Chapter Twenty-Four: The Wave Country Mission
The sky is blue, the grass is green, and the animals are cute.
The daily life of a novice ninja is very down-to-earth, there is no high-level bloody fighting, and he is basically a child laborer who does some chores.
This old countryman needs weeding in the field, and you need to hurt each other with the green grass.
That villager needs to send something, and you need to move your legs and run.
There are also rich people who have lost their kittens and dogs, and you need to be ruthless to stop the animals' desire to run to freedom.
……
That's probably what the D-class mission is about, and most of the time, they don't even leave the village.
Because with the bounty of the D-class mission, I went far, and there were four people in the tenth class, and I might not even have enough money for the round-trip journey.
Only looking for pets and the like, because the target is a rich person, usually the bounty will be higher, so that the tenth class has a chance to go farther, but at most within the range of the Fire Country.
Hinata's white eyes are the natural enemies of pets running towards freedom, and they are very good at finding pets, so they can take on more of these tasks and walk outside.
But even so, Naruko can't stand it anymore, because the process is really peaceful, and the most bloody battle is probably a race with pets, and occasionally she will be scratched by them.
When he returned to the Hokage's office to hand in the mission again, and Sarutobi continued to give the tenth class D-class mission as usual, Naruko finally broke out.
"Old man, every day is such an ordinary task, it's annoying, can you give us a little powerful task."
Everyone is used to Naruko's disrespectful title, and Sarufei himself doesn't care, he looks like a kind old man.
"Hehe~ Any ninja starts with the most ordinary tasks, Naruko, you have patience and take your time step by step, you look at Shiraki, he knows to perform tasks silently and accumulate experience, not impatient like you."
Shiraki silently carried out the task, but it didn't mean that he was really patient.
The ninja he imagines is a bloody battle, can experience a lot of things, see all kinds of people, enemies, and partners, accompanied by sadness and laughter, and every day will be very exciting.
However, now every day, he lives too ordinary, except for being tired, there is nothing to say, it feels similar to the daily routine in the ninja school, repeating and repeating, calm and waveless.
Could it be that what he longed for and worked so hard to move forward was for this ordinary life?
So Ape Fei's compliment, Bai Mu didn't dare to accept it, he said what he thought.
"Do you want to fight with blood, go through a lot of things, and have a wonderful time every day? Hehe~" Ape Fei laughed, but he didn't seem happy, "I think a peaceful life is the best." ”
But obviously, Shiraki and the others did not understand.
"Hehe~ This is just the idea of an old man like me. As for you young people, it is also right to have the desire of young people. Well, I'll satisfy you! ”
"Yay, what kind of mission is it?"
"It's a C-class mission that just been released, and it just so happens that the client, Mr. Dazner, is also there."
……
Then, the tenth class got this task.
Dazna was an old man with glasses, who looked very learned, but his mouth was particularly bad.
He seems to be the most picky customer, always saying that the tenth shift is not good, hoping that they can be replaced by more reliable ninjas. Naruto was furious, and Shiraki also had a bad impression of him, but when he thought of the saying that the customer was God, he could only endure it.
When he finally arrived at the gate of the village and was about to officially set off, Dazna couldn't help it.
He looked back, and the four people in the tenth class had their eyes twinkle.
The three imps, one of whom is blind, looks so weak that even if there is an adult ninja, but a weak woman, can he really fight against the vicious Cardo?
Shouldn't they be killed because of him?
Kind, he decided to make another effort, except for concealing that this was not a C-level task, but a more advanced mission, he made all efforts, in short, to make some more serious mockery, hoping that the tenth class would be indignant.
As for him, he can take the opportunity to ask Konoha to change to a few more reliable ninjas to complete the task.
That way, you have the best of both worlds.
As a result, Naruko couldn't stand it and just forget it. Even Sunset, who has a good temper and is reserved as an adult, can't bear it anymore, and it's annoying to say over and over again that women can't do it.
"Mr. Dazner! Do you mean, look down on women? Or do you have something to do with me? 'It's okay', you can talk to me about it, I'll be very patient, huh? ”
The moth's eyebrows trembled, the momentum was violent, and the sunset red also had such a terrible side.
Dazner could only shake his head, indicating that he did not have such a bold idea.
"In C-level missions, you will only encounter people like evil party bandits, and it doesn't involve the struggle between ninjas.
Now, because of the relationship between the class, I personally participated in this mission as a shinobi, why are you still dissatisfied? Do you think I can't do it, or are you hiding something from us? ”
"Which... What is there to hide......" Dazna was covered with cold sweat behind his back.
"Like, the difficulty of the mission!"
"How is it possible, haha~ Let's hurry up!"
Dazna couldn't stand Sunset's scrutinizing gaze, stopped talking nonsense, and hurried off.
Let's hope everything goes well, a shinobi should be able to deal with the Cado group.
He prayed to himself.
……
Nothing happened all the way.
All the way to the seashore of the Land of Fire, the Land of Waves is on the sea, consisting of a bunch of islands that are very close together.
The group got on a small boat and took advantage of the fog to sneakily row to the country of waves.
A very majestic bridge stands on the sea, but only half of it, an unfinished half-finished bridge.
