Chapter 96 Minato Namikaze's Team
"This was really too dangerous! If it weren't for the power of the Rinnegan, I would have been captured by Konoha, and then you would all be exposed!"
In the dream, Mi Shou recounted his experience from the previous day with lingering fear.
Chisuke nodded: "Yes, thanks to the Rinnegan. Ooka Shin, please thank Nagato for us. He's a really good person."
Ooka Shin was dissatisfied: "Hey, what do you mean by thanking Nagato? This is all thanks to me. Besides, Mikami, you should have been more decisive in committing suicide. You were dragging your feet and almost delayed our plans."
Mikami then shifted the blame to Chisuke.
"I did this to help Sensuke relieve some of the pressure, otherwise I would have committed suicide long ago! Blame Sensuke for being so careless during the mission that Konoha discovered it ahead of time."
Chisuke felt wronged: "I didn't expect the Konoha ninjas to arrive so quickly."
After listening for a while, Kyosuke finally spoke up: "This must have been done by Chiyo and her group. Their goal is to undermine your and Yokura's power. If you die, Chiyo and her group will benefit the most."
Kiichiro nodded with a smile: "That's right. We're not Bao Zheng (a famous judge in Chinese history). We don't need evidence to suspect someone. Whoever benefits the most is the murderer. Let's kill them first and then talk about other things. If we find the real culprit in the future, it's not too late to kill the real culprit then."
Chisuke sneered, "Hmph, don't worry, whether it was Chiyo and the others who harmed me or not, I'm going to deal with them. Once I get my chance, none of them will survive!"
Kyosuke waved his hand: "Stop talking big, think about how to escape first. Come, come, I'll tell you the detailed information about the Land of Fire and help you plan your escape route."
Everyone was busy for a long time before the meeting ended.
Just as Chisuke and Yamori were trying to escape the Land of Fire, Kyosuke entered the Land of Wind.
Looking at the endless desert and feeling the scorching sun, Kyosuke wiped away his sweat, picked up his water bottle, and took two big gulps.
To be honest, he wasn't optimistic about this operation.
In his mind, Minato Namikaze was very strong, and he and Kakashi could help, but Obito and Rin's strength was probably only a hindrance.
I don't know what the third generation was thinking, sending out such a lineup.
Hmm, maybe the Hokage also sent out other teams, but Kyosuke doesn't know that.
Seeing this, Obito began to complain.
"Hey, drink less water, we still have a long way to go in the desert. But, Minato-sensei, why do we have to go through the desert?"
Minato Namikaze took the map, confirmed the location, and began explaining it to Obito.
"The Sand Village's defenses are relatively weak in the desert, making it easier for us to infiltrate. According to intelligence, there is an oasis ahead, which is a Sand Village weapons depot and our first target."
Hearing that they were almost out of the desert, Obito perked up.
"Great! Leave the mission to me! This time, I'll show you what the power of the Uchiha is!"
Kakashi scoffed, "Idiot, we'd be grateful if you just didn't drag us down."
Kyosuke learned from Sensuke that the Sand Ninja were extremely difficult to deal with, and now that he was about to fight them, he felt a little nervous. He ignored Obito and went to Minato Namikaze's side.
"Teacher, what's your plan?"
Minato Namikaze thought for a moment, then glanced at his subordinates. He felt that Rin and Obito were not strong enough, so he said, "I will go and scout the situation first. After we understand the situation, you guys will attract the attention of the Sand Ninja, and I will sneak in to set up the explosive tags and blow up the Sand Ninja's warehouse in one fell swoop."
Before leaving, Minato Namikaze looked at Kyosuke and said, "This is the Land of Wind. We may encounter Sand Ninja at any time. After I leave, you will be the captain."
After Minato Namikaze left, Obito couldn't help but mutter, "What? Why is Kyosuke the captain? I could be one too."
"Once you can beat me, I'll hand over the captaincy to you."
Kyosuke glared at Obito with annoyance and placed one hand on the sand.
The ground quickly began to tremble, the soil churned, and soon a large square pit appeared.
"It's too sunny and exposed outside, let's hide underground."
The group descended underground. The pit was covered by sand, leaving only inconspicuous ventilation openings. However, Kyosuke didn't go down. "We'll take turns keeping watch outside. I'll go first."
Kyosuke lay on the sand, covered with a yellow cloth, which served both as sun protection and camouflage.
"Kyosuke was so serious just now, which is different from his usual self. He seemed very reliable and like a real captain."
In the underground space, Lin recalled Kyosuke's performance just now and couldn't help but sigh.
Seeing Rin praise Kyosuke, Obito was very unconvinced.
"Hmph, he's just putting on an act. He's become arrogant now that he's the captain. We all know he's been stingy, loves to play pranks, and always tries to take advantage of others for years."
Kakashi was sitting in the corner, leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, resting. When he heard Obito's words, he actually opened his eyes and nodded.
“Obito, I didn’t expect you to have such keen observation skills. You’ve summarized Kyosuke’s character so accurately. Now you understand, right? It’s hard enough that I’m managing an idiot, but now an even bigger problem has arisen. I’m in so much pain.”
When Obito heard Kakashi's words, he was initially very happy, thinking that Kakashi was praising him, and even showed a reserved smile.
But after Kakashi finished speaking, Obito felt something was off. After a few seconds of thinking, he realized that Kakashi was calling him an idiot, and he immediately objected.
"Hey, what makes you so great that you dare to insult me! Hmph, Kyosuke was right before. You must be scheming and plotting all the time, that's why you've had a head of white hair since you were a child."
Watching the two argue, Lin laughed, her eyes curving into crescent moons.
"Hehehe, Obito, you remember so clearly what Kyosuke said in the past. It seems you care about him a lot."
When Obito heard Rin's teasing, he became furious and started jumping up and down to defend himself.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I don't remember anything he said! All he said was to belittle others and elevate himself, and he was always challenging people to duels. It was just... just... so unreasonable!"
Don't you remember Kyosuke's words?
Your summary is clearly very comprehensive!
Kakashi looked at Obito, closed his eyes, and said calmly, "Idiot."
"You prematurely gray-haired brat, shut up!"
They argued for a while, and then Kyosuke jumped down.
"Hey, I told you to come here to rest, not to fight. Since you're all so energetic, why don't you go upstairs and soak up some sun!"
"Alright, watch me go out and protect you!"
Obito stood up, wanting to make a good impression, but as he climbed out of the pit, he must have been unlucky; he stepped on a patch of loose sand and fell right down.
With a whoosh, the scattered sand landed on Obito, almost burying him. Obito stood up in a disheveled state, but he remained defiant.
"Cough cough cough, it was just a mistake, I'm fine."
Seeing this, Rin rushed to help Obito. Kakashi shook his head speechlessly and jumped onto the ground to stand guard. Meanwhile, Kyosuke stroked his smooth chin with his right hand and began to make malicious guesses.
Is Obito's bad luck also one of the laws of the world?
After spending so many years together, Kyosuke has come to know Obito very well.
Logically speaking, Obito, without awakening the Sharingan, wasn't particularly strong, but he wasn't weak either; he was considered average among his peers.
However, every time Obito was about to perform well, or at a crucial moment, he would inexplicably fail.
What an interesting guy.
