Early the next morning, several people came to the mission hall.

"Ah, Ling, you're here to take on the mission." A voice rang out.

Ling turned his head to see that it was the Uchiha who started their class, and Ling nodded in response.

"Teacher, which task should we take?" Rei Kitano asked.

Ling also looked carefully at the task list, the lowest of which were C-level tasks, that is, tasks that would cause battles.

At this time, the war had not stopped, the situation in various countries was chaotic, and many small villages were invaded by the war and suffered heavy damage, and the villagers could not survive for a long time.

In order to survive, many villagers have fallen into the grass and become robbers, attacking passing merchants and even robbing villages, and their task is to exterminate these bandits.

The little powerhouses in the original book are indeed lucky to live in a peaceful environment.

Even in the 60s, after the ninja world was basically peaceful, a small village like Kusakain Village, which was at the junction of major powers, was still in a chaotic atmosphere where thieves were rampant, and a large number of renegade ninja also used this place as a base camp.

In this day and age, it's ridiculous to have ninjas go to cats and dogs to take care of children, and now there is no such task for them to "gain experience".

Uchiha Haratake pointed to a C-level mission and said with interest: "I think this task is good, there are a lot of bandits in Kiyomachi Village, and there may be wandering and rebellious ninjas. ”

After a pause, he continued: "When the time comes, I won't make a move, and all the enemies will be handed over to you, no problem, right?" ”

Ling and Hinata nodded in response, and Kitano Ling asked a little nervously, "Teacher, what if there is an enemy that we can't deal with?" ”

"Ah don't worry, if there is an emergency, I will take action, you are my students, if you can't complete the task, you will be ridiculed as a teacher." Uchiha Haratake's face was poisonous.

"Damn, we can defeat all enemies ourselves." Hinata Fumino shouted unconvinced.

"Eh, I think you should straighten your minds, this mission is to exterminate the mountain bandits, but it's not as simple as you usually play with each other.

If you have this kind of thinking and are killed by an ordinary mountain bandit at that time, it will be really embarrassing. Uchiha Haratake stared at Fumino and said in a flat tone.

Although Yuan Wu's tone was flat, the three of them could still feel a chill rushing towards their faces, and Kitano Ling couldn't help but take a step back.

Soon Yuan Wu put away the momentum of Zhun Ying, waved his hand and said with a smile: "Ahhhhh ”

……

Konoha Village is backed by a mountain at its back, and in front of it is a dense forest, with thick and primeval trees reaching into the sky.

A group of four people wandered through the forest, and Uchiha Haratake walked in front with a map in hand.

"At our pace, we will probably be able to reach Kiyomachi Village tomorrow night, so I'll give you a good introduction to this mission."

The three nodded in response.

"Kiyomachi Village is located in a valley with a waterfall running down from the top of the mountain, and I visited there 20 years ago, so it's a great place to be surrounded by mountains and rivers.

There is only one way in and out of the village, and I will guard the entrance of the village to prevent the bandits from escaping. Uchiha Haratake said slowly.

"Has the teacher been there before?" Rei Kitano asked with some confusion.

"Yes, Kiyomachi Village is a very wealthy village, but it is located on the edge of the Fire Country, and every time there is a war, there are many bandits who come to raid.

At that time, the ninja war had just broken out, and I also went there with my teacher on a mission, and it has been twenty years in the blink of an eye! Uchiha Haratake sighed.

Hinata Fumino said, "It's amazing that the teacher actually participated in the first ninja war. ”

"Hehe, that war......" When it comes to war, Uchiha Haratake is always in a lack of interest.

Seeing that the teacher didn't want to say more, the three of them tacitly stopped talking, and then the next few people hurried with all their might, and finally arrived outside Kiyomachi Village the next night.

The village was quiet in the evening, but the smell of blood lingered.

"Teacher, it seems that the villagers in the village ......" Hinata Fumino said with a slight frown.

Uchiha Hara Takeshi also said in a low tone: "Those bandits are all burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil.

Although some of the villagers have fled, the remaining women, children and elderly people who can't run are probably ......"

"These damn bandits!" Rei Kitano said resentfully.

"It's up to you to decide what to do next." Then the old god stepped aside.

……

"Ling, what should we do, we don't know the situation inside, and we don't know how many bandits there are." Rei Kitano asked.

"We just need to wait for the right time, catch a bandit, and naturally get the information we need." Ling analyzed.

Soon a middle-aged bandit with a yellow face and thin muscles walked out, with a bandana wrapped around his head and a worn-out woodcutter in his hand.

He leaned against the door, napping, apparently unaware of the danger.

Ling slowly sneaked over, and when he came behind the bandit, the other party didn't react. Ling couldn't help but shake his head, in front of the ninjas, these bandits really only had the life of being slaughtered.

Ling stretched out his left hand to cover the other party's mouth to prevent him from making a sound, and it was only then that the middle-aged bandit turned his head and looked at Ling behind him in horror with a pair of eyes.

Ling's right hand was against the opponent's neck, and the opponent struggled even more, but with Ling's strength, he was just doing useless work.

Ling dragged the middle-aged bandit to the position of the team.

"Don't shout, or I'll take your life in a second! Do you understand! Ling shouted.

The other party nodded hurriedly, for fear that one would accidentally lose his life.

Letting go of his left hand, the other party begged for mercy: "Ladies and gentlemen, I was forced to do it, I haven't killed anyone, let me go!" As he spoke, tears flowed down his eyes, and people couldn't help but believe his words.

Ling was unmoved, and asked with a normal face: "Hmph, let me ask you, what is the situation in the village now, if you tell the truth, we will spare your life." ”

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir! The village is now occupied, and the villagers ...... Uh, except for most of the villagers who have fled, the rest are ......," the middle-aged bandit said, glancing at Ling's face.

Kitano Ling shouted indignantly: "You damned bandits, can you be at peace in your heart by doing this!" ”

"It's none of my business, I'm forced, it's all big bosses, and he did it.

Before the ninja adults were fighting, he was already a mountain bandit, and now he is taking advantage of the chaos to come out and plunder, it's really none of my business! Hearing Kitano Rei's question, the other party was so frightened that he almost knelt down.

Ling stopped Kitano Ling, and then asked the middle-aged bandit:

"Well, I see, how many of you are there? Are there any ninjas who exist? ”

The other party hurriedly replied: "There are more than 150 people in total, some of them are ordinary mountain bandits, some are fugitive villagers, the second leader is a down-and-out samurai, and there are also seven or eight samurai under his command.

In addition, there are three or five traitors, and the big boss is also polite to them. ”

The middle-aged bandit was afraid that his life would be in danger, so he vomited out all the situation.

"Yes," Ling nodded in response.

"Ninja-sama, am I ......?"

"Whew!" Before he finished speaking, the kunai in Ling's hand stabbed into the other party's neck, and the blood gushed like a spring.

"Poof!" As the corpse fell to the ground, the middle-aged bandit's wide eyes revealed horror and incredulity.
