In the dim corridor, two crisp footsteps with different rhythms slowly sounded, and then dissolved into a subtle aftersound in the corridor.

This is the basement of the Hokage Building, and it is also the headquarters of the Shadow Division.

Kuruki Mitsuki followed behind Orochimaru in silence, his eyes flickering in his surroundings.

If Orochimaru hadn't told him for sure, it would have been hard for him to imagine that this kind of place that was so quiet that he couldn't see a single figure could be the headquarters of the Dark Division, even if most of the Dark Divisions went out on missions, it wouldn't be so deserted.

After that, Orochimaru's words dispelled his doubts, according to him, this is not the owner of the Shadow Ministry, although it is called the headquarters, it does not mean that it is the most important foundation of the Shadow Ministry, the training base and some important facilities are not here, the reason why the headquarters is located here is just to make it more convenient for the Hokage's orders to be conveyed to the Shadow Department.

In addition to the Minister of Darkness, and some members of the Dark Army who are often rotated here as the force to protect the Hokage secretly, they will not be stationed in too many Shadow Departments, and their more important role is to serve as a command center, passing the Hokage's orders from here, in addition to the centralized sorting of sub-intelligence, personnel task assignment, and so on.

After walking in the corridor for a while, Orochimaru pushed open a door and walked in, followed by Shuki Mitsuki.

This room is very large, not so much a room as a hall, surrounded by tall cabinets, which are full of various scrolls and document books, several long counters, which are also full of various documents, and around these counters, there are many figures busy with something.

Shuki Mitsuki finally saw a few shadows, and there were also some people wearing white outfits without masks on their faces, although they also wore Konoha ninja forehead guards on their heads, they looked more like civilian personnel, but they had the same cold temperament as the other shadows.

"Orochimaru-sama!"

The appearance of Orochimaru and Shuki Mitsuki made these people stop what they were doing, and then they all looked at Shuki Mizuki in surprise, it was not too surprising that Orochimaru would bring strangers to them, and occasionally new team members were taken by the top of the dark department to join, but in their eyes, the people brought over by Orochimaru were too young.

Orochimaru nodded lightly, not wanting to explain anything, his eyes looked at one of the ninjas in white costumes, and said, "Show me all the B-class missions that haven't been sent out recently." ”

"Understood, Orochimaru-sama." The ninja didn't ask why, nodded in agreement, and began rummaging through several counters.

When the others saw this, they no longer paid attention to Orochimaru, and went back to their own affairs, showing no curiosity at all, with a strict attitude and no distractions.

As if to explain to Shuki Mitsuki, Orochimaru said, "This is the place where the task is released and handed over, but the task is generally assigned directly to the dark team, so the role of the handover task is heavier." ”

Shuki Mitsuki nodded silently, indicating that he understood.

"Orochimaru-sama, it's all here!"

Handing over a thick stack of documents to Orochimaru, the ninja went back to his own business, and didn't pay attention to Orochimaru, seeing him like this, Shuki Mitsuki also somewhat understood that these people in the dark department should be in this style, and nodded secretly in his heart.

Orochimaru seemed to be used to it, and handed over the stack of documents to Shuki Mizuki, and smiled in a hoarse voice, "The lowest level of task difficulty in the dark department is level B, and it is more dangerous than the ordinary tasks in the mission commission hall above, and they can't be solved through the open side, a small part of them are commissions from the Daimyo's mansion, and more, they are needed in the village." ”

Shuki Mitsuki nodded, took the stack of documents, and began to look through them, and found that many of the tasks in it were indeed shady, going deep into other countries to steal intelligence, assassinating people who were dangerous to Konoha or the Fire Country, monitoring and guarding important suspects, and even supervising the ministers of the Fire Country, as well as patrolling to prevent foreign enemies from invading.

It's not surprising that Shuki sees the moon, there is light and there is darkness, any force that can remain strong and survive for a long time, if there is no darkness and filth in private, it is impossible at all, he will not be idiotic because of what he once saw in the comics, he idiotically thinks how great Konoha is, at most it is higher than the bottom line of other ninja villages.

