Roll back from Naruto

Chapter 248: Fire Nation, encountering Orochimaru

Aragaki is about to go to the Land of Rain. In fact, only Uzumaki Yuta and Mizuhara Chie know that he plans to leave.

After explaining and arranging all the matters, he left his shadow clone behind, and then quietly left the World Tree through the Flying Thunder God technique.

The Kingdom of Rain is located in the southwest of the Kingdom of Fields. If you look at it from a straight-line distance, you only need to cross part of the northern territory of the Kingdom of Fire to reach it smoothly.

So this time he chose the route via the Country of Fire.

And in order to hide his identity and avoid exposing his whereabouts as much as possible, he also used the transformation technique to completely change his clothes.

But the only thing that remains unchanged is the image of a down-and-out vagabond with a sword. Perhaps this is the freedom and romance in the heart of a man.

...

To the north of the Country of Fire, on the border with the Country of Grass.

If it was two years ago, before the Nanao Incident happened, the relationship between the Country of Grass and the Country of Fire was still in a normal diplomatic state.

However, also because in the mission sent by Konoha to Taki Country to assist Taki Ninja, the Country of Grass cooperated with the Country of Rain to set up an ambush attack, which completely exposed its wolfish ambitions.

So it is logical that Konoha, the Country of Fire, also officially declared war on the Grass Ninja of the Country of Grass.

Of course, everyone now knows that after experiencing the catastrophe of the Kingdom of Whirlpool and the Nanao Incident, the current vitality of the Kingdom of Grass is greatly damaged!

Kusakure Village lost as much as [-]% of its ninja combat power, and the entire Country of Grass was in turmoil because of this.

So although this front has been opened, in fact the Kusanagi are unable to launch any substantive and effective military operations to invade Konoha.

As for Konoha, naturally only a small part of the ninja army was stationed for defense.However, Konoha also has no more spare power to send troops to the Country of Grass to carry out more operations.

So the two sides are now hostile to each other, but in a delicate balance.

As a person from the north entering the Land of Fire, Aragaki was naturally interrogated at the checkpoint, but these days there are too many "civilians" dressed as vagabonds like him.

The only thing that is a little strange is that compared to most vagabonds who go north to find a way out, his opposite direction of going south is indeed a little more eye-catching.

After all, the Land Country in the north is now the focus of the entire ninja world. It has long been rumored that countless ordinary people, not just ninjas, have made a fortune in that place where gold can be picked up by bending down.And even ordinary rogues have a great opportunity to step into the path of ninja and become a ninja!

World Tree, a place full of miracles and opportunities.

It was only after Aragaki traveled south that he learned that the world tree in the ninja world was as "beautiful" as heaven among ordinary people... In the words of the ninja world, it should be like a paradise.

But, is the World Tree really like this?As the boss behind World Tree, Aragaki Tsubasa naturally has the most say.

It can only be said that the current World Tree does indeed coexist with opportunities and risks. If you have the courage and ability, you can naturally make your way there. It can be said that the World Tree is the place where ordinary people in the ninja world can easily reach the ninja gate. No exaggeration.

Compared with the previous model where ninja villages and families completely monopolized "nindo", becoming a ninja in Yggdrasil will give you more opportunities to be exposed to more advanced ninjutsu.

However, precisely because of this "regardless of origin" characteristic, the current World Tree, or the Giant Tree Town under the World Tree, is more of a "free state" where no one cares about anything.

Although Aragaki also tried to maintain order and stability in Jushu Town by hiring ninjas at the beginning.

However, it can only be said that it is very futile. In this mixed world, there are all kinds of people from all over the ninja world, so disputes and conflicts will arise from this.

There are many ninja gangs, big and small, with leaders emerging one after another, and each has its own territory.

For example, those who work for Yggdrasil are collectively called "company employees"; those who join various gangs are called "street boys"; and of course, there are also "free people" who don't like to do anything.

Of course, Aragaki will not admit that he is the leader of "company employees", and in fact he is not.

It can be said that the company's employees are just a group of people who work for Yggdrasil, but are gathered together by some "ninjas from other countries" for ulterior purposes. Even they are not monolithic within themselves.

But no matter who they were, when these guys didn't violate Yggdrasil's core interests and the red line, Aragaki just turned a blind eye and let them play their part.

So on the way south, countless people asked him why he didn't go north with them to the Yearning World Tree to try the colorful life?

Aragaki smiled and replied that he had already seen it, that's all.

Therefore, everyone felt that he, a useless vagabond, really had no pursuits and no future to talk about!As the saying goes, good men go all the way north, but only cowards turn around and retreat south.

What else can Aragaki say about this?I can't tell a few dream chasers who are even more shabby than him. In fact, when I open my eyes every day, I wake up from the only boss suite at the top of the World Tree, thousands of meters above the ground, and then rinse my mouth and brush my teeth. I guess I take a shower with some sacred tree wine or something like that.

Whoever believes it would be regarded as a lunatic on the spot!

...

After successfully passing the checkpoint, Aragaki entered the mainland of the Fire Country. At this time, some people may say, why did Aragaki pass the level by land when he can fly?

In fact, it was just because he wanted to use this identity to move around the Land of Fire in the future, because in this era, entry and exit also require proof, which can be said to be a passport or a customs clearance document. some type of.

If he directly crosses this step, then he will face an "unidentified" problem when he enters and exits slightly larger towns in the Land of Fire.This matter is either small or big.

At the very least, no one might be able to find out about him. At the most serious level, if you underestimate Konoha's intelligence network, it would be troublesome if you were accidentally found out.

After all, the Country of Fire is no different than other small countries, not to mention that he is going to the Country of Rain. Drifters like him are more likely to be interrogated when the war breaks out.

Unless he was sleeping in the open air, what Aragaki needed this time was to enter the town to collect information about the Kingdom of Rain.

Of course, what's more important is that he can't ignore the food in the Fire Country. As a foodie, Aragaki has no reason to sleep in the open air.

It is also part of the plan to go to the Land of Rain and eat some northern delicacies that I have never had the chance to experience on the way.

...

However, what he didn't expect was that he also met an old acquaintance, Orochimaru, and a Konoha ninja team led by Orochimaru along the way.

Then this is interesting. They haven't seen each other in the past few years. Why is he willing to give up this opportunity to meet Orochimaru?
