"Really? But you just looked very interested. Don't worry, if we get caught, I'll say you took me. You're older than me, so you can't shirk the responsibility."

Rinsu's heart blossomed with a smile. He directly labeled Minato a pervert. 'Let's see you run now. Even if your Minato's brain turns quickly, you'll still have to drink my foot-washing water.'

'He's been tricked!'

Minato took a deep breath, silently put away his kettle, and sat on a tree branch, looking elsewhere, as if he hadn't heard anything. If Rinsu continued to speak, he might accidentally turn lies into facts. If it got out, even if he hadn't done anything, Rinsu could make some vague explanations, and he wouldn't be able to wash himself clean even if he jumped into a lake.

Minato didn't want to go back to the village and face Kushina's interrogation. Kushina's nickname "Red-Hot Habanero" wasn't just for show. When she got angry, she was terrifying. He himself could only hide and avoid her.

"No problem, really."

As long as it involved a woman, it seemed to involve Kushina, and then Minato would back down.

Rinsu smiled, shrugging his shoulders, leaning against the tree trunk: "I truly don't like going to that ghostly place, the Land of Rain, to perform missions. The whole person turns into a drowned chicken; there's not a single dry spot on your body."

"One by one, rebels and dangerous individuals all like to run to the Land of Rain. It's poor and backward, utterly uninteresting."

"The more chaotic a place is, the easier it is for them to hide. If it weren't for Hanzō of the Salamander, the leader of Amegakure (Hidden Rain Village), being a suspicious and wary man, there would probably be even more rebellious forces fleeing to the Land of Rain."

When discussing serious topics, Minato's silence was also broken.

Many times, Rinsu felt that Minato was a very talkative person; to put it plainly, he talked too much.

"By the way, we still haven't decided who will carry the mission items, have we?"

This kind of small team mission had been carried out several times, but Rinsu had never carried the mission items himself. It was either Dan Kato or Minato. One was the team leader, and the other was a senior. How could they not do some troublesome tasks?

"You're the captain, you decide." Rinsu rarely said much, and directly replied.

Minato immediately protested: "Uchiha Rinsu, as a junior, shouldn't you listen to your senior?"

"But as a senior, shouldn't you take care of your junior?"

Rinsu stubbornly held his ground, not giving an inch.

"You sly brat."

Ultimately, Minato conceded. He rolled his eyes helplessly, accepting the fact. If it were any other newcomer, they would definitely actively take on these things, but with Rinsu, it was different. He would directly say, "Seniors shouldn't take care of juniors," making it impossible for you to get his ideas.

"It's much better this way, why bother for half a day? Alright, now we can bet, you can fly to your heart's content."

"..."

Ultimately, Minato did not use the Flying Thunder God to travel, and Rinsu also did not compete with him to be slower. The two quickly approached the border of the Land of Rain. Fortunately, traveling to the Land of Rain was much faster than to the Land of Lightning, which saved a lot of time.

It was just that the mission was a bit troublesome. Due to limited intelligence, the two needed to slowly gather information after arriving in the Land of Rain, and find the traces of the mission personnel.

"The extreme weather."

As expected, as the two approached the border of the Land of Rain, the originally clear, cloudless sky turned heavily overcast, covering the sky and blocking the sunlight. Heavy rain poured down continuously.

"Troublesome mission."

Minato muttered, following suit. At this moment, both of them had changed into very ordinary clothes, and their original clothes had been put away. Even the forehead protectors representing Konoha were put away.

The relationship between the Land of Rain and the Land of Fire was not harmonious. If the two wore Konoha ninja clothes and forehead protectors, it would only bring unnecessary trouble.

The two walked on the streets of Amegakure (Hidden Rain Village), looking at the crowds passing by on the roadside. In Konoha, you could see happy and joyful smiles on the faces of ordinary people, but here, you couldn't see any. The common people on the streets had numb expressions, without a trace of vitality, each like a puppet who had lost hope of survival.

A country so chaotic that even the basic needs of its common people were difficult to meet, the Land of Rain was considered number one. And Hanzo of the Salamander, as the leader of Amegakure, simply wouldn't care about these things.

What he cared about was the development of his village's ninja strength, whether anyone would try to assassinate him, and whether his own position would be threatened.

As for the name of the Land of Rain, it was completely a dispensable existence. Moreover, the Land of Rain's daimyo had limited financial resources and simply couldn't afford to rescue common people or develop the country.

"Grumble!!"

"Grumble!!"

Because it rained all four seasons, the architectural style of the Land of Rain and Konoha were two extremes. Most of the buildings in the Land of Fire were related to wood, but in the Land of Rain, houses were basically built with steel. Wooden houses would quickly be continuously soaked and rot by the rain.

Rain fell on the houses, constantly making crisp sounds, like music from hell, at least for the common people of the Land of Rain.

Walking on the streets filled with stagnant water, dirty and smelly, Minato had already swallowed several times.

Rinsu had been silent all along. In such an environment, people's way of life was so similar to some chaotic countries on Earth in his previous life. It was just that those countries were not constantly covered by rain, but by droughts, making it impossible to grow food. Common people even had to conserve water, which was the other extreme from here.

Droughts would lead to various crops being unable to survive. Similarly, continuous heavy rain would also make various crops unable to survive.

A country that couldn't even provide for itself, could the lives of its common people find warmth and sustenance?

Coupled with a leader whose mind was focused elsewhere, for the common people of the Land of Rain, it was even worse. Everywhere was stagnant water, foul-smelling and wide sewers, everywhere wandered listless rogues and rogue ninjas left behind by war. This was Rinsu's impression of the Land of Rain.

In addition, some rogue ninjas from various hidden villages also gathered in this area, making the already extremely chaotic Land of Rain even more chaotic.

"What are you looking for?"

Minato sensitively discovered that Rinsu seemed to be collecting some intelligence.
