Chapter 114 Beheading Operation in the Kingdom of Rain!
The setting sun casts a dim light, making the sky and earth distinct.
The breeze blowing from the horizon carries the coolness of early spring evening,
Lifting the roots of Uchiha Ci's hair.
He was stunned.
What?
The first task of becoming a root ninja is to rub the boss's back?
What kind of workplace bullying is this when you become a mule on the first day of employment?
Uchiha raised his hand, trying to save something,
"No, wait, I think our roots should have more urgent tasks."
However, Aburame Ryoma shook his head and looked back,
His eyes under his sunglasses were penetrating and sharp, and he slowly interrupted:
"Okay, kid."
"At least here, no one wants to harm you."
"You are too tight. You haven't had a good rest for a long time. Your body is always on alert and preparing for a fight, even now."
Ryoma Aburame looked at Uchiha's tight thighs and the way his other hand always subconsciously wiped his lower back,
Seeing the other party's state, he sighed,
"In this state, you will not be able to complete the next task well."
Aburame Ryoma turned around, stepped on the wooden steps with her wooden clogs, and walked towards the white mist floating in the hot spring bathhouse.
"I've been in this country for so many days,"
"You probably haven't been to the hot springs in Yuno Country yet, right?"
"Let's try it."
Uchiha Ci frowned slightly, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what the other party was thinking.
I had no choice but to follow step by step, passed the front desk, went to the locker room to change into my yukata, and then took a shower under the guidance of the veteran Ryoma.
Finally, by some strange coincidence, the two of them soaked in the hot spring.
"Hiss."
Soak your body in the steaming hot spring pool with white mist,
Uchiha Ci immediately felt a completely different experience from the last time he experienced the high boiling temperature created by the Hidden Earth Platform of Buoyun.
The water in the pool was around 43 degrees. After soaking in it, my mind, which was a mess and full of high pressure, seemed to calm down instantly.
It made his little face flush slightly, and he felt that the pores all over his body were stretched.
The whole person was paralyzed by the pool, not wanting to move.
Uchiha turned his head and looked at Aburame Ryoma beside him with some confusion, and asked:
"This seems a little different from the basic ninja career I imagined?"
"Besides, isn't it said that the root ninja 'has no name and no emotions'?"
Ryoma Aburame leaned against the edge of the pool, raised her hand to pick up a bottle of sake, and took a pleasant sip.
He was silent for a while and then shook his head.
"How can a ninja truly lose his feelings?"
"Most of the Root ninjas are the second sons and youngest sons of the family. For the sake of the family, they have to join the Roots. They undergo cruel and inhumane training and become a machine with no emotions and can only kill with a knife and complete the mission."
"Just like our Aburame clan, one of Zhihei and Zhiwei's children will definitely join the root in the future. There is no way around it."
"But I am an exception, and so are you."
Uchiha Ci raised his eyebrows slightly, thought for a moment, and looked at Aburame Ryoma's age, and became convinced.
The roots were created after Hiruzen Sarutobi became Hokage, and at that time, Aburame Ryoma was already a ninja in her own right.
And the deputy commander of the roots in front of him, Aburame Ryoma.
The other person's apparent taciturnity and preference to act alone are actually a way to hide his unknown side.
Uchiha Ci was silent for a moment, raised his head and asked:
"You should know that I am an Uchiha. Genbu and Uchiha don't seem to have such a good relationship."
"So, why are you telling me this?"
Aburame Ryoma sighed and rubbed his head in a somewhat troubled manner.
"Although Orochimaru accepts you as a disciple, he seems to have agreed to some conditions for that adult, and he has other things to do on the battlefield of the Land of Rain."
"So, you were assigned to my subordinates during Operation Rain Country."
"And I've always been used to acting alone, and I'm not good at taking care of the feelings of my subordinates."
"The village and the family, the roots and the Uchiha, to be honest, I didn't think about it that much."
"Just as a boss, I hope you can be more honest."
"That's the first reason."
After hearing these words, Uchiha's expression changed as he spoke,
Looking at it like this, Orochimaru really paid a lot in order to tie himself to him and obtain the forbidden technique and physical transformation of himself.
then,
Aburame Ryoma paused, and after being silent for a long time, she slowly spoke:
"Besides, if you really have to ask why,"
"that is because--"
"I see a different future in you."
"We, the so-called root ninjas, are a group of nameless people who support peace in the darkness."
Aburame Ryoma raised her head, looked at the crescent moon rising in the sky, and said with some emotion:
"For our group of people, giving up names, giving up feelings, giving up the past and the future is not something worth mentioning."
"However, even if I am burdened with darkness, I still hope that this power can be used in a positive way, and the root ninja, even if it is unknown, should also"
Having said this, Aburame Ryoma suddenly stopped talking, shook his head and said:
"Forget it, why should I tell you this?"
He reached out and took out a scroll by the pool, threw it towards Uchiha, closed his eyes and said in a deep voice:
"This is your next mission."
"At first, I didn't understand why Orochimaru appointed you to complete such a dangerous mission."
"Now, I probably understand a little bit, but for you, this mission is still far more dangerous than a normal S-class mission."
Uchiha Ci looked stern and took the scroll.
This green leather scroll has a very solemn cloud pattern, and the lacquer seal on the scroll belt has the extremely formal Konoha Village logo.
At this time,
Aburame Ryoma opened her eyes and burped with a serious expression:
"There is only so much time for you to rest. Now, remember the route above, then destroy the scroll and keep these contents in your heart."
"I will explain the mission on the way!"
"Remember to have a good rest tonight. We will set off on time at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
After that, Aburame Ryoma stood up and climbed to the edge of the pool, wiped herself with a towel, and walked to the sauna.
soon,
In the pool filled with moonlight, only Uchiha Ci was left.
He looked at the scroll in his hand with a stern look on his face.
He immediately tore off the sealing paint and unfolded it with a wave of his hand.
Then,
He saw a horribly detailed road map.
Starting from the position of Konoha in the Land of Rain,
Draw a circle inward to mark the four positions of Sunagakure on the front line, and go around these positions as if dancing on the tip of a knife, going deep into the Land of Rain and reaching the border of the Land of Earth.
Then cross the rock statues on the border of the Land of Earth, and pass through the top-secret natural fortress formed by desolate rock walls and rocky mountains.
Finally, before arriving at the Earth Country Iwagakure Village,
A circle-shaped rock canyon area that is perfect for ambush.
At the end of the scroll is written the name and goal of this mission——
"The Rain Country Beheading Operation!" 》
Beheading target:
The new Yondaime Kazekage——
Luo Sha!
