compromised and let them be happy.
Asuma then enthusiastically followed Shintaro, while Tetsuo and Hamasu appeared excited.
As members of the Uchiha Clan, Tetsuo and Hamasu were destined to join the police force. At that time, they could only stay in the village and do safe police duties. Therefore, they cherished the chance to go to the battlefield during the war.
As the second son of the Hokage, Asuma had been well protected since childhood, so it was inevitable he would be overly excited when heading to the battlefield.
Shintaro led the team to the border of the Land of Frost. The trees here began to thin out, and the flat highlands not far ahead were the Land of Frost.
Shintaro sat in a tree, took out his notebook, and began recording information.
This information was nothing more than the number of Kumogakure Ninja crossing the border from here.
Facing the Kumogakure Ninja crossing the border, he could easily kill them, but he adhered to the mission requirements with a mentality of doing more rather than less and remained silent to record intelligence.
Shintaro's character allowed him to suppress his desire to kill the enemy and achieve merit, but the three rookie Chunin next to him were different.
"Shintaro, let's move forward. Rather than recording information, it's better to kill them directly." Asuma approached and said.
Tetsuo and Hamasu also seemed to agree.
"There are two Jonin, four Chunin, and six Genin on the Kumogakure side. We only have one Jonin and three Chunin. How can we manage that?" Shintaro asked.
Asuma was surprised, "Aren't you here?"
Shintaro calmly replied, "What if... I weren't Uchiha Shintaro?"
With his strength, he could easily wipe out the small force in front of him alone.
Asuma also knew this, so he urged him to take action anxiously.
However, Shintaro's words made Asuma pause for a moment.
'Yes… when did I start… relying on Shintaro's strength like this?' Asuma asked himself silently.
Seeing he had gained some insight, Shintaro continued to record the information.
Tetsuo, confused, said, "Aniki, what are you talking about? Aren't you Uchiha Shintaro?"
Shintaro helplessly said, "If you only rely on my strength, you will never grow."
Tetsuo's expression halted, and he also thought hard.
Hamasu said from the side, "Nii-san, I think Aniki is right."
Shintaro nodded happily and continued to record his information.
However, sometimes, if you don't seek trouble, trouble will come to you.
A small group of twelve Kumogakure Ninja noticed the movement of Shintaro and the others and immediately headed in this direction.
It seemed the voices of Asuma and the other two asking Shintaro questions were a bit too loud.
Shintaro sighed and said, "Well then, let me give you the opportunity you've been waiting for."
He, who originally just wanted to complete the mission and return to the camp after finishing work, started his forced business.
Facing an enemy of this level, he showed no interest.
Shintaro jumped from the branch and charged at the small force of Kumogakure Ninja with astonishing speed.
He floated in the air, holding two Kumogakure Jonin with his hands.
"Don't interfere with the newcomers' performance on the battlefield."
The two Kumogakure Ninja quickly drew their swords to resist, but they couldn't slash his body.
Shintaro raised his fingers, using [Blue] to pull the two Kumogakure Jonin and six Genin, leading them to fly to the flat highlands in the Land of Frost.
The remaining four Kumogakure Chunin, staying in place, looked like they had just seen a ghost.
One of the Kumogakure Ninja suddenly remembered something and shouted, "He's the white-haired eye demon!"
"Why does he look like a ghost..." Another Kumogakure Ninja was still frightened by Shintaro's figure earlier.
"Why did he let us go?" Another Kumogakure Ninja found that blind spot.
"Someone's here again!" The last Kumogakure Ninja spotted Asuma and the others.
"[Katon: Haisekishō]"
Asuma launched an attack that gathered ash, and the Kumogakure Ninja instinctively avoided the high-temperature ash, so the extremely powerful move only caused minor injuries to one enemy.
It seemed the remaining Kumogakure Chunin were enough for Asuma and the others.
Asuma drew his Chakra Blade and approached the enemy.
At the same time, Tetsuo and Hamasu stood by Asuma, drawing kunai to attack the other Kumogakure Ninja.
Asuma alone pressured two Kumogakure Chunin, while the other two were handled by Tetsuo and Hamasu.
Asuma's strength surpassed that of ordinary Chunin, but he also showed difficulty in dealing with two Kumogakure Chunin at the same time.
Fortunately, his Wind Element happened to counter the Lightning Element, allowing him to suppress the two Lightning Element Ninjas on the other side with his own strength.
Next to them, Tetsuo and Hamasu were not weak and held their own against the adult Kumogakure Ninja, who were also Chunin.
The battle between the two sides continued.
The two Kumogakure Ninja cooperated to perform Lightning Element Ninjutsu, trying various attacks to break through Asuma's wind-element-covered fists.
However, Asuma did not dodge but charged forward.
"[Chakura-tō: Maichimonji]"
The Chakra Blade in his hand suddenly extended a sharp wind blade, breaking through the lightning chakra defense and slashing the chests of the two Kumogakure Ninja, finally killing them.
However, the residual power of the lightning wave also struck him, causing him to kneel on the ground in paralysis.
The enemy in front of Tetsuo showed a moment of panic-induced weakness, which Tetsuo's single-tomoe Sharingan detected sharply, and a kunai was launched, accurately striking the enemy's throat.
The enemy Hamasu faced was even tougher. He raised his sword, about to slash Hamasu's head.
Seeing this, Tetsuo rushed forward anxiously, trying to prevent the tragedy.
"Hamasu!"
Seeing his younger brother in danger, Tetsuo instantly unlocked his double-tomoe Sharingan.
However, at this moment, the Kumogakure Ninja suddenly turned around and slashed at Tetsuo behind him.
The Kumogakure Ninja appeared fierce, thinking he had succeeded.
Tetsuo's newly opened double-tomoe Sharingan allowed him to react to the limit, but due to his physical limitations, he was a half-step too slow.
PU-CHI
Tetsuo was stabbed in the chest, and blood spattered.
"Nii-san!"
Seeing this, Hamasu also evolved from single-tomoe to double-tomoe, exploding with astonishing speed, and a kunai was thrust into the Kumogakure Ninja's waist.
The Kumogakure Ninja leaned forward in pain, and Tetsuo grabbed the ninja's sword despite his injury, plunging it into the ninja's neck, splattering blood on his face.
At this moment, Shintaro, who had been confronting the enemy and staying on the highlands to watch the show, approached the group.
"So now, you should have a little understanding of what war is, right?"
