When they become villains in Konoha, the female ninjas all break down.

"You must learn to listen to your master!"

Fang Yuan's voice carried an undeniable chill.

Kushina stood there dumbfounded, "M-Master?"

"Yes, and my sister seems to like letting me... doesn't she?"

Fang Yuan's voice was seductive, "Be a good girl and remain chaste for me until I return from the front lines."

Kushina looked at the thin, ridiculous paper figure.

Looking at her smiling son.

She felt as if endless darkness enveloped her.

Yet, within this darkness, there was a sliver of pleasure that she lingered over.

And what an absurd scene I witnessed.

It happened in front of his son...

Naruto is the fruit of her and Minato's love.

If that's the case... wouldn't this be in front of Minato?

Thinking about this sent a chill down her spine.

She looked miserable and said, with a wronged expression:

"What am I going to do now?!"

...

Saying goodbye to Kushina, whose contrasting personality was astonishing.

Fang Yuan then arrived at the gathering point of the Konoha ninjas.

It's already getting late.

Many people, including the two Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Minato Namikaze, were already present.

Looking at Fang Yuan, who arrived late.

Everyone felt a strange sense of relief.

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned slightly, feeling quite displeased.

Fang Yuan, the backbone of the Ninja Army, was actually late at this time?

They have no self-awareness whatsoever.

"I'm sorry, Lord Hokage, I'm late."

Fang Yuan shamelessly greeted Minato Namikaze, saying, "It took some time to pack up the ninja tools."

"It's good that you're here." Minato Namikaze shook his head helplessly. "Fang Yuan-kun, perhaps you should settle down and start a family."

"It might be faster if someone at home helps you tidy up."

"Uh……"

Fang Yuan blinked.

His mind was suddenly filled with complaints.

Minato, don't worry, Kushina has already sharpened my sword...

It's almost time to leave.

Without further ado, the group set off immediately.

On the way, Fang Yuan asked Nara Shikaku directly, "Do you have any important tasks assigned to me?"

Although he was the nominal supreme commander.

But Fang Yuan had no interest in following the main group.

This is also why he refused to command the ninja army; too many people would interfere with his personal work.

Nara Shikaku's expression turned serious.

Upon hearing this, he did not hesitate at all.

He took out the scroll directly from his ninja bag and opened the map to ponder.

Or rather, as a smart person.

He was already mentally prepared the moment Fang Yuan refused command.

Facing a combat power like Fang Yuan.

It must be used just right.

If not used, then nothing; but if used, it will be a sure hit.

Nara Shikaku spread the map out on the ground, pointed to a red dot on it, and said:

"This is the place. As long as Lord Fang Yuan can destroy this place, this conflict can basically be put to rest."

The red dot on the map.

It is located on the border between the Land of Lightning and the Land of the Moon.

Looking at the terrain on the map, it seems to be in a valley.

The surrounding environment is very complex.

Nara Shikaku continued, "According to intelligence, this is a secret warehouse of Kumogakure, storing a large number of ninja tools and food."

“Once we destroy this place, the Cloud Village’s offensive within our Land of Fire will be forced to slow down, or even withdraw.”

Fang Yuan glanced at the still very young Nara Shikaku with a strange look in his eyes.

As expected of the sixth brother, he resorts to underhanded tactics from the very first move.

Cut off their food and supplies directly.

He immediately asked, "What about the enemy's defenses?"

Nara Shikaku silently shook his head.

After a long pause, he finally replied, "The intelligence team only located the location, but didn't find out about the guards, so..."

Fang Yuan nodded slightly, thinking about it, and agreed.

As such an important strategic location.

It's also an important storage warehouse, so it wouldn't be surprising if the Hidden Cloud Village sent a hundred ninjas to guard it.

If someone else were to go, even if they were strong, they would be in enemy territory and would have to fight against overwhelming odds.

No matter how you look at it, it's a one-way trip.

But for Fang Yuan...

Perhaps it was precisely because of their extreme trust in Fang Yuan.

Nara Shikaku proposed such a dangerous mission without the slightest hesitation.

Fang Yuan smiled and shook his head, "You really believe me."

"After all, you are Lord Fang Yuan."

Nara Shikaku's face was full of trust.

Fang Yuan thought for a moment and continued, "I will take Uchiha Shisui, Kakashi, and Guy with me."

"Should we bring some more people?"

Yamanaka Inoichi, who was standing nearby, was a little worried.

Keep in mind that the target is behind enemy lines, and there is a constant risk of being surrounded and annihilated.

Fang Yuan said expressionlessly, "No need. More people would only be a burden."

Ah this...

Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Inoichi exchanged a glance.

Suddenly I don't know what to say.

"Keep a close eye on the whereabouts of the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails Jinchuriki. Notify me immediately if you have any information," Fang Yuan added.

Nara Shikaku assumed that Fang Yuan was worried they wouldn't be able to handle the tailed beasts, and readily agreed, "Lord Fang Yuan, how do we inform you?"

Fang Yuan handed a paper doll to Nara Shikaku, saying, "If you encounter a Jinchuriki, you can input chakra into the paper doll, and I will sense it."

"understood."

Nara Shikaku nodded repeatedly.

Fang Yuan then brought along Shisui, Kakashi, and Guy.

They broke away from the main force and sped off into enemy territory.

In the following week.

The group took a detour, avoiding the Cloud Village forces that had invaded the Land of Fire.

They gradually approached the border of the Land of Hot Springs.

During a break.

Several people gathered together.

Fang Yuan then spoke frankly to the group:

"The main force of Iwagakure has already assembled on the border of the Land of Grass."

"If we don't defeat Kumogakure quickly, Iwagakure could intervene at any time."

Despite Fang Yuan's earnestness.

But in his heart, he was complaining about how cautious the old man, Onoki, was.

Such a good opportunity, shouldn't we have a fight?

What's the point of waiting and watching?

After all, the conflicts between the five great ninja villages are never isolated incidents.

After the Cloud Village launched a surprise attack on Konoha.

Upon receiving the message, Iwagakure will inevitably react accordingly.

Perhaps as the news spreads further...

The Sand Village and the Mist Village will also react in their own ways.

Uchiha Shisui asked with a serious expression, "Senior, does that mean our mission is related to the safety of the village?"

Fang Yuan grinned, "If we fail in our mission, the village could be in a very unfavorable situation, and the tragedy of the Third Ninja War could be repeated."

"But if we win, this war will be nipped in the bud."

Matt Kai showed no fear or dejection, and shouted loudly:

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"

Kakashi put away the map and asked Fang Yuan, "What's the plan?"

Fang Yuan actually thought about it for a moment, "I will carry out the final surprise attack. The three of you just need to cover me."

The three exchanged a glance but remained silent.

If it were any one of them, they might have discussed it.

But it was Fang Yuan who said those words.

Then there's no problem.

……

at the same time.

On the battlefield within the Land of Fire.

The war has begun.
