Chapter 18: A-Class Missions
Even a powerhouse of Orochimaru's level is interested in secret techniques, and if Hinata Mirror wants to say that he is not interested, he is undoubtedly deceiving himself, so he said bluntly: "Then what do you need me to do for you?" ”
Orochimaru said with some unsatisfactory answers: "What do you think of Uchiha Itachi?" ”
Hinata Kagami didn't hesitate: "Unlike many so-called geniuses, he is a real genius!" Maybe in just three or five years, he will be able to grow to a point where he can't reach it. ”
Taking out a scroll from his bosom and throwing it to the Hinata Mirror, Orochimaru said, "Help me keep an eye on him more, I'm interested in this Uchiha." ”
With that, Orochimaru's figure disappeared into the shadows, as if it had never appeared.
Holding the arcane scroll thrown by Orochimaru, Hinata Mirror thought in his heart: "What Orochimaru covets, is Itachi's writing wheel eye or Itachi's body?" ”
Itachi's excellence is undoubted, and even three generations have praised him in public, but Hinata Mirror is a little unsure of what Orochimaru's so-called 'pay more attention' means.
Returning to the campsite, Hinata found Itachi writing and drawing in the small book he was carrying, so he casually asked, "What are you writing?" ”
Itachi replied earnestly, "I'm keeping a mission log." ”
According to the rules of the village, all ninjas who perform tasks must keep a mission log, and when they return to the village to hand over the mission, the mission log will be kept as an archive and sealed in the archive of the mission center.
But the rules are the rules, and in fact, there are very few ninjas who are willing to keep a mission log in every detail.
Most ninjas, such as Hinata, simply dictate the mission when handing over the mission, and then the staff of the mission center record it on the spot, and finally store it in the archive.
Hinata Kagami sighed with emotion: "Itachi, you are the most meticulous and serious ninja I have ever met, although you are not very old, you are meticulous in what you do. ”
Closing the notebook, Itachi replied, "I just want to learn more from my seniors." ”
Hinata shook her head and smiled, not saying anything more.
After that, the journey back was smooth, and unlike the grinding and grinding when they came, Hinatagami and Itachi, who were on the way at full speed in the style of a ninja, only took a week to return to the village.
After submitting the mission log in the mission center, the mission center immediately raised the difficulty level of the mission from B to A!
As for the reason, it is because this mission involves Yunyin Village, which is the same as Konoha Village, and the other party also dispatched the two-tailed man Zhuli Yukiren, and his escort team.
The human pillar force can often be regarded as the strongest combat power below the shadow in the ninja village, and it is the pillar of a ninja village, so if you encounter such a tricky character in the mission, and you can successfully complete the commission, according to the convention, the task center will raise the first-level task evaluation as appropriate.
Of course, the bounties given to Hinata and Itachi are still the standard for B-class missions, but they both have an extra record of completing A-class missions on their resumes.
Completing an A-level mission is very rare for Nakashinobi, not to mention Itachi who has not yet graduated, so Itachi who walked out of the mission center was very happy.
Looking at Itachi's smiling face, Hinata Kagami sighed with emotion: "Only now, can I really look like a child." ”
At this time, Itachi bowed deeply to the Hyuga Mirror and said sincerely: "Senior, thank you for your guidance, I learned a lot in this mission, you are a real Konoha ninja!" ”
Hinata smiled, "I don't remember what I taught you. ”
Itachi replied, "It's true that you are not a talkative person, but you have taught me a lot with your actions, especially when encountering the two-tailed pillar force, you have made me understand the perseverance that a Konoha ninja should have!" ”
Hinata was stunned when she heard this, and immediately asked, "Don't you think I was embarrassed at the time?" ”
Itachi shook his head.
Hinata raised the corners of her mouth: "Then do you know why I can remain calm in the face of Yun Shinobi's humiliation?" ”
Itachi thought seriously for a while, and replied tentatively, "Because anger interferes with judgment, ninjas shouldn't be angry?" ”
"No...", waving his hand, Hinata Mirror smiled mysteriously: "It's because the thought of eating deflated with Uchiha Itachi suddenly makes my mood feel a lot better!" ”
Itachi was joking with him, so he chatted a few words and left.
Looking at Itachi's departing figure, Hinata Mirror sighed softly.
I have to say that the Uchiha clan is indeed an outlier, they are too easy to go to extremes, narrow-minded as soil, and want to destroy the world for the sake of a crush. Fraternity is like a weasel, in order to avoid the destruction of life, he can kill his parents and relatives with his own hands.
If it's just an extreme ideology, there are more such people in the world.
But the Uchiha are different, the more extreme they are, the stronger their pupil power becomes, and once they evolve into kaleidoscope writing wheels, these people have both the motivation to put their extreme ideas into practice and the strength to realize them.
Just thinking about it makes me shudder.
In the Hokage's office.
The third generation of Hokage Ape Hitobi was holding a pipe in his mouth, looking at the document in his hand.
Suddenly, Miyo asked the Hokage assistant beside him, "The kid from the Uchiha family just completed an A-rank mission?" ”
Because the village has now launched a full monitoring of the Uchiha clan, as soon as Itachi has completed the task on the front foot, the back foot document has been transmitted to the Hokage's office.
The assistant replied: "Yes, it was originally a B-level commission, but Yun Yin was involved in the mission, and the other party also dispatched the two-tailed man Pillar Force Yuki, so the mission center raised the task evaluation and upgraded the B-level to A-level." ”
The third generation looked at the mission record and said, "This Hyuga mirror is related to Orochimaru?" ”
The assistant replied: "Yes, during the war, Orochimaru arranged him from the front line to the field hospital through his own connections, and served as a hospital guard for a period of time. He doesn't know how to use medical ninjutsu, but he is proficient in wound bandaging, and his reputation in the medical class is not bad, except for being too close to Orochimaru, there are no other stains. ”
The third generation took out the personal file of the Hyuga mirror again, swept his eyes, and then frowned: "His cleaning has already been carried out?" ”
The assistant replied, "Yes, the root carried out a purge on him, but due to the encounter with an unknown wandering ninja, the purge failed, and the root ninja Mitsui who accompanied him was killed. ”
The three generations frowned a little tighter: "Unidentified wandering ninjas? Can you confirm it? ”
The assistant replied: "There is also news from the Sand Hide, and the assassination team they were responsible for the purge operation has also been wiped out, but the news they passed from is a little vague, it seems that they know who the murderer is, but they don't want to tell us, so the intelligence team analyzes that this so-called wandering ninja is likely to be a traitor from the Sand Hide." ”
Only then did the third generation's brows stretch: "Since you can be sure that it was not made by the Hyuga mirror, then observe it for a while, and if there is no abnormality, cross him off the cleaning list." ”
With Orochimaru's defection, and the Nine-Tails Rebellion that followed, the village successively lost Orochimaru, the four generations of Hokage, and the Nine-Tails Pillar Force, the three shadow-level combat powers, as well as a large number of ninjas, which can be described as a great loss of vitality.
And according to the news sent back by the spies lurking in several other major ninja villages, these ninja villages seemed to be plotting something together after learning that Konoha had been hit hard, and they were all a little ready to move.
Coupled with the problems of the Uchiha clan within the village, the three generations of internal and external difficulties are already a little tired of coping, so the purge proposed by Danzang has been stopped by him indefinitely.
