Itachi stood alone in the corner of the Kusanagi Mission Hall, looking at the Kusanagi Ninja Team coming and going, as well as Cold Wind and the others playing together, he was as lonely as a child.
Fortunately, Kakashi didn't stay for long.
"Let's go." Kakashi said to everyone.
"Captain Kakashi, what did the Kusanagi Ninja say?" Tenzō asked.
"He wanted to send someone to help us, but I refused." Kakashi turned and walked out.
It's not that Kakashi doesn't trust the Kusanagi, but he's afraid that they will drag them down.
People from big cities look down on small cities, and Kakashi from the Great Village also looks down on small Ninjas from the Kusanagi Village.
However, the Kusanagi Ninja's leader provided some useful information about the Rock Ninjas at the border.
"The Rock Ninjas at the border seem to be heading towards the Rain Country." Kakashi said solemnly.
The Rain Country intersects with the Fire, Earth, and Wind Country. It's an important strategic location. In the past three Shinobi World Wars, the Rain Country has always been the center of the war between the three major countries.
So, Kakashi was very worried about the Rock Ninjas moving towards the Rain Country.
Cold Wind wasn't worried. Although he didn't know what the Rock Ninjas were planning, he was sure that there won't be a Shinobi World War.
So, he can relax and think of it as a vacation.
After leaving the Kusanagi Village, the group once again went into the green forest.
…
Near the border of the Earth, Grass, and Rain Country, under the towering barren rock wall, nearly a hundred Rock Ninjas were moving forward quickly.
The leader was Yamabashi Ichio, a high-level consultant of the Rock Village.
Yamabashi Ichio was from the same period as Onoki, and he had a high position in the Rock Village. During the Third Shinobi World War, he led the Rock Army to besiege Po Shui Mun, Cold Wind, and others. Unfortunately, he failed.
"Senpai, the Rock Rain is coming!" Suddenly, a perceptive Rock Ninja jumped to Yamabashi Ichio and respectfully reported.
Shan Qiao stopped and turned to look at the sky. He saw that the bright and beautiful sky had been covered by a huge yellow cloud at some point in time. A dull breeze floated in the air.
First Admiral Shan Qiao frowned. The Country of Earth had many rock walls. When the wind got stronger, the small rocks on the rock walls would be blown into the sky and fall down together with the wind, bringing a great disaster to the people of the Country of Earth!
"Rest on the spot. Be careful not to get injured." First General Shan Qiao ordered.
"Yes!"
The Rock Ninjas behind him immediately attached themselves to the rock wall and used Earth Release to create a hard curved rock wall to avoid the incoming rock rain.
A few minutes later, along with a strong gust of wind, the fine rocks that filled the sky rained down, slamming against the ground and rock walls.
The small rocks gathered together, and in the blink of an eye, the ground was covered by a thick layer of rocks!
"Did the other teams discover anything?" First Admiral Shan Qiao knelt behind a curved rock wall, his aged face carrying a hint of worry.
"Sir, not yet." The sensor Ninja next to him replied.
"Old Roshi is too impulsive." First General Shan Qiao sighed.
Old Roshi is the Yonbi Column Force of the Rock Village. He has a stubborn personality. Some time ago, he suddenly quarreled with Onoki, and the quarrel became more and more fierce. In the end, he left the Rock Village without permission.
If it was someone else, he would have left, but Old Roshi is the Column Force, an important strategic force of the Rock Village. As the Third Tsuchikage, how can Onoki let Old Roshi leave like this?
Therefore, Onoki immediately sent First General Shan Qiao to lead a thousand Rock Ninjas to catch Old Roshi.
Unfortunately, Old Roshi was always one step ahead of them, and by the time they reached the border of the country, Old Roshi had disappeared without a trace. So, Yamabashi had no choice but to divide the Rock Shinobi into ten teams, and divide them into ten search areas, hoping to stop Old Roshi before he leaves the Earth Country!
But after a few days, they still didn't find any trace of Old Roshi.
Papapapa …
The rain of rocks continued to fall from noon to evening. Only then did the heavy yellow clouds dissipate.
First General Shan Qiao immediately ordered them to continue their journey.
Two hours later, a few fist-sized bees suddenly shot down from the rock wall.
"It's the bees raised by the Uchiha Clan, what's the news?"
"Sir First General Shan Qiao, why did you bring someone from the Insect Controlling Clan?"
Seeing these huge bees, many Rock Ninjas showed a disdainful smile and whispered in disdain.
His voice wasn't heavy, but it was clearly heard by Black Bee of the Kamui Clan.
"These bastards!"
Black Bee gritted his teeth.
Once upon a time, the Uplifted Clan was one of the most powerful clans in the Rock Village, but they were defeated by the Aburame Clan and were banished by the Rock Village. Since then, the Uplifted Clan had completely declined, and now, there were only a few of them left.