Dazna proudly said that this is the bridge he presided over the design, and the goal of the bridge is to connect the main island of the country of waves with the mainland.
Once the bridge is completed, it will be able to break the conspiracy of Cardo to take advantage of shipping and monopolize the communication between the mainland and the country of waves, so as to obtain black-hearted interests.
At this point, even if the ghost brothers didn't come to 'remind', even if Bai Mu and the others hadn't reacted, Sunset Red already knew it.
The group went ashore.
After listening to Dazner's proud narration all the way, Sunset Red gave a meaningful summary.
"What a big business!"
"Yes, if the bridge can be opened, we will no longer have to be exploited by Cardo, and at that time, the people of the country of waves will be able to get rid of poverty and live a prosperous and stable life."
"The significance of this undertaking is indeed significant, but the more this happens, is there a huge risk behind it, Mr. Dazner?"
"What?" Naruko is still immersed in the blueprint drawn by Dazna, not understanding what kind of dumb riddle Sunset Red is playing.
Bai Mu thought about it deeply, and immediately understood that Cardo's interests were based on the exploitation of the people, and once the bridge was completed, he would lose this part of his interests, which was the interest of a country, and how much interest represented how much conflict there would be.
He frowned and asked, "Mr. Dazna, you can hire ninjas, I think in the face of such huge benefits, there is no reason why Cardo should not hire ninjas, right?" ”
"This... Probably... Possible... Maybe. "That's why I hired you to protect me!" ”
"As far as I know, the mission level with the participation of ninjas is at least B or above."
"It's not because I don't have any money."
"You don't have any money, but Cardo has money. For the sake of this bridge, do you think Cardo will offer a bounty for it? ”
The increase in the bounty amount means that the level of the mission increases, and it also means that the ninja who receives the mission is stronger, which means nothing for the tenth class, it is self-evident.
Dazna finally couldn't stand Sunset's intense gaze and bowed his head to apologize.
"I'm sorry, it's me who can't afford to pay the bounty for C-rank missions, so I'm hiding some information, and I definitely won't blame you if you want to leave me because of this.
Even if I'm going to kill Cardo's people right away.
Even if I die, my daughter and a little grandson will be left alone.
Even if I die, there will be no hope for building bridges, and people will live in misery from now on.
……
I don't blame you for all of this. ”
"......" Bai Mu was speechless, such a bad old man.
Sunset Hong pursed her lips secretly, still trying her best to keep a tense face: "You are not qualified to be pitiful, you must know that the setting of the task level is very serious, and any act of concealment will cause serious consequences." Mr. Dazner, do you know how bad you have been? ”
"I really don't have any money! Besides, at that time, I didn't mean to belittle you, so that I could change people to take on the task, who told you to ......"
Dazna muttered quietly, and immediately saw Sunset's blackened face.
"Well, what are you talking about, Mr. Dazner?"
"No... Didn't say anything? Dazna waved his hand again and again, "The matter has come to this point, no matter what you do, I will accept it, but please believe that I really have no malicious intentions, I really don't have enough money, and the bridge is too big, so I can't help it." So, even if you ......"
"Okay, okay, tell all the information you're hiding, and then we'll judge for ourselves, what to do, you don't have to say anything!"
Dazna 1510 told everything he knew, and Sunset Red also made some annotations, and finally all three of them understood the general situation, mainly for Naruko to understand.
Sunset Hong gave the choice to the three of them: "Now that you understand the situation, what do you think you should do?" ”
"Do you even need to think about it? Although Uncle Dazna said that he was panicked, there was a reason, it was for the good of the country and a good person. And Cardo is the bad guy, isn't it what a ninja should do to help the good guys defeat the bad guys? ”
It must be Naruko who can say this as a matter of course, and Shiraki then nodded as well, and said: "This kind of experience is very much in line with my imagination of a ninja, trying to become a ninja, just going through such a thing, there is no reason to retreat, so I want to continue." ”
Hinata, she's not unassertive, but she basically won't say it, since Naruko and Shiraki have made a consistent choice, of course she chooses to agree, and that's enough.
Although the danger is beyond expectations, if they retreat because of this, I am afraid that it will have a negative impact on the three of them who have just started their ninja path.
The teenagers and girls are so energetic and willing to face difficulties, and as a teacher, she can only support this choice.
"Alright, let's go together."
Sunset Red waved his hand and moved on.
……
In the base of the Cado Group.
"If you don't kill it again, I got the news that Dazna guy has invited the Konoha ninja to come, you should go and kill them quickly."
In the face of the famous and well-known ghost man's re-beheading, Cardo said very arrogantly, commanding, as if he regarded Zai Bu as an ordinary subordinate.
As everyone knows, if you don't cut it several times, you want to swing the decapitation knife and cut off Cardo's head along with that arrogant face.
But if he doesn't cut it again, he didn't do it after all, Cardo's arrogance, but based on the arrogance of ignorance, he has enough arrogant capital, even in the face of ghosts.
If you don't think about it, you still have to wait. In that case, let's obey Kado first and slaughter the unlucky ninja from Konoha with your hands.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Cardo without killing the murderous spirit, without saying a word, carrying the beheading knife on his back, and went out to cut people.
A tool called White, closely followed.
