Chapter 57

~6 min read 1,015 words

Inside the tent, it was extremely quiet.

Everyone else was already asleep, only Uchiha Jin lay on the bed, looking at the night outside through the small window, dazed.

He sighed with emotion.

Cannon fodder simply has no human rights!

Think about the training plan for Konoha's Class A; not only do they have Jonin as guides, but they also have to experience grabbing bells, doing D-rank missions in the village, etc., and only when the bonds are cultivated enough will they truly practice with C-rank missions.

And, Class B?

Nothing at all!

A cannon-fodder Chunin as a guide; grabbing bells or whatever is something you don't even need to think about!

And if you can't grab the bell, they'll send you back to study?

Keep dreaming!

A cannon-fodder squad like theirs is just sent here to die.

There are no bonds between each other, and there's no talk of trust; instead, there's all kinds of scheming and mutual deception!

Thinking about all the trouble he had encountered since leaving the village, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

It's truly a headache!

For a cannon-fodder squad like this, wanting to survive until the end of the Great War is extremely difficult in itself.

And now?

They sent Ishikawa Shu, this piece of dog shit, back; Uchiha Jin felt a severe headache just thinking about it.

The next day, early morning.

After everyone got up and had a simple breakfast, Kudo Shin spoke directly.

"Our mission this time is to go to the twenty-seventh guard point on the left side of the Land of Whirlpools."

"On this trip, we need to closely monitor the situation on the sea, and once we discover the Mist, we will immediately launch a signal."

"Then find a way to delay the enemy and buy time for the base camp."

"Let's go!"

After briefly introducing the mission, Kudo Shin headed out of the front-line camp first.

Uchiha Jin and Nara Kazama looked at each other, and naturally, without any nonsense, they followed behind Kudo Shin.

Only, Ishikawa Shu.

He could naturally feel that he was incompatible with this squad.

But being proud, he didn't look for the reason in himself; instead, he directly complained about his teammates.

He thought it was this bunch of guys dragging him down; otherwise, when he encountered the Mist last time, he would have already been able to make quite a few contributions, and maybe he could have exchanged for ninjutsu in the front-line camp a few days ago.

And, now?

Not only did he get nothing, but he was also investigated by the Anbu.

All of this was the fault of this bunch of guys!

Looking at the three of them with venomous eyes, he snorted coldly and followed them up.

The four of them moved extremely fast.

After all, they were ninjas, so naturally, they didn't walk, but moved quickly by using the big trees in the forest.

About half a day later.

Everyone arrived at the mission location; there was only a crude wooden house built on the branch of a thick tree.

Staying in this wooden house, one could see the situation on the sea through layers of leaves, without exposing one's position.

"Alright, be on alert."

"We need to divide into two groups, day and night; I'll be in a group with Uchiha Jin, and Nara Kazama and Ishikawa Shu will be in a group."

"Now I and Uchiha Jin will rest, and you two are responsible for watching."

"When night comes, we'll come to change shifts."

Regarding Kudo Shin's arrangement, everyone naturally had no objections.

Even Ishikawa Shu just nodded coldly.

Obviously.

Having suffered a loss once, at least he didn't dare to refuse openly.

Uchiha Jin saw this and naturally didn't talk nonsense anymore.

He just gave Nara Kazama a look, and after seeing him nod slightly, he felt relieved to go back to the wooden house to rest.

Yes.

He really didn't trust Ishikawa Shu.

The cold, venomous look this guy gave everyone last night was still flashing in his mind.

Naturally, he had to be more on guard against this bastard.

Nara Kazama was naturally not stupid.

Even if Uchiha Jin didn't speak, he understood everything in a second.

Days passed one by one, and in the blink of an eye, six days had passed.

However.

Everything was calm.

They hadn't detected the shadow of the Mist, which made them a bit puzzled.

If they hadn't encountered the Mist's sneak attack before, they would have thought the village's intelligence was wrong.

Is the Mist coming or not?

Especially, Uchiha Jin.

He faintly felt that something was a bit wrong in his heart!

Unlike others, he knew the actual situation.

Shisui had specifically told him that the Mist had declared war on Konoha.

And the memories of his past life also told him that the Mist had indeed participated in the Third War, and Might Dai's Eight Gates of Death became famous at this time.

Therefore.

The calmer it was, the more uneasy he felt.

During the handover.

When it was time for the handover again, he specifically sought out Nara Kazama.

"Be careful."

"I feel something is wrong; there will definitely be a hard battle next."

"Be cautious, don't die!"

Nara Kazama was stunned for a moment.

But he reacted quickly and nodded solemnly to show he understood.

Obviously.

He wasn't stupid.

Since Uchiha Jin said so, he must have detected something.

The two had been in contact for quite a while, and he was willing to believe Uchiha Jin's judgment.

This day, late at night.

Just as Uchiha Jin was fast asleep, Nara Kazama woke him and Kudo Shin up.

"There's a situation."

"There's fog in the forest; I suspect it's the Hidden Mist Jutsu."

After Kudo Shin and Uchiha Jin got up, they hurriedly looked out of the wooden house.

Indeed.

Just as Nara Kazama said, the entire forest was occupied by thick fog; Uchiha Jin frowned slightly at this.

They didn't see any movement on the sea. ===== CHAPTER 58 =====
