Finally, another month passed.
The door of Chiyama Gekkō's house was finally knocked on.
Looking at the Anbu outside the door, Chiyama Gekkō wasn't the least bit surprised.
After all, Sakumo Hatake was currently the leader of the Anbu. It was perfectly normal for him to send an Anbu member to notify him.
"Lord Sakumo has an order for you to go to the Lord Hokage's office."
"There's a mission."
Chiyama Gekkō nodded, then directly activated the Flying Thunder God Technique right in front of the Anbu member and disappeared in an instant.
This feat left the Anbu messenger completely dumbfounded.
Looking at the already vanished Chiyama Gekkō, he couldn't help but murmur:
"No wonder he caught Lord Sakumo's eye. Is it a space ninjutsu?"
"Sure enough, it's terrifyingly powerful."
The spell of Chiyama Gekkō's Flying Thunder God Technique was exactly engraved on the top of the Hokage Building.
It wasn't clear if he did it on purpose, but most of the jutsu he set up in the village were on the rooftops.
"Since you're here, don't just stand on the rooftop. Come in quickly."
Suddenly, the window of the Hokage's office was opened, and a familiar figure poked his head out.
It was Heiichi Yamanaka.
"Yo, Heiichi. It seems we'll be together on this mission again."
Chiyama Gekkō didn't feel the least bit embarrassed about climbing through the window.
After entering through the window, he found that there were already quite a few people standing in the room.
Sakumo Hatake stood at the front, and behind him stood five people, among whom was Heiichi Yamanaka who had just rejoined the team.
"You're here. You were the last one to be informed, but unexpectedly, you came quite quickly."
Sakumo said with a smile. Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Hokage beside him, twitched the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but complain loudly.
"Kid, remove that jutsu on the rooftop later, or I'll teach you a lesson!"
This rascal actually dared to leave a jutsu on his Hokage Building. It was too much!
If he accidentally activates the Telescope Technique in the future and this little rascal sees something, ugh, it's simply unthinkable.
"Hey hey hey, it's just one jutsu. Lord Hokage, you're not gonna be that stingy, are you?"
"Get rid of it for me right away, Humph!"
After warning Chiyama Gekkō again, Hiruzen Sarutobi walked to the desk and took a puff of his cigarette.
As the smoke dispersed.
"This mission is an exploration mission to prepare for the subsequent war."
"We mainly need to figure out the movements of Sunagakure. It would be best if we can find out the general situation of the enemy's military strength."
"Sakumo, you can continue."
As the leader of this mission, Sakumo Hatake's participation was enough to show the importance and danger of this mission.
"I won't go into the importance of this mission."
"This time, I'll be leading the team deep into the Land of Wind."
"We might just go straight into Sunagakure. That's why I specifically recruited Chiyama Gekkō, our village's concealment specialist."
"His Touton and Flying Thunder God Technique are the key safeguards for this mission."
Having said that, Sakumo looked at Chiyama Gekkō, making the latter a little embarrassed.
"However, the limitations of the Flying Thunder God Technique are also great, especially when it comes to transporting others and person-to-person teleportation. So, unless it's a critical moment, it's better not to use it."
Sakumo Hatake had already learned from Heiichi Yamanaka the whole story of what had happened in the Land of Hot Water back then.
Just transporting only him alone, Chiyama Gekkō consumed a huge amount of chakra.
Considering that he was still a young boy and his chakra reserve wouldn't be substantial, Sakumo directly regarded the Flying Thunder God Technique as his ultimate trump card.
"Gekko clan, Chiyama Gekkō, spy."
"Yamanaka Clan, Heiichi Yamanaka, in charge of security and sensory work."
"Hyuga Clan, Mitsuto Hyuga, also in charge of security work."
"Ken Aoyama, combatant."
"Dotetsu, combatant."
"Tsukino, medic."
Sakumo Hatake recited the information of everyone here.
The members of this mission were elites he handpicked from various fields. On the one hand, it could ensure the success rate of the mission, and on the other hand, it could guarantee the safety of the personnel.
"Lord Hokage, we're setting off."
Since everyone had already gathered, they set off directly.
Led by Sakumo Hatake, the seven of them left the Hokage Building directly and headed southwest.
At the same time, in Sunagakure, the Village Hidden in the Sand of the Land of Wind.
The harsh environment filled with flying sand and dust had become the perfect nourishment for cultivating ninjas.
In the Kazekage Building, the Third Kazekage, Saemon Haneda, looked at the intelligence in his hand with a very calm expression.
On the other side of his desk, two middle-aged people were standing.
"Saemon Haneda, regarding this war, I request to lead the surprise attack team."
The person speaking was a woman. She was wearing a long robe and had lavender hair. Her expression was very serious when she spoke.
The man standing beside her let out a soft sigh.
Kazekage Saemon Haneda gave her a deep look and said,
"Chiyo, I know you're itching to avenge your family, but I have my own plans for the war against Konoha."
"You and Ebizo, one of you has to guard Sunagakure, and the other has to command the medical ninjas."
"I won't let you go to the front line."
Chiyo's son and daughter-in-law were killed by Konoha's White Fang during the last Shinobi World War. This made her harbor deep hatred for White Fang and Konoha Village as well.
"Humph! Is there anyone more suitable to take the lead in the charge than me?"
"Have you already forgotten Hanzō?"
"During the last Shinobi World War, if I hadn't gone to the front line, God knows how much more damage our Sunagakure would have suffered."
Chiyo didn't yield at all. She had to go to the main battlefield against Konoha and personally kill Konoha's White Fang to avenge her son and daughter-in-law.
"Chiyo, don't forget, I'm the Kazekage."
"The surprise attack team will have a commander. You don't need to bring it up anymore."
The Third Kazekage's voice remained steady, but suddenly the entire office started to shake.
A large amount of black Iron Sand suddenly appeared in the office.
Chiyo's expression changed slightly when she saw this Iron Sand.
This was the Third Kazekage's ultimate jutsu, Magnet Release: Iron Sand.
At the same time, the Third Kazekage was also hailed as the most powerful Kazekage because of this jutsu.
"Humph!"
Chiyo snorted and turned away.
Ebizo then asked the Kazekage,
"Who do you plan to assign the surprise attack team to?"
"Yugura?"
The Third Kazekage didn't answer, but just made a gesture of invitation.
Ebizo didn't say anything further and turned around to leave.
After the two had left the office.
The Third Kazekage scattered the Iron Sand around him and continued reading the intelligence with an unchanged expression.
Ebizo was right. He indeed planned to send Yugura as the vanguard.
After all, Yugura, who possessed the Kekkei Genkai, was also a powerful fighter in Sunagakure. With her stationed at the front, the effect would be much better.
The yellow sand outside the window kept rustling. Sunagakure was surrounded by the yellow sand in this way.
A few days later.
The team led by Sakumo Hatake eventually entered the Land of Wind.
Looking at the endless desert in front of them, everyone had very diverse expressions.
"I really don't know how Sunagakure can be located in the middle of this yellow sand."
"If it were me, I would have gone crazy long ago."
Chiyama Gekko complained mercilessly. After all, the seemingly endless desert was truly frustrating.

I sincerely hope everyone can give a thumbs up, write a paragraph review, and if possible, give a five-star rating.
