The Assignment Office building has a total of three floors, with the first floor for Class C and D missions, the second floor for Class B missions, and the third floor for Class A missions.

The task assigners on the second floor are all middle ninjas, all wearing formal ninja vests, sitting upright, and the atmosphere is obviously different from that of the first floor.

Mumu Nagaye led the three of them to line up, and it was their turn in a short time.

After taking the documents of the four people, the task assignee flipped through the task book: "B-level survey mission, go to the designated location in the Land of Rain to conduct a topographical survey, clear possible traps and ninjas in the Land of Wind, and report the survey results to the Hokage Building, if you encounter ninjas outside the Land of Wind, try to avoid conflicts." ”

"The time limit is 10 days, and the remuneration is 138,000 taels, do you accept it?"

Mumu Changye thought for a moment: "Accept." ”

After completing the formalities, Group IX left the Assignment Office.

When he was at the door, Mumu Nagaye said to the three of them: "Go back and prepare today, we will meet at the west gate at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and then we will set off for the land of rain." ”

"Yes."

When they went back to their respective homes, they didn't know that Huo Xuanma found a nearby restaurant to eat, and then came to Mandiantang.

In the Charmer's workshop, the atmosphere of tension and busyness is blowing in the face, and everyone is drawing all kinds of charms at full speed, meticulously.

As war approached, so did the need for spells. Not only are the prices of various charms rising, but the Hokage Building has also issued corresponding quantitative indicators, so the talismans naturally can't stop for a moment.

As a junior talisman maker of Mandiantang, of course, Genma has also been assigned a spell indicator, but he has been busy with tasks recently, and the indicator is just about to be completed.

Now that he was going on a mission to the Land of Rain, he would definitely not have time to draw spells for at least the next six or seven days, so he had to take a leave of absence.

"Knock knock."

knocked on the door of Ape Feiyan, and I didn't know that Huo Xuanma couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart.

"Come in."

I don't know that Huo Xuanjian pushed the door in, and Ape Feiyan buried his head in drawing talismans, and said, "It's Xuanjian, what's the matter?" ”

"Hmm...... Teacher, my team has taken on a B-level mission, which is to go to the Land of Rain to survey the terrain for ten days, so ......"

I didn't know that Huo Xuanjian hadn't finished speaking, Ape Feiyan's hand shook, and the spell he was drawing was immediately invalidated.

Putting the talisman pen on the table, Ape Feiyan raised his head and let out a sigh through his nose: "So, you're not going to be a talisman maker?" ”

"No, I ...... teacher"

Ape Feiyan raised his hand to interrupt him, then pulled a chair and sat down in front of him, asking, "Do you know what the situation is now?" ”

"The war is about to start, not to mention A-level missions, B-level missions, and even C-level missions may be killed." Ape Feiyan's tone was a little anxious and said, "You are a talisman maker, as long as you want, you can completely withdraw from the group of ordinary ninjas, and you don't have to go to the task anymore." ”

"Unless it gets to the point where even the Hokage is going into battle, you won't be in any danger to your life. And now that the price of the talisman has risen so much, staying in the shop to draw talismans, a junior talisman maker, there are still three or five hundred thousand taels per month. ”

I didn't know that Huo Genma was about to say, but Ape Feiyan raised his hand again and interrupted: "If you don't do such a stable errand, do you have to take on a B-level mission and take risks?" You're only eleven and a half years old, what do you think? ”

"Huh?" He added one more syllable.

"......" Shiranui Genma lowered his head, "Sensei, although I also recognize my identity as a talisman maker, I also can't give up my ninja career. ”

"I felt like I could finally get to a level that most ninjas couldn't reach, so I quit the ninja group at the age of eleven...... I can't. ”

Ape Feiyan tapped his index finger on the table, waved his hand again, and said a little angrily: "Almost all ninjas think so from you, but they are not dead or crippled!" Among these people, there are more talents than you, and they are also ...... It's not for nothing! ”

"Your father has already done it once, and the lesson is in front of you, you can't repeat it."

Ignorant Huo Genma was silent for a moment: "Teacher, I want to ask you a few questions." ”

"What's the problem?"

"What happened to the teacher's teacher?"

Hearing this question, Ape Feiyan was also silent, and only after a moment did he say, "Die in battle." ”

"The second Hokage and all the shadows of the five great powers that have passed away, what is the main cause of death?"

“…… Die. Ape Feiyan's tone couldn't help but weaken, and he said with a gloomy face.

Shiranhuo Xuan said indirectly: "The ninja school has already told people that it is impossible for ninjas to avoid war, and although talisman makers are different from ordinary ninjas, they are also ninjas after all. Since it is a ninja, there is no immunity from war. ”

"Even if I just want to draw the talisman with peace of mind, the situation may not allow it. In that case, what's the point of running away? ”

After a pause, he didn't know Huo Genma and said, "Moreover, isn't the talisman maker's income from the war?" If the world were peaceful, the talisman maker's life would not only not be stable, but would be destitute. ”

"......" Ape Feiyan didn't know how to refute.

"Ugh." The room was quiet for a long time, and he finally let out a long sigh and shook his head.

"Aiba is right, in the world of ninjas, the first-class genius always belongs to war."

"Forget it."

Ape Feiyan continued: "I won't force you anymore, if you want to participate in the war, just go, just remember to bring your life back." ”

"Thank you, teacher." I don't know that Huo Xuanjian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and bowed down.

Ape Feiyan waved his hand, stopped talking, turned around and continued to draw.

I didn't know that Huo Xuanma hesitated for a moment, then went downstairs and went out, leaving the Mandian Hall.

Unexpectedly, just a few steps out of the hall, an object was thrown down from the window on the second floor and went straight to the top of his head.

I didn't know that Huo Xuanma hurriedly dodged to catch it, and when he looked down, it turned out to be a small leather bag.

I opened the leather bag and found that there were a bunch of charms neatly placed inside, and the word "explosion" was written in the middle of each charm, but this "explosion" was much smaller than the general detonation charm, and the runes around it were also very complicated.

"It's ...... Compound Detonator! I didn't know that Huo Genma blinked and exclaimed.

This bag contains no less than 100 compound detonators. He knew the price of the compound detonation charm, and at this time, one would cost 100,000 taels or even higher.

Hundreds of compound detonation charms, worth no less than 10 million.

He looked up and saw that the upstairs window was already closed, leaving only one sentence: "Be careful when you use it." ”

"Bang."

The window closed, and the figure of Ape Feiyan naturally disappeared.

I don't know that Huo Xuanma's heart couldn't help but feel a wave of emotion, and he bowed to the window again, before turning around and leaving with the compound detonation charm.

At nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, near the west gate of Konoha Village, the ninth group of four people gathered.

Kime Nagaye nodded and looked at the west outside the gate:

"Okay, target rain country, let's go!"
