Chapter XVIII Execution of Tasks
After we pass the assessment, our team can officially accept the mission assigned by the Ninja Village. Unlike the original book, there is no D-class mission, and the current Hokage world is far less peaceful than in the original book, the big countries seem to be peaceful, and there are constant wars between small countries, and behind every small country in the war there is the shadow of a big country. There are a lot of quests, and the lowest of them is the C-level quest.
Our group went on C-class missions for a month, almost all of them to escort the caravan for short distances. On this day, we gathered in front of the gate of the Hokage's office building, ready to take on the next mission.
At this time, Kai said reluctantly: "Dad, can you perform C-level or above tasks, it's boring to be a C-level task every day." ”
"Stinky boy, call the teacher, you can call me dad at home."
"Got it, teacher, apply to Hokage-sama, let's go out on a B-level mission."
"Do you think that when you become a shinobi wing, you will be hard? You're still far from it, and you still need to go through the experience. ”
Kai said with a look of indignation: "We have been training for a long time, and our strength is very strong. ”
"A bunch of stinky imps who don't know how thick the sky is."
After that, we came to the Hokage's office, and the three generations of Hokage were sitting behind their desks, and the three generations still had black hair at this time. The three generations of Hokage were busy, looking down at the papers, and stopped what they were doing when they saw us coming in. said: "Dai, I came to you today and I need you to perform a B-level mission, and now there are not enough people in the village, so I need to temporarily assign you to carry it out." ”
"Hokage-sama, but my team members are all recent graduates, and their abilities are not good enough."
At this time, Kai hurriedly said: "No, we can, let's go." ”
"Don't interject." Wearing a hand knife, he punched a large bag out of Kai's head.
The three generations of Hokage rubbed his temples and said: "Now the situation is extraordinary, maybe you have also heard, now there is constant friction between several major powers, and now our task volume has suddenly risen, it is all the other four great ninja villages to test our temptation, they frantically entrusted us to carry out the mission, to test our strength, in order to deter them, we can only accept them all." ”
Standing on the sidelines, I realized that there was still this layer of relationship, and it seemed that the relationship between countries was very complicated, and what I had come into contact with was only the tip of the iceberg.
After hearing the words of the three generations of Hokage, Mr. Dai said, "Okay, we will take this mission, but once the mission changes or threatens the lives of my team members, I will give up the mission." ”
"I agree," the third Hokage nodded.
"Yay!" Kai shouted from the side.
After that, we went to find the client, who was a middle-aged uncle, dressed to look relatively wealthy, and had a mouthful of gold teeth. When the client saw us coming, he said, "You are the ninja who protects me, I am your client, my name is Ito Kyo, and the reason why I want to ask you to come to commission today is that I want you to successfully escort me to the border of the land of water, and when I get there, the mist ninja hired by my family will continue to escort me." ”
Teacher Dai said: "Hello, my name is Maite Dai, I am the team leader of this mission, may I ask Mr. Jing, who are your enemies, or who may attack us along the way." ”
"I don't have many enemies, they are all underworlds, but they are all in the land of water, and the main problem now is some robbers on the road. So keep me safe from robbers. ”
"Okay, they're all my teammates, Hideo Sanada, Maitkai, and Reirin Uchiha, and we'll definitely protect you to reach the Land of Water safely."
"Then I have you to lose."
After that, we started the mission, and after leaving the Konoha Ninja Village, Kai was burning with fighting spirit, hoping that the enemy would come soon, and then beat the enemy to the ground.
But it backfired, and the road was calm and there were no robbers. Kai was bored all the way, but I'm very nervous now, and the calmer I seem to be, the more I feel that something is wrong, but I can't tell how it is wrong.
A week later, we arrived at the border of the Water Country, and due to our position, we could not enter the Water Country, so we waited next to the Water Country border.
The group waited for a day and did not wait for the ninja of the Fog Ninja Village, at this time Teacher Dai spoke: "Hello, Mr. Jing, we have been waiting here for a day, if you don't see your family to pick you up, we can only escort you to the nearest Fire Country Pass to complete this mission for your safety." ”
"How can you do this, do you leave me alone in such a dangerous place? I'm going to complain about you. ”
"Mr. Jing, we have completed the task of sending you here safely as requested, and if your relatives do not arrive in time as scheduled, we have the right to send you to the nearest pass of the Fire Country."
"Hmph, you wouldn't be able to complete the task without my signature."
"Mr. Jing, when the time comes, the signature of the Fire Nation Pass will prove it for us."
"Hmph, I won't go back with you, if you don't send me away, I'll go by myself." After saying that, Itokyo walked towards the territory of the Land of Water.
"Teacher Dai, should we chase him back? In this way, if something happens to him, it will be a loss of honor for us Konoha. ”
Teacher Dai had some hesitation at this time, if Ito Kyo was allowed to go on, in case he was in danger, it would be a big loss for Konoha, and if he crossed the border to chase him, if he was discovered by the Land of Water, it would lead to a major political diplomacy.
Just when Mr. Dai hesitated, Ito Kyo walked away and disappeared into the distant road. That's when we suddenly heard Itokyo shouting, "Help! ”
There is no time for us to think, and human lives are at stake. We had no choice but to rush over immediately. When we arrived at the scene, we only found some blood stains on the ground, and I didn't see Ito-kyo either, so we jumped up a tree and searched for it from a high place.
We searched around for a long time but didn't see Ito-kyo, and my anxiety grew stronger.
At that moment, a shuriken burst out of the air and shot past me, and I pulled out my shinobi sword to block it.
Teacher Dai shouted at this time: "There is an enemy attack! Disperse. ”
We quickly spread out of formation, and at this point I could feel at least four people moving quickly towards us.
Soon we were surrounded by each other, and a ninja wearing a mist ninja forehead guard on the other side walked out and said, "Konoha ninjas, you trespass on our territory and surrender quickly, otherwise don't blame us for killing!" ”
