Chapter 28 Rope Tree Arrives
The next day, Tsunade handed over the supreme command here to White Fang, and she herself devoted herself to developing an antidote.

And there is also good news today, that is, Sheng Shu is here.

It was the first time that Zhang Shan saw Sheng Shu. He had brown hair and his cheeks were a little rosy.

At this time, Nawaki was a little excited. He was on the battlefield in the Land of Earth. Orochimaru didn't let him go to the front line and even didn't let him clean up the corpses. He just followed Orochimaru every day and listened to his strategic arrangements.

But Nawaki really didn't understand that kind of thing! In his opinion, ninjas should rush to the front line to kill the enemy! What's the point of hiding in the back?

But as a ninja, obeying orders is his duty!

No matter how reluctant he was, he would still do what Orochimaru said.

Just when Nawaki thought that he would continue like this, he suddenly received a summons from Tsunade, asking him to come to the front line because she had something to discuss with him.

This sudden turn of events made Sheng Shu extremely excited!
If I can't go to the front line with Orochimaru, then I can always follow my sister, right?

With this belief, after receiving the order, Nawaki did not want to delay for a moment and rushed towards Tsunade with his things.

After two and a half days of traveling, he finally arrived at the camp this morning.

"Oh, it's Minato and the others who asked you to come over. Go find them. It's very dangerous here. Don't come to me recently." Tsunade frowned and said seriously.

"Minato?" Nawaki knew Minato, and he had heard about the matter between him and Kushina, but the two of them had almost no interactions. Why did Minato look for him?

With doubts, Sheng Shu came to the tent of Shuimen and others, but found that there was no one here. Zhang Shan and the others had gone out to practice, so it would be strange to have someone in the tent!
"Is there a note?" Sheng Shu picked up the note on the table.

'There's something wrong with the river to the east.'

In order to prevent any emergencies, Minato left a note so that others could find them easily.

Shengshu put the note back to its place, walked out of the tent and headed straight east!

At this time, Zhang Shan was squatting by the river, with his hands clasped together and a serious expression on his face.

"Zhang Shan is doing some weird practice again." Ding Zuo ate the barbecue with big mouthfuls and did not forget to complain about Zhang Shan.

"It looks like a very powerful practice method!" Minato observed Zhang Shan's practice, trying to see something.

At this moment, a figure landed not far from them. The other person looked at Minato as if he was confirming something, and finally nodded and said, "Yellow-haired, handsome, it seems to be Minato Namikaze!"

Feeling someone coming, Zhang Shan stopped his practice, threw away the leaves in his hand that he had carved into small flowers, and looked up, only to see a boy who looked a bit like Minato walking towards them.

"This is the beardless version of Naruto, right? This guy is quite handsome, only inferior to me and Minato!" Zhang Shan complained in his heart, but on the surface he was puzzled: "Who are you? Nawaki?"

Sheng Shu nodded generously and smiled: "Hello everyone! I am Qian Shou Sheng Shu! My sister asked me to come find you. I went to your tent and found the note inside, so I came here to find you!"

"Look! I told you that leaving a note was a good decision!" Minato raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Leaving a note is a good idea, but it's impolite to give it a strategic name." After Zhang Shan complained about Minato, he came to Nawaki, patted his shoulder and smiled: "Hello! My name is Zhang Shan, and I'm currently studying the sealing technique with Lord Mito. I was the one who called you over here!"

"You called me here?" Sheng Shu was full of questions. Compared to Minato, he and Zhang Shan were really not familiar with each other at all. They had never even heard of each other. So, what did the other party want to see him about?

"That's right, I was the one who asked you to come here!" Zhang Shan said with a smile, "Ms. Mito said that you are not doing your job properly all day long, and you only do things based on your own impulse. She was afraid that you would die on the battlefield. In order not to worry her, I decided to call you to my side and teach you how to become stronger!"

Sheng Shu's face became darker and darker, and his dissatisfaction with Zhang Shan was completely written on his face.

He's Nawaki! The grandson of the first Hokage, who became a Chunin directly after graduating a year ago. He's a super genius who was personally taught by Jiraiya and Orochimaru! Now he's looked down upon by the kid in front of him?
Is it because I, Shengshu, am too low-key that no one knows how great I am?
Just when Sheng Shu was about to explode, Zhang Shan seemed not to notice Sheng Shu's dark face and continued, "By the way, you are the grandson of Master Hashirama. Do you know Wood Release now?"

"How is that possible!" Rope Tree roared, "That kind of bloodline limit that is unique to an old man can't be inherited. Besides, if it can really be inherited, it should be my father who awakened it first, right?"

"Oh~ Do you know the Flying Thunder God Technique of the Second Generation?"

Rope Tree took a long breath, suppressed his anger, and said with disdain: "The Flying Thunder God Technique is the most difficult ninjutsu in the ninja world. Except for Second Grandpa, no one can use it now."

"Really?" Zhang Shan waved to Minato behind him, and the latter immediately understood!
Whoosh!
A kunai flew out, and the next second, Minato's body appeared next to the kunai, still holding the kunai he had just thrown in his hand!
Even Zhiwei and Ding Zuo were so shocked by this scene that they were speechless.

As teammates in a team, they didn't even know that Minato had this trick up his sleeve!
Not to mention Rope Tree, he also tried to practice the Flying Thunder God Technique, but the final result was undoubtedly failure.

But he still knew how Flying Thunder God performed, instantly traveling from one place to another, exactly the same as what Minato did just now!
In other words, the Minato in front of him, who was only one year younger than him, had actually mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique!

Seeing everyone's reaction, Minato smiled shyly and said, "In fact, I have only just mastered this move not long ago, and the Flying Thunder God Technique consumes a lot of chakra. I currently only use this move as a ninjutsu for escaping."

"But...but!" Sheng Shu was shocked and couldn't speak for a long time.

At this time, Zhang Shan said: "In other words, you came to the battlefield to be cannon fodder without any property? No wonder Lord Mito is so worried about you!"

This is not something Zhang Shan said nonsense. When he was practicing with Mito before, he did often hear Mito talking about his grandchildren.

Mito had nothing to worry about his granddaughter, as Tsunade was already a powerful ninja who could stand on her own.

But when it comes to the rope tree, I am always full of worries.

Zhang Shan also talked to Mito, but Mito only said that Nawaki had a sunny and cheerful personality, a bit like Hashirama, but he didn't study ninjutsu well. He kept shouting that he wanted to become Hokage, but he didn't understand what Hokage was at all.

This gave Mito a headache.

After hearing Zhang Shan's words, Minato showed a look of understanding.

He asked why Zhang Shan was looking for Shengshu for no reason. It turned out that he was worried that Mito would be sad after Shengshu died on the battlefield!

"Indeed, with Zhang Shan's strength, it is too easy to protect a Chunin on the battlefield. Letting Nawaki stay with us is indeed safer than anywhere else!"
