Starting from Uchiha Obito

Chapter 19 The Country of Springs

"Uchiha Obito, I've come here to report as ordered." With Obito's current speed, he could arrive two days earlier, but why should he arrive early when he could arrive later? Every extra day gave him more confidence, so he set out on time and arrived on time.

"Uchiha Obito, you're too late. Lord Minato has already led his team on a mission and should be back tomorrow. I just happen to have a mission suitable for you, so go and complete it first." Obito was just a Chunin, and he certainly had no qualifications to report to the command tent on the battlefield. This was a battlefield mission assignment office, and the person in charge was a Chunin whom Obito didn't know, and general missions did not need to be assigned by the commander-in-chief himself.

"Yes."

Obito didn't find anything unusual, and even if he did, he wouldn't care. He was just trying to gain experience, whether it was gaining experience at the Root or at the Netherworld, it was the same to him.

Walking out of the tent, opening the mission scroll, Obito carefully read the mission brief.

In the southern part of the Land of Springs, there is a Kumogakure team in Taoquan Village. We lost one Genin and one Chunin, and two Genin escaped. The enemy's strength is no more than Chunin, and there may be multiple teams. Capture them alive to gather intelligence, or eliminate the Kumogakure ninjas in the area - mission level B, reward two.

Ninjas fighting for the village are not free, after all, ninjas also need to eat. It’s just that the reward for carrying out the mission will be much lower than the normal mission reward. The reward of two taels is usually only enough for C-level missions.

"Hmm~ Is the front line of Lightning Country so difficult now? The enemy has already invaded the southern part of Izumi Country, which means they will soon enter the border of Fire Country. But I don't think this place looks like it has experienced a major war." Obito didn't see too many wounded people along the way. Although most people were not in high spirits, their mental state was still good, and they didn't look like they had experienced a major war at all.

"Forget it, why think about these things? Let's go and take a look. I specially sent Minato Namikaze and Kakashi away, and they should be able to attack me." Obito smiled playfully and put away the scroll. He was not afraid of fighting. Instead, he was very eager for the upcoming battle.

The main camp of the Konoha Lightning Country front was stationed on the border between the Fire Country and the Izumi Country. Obito maintained his strength and hurried on, and it only took him one hour to jump to Inazuma Village. This should have been a peaceful village, but now it is in ruins.

"Didn't it just a Chunin and a Genin who died? This is not something a Chunin would do." Obito looked at the destroyed rice fields filled with corpses and walked into the village with a frown.

This move may seem bold, but he has already prepared to instantly activate the Kamui. In addition to being able to bring equipment over, having the Kamui space also has the advantage that Obito can wear colored contact lenses, so when he activates the Sharingan there will not be such obvious external manifestations.

"No one? It seems there is no ambush here. This is troublesome. There is no living person in sight. We can only follow the traces."

After walking around the village, Obito didn't find a single living person, but found some obscure traces.

Obito didn't think much about it and just followed the traces.

"They are not afraid that I won't see such obscure traces. Although I should be able to spot such traces with the Sharingan, I can also pretend not to see them. Do you think I have too little experience? How about I turn around here and see if they will find me?" After chasing along the traces for a while, Obito stopped. It was not that he was afraid, but he felt that he should not give the enemy the will. How could he go wherever the enemy wanted to start a war? No matter how confident he was, he could not do such a stupid thing.

After thinking for a while, Obito deliberately changed the direction. It was normal for him to lose a Jonin during a Chunin mission.

To his surprise, no one chased him after he walked for a long time, so he simply walked towards the village, hoping that he would fall into the trap, but it was impossible.

It's a pity to waste the experience.

"What's going on? That little brat hasn't caught up with us yet. Didn't we set out this morning?" In a valley about 20 miles away from Daoquan Village, a man from the Yunyin group who was on high alert couldn't help complaining as he looked at the darkening sky.

"Should we send someone to check out the situation?" another person suggested to the leader.

"Not right. According to the intelligence, he should catch up with us. Since he didn't come, it must be that the intelligence is wrong. It's too risky to attack rashly. After all, this place is close to the Konoha camp. Let's retreat." The leader was obviously a cautious person. After thinking for a while, he issued the order to retreat.

Without mentioning what happened after Kumogakure returned, that night Obito, who was still taking a hot spring bath in Inazuma Village, welcomed a Chunin from Konoha.

"Uchiha Obito, why don't you go back and report after completing the mission?" Although he was dressed like a normal Chunin, Obito was sure that he was from the Root from the tone of his voice.

"Who said the mission is completed? It's not completed yet." Obito slowly got up from the hot spring and answered while putting on his clothes.

"Not finished? Then what are you doing?" As a member of the Root, he could not understand what it meant to leisurely soak in a hot spring when he had a mission to complete.

"I'm taking a hot spring bath." Obito just started putting on his coat.

