Chapter 224: Mastery-Level Fire Dragon Flame Bullet
Four Konoha ninjas had reserved one of the inn's bathhouses.
Yu Sarutobi reclined in the hot spring. At the edge of the pool stood an Ino-Shika-Cho squad.
The three Ino-Shika-Cho members wore ninja flak jackets. The Akimichi ninja gripped an iron staff, guarding Yu Sarutobi in the water.
The Nara ninja said, "Yu, let's push straight into the Land of Fire tomorrow. Once we reach the border stronghold, we'll be safe."
"Yeah," Yu Sarutobi said.
"I can't believe Sumi Shimura died in the Land of Grass. They still haven't found out who killed him.
"To dare assassinate a ninja of the Shimura clan who was about to be promoted to Jonin... When Uncle Danzo catches the killer, he will definitely hand them over to Kinoe for experimentation."
Yu Sarutobi was Hiruzen Sarutobi's blood nephew and a highly anticipated rising star within the Sarutobi clan.
He had not let his clan down; at nineteen, he was already slated for a promotion to Jonin.
