Chapter 18: Misfortune

In the alley, Ino cornered Naruto.

Half of his cheeks were covered by dense golden ruhai, and his blue eyes stared at Naruto and said hey!

"Does Sasuke like girls or not?"

"What?" Naruto tilted his head and looked at Ino suspiciously, without the slightest sense of being asked.

"Soul light! You said it yourself! Ino was a little frantic and stopped Naruto's clothes, "Don't play dead!" Naruto! ”

"Then you'll have to go and ask Sasuke in person." Naruto suddenly showed a smile, quite snakeskin.

"Ahhh Damn it! Ino was going crazy, holding his head and shaking from side to side, "Does he like girls?" ”

"I have a way to verify it." Naruto said at the right time.

"What's the solution?" Ino jerked his head up.

"Konoha ninjas have the opportunity to take a group hot spring vacation once a year." Naruto smiled and said, "When the time comes, you can take advantage of Sasuke alone and go directly to the male ......."

"Die!"

Ino didn't get an answer, so he let out a long breath and gave up.

The Yamanaka flower shop was not far away, and Naruto sent it over before heading back to the apartment. In contrast, he actually has a good relationship with the trio of Pig, Deer and Butterfly.

The next day, the two-day holiday ended.

Kakashi summoned the seventh class and told the trio that the mission review had been passed, and took their first C-Class assignment along the way.

"The expert in bridge building to protect the country of waves?" Sakura asked.

"Yes." Kakashi didn't panic, drooping the dead fish's eyes and putting his hands in his pockets, "Cheer up, this is the first C-class mission of your life." ”

"Although C-class missions generally don't encounter enemies, anything can happen outside the village."

"Bandits, wandering ninjas, pirates, ninjas from other ninja villages. Everything has the potential to trigger a battle and escalate the mission. ”

"Got it, Kakashi-sensei, you're so long-winded." Naruto wasn't as depressed as he was on a rainy day yesterday and couldn't help but complain.

When he went out in the morning, he threw a bag of garbage on the faces of the gloomy-eyed people downstairs, so he was in a particularly happy mood.

Those villagers were also just keyboard warriors, and when they saw Naruto take out the ninja forehead guard, they immediately shrank back and didn't dare to speak.

Kakashi didn't speak, and directly knocked Naruto with his hand.

"Class 7! Half an hour later, the village will gather and disband! ”

With that, Kakashi thuded into a cloud of white smoke and disappeared in an instant.

"I'm looking forward to this mission!" Sakura said with a little wistfulness, "I don't know what kind of person that bridge builder is. ”

"It's just a matter of protecting the target, anyway." Sasuke spoke, "It doesn't matter who it is, Kakashi said that there will be no battle in C-rank missions." ”

"It's boring, it's a waste of time to finish it early."

Naruto glanced at Sasuke and saw that he had a blue bracer on the wrist of his left hand.

"Naruto, who do you think that bridge building expert is?" Sakura turned her head to look at Naruto, who was yawning at the moment.

"I don't know, since you're an expert, it must be a bad-tempered old man." Naruto reached out and scratched his face, saying disapprerovingly.

Half an hour later, at the gate of Konoha Village.

"Hey! What a joke, I paid the honorarium! Send three imps to protect me, what's going on with you Konoha? ”

An old man with a scruffy beard carrying a wine bottle yelled at Kakashi.

"Is that the attitude of Konoha like this? How can this protect me! I'm an expert at bridge building! ”

Sakura's face was full of black lines, staring at the tall, scruffy old man, and glancing back at Naruto, meaning that you really guessed correctly.

Kakashi was explaining with a smile, but the old man didn't believe it and said excitedly.

"I'm Dazna, a bridge builder from the Land of Waves!"

Naruto on the side got a little impatient and shouted at the man.

"Shut up, old fellow, what's there to brag about building bridges!"

"You little ghost!" Dazna looked a little excited, but was quickly persuaded by Kakashi, and finally agreed to go.

Half a day later.

The group walked to the junction of the forests of the Fire Country, and walked a little further ahead to reach the ferry. Kakashi's eyes sharpened, glancing left and right.

Sasuke also sensed Kakashi's reaction, and the whole person frowned slightly. Although his face was still calm, he was secretly alert.

Naruto had known that someone was following, and the mist ninja's trick of tracking was too clumsy. He wasn't worried, and walked on humming a song.

As she walked, even Sakura, who was in the team, had some heart palpitations, and she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy listening to Naruto's unclear humming.

Just as she was about to speak, something happened suddenly.

The two ninjas suddenly jumped out of the bushes on the side, clutching two thorny chains in their hands, and cut straight at Kakashi in front of him.

In that moment, the sultry wind died still, and Naruto could feel the sweat sticking to his skin freeze in an instant.

This subtle feeling is fleeting, and the black and white picture is instantly infused with color and becomes vivid. With a ding, the mechanical synthesized sound in his head sounded again.

And at this moment, the still picture also moved instantly. Kakashi was cut and attacked, and blood was all over the ground.

Naruto knew that this was Kakashi's stand-in technique, and ignored Sakura's screams on the side. I saw that the two ninjas thought they had solved Kakashi, and they went straight to Naruto, who seemed to be defenseless.

"Naruto, get out of the way!" Sakura shouted in horror.

But Naruto was unmoved, as if he was frozen in place. Sasuke, who was not far away, cut and gritted his teeth and threw out three shurikens.

Three shurikens temporarily pushed the two ninjas back, and that's when Naruto finally moved. But instead of backing down, he headed for the two men.

"Naruto! Dangerous! ”

Sasuke was also stunned, and after coming back to his senses, he didn't hesitate at all, grabbed the kunai and ran over there.

"Sakura-chan, protect Mr. Dazner."

Sakura only heard Sasuke's words, and then saw that both Naruto and Sasuke had gone for the two ninjas.

Her heart was pounding fast, and there was a trace of panic in her heart, and at the same time, there was a trace of inferiority. Even though it was their first time on a mission, the two of them didn't seem to be as afraid of fighting a ninja as they were.

Just as she lost her mind, Naruto's voice was heard in front of her.

"Damn! You're kidding me! ”

"Options! You come out for me! ”

Bang bang, the two misty ninjas had fallen to the ground with blue noses and swollen eyes, and Naruto was still muttering strange words on the side, beating him bitterly.

Sasuke stopped halfway through, also with a shocked expression. And Kakashi, who should have died, was standing aside intact, watching Naruto shake his head.
