Country of Grass.

As a major transportation route between the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Earth, Konoha and Iwaii have already started war, it will naturally inevitably become the battlefield on the front line.

This is the sadness that small countries share.

However, the leader of Grass Country still has some ideas.

He did not attempt to develop Kurohito into the "sixth largest" like Hanzo of Yuyin Village. Instead, he wanted to get their promise to never invade by pleasing the five majors.

The way he thought of was to help the five major ninja villages to detain and guard some prisoners with extremely high risk and controversial internationally.

Let's give a simple example.

For example, a ninja from the Kingdom of Fire committed a crime in the Kingdom of Thunder. The Kingdom of Thunder wanted to imprison him. Of course, the Kingdom of Fire would not agree. Who knows whether you want to be detained or dissected?

There have always been many secrets in the mind of ninjas.

But the Kingdom of Fire wants to extradite him back to the country and punish him, and the Kingdom of Thunder cannot believe it. Who knows if you really punish him?

But it is not realistic to let Fire and Thunder fight for such a person.

As a result, a neutral third-party prison emerged.

If you lock people here, you don’t have to worry about being dissected or not being punished. Everyone is happy.

The reason why Cao Zhiguo chose this path is also its own advantages.

Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. Although Caoxiu Village is weak, it also has its own unique secret ninjutsu - [Fire Escape·Tianzhu].

This is a special ninjutsu based on the combustion characteristics of fire escape. The flames it generates are fueled by chakra in the human body, but they are not as difficult to control as Amaterasu Dark Fire.

People who have been exerted this kind of ninjutsu will be injected with a flame seed into their bodies. As long as they extract chakra, they will suffer the pain of burning their bodies with flames. The more they extract, the more they burn.

Moreover, once this flame seed is too far away from the caster, it will burn spontaneously until the entire recipient is burned to death.

Combining torture, sealing and siege is a necessary skill for the warden.

In this way, Caoyin Village can be said to have resolved the conflicts between the countries in the ninja world again and again with great contributions.

But even though they had already achieved this, when the wave of the ninja war came, when Iwahidun Village and Konoha Village were determined to start a war in their country, they could only watch and dare not resist at all.

Under this wave of war that swept across the entire ninja world, even if it was just one of the small waves, it was an unbearable weight for the people of the Grass Country.

Although Iwagin and Konoha's ninjas do not specifically kill civilians in the Grass Country, they often do not intentionally avoid them.

For them, these people are just like the flowers, plants, soil and rocks on the roadside. If they are affected, they will be affected. They are considered unlucky.

Therefore, in this case, the people of Caozhi Kingdom were in great trouble.

The ninjas in the Hidden Village of Grassland were not much better either.

As local snakes, they had no intention or ability to maintain their own public security when the two powerful dragons Iwaii and Konoha crossed the river. The only thing they could do was to shrink their power, try to reduce their sense of existence, and pretend that they did not exist.

It’s a pity that they want to be turtles in their hearts, but reality does not allow it.

Ninjas are not farmers. As long as they stay on one acre of three-point land in their homes, they will be self-sufficient, and at least they will not starve to death.

They are mercenaries.

If you don’t take on the task, you will have no money and you will not be able to survive without money.

As for the savings in the past...

Perhaps ninjas at the upper ninja level can support them for a longer period of time. After all, they have done more tasks, earn more money, and their family background is a little richer.

But low-level ninjas are bad.

Even if their meager savings can temporarily support one week or one month, what should we do if we just live in vain?

And that battle in the ninja world can be completed in one month?

From at least one or two years to three or five years, this is the norm of war.

Therefore, despite being trembling and unwilling to do so, in order to survive, a large number of grass nerds still had to run around.

However, these overlords who used to be scattered by grasslands can only be like grasshoppers, and can only hide from Konoha and Iwai's people. If you have a little trouble, you will be able to escape.

Even so, the casualties of the grass ninjas over the past period of time have almost exceeded that of the past whole year.

The hospital in Caoyin Village is crowded with many injuries, and many people who are not inactive are directly turned away.

Long Lan is one of them.

As a Kushin Village, he unfortunately entered a battlefield between Konoha and Iwa Ninja during his mission...the ruins.

