Chapter 35 Takigakure Village

Fu returned to the village. That was the military strength of a village. Even if the military strength of the ninjas of Takigakure Village was not strong, it was not something that wandering ninjas or people from other large ninja villages could plunder at will.

It is a consensus in the ninja world that large ninja villages are not allowed to interfere in the politics, military affairs and development of other villages. You can influence, but you are not allowed to control.

This is the way for the small ninja villages to survive, and the small ninja villages are the buffer zones between the big ninja villages. If there were no small ninja villages, the war between the big ninja villages would break out directly, and there would be no room for maneuver between the big countries.

This was also during the Second World War in the Ninja World. Although there were several major countries at war, it was always the small ninja villages like the Land of the Rain that were affected by the war.

After Minato Namikaze finished the arrangements, he took out a few Flying Thunder God Kunai and distributed them to several people. "Take the Kunai. I will come to you after I finish this."

Minato took out a scroll from the ninja tool bag on his back and handed it to Kakashi, "This summoning scroll can be activated by inputting chakra. I will get there as quickly as possible when the time comes."

After saying that, Minato Namikaze created several shadow clones, transformed into the appearance of several people, and continued along the original route.

Watching Minato Namikaze slowly walking away, Kakashi confirmed the new route again.

"Let's go. Don't hold the teacher back. We have to send Fu back as quickly as possible." Kakashi waved his hand, and several people disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Nohara Lin put Fu in her arms on her back and said, "Fu, hold on tight. Sister will help you feel the wind, okay?"

"Okay." Fu agreed happily while lying on Nohara Lin's back.

By the river, several figures were moving quickly among the woods.

As the sun slowly sets in the west.

Okamoto Dousuke, Kakashi and others stopped in front of a towering rock wall.

"According to the map, behind this rock wall is Takigakure Village." Kakashi took out the map and took a look.

"Wow, how are we going to get over this high?" Obito shouted as he looked at the almost straight cliff in front of him.

"Obito, have you and Rin learned to climb trees?" Okamoto Dousuke asked, touching the rock wall with his hand. The rock wall was not smooth, so they could climb up by climbing a tree.

"I can climb trees, but I'm not stable." Obito felt Okamoto Dousuke's gaze and scratched his head embarrassedly.

"I'm fine, but I'm worried that my chakra won't hold up." Nohara Lin replied.

After a moment of contemplation, he said, "I will take care of Fu and Obito. I will leave Rin to you, Kakashi."

"Well, okay, let's do it without further ado. If you can't hold on, just speak up. Doujie and I will help you."

Okamoto Dousuke took the sleeping Fu from Lin's back, took out clothes from his backpack, wrapped her around his chest to secure her, and covered her chest with a water film to form a vest shape.

"Dousuke, is this the ninjutsu that blocked my close-range attack during the ranking match against me?" Kakashi said, pointing at the water film on Dousuke Okamoto's body.

"Yes, but this jutsu is not perfect yet."

"She can still fall asleep, this little girl is really generous." Looking at Fu who was grinding her teeth in her sleep, Okamoto Dousuke smiled and touched her face.

"Teacher Minato said that the sealing technique of the Takigakure Village has flaws. That's why Fu is constantly invaded by the Seven-Tails' chakra, and the manifestation is drowsiness. It's too early for her to become a jinchūriki at her age." Nohara Rin took out a rope from the ninja tool bag and tied it around her waist.

Looking at Obito and Nohara Rin who were fully prepared, Okamoto Dousuke and Kakashi looked at each other.

"Let's go." Several people shouted.

Chakra spread all over their feet, and several people ran up the cliff.

When he was halfway through the run, the chakra in Obito's left foot suddenly disappeared.

My body fell downwards, my feet could no longer maintain balance, and I fell straight down.

"Ah, ah. Ah!"

Obito screamed and fell downwards.

Hearing Obito's shout, Nohara Lin slowed down her pace and subconsciously wanted to look back.

"Rin, don't look back, run up." Seeing Nohara Rin's slowed pace, Kakashi shouted in a low voice.

"With Doujie here, you have to trust him." Kakashi added firmly. After saying that, Kakashi's heart was filled with ripples. Is this a companion? He can be trusted unconditionally and his back can be entrusted to him without any worries!

"Yeah." After hearing what Kakashi said, Nohara Rin sped up and rushed upwards.

On the other side, Okamoto Dousuke was shocked when he heard Obito's shout.

Although I had prepared for an accident before this, but it is still inevitable to be distracted when an accident happens.

Okamoto Dousuke paused, formed seals with his hands, and spit out a long stream of water from his mouth. It quickly grew longer and extended downwards, wrapping around Obito's ankles.

"Huh, huh, I'm saved." Obito gasped for breath, looking like he had survived a disaster.

"Relax, Obito, and stay calm." Okamoto Dousuke grabbed the chakra stream in his hand and shouted at Obito below.

Obito took a few deep breaths, grabbed the chakra flow to steady his body, put his feet on the cliff, and slowly walked up to Okamoto Dousuke's side.

"Okay, let's go." Looking at Obito who was walking to his side, Okamoto Dousuke dispersed the water jutsu in his hand and nodded at him.

Above the two people, Kakashi watched them safe out of the corner of his eye and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

There were no other problems during the rest of the journey, and the group successfully reached the top of the rock wall.

"Take a break." Kakashi said to Rin and Obito who were lying exhausted.

After saying that, Kakashi looked at Okamoto Dousuke who was observing everything and walked up to him, "Don't you want to take a break?"

Okamoto Dousuke waved his hand and refused, "No need, I know my own situation well."

Although Okamoto Dousuke's chakra volume is not as high as Kakashi's, his chakra control is much better than the others. He really makes the best use of every bit of chakra.

Use the least amount of chakra to achieve the greatest effect. Don't waste even a single bit.

After resting for a while, Obito and Rin gradually recovered.

Looking at Okamoto Dousuke and Kakashi who were checking the terrain, Obito said, "As expected, they were the two people who were ranked first in our class."

"You're already great, Obito," Lin smiled sweetly at Obito.

Hehehe, looking at Rin smiling at him, Obito fell into a weird fantasy again.

At this time, Okamoto Dosuke and Kakashi walked over, Kakashi interrupted Obito's fantasy and said, "The two of us have found a safe way to go down, let's go."

Several people stood up and walked down the mountain.

Under the leadership of Kakashi and Okamoto Dousuke, several people successfully got down the mountain.

Several people walked on a small path in the field. There were waterfalls flowing everywhere, and the remaining river water gathered into ponds of different sizes.

The criss-cross ditches irrigate the water from the ponds to the fields.In the quiet night, the sound of insects came from the rice fields.

"Kakashi, how should we find the people from Takigakure Village?" Okamoto Dousuke asked with a little doubt.

Although their original intention was to send the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki back to Takigakure Village, their actions already constituted an invasion of the ninja village.

"I don't have any better solution for now, so I'll just take it one step at a time." Kakashi lowered his head and spread his hands with a helpless expression.
