Chapter 23 Tracking and Encounters
After turning a few pages, a task attracted Hinata Mitsuki's attention.
"Extinguish the Wandering Ninjas in the Fire Country..."
A-level missions involve combat between ninjas, so there are three principles for Hyuga Mitsuki to choose tasks.
First, the distance is close, because if the mission location is too far, accidents are likely to occur on the road. After all, the war has just ended and the world is still very chaotic.
Second, the enemy's strength cannot be too strong.
Third, the enemy's background should be simple and you should not make messy enemies because of the mission.
Therefore, the task of extinguishing Wandering Ninja in the Fire Country perfectly conforms to the three principles of Hyuga Mitsuki's selection of tasks, so he shines.
He handed the mission list to Kai, and Hinata Mitsuki pointed on the mission to wipe out the Wandering Ninja and asked, "How is this mission?"
Kai replied, "I have no objection!"
After receiving the task, the two of them set off immediately without delay.
On the way, Hinata and Kai analyzed the detailed information about the mission obtained from the mission center.
The commissioner of the mission is Daming of the Kingdom of Fire. Recently, a group of wandering ninjas have successively attacked several villages of the Kingdom of Fire near the border of the Kingdom of Wa, causing a large amount of losses of people and property.
Information shows that there are five to seven wandering ninjas in this group, and their identities are suspected to be Mizuno, with great strength and cruel means.
Because of the war, the number of defecting ninjas has increased year by year, and there are major ninjas, and Konoha is no exception. However, most of these rebel ninjas who escape from war are entrenched in small countries without ninjas. It is rare for rebel ninjas who dare to attack the Fire Country so blatantly.
Hinata Mitsuru instructed: "The other party dares to rob in the Kingdom of Fire, and his strength is definitely not weak, don't be careless!"
Kai nodded quickly.
Seeing that Kai seemed a little nervous, Hinata thought for a while and said, "Don't be too nervous. These rebellious ruthless people who only dare to attack civilians may not be very strong. As long as we perform normally, there should be no problem in completing the task."
Kai clenched his fists: "I'm not afraid of them!"
A few days later.
Hinata Mitsuki and Kai followed along and came to a village that was just attacked not long ago.
The village was in a mess, with corpses all over the ground, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and wailing and crying were heard incessantly.
Hinata Mitsuki came to a survivor and asked, "We are ninjas sent by Konoha. Please tell us who attacked you?"
The survivor's expression was a little bit tucked. He stared at Hinata Mirror in a daze, and then replied for a while: "I don't know who those are. They kill them when they see them and leave after they finish killing them."
Hinata Mitsuki was not affected by the tragic situation in the village and asked calmly: "How many people do they have in total? When did they go? In which direction did they go?"
The survivor pointed in a direction: "They went from that direction! I...I don't know how many of them there are, nor when they went."
Hinata Mitsuka looked at the direction the survivor pointed, and then said coldly: "Let's chase!"
Kai, who had already been indignant, nodded fiercely: "Yes!"
In the Hinata clan, tracking is a basic course. Every Hinata clan member who has been on the battlefield is a tracking expert. Hinata Mitsuki is no exception, so he quickly found the traces left by the other party.
After a moment, the two fell into a quagmire.
After checking the footprints in the mud, Hinata said, "There are five to seven people on the other side, and their steps are a bit messy, and it seems that they are in a hurry to go."
Kai said anxiously: "What are you waiting for? Let's chase after you!"
Hinata Mitsuki shook her head and pointed to a big tree not far away: "Don't panic, look at the moss on that tree!"
Kai looked around and saw half a blurry footprint on the moss, and he wondered: "How can there be footprints there? Is there anyone else tracking this group of wandering ninjas?"
The footprints on the tree not far away are obviously not the same group of people as the footprints in the mud. If the footprints in the mud are from that group of wandering ninjas, the footprints on the tree should be from another group of ninjas.
"Since we have taken over the mission, the village should not send anyone else, so I suspect that the other group of people who tracked these wandering ninjas should be the people from Fujihiko."
Hinata's speculation was not aimless, because according to the information, this group of wandering ninjas is Fujihi's rebellious ninjas, so it is reasonable for Fujihi to send a hunting force.
When it comes to other ninja villages, Kai lost his mind for a moment: "What should we do?"
Hinata thought for a while, then said firmly: "Everything that hinders us from completing our mission is the enemy!"
"But.."
"No, let's continue chasing."
After chasing for a while, Hinata Mitsuki and Kai had to stop because two groups of ninjas confronting each other appeared in front of them.
There were four people on one side, all dressed in the Fujihi Assassination Army. Only the leader did not wear a mask, but wrapped the lower half of his face with a bandage. According to his figure and appearance, Hinata recognized that he seemed to be the "ghost man" Momoto No Slash.
There were only two people in the confrontation, which was Konoha's Anbu. One of them was not big and had white hair. Although he was wearing a fox mask, Hinata still recognized him as a genius ninja of the same period as him, Haki Kakashi.
Both sides are full of gunpowder and seem to fight at any time.
When he saw another Konoha Ninja arrived, he pulled out the long sword behind him, as if he was about to take action.
Standing on the tree branch, Hinata Mitsuki put her hands on her waist and glanced down at the ninjas who were in the assassination army with a arrogant expression and said contemptuously: "Get out!"
Aibuzhang Wenyan was furious: "Are you looking for death, boy!"
Hinata Mitsuru ignored him and ordered, "Kai, go and teach him a lesson."
Along the way, Kai had long been used to following Hinata's instructions, not to mention that the other party was Fujihi's ninja, so he agreed and rushed towards him with a loud shout.
It seemed that he hadn't expected Hinata Mitsu to be so arrogant. The Kirigiri Assassination Force and Konoha Anbu were both surprised. However, both sides were worried and did not take action immediately. They just made way for a piece of area and allowed Aobuzhan and Kai to fight one-on-one.
As a physical ninja, Kai attacked closely from the moment he came up, and did not give the enemy the chance to perform ninja.
No matter how he kills, he seems to be very confident in his sword skills, and he is not afraid of physical skills at all. He will fight with Kai in a group after swinging his sword.
For a moment, the fist wind gushed and the sword light flashed!
At this time, Aibuzhan is already well-known in Wuyin. Although he has not been promoted to the seven ninja swords, he is also the best among Wuyin's peers. His moves are fierce and his murderous aura is everywhere!
Kai is also in a period of rapid growth in strength, and his speed and strength have increased dramatically every day, so he is no longer the tail of the crane in the school.
The two of them entered a white heat from the beginning, and the impact became wider and wider, causing the bystander Ninja and Konoha Anbu to retreat for a distance.
