Chapter Twenty-Three: Tracking and Encounter

After turning a few pages, a mission caught Hinata's attention.

"Exterminate the wandering ninjas in the land of fire extinguishing.."

A-rank missions all involve battles between ninjas, so there are three principles for Hinata's selection of missions.

First, the distance should be close, because if the mission location is too far, accidents are prone to occur on the road, after all, the war has just ended, and the world is still very chaotic.

Second, the strength of the enemy must not be too strong.

Third, the background of the enemy should be simple, and there should be no messy grudges because of the mission.

Therefore, the task of eradicating the wandering ninjas in the country of extinguishing the fire perfectly conforms to the three principles of the Hinata Mirror in selecting tasks, so it makes his eyes shine.

Handing the task list to Kai, Hinata pointed at the task of exterminating the wandering ninja and asked, "How about this mission?" ”

Kai replied, "I have no objection! ”

After receiving the task, the two of them did not delay and set off immediately.

On the way, Hinata and Kai analyze the detailed information they had received from the mission center about the mission.

The mission was entrusted by the Daimyo of the Fire Country, and a group of wandering ninjas recently attacked several Fire Country villages near the border of the Land of Waves, causing a large amount of loss of people and property.

Intelligence shows that there are five to seven wandering ninjas in this group, and their identities are suspected to be misty rebel ninjas, with good strength and cruel methods.

Because of the war, the number of ninjas who defected increased year by year, and there were all major ninja villages, and Konoha was no exception, but most of these renegades who escaped the war were entrenched in small countries without ninja villages, and it was rare for a renegade to dare to attack the country of fire so blatantly.

Hinata instructed: "The other party dares to plunder in the Land of Fire, the strength is definitely not weak, don't be careless!" ”

Kai nodded hurriedly.

Seeing that Kai seemed to be a little nervous, Hinata Mirror thought about it and said: "Don't be too nervous, these traitors who only dare to do things to civilians may not be very strong, as long as we play normally, there should be no problem in completing the task." ”

Kai clenched his fists: "I'm not afraid of them!" ”

A few days later.

Hinata and Kai chase all the way to a village that has just been attacked.

The village was in shambles, corpses littered, the air was filled with the smell of blood, and wails and weepings were incessant.

Hinata Kagami came to one of the survivors and asked, "We are ninjas sent by Konoha, please tell us, who attacked you?" ”

The survivor's expression was a little blank, he looked at the Hyuga mirror in a daze, and replied in a half-loud voice: "I don't know who those people are, they kill people when they see them, and they leave after killing." ”

Hinata was not affected by the tragic situation in the village, and calmly asked, "How many people are there in total?" When did you leave? In what direction? ”

The survivor pointed in a direction: "They went in that direction!" I... I don't know how many of them there were, and I don't know when they left. ”

Hinata looked intently at the direction the survivor was pointing, and then said coldly: "Let's chase!" ”

Kai, who was already indignant, nodded fiercely: "Hmm! ”

In the Hyuga clan, tracking is a basic course, and every Hyuga clan who has been on the battlefield is a master of tracking, and the Hyuga mirror is naturally no exception, so he quickly found the traces left by the other party.

Moments later, the two landed in front of a quagmire.

After checking the footprints in the quagmire, Hinata said, "There are five to seven people on the other side, and the pace is a little messy, and it seems that they are in a hurry. ”

Kai hurriedly said: "Then what are you waiting for, let's chase quickly!" ”

Hinata shook her head and pointed to a big tree not far away: "Don't panic yet, look at the moss on that tree!" ”

Kai looked over and saw half a blurred footprint on the moss, and wondered, "How can there be footprints there?" Could it be that someone else is following this group of wandering ninjas? ”

The footprints on the tree not far away obviously did not belong to the same group of people as the footprints in the quagmire, and if the footprints in the quagmire belonged to the group of wandering ninjas, then the footprints on the tree should be another group of ninjas.

"Now that we've taken over the mission, the village shouldn't send anyone else, so I suspect that the other group of wandering ninjas should be the people of the Fog Hide."

Hinata's speculation is not unfounded, because according to intelligence, this group of wandering ninjas is a traitor to the fog, so it is reasonable for the fog to send a pursuit force.

When it comes to other ninja villages, Kai is at a loss for a moment: "Then what should we do?" ”

Hinata pondered for a moment, and then said firmly: "Everything that hinders us from completing the task is the enemy!" ”

"But..."

"No, let's keep chasing."

After chasing for a while, Hinata Kagami and Kai had to stop because two ninjas were facing each other in front of them.

There are four people on one side, all dressed as the Fog Hidden Assassination Force, only the leader does not wear a mask, but wraps the lower half of his face with a bandage, and according to his body shape and appearance, Hinata Mirror recognizes him as Momochi, who seems to be known as the 'ghost man'.

There are only two people on the other side of the confrontation, it is the dark part of Konoha, one of them is not large, with white hair, although he is wearing a fox mask, Hinata still recognizes him as a genius ninja at the same time as himself, Kakashi Hagi.

The two sides are full of gunpowder, and it seems that a fight will break out at any time.

And seeing that another Konoha ninja arrived, he pulled out the long knife behind him without cutting it, looking like he was going to do it.

Standing on the branch of the tree, Hinata Mirror crossed his waist with one hand, condescendingly glanced at the ninjas of the assassination unit, looked arrogant, and said contemptuously: "Get out!" ”

If you don't hear this, you will be furious: "Are you looking for death, boy!" ”

Hinata didn't pay attention to it anymore, but lightly ordered: "Kai, go and teach him a lesson." ”

Along the way, Kai had long been accustomed to obeying Hinata Mirror's orders, not to mention that the other party was a ninja of the fog, so after agreeing, he shouted and rushed to Zaibu.

It seems that he didn't expect Hyuga Mirror to be so arrogant, and the Fog Hidden Assassination Force and the Konoha Shadow Department were taken aback, but both sides were apprehensive and didn't make a move immediately, just let go of an area, and let the two of them fight one-on-one.

As a physical ninja, Kai is a close attack as soon as he comes up, and does not give the enemy a chance to perform ninjutsu.

Zai Bu seems to be very confident in his sword skills, and he is not afraid of physical warfare at all, and he is a ball with Kai when he swings his sword.

For a while, the fist wind gusted, and the knife light flashed!

At this time, he is already well-known in the fog hide, although he has not yet been promoted to the ninja sword seven, but he is also the best among the fog hides peers, his moves are sharp and murderous!

Kai is also in a period of rapid growth in strength, and his speed and strength are increasing dramatically every day, and he is no longer the tail of the crane in the school.

The battle between the two of them began to heat up, spreading more and more, causing the onlookers of the Mist Hidden Ninja and Konoha Shadow to retreat some distance back.

Not long after, Kai kicked the knife face that no longer slashed, and the two of them each jumped backwards, disengaged from contact...
