Naruto: I Traveled with a Max Level Account

Chapter 375: Chapter 375: Are the Suna Ninja Really This Careless?



The Third Kazekage acknowledged Danzo's ruthless methods, but as for his command ability... that was questionable.

On the battlefield of the Land of Rain, Danzo had already shown what he was capable of.

It was only thanks to the young Sannin that Konoha managed to hold on; otherwise, countless more lives would have been lost before the war ended.

As for Danzo.

It wasn't that the Third Kazekage looked down on him, but if Danzo was truly capable, he wouldn't have had his house so easily raided by Chiyo.

He even nearly got himself killed and ended up disabled.

It was unlikely to be Danzo.

So who could it be?

It was improbable that the Third Hokage would personally make a move. Tsunade was stationed in Konoha, while Orochimaru and Jiraiya were at the eastern front.

Excluding these individuals, the Third Kazekage truly couldn't guess who else Konoha could send to confront him. According to Hatake Sakumo's description, it was someone formidable.

Could it be some hidden powerhouse secretly nurtured by Konoha?

That didn't seem likely.

"Let's head back!"

The Third Kazekage waved his hand and led his people back to the camp.

On the other side, someone curiously asked:

"Lord Sakumo, is Lord Takuya really..."

He wanted to ask if Takuya was really so ruthless, but as he was about to speak, he realized that their young commander, though young, was a genius of the village.

Not only was Takuya strong, but he was also their superior. Describing him in such a way felt inappropriate-it could easily lead to problems for him.

"I was bluffing. Did you all actually believe me?"

Sakumo believed Takuya was strong.

He also believed that Takuya was decisive and liked to take bold actions.

But to say that Takuya was ruthless? Sakumo couldn't help but feel awkward-he hadn't seen any such side of Takuya.

He had only said that to provoke the Third Kazekage.

Ruthless, my foot.

It was just tough talk.

|| ||

Bluffing?

Everyone was speechless. They hadn't expected that even the honest Hatake Sakumo could do something like that.

And to say it so confidently-I was bluffing!

"Sensei, doesn't this 'White Fang of Konoha' seem a bit..."

Rasa didn't know how to put his thoughts into words. The Third Kazekage glanced at him and said calmly:

"A bit unworthy of his reputation?"

"Yes,"

Although he felt there was more to what his teacher was saying, Rasa stuck to his opinion even if it was wrong. He gritted his teeth and nodded heavily.

Are you an idiot?

Pakura looked at Rasa like he was a fool.

Hearing his student's affirmation, the Third Kazekage's mouth twitched slightly, and his tone turned more severe:

"Remember, never underestimate anyone, especially your enemies. You never know what method they'll use to kill you. And don't question the strength of those whose names have spread across the shinobi world, as your doubt and arrogance can get you killed."

"If you encounter him on the battlefield, I allow you both to abandon your mission and retreat immediately."

Isn't that a bit of an overstatement?

Wasn't that too high of an evaluation?

Rasa opened his mouth in disbelief. No matter how he looked at Sakumo, he didn't seem like a powerhouse-he appeared old, with none of the aura a strong shinobi should have.

I can't watch this anymore.

I actually competed with such an idiot for so many years!

Pakura rubbed her forehead.

"Lord Kazekage, I still have patrol duties, so I won't disturb you any further."

"Hmm, go ahead."

The Third Kazekage nodded slightly. While Pakura was better than Rasa in some respects, he wasn't too fond of her.

After all, Rasa was his student, personally trained as his successor.

As the next generation leader of the village, the Third Kazekage favored and supported his

student more.

"Damn it!"

Once out of the command post, Pakura's face darkened.

She didn't know what more she could do to make the Third Kazekage acknowledge her and stop favoring Rasa.

Recalling the patience the Third Kazekage showed Rasa while being cold to her, Pakura felt powerless.

She was confident she could compete with Rasa, but some things couldn't be achieved through effort alone.

Rasa's magnetic release abilities and his position as the Third Kazekage's student gave him too much of an advantage.

It wasn't something she could overcome by simply working harder.

"You all, follow me."

While Rasa was with the Third Kazekage every day learning, Pakura, who was no weaker, was left patrolling and handling trivial matters, which only worsened her mood. Her tone turned

icy as she addressed her companions.

What's bothering Lady Pakura now?

The few of them shuddered and quickly followed Pakura out of the camp for their patrol

duties.

Before the major battles started, patrol duties were the most common and frequent tasks in

the camp.

With pent-up frustration, Pakura led her team to the patrol area, dutifully carrying out her mission while suppressing her dissatisfaction with Rasa and the Third Kazekage.

A kunoichi in the team who had a good relationship with Pakura cautiously asked:

"Lady Pakura, do you think we can win this war?"

"Of course we can!"

Pakura replied confidently.

"Our village isn't weak. Though we're not as strong as Konoha overall, Konoha isn't what it

used to be. Besides, they're also fighting Kirigakure, and they've already taken significant

losses. Fighting on two fronts means they can't possibly win."

"That's great! If we win the war, we won't have to bear the heavy reparations, right?

Because of that, the rewards for our missions have been cut, and we've been earning a lot less."

The kunoichi cheered at Pakura's words.

Although shinobi made a lot of money, their expenses were also high, and with fewer

missions available in Sunagakure, they couldn't earn as much as Konoha's shinobi.

As a result, most shinobi in Sunagakure lived rather frugally.

"We will win." Recalling the village's hardships since the Second Shinobi World War, Pakura clenched her fist

and said with conviction:

"Victory will be ours, and our living conditions will improve. Trust me, and trust in Lord

Kazekage."

Despite her discontent, Pakura knew what was right. She still had faith in the Third Kazekage.

She wouldn't let personal issues affect her judgment of the Kazekage.

"That's wonderful."

The group chatted away, talking excitedly.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Since the major battle hadn't yet begun, the Suna shinobi hadn't fully entered a wartime

mindset, and their vigilance had dropped significantly.

Combined with certain hidden measures, they didn't even notice that a young Konoha shinobi was nearby, listening to their conversation from a tree, his expression odd.

Sunagakure will win?

Big words.

This must be Pakura of Sunagakure.

The distinctive green hair, elegant face, special halter backless ninja outfit, and a figure

comparable to Tsunade's all told Takuya that this was none other than Pakura, Sunagakure's

scorch release user.

Rasa's old rival, eventually betrayed and killed by Rasa in collaboration with Kirigakure.

Are you really okay being this careless?

Talking so boldly right in front of me I almost feel embarrassed for eavesdropping.

The Suna shinobi's lack of vigilance and Takuya's strong concealment led to this bizarre scene

on the battlefield.

Seeing that the conversation showed no signs of stopping, Takuya couldn't help but

interrupt:

"What if you lose? Won't the Suna shinobi end up without even their underwear?"

"Nonsense, I have confidence in Lord Kazekage and our village."

Pakura hadn't realized there was someone nearby and thought it was one of her teammates

speaking. She turned her head, glaring at them with a cold expression.

But what she saw were stunned, shocked faces.

Oh no, an enemy!
