The Second Generation Mizukage and his group have been traveling on the sea, and it can be seen that their activities are very secretive and cautious.
This team of ninjas first entered the inland sea through the straits between the Land of Hot Springs, the Land of Whirlpools, and the Land of Iron, and then slipped along the coastline of the Land of Iron all the way to the northwest.
Their whereabouts were slippery and unpredictable. If the Hanyu team had not kept an eye on this group of people from the very beginning, it would have been impossible to complete such a tracking.
Next, the Mizukage team crossed the Moon Kingdom between the Rice Kingdom and the Lightning Kingdom, entered the northern waters of the continent from the eastern waters of the continent, and after continuing to move on the sea, they finally landed in the Frost Kingdom and began to approach the Taki Kingdom.
This journey lasted for five days, and during these five days, the Hanyu team was highly nervous and carried out the tracking mission carefully.
Tailing a ninja like the Second Mizukage must be a great challenge to a person's mental limits. Even if it was Hanyu, he dared to try to assassinate a ninja like Hanzo of the Salamander , but he would never make the same attempt on the Second Mizukage.
Twenty years in the future, Hanzo can be called a "demigod", but if it is twenty years ago... he is indeed a very powerful ninja, but can he be called a demigod? Are you kidding me, is Hanzo equal to half of the first generation Hokage?
By this time, Hanyu had completely understood the Second Mizukage's intention... This group of people went around in such a big circle just to sneak into the Land of Earth quietly.
The Second Mizukage either had deep affection or overwhelming hatred for the Second Tsuchikage, otherwise he would never put himself in danger.
At this time, the Hanyu team stopped in a dense forest in the Land of Fire. A few minutes ago, the Mizukage team had just passed here. No matter whether they were being tracked or the trackers, they had clearly circled around the outskirts of the Land of Fire, but no one had ever set foot on the territory of the Land of Fire.
"So far, I think the goal of the Second Mizukage is very clear. He should want to sneak into the Land of Earth and take the opportunity to assassinate the Second Tsuchikage." Hanyu said this. He basically confirmed his previous guess... The Second Mizukage is indeed out to die.
"The Mizukage... personally carries out infiltration and assassination missions?" Nagisa found it unbelievable at first, but then nodded, "No, if it is the Second Mizukage, it seems that he can indeed do such a thing."
Although the feud between the Second Mizukage and the Second Tsuchikage, as well as the style of the Mizukage himself, cannot be said to be known to everyone in the current ninja world, there are many ninjas who have heard of the rumors.
"Well, although this is just my guess and there is no way to confirm it, I think it is almost certain." Hanyu said, "This is already the Frost Country, and further ahead is the Taki Country. The situation over there is extremely complicated. Not only does Takigakure exist, but the battle lines of Kumogakure and Iwagakure are also intertwined.
Therefore, if we continue to follow , the possibility of our team being exposed and the degree of danger we ourselves will be in will greatly increase."
"If the Second Mizukage went deep into the Land of Earth for the Second Tsuchikage, then how can he find him in the vast land of the Land of Earth?" Yasanagi expressed doubt.
"It should be... a spy. Kirigakure has a spy planted in Iwagakure, and the Mizukage only set out after learning of the Tsuchikage's movements." Renjuro gave a very reasonable explanation, and Hanyu and Nagisa thought so too, so they nodded in agreement with Renjuro's statement, but did not make any other guesses.
In fact, Hanyu believes that not only has Kirigakure planted spies in Iwagakure, but Iwagakure also has such a reverse operation. What's more, there may be double agents who pass information to both sides... Otherwise, it is difficult to explain the subsequent encounter between the two Kages.
So he continued, "The next mission is extremely dangerous, so I think we should split up into two. In order to ensure the safety of the intelligence we have already obtained, Nagisa, Yasanagi, you will summarize the current situation and bring it back to the village, and then follow our original route. This route is relatively safe...
As for Renjuro and I, we will continue to try to find out the situation."
There was nothing wrong with this judgment. Although there were other ways to bring the intelligence back to the village, Hanyu made this arrangement just because he didn't want all the members of the team to take risks. Two people evacuated, two people continued to perform the mission, leaving behind a reconnaissance ninja and Hanyu himself. After streamlining the team, their actions should be more flexible and convenient.
Nagisa opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but unexpectedly Yasanagi spoke first, "I am against this arrangement. If it is to bring back the message, it would be better for Nagisa to act alone. I... am the kind of team-oriented ninja with only one skill. Therefore, if I act with Nagisa, if there is any accident, I will only reduce his chances of survival."
Frankly speaking, what she said makes sense... Yasanagi is just an archer, lacking melee combat ability and survivability, and she will easily drag down her teammates if she is not careful.
Although her statement went against Hanyu's thoughts, there was no way to refute it. Hanyu thought about it and agreed that this was the case. It would be safer for Yasanagi to stay with him than with Nagisa.
So Hanyu could only turn his gaze to Nagisa and said, "It seems that I have not considered it carefully. Then Nagisa, I will leave the information to you."
Nagisa was silent, then just nodded.
"Then I'll leave right away."
Once the decision was made, the team split into two without any delay. Nagisa sent the information back, while the remaining three continued the tracking mission.
Hanyu and the other two continued to move forward, and just when they were about to reach the border of the Land of Earth, Hanyu realized that his previous worries were a bit unnecessary... The Second Generation Mizukage had no worries about not finding the Second Generation Tsuchikage, because before entering the Land of Earth, the Tsuchikage led his team to block the Mizukage at the border.
It all looked like a fight between hooligans after school, but it was obvious that the spies on both sides played their due role.
"This information is a bit explosive..."
Hanyu and his two companions hid far away on the hillside of a mountain, watching the confrontation from afar. But not long after, he continued, "Let's go. Now that we have confirmed that the Second Tsuchikage and Mizukage have met, and the location of the battle between the two sides has been clarified, we should withdraw next. Our current location is not safe."
He remembered that the Second Mizukage had a large-scale unlimited blasting ninjutsu, and Hanyu definitely didn't want his team to be involved in such an indiscriminate attack.
"What about the outcome of the battle? Don't we need to stay and confirm it?" Renjuro asked.
"I have other ways to find out, so there is no need for us to stay here," Hanyu said.
He has quietly left a slug clone here to monitor the battlefield... Although Hanyu knows the outcome of this battle, who knows if the result will happen "as usual"?
He lives in an extremely realistic world, so how could he possibly completely believe the so-called "plot information"?
After confirming that the Second-generation Mizukage and the Second-generation Tsuchikage had encountered each other, his team began to retreat quietly according to Hanyu's orders. This was a decision he had made in advance... No matter what the rest of the matter was, he could just leave it to Katsuyu to monitor.
Hanyu's plans have always been comprehensive, but they never seem to be perfectly executed. This is also the case now, but this time it has nothing to do with his subjective activities.
Hanyu wanted to evacuate in time, but he never realized that a grim situation was waiting for him ahead.
