It has been three months since the seventh class was established.

As the lowest level of the ninja class, especially the rookies who have just graduated from school and have no actual mission experience, the upper ninja who leads the team will take them to perform some relatively simple, or even almost irrelevant D-class tasks with ninjas.

For example, helping to carry goods, helping farmers weed in the fields, cleaning up garbage in the river, helping some busy villagers with their children, and even searching for lost pets.

Of course, these tasks are a very important process of experience accumulation for Shimoshinobi, and Naruto, who knows this very well, will naturally not complain; For Sakura, who only has Sasuke in her head, as long as she can watch Sasuke's figure from the sidelines, she is satisfied, and naturally she doesn't mind; As for Sora, who has never had any special feelings for the ninja profession, it's just to earn some living expenses.

But the other three don't mind, and it doesn't mean that Sasuke won't mind either.

For Uchiha Sasuke, his only goal is to kill his brother, Uchiha Itachi, who destroyed the Uchiha clan, and then revitalize the Uchiha clan, but the difference in strength between him and Uchiha Itachi is simply unimaginable, so for him, what he wants is a powerful force that can defeat Itachi.

And these D-class tasks that don't play a role in improving strength at all, how can Sasuke, who is eager to improve his strength, not feel anxious.

Then, after recapturing the escaped cat, Tiger, of the daimyo lady, Sasuke offered to perform a higher-level mission.

While Iruka retorted with the argument that they were inexperienced, Kakashi used an even more difficult reason: "They are no longer students of the school, they are my subordinates. ”

In the end, the three generations of Hokage, Sarutobi Hizashi gave them a C-level escort mission, and the task was to send Dazna, the bridge builder of the country of waves, back to the country of waves safely.

And when he heard this task, a gleam flashed in Sora's eyes.

He still remembers this mission, this so-called C-level mission is simply Dazna's false declaration of rank, in this escort mission, but there was an S-level rebel ninja, an elite shinobi from Wuyin Village, and Taodi, known as the 'ghost man', will not be killed.

As the first strong enemy that appeared in the early stage of the plot, it is a good opponent for the air that lacks actual combat experience now.

And for others, a small escort task was nothing, so the matter was settled.

================================= dividing line =================================

The next morning-

In front of the gate of Konoha Village, the members of the seventh class were gathered here, and there was an uncle about 50 years old who was drinking with a somewhat shabby dress and a wine bottle he carried with him, and he was the object of their mission, Mr. Dazna.

Naruto and Sasuke looked impatient, while Sakura was still looking at Sasuke's side face and was, while Sora was leaning against the door, looking as cold as ever.

Kakashi, on the other hand, was not late for the surprise of everyone except Sora and Dazna, and came to meet everyone on time.

In the face of such a team, Dazna is quite relieved, although this team is full of children, but there is Kakashi, the upper ninja, plus the reddish-brown hair boy is also quite tall (Sora's height at this time is 175 cm, which is definitely superordinarily developed among his peers), and his muscles are also very strong, so he shouldn't look weak.

After passing a trail, there was a pool of stagnant water next to the originally dry road, which would be strange no matter how you look at it, but Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura, who are typical rookies, naturally didn't notice it, and the experienced Kakashi naturally noticed that something was wrong.

As for Sora, he, who had already mastered the sixth sense of the small universe, naturally sensed the trace of murderous aura hidden in the stagnant water, but Sora didn't bother to say anything.

When they walked over, two figures suddenly jumped out of the stagnant water, and immediately wrapped their chains around the body of Kakashi, who fell at the end, and as soon as the chains were closed, Kakashi was immediately dismembered!

This bloody scene suddenly made Sakura, who had never seen blood, scream loudly, and Naruto and Sasuke were also stunned in place.

Sora didn't react, because he knew that Kakashi had already dodged with a stand-in technique, watching them from the sidelines.

Without saying a word, the ghost brother who strangled Kakashi immediately rushed towards Danaz.

At this time, Sakura had already reacted quickly, taking out kunai to protect Danaz behind him, and Naruto and Sasuke were also in a state of response.

But at this moment, in the eyes of the ghost brothers, a white shadow suddenly flashed, and instantly appeared in front of them.

The empty eyes that suddenly flashed in front of the ghost brother became extremely sharp, and his right hand clenched into a fist, and a trace of white brilliance that was difficult for others to observe appeared on the empty right fist.

"Hah!"

With his right fist in the air, the ghost brother only felt that countless stormy meteors flashed in front of him, and then his body was subjected to a series of violent impacts, and he flew directly backwards and fell to the ground.

This sudden scene made Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi, who was watching from the sidelines, all widen their eyes.

But compared to the surprise of the others, Sora just snorted, he was just a whim just now, and he couldn't help but want to make a move, who knew that these two guys were so unbeaten, just took a sonic punch and collapsed on the ground.

You know, the blow he hit just now was just the same as Seiya, who didn't wear holy clothes at the beginning of the original book, with a speed of 85 punches a second, and he only hit for a second, these two guys were put down, and it seems that these two guys at the middle ninja level have a lot of moisture.

Hit 85 punches in one second, if it weren't for the same Saint Seiya, or wearing good quality armor, otherwise the end would be very miserable, and the result was that the ghost brothers fell not far away, and they almost couldn't get up.

"Oh, what a surprise, Kaede." Kakashi also emerged from the woods where he was hiding, glanced at Dazna, and then pulled out a rope out of nowhere and tied up the oni brothers.

"I have something to confirm." Dazna was a little disappointed.

"Why did you see through our movements?" The two men tied to the tree asked in disbelief. Seeing that Kakashi is still alive until now, he knows that he was tricked just now.