"......" The Root Ninja was speechless for a moment. After a long silence, he spoke: "A ninja should put the mission first. Since the mission has not been completed, you should complete the mission first. You are taking a hot spring bath here. It is wartime now. I can treat your behavior as a deserter."

"Don't put your hat on me. I searched the area near the village during the day and did find some traces, but the enemy was not a weakling either. The subsequent traces were quickly dealt with. What can I do if I can't find anyone? I can't chase them to the Land of Lightning and fight the Hidden Cloud Ninja alone. This is not something I, a Chunin, can do. Putting the mission first doesn't mean I can't eat or sleep. After all, conserving energy is also for the purpose of better completing the mission." After Obito finished dressing, he looked at the Root Ninja and said slowly.

“…” The Root Ninja was speechless again.

"You have failed in this mission. Come back with me and report." The Root Ninja, whose face had turned completely cold, ordered Obito.

"Who said I failed in my mission? My mission is to capture people alive and gather intelligence, or to eliminate the Kumogakure ninjas in the area. Are there any Kumogakure ninjas in this area now? Find them out for me to see." Obito took out the mission scroll and showed it to the other party.

"Come back with me and report." The ninja didn't want to say anything more. He turned around and left after saying this.

"You have to understand, you are a Chunin and I am also a Chunin. You are not the captain assigned to me by my superiors, so it is not your turn to tell me how to carry out the mission and when to report." Obito took back the scroll and said with a cold face.

"It's up to you." After leaving these words, the other party disappeared.

"I thought I could have a fight." Looking at the Root ninja leaving with regret, Obito looked at the hot spring he had just left, but gave up the idea of ​​soaking in it again and turned to walk towards a room on the side.

There is no one in Inaizumi Village, but some places were not so badly damaged. Obito chose a place that was not badly damaged and had hot springs and available rooms. Anyway, there were a lot of supplies stored in his Kamui Space, so living there was much better than living in the camp.

After sending out a shadow clone to keep watch, Obito fell into a peaceful sleep.

Just when Wang Jie was struggling in another world, a team of Cloud Hidden Clan appeared in Daoquan Village. Through the broken wall, they could see Obito sleeping even outside the village.

"Is this kid really a ninja? Is he really our target?" A Kumogakure ninja questioned while looking at the sleeping Obito.

"He should be. Go and prepare first. No matter if he is or not, at least he is a ninja of Konoha. It will not be a mistake to kill him." Looking at the forehead protector on Obito's head, the leader hesitated but still gave the battle order.

There was no coordinated response, and the ninjas dispersed after receiving the order.

"Tsk tsk, there are really a lot of people here. Should we wake up the real body? Forget it, we should just wake him up. It would be a big loss if he dies." The shadow clone was not very sure about the vigilance of the real body. Theoretically, when Wang Jie was asleep, his soul must be struggling in another world and would wake up when stimulated, but Wang Jie himself was not sure about its vigilance.

"Is it dawn?" Obito asked drowsily after being awakened by his shadow clone.

"The people from Yunyin are here. They seem to be preparing something. I'm afraid you'll be ambushed and killed after I leave, so it's safer to wake you up. Now that you're awake, I'll disappear." As he said this, he formed seals with his hands, and the shadow clone disappeared immediately.

"What a nasty shadow clone. Hmm, but also steady enough, which is like me. Get up and work." Looking at the disappearing shadow clone, Obito shook his head to make himself sober, slowly stood up, looked in one direction, and lurked over quietly.

"Can you tell me what you are doing?" Obito quietly lurked behind a person and asked the busy figure.

“What~”

He only had time to utter a word before Obito's sword cut his throat. Now, even without using ninjutsu, Obito's fighting power should not be underestimated, and he could kill a Chunin easily.

“Enemy attack!”

Finally, a sound was made. In this deserted village, any sound was extremely clear. Yunyin, who was nearby, immediately sounded the alarm.

Brush~brush~brush

With a sound of breaking air, Obito was immediately surrounded.

"Ueda! Bastard, kill him."

As the first person rushed up excitedly, all the Cloud Hidden Man began to cooperate in an orderly manner.

Different from the general temporary team of multiple ninjas who lack tacit understanding, the Kumogakure here has obviously practiced siege, and the just right ninjutsu support made Obito faster, but he did not dare to counterattack the people rushing up. The perfect coordination of close combat and long-range attack made him unable to cope with it even with the Mangekyo opened, even though a large part of these people were not Jonin.

After blocking a Senbon sword that he didn't have time to dodge, Wang Jie was immediately faced with ninjutsu attacking from three directions. The melee ninja in front of him was holding a long sword, had superb swordsmanship and a strong body, which restricted his position.

no solution anymore.

When he was about to be hit by the ninjutsu, Obito activated Kamui, and from the visual effect it looked like he was overwhelmed by the ninjutsu.

A huge fireball, a series of lightning strikes, and several wind blades collided together to form an explosion effect, and a sword stretched out from the exploding fireball.
