Land of Fire.
After returning to the Land of Fire with Naruto, Sasuke, and Karin, Kanpū first went to the mission hall to submit their mission report. They rested for two days before heading out on another mission.
During this period, Kanpū used his deep theoretical knowledge to guide Naruto in improving his Rasengan. He also had Sasuke spar with Naruto, thus stimulating Sasuke and forcing him to push his limits and uncover his potential.
As for Karin, Kanpū positioned her as both a Sensor Shinobi and dical-nin, so her training mainly involved supervision. Anyway, with Sasuke around, Karin was too embarrassed to slack off.
After more than ten days, one night, Kanpū, who was staying overnight in the small forest with his three students, suddenly woke up. He was disturbed by the Ryumyaku's fluctuations in his mind.
Kanpū looked at it and it was obvious that his shadow clone was using Ryumyaku's power, but it was intermittent…
'Hyōketsu?'
Hanfeng imdiately realized that this spy must be the one doing it. After all, among the few shadow clones he has created, only Hyōketsu is still undercover in Akatsuki.
Kanpū imdiately activated Sage Mode and crawled to the Land of Fire's southeast coast through the network cable, and then dived into the deep sea.
White Zetsu couldn't hide in water, so the ocean was the safest place to keep so of Kanpū's secrets hidden.
After Kanpū deactivated the Byakugan Kekkei Genkai, his blue pupils turned black instantly.
Tenseigan, disappeared.
Kanpū wasn't surprised by this. He activated his Ice Release Kekkei Genkai, created two shadow clones, and then dispelled one of them.
In the next second, far away at the border between the Land of Earth and the Land of Grass, Hyōketsu imdiately dispelled himself, and his mories surged into Kanpū's mind.
"Go." Kanpū didn't imdiately check the mory, but ordered the Ice Release shadow clone in front of him to replace Hyōketsu.
After this shadow clone disappeared along the network cable, Kanpū began to sift through Hyōketsu's 'spy diary' while deactivating the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai and reactivating the Byakugan.
The instant the Byakugan appeared, it directly rged with his Otsutsuki physique. A faint trace of azure blue light quickly erged from the depths of his white pupils, and there was no signs of fetal movent anymore.
In the spy mory, there are all trivial things. Until recently…
'Orochimaru actually gave Yonbi to Akatsuki?'
'So generous?'
Kanpū continued reading and saw 'himself' captured the Gobi's Jinchuriki in Iwagakure, and then sealed Gobi with other Akatsuki's mbers' ntal projections, and finally, the information about Onoki commissioned Akatsuki.
"That old fox is quite sothing!" Kanpū quickly erged from the water after restoring his Tenseigan, and at the sa ti, he quickly made his way back to the small forest where they were camping.
Naruto, Sasuke and Karin were still sleeping soundly, oblivious to Kanpū's brief absence.
Kanpū gently walked to the side and lay down, but his mind kept on thinking.
'Onoki hires Akatsuki to create conflict between the Land of Grass and the Land of Earth, so that he can take the opportunity to invade the Land of Grass. Then, he'll have Akatsuki invade the Land of Fire to distract Konoha, giving Iwagakure ti to mobilize their army to the border of the Land of Grass and the Land of Fire, in coordination with the Kumogakure's army.'
'This old fox must have made a clandestine dealing with the Yondai Raikage, and it must be during the Five Kage Summit.'
'As for Sunagakure and Kirigakure, these two villages do not have Biju, and the newly recomnded Godai is also weak, they basically can't stir up much trouble.
'However, even if the four Great Shinobi Villages united, they still couldn't shake the current Konoha.'
...
A few days later, when after Kanpū and his team completed another B-Rank mission and returned to Konoha, Minato had already received a letter for help from Kusagakure's leader.
Minato doesn't know Iwagakure's plans, but he understood the principle of 'lips gone, teeth cold'. He couldn't sit by and let Iwagakure invade the Land of Grass.
