Chapter 23

After running for three hours at full speed , Dai was fine but Hiro and Kiba were gulping water like they had been thirsty for a week .

They had recently arrived near a small waterfall and hid inside the cave behind it . Now that they had traveled to a safe place , Dai and others could not stop themselves from asking Gin about the reason behind his worry. Honestly they had never seen worried expression on their casual captain's face before .

" Captain now tell us already what you saw at the enemy base ? "

Hiro asked in a very curious tone as he tried to calm his breathing down after drinking several cups of drinking water .

Gin's expression was neutral as he looked at the small square shaped sealing tag placed on his arm guard . This was an item given to him personally by Sakumo before they left for the mission .

" Hmm. It's nothing, I just saw more than hundred shinobi of Suna inside the base and gained information with much difficulty that their Leader is Lady Chiyo the puppeteer. Well I got the information after sneaking inside the base that they were planning to sneak attack on our center battlefield's forces soon ."

Hiro and Kiba were speechless as they listened to Gin telling the extremely dangerous information in a tone like he was casually chatting with them . Dai also understood the gravity of the situation after some time and went silent unlike his usual youth this and that talk ..

Chiyo Kage level ninja ..

Elite Jonins ..

More than hundred enemy ninja ..

The situation was too dire and even a academy student could easily guess that after he remembered the three disturbing facts..

Dai and others were more stunned by the fact that their amazing captain somehow snuck inside such a dangerous enemy base and got out safely with so much vital information..

Gin had not looked at his subordinates once as he indifferently told the news to them . Gin was only looking at the seal tag which had a compact summoning jutsu inscribed on it . Gin had obtained huge knowledge of fuinjutsu before so he was extremely interested in stuff related to it right now ..

Gin moulded some chakra and sent it inside the seal tag which flashed for a moment before with a puff of smoke, a small white pigeon came out of the smoke cloud . Gin was feeling marveled because it was the first he had seen space time jutsu called summoning jutsu live after arriving in this world. Gin also started thinking that he should get a useful summon too because it may be of help when battling enemies or can be used for emergency escape ..

This chakra bird beast was special one used by Konoha's elite forces for delivering emergency messages. Gin took a thin just a half his big finger's size long scroll and attached it to the pigeon's leg after writing his message and mission report briefly on it with a brush .

Gin softly held the pigeon and he gently threw it towards the sky . As he looked at the pigeon already more than one hundred meters in the sky , he could not help but admire its abilities. That small bird could actually fly at fast speed more than 600 meters above the ground level easily . From Gin's estimates, Sakumo will receive his message in only about five hours.

Gin smiled when he thought that his squad would recover huge war merits for delivering this important information to the base before the enemy could even reach inside hundred kilometers radius from the base .

" Hmm.. why are you three so serious all of a sudden ? " Gin feigned surprise as he eyed Dai thinking seriously which was too unexpected for a muscle brain like him ..

" Captain you... you told us such dangerous information and ask this question ? I really dont know how genius brains like yours work at all... " Kiba genuinely sighed as he massaged his temple with his fingers..

" Haha.. nothing's dangerous at all . You guys just are feeling scared for nothing. Instead you should rejoice because of my info , the base will be prepared to face the pincer attack from two sides already . Suna forces will not notice this and maybe they will be the ones to suffer huge damage from the upcoming huge battle . Seriously guys, we were already out of danger when we escaped for the enemy's range and arrived inside this waterfall cave . My dear friends, you guys should learn to think much more deeply about things because sometimes the key to break through a pinch is in our hands already but we fail to notice it because we get our mind clouded with fear ... "

Gin started laughing lightly as he walked slowly and soon sat in the corner and proceeded to close his eyes . Hiro and the other two could not help but nod at Gin's wise words with enlightened expressions. Even Dai understood the gist of the small lesson and flashed a huge thumbs up at Gin ..

Gin had actually never thought that he was in a dangerous situation . He was just worried about the safety of this subordinates before and they easily managed to escape . So now Gin felt his mind enter a relaxed state . Thus he soon fell asleep . One shadow clone was keeping watch all the time so Gin wasn't worried about a thing now..
