Lord Hokage's voice slowly dissipated in their minds, but the shock lingered like a sound that wouldn't fade.
Second Great Ninja War, Land of Rain frontline camp.
The commander was one of the legendary Sannin, Lord Jiraiya.
Each of these keywords was like a heavy bomb exploding in the hearts of the four members of Team Yagen.
"My goodness... did we... just travel back into a history book?"
Shimura Sota lowered his voice, but the excitement in his tone couldn't be hidden.
His eyes were wide open, curiously looking at the hurried "NPC" ninja around him, feeling like he was visiting a super-large theme park.
"Sota!"
Uchiha Yagen immediately scolded in a low voice, "Remember Lord Hokage's words, this is a real battlefield! Put away that expression like you're going on a picnic!"
"Oh... oh!"
Sota shrank his neck, quickly restrained the smile on his face, and imitated the captain, putting on a serious and vigilant expression.
But his rolling eyes still betrayed his inner excitement.
Tachibana Shiorin followed at the end of the team, her feelings the most complex.
On one hand, there was the fear of this terrifyingly real battlefield; on the other hand, as a medical ninja, she was deeply attracted by everything here.
She saw a passing medical ninja with several dark red bloodstains on the medical bag on his back.
From a professional perspective, the color and coagulation of those bloodstains indicated they were left at least five hours ago, and the amount of blood loss was significant.
She could even smell the mixture of hemostatic herbs and alcohol emanating from the medical ninja.
All these details were so real that Shiorin felt a wave of panic.
This was no longer simple genjutsu; it was simply... creating a world.
"How on earth did Lord Hokage and Teacher Shinku do this..."
Shiorin murmured in her heart, feeling heartfelt awe for the unfathomable methods of Konoha's higher-ups.
Walking in the middle, Sarutobi Hasumi seemed much calmer.
He didn't look around like Sota, nor was he attracted by details like Shiorin.
Hasumi crouched down and picked up a pinch of mud from under his feet again.
"Captain, look."
He held the mud in front of Yagen. "The soil here is very sticky and has a high water content. In this environment, the power of Earth Release ninjutsu will be greatly reduced, but the power of Water Release ninjutsu will be greatly enhanced."
The boy stood up and pointed to the gray clouds in the sky.
"Moreover, I just sensed that the water vapor in the air is unusually dense, which will seriously affect the burning efficiency of Fire Release. Our combination technique, Fire Tornado, will probably be difficult to unleash its full power here."
"Also, listen."
Hasumi closed his eyes and listened intently. "The sound of rain, the sound of wind... these sounds mixed together will interfere with our auditory judgment. In this environment, the difficulty of reconnaissance methods relying on sound will increase significantly."
A calm and professional analysis instantly calmed down the still somewhat excited Sota.
Yes, their training in the Ninja Academy before was all conducted in sunny training grounds.
When had they ever thought that a simple rainy day would also affect combat?
"As expected of the Calm Navigator, Hasumi."
Sota said with some admiration, "I was just excited and didn't think about all this at all."
"This is basic knowledge."
Hasumi adjusted his forehead protector, which was tilted to the left, and said calmly, "Lord Hokage said that an excellent ninja must complete a comprehensive analysis of the timing, geographical advantage, and human harmony immediately upon stepping onto the battlefield, and then formulate the tactic most beneficial to oneself."
Yagen nodded approvingly.
This was exactly what he valued most about Hasumi.
Although he was not as explosive as himself and Sota in ninjutsu, he was the core of the entire squad in terms of tactical mind and insight into details.
With awe and nervousness, the four of them walked through this history that seemed alive.
They walked carefully with every step, afraid of disturbing this era that did not belong to them.
Around them, the conversations of the "NPC" ninja clearly reached their ears.
"Damn it, this ghost weather, my arthritis is acting up again, it hurts like hell."
A slightly older chunin rubbed his knee while complaining to his companion beside him.
"Be content, it's good enough that you came back alive."
His companion patted his shoulder and sighed. "Yesterday, Squad B went on reconnaissance, and only one came back alive. I heard they encountered Sunagakure's puppet master. That guy can control a dozen puppets alone, like a monster."
"Hahahaha—"
"Last night... Lord Jiraiya... was punched by Lady Tsunade from the east end of the camp to the west end..."
These conversations, full of life and battlefield realism, left the four members of Team Yagen dumbfounded.