However, sending a large army might escalate the conflict from a Land of Grass and Land of Earth issue to a Land of Fire and Land of Earth issue, bringing the fla of war to the Land of Fire. So, Minato decided to dispatch an elite team to aid the Land of Grass.
Hokage Tower.
Hokage's Office.
Kanpū, Itachi, and Guy arrived one after another.
"Guy, Kanpū, Itachi."
Seeing the three people have arrived, Minato said in a simple and concise manner, "Iwagakure is invading the Land of Grass. I want you three to go there and support them imdiately!"
"Yes." Kanpū responded loudly.
"Understood." Itachi was as calm as ever.
Guy, however, had a glint in his eye as he said, "Hokage-sama, I'd like to take Team 3 on this mission to give them so good experience!"
Minato pondered for a mont before nodding, "Very well."
Then, he looked towards Kanpū and said, "Kanpū, take Team 7 with you as well."
'Sending your own son to the battlefield, your heart is truly great…' Kanpū thought, but his face is full of admiration, "As expected of Hokage-sama, using this opportunity in the Land of Grass to train the new generation!"
'Isn't this what I ca up with?'
Guy tilted his head and looked at Kanpū.
Minato automatically ignored Kanpū's flattery and said: "You should depart imdiately. Stay safe!"
"Yes!"
The three people leave Hokage Tower and gathered Team 3: Neji, Tenten, and Lee, and Team 7: Naruto, Sasuke, and Karin. By noon, they had departed from Konoha, speeding towards the Land of Grass.
"Big brother, this is great! I get to go on a mission with you!"
In the deep mountains and forests, Sasuke followed Itachi's butt with excitent. At this mont, his face was brimming with excitent!
Karin was drooling at the sight!
Itachi frowned slightly, and said: "Sasuke, you're following too closely! This is an S-rank mission, and danger can arise at any mont, so all team mbers need to keep a certain distance to avoid falling into traps simultaneously!"
"But Big brother, we're still a few days away from the Land of Grass." Sasuke protested pitifully.
"Sasuke!" Itachi called with a stern face.
"Alright, alright." Seeing his big brother beca anger, Sasuke reluctantly putting so distance between them.
Itachi sighed at this. Sasuke always acted this carefree around him. If it were just the two of them, Itachi wouldn't mind, but with Kanpū here, he couldn't let Sasuke leave a bad impression. After all, it might lead to trouble for Sasuke in the future!
Therefore, Itachi can only work seriously at this ti!
After Sasuke retreated, Naruto, with a mischievous grin, sidled up to him and teased, "Sasuke, I never thought soone as pretentious as you could make such a face. It's so hilarious."
Sasuke's face twitched, and his pitiful expression suddenly returned to the usual arrogance, and then he said with a cold snort: "Shut up!!"
"Oh, Big brother~ this is great~~ I get to go on a mission with you~~~" Naruto mimicked Sasuke's tone and gestures, his mocking exaggerated.
Veins popped on Sasuke's forehead as his eyes reddened with anger: "Naruto, you bastard…"
"Sasuke!!!"
Itachi suddenly turned his head and stared at Sasuke sternly, "I said this is a mission. Danger can arise at any mont. Be serious!"
"But Big brother, it is Naruto who…" Sasuke started to protest but then, he quickly lowered his head under Itachi's severe gaze.
Naruto laughed even more upon seeing this, and was about to continue his teasing, but Kanpū intervened, "Naruto, co here. That's enough. How can you so recklessly mock your teammate? Reflect on your behavior!!!"
In fact, Kanpū believed that Naruto and Sasuke's constant bickering and competition helped each other grow stronger quickly. So, whenever they argued, fought, or competed, Kanpū was generally pleased!
It's just that this ti, Itachi stopped Sasuke with a 'fair and unselfish' attitude. If Kanpū still let Naruto continue mocking Sasuke like usual, wouldn't it an that he is unfair and biased as a teacher?
'Itachi, you're good!'
