Chapter 124 Departure to the Snow Country

The morning sun shines on the sea, and the sparkling sea surface is like a broken mirror, reflecting the sunlight onto the ships sailing through the waves.

Dousuke Okamoto watched the seagulls swooping down to hunt.

The whole person is in a feeling of excitement.

This excitement diluted the depression I felt when I said goodbye to Tsunade and Shizune in the morning.

In the morning, when Okamoto Dousuke was leaving the village, when he walked to the stone bench at the entrance of the village, he saw Tsunade sitting on the stone bench with her back leaning against the chair, squinting her eyes and looking drowsy, and Shizune who was constantly looking towards the village.

Shizune suddenly saw Okamoto Dousuke walking towards the gate of Konoha with his head lowered.

Shizune jumped up and down excitedly, eyes wide and waving her hands vigorously.

"Tsunade-sensei, Tsunade-sensei, Dousuke is here!!"

Tsunade, who was woken up, looked at Shizune with an unhappy expression.

I was pulled out of my warm bed by Shizune early in the morning just to see Okamoto Dousuke off.

Thinking of this, Tsunade wanted to slap herself twice. It was her fault for mentioning during dinner yesterday that Okamoto Dousuke would be going out on a mission tomorrow.

The result was that Shizune pulled me over early in the morning to see Okamoto Dousuke off.

Seeing Shizune and Tsunade, Okamoto Dousuke quickly ran up to them. "Shizune, teacher, why are you here!"

"Hehe, it was this little girl who insisted on seeing you off! She was afraid that you would leave early, so she woke me up before dawn and prepared snacks..."

"Teacher..." Tsunade was interrupted by Shizune with a blushing face before she could finish.

Shizune walked up to Okamoto Dousuke and took out a food box with a bow tied on it from behind.

"Dosuke, here are some snacks I prepared for you to eat on the way!" Okamoto Dosuke looked at Shizune, whose face was flushed, and reached out to take the lunch box.

"Thank you, Shizune. And I'm sorry to bother you and the teacher to see me off so early." Okamoto Dousuke said apologetically.

He originally wanted to leave quietly because Tsunade knew his mission this time. As for Shizune, Okamoto Dousuke didn't want her to be involved with him in his current state.

It was fine when he was in the hospital, but now he is outside, especially since he is still under punishment.

Farewell to Shizune and Tsunade.

After leaving the village, Okamoto Dousuke saw a man wearing an apron with the word "fire" on it.

"Hey, are you the ninja from the Hidden Leaf Village this time?" The female ninja wearing a triangular fire apron was looking at him with a scrutinizing expression.

Okamoto Tomsuke nodded.

"Follow me!" The ninja nodded after checking the letter proof from Okamoto Dousuke.

Under her leadership, Okamoto Dousuke and the ninja followed a path on the map and went straight to the dock of the Land of Fire.

For the first time in two lives, I really sailed on the sea.Feeling the boundless sea, Okamoto Dosuke felt his heart widened.

Standing on the deck, leaning on the side of the boat.Looking at the dazzling sea.

"The sea is truly great!" Okamoto Dousuke felt that the water film flowing around him was speeding up.

"Yes, the sea gives people the most selfless things." A handsome young man in a beige silk gown appeared next to Okamoto Dousuke.

"Do you think so too?" Okamoto Dousuke looked at the other person, who was dressed elegantly with a sachet on his waist. His whole body exuded a faint fragrance, rich but not pungent.

Okamoto Dousuke's intuition told him that the man in front of him was not an ordinary person.

"Of course, only the sea can give to people without caring about every gain or loss." The handsome man spoke eloquently, with a broad mind.

"Well said, only when one's mind is as broad as the sea can one be broad-minded and accommodate all rivers." Okamoto Dousuke couldn't help but say.

"What a spirit! The sea embraces all rivers and is great because of its tolerance. My little brother, may I ask your name?" The handsome young man looked at Okamoto Dousuke and asked curiously.

Okamoto Dosuke was about to speak.

"Don't be rude!!" The female ninja who brought Okamoto Dousuke to the dock in the morning shouted loudly when she saw Okamoto Dousuke talking to the handsome young man.

He formed seals with his hands and instantly appeared beside the young man.

"Do you know who is in front of you? This is the second prince of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. You are just a mere Genin, why don't you step back immediately!" Before Okamoto Dousuke could explain, the female ninja shouted harshly.

Okamoto Dousuke, who was leaning against the side of the boat and looking at the sea, was completely stunned.

He looked at the handsome boy, then at the female ninja who appeared in front of him. He didn't know what to say.

"The freezing rain has receded." The handsome young man said, although his voice was soft, but it was extraordinarily majestic.

"I, I...but..." The female ninja named Dongyu wanted to explain, but under the gaze of the Second Prince, she finally shut up and walked aside.

"I'm sorry, they didn't mean to offend you, please forgive me." The handsome young man nodded slightly to Okamoto Dousuke to express his apology.

"It's okay, it's my duty!" Okamoto Dousuke waved his hands repeatedly to indicate that it was okay.

In fact, she should have thought of it long ago. Before coming on the road, the female ninja named Frozen Rain briefly introduced the diplomatic delegation to the Snow Country to Okamoto Dousuke.

The team was led by the second prince of the Fire Country, Shinkagami Kazuki, to the Snow Country.

Okamoto Dousuke blends in as an ordinary envoy and will stay behind when the delegation leaves the Snow Country.

While on the road, the ninja named Frost Rain found out through questioning that Okamoto Dousuke was still a Genin and had just graduated from the Ninja School a few years ago. A look of contempt appeared on his face.

She really didn't understand why the Fire Nation would entrust the task of protecting the Second Prince to such a mere Genin.

As an orphan and a guardian ninja trained by the Fire Nation, Dongyu was educated from a young age to protect the lineage of the Fire Nation Daimyo to the death, and he was proud of it.

She has been working hard to become the Fire Ninja's guardian ninja since the day she was old enough to understand. She was so proud when she became the youngest reserve guardian ninja of the Fire Nation at the age of 15.

At that time, she always thought that her talent was powerful, until she met the real guardian twelve ninjas.

The strength of the twelve guardian ninjas was beyond her imagination.

At that time, she secretly vowed that she must become as powerful as the Guardian Ninja, and become a true Guardian Twelve Ninja, rather than just being a Guardian Ninja reserve.

This time, along with the diplomatic mission, there are three people who are also members of the Twelve Ninja reserves, just like Frost Rain, to protect Shin Kagami Nakata.

Together with Dongmao Frozen Rain, there are Beizi Beigen, Nanwu Chengma and Xidu Xingdou, they are all the best of this group.
