This time, Yunyin traveled by sea, using ships for transportation.

Ninjas can walk on water, but to think that one could walk from the Land of Lightning's waters to the Land of Fire's waters on foot, a distance of tens of thousands of miles, is nothing short of a pipe dream.

After sailing at sea for several days, the constant consumption of chakra will eventually lead to chakra depletion, resulting in either drowning or death from exhaustion.

Therefore, even ninjas with extraordinary strength would still choose to travel by boat.

"What's the situation with Lord Killer Bee..."

The Cloud Village ninja in charge of this matter immediately reported it.

With ships, there will naturally be ports for replenishment.

This sea is not smooth as a mirror; it is dotted with many islands of varying sizes.

This time, they connected with an island along a sea route to resupply supplies.

These are all nestled in the white mist on the sea surface.

It's difficult for ordinary ninjas to detect, but it's not easy to fool the Hyuga clan's "Byakugan".

Under these circumstances, Yunyin also came up with a solution.

That is the bloodline limit "Red Eyes".

"I see."

The teak figure nodded.

A large number of troops gathered in the village.

If the Land of Fire can make a breakthrough and seize a piece of fertile land, it will be of immense benefit to the Hidden Cloud Village in the future.

……

The next day.

Kiyoshi was woken up.

He opened his eyes and saw Mikoto coming in to pack up the leftover lunchbox from last night.

"I'll take these back and wash them."

Mikoto tidied up all the lunchboxes and even wiped down Kiyoshi's simple table.

"Sister Mikoto will definitely be a wonderful wife and mother in the future."

Kiyoshi got out of bed.

Each ninja has his own tent, which contains some simple furniture.

"What are you talking about?"

Mikoto's lips curled slightly.

"Yes, it would be even better if she were my virtuous wife."

Kiyoshi stared intently at Mikoto.

The weather was still a bit chilly early in the morning, and Mikoto was shivering from the cold on the way.

But now, she felt her face getting hot.

"Alright, everyone's waiting for you."

Mikoto found a topic to talk about and then quickly went out.

When I left, I put down a new bento box. When I opened the lid, the aroma of food was rising from inside.

Next to the lid, there is a pair of chopsticks.

Qing Si picked it up and dealt with it in a few swift movements.

Actually, his body's need for food has decreased somewhat, and he can go without eating for several days.

However, there's no harm in eating it.

"Mikoto-sensei, you've come to see you so early, Kiyoshi."

After Kiyoshi finished eating and had only taken a few steps, Kurenai Yuhi suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"Mikoto helped me pack my lunchbox."

"A bento box?"

Seeing that Kurenai looked puzzled, Kiyoshi explained that Mikoto had found him the night before and given him a lunchbox.

"Is there such a thing?"

Kurenai's expression changed.

Why didn't she think of this?

Now look what happened, Ms. Misaka beat us to it!

"Red, Kiyoshi is the commander now, so it's best not to bother him too much."

Sarutobi Asuma also came over from a distance, a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

Now he has completely become a chain smoker, able to smoke in front of others with a nonchalant expression.

"Really? Kiyoshi."

Kurenai quickly asked Tsukasa.

"It's out of the way."

Qingsi shook his head.

"Did you hear that, Asma?"

With one hand on her hip, Yuhi Kurenai's clothes clung to her slender waist, making her look youthful and beautiful.

"Ahem, is that so?"

Sarutobi Asuma coughed twice tactically.

What he actually meant was that Kiyoshi was very busy and shouldn't be bothered.

But he's not busy, so you can bother him as much as you like.

Unfortunately, there's no opportunity to talk about these things now.

"If you need anything, you can give us orders."

Kakashi, holding a toothbrush, stared at Kiyoshi with dead fish eyes.

Now that Kiyoshi is his superior, it means Kakashi needs to obey Kiyoshi's orders.

Kakashi trusted Kiyoshi a lot, believing that if it was Kiyoshi's order, he would definitely be very thorough.

"What are you all doing gathered here? Go eat."

Seeing that Kiyoshi was surrounded by a group of people, Tsunade opened her lips and spoke.

"I've already eaten, Tsunade-sensei."

"Dry food?"

"It was Mikoto-nee who heated up my bento."

Kiyoshi said.

"You're pretty good, kid."

Tsunade patted Kiyoshi on the shoulder and then said:

"Then Kiyoshi, come with me first. The rest of you go have breakfast. We're going to gather intelligence today."

After Tsunade finished speaking, the people surrounding her had no choice but to disperse.

Before long, Tsunade led Kiyoshi to a tent.

There were already quite a few people inside the tent.

"Hello, I am Nara Shikashin, and I am Shikaku's cousin."

Nara Shika greeted Kiyoshi.

He had the traditional black pineapple-shaped haircut of the Nara clan, which looked somewhat strange.

"Ah."

Qingsi nodded slightly.

This time, he was one of the commanders, in charge of the reconnaissance unit.

The Yamanaka clan was responsible for transmitting intelligence, while the Nara clan was responsible for analyzing it.

"I am Hizashi, one of the people in charge of this operation."

Hyuga Hizashi Opening.

His twin brother, Hiashi Hyuga, was on the other side of the defense.

"Has the Hyuga clan gathered any intelligence?"

Qingsi asked.

"I'm sorry, not at the moment."

Hyuga Hizashi looked ashamed upon hearing this.

Despite possessing the strongest bloodline limit for detection, they still couldn't figure out which islands the Hidden Cloud Village had established bases on!

Even when they tried to pursue them, a fog would obscure their path.

This is not like the "Hidden Mist Technique" of the Hidden Mist, but something even more elusive.

Therefore, the battle here was very intense, and Konoha was in a passive defensive posture.

Every now and then, the Cloud Village would send elite troops to launch attacks, and then quickly leave afterward.

Konoha was exhausted and suffered heavy casualties.

"Daily variation, it's alright."

Kiyoshi remained calm and patted him on the shoulder.

He already had a pretty good idea of ​​the reason behind this.

In the ninja world, the Byakugan possesses the combined abilities of "X-ray vision" and "farsightedness," making it a game-changer for other ninjas when it comes to intelligence gathering.

Therefore, in order to avoid being spied on by outsiders, the Hyuga clan, which is only proficient in "Gentle Fist," was forced to create something like the "Caged Bird Seal."

Of course, this changed its meaning later on.

Or rather, any policy is initially intended to be good, but whether it can continue to be good in the future is something only the Sage of Six Paths, who has been observing the ninja world, knows.

"it is good."

Hyuga Hizashi said it almost as if possessed.

His white eyes suddenly narrowed.

Kiyoshi was much younger than him; he was just a junior.

Even if he is the current commander, I shouldn't be so respectful to him.

Hyuga Hizashi was completely puzzled.

Qing Si's words just now seemed to contain a hidden power that made people unconsciously believe him.

Seeing Hyuga Hizashi shake his head, Kiyoshi smiled slightly.

He didn't use any illusion.

Previously, the effects were from entries such as "The Art of Speaking (White)" and "The Weaver of Words (Green)".

After Mikoto left last night, he acquired a new entry.

【Eloquent Tongue (Blue)】 The effect is to increase Kiyoshi's persuasiveness by 40% on the original basis. The lower the status of the person is, the more they will be affected, even exceeding 40%.

The requirement is simple: fabricate lies and deceive others to the greatest extent possible, until a certain amount is reached.

Kiyoshi had already done a lot in this regard.

After all, he was also considered a spy for Kumogakure, constantly leaking information about Konoha.
