A week after starting the mission, Shiraishi and the others gradually became familiar with the process of the ninja's mission.

Except for the wave of enemies encountered at the beginning, only on the fifth day, when I encountered the Sand Hidden Ninja lurking in the territory of the Fire Country, there was no more fighting.

Among the enemies encountered during this period, most of them were mid-ninja level sand ninjas, and only one was encountered by the upper ninja.

However, after Shuo Mao showed his overwhelming strength against the upper ninja, Shiraishi and the others became more aware of how unfathomable the strength of Shuo Mao, who was the captain and the guide of the upper ninja.

Although he has not seen how powerful the three ninjas praised by the demigods are in battle, Shuo Mao's strength is fundamentally different from that of ordinary upper ninjas.

If you have to say it, the strength of the other party is likely to be no longer able to be evaluated by the level of ninja.

"The tasks of the past few days have been very good, and you have cooperated very well, basically there are no mistakes that novices often make, just keep this rhythm."

After nightfall, the four of them surrounded a fire.

The burning fire can't help but drive away the surrounding darkness and bring a hint of warmth.

Because it is still early spring, the night air brings the cold of winter that is not far away.

Holding a grilled fish in his hand, Shuo Mao took a kettle from Shiraishi and smiled in an appreciative tone.

Shiraishi is a non-combat medical ninja, and he is the only one of the four with a backpack with plenty of water and food.

"Because the enemy was basically solved by Mr. Shuomao, you alone."

Ayane said with a smile.

The enemies encountered these two times, after one face, were almost completely wiped out, and even if there were fish that slipped through the net, they were all miscellaneous fish such as the middle ninja and the lower ninja.

And Ayane always observes the situation with her white eyes, and Liuli cooperates with the long-range attack of Fire Escape, basically without a frontal battle, so that those fish that slipped through the net are wiped out.

"Haha, don't say that, as a newbie, you've done a great job."

Shuo Mao knows some of the common problems of most newcomers, not only wants to be safe, but also longs to make meritorious contributions, be recognized by the people in the village, and eventually become a respected excellent ninja.

However, this path is not easy to follow, and most ninjas do not make it to the end.

Newcomers with such an attitude of meritorious service are too easy to die on the battlefield and in missions.

Such a novice ninja Sakumo has seen it countless times.

At the end of the day, all four of them were a little tired.

However, in order to ensure safety, not everyone can rest together, and someone must keep vigil.

So Shuo Mao arranged for Shiraishi and Ayane to keep the first half of the night, and then he and Ruri to keep the second half of the night.

In this way, once an enemy suddenly attacks, it will not fall into a state of embarrassment in a hurry.

In this regard, the three of them had no objection.

Shuo Mao and Ruri quickly fell asleep peacefully, and needed to get enough sleep before they had the energy to continue their mission the next day.

Shiraishi and Ayane walked to the other side and sat down, and the sound of the breeze blowing the leaves in their ears made the silence of the forest even more quiet.

Letting the evening breeze blow his cheeks and hair, Shiraishi enjoyed the rare silence.

"It's worthy of Shiraishi-kun, even in the face of a strong shinobi like Teacher Shuomao, he can hide it so perfectly."

Ayane walked over with a light step, expressing her admiration from the bottom of her heart.

"Because I'm a medical ninja, people don't pay attention to my strength. Medical ninjas like Tsunade Shinobi are a minority after all. ”

Shiraishi glanced at Ayane and responded with a smile.

The biggest impression of a medical ninja is that they are weak, and they are basically unable to form effective combat combat skills except for the use of medical ninjutsu.

This is also the reason why during the war when an enemy medical ninja is caught will not be killed casually.

On the one hand, the role of medical ninjas is great, and on the other hand, it is also because medical ninjas are weak enough to pose a threat.

A medical ninja like Tsunade, one of the three ninjas, is an exception after all.

Most medical ninjas are still like Shiraishi, and they don't have any achievements other than medical ninjutsu.

In order to ensure the smooth implementation of medical ninjutsu, medical ninjas must not only have natural talents, but also master a lot of medical knowledge, as well as precise chakra control ability.

This is also the main reason why the medical ninja does not have the ability to fight, learning endless professional knowledge, and constantly tempering his chakra control, has already consumed a lot of time, and there is no time to do the rest of the things.

"Really? Then you have to be careful, Sakumo-sensei is not an ordinary ninja, and if he finds out, the Hokage will soon find out. ”

Ayane is very jealous of Shuo Mao's strength.

The name of Konoha White Fang, even if they are newcomers, is also like thunder.

In Konoha's prestige, it is also above the three ninjas.

If you want to choose who is the strongest shinobi in Konoha, then Shuo Mao must get the most votes.

Although Shuo Mao himself doesn't think so, in the eyes of others, he is the deserved strongest shinobi in Konoha.

The closest shinobi to the Hokage's position.

"Don't worry, my chakra has always been kept to a minimum, even if you have white eyes or a perceptual ninja, when you see my chakra amount, you will think I'm just a lower ninja."

Shiraishi has long thought about this.

Although it is not entirely correct to determine the level of a ninja by the amount of chakra, most people in the ninja world think so.

The stronger the ninja, the more chakra will inevitably be less.

