Chapter 96: Conversation between the two Naras, probing each other
Hearing Shisui's words, Uchiha Jin's face began to look worse and worse.
Good heavens!
This Shikaku Nara, he wouldn't be coming for him, would he?
Besides that, he couldn't think of any other possibility!
After all, the importance of the Mist battlefield was actually very average.
Konoha's main focus was still on the Rain Country.
Cloud and Rock were the strongest besides Konoha; Mist was actually only slightly stronger than Sand, and declaring war on Konoha now was just trying to pick up scraps.
Shikaku Nara was Konoha's strategist.
Why not stay honestly in the Rain Country and come to the Mist frontline instead?
Nothing major had happened here!
His eyes were obscure and flickering, and his brain began to work frantically.
But, it was useless!
There was too little information available to analyze.
However, forget it.
It was nothing more than soldiers coming to block and water coming to cover; just based on the little dirt he had on him, wanting to use him was still a bit lacking.
"Jin-kun, what are you thinking about?" Shisui asked in confusion.
Uchiha Jin smiled bitterly: "I'm just a regular ninja, joining your elite squad, honestly, the pressure is huge!"
Shisui rolled his eyes at this.
He hadn't seen Uchiha Jin's strength, so he didn't know.
But he understood very well that it definitely wasn't low!
Otherwise.
He couldn't have persisted until now!
"Alright, no need for that."
"You are smarter than me, I don't need to persuade you."
"It's very hard to hide for a long time, because no one is a fool, especially on the battlefield!"
Uchiha Jin nodded.
He naturally understood what Shisui said in his heart.
He just simply hoped that this time would come later.
But it seemed very difficult now!
Even without seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi, he knew that the old man must be eyeing him now.
After all, only a few of them survived from the previous cannon fodder army.
And, on the other side.
In a slightly larger tent, Nara Kazama walked in and spoke respectfully to the man before him.
"Clan Head!"
Shikaku Nara, who was sitting behind the desk looking at various battle reports, put down the report in his hand upon hearing this, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Oh, it's Kazama!"
"Sit down, there's no need to be formal between uncle and nephew."
"Haven't seen you for a few days, you have a bit more masculine spirit."
"It seems the battlefield is indeed very good for training people!"
Shikaku Nara smiled and stood up, letting Kazama sit at the guest table, and then poured him a cup of tea himself.
His tone was gentle.
Just like facing a real relative, not caring about the superior-subordinate relationship at all.
Nara Kazama was naturally moved.
After the two sat down, they started chatting.
Shikaku Nara first cared about his health, and then sighed about the closeness between the two families.
Subsequently.
Once everything was chatted about, Shikaku Nara talked about business.
"By the way."
"How do you feel about the teammates I arranged for you this time?"
"I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Nara Kazama's expression was calm.
Honestly.
He hadn't expected to see this "dear" clan uncle on the Mist battlefield.
Therefore, he really had no mental preparation for this.
But, it didn't matter.
He considered himself not a match for this clan uncle in terms of strategy, but wanting to extract information from him?
Heh, he thought too much.
He pondered for a moment before speaking slowly.
"Uchiha Jin, is it?"
"He is indeed a good teammate; his ability is enough for an elite squad like A-class."
"I really can't figure out what that guy is thinking."
"A strange Uchiha!"
While saying this, Nara Kazama began to perform.
He spoke of the Uchiha's strangeness and expressed his confusion.
It could even be said that he "leaked" a little bit about Uchiha Jin's strength.
But, in reality.
This leak was irrelevant.
Because since Shikaku Nara arranged for him to come, it proved that he had already noticed.
Saying it or not saying it made no difference.
Most importantly.
He used this dispensable situation to directly cover up his biggest secret.
That was that he himself had already allied with Uchiha Jin.
"So that's how it is!" Shikaku Nara's expression was calm, and then he smiled: "Uchiha Jin's strength sounds very strong?"
Shikaku Nara nodded slightly.
"Hmm, very strong!"
"Not to mention the basic Three Body Technique, he is also proficient in Fire Style, and his strongest is Taijutsu!"
"We were able to persist in the Mist base for three days, partly relying on our clan's Shadow Secret Technique, which can barely be used to detect the reality of the front."
"On the other hand, it was Uchiha Jin."
"We were able to escape from the Mist's encirclement repeatedly, all thanks to Uchiha Jin's Taijutsu ability."
"Many times he was able to outrun the pursuing Mist ninjas while carrying both of us!"
Hmm, very good.
More information leaked.
However, to this.
Nara Kazama had no choice.
After all, the fact that their squad could persist in the Mist base for so long was itself a bit unreasonable.
