Chapter 103: Is The Aburame Clan This Messy Too?
After moving away from Kyoto in the Land of Rain, Danzo issued orders to the Kiiroinu Captain in the heavy rain, then left with the Root Ninja.
The Kiiroinu Captain came before the three Squad Leaders and assigned the missions.
“Hidden Rain Village unexpectedly participated in the war, so the village made two preparations.
First, on the front battlefield, Orochimaru, Tsunade, and Jiraiya led troops into the Land of Rain, seeking to annihilate the main force of Hidden Rain Village.
Second, try negotiation.
Hanzo proposed conditions: as long as we drive away the Sand Ninja, he is willing to negotiate.
Whether the front battlefield or negotiation, both are indispensable for war victory.
According to the intelligence provided by Hanzo, our battalion will head to the Jishui River in the southern part of the Land of Rain to investigate the Sand Ninja’s purpose and drive away the Sand Ninja within the Land of Rain.
The war with Hidden Stone Village is the core war of the Second Ninja War. To quickly pincer the Land of Earth from north and south with Hidden Cloud Village, we must resolve the Rain Ninja as soon as possible.
The three squads will investigate the three sections of the Jishui River respectively, capture Sand Ninja prisoners and interrogate them to find out what conspiracy the Sand Ninja have near the Jishui River.”
Yoru was assigned to investigate the middle section of the Jishui River.
The Kiiroinu Captain now defaults that the Fox Squad has the strongest strength, so the Fox Squad’s mission is the most difficult when assigning tasks.
Recently performed a bit too well, still need to lay low.
Just like in his previous life at the company, more work doesn’t bring more rewards, more work only brings more work, endless work.
If you say you can do double-sided copying, all the department’s copying is yours to do; besides quitting, there’s no way to escape this job.
After receiving the mission, the three squads dispersed in three directions.
After walking half a day, Aries suddenly said: “Squad Leader! There are a large number of ninja ahead!”
Yoru quickly led the squad to transfer to a higher place with better visibility.
Through the telescope, it was all rain and fog, unable to see the distance clearly.
Somewhat missing the previous Aries; if it was him, he could have seen clearly early who the distant ninja were.
“Squad Leader! My insects discovered Aburame Clan insects in the distance! It’s Leaf Ninja!”
“Oh? That’s great. It might be the main force commanded by Lord Orochimaru Jonin.”
Yoru told Aries to contact the main force and inform them that they are Anbu to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.
Soon, four ninja appeared from the opposite side.
The leader was a female ninja wearing a mask, with a high collar, carrying an insect jar, an Aburame Clan ninja.
After the Aburame Ninja came close, she looked around and stared at the ninja wearing Aries’ mask: “Is that you?”
Yoru was stunned; was this an Anbu Ninja who identified a clan member through insects?
Yoru stood in front of Aries and said: “Aburame Ninja, pay attention to Konoha’s confidentiality code.”
Even if you recognize a clan member, how can you say it out loud?
“Sorry, Captain!” this female ninja said:
“I am Aburame Chima. I came to deliver Deputy Commander Lord Orochimaru’s orders.
Lord Orochimaru said that if they are Anbu Ninja, please have the Anbu Squad Leader come see Lord Orochimaru.”
Yoru was somewhat puzzled, not knowing why Orochimaru wanted to see Anbu.
Orochimaru is Root’s A-rank, with Anbu Battalion Captain authority, so Yoru had to obey.
Along the way, Aburame Chima kept turning her head to look at Aries.
Even though the Anbu Squad Leader had scolded her, she still couldn’t help wanting to look at Aries a few more times.
Aries hid at the end of the squad.
Yoru also came to the rear of the squad and asked: “Aries, before you entered Anbu, did you have some unresolved trouble? What is Aburame Chima to you?”
Aries felt some panic in his heart.
Anbu must ensure members are absolutely reliable; the Squad Leader will judge based on his answer whether he qualifies to stay in Anbu.
