Chapter 32 Preparation

You have to know that in Minato's team, Namikaze Minato himself possesses strength far beyond that of a jonin.

There is also Kakashi, a genius ninja who graduated at the age of five, became a Chunin at the age of six, and is said to have developed his own A-level ninjutsu. His strength far exceeds that of ordinary Chunins, and can even rival some of the weaknesses of special Jonins.

Even Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin in the team are two well-behaved ninja school graduates. As Genin from a large ninja village like Konoha, their strength can even be compared to the Chunin among wandering ninjas.

A captain with strength far exceeding that of a jonin, and team members who are comparable to special jonin.

This team configuration even exceeded the standard of the team that Dousuke Okamoto used to perform scouting missions.

If the team did not have disciples of the Three Ninjas, members of the Uchiha clan, and the son of Konoha hero White Fang, this team should be able to carry out the most dangerous missions, not even ordinary A-rank escort missions.

Moreover, as his teacher, Jiraiya believed that there were people in the entire ninja world who could defeat Minato Namikaze, but there were almost no people who could catch him. The Flying Thunder God Technique inherently made Minato Namikaze invincible.

This mission was difficult for even Minato Namikaze who possessed the Flying Thunder God Technique, so Jiraiya had to take it seriously.

"It's like this, teacher, have you seen this child?" Minato Namikaze pointed at Fu who was sleeping soundly beside him.

"This child's name is Fu, and she's the new generation of Seven-Tails Jinchuriki." Before Jiraiya could ask, Minato Namikaze revealed the child's identity.

"The A-level escort mission we accepted was originally to escort a merchant caravan from Taki Country, and it was also issued by Mr. Changchi, the owner of this manor."

"On the way to Taki no Kuni, I discovered that the Sand Village's torture team appeared in the Fire Country's territory. Because Kakashi was in the team, I asked him to lead the team to continue escorting, and I followed them. It was at that time that I met the retreating team of Dousuke."

"It was all thanks to Minato-kun at that time, otherwise our team would have been wiped out," Okamoto Dousuke confirmed what Minato Namikaze said.

Namikaze Minato continued: "After I sent Dousuke and the others back to the village, I returned to the team. During that time, we fought off two waves of stray ninjas. Later, I met this child."

"It was a Chunin who escaped from Takikuni with this child. When he met our team, this Chunin was on the verge of death, and was relying on something he called the Hero's Water." Having said this, Namikaze Minato took out a gourd, a jade pendant and a map from his ninja tool bag and placed them on the table.

"This is the Hero's Water that the ninja gave me, and the map of Takigakure Village. He said this pendant is a token from the child's mother, and he asked me to send the child to Takigakure Village."

"On the subsequent journey, a ninja came after us, and their target was this child."

"Although they were not wearing forehead protectors, their style of action was obviously that of the Anbu of the Great Ninja Village, and they mostly used earth escape techniques. Although I fought them off at that time, I was also injured because of protecting this child." Namikaze Minato raised his arm, and the bandage inside could be seen through the torn coat.

"I suspect that a ninja with this level of ability is definitely not an unknown person, but may be a member of the Tsuchikage's Shadow Guard."

"Why isn't the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki in the Ninja Village?" Jiraiya frowned. Generally speaking, as a military force in a village, it is impossible for the Jinchuriki to leave the village.

"That Chunin claimed that they escaped secretly, but were chased by a group of ninjas. If they hadn't wanted to catch this child, they would have been killed long ago."

"Is the other party's target the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki?" Jiraiya looked at the sleeping child.

"Yes, Sensei. I had originally planned that Kakashi would lead Rin and Obito to send the child back to Takigakure Village first. After all, this is about the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki. I will go find out the identity of the invading ninjas."

"When we were fighting, I sprinkled Mr. Gamahara's glandular fluid on the leading ninja."

"How about this, I'll go track down that group of ninjas. You're injured again, so you take these guys to send the Seven-Tails back. Something like this, which is related to the military strength of a village, should be returned to its original owner as soon as possible to avoid causing unnecessary trouble." Jiraiya said, looking at Minato's injured arm.

Seeing that Minato Namikaze was about to say something, Jiraiya waved his hand and interrupted him directly, saying: "My infiltration level is much higher than yours. No matter whether those guys are from the Hidden Earth Village or not, I know everything. Don't worry."

"Thank you for your hard work, teacher." Looking at Jiraiya's expression, Minato Namikaze didn't say anything else.

"It's okay. I'll leave this kid to you as well." Jiraiya pointed at Okamoto Dousuke.

"I will take good care of Dousuke." Namikaze Minato looked at Okamoto Dousuke who was sitting next to him and nodded in agreement.

As soon as the conversation between Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya ended.

Obito and Rin, who were sitting nearby, couldn't wait to sit next to Okamoto Dousuke. Although Kakashi didn't make any big moves, he glanced over.

"Dousuke, listen carefully. From now on, whenever you see me, you must call me senior. Do you hear me?" Obito stood up, put his hands on his hips, bent down, and looked down at Okamoto Dousuke.

Hearing what Obito said, Kakashi beside him couldn't help but snorted, causing Obito to glare at him fiercely.

Okamoto Dousuke, who was sitting, raised his head and glanced at Obito, and said calmly: "In terms of seniority, Minato and I are both disciples of the Three Ninjas, so we are of the same generation. Logically, you should call me uncle-master."

“(⊙o⊙)…” Obito was completely stunned. Did he sell myself out?

Nohara Lin sat next to Okamoto Dousuke, "Dousuke, welcome to join our team! You don't have to worry about getting hurt in the future. Hehe!"

"I hope my medical ninjutsu won't be of any use."

"Brother Minato, please give me your guidance." Okamoto Dousuke said to Minato Namikaze who was sitting next to him.

"With you joining, our safety is guaranteed." Namikaze Minato looked at Okamoto Dousuke with a smile.

Having an extra medical ninja in the team will greatly improve the survival of team members.

Just when Jiraiya was about to say something, an old voice came from the outside of the door: "Lord Minato, my master has prepared dinner, please come over."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Butler Kitamura." Namikaze Minato walked to the door, opened the paper door and thanked the old butler at the door.

"Teacher, let's go over there. We have been bothering Mr. Nagaike these past two days. Lin has called Fu to go eat." Namikaze Minato turned around and said to Jiraiya and the others.

The dinner was a banquet held in the main house of the manor. The Nagaike family prepared a very sumptuous banquet, and there were dancers accompanying them.

Obito sat aside and looked at Jiraiya who was drinking happily between two dancers, "Doujie, are you sure you came here with Minato's master, Jiraiya who is known as the Three Ninjas of Konoha in the ninja world?"

"He came here with me. He is Jiraiya, one of the Three Ninjas." Looking at Jiraiya who was drinking unrestrainedly, Okamoto Dousuke couldn't help but cover his face?

But when I think about it, it’s not surprising that my future teacher Tsunade can turn into a child to avoid gambling debts.
