Chapter 108: A Simple Swim 

"Ryosuke-sama."

Sanno Village.

The room was filled with a strong smell of herbs and a hint of blood.

Hyuga Tamao was lying on the bed resting somewhat weakly, and standing in front of him was Ryosuke who had been secretly following the team.

There were quite a few ninjas who attacked in the canyon battle, including dozens of Chunins and five Jonins. No matter which ninja village they were sent from, they were a strong force.

The complete annihilation of this force is definitely a huge loss for those behind the scenes.

So the journey was relatively peaceful afterwards.

Konoha's team successfully arrived at Sanno Village and met up with the representatives of the delegation sent by the Fire Nation.

They first settled the seriously injured and unable to fight in the village, and then rented a boat and rushed to the Land of Waves.

Taking advantage of this time, Ryosuke has the opportunity to show up and meet Tamao.

"I'm sorry, if I had been more careful, you might not have broken your arm..."

Ryosuke looked at him with some guilt.

Since he has the ability to control others, he is of course prepared for possible casualties.

But when the problem actually happened, Ryosuke realized that he was not prepared and he could not ignore the lives of those who were willing to believe in him.

"Please don't feel guilty, Ryosuke-sama."

But Tamao was secretly very pleased with his apology, "It's my honor to work for you."

"Besides, without you, our team would have suffered even greater losses."

"On the contrary, I feel that I owe a favor to Lord Ryosuke, and it was you who allowed me to show my face in front of everyone."

On the way, he had already roughly understood what Lord Ryosuke did when he used his body.

He killed several Chunins alone, and worked with the team to severely injure more than a dozen people.

Afterwards, he even attacked and killed the Sand Village jonin and the opponent's puppets head-on alone.

At the cost of an arm, he successfully killed the puppet and held back the Sand Village jonin.

This achievement was something he had never dared to imagine.

Along the way, almost everyone in the team was concerned about him. Even the village's high-ranking Hokage advisor, praised him highly.

This honor was something he had never felt in his entire life.

Ninjas, of course, are mission-focused.

He personally felt it was worth it to sacrifice an arm, complete the mission and gain honor.

As for Tamao's excitement, Ryosuke could also feel his sincerity, rather than just a pretense to comfort him.

"I will find a way to mend your arm. This is my promise to you."

Ryosuke looked at his empty right arm and made the promise.

In this world, there are methods of creating things out of the void and regenerating after losing an arm. He believes that he will master similar abilities in the future.

By then, it would not be difficult for Ryosuke to return an arm to Hyuga Tamao.

"Thank you, Ryosuke-sama!"

This was what he should do, but Hyuga Tamao was touched and appreciated.

It is very common for branch families to sacrifice themselves for the sake of protecting the main family.

But...he was somewhat flattered to receive a response and attention.

Nodding silently, Ryosuke didn't stay long. After giving a few more instructions to everyone to have a good rest, he prepared to catch up with Hinata Hizashi and the others.

He could understand Tamao's mentality.

Because this is a rigid ideology brought about by the family system, they have no way to break away from this ideology.

But Ryosuke understood that, but that didn't mean he could take it for granted.

Faced with a group of people who were willing to give everything for him without hesitation, including their lives, he felt heavy in his heart. Although he could accept it, he could not take it for granted.

Ryosuke needs to be responsible for those people who know the truth but are still willing to sacrifice for him.

But before that, he needs to deal with the matter in front of him.

Suppressing the complicated emotions in his heart, Ryosuke came to the edge of the cliff.

In front of us is the endless seaside.

He had explored the surrounding area and found no trace of any enemy ninja. He even cleaned up all the traces he had left on the beach as he walked.

It was his usual practice to do things carefully, in an organized and prepared manner, and cleanly.

Next, we have to take the water route.

Looking at the sea calmly, Ryosuke slowly took off his clothes, revealing a strong body with extremely coordinated muscle distribution.

Although normally, when he was dressed, because of his skin color, he looked like a weak scholar.

But in fact, without the covering of clothes, his body is full of bulging muscles, with a beauty of wild power.

The clothes were quickly and temporarily sealed into the special scroll prepared in advance.

Wow——

Ryosuke ran forward and jumped up from the edge of the cliff.

His body moved gracefully in the air and finally fell into the sea with a slight sound.

But it hardly caused any waves.

With this diving skill, if he were to participate in the Olympics, he would definitely win a gold medal.

Like a released fish, Ryosuke flew far away due to the thrust when he fell into the water.

As a delegation from Konoha, although Hyuga Hizashi and his companions had to be vigilant against enemy attacks at all times, they could rent small boats and cross the sea with dignity.

But Ryosuke can't.

There are too few things that can serve as cover in this sea, and if we go there by boat, we will undoubtedly be discovered by the people on the island.

By then, he would not be able to explain clearly to either the people from Konoha or other countries.

So, I can only swim over.

Crossing the sea in the physical body sounds difficult.

But in fact, in this world with chakra, it is not difficult, and most ninjas can do it.

It's just the distance that's different.

Ryosuke didn't even need the help of chakra. He relied solely on his physical strength to quickly dive into the water and swam towards the distant island.

His speed may be no less than that of sharks in the sea.

However, although Ryosuke swam very fast, he also kept an eye on the surrounding environment.

He didn't know whether there would be enemies from other countries who would do the same as him and plan to sneak into the Land of Waves.

Although the ninja world seemed calm on the surface and almost no news was leaked, from the fact that they were attacked halfway, Ryosuke could clearly guess that their alliance plan should have been exposed.

Since they were attacked halfway, it was very likely that the enemy had already entered the Land of Waves and had set various traps for them to step into.

Fortunately, Hyuga Hizashi and his men successfully landed on the island and informed Ryosuke through special means, which means that the masterminds behind the scenes do not want to provoke a direct war.

They still have some sense, so they use some secret means to try to divide their alliance and cast their plans.

However, the nations involved in this alliance plan, in addition to the two major nations of Land of Wind and Fire, also include small and medium-sized nations such as Land of Snow, Bear , Soup, and Iron.

Although these countries are not very powerful, they all have their own advantages in other aspects. When they unite, they are a powerful force that is no weaker than that of the major powers.

Among them, there are the Land of Iron  and the Land of Soup, which have always remained neutral.

If the masterminds behind this alliance who intend to sabotage the alliance go all out and provoke a direct fight, the war will directly spread to the entire ninja world.

It is no longer just a matter between a Nations.
