Chapter 115: What is a punching bag?
At the end of Konoha's forty-sixth year, Konoha Village and Kirigakure Village reached a preliminary armistice agreement, with both sides withdrawing half of their troops to show their sincerity.
Although everyone on the Konoha side feels that the war will be over soon, after all, the envoy team from Kirigakure Village has not yet arrived at Konoha Village, and the two sides have not formally signed a peace agreement. Therefore, the two sides still maintain some control in the eastern part of the Land of Fire. military strength.
For the Kirigakure Village, withdrawing from the Fire Country is an important bargaining chip in their negotiations with the Leaf Village. Therefore, it is impossible for the Kirigakure side to withdraw everyone to the Water Country. To withdraw from the Water Country, we can only wait until the peace agreement is officially signed.
The Konoha side naturally knew what the Kirigakure village was planning. Although they felt that the war would never start again, they still left a considerable number of people behind to guard against the Kirigakure ninjas on the opposite side. As long as the war is not over, anything can happen.
In the specific arrangements for Konoha's withdrawal of troops and return to Konoha, the initial five thousand Konoha ninjas will be divided into three batches to return to Konoha. As for the remaining Konoha ninjas, they have to wait until the Kirigakure ninjas on the opposite side withdraw from the Country of Fire before returning to Konoha.
Among the first three batches of ninjas, many were ninja school students who graduated early and joined the war due to the urgency of the war. Now that the war is coming to an end, they naturally become the first people to return to the village. According to Minato, the future of the village should not appear on the battlefield. Kaiban and Kakashiban also belong to the third batch of ninjas who returned to Konoha Village.
After learning that they could return to Konoha early, everyone smiled. The war has been going on for so long, and now it is finally over and we can return to the village.
The Yamanaka Kai Squadron was originally the third batch of candidates to return to Konoha, but because of the uneasiness in his heart, Ryūha finally refused the arrangement to return to Konoha in advance and planned to stay in the frontline camp that maintained confrontation with Kirigakure Village.
The reason for Liuyu's refusal was that it would be difficult to get out after returning to the village, so he wanted to stay outside for a while now. The war was almost over anyway, and there was no danger.
When Ryūha applied to stay in the frontline camp, Asuma and Kurenai, who learned the news, also applied to stay for the same reason.
Yamanaka Hai thought about it and felt that it was no big deal, so he agreed to Riuyu and the others' request to stay in the camp.
Asuma and the three of them have now been promoted to chuunin. After this war is over, if there are no special circumstances in the future, they will basically not form a team to perform missions together.
Moreover, she will help Liuyu submit a jounin application this time. If Liuyu becomes a jounin, she will lead the team to carry out missions independently in the future. Now while there is still time, it would be a good choice for the three of them to spend more time together.
The next morning, the sky was bright and the morning fog had not yet dispersed, but the Konoha camp was already bustling with activity. Today, the third group of Konoha ninjas will set off back to Konoha. Under the temptation of returning to the village victoriously, everyone seemed very motivated.
"Lord Orochimaru, the children are in your hands!"
In front of the camp gate, Namikaze Minato said to Orochimaru at the front of the team with a sincere face. Although Minato Namikaze, as the Fourth Hokage, is now a step ahead of Orochimaru in terms of status, he still maintains due respect for his uncle.
"Um!"
Orochimaru hummed slightly, indicating that he understood. Although he was defeated in the competition for the Fourth Hokage, Orochimaru had to admit that Namikaze Minato was indeed a qualified Hokage.
"Set off!"
Looking at the Konoha ninjas in front of him, Orochimaru shouted hoarsely, and the third batch of Konoha ninjas finally returned.
"Is it really over?"
Looking at Lin and Kakashi walking away in the team, Liu Yu couldn't help but ask herself again. If Lin successfully returns to Konoha with the team this time, it will be difficult for Uchiha Madara to find an opportunity to plunge Obito into darkness.
During these few days, all Liu Yu could do was wait. The two sides of Konoha Village and Kirigakure Village have reached a preliminary armistice agreement, so apart from necessary security tasks, there are not many tasks to be performed.
Due to the sharp reduction in the number of tasks, many Konoha ninjas in the camp were idle. After all, this is not a village, and there are not many entertainment venues, so many people go to the training ground to practice.
The three of them, Liu Yu, who had nothing to do, often went to the training ground these days. As a result, the temporary training ground, which was originally empty in the past two days, became a lot more lively.
On the training ground, two figures collided at a high speed, and then dispersed at a high speed, leaving behind a series of afterimages. It was Asuma and Ryūha who were sparring.
"good"
"The flaw is exposed, now, quickly"
"That's it"
"pretty"
Outside the court, there were loud shouts from time to time. Unconsciously, a large number of people gathered outside the stadium to watch the game. Since there is nothing to do now, watching the two ninjas sparring has become a good choice to pass the time.
Asuma and Liuyu on the field didn't pay attention to the cheers and instructions from around them from time to time. In their eyes, they only saw each other's existence.
Seeing the seriousness on Ruyu's face, Asuma looked like she was about to cry. I don’t know why, but during the past few days when he was sparring with Liu Yu, Liu Yu’s attacks were particularly harsh, causing him so much pain that he couldn’t sleep well every night.
Sometimes he felt that he would lose if his flaws were revealed, but Liuyu always ignored his flaws and insisted on continuing to fight with him. Asuma finally figured out that Ryuyu just wanted to beat herself up to vent her anger.
"I haven't messed with her these past few days, have I?"
Looking at Liuyu standing opposite, Asuma thought carefully about what he had done in the past few days, and couldn't help but ask himself doubtfully. He really hasn't done anything bad to offend Liu Yu these days.
Asuma's guess was correct. During the past few days of sparring, Ryuyu had indeed deliberately ignored the flaws he had revealed and deliberately entered into a tug-of-war, hoping to vent his anger on him.
Because he was worried about the possible conspiracy of Kirigakure or Uchiha Madara, Liuyu always seemed particularly irritable these days, but he still had to pretend to be normal in front of everyone, which made Liuyu very frustrated. angry.
Therefore, on the training ground, when sparring with Asuma, Ryūha always used ruthless blows to express his depression. In these sparring sessions, Ryūha rarely used ninjutsu, and always relied on his physical advantage to challenge Asuma.
During the past few days of sparring, Asuma was not the only one to fight against Riuha. But Hong was such a cute little girl, and Liu Yu couldn't bear to be cruel. As for the others, Liu Yu was not very familiar with them. Therefore, the burden of being beaten fell on Asma's shoulders.
If Matt was still here and proposed a "youth showdown" to Liuyu, Liuyu would never refuse. Akai is much more capable than Asman.
