Naruto: As a genin, I just want to live a normal life.

Page 274

Huang Tufang knew that the civil war had reached its climax, and even though the reconnaissance team discovered that 'White Star' was still there, they did not advance, for fear of getting involved.

Rasa of Sunagakure understood that the civil war in the Land of Rain had reached its climax. Sunagakure absolutely could not join in, otherwise...

What if the ancient Loulan Kingdom also follows the example of the Rain Kingdom and splits into different factions?

......

"Finish."

After about ten minutes, the vast battleground was completed.

Shirahoshi created a sky throne from slimes and sat on it.

With her chin resting on one hand and her head tilted to the side, Shirahoshi said, "Let's begin."

"You have ten minutes to choose your team members."

"Once the decision is made, I will assign the battle characters."

"Alright!" Hanzo believed that the all-powerful god, renowned as the god of the ninja world, would not renege on his promise at a time like this...

Five pieces of paper fell from the sky to the two sides. Shirahoshi said, "You can write with just your fingertips using chakra."

The timer starts at ten minutes.

Two groups of people began selecting candidates and quickly drew up the appropriate personnel.

The new Rain Ninja: Yahiko, Yulong, Nagato, Idaten Kyusuke, and a Jonin named Takufu, a group of four men and one woman.

The Rain Village side consists of: Hanzo, Genshin Ame, Okada En, Kiyu, and Yuling, also a group of four men and one woman.

Tuofeng was a bodyguard hired by the Lord of Fengyu City two years ago for this matter.

As for Sasori, he said he didn't want to reveal his own information, since his combat power would be greatly weakened if he didn't use the Third Kazekage.

If you use it...

Now, the countries involved in World War III may have a target they must target.

But Shirahoshi thought...

This battle is an internal struggle within the Land of Rain. It's already shameful enough that he came out as a shady referee, but he still had to personally take part in it.

That might actually be a bit embarrassing.

"The candidates have been selected."

"Now let's start assigning our opponents."

"first."

Bai Xing rested her chin on her left hand, but raised her right hand instead.

below,

Surprisingly, a huge personal name appeared directly.

【Yu Long vs. Ji Yu】

"I didn't expect to be the first one to go up." Yu Long took a deep breath and used the trees growing from the cliff above to land in the middle of the dueling arena.

Ji Yu on the opposite side was the same.

After landing, the young man Ji Yu, dressed in combat gear, said, "I never imagined that one day we would be fighting each other."

"Fighting is much more comfortable. I've had enough of the days of trading."

Seeing this, Yu Long calmly said:

"Then let me see just how strong you are now, Senior Ji Yu."

"Hehe. To be your senior, I must be better than you!"

Upon seeing this, Bai Xing raised the signal flare:

"The rules are that you cannot come ashore or surrender prematurely."

Of course, death is also a loss, I don't need to elaborate on that.

Furthermore, inability to take action can also be considered a direct failure!

"Then, let's begin!"

boom!

Below—*sss!* *sss!* *sss!* *sss!* *sss!*

The clash of hidden weapons, the collision of swordsmanship between the two sides, and the river in this location allow for various forms of concealment using water-based techniques.

The clash between water clones, the exchange of assassination techniques, ultimately led to Ji Yu's superior skill, securing the first victory.

Yu Long was pierced by a sharp blade and stuck in the floor. Ji Yu was also covered in wounds.

puff.

He pulled out a senbon needle, then a shuriken, and began bandaging himself while saying:

"I won!"

“Miss Yulong…” Yahiko felt a slight pain in his heart for some reason. Perhaps it was because he had been attracted by this woman’s charm these past few days.

"Captain Yulong!!!" xN

Many former Rain Ninja roared in unison.

"What are you yelling for? You're not dead." Bai Xing sat above, immediately activating ROOM mode to wrap around Yu Long's body and prevent her injuries from worsening.

"It's just a punctured heart. What's the big deal?"

Everyone: "???"

No, what do you mean by 'it's just a punctured heart'?! Wouldn't that person be certain to die?!

Chapter 171 Water-type Assassins and Fire-type Assassins

"From today onwards, your name will be Yulong."

"Yes, Uncle Hanzo."

"This child has good talent; we should nurture him further."

"My subordinate understands."

In his youth, Hanzo stood under a house, and an even younger youth, Amegakure, respectfully responded. Then came the young Amegakure, dressed in tattered clothes, standing by the door of the house.

Suddenly, a large hand pressed down on Yulong's head.

"Yulong".

Turning my head, I saw it was Hanzo.

"Uncle Hanzo."

"From today onwards, you will become a ninja and help your uncle. Do you have the confidence?"

"Yu Long has it!"

"very good."

"..."

Memories kept flooding into Yulong's dying consciousness.

Like a final revolving lantern in the grand scheme of life.

"Those were truly happy times. Every day I worked hard, and I felt like I was doing it for Amegakure..."

Click, click!

The mirror of the revolving lantern image shattered, revealing scenes of Amegakure during World War II.

"The great powers are going too far! We must fight! Even if it costs me, their leader, my life, I will stop them from continuing their invasion of our Rain Kingdom!!"

That was Hanzo's pre-war oath-taking ceremony held on the eve of Amegakure's declaration of war.

then.

The screen changed again.

She is a middle-aged mother who found Yulong, a girl from her youth, on the ground in the rain.

Ignoring the water on the ground, he knelt down and grabbed Yulong's sleeve.

Yu Long, holding up her umbrella, asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

If it weren't for the village streets, she probably wouldn't have subdued the other party immediately.

"My child...my child...my child's name is Ayamaru, he went to the battlefield. Ninja sir, do you have any news of him? Please, please tell me!"

"Don't worry, I'll find out where you live." Yu Long squatted down to help the other person up.

The middle-aged woman, with slightly graying hair and a bun hairstyle, wiped away her tears and said, "I...I live in Lane 36 of Huanyu Street. There's a glutinous rice ball shop down there called...Nuanyu Xiaowanzi...I'm on the second floor."

"Okay, I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."

"Thank you, you're such a kind person, thank you, Ninja Master."

"You're welcome. Take this umbrella, don't catch a cold."

"I can't possibly accept this."

"it does not matter."

After a brief tug-of-war, Yulong watched the middle-aged woman leave and headed to the village's ninja archives to inquire about her.

But the result is...

That day, the frequency of rain was the same as before, but for the first time, Yulong understood what it meant to empathize with the pain of others.

Standing at the door on the second floor, I knocked on the door of the middle-aged woman's house.

The middle-aged woman remained the same, opening the door briskly, and upon seeing Yulong's appearance, she displayed a welcoming attitude:

"Ninja, please come in and have a seat."

"No, thank you." As soon as Yu Long received the news, she came over from the Yu Yin Building, getting soaked in the rain.