"It's obviously not raining these days, and it's still a sunny day, so there's no water on the road, right?" Kakashi looked at the two of them as they looked tied to the trunk of a tree and explained the doubts in their minds.

"You know this, why do you want a child to do it?" Dazna looked at Kakashi suspiciously.

"If I wanted to, I could kill both of them in an instant." Kakashi stopped, staring at Dazna with only his exposed right eye, seeing him break out in a cold sweat, Kakashi continued, "As I said before, there is one thing I want to confirm first, that is, who is the target of the enemy? But it looks like you're the target, Mr. Dazna, we didn't know if you were being targeted by ninjas, so it's a B-level or higher mission, do you have anything to explain? ”

Kakashi glanced at the four behind him, "It's out of our power right now."

Hearing this, only Sakura among the four showed the intention of retreating, "This mission is too early for us to go back!" Sakura looked at Kakashi with a look of hope, then turned to look at Naruto and the other three. Naruto's 'I'm going to continue' look made Kakashi and Sakura give up the idea of persuading him, and Sora still looked indifferent, and the arrogant Sasuke was even less likely to give up the mission. So, the task continues

=============================== dividing line ===============================

After walking for a few days, the group finally arrived at the natural border of the country of waves, that is, the sea. It's just that during the day, I can't find a ship that is willing to take a group of people to the sea to the country of waves, because all the boatmen are afraid of Cardo, so they don't dare to take them to sea, relying on Dazna's fame here, everyone greets Dazna very affectionately after seeing Dazna, but they are unwilling to help Danaz and others go to sea. It's just that Dazna didn't know what method to use, and he quickly found someone who was willing to go to sea, but because of Cardo, he asked to go to sea in the early hours of the morning. Since there was no one, Kakashi and the others had to agree to cross the sea to the country of waves before the sun came out in the early morning.

In the early hours of the morning, it was still night, because there was the sea all around, so after the Liuyun went out to sea, the sea was still full of fog, and the fog concentration was too high, and the visibility was only one or two meters, and it was impossible to see it any further. Moreover, in order to conceal themselves, the boatman who carried them out to sea only used a small wooden boat, which was so small that it could barely seat a few people. But it was enough for the seventh class, and there was a thick fog around that made it impossible to see ahead, and only the indigenous people here were reluctant to drive the boat.

"Actually, you're right, because there's a horrible guy who wants my life." Talking about the boat, Dazna paused and said, "You should have heard of this guy too, right?" He is the Monopoly Cardo of the shipping company. ”

"Huh? Cardo! That Cardo company? Kakashi was slightly stunned: "That Kado is one of the few super-rich people in the world. "Cardo? Who is he? Naruto asked with a questioning expression.

Dazna nodded and said: "Ah, it's him, on the surface, he is in charge of shipping, but in private, he uses ninjas and various mafias to sell drugs and controlled products, make huge profits, and even continue to encroach on other businesses and countries is a villain who does all kinds of evil." Speaking of this, Dazna paused for a moment, and then continued: "About a year ago, that guy fell in love with the country of waves, and with financial resources and violence, he almost controlled all the maritime transportation of the country of waves in the blink of an eye, and for an island country like the country of waves, controlling all the shipping is equivalent to controlling everything in the country of waves. But Cardo was not without his fears, and the only thing he feared was the bridge, which was still under construction. As long as that bridge can be completed, then there will be a glimmer of life in the country of waves. At least not completely controlled by Cardo"

Sakura listened to Dazner's words and said with relief, "I see, that's why Mr. Dazner, as a master of bridge building, is regarded as a thorn in his side." Kakashi listened to Dazna's explanation and nodded slightly, "I know, but I don't understand that the other party is a dangerous guy who even sends ninjas, so when you entrust the mission, you have to hide this?" ”

Dazna shook his head helplessly and said: "It's not that I deliberately want to hide it, it's just that the country of waves is a super poor country, and the people rely on the gifts of the sea to barely live a self-sufficient life, but we are still very poor, and we don't even have much money for the daimyo." Of course, I can't afford to pay that. If I'm going to delegate a B-class mission, I'm afraid I won't even be able to pay the fee. So, but if you're going to abort this mission, I'm dead. Maybe it's on the way home, maybe it's when the bridge is being built. Then Dazna laughed loudly and waved his hand, "Hehe, it's nothing, even if I die, only my ten-year-old grandson will cry to death." ”

"I think you've spent all your money!" Three black lines appeared on the foreheads of Naruto and the others.

Then Dazna spoke again, "Ah, by the way, and my daughter, who has not yet come out of the shadow of losing her husband, she will hate the ninja of Konoha for the rest of her life. Then the two mothers and sons lived alone together. Of course, it's not your fault," he said, pretending to look at the crowd.

"What a scoundrel old man" was the only thought in the hearts of the three Naruto.

"Well~~ There's no way, then we'll protect you until you return home!" Kakashi said helplessly as he heard Dazna even move out of his own daughter and grandson.

"Win Compassion and Succeed!" Dazna turned around and made a triumphant gesture, if Naruto and the others saw him head-on, maybe he really left him alone or threw him into the sea to fend for himself.

And the only thing that didn't react was the empty that had been meditating at the stern of the boat since he went out to sea, and he didn't seem to react to the movement next to him, but in fact, the sky above had quietly turned on the small cosmic induction, and from just now, he felt it, and that trace of murderous aura, although it was far away, but he did feel it.

Thinking of being able to move his muscles and bones reliably, the corners of Kong's mouth couldn't help but hang a slight cold arc.
