"That's just too much!"
"Everyone else has something to do, so why does he get to rest? Does he really think he's a big shot?"
"I'm not convinced!"
Rin Nohara rolled her eyes, "The captain is our strongest fighter. He needs to conserve his energy to deal with any potential dangers. Don't you understand that, Uchiha Obito?"
"I didn't mean it, Rin, don't be mad!" Uchiha Obito scratched the back of his head…
Rin Nohara: "Get to work!"
Although Uchiha Obito was reluctant, under Rin Nohara's suppression, he could only grudgingly start working.
Nara Kazama shook his head helplessly.
He had become immune to Uchiha Obito's unreliability.
Another unreliable Uchiha!
However.
Compared to Uchiha Jin, they were like two extremes.
Approximately twenty minutes later.
Once the aroma filled the air, Uchiha Jin gave the order, and everyone began to come in to eat.
In the hollow, beside the bonfire.
Everyone ate and chatted, easing their fatigue.
Just then, Shisui suddenly spoke.
"Jin-kun, I have a few questions."
As Shisui spoke, the others couldn't help but look over.
Uchiha Jin spoke calmly, "Shisui-nii, go ahead."
"Why did we choose to camp and rest here?" Shisui asked, full of doubt, "We're encountering more and more Iwagakure shinobi, which shows we've already penetrated deep into their territory."
"Judging by Iwagakure's patrols now, we might even be close to their main base."
"Shouldn't the most important thing for us to do right now be to leave as quickly as possible?"
"Otherwise, when the shifts change…."
"When Iwagakure discovers the dead patrol team, won't they launch a massive search, making it more likely for us to be found?"
Yes.
He had been unable to understand this point.
However.
Because Jin-kun had always been reliable, and Jin-kun was also the captain, he had kept this thought to himself.
Now that they had some free time, he naturally asked.
Kakashi Hatake also became serious upon hearing this.
Yes.
He had wanted to ask for a long time.
However, he was a traditional ninja.
Since Uchiha Jin was the captain, he would not challenge the captain's authority.
During a mission, this was a major taboo!
"Exactly!" Uchiha Obito also couldn't help but speak, "Uchiha Jin, are you reliable or not?!"
Rin Nohara had a headache.
Her teammate, Uchiha Obito, was truly a handful!
Challenging their captain like this, in any other team, who would tolerate his temper?
"Uchiha Obito, shut up!" Rin Nohara roared.
Uchiha Obito instantly became like a quail, completely intimidated.
Chapter 157: Kakashi Hatake Loses Composure, Is the Mission More Important or Are Teammates More Important?
Uchiha Jin's eyes narrowed slightly.
He was silently pondering Shisui's question.
How should he phrase his words to properly teach his clan brother?
As for Uchiha Obito?
Heh heh!
Uchiha Obito, before his descent into darkness, was just a clown.
He couldn't be bothered to deal with him.
Otherwise, such a person would only get more energized the more you engaged with him.
After a moment of contemplation, he spoke slowly.
"First, let me teach you a trick: the 'light under the lamp' effect."
"Have you ever noticed that a light bulb can illuminate an entire room, but the small area directly above the bulb remains unlit?"
"The principle is the same."
"The more dangerous a place, the safer it is."
"If you were the enemy commander and discovered that an enemy had killed a bunch of shinobi near your main base an hour or two ago…"
"Then what would you think?"
"According to normal reasoning, a unit like ours, operating deep behind enemy lines, must have an important mission."
"Would a normal ninja squad foolishly remain in the same spot?"
"No!"
"We know that, and the enemy knows that too!"
"So, under normal circumstances, when an enemy commander learns that shinobi have died here, their primary objective would be to scout forward."
"The further forward we go, the more dangerous it actually becomes!"
"Because that's the enemy's main search direction. Just imagine, if we've been on the move all day and can't get a good rest at night, will we have enough energy to continue traveling the next day?"
"You should know that even at today's speed, it will take us at least three days to reach Kannabi Bridge."
"Do you really want us to be chased by a large enemy army for the remaining three days?"
"Furthermore, even if we succeed, what capacity will we, exhausted and worn out, have to continue with the mission?"
"Of course, I don't deny it!"
"Staying here might be more dangerous, and the enemy commander might also understand the principle of doing the opposite."
"But, I am not afraid!"
"Even if a Jinchuriki intervenes, I can protect you all. At worst, the mission will fail."
"So, after comparing everything, I chose this path, as it suits our current situation."
Uchiha Jin's tone was deep.
Shisui instantly understood after hearing this.
He had to admit.
Uchiha Jin's idea was indeed very good, and it wouldn't be difficult to deceive the enemy under normal circumstances.
After all, not all ninja villages had the minds of the Nara Clan.
Only Kakashi Hatake.
After a moment of contemplation, he couldn't help but ask, "You also admit that we have a chance of failure?"
"Yes, I don't deny it!" Uchiha Jin shrugged.
Looking at Kakashi Hatake, his eyes showed a hint of surprise.
Because he seemed to have a slight guess as to what Kakashi wanted to say.
In fact, that was exactly the case.
Kakashi Hatake couldn't help but speak angrily, "We shinobi prioritize the mission. How can we abandon the mission for safety? If the mission fails, will you take responsibility?"
Uchiha Obito was stunned.
As Kakashi's friend, he understood the reason for Kakashi's anger.