Never overestimate the kindness of those in power, those leaders who sing about peace and love, put aside grudges, and pursue kindness and justice are the ones who have a hole in their brains in his eyes.

"You take a look at these B-level tasks here, see if you like them, pick a few out to practice first, I'll go through your formalities, and get you some basic equipment by the way." Orochimaru looked at Shuki Mitsuki and asked, and then turned to leave without waiting for him to respond.

Seeing this, Shuki Mitsuki shrugged his shoulders, glanced at the other dark parts that were still in this room, and saw that they didn't seem to care about their intentions, so they simply sat cross-legged on the ground and looked through these task lists.

In fact, these B-level tasks are also in line with his wishes, generally speaking, B-level difficulty tasks have involved the enemy of the middle ninja level, and the A-level corresponds to the target or enemy of the upper ninja level, as for the more difficult S-level difficulty tasks, it is no longer something he can contact now, and the B-level task is relatively suitable with his current strength.

After carefully reading all the task lists, Shuki Jianyue will have some surveillance, guarding, patrolling, etc., this kind of danger is low, but it takes a long time, and it will not necessarily see blood The task is eliminated, leaving some detective intelligence, assassination, this more dangerous type of task.

For the remaining small task list, Shuki Mitsuki picked and picked one of them, this is an assassination mission.

The target of the assassination is the leader of a gang of gangs in the country of fire, there is no need to say more about how bastard this gang leader is, in the fish and meat town, it doesn't matter if he is forced to become a prostitute. In Shuki Mitsuki's opinion, the main factor in the Daimyo's Mansion to issue this commission is probably because this guy is too rampant and has threatened the Daimyo's rule over the region.

This gang leader is not simple, not only is he a wandering ninja with the strength of a middle ninja, but he also has a lot of low-level wandering ninjas under his hands, and there are also a large number of samurai to serve him, this force alone has overwhelmed the local official armed forces to raise their heads.

In addition, this guy is still a well-known wealthy businessman in the Fire Country on the surface, and secretly colludes with many officials in the Fire Country to be embarrassed, and the relationship network is very deep, even if there is big news every time, there are always people who wipe their butts for it, so that if the Daimyo Mansion wants to get rid of this scourge, there is no way to use ordinary means, so he simply entrusts it directly to Konoha in a labor-saving and simple way.

"Ho ho ...... Already picked? ”

Shuki saw the moon and looked up, Orochimaru had already returned, and he was still holding a lot of things in his hands, the clothes of the dark department, the mask, the long knife, and it seemed that there was a pass to enter and exit here, and the dark part here should have everything, but I don't know if the costume will fit.

"That's it, teacher." Shuki Mitsuki took this assassination task list, looked at Orochimaru, and nodded affirmatively.

Orochimaru glanced at it, didn't say anything, handed over everything in his hand to Shuki Mizuki, and chuckled in a hoarse voice, "Taking advantage of a little power relationship, you will be a supernumerary member of the dark department in the future, and you can directly accept tasks in the dark department, and the general tasks are completed by yourself alone, and sometimes you will act together with other detachments, but you are not an official member of the dark department after all, and you are not qualified to contact some secrets of the dark department, and you will not get some privileges and conveniences either." ”

Shuki Jianyue nodded, not surprised, after all, he didn't rely on normal procedures to enter the dark department, but used Orochimaru's relationship to come in, and he could accept B-level or even A-level tasks that he couldn't reach at his level, and he was already satisfied.

Orochimaru didn't know the importance of being able to accept these high-level tasks, maybe he simply wanted to use these high-level tasks to sharpen him, but he just happened to fall into his arms.

Shuki Mitsuki doesn't know if Orochimaru will pit him in the future, but if the other party can treat him as an apprentice and play the role of a good teacher, just by virtue of the convenience brought by becoming the other party's disciple, he is also happy to respect the other party and maintain this master-apprentice relationship, otherwise......

Shuki Jianyue sneered in his heart.
