Ichiraku ramen stall.

Shh

Sasuke, who was eating ramen, asked Kakashi after eating his immediate food.

"Kakashi-sensei, what's the matter?"

Kakashi picked up the ramen and put it in his mouth, then replied unhurriedly.

"Starting tomorrow, your lockdown will be lifted, and after such a long period of observation, the group will be nowhere to be seen, so you can go out on a normal mission next."

Kakashi's words surprised Sasuke, after all, he thought he would be in the village for a long time.

"Shall I still do the mission with you?"

Sasuke had long known that Kakashi had been on a confrontation mission with other villages recently, so he was a little curious if he was following Kakashi.

"That's right, because the recent conflict has gradually eased, after all, although the Fire Country suffered heavy losses in the last incident, after all, Konoha's strength was not damaged, so a large-scale war should not break out, but the turmoil in the big countries has made the situation in the small countries more chaotic, so the next tasks are all around the surrounding small countries."

That being said, but this is not the case.

In fact, since the destruction of the Uchiha clan, Konoha has fallen into the weakest time as a whole, but at the time of turmoil, the three generations of Hokage mobilized all the forces of the Konoha ninja clan to the border to put out the fire, so under the menacing, the other big countries finally annihilated the intention of making a move.

But it is worth mentioning that behind such fanfare, the ninja can only lick their wounds silently alone.

After listening to Kakashi's story, Sasuke fell into deep thought.

After all, he was already a ninja who had done a mission, and it was not difficult to imagine how much blood and carnage were behind these few short sentences.

"When does the mission start?"

"Meet at Konoha Gate at 6 a.m. tomorrow."

"I see."

After the conversation, Sasuke began to savor Ichiraku ramen.

As for tomorrow's mission, Sasuke has no fear, because his strength has increased dramatically.

After eating, Sasuke was about to pay the bill, when Naruto, who had a loud voice, suddenly walked in.

"Uncle, let's have a bowl of somen noodles."

Looking through his wallet and finding that he was running out of money, Naruto had to buy a bowl of the cheapest.

"Boss, give him a bowl of miso barbecued pork, I'll pay for it too."

"Okay, little brother."

After squinting his hand and smiling at the coin, Naruto realized that Sasuke was also here.

"Sas, you're here, what a coincidence."

"Don't you say thank you?"

The corners of Sasuke's mouth hooked and he began to tease Naruto.

"Cut, thank you."

Naruto was still very upset with Sasuke's face, but he still wouldn't forget the thanks he deserved.

"Well, although the voice is a little quieter, it's okay, then you can eat first and I'll go."

With that, Sasuke beckoned Kakashi to leave with him.

"Hey, Sas, do you know that Sakura has been working hard to cultivate lately."

“…”

Hearing Naruto's words, Sasuke paused but left without saying anything.

At the fork in the road, Sasuke said goodbye to Kakashi.

"Kakashi-sensei, see you tomorrow."

And Kakashi couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Sasuke's figure leaving alone.

"It's nice to be young."

……

Early the next morning, Sasuke, who was ready early, gathered at the Konoha gate on time.

"Just bring a knife? Won't you be prepared if you don't do tasks for a long time? ”

When Sasuke arrived, Kakashi found that Sasuke didn't have any ninja on his body except for a god sword.

"Naturally not."

Sasuke then leaked out the spiritism that was tied to his left wrist.

"The ninja equipment is here, and you can use whichever you want."

"Interesting idea, let's go."

Kakashi didn't comment on Sasuke's little idea, so he simply set off.

As he made a quick ride, Kakashi talked about the mission.

"The country of grass has suffered heavy losses due to the turmoil some time ago, so there is news that the village of grass is preparing to launch a coup d'état, so our purpose is to quell this rebellion."

"Quell the rebellion? Do we want to intervene in the affairs of other countries? ”

After listening to the content of the mission, Sasuke felt a little novel, after all, this kind of mission was completely different from being a guard before.

"Naturally, it's not that simple, the deeper reason is that the position of Kugakure Kamishinobi, who is preparing for the rebellion, is inclined to the land country, so we need to stop it for the sake of the fire country."

After hearing this, Sasuke seemed to understand.

"So the original leans towards us?"

"No, the original one is caught in the middle and will not fall on either side."

"Is that so?"

chatting all the way, two days have passed since Sasuke and the two arrived at the Grass Hidden Village in the Grass Country.

In a basement outside Grass Hidden Village, it is the stronghold of the Konoha Dark Department here.

So, as soon as the two of them arrived here, Kakashi brought Sasuke here.

"Kakashi-senpai."

Yuki Utsuki, who was wearing a dark mask, immediately greeted Kakashi when he saw him come in.

"Kakashi, you actually took such a young child on such a mission?"

The other shadow in the stronghold looked at Kakashi with slight dissatisfaction.

"Well, don't worry, don't look at Sasuke's age, but his strength is still okay."

And while Kakashi was arguing, Sasuke was observing the surroundings without saying a word.

"You are..."

The man was about to say something, but Mao Yue Xiyan directly interrupted him.

"Alright, Kakashi-senpai has his own considerations."

"Xiyan, how is the situation in Caoyin Village?"

After Kakashi asked, Utsuki began to tell the information that had been gathered here.

"Kusakure Kamishinobi Takushi Takushi Yamaguchi who is preparing for a rebellion is preparing for a coup d'état tonight, and these are the information of ninjas within Kugakure Village."

As he spoke, Kakashi took the information handed over by Utsuki Yuki.

After understanding the situation, Kakashi thought about it for a while and then had a countermeasure.

"Tonight? It seems that it came at the right time. Sasuke, get ready, we'll sneak into the village later. ”

"Alright, Kakashi-sensei."

Sasuke's casual answer made Raven very dissatisfied.

"Little ghost, what kind of attitude do you have, you must know that the next task is to be desperate."

"I'm sorry."

Sasuke's dissatisfaction with the crow is inexplicable, after all, he usually gets along with Kakashi so casually.

"You guy."

"Alright, don't look for any more trouble."

Mao Yue Xiyan scolded the crow who had been stirring up trouble.

Apparently there was some story that Sasuke didn't know, but he didn't care, after all, it was just a simple task.

"Now that we know the situation, let's go."

Before leaving, Kakashi didn't forget to say a word.

"Xiyan, our retreat will be left to you."

"Okay, Kakashi-senpai."

Kakashi then left the dark stronghold with Sasuke.

Once back on the surface, Kakashi led Sasuke to the gate of Kusakure Village.

"There is no prevention barrier like Konoha in Caoyin Village, so we can just wait until we find a breakthrough point to enter."

"It's not more troublesome."

So, Sasuke opened the writing wheel eye and swaggered over to the ninja guarding the gate.

But the other party turned a blind eye to Sasuke.

"Let's go, Kakashi-sensei."
