Chapter 28 Teammates Who Come To Monitor

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked up at the bespectacled beauty.

This is his own exclusive secretary assistant, who is usually responsible for delivering and processing trivial documents, etc.

"Sir Third Generation, the investigation you entrusted to the intelligence department has come to fruition."

"This is all the information we have found. It has been compiled and compiled. Please take a look."

The beautiful secretary brought a pile of information to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

These are all relevant information about the Kingdom of the Sea that Sarutobi Hiruzen ordered to investigate before.

Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that there were indeed records about the Sea Kingdom in the intelligence materials compiled by historians from Konoha Village and even the entire Fire Kingdom.

But that country is said to have existed thousands of years ago. During the subsequent changes in the ninja world, it gradually withdrew from the stage of history and disappeared in the long river of history.

According to records, the legendary Sea Country does indeed exist very, very far away overseas.

The few records that can be verified bluntly state that it is a country that ordinary people can never reach.

Because to go to the country of the sea, you need to cross the endless sea and sail hundreds of thousands of miles.

But the weather on the sea changes rapidly, with violent storms, lightning, thunder, and roaring waves that swallow up countless lives every year.

Only a few can make it safely from the ocean voyage.

This is also an important reason why there is almost no evidence of communication between the Kingdom of the Sea and the ninja world.

It's really too far apart.

In the past, the daimyo of several countries in the ninja world also tried to send envoys to the sea to find this legendary sea country.

But all the envoys that set out, no matter how large the fleets were, never returned.

In addition, the Jōnin world has been in constant war for thousands of years, and the situation is very unstable.

All countries are busy preparing for war and developing their economies, and there is simply no extra time, energy or money to do other things.

Therefore, the matter ended later.

After reading the information in his hand, Sarutobi Hiruzen blew out a puff of smoke from a distance.

"So... this Lin Yan may really come from the Kingdom of the Sea."

"He didn't lie?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen muttered to himself.

After a moment, he raised his head and looked at the beautiful secretary, nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. It's already dark. Go back and rest early."

…

The next day, the sun rises.

Lin Yan took Naruto to the training ground outside the village to conduct the same training as the previous day.

After a while, the two brothers Sasuke and Itachi also appeared here facing the rising sun.

"Naruto, Sasuke, you two, practice yourselves according to the essentials of yesterday's movements."

Lin Yan noticed that There was something wrong with Itachi's expression. After telling the two boys to practice on their own, he and Itachi walked aside to talk.

"Third Generation-sama asked me and Kakashi to team up with you."

"Who is Kakashi?"

"A member of Anbu like me."

"Oh? Have you started to trust me?"

Lin Yan said with a playful smile.

But Uchiha Itachi remained silent.

He stared at his younger brother Sasuke in the distance, who was practicing the essentials of Taijutsu with Naruto seriously, even with a hint of competition. After a while, he spoke again.

"There will be a task that needs to be performed today. It is not a too difficult task, so you don't have to be too nervous."

"Just follow us."

"How much?"

Lin Yan blurted out and asked.

"?"

Itachi looked over in shock, as if he didn't expect that Lin Yan only cared about this issue.

"Ninja needs to eat, so do I, right?"

Lin Yan explained with a smile.

Itachi nodded: "Remuneration for B-level tasks is generally between 50,000 and 150,000 taels."

"The reward for our mission today is 150,000 taels. This is the money that comes into our hands. We will divide it equally between you, me and Kakashi-senpai."

Lin Yan held his chin and muttered: "That's fifty thousand taels per person."

"This little money isn't that great... If Naruto has one meal, I'll be gone after one meal."

Itachi said that he had no way to answer this.

He simply remained silent.

"When to set off?"

Seeing that Weasel remained silent, Lin Yan asked.

Just as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly jumped out of the woods and landed next to the two people in the shade.

He wears an animal mask and dresses no differently from Anbu members.

But Lin Yan knew who he was just by looking at his long silver hair.

"This is Kakashi-senpai."

Because the top of the village issued an order, in order to protect Naruto, the secret that he was Nine Tails Jinchūriki must not be known.

"We need to escort a businessman who came to Konoha to do business back to his own country, the Country of Yu."

After looking around, Lin Yan turned to look back at Kakashi and Itachi.

"I'll go talk to them."

After saying that, he looked outside the woods and glanced at Naruto and Sasuke who were training in the distance.

"I have already told Mr. Third Generation."

"Let's go."

But Kakashi did not express these thoughts.

Kakashi told the two of them the mission of this operation.

After hearing this, Kakashi said no more.

Kakashi didn't want to make too many guesses, but those thoughts came to his mind uncontrollably.

Kakashi, on the other hand, looked at Lin Yan and said calmly: "Because this is your first mission, you must follow the command in all your actions."

"I am the team leader Kakashi. I am now responsible for explaining to you the content and requirements of this mission."

"We will need to act according to circumstances when the time comes..."

Kakashi said again.

Lin Yan curled his lips when he heard about the low-level task of escorting a businessman.

Lin Yan saw this and followed him.

But Kakashi couldn't say it.

"Which way to go?"

The two waited for a while, and Lin Yan came back.

The two of them didn't say anything. They jumped onto the tree and rushed back towards the village.

Seeing his actions, Kakashi said to Itachi: "Does Third Generation-sama know about this?"

However, it is rumored that the Uchiha clan controlled Nine Tails and attacked Konoha. This matter has not been investigated clearly until now.

Lin Yan walked directly towards Naruto and Sasuke.

He knew Naruto's identity and knew that this child was the biological son of his teacher, Namikaze Minato.

Itachi took the initiative to introduce.

It seems like those two little guys are quite close.

"We're leaving now."

There was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Since the Third Hokage already knows everything, let it be decided by the Third Generation.

"But according to the intelligence we received, this businessman has been targeted by hostile ninjas, which means we may encounter enemies along the way."

He was a little worried.

Therefore, keeping this child as low-key as possible and not attracting attention is the best way to protect him.

But now, Kakashi didn't expect that Naruto would actually get together with the Uchiha clan.

If Naruto and the Uchiha clan get too close, accidents may happen.