And Black Bee was one of them.
"Black Bee, Sir Shan Qiao wants you to go."
While the Black Bee was still angry, the Rock Shinobi sent an order.
Black Bee responded in a muffled voice. At the same time, he took out a bottle and removed the cork.
A weird smell drifted out of the jar. After a few seconds, those huge bees that had fallen off the cliff followed the smell and flew towards Zhang Tie with a buzzing sound.
Black Bee used his right hand to drag these big bees, and while rushing towards Shan Qiao, he used the secret method of the Uchiha Clan to decipher the information contained in these big bees.
Grass Country …
Wood Leaf …
Anbu …
Black Bee frowned, this wasn't good news!
"Black Bee, is there any news?" Shan Qiao saw him coming, and his eyes flashed with a touch of nostalgia. The honey made by the bees of the Uchiha Clan was delicious.
"Yes, Sir, we found Wood Leaf Anbu in the Grass Country!" Black Bee arrived and immediately reported.
"What?!"
The nostalgia on Shan Qiao's face quickly dissipated, and his old face gradually became gloomy. "Did that idiot Old Purple collude with Wood Leaf?"
"Sama, the information only mentioned Konoha's Anbu," Black Bee said truthfully.
Yamabashi Ichido narrowed his eyes and said to himself, 'So, the Anbu of Konoha may have been attracted by our movements.'
But we can't rule out the possibility that they are here to help Old Purple!
Shan Qiao pondered, "But no matter what, it is necessary to warn these Wood Leaf Anbu!"
…
Deep in the forest of the Grass Country, almost half a day away from the borders of the Grass Country, Earth Country, and Rain Country, Kakashi ordered them to rest for half a day.
Han Feng and the others immediately found a small stream. After taking a cold bath, they dispersed to hunt in the wild. After a while, the aroma of various kinds of meat came from the stream: roasted rabbit, roasted pheasant, snake soup …
While Hanfeng was drooling over the aroma of the meat, Tian Cang, who was next to him, suddenly poked his arm, then pouted and whispered, "Brother Moonlight, do you think those bees have been following us?"
Han Feng turned his head to look and saw a few bees buzzing on a few wildflowers not far away, collecting honey.
Picking flowers in front of my eyes?
Cold Wind was shocked and angry at the same time. Without saying a word, he rushed up and crushed the wildflowers.
Who told you to seduce people?!
Cold Wind returned to his seat full of energy and continued to barbecue, but the corner of his eye kept watching the bees.
After a while, the hardworking bees buzzed to the other side and began to pick flowers.
"Brother Moonlight?" Tenzō leaned over.
Cold Wind nodded slightly: "Yes, there is a problem."
This forest is big, there are all kinds of wild flowers. What's more, the forest of the Country of Grass is so big. These little bees can pick flowers anywhere, but they have to pick flowers in front of them. Moreover, after Hanfeng mercilessly destroyed the flowers, they didn't leave. Isn't this clearly telling Hanfeng that I'm a flower thief?
It's just …
The ninjas of the Rock Village have always been tall and clumsy, how can they control insects?
"In the Rock Village, there is an Uplifting Clan. Like the Aburame Clan in our village, they are good at controlling bees, but it is said that they have declined." Kakashi suddenly whispered
Cold Wind and Tenzō's movements were not hidden from Kakashi, so at this time, although the sixth team was quietly barbecuing, their attention was focused on the hardworking bees.
"It seems that we have been discovered by the Rock Ninjas."
"What should we do now, Captain Kakashi?"
The Ninjas looked at Kakashi.
Kakashi thought for a moment and whispered: "Let's perceive the surroundings first."
"Understood." The Ninja responsible for perception in the team turned his back to the bees and began to use hand seals.
After a while, he opened his eyes and shook his head: "There is no trace of ninjas within 30 miles."
"The Uplifted Clan is something." Cold Wind praised.
"Can't we track the Rock Ninjas through these bees?" Tenzō asked.
"Sorry, it can't be done."
The Ninja shook his head and sighed, "If it is the Aburame Clan, maybe we can find them."
"Captain Kakashi …" The team members looked at Kakashi again.
"Let's get rid of these bees first."
Kakashi looked at Itachi Uchiha and asked, "Itachi Uchiha, can you use Genjutsu to confuse these bees?"
Itachi Uchiha was stunned.
Let him use Genjutsu to confuse bees?
Captain Kakashi, are you serious?!
Itachi Uchiha's face seemed to be deeper.
"I will try."
Itachi Uchiha's eyes narrowed, and when he opened his eyes again, his dark pupils had turned into three tomoe Sharingan.
His scarlet pupils exuded a faint, mysterious aura. Even though they were teammates, Kakashi and the others subconsciously averted their gazes.
Itachi Uchiha didn't care, he took out a small mirror and began to use Genjutsu through it.
