35 Sunagakure's Infiltration

"No, this plan is too risky." After hearing Junrei's proposal, Minato vetoed it without thinking.

Although the power of Konoha is strong, the strength of Sunagakure can't be underestimated. Once a spot is left for the Sand Village at the border, no one could know what they would take the opportunity to do. If they fall into Konoha's trap as expected, then naturally things will be great, but if Sunagakure really manages to get something out of it, no one here could take this responsibility.

Junrei's face had an indifferent expression. Minato's rejection was long anticipated by him. If this approach could be assured to work, Orochimaru would not send a team into the Land of Wind to investigate their plot.

"This operation of Sunagakure is definitely a top secret. There are only 2 places where we can find this information. The first is the highest Commander on the Hidden Sand Village's camp; the second would be the high levels of Hidden Sand Village..." Junrei's looked at Minato, and said," If we want to get accurate information, we can only go to those 2 places. "

Everyone was a little silent when they heard Junrei's words.

Although it had been known that this mission would be difficult, they didn't expect for the Village to simply send them to die.

Whether it is sneaking into the Hidden Sand Village camp or diving into their camp, it's a matter of ten posibilities, with nine of them being dead and one being staying alive. And among everyone's here, only Minato that has initial mastery of [Flying Thunder God Jutsu] can hope to escape and he's responsible to send out the information, but the other people... will probably die.

"Don't worry! Lord Orochimaru and Teacher Jiraiya have thought about this, so they sent me to execute this mission. The mission to sneak into the camp and the Village was given to me. You guys only need to be responsible for vigilance and support." Minato smiled and cheered everyone up.

He had to admit that Minato Namikaze is really charismatic. This was obviously his own decision, but he forcibly pulled in the scum of Orochimaru into his words.

If everyone can return to Konoha alive after this mission, it will surely pass into Orochimaru's ears. If that happens then, when Minato and Orochimaru both compete for the Fourth Hokage position with one another, Orochimaru will hold a little admiration for him.

But it also made him feel more cautious.

Although this is normal according to how Minato is described in the Anime, Junrei would never believe that a person who can become the Fourth Hokage will not have complex machinations on his mind.

He needs to go execute the Secret Mission entrusted to him by Orochimaru, but how can he execute the mission under the eyelid of Minato without leaking a weak spot?

Junrei is almost certain that Orochimaru stopped him in front of everyone, and definitely did it for the others to see. After all, if he really wanted to give this to him as a Secret Mission, he could completely have given the scroll during their last night meeting. He didn't have to wait until the next day to do it.

Thinking of this, Junrei clenched his teeth even more.

"Captain Minato..."

"Teacher Minato..."

Sure enough, everyone was touched after hearing Minato's words. After all, he did not think of them as mere cannon fodders to be used to attract the Hidden Sand's attention, but rather thought about their lives.

"Okay, let's move on now." Minato laughed indifferently, and then said to Hyuga Keita, "I'll leave surveillance to you."

"Understood!" Keita said respectfully.

In order to ensure that the Hidden Sand Village's secret plan information can be successfully obtained at this time, Minato directly set the target at the center of the village. The entire group, under the cover of the Byakugan, quickly moved towards it.

"Less than 500 metres in front, there's a Hidden Sand Village reconnaissance team that i found." Keita jumped back a few times towards the end of the group, said tiredly, and released the Byakugan at the same time.

"Amazing Keita!" Hiding in the yellow sand, Minato showed his head and said to him in admiration.

Junrei's eyes one after another glanced over everyone's tired face, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Throughout the whole day, everyone's nerves were jumping, all of them were frustrated about it. Exhaustion is naturally unavoidable. Even a Jonin, like Minato, felt a little tired at this moment.

It's just that they are all exhausted. The difference is that Junrei is more exhausted, and they are really exhausted.

In the setting sun, half of the sky was dyed red, and the sun hung in the sky, releasing the last afterglow.

Night was about to arrive, and in the evening, Minato was bound to sneak into Sunagakure alone. Once's Minato, the Jonin, leaves, Junrei will go with a small team, Keita, Kakashi, and Ichimi Yamanaka were gonna be his team.

Junrei has some confidence in hiding from the eyes and ears of these three people and carrying out his Secret Mission.

"Can we get around?" Minato asked.

Keita shaked his head, saying, "No, it's too close to Sunagakure. There are patrols everywhere. Even with bypassing this team, we will meet another team."

"Then let's just kill them." Minato made up his mind.

The entire group stayed silently, killed the patrol team, and then quickly left.

As night fell, Junrei's entire group dug a sand hole near the enemy Village and hid. After eating dry food, Minato said to everyone: "Next I will sneak into Sunagakure to find the information. Kakashi, Obito! After 2 hours, you two will be responsible for creating chaos at the entrance of the Hidden Sand Village, Retreat after ten minutes. "

"Yes! Teacher Minato." The two responded together.

"Junrei, Keita! The two of you, after two hours passes, attack a Sand patrol and attract a patrol's attention. At least half an hour." Minato continued instructed.

"Heaven helps me!" Junrei cursed

"Yes!" Junrei and Keita accepted the orders.

"Ichimi, Rin, you both are responsible for staying here. If I can't find Sunagakure's information tonight, I will bring out a high level of Sand Shinobi, and I will rely on you at that time Ichimi." Minato Namikaze said.

"Understood!"

"Kakashi and Keita, you two are gonna be holding these two kunai, and if you are caught on problems against the enemy, I will rush to support you." Minato said while passing an special kunai each to Junrei and Kakashi.

"What is this?" Junrei asked, puzzled.

"This is the medium for my [Flying Thunder God Jutsu]. If you hold this, I can reach you in an instant." Minato said truthfully.

"Understood!" He put away the Kunai.

"Okay! Let's move on." As Minato's voice fell, his whole body disappeared with a flash.
