Chapter 56 Departure to the Land of Rivers

The next day, at the gate of Konoha.

A four-person team of Uchiha Che, Shirayun Hayama, Maruboshi Kosuke and Matt Dai assembled.

Che glanced around and prepared to go.

Baiyun Yeshan interrupted Che's thoughts at this time and said: "Che... Captain, are it just the four of us?"

Baiyun Yeshan glanced at a few people, especially Maruhoshi Kosuke and Matt Dai.

Obviously, Bai Yunhaishan did not know the true strength of these two people. He only heard that they were both ten thousand year genin in the village.

Little did they know that the weakest person in this team was actually Baiyun Yeshan himself.

Baiyun Yeshan couldn't speak directly out of politeness, but Maruhoshi Kosuke and Matt Dai also noticed what he meant.

Maruboshi Kosuke smiled and patted Baiyun Hayama on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I won't hold you back. Besides, I cook very delicious food. I can cook for you during the mission."

Shirayun Hayama is a talented person with a dark gray ponytail. This reminds Maruboshi Kosuke of his young self, so he becomes inexplicably kind and kind to Shirayun Hayama.

Matt Dai gave a thumbs up and said: "Although I am just a genin, I will try my best. This is the way of my youth!"

Che then spoke again: "You and Kosuke genin are both elites assigned by Hokage-sama, and Mattai genin is an elite invited by me. There is no problem with the elite team composed of the four of us."

Although Baiyun Hayama always felt that Maruboshi Kosuke and Matt Dai were not suitable for this S-class secret mission, he finally gave up because of Che, the number one genius ninja in Konoha.

It's just that the pressure on this mission has increased. After all, he has two genin to drag him down.

Seeing that Baiyun Yeshan no longer objected, Che took the three of them and officially set off.

Along the way, we ate and slept in the open air, under the stars and the moon. When we were tired, we rested on the trees. When we were sleepy, we slept on the trees. When we were hungry, we ate military grain pills. When we were thirsty, we replenished water in the rivers along the way.

Time is money, not to mention that this mission is special, and time is life.

The deployment of ninjas in Sand Hidden Village will change every day. The sooner Che and the others arrive, the more detailed information they will get.

So it took less than two days, and on the second night, Che and the others arrived in the Kingdom of Sichuan.

The country of Sichuan, as its name suggests, has many mountains and river valleys.

Che and his party traveled through thousands of mountains and rivers in the Kingdom of Sichuan before arriving at Tanigakure, a ninja village in the Kingdom of Sichuan.

Tanigakure Village is pitifully small compared to Konoha.

Konoha is said to be a village, but it has actually grown into a big city.

But Guyin Village is a village worthy of its name.

The population of the entire village, including civilians, does not exceed 5,000, and the number of ninjas is less than 200, and most of them are genin.

And only the villager Hiroshi Hasegawa's strength can reach the level of the average Jounin in Konoha.

Hasegawa Hiroshi personally received Che and his party from Konoha.

"I've admired you for a long time, you are Konoha's number one genius, Cheru Uchiha, right? You come from a famous family and are gifted. When I see you today, you are indeed like this. You are truly a talented person."

Hiroyuki Hasegawa, the villager of Tanigakure Village who is nearly forty years old, is trying to please an eleven-year-old Konoha chuunin Uchiha Che with a smile on his face.

This may be the tragedy of small countries and small villages, and it can also be said to be the way to survive.

Che politely returned the favor and gave Hiroshi Hasegawa face, and then said: "Village Chief Hasegawa is overrated. It is just a false name that the villagers spread through rumors. By the way, can the information on this mission be more detailed?"

Hiroshi Hasegawa said with a solemn expression: "Those two traitorous ninjas are both elite chuunin and are considered to be quite capable in our village."

"They coveted my position as village chief, and they joined forces to start a rebellion, but I suppressed it."

"Their rebellion was crushed, but they fled."

"There are many mountains and rivers in the country of Sichuan, and no one knows which mountain they fled into to hide."

"I sent many teams of ninjas from my village to search for him but all failed, and it is not convenient for me to leave the village."

"So I can only entrust the ninjas of your village to help."

Che nodded and said: "I'm afraid this task will take some time. During this time, I may have to stay in Guyin Village temporarily."

"Don't worry, the accommodation prepared for you has been packed and you can move in now."

Hasegawa Hiroshi smiled and motioned to the maid next to him to take Che and others to their residence.

Che stood up and asked casually: "Hasegawa Village Chief, has there been any unusual movement in Sunagakure Village in the Kingdom of Sawa recently?"

Hasegawa Hiroshi's smile became stiff, and then he replied with a half-smile: "I promise that Tanigakure Village will remain neutral between Sunagakure and Konoha. I hope your village understands."

Che nodded and left as if nothing had happened.

Hasegawa Hiroshi took a deep breath. He knew full well about Sunagakure's recent movements and was just pretending to be stupid.

Because the weak Tanigakure Village cannot afford to offend either party between Sunagakure and Konoha.

Sunagakure Village is not strong among the five great ninja villages, but it can easily crush the small Tanigakure Village.

Che was led to the residence by the maid.

A single-family villa with its own backyard.

The maid handed Che the key to the residence and the information needed for the mission and left.

Che turned around and said, "It's getting late today. We'll leave tomorrow and stay here tonight."

Baiyun Yeshan and Matt Dai both nodded.

Maruboshi Kosuke looked at a few people with a smile and said, "Then you can try my cooking skills tonight. I'll go buy the ingredients."

Che said expectantly: "We are waiting."

Maruboshi Kosuke left to buy food.

Che then found a detailed map of the Kingdom of Rivers in the intelligence, spread it on the ground and said: "Let's discuss the plan at this time."

"I plan to start from the Hidden Valley Village and head west. The destination is Akaishi Mountain, which is the closest mountain to the Kingdom of Wind. If the Hidden Sand Village makes any move, it will definitely be arranged there first."

"We will search all the way west, pretending to be looking for traitors, so that even if we encounter the Sand Ninja, we can have a reason to retreat unscathed."

Baiyun Yeshan looked at Che with admiration. He trusted this young but very calm and reliable ninja very much.

Might Dai obeyed Che's plan unconditionally. After all, it was Che who brought him to this mission.

After a while, Maruboshi Kosuke came back with two large bags and a large iron pot on his back.

"Today's dinner is Sukiyaki."

Maruboshi Kosuke mentioned today's ingredients and said.

"Sukiyaki? Is it something similar to hoe-grilled?" Che asked a little blankly.

"Sukiyaki? That's what people ate many years ago." Maruboshi Gujie laughed dumbly and thought Che was joking.

In fact, Che had never eaten Sukiyaki in his previous life.

Maruboshi Gujie set up an iron pot in the kitchen.

Slice the beef into thin slices, roast it slightly, add soy sauce and sugar to the seasoning and put it into the pot to cook with vegetables, mushrooms, tofu and other ingredients.

When the water in the iron pot was about to dry up, Maruboshi Gujie added a proper amount of sweet cooking wine to the pot to enhance the flavor.

Gujie then brought the cooked pot of Sukiyaki to the table and beat a fresh egg in each person's bowl as a dipping sauce.

The aroma was so fragrant that several people couldn't help but pick up the bowls and chopsticks and tasted it immediately.

After the boiling beef was coated with egg liquid, it cooled down enough to be eaten directly. The smooth and sweet taste filled the mouth and nose, which was the best taste in the world.

Che, Baiyun Yeshan and Might Dai all gave thumbs up, which made Maruboshi Gujie smile with satisfaction.
