Compared to the simplicity of D-class quests, the content of C-rank quest scrolls can be said to be much richer. Not only the level and content of the task, but also the specific mission objectives and even the time limit. Of course, this may also depend on the specifics of the task.

Assassinate!

Looking at these two words, for some reason, Tomohiko always had a chilling feeling, and his mind kept thinking about the unhealed wounds on Uncle Watanabe's body, and the dark red kunai on his cupboard, which was the only relic left by his father.

This time, your enemies will no longer be dummies that are programmed to act, your own kunai will see blood, and your darts will take the lives of others.

I have been prepared for this for a long time, haven't I? From the names engraved on the memorial monument, from the children around me who have lost their relatives like me, from the water left on my grandfather's face in the middle of the night. How can the life of a ninja be without the company of blood?

I've been looking forward to this day for a long time, haven't I? Haven't I been bored by all those endless trainings, those endless D-class missions?

So when this day really comes, what are you afraid of?

Tomohiko Oda, what exactly are you afraid of?

Just when Peng Yan was stunned, suddenly, Baichao's complaining voice sounded in his ears:

"Ah, it's an assassination mission, this, I'm not good at it!"

Looking at Baicha with a look of chagrin in a daze, Peng Yan suddenly thought: "Perhaps, what I lack is the peaceful mentality of Baicha." ”

Coming back to his senses from his thoughts, Peng Yan smiled and said to Baicha: "You are not good at it, you are not afraid, don't you still have me? As long as you don't say that I will sell you when the time comes." ”

"How so!" Baicha laughed, "I'm very generous!"

"Okay, you two, really, can't you say something useful if you don't look at what time it is?" Seeing that Tomohiko and Baicha were still fighting around here when Mr. Sakai sent the task, Xiao Nan couldn't help but feel angry.

"Haha, isn't that just about to ask? Tomohiko smiled and nodded, and asked Sakai, "Sakai-sensei, according to the scroll, this Hiraoka Ryuta's stronghold is located east of Hakata Town, do you have any other information?"

Having said that, Peng Yan knew in his heart that this map might not be available. Otherwise, with the difficulty of this task, I'm afraid that Ryuta Hiraoka has already been cleaned up.

Sure enough, as Tomohiko expected, Sakai shook his head and said, "I only know his approximate location, and I don't have specific coordinates." But I have a copy of the information about Ryuta Hiraoka here, provided by the mayor of Hakata who assigned this task, do you need it?"

"Oh, there's such a thing? Then you have to hear it. "Tomohiko is overjoyed, although there is no key item such as a map, it is good to have a profile of the target, at least it can save them a lot of time. Now Peng Yan only hopes that this information can be as complete as possible.

"Ryuta Hiraoka, male, 36 years old, from Shiraishi Castle in the Land of Fire, born as a commoner, once served as a samurai under the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. Three years ago, for unknown reasons, Ryuta Hiraoka was dismissed by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and became a ronin, and his whereabouts were unknown. It wasn't until a year ago that Ryuta Hiraoka reappeared in the Land of Fire and became the leader of the bandits near Hakata-cho.

Before coming to the Land of Fire, Ryuta Hiraoka had traveled to the Land of Iron for a period of time and had been exposed to the 'One Sword Stream' school of the Land of Iron, so he had the shadow of the Land of Iron in his martial arts, and he paid attention to going all out when fighting people, leaving no room for it. ”

Handing the scroll with Ryuta Hiraoka in his hand to Tomohiko, Sakai asked, "Are there any more questions?"

Peng Yan just wanted to speak, but he didn't want to be a step ahead of him, and said, "There is a problem, what is this 'one-knife flow'?"

"Ichito-ryu is a genre among the samurai, similar to the esoteric ninjutsu in our ninjas. In addition to the one-knife stream, there are also the flow of reason, the flow of thoughtlessness, the flow of wisdom, and so on. Different schools of thought had different emphasis on samurai. Sakai explained.

"So many?" said in surprise, "When I was in school before, I didn't hear from the teacher at all." ”

"Because samurai mainly exist in the Land of Iron, they have little contact with us. After answering all kinds of doubts, Peng Yan finally asked the question he wanted to ask.

"Mr. Sakai, how many people are there in Ryuta Hiraoka's cottage?"

"According to incomplete statistics, the number is probably between thirty and fifty. ”

"What about combat power?" asked Tomonhiko.

"The combat power of ordinary bandits is at the level of ordinary adults. Still have questions?"

"It's gone. ”

Hearing Tomohiko's answer, Sakai nodded and said, "Okay, you guys get ready, three hours later, we will gather at the gate of the village, and I will send you out of the village." ”

After speaking, Sakai made an instantaneous technique and disappeared in front of the three of them.

"The teleportation technique looks so handsome! when will I learn this? Baicha said enviously.

Peng Yan looked at the scroll in his hand word by word, and said on his lips: "It's also one of the three body techniques of the dark department, so it must be very practical." As for when you'll be able to use it, let's wait until you've solved your total chakra problem!"

"Well, that's a problem. Thinking of his chakra, Baiqi couldn't help but get frustrated.

Compared with Baicha, who focuses on the instantaneous technique, Xiao Nan focuses more on the task itself. I only heard her ask worriedly, "Pengyan, are you sure?"

"It's hard to say. Peng Yan frowned and said: "The information given is too little, not only is there no map of the bandit stronghold, but even the location is not clear, and the specific number of bandits is an approximation." There are too many uncertainties, and further information needs to be gathered. ”

Speaking of this, Tomohiko sighed and said in a condensed voice, "The most important thing is about Ryuta Hiraoka. We have never been in contact with samurai, and we don't know their fighting habits and fighting methods, so it's hard to say if we can't kill them with one blow and turn from assassination to forcible killing. How it will be, it depends on whether we can adapt to the situation at that time. ”

"Isn't this mission dangerous?" Xiao Nan couldn't help but say.

"The danger is certain, after all, it's a C-class mission. Let's just say, let's be careful. Peng Yan said helplessly.

"Hey, if you want me to say, Pengyan, you're definitely thinking too much. Unlike Pengyan's heart, Baicha was in a very good mood, so he smiled and said, "Don't forget, we're ninjas, can't we run if we can't beat us." ”

"That's what I said. However, I don't want to fail my first mission. Peng Yan pursed his lips and said angrily.
