One Dragon Tail Kick will shatter your Susanoo dream!

Inside the Shimura clan of Konoha, Shimura Danzo was burning with rage, his face contorted with fury.

Danzo's original plan for his unauthorized trip to Kusagakure was to have the Kusagakure ninja keep watch over the Iwa ninja on the border, and then take advantage of Hiruzen's agreement to let him lead the Root members to assist Orochimaru in obtaining intelligence on the Land of Rain's defenses.

In order to gain a lot of military merits, he did not expect that the Root's people had been sent out, and the Third Hokage was afraid that Danzo would gain a lot of military merits, so he recalled Danzo back to the village, ignoring his previous request to obtain command of the Land of Rain.

Let him guard the village and defend against potential enemies. At this time, Konoha has many strong people. It's good enough that they don't invade others, let alone worry about being invaded.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and a Root member wearing a mask handed him a letter.

Danzo looked at what was written on it: "To Kusashimi, please open!"

A sense of lingering fear flashed through my mind.

"Could it be that having Grass Ninja increase the border area of ​​Iwagakure has caused some kind of accident?!"

After reading the letter, Danzo stared blankly, then asked Root, who was standing nearby.

"Is the information inside accurate?"

"Reporting to Lord Danzo, the Grass Village did indeed send out a team of two hundred people that day, along with a large number of ninja tools, and there were indeed sounds of exploding tags coming from the border!"

"Meanwhile, Root members witnessed that less than 10 minutes into the battle, two seriously wounded Grass Ninja were escorted back to the village from the front lines by their team members!"

"The leader of Kusagakure has also disappeared; he is suspected to have gone to the front lines!"

"We received intelligence from the border today that the Iwagakure forces have lost most of their strength, and the new garrison consists mostly of unfamiliar faces who are newly recruited ninjas!"

Danzo stroked his chin and let out a sigh.

"I didn't expect the Land of Grass to be so capable. However, it's quite irrational for a village chief to personally take action for a baseless pretext!"

"However, this has greatly relieved the pressure on the border of the Land of Fire. Hiruzen, I have truly sacrificed too much for Konoha!"

Danzo reluctantly pulled out the scroll from behind him.

"Sending these supplies to the Land of Grass is a small form of compensation..."

After Root left, Danzo clutched his chest in distress. He had earned all these supplies through his own hard work, and he was determined to get the Third Hokage to reimburse him!

At this time, the Land of Rain was devastated, with refugees everywhere and ninjas occasionally darting through the trees!

Cao Zhi disguised himself as a refugee and traveled through several villages, where scenes of burning, killing, and looting were commonplace.

However, most of them were ninjas from the Land of Rain and the Sand Village. The ninjas from Konoha would basically leave once they had completed their killing mission...

After all, the Hokage had given an order that, unless absolutely necessary, no one was allowed to harass the civilians of the Land of Rain...

Looking at the corpses and ruins everywhere, Cao Zhi sighed softly.

"In war, it is always the ordinary people who suffer the most!"

Suddenly, while walking along a riverbank, Cao Zhi, feeling hungry, caught two small fish and started grilling them.

Sprinkle with homemade spices and a layer of oil, and the aroma will fill the air, making even a child's mouth water.

Just as Cao Zhi was about to feast, footsteps came from the entrance of the cave where she was hiding.

A pale, thin little girl with a bloodless complexion appeared at the cave entrance. Looking at her light blue bun, Cao Zhi felt a surge of excitement.

The little girl's eyes gleamed with longing for food, but she didn't rush in. Instead, she spoke weakly from outside the cave.

"Uncle, can I trade you some food?"

Xiao Nan carefully took out a small, hard piece of bread from her bosom; it looked like it could easily choke someone.

"I don't need fish meat, just give me the leftover fish scraps so I can make fish soup!"

"You can have the bread, please!"

Xiao Nan bowed politely, then walked unsteadily to Cao Zhi and handed him the bread.

Cao Zhi looked at the hardened bread, took a small bite, and almost broke her teeth, but she was deeply moved.

He found it hard to imagine how these children survived in such a cruel environment!

Cao Zhi smiled slightly and handed the grilled fish to Xiao Nan.

"Eat up, you little brat!"

Xiao Nan stared in surprise at the delicious and juicy grilled fish in front of her, swallowed hard, but still responded politely.

"It's alright, uncle, I'll just eat the leftovers, it's a trade!"

Cao Zhi forcefully shoved the grilled fish into Xiao Nan's palm, then swallowed the bread with a contorted expression, accompanied by water.

"Cough cough, if I tell you to eat, you eat..."

Xiao Nan looked at the grilled fish in her hand, but ultimately didn't take a bite. Instead, she bowed deeply.

"Thank you for your care, but one of my companions has a fever. Can I take the food with me?"

Cao Zhi got up and brushed the dust off his buttocks.

“Getting sick can be very dangerous, I’ll come with you!”

Xiao Nan's eyes sparkled with joy, and her tone was full of surprise.

"Thank you, uncle. My name is Xiao Nan. What's your name?"

Just call me Brother Zhi.

Xiao Nan carefully examined the disguised grass and then said.

"Understood, Brother Zhi..."

Following Xiao Nan's unsteady, slow steps, after walking for several miles, they arrived at an abandoned village. At the entrance was a pile of corpses wrapped in straw mats.

"You stay here?"

"Brother Zhi, this is where the adults live. They provide shelter, so we need to hand over some supplies!"

Looking at Xiao Nan's excited face, Cao Zhi sighed at how difficult it had been.

Xiao Nan looked distressed and cut open half of the fish, leaving only most of the tail and head.

The rest were put into a relatively intact empty bowl, then a knock was made on the door, and a fierce-looking man came out with his head out.

He ate most of the fish in the bowl, leaving about a quarter, and then threw it back to Xiao Nan.

"I'm full, you kids can divide the rest!"

After saying this, the man got up and walked towards Cao Zhi, with a kitchen knife stuck in his waistband, his words full of threats.

"Here's a piece of advice: no matter who you are, you'd better behave yourself on my turf, or those corpses outside will serve as your example!"

Cao Zhi didn't say anything more to the other party and turned to walk towards Xiao Nan.

Xiao Nan, holding the bowl, led the way while explaining from the side.

"Brother Zhi, don't let Mr. Oki's fierce appearance fool you. If it weren't for him, we kids would have been captured by the ninjas and used as tools to trigger traps long ago!"

"The corpses outside the village are all elderly people who died of illness. Mr. Daiki took good care of us; he even gave us herbs a while ago!"

Kusa nods silently. Apart from the main roads, the other paths in the Land of Rain are covered with trigger-activated poisonous fog. Using children to test the traps, this ninja world is more cruel and real than what he saw on TV in his previous life!