Shiraishi is not the kind of ninja who has an excessive amount of chakra, and his own chakra is not enough for him to squander, so he must use it sparingly.

Hearing Shiraishi say this, Ayane was relieved.

Then both of them quieted down, and Ayane kept her eyes open, occasionally turning her head to inspect the branches to avoid any mistakes.

Because of the caged bird, there will be a blind spot in the field of vision, so to prevent the enemy from accidentally rushing from the blind spot, you must turn your head to cover the blind spot in the field of vision.

Nothing happened in the first half of the night, and then Shiraishi and Ayane rested, and Shuo Mao and Ruri, who were the captains, began to watch the second half of the night.

And so the night passed, and nothing happened in the meantime.

In the morning, the four of them dealt with the traces of the scene, and after simply eating dry food, they continued to wander in the territory of the Fire Country.

There is also a detachment of the dark part of the operation to cooperate with the operation, if there is a dark joint, it will set off in the direction given by the dark part, if not, you can only search for the enemy everywhere and destroy it.

In order to ensure the safe transportation of supply lines and the safety of the towns in the Fire Country, these Sand Hidden Ninjas lurking in the Fire Country must be cleared one by one.

The four of them easily shuttled through the forest, the breeze passed by their ears, the sound of salsa between the leaves almost drowned out their footsteps, and from the gaps in the leaves above, the dappled light and shadow shone down, making the dim forest more illuminated, not eerie.

The four of them didn't say much along the way, and they maintained their full physical strength.

At this moment, Ayane suddenly accelerated, and at the same time Shuo Mao stopped on a tree branch.

"Mr. Shuomao."

"Enemy?"

Shuo Mao rested his hand on the handle of the white fang short knife behind his back, ready to unsheath at any moment.

Ruri also made a wary look, and the chakra gathered in his mouth, and the fire escape ninjutsu was ready to go.

"There are eleven ninjas, and five of them have very strong chakras, most likely the upper ninja."

Shinobi? Five?

Even Shuo Mao's brows furrowed, vaguely feeling that something was wrong.

Just as Shuo Mao was about to ask something, Ayane said in a solemn tone, "There are sentient ninjas in the enemy team, and they are coming towards us. ”

"It seems that there is no way to avoid it, so get ready to fight."

Since he lurked into the land of fire, the other party would send a special perception ninja, which was also expected by Shuo Mao, but he didn't expect to run into it so soon.

Whether this Sand Hidden Force is here to destroy the towns of the Fire Nation or to disrupt Konoha's supply lines, they must be stopped.

Ayane's white eye observation distance is a radius of five kilometers, and a distance of five kilometers can be reached in a few minutes as long as the ninja accelerates slightly.

Without the slightest tactical preparation.

Under the effect of white eyes and perceptual ninjutsu, the two sides can only fight head-on.

Cluck, cluck, cluck!

Eerie sound effects resound in the slightly gloomy forest, bringing a touch of horror to the atmosphere.

The voice came from far and near, and the attacker was dressed in a black robe and held a chakra knife in his hand.

"Be careful, it's a puppetry!"

After Ayane shouted these words, Ruri had already prepared her ninjutsu.

"Fire Escape: Hao Fireball Technique!"

A huge, ultra-high fireball sprinted towards the incoming black-robed golem.

At the moment when the fireball rushed out, an unknown number of black shadows suddenly appeared in front of him, and the target was very clear.

One of the ninjas wearing the Sand Hidden Forehead slapped his hands and pressed them to the ground, a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth:

"Earth Escape, Earth Flow Wall!"

The earthen wall held the fireball down, and in the explosion, flames and earth and rocks splattered.

The black-robed puppet was unharmed, the black robe was covered with a little dust and sparks, and a powerful chakra erupted from the bottom of the black robe, which disappeared in an instant, and when it reappeared, it had already jumped into the sky above Baishi and the others.

The body spun and landed in a strange twisted posture that was impossible for the human body to do, and the blade of the knife tore the atmosphere apart like a wheel.

Bite!

The White Fang Blade blocked the high-speed spinning chakra blade.

Immediately after that, from the two dark cuffs of the black-robed puppet, a chain as black as a long snake stretched out, with thorn-like blades on it, ready to wrap Shuo Mao's body around.

On the other side, seven ninjas surrounded the three of Shiraishi, condescendingly showing a fierce bloodthirsty smile.

There was no verbal exchange, no opening words, he took out his ninjutsu and weapons, and began to kill.

The moment they rushed up, Shiraishi took out a smoke bomb from his ninja bag and exploded on the ground, engulfing everyone inside.

In the midst of the smoke, Ayane's eyes were unhindered, and everyone's movements could be seen clearly.

The index and middle fingers are placed together, and a thin layer of chakra blades is condensed on them.

With a scream, the Sand Hidden Ninja, who wanted to sneak attack from behind, Ayane's two fingers turned into sharp blades and stabbed directly into the other party's heart.

Immediately after that, the chakra blades on the two fingers turned into small chakra streams, and the fierceness of the sand ninja's heart was extremely ferocious.

When Ayane pulled her finger out, it was just a chakra wrapped in it, and there was not a trace of blood stained on it.

The opponent's eyeballs were covered with bloodshot that were about to crack, his face was twisted and crumpled, and he endured unimaginable pain before dying, and then fell to the ground and died.
