Chapter 115: What Is a Punching Bag?

At the end of the 46th year of Konoha, Konoha Village and Kirigakure Village reached a preliminary ceasefire agreement, and both sides withdrew half of their troops to show their sincerity.

Although everyone on the Konoha side felt that the war would end soon, after all, the Kirigakure Village's envoy team had not yet arrived at Konoha Village, and the two sides had not yet officially signed a peace agreement, so both sides still maintained some military forces in the eastern part of the Land of Fire.

For the Kirigakure Village, withdrawing from the Land of Fire was an important bargaining chip in their negotiations with Konoha Village, so it was impossible for Kirigakure to withdraw everyone back to the Land of Water. To withdraw back to the Land of Water, they could only wait until the peace agreement was officially signed.

Konoha naturally knew what the Kirigakure Village was thinking. Although they felt that the war could not be fought again, they still left a considerable number of people to guard against the Kirigakure ninjas on the opposite side. As long as the war was not over, anything could happen.

In the specific arrangements for Konoha's withdrawal and return to Konoha, the first 5,000 Konoha ninjas will be divided into three batches and return to Konoha one after another. As for the remaining Konoha ninjas, they will have to wait until the opposite Kirigakure ninjas withdraw from the Land of Fire before returning to Konoha.

Among the first three batches of ninjas, many were students of the ninja school who graduated early to join the war due to the urgency of the war. Now that the war is about to end, they naturally became the first batch of candidates to return to the village. According to Minato, the future of the village should not appear on the battlefield. And the Kai class and the Kakashi class are also the third batch of ninjas to return to Konoha Village.

After learning that they could return to Konoha in advance, everyone smiled. The war has been going on for so long, and now it can finally end and return to the village.

The Yamanaka Hai class was originally the third batch of candidates to return to Konoha, but Liu Yu refused the arrangement to return to Konoha in advance because of his uneasiness, and planned to continue to stay in the front-line camp that was in confrontation with the Kirigakure Village.

The reason for Liu Yu's refusal was that it would be difficult to come out after returning to the village, so he wanted to stay outside for a while now, anyway, the war was about to end, and there was no danger.

When Liu Yu applied to stay in the front camp, Asuma and Hong, who learned the news, also applied to stay for the same reason.

Yamanaka Inoichi thought about it and felt that it was no big deal, so he agreed to Liu Yu's request to stay in the camp.

Asuma and the other three have now been promoted to Chunin. After the war is over, if there is no special situation in the future, they will basically not team up to perform tasks together.

Besides, I will help Liu Yu submit the application for Jonin when I go back this time. If Liu Yu becomes a Jonin, she will lead the team to perform tasks independently in the future. Now while there is still time, it is also a good choice to let the three of them stay together for a while.

The next morning, it was dawn and the morning fog had not yet dissipated, but the Konoha camp was already bustling at this moment. Today, the third batch of Konoha ninjas will set off to return to Konoha. Under the temptation of returning to the village after victory, everyone seemed full of energy.

"Lord Orochimaru, I'll leave the children to you!"

In front of the camp gate, Minato Namikaze said sincerely to Orochimaru at the front of the team. Although Minato Namikaze, as the fourth generation Hokage, is now higher than Orochimaru in status, he still maintains due respect for his uncle.

"Yes!"

Orochimaru hummed lightly, indicating that he knew. Although he lost in the competition for the fourth generation Hokage, Orochimaru had to admit that Minato Namikaze was indeed a qualified Hokage.

"Let's go!"

Looking at the Konoha ninjas in front of him, Orochimaru shouted hoarsely, and the third batch of Konoha ninjas finally returned.

"Is it really over?"

Looking at Lin and Kakashi who were constantly going away in the team, Liu Yu couldn't help asking himself again. If Lin returned to Konoha with the team smoothly this time, it would be difficult for Uchiha Madara to find the opportunity to make Obito fall into darkness.

In the past few days, all Liu Yu could do was wait. Konoha Village and Kirigakure Village have reached a preliminary ceasefire agreement, so apart from the necessary alert missions, there are not many missions to perform.

Because the number of missions has been drastically reduced, many Konoha ninjas in the camp have been idle. After all, this is not a village, and there are not many entertainment venues, so many people go to the training ground to practice when they have nothing to do.

The idle Liu Yu and his three companions have also been running to the training ground these days, causing the temporary training ground, which was originally empty in the past two days, to be much busier these two days.

On the training ground, two figures collided at high speed and then dispersed at high speed, leaving a trail of afterimages. They were Asuma and Liu Yu who were practicing.

"Good"

"The flaw is revealed, now, hurry up"

"That's it"

"Beautiful"

Outside the field, loud shouts were heard from time to time. Unconsciously, a large number of spectators gathered outside the field. Now that there is nothing to do, appreciating the sparring of two ninjas has become a good choice to kill time.

Asuma and Liuyu on the field didn't pay attention to the encouragement and advice from the surroundings from time to time. In their eyes, there was only the existence of each other.

Seeing Liuyu's serious face, Asuma seemed to want to cry but had no tears. I don't know why, when I practiced with Liuyu these days, Liuyu was particularly ruthless, and it hurt me so much that I couldn't sleep well every night.

Sometimes I felt that I would lose if I exposed my flaws, but Liuyu always ignored my flaws and insisted on fighting with me. Asuma could see that Liuyu just wanted to beat me up to vent her anger.

"I didn't provoke her these days?"

Looking at Liu Yu standing opposite, Asuma thought carefully about what he had done in the past few days, and couldn't help but ask himself in confusion. He really didn't do anything bad to provoke Liu Yu in the past few days.

Asuma guessed correctly. Liu Yu did deliberately ignore his flaws in the sparring in the past few days, and deliberately entered a tug-of-war, wanting to beat him to vent his anger.

Because he was worried about the conspiracy that the Hidden Mist Village or Uchiha Madara might use, Liu Yu always seemed particularly irritable in the past few days, but he had to pretend to be normal in front of everyone, which made Liu Yu full of anger.

Therefore, in the training ground, when sparring with Asuma, Liu Yu always used ruthless hands to express the depression in his heart. In these sparring, Liu Yu rarely used ninjutsu, and always relied on his physical advantage to greet Asuma.

In the sparring in the past few days, Asuma was not the only one who fought against Liu Yu. But Hong was such a delicate little girl, Liu Yu couldn't bear to be ruthless. As for the others, Liu Yu was not familiar with them. Therefore, the burden of being beaten fell on Asuma's shoulders.

If Matt was still alive and proposed a "youth duel" to Liu Yu, Liu Yu would not refuse. Akai is much more resistant to beating than Asuma.
