Naruto: The Byakugan is weak? I’m super strong! Chapter 078

Konoha.

Hyuga Soratsuki had been thinking these past few days whether his main body had been successfully transplanted.

And whether he could leave Konoha as soon as possible.

The eerie feeling of this place was growing stronger.

For many days, he had successively completed five missions.

A few days ago, he even took on a mission to escort the daimyo’s offspring of the Land of Lakes.

It was upgraded to B-rank, and surprisingly, it was a smooth ride.

Now the ninja world had entered a critical period.

Any small spark could lead to a complete rampage.

At that time, no one would be able to stay out of it.

Konoha was especially so.

He originally thought this mission would be difficult, but it turned out to be even less so than the previous C-rank.

After safely delivering the target, Soratsuki and his team had a free tour before returning.

Taking missions often depended on luck.

Sometimes a B-rank mission was just a long walk, and sometimes a C-rank mission could suddenly turn into an S-rank.

Soratsuki was lucky; his first nine missions had been passable.

By the tenth mission, he was already accustomed to it.

Yamato also arrived on time and announced to his team members the potential dangers they might encounter next.

“Just now, I received a support combat mission.

A ninja squad from Kirigakure, Land of Water, has infiltrated our Land of Fire from the south.

Jōnin and Chūnin squads have already gone to stop them.

We will also go all out on this trip, responsible for the reception mission.”

Yamato spoke with extreme tension, making it sound more dangerous than it was. It was just a reception mission.

Moreover, Kirigakure had only sent one squad; what was so difficult about that?

“Are you ready? Confirm all your ninja tools, food, and medicine. This mission is about to begin.”

Yamato confirmed, as usual, whether his team members were fully prepared.

“No problem!”

Kohane was surprisingly the most enthusiastic one.

It seemed that the time spent together had made her accept her identity and her companions more.

“No problem, we will go all out.”

Sai said quite a lot in one breath, which pleased Yamato greatly. Then he looked at Soratsuki with a serious expression.

“You?”

“Yamato-sensei, could that squad just be an advance party, or perhaps a diversion?”

Soratsuki said casually; any normal person would have similar suspicions.

“We also have similar suspicions, but this abrupt way of sending out a squad is inherently a provocation, so we have more than ten reception squads for this mission alone.”

Yamato’s words were easy to understand.

Konoha did not believe that the enemy, after being exposed, would only infiltrate with one squad; they should have a more sinister and elaborate plan.

With more than ten reception squads, there should be even more responsible for reconnaissance and combat.

Konoha had sent out at least a hundred ninjas.

“Understood.”

Soratsuki didn’t make him headache, which made Yamato a little unaccustomed.

“Depart!”

The squad set off, gathering at the village entrance once again.

Kohane, holding a cat, first saw Inuzuka Kiba with his ninja dog Akamaru.

They had met a few days ago.

During this period of interaction, the prematurely graduated genin of the younger generation had basically gotten to know each other.

There was nothing particularly different.

It was just that they had matured a lot after executing missions.

Sai was relatively serious; in his opinion, after getting to know Soratsuki, life had become much more interesting.

“Soratsuki-nii!”

Naruto was standing behind Kakashi, waving at Soratsuki.

“Be careful.”

Soratsuki’s mouth shape was roughly like that.

Hmm?

Uchiha Sasuke’s gaze fell upon him. After his fight with Neji, many had already regarded Soratsuki as the strongest of the younger generation.

He was still a bit unconvinced in his heart.

After all, with Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi as brilliant examples, he didn’t want to fall behind.

“Hyuga Soratsuki?”

As Neji turned his head to look, Tenten and Rock Lee also noticed Neji’s emotions.

“That guy is safe and sound.”

Tenten also knew that Soratsuki’s reputation had grown recently.

Yamato, Kakashi, and Guy were all quite bold.

They had arranged B-rank missions for their teams early on as training.

Therefore, their growth rate was also extremely fast.

During missions, they would encounter various unexpected situations.

Basically, it was “first time’s a charm, second time’s a breeze.”

If they didn’t catch on after three or four times, they would basically die at the hands of the enemy.

“He’s gotten stronger.”

Neji and Soratsuki’s eyes met. Just by intuition, Neji could sense that Soratsuki was even stronger.

Actually.

This was just because Soratsuki deliberately released it. Others were constantly leveling up, temporarily aiming for Chūnin as a phased goal.

Soratsuki was like a shadow clone, not using his main account, but occasionally unlocking with a sub-account.

What others saw as the upper limit was merely Soratsuki’s lower limit.

“Soratsuki-kun.”

Hinata thought she would be much braver when she saw Soratsuki again, but unexpectedly, her heart still pounded for no reason.

“Nani? Hinata, really, it’s just Soratsuki? Why not just talk to him?”

Kiba was just complaining, but he felt Kohane’s gaze and immediately turned his head away, his face red, still stealing glances.

“You’re shy.”

Shino commented abruptly.

“No way, I just met my rival. Ninja cats are not as cute as ninja dogs.”

Kiba was all talk and no action.

“Shikamaru, how long do you think we’ll be out this time?”

Chōji had a desperate expression.

“Depends on the enemy’s objective.”

Shikamaru said casually. He didn’t want to say much to these kids.

Mainly because it was too tiring.

Yet, several of them were still his good friends.

“That handsome guy, we met him again.”

Ino was completely into looks.

She approved of Sai very much.

…

“Depart.”

Asuma Sarutobi gave the command, and dozens of figures set off simultaneously.

Including their squad leaders, there were already over fifty people.

At this moment, at the border of the Land of Fire.

Figures from Kirigakure swiftly darted past several corpses.

“Explosion confirmed!”

“No problem, did they die with the Konoha ninja?”

“Yes, it seems that as long as we’re fast enough, we can!”

Kirigakure said proudly.

Modifying humans into explosives was basically their proudest work, but it was also a conscience-destroying act.

“We just need to hold the front line.

These coastal small ninja villages and small countries must all be taken down.

Our mission is only one: to block Konoha at the cost of our lives.

By the time they react, the Land of Water will have the right to set foot on land.

Everything for Kirigakure, true to our oath to die!”

“Understood!”

All those behind him nodded simultaneously.

Among these people, only a very few had the right to live, and he was naturally one of them.

The others were experimental subjects cultivated in Kirigakure’s Anbu.

They were born as suicide bombers, prepared for such a desperate battle.

“When you encounter an enemy, you must use all your chakra, and then detonate yourself!”

“Understood!”

A mechanical, emotionless reply.

The war had already begun.

But the sacrificed ones were not even acknowledged; Kirigakure would later claim that these people never existed.

The coastal villages near the Land of Fire would also fall into Kirigakure’s hands.

At this moment, Hyuga Soratsuki and the others were rushing towards the battlefield.