As a result, one of the mechanisms was accidentally triggered, and several sudden appearances of Shurikens made long bloody mouths, and they almost died.

Fortunately, it was just a abandoned battlefield. The ninjas on both sides had already left, leaving only the only mechanism that had not been dismantled.

But after he struggled to come back, he was just thrown by a roll of gauze by a medical ninja, which made him entangle himself.

Not to mention using medical ninjutsu to treat injuries, even the smell of herbs cannot be smelled.

In this way, because of his previous mission failure, he had to continue the mission with the new team.

As for the original teammates?

Of course, it has been killed by the mechanism trap!

...

...

Caorong Village.

Long Lan and the other two who had gone by and finally arrived at the target location of the trip.

The client of the task was the village chief here, an old man in his fifties and sixties, with a slightly hunchbacked figure.

Long Lan and his team's mission is to escort the village chief's family to Caoyin Village safely.

This is also the type of task that Kushin's ninjas have performed the most frequently during this period.

Because on the front line where Iwai and Konoha are intertwined, there are small villages in countless grasslands, from time to time, huge rocks, flames, and water flows inexplicably come.

For ninjas, these can only be regarded as stray bullet attacks. When they fall on these civilians, their power is no less than [Sky-blocking Star], [Rare Fire Extinguishing], and [Big Explosion Water Surfing], etc.

Anyway, it's a word that's dead.

Therefore, many people want to go to Caoxiu Village to avoid it for a while.

Of course, just like this village chief, only a few people can afford to pay for ninja escorts. Most people can only go on their own, and their ending will most likely not be very good.

After all, even ordinary bandits, for them, the threat is no different from that of ninjas.

Long Lan saw that there were six people in the village chief’s family.

In addition to the old village chief, there is also a middle-aged couple, probably his son and daughter-in-law, who is holding a small doll in his arms. In addition, there is also a pair of young men and women.

The man looks a bit similar to the old village chief. Maybe he is his youngest son, but the woman's appearance is quite beautiful, especially her bright red hair, which is enough to make people remember it.

After briefly introducing each other, the group of nine people set off.

Long Lan and the other two were all Zhongnin from Caoyin Village, and they were temporarily reorganized because the original team was completely destroyed, so they were not very suitable for cooperation in all aspects.

For example, the three of them lack the ability to detect.

And walking in the war-torn grass country is the most important thing to avoid danger.

If you accidentally enter the battlefield between Iwaki and Konoha Ninja, even if the leader of Kushin Village comes in person, you may not be able to escape unscathed.

So, unexpectedly, nine people stepped into the battlefield again.

What's even more unfortunate is that no one was empty on the battlefield this time.

"Tiu Escape·Tiu Lili River!"

A loud shout sounded from afar, and the land under the feet of several people trembled slightly, and a "rumbling" noise came from the distance.

I saw a mudslide in front of the left, carrying a large amount of soil, wood and gravel, rushing straight towards the direction of the few of them with the galloping horses!

Wherever you pass, the trees are broken, the earth is surging, and it is irresistible.

"Oops!"

Long Lan and the other two were shocked.

Then he hurriedly led the village chief and others to avoid it. Long Lan quickly looked and grabbed the thin and thin village chief with a shabby hand. With the other hand, he carried the young woman with red hair and ran to flee in the opposite direction of the mudslide.

Fortunately, they just stepped into it and were on the edge of the earth-flowing river, so they retreated without much impact.

But even so, perhaps because Long Lan spent more of her thoughts on taking care of the red-haired woman when she was running away, so the foot of the old village chief who was clamped under his armpit was broken.

And because they ran too flustered at that time, the three of them also lost contact with the other six people.

However, Long Lan was not panicked because he could see clearly that the money was held in the hands of the old village chief, so this time he could say that he had grasped the money with one hand and the dream with the other.

Due to the injury of the old village chief, the three of them came to a cave to rest temporarily and prepare to check him out.

After some examination, they found that the old village chief's foot was quite injured.

It should be that when I was running away, I accidentally hit the sharp rock on the ground, and a bloody hole was cut on my ankle, and even my tendons were damaged.

In a nutshell, it is impossible to walk independently.