Aries said:
“Squad Leader, the Aburame Clan raises insects inside their bodies, so it’s hard for us to marry outside the Aburame Clan.
Aburame Chima was assigned to me by the family as my fiancée, but I really can’t develop any emotion for her.
Aburame Chima is a good girl. To make her forget me, I chose to disappear and enter Anbu.”
Yoru said in the tone of someone who had been through it: “Entering Anbu can indeed hide for a while. Women, familiarity breeds affection; the key is how long. Why trouble yourself?”
Aries didn’t understand what the Captain was saying and just shook his head:
“Captain, you don’t understand. I can’t develop any emotion for Chima.
More importantly, the insects in my body reject the insects in Chima’s body.”
“Wait!” Yoru seemed to discover another Konoha ninja clan secret: “You mean, when you and Chima are together, the insects in both of you also need to be compatible?”
“Yes.” Aries said:
“On the wedding night, just like exchanging bodily fluids, our insects also need to be exchanged and mate.
My insects despise her insects; we absolutely can’t be together.
Aburame Clan couples will have children; the insects bred by the couple’s insects become the children’s parasitic insects.”
Yoru inhaled a cold breath, and a picture appeared before his eyes.
When Aburame Clan couples have their moment of spring, on the ground, on the walls, on the rooftop, on the windows, there might be countless densely packed insects also having their moment of spring.
The Ino-Shika-Cho Clan is quite chaotic; Yoru already had some understanding.
Unexpectedly, the gourd-like Aburame Clan is also so chaotic, chaotically to the point of scalp tingling.
Yoru said:
“That really is physiological disgust, not just you, but your insects physiologically despise them too.
I’ll go warn her once more; don’t let her come looking for you or inquire about your news.”
Yoru returned to the front of the team and found Aburame Chima, saying: “Chima Squad Leader, please don’t look back anymore. There is no one you know in my squad, understand?”
Chima’s emotions were low, her mouth turned down, almost crying: “I understand, Captain.”
Following Aburame Chima into the Konoha Unit.
The Leaf Ninja leaned exhaustedly against trees to rest.
In the heavy rain, this couldn’t be called resting, at most relaxing their tense muscles.
About 400-plus ninja were seeking the opportunity for a decisive battle with the Rain Ninja in the heavy rain.
The Land of Rain and the Land of Wind could be said to be the two places Leaf Ninja hated the most. The environment here is terrible; coming once means losing at least ten pounds.
Coming to the front of the troops, Yoru saw the front line commander for this battle, Orochimaru.
Beside Orochimaru were Tsunade and Jiraiya.
Jiraiya was chattering endlessly in Tsunade’s ear, completely not noticing Yoru who had arrived.
After Yoru came close, he heard Jiraiya comforting Tsunade, persuading her not to be depressed over Kato Dan’s death.
Tsunade disgustedly turned her body away from Jiraiya, her expression and body both full of disgust.
Orochimaru asked:
“Fox, if I remember correctly, you are from the Kiiroinu Battalion. Is your mission related to the Land of Rain war? If so, report the mission content to me, so I can formulate a plan.”
Yoru turned his head and looked at the few people beside Orochimaru: Jiraiya, Tsunade, and two Strategists. This wasn’t according to rules.
Seeing the impatient expression appear on Orochimaru’s face, Yoru quickly withdrew his scanning gaze.
Given Orochimaru’s favored status in the Third Hokage’s heart and his importance in Danzo Advisor’s heart, Orochimaru is the rule.
Yoru told Orochimaru about encountering Hanzo outside Kyoto in the Land of Rain, especially the conditions Hanzo proposed.
After hearing it, Orochimaru said:
“Danzo Advisor actually agreed to Hanzo’s conditions. I will defeat Hanzo on the front battlefield; there’s no need to make any compromises with him.
Fox, you can go.”
Yoru thought to himself: I hope when you get brutally beaten by Hanzo, you can still be this tough.
