0007 Kikyou Mountain Battle Queen (Ch 0007)

“Since it’s so early, let’s set off early!” Dong Si and Nachi just started chatting when the sound of Thunderbird was heard in the distance.

Dong Si turned his head and saw Lei Niao and Zhu Yin walking towards him. It seemed that they met on the way.

“Hello, Mr. Thunderbird, hello, Akane-san!” Nachi suddenly seemed different from before, and became enthusiastic and proactive towards all his teammates.

The few people did not stop on the river bank, but just talked as they walked, but all they said were polite words that had nothing to do with the content of the mission.

It was not until they were some distance away from the Konoha gate that Thunderbird began to briefly introduce the situation on Mount Kikyo.

But… there was no mention of Orochimaru at all.

Their main task is to clean up “garbage” in the woods around Platycodon Mountain.

A few people chatted from time to time, but most of the time they were in silence and walking.

At their speed, it would take at least a day and a night.

Although Toushi was at the end of the formation, Akane, who was the second to last, was the one the whole team needed to accommodate.

The leading Thunderbird had tested this by adjusting the speed several times. Perhaps it was a small test for everyone in order to coordinate with the team.

It was reasonable for the captain to understand the strength of the three rookies. After all, even the bell grabbing test was omitted.

Yes, routine tests like grabbing the bell have been cancelled. That kind of test is not just to find out the strength of the newcomers, but more importantly to test the newcomers’ internal qualities.

That’s right, the training for tool people will be different in different periods.

Konoha’s requirement for the recent generations of Genin is to be able to withstand pressure and grow… Those who cannot withstand pressure and have their names engraved on the memorial tablet can only blame themselves for being too incompetent.

However, those who are not good may not necessarily meet the political needs of their time.

It was during the war years that Konoha White Fang Hatake Sakumo did things that went against the political orientation of the time, and he was attacked by public opinion and was forced to commit suicide.

Once a war requires a large number of tools to participate in the war, the tools are required to obey orders unconditionally and abandon their emotions. It doesn’t matter whether you are strong or weak.

This is what happened to Dong Si and other people who graduated early. Those who could almost be used as tools were pulled out and used like slaves.

On the contrary, someone like Kakashi’s father is powerful enough to influence the values ​​of most people. Once he makes a mistake like that, it will be difficult to end it. After all, the village’s top leaders can’t help but blame him, because that is the attitude of the entire village.

Not to mention Danzo’s mischief. Just the fact that such a strong man who values ​​loyalty, affection and reputation is so reviled is a shame.

The strong and the weak are equally helpless in this era; the only difference is the cause of death.

In the eyes of the village’s top leaders, they are all tools.

Therefore, as a weak person, Dong Si has long realized that strength is confidence, and only with strength can one protect himself, and he should not be the first to stand out, nor should he be an idol. While actively improving his image, he should not be too proud!

The battlefield is dangerous, and the village is also dangerous!

The only way for Konoha ninjas to survive today is to be strong enough and be low-key and pragmatic.

For example, Dong Si has been keeping a low profile and controlling his movement speed to a level slightly lower than that of Izuno Nachi. This way, he will not be looked down upon by Thunderbird and abandoned at any time, nor will he be considered as having strength and assigned more dangerous tasks.

The four members of the team hurried on their way, each with their own thoughts, jumping and shuttling back and forth monotonously and repetitively in the seemingly endless woods, until after ten o’clock in the evening…they could finally rest for a few hours.

After eating the dry food for dinner, even excluding the one and a half hours that each person took turns to keep watch, they could each still have a light sleep for four and a half hours.

When daybreak came, they entered the post-war Kikyo Mountain.
