!

Kai felt that he had no reason to refuse Shiyuan's invitation.

He really hopes to get a stage to show himself, so now that the stage has been set up, why doesn't he get on it?

Tokimoto was his classmate and a member of the Sarutobi family, so there was no reason to punish a little civilian ninja like him.

Shi Yuan smiled and stretched out his hand: "Then, happy cooperation!"

Being able to get a strong teammate like Kai gave him more confidence in the upcoming tasks.

Kai was stunned for a moment, then quickly grabbed Shi Yuan's hand with both hands and held it tightly: "Thank you for your trust in me, I will not let you down! When will we start the mission?"

Kai looked happy at the thought of being able to take on a high-level mission, and the words "can't wait" were clearly written on his face.

"Let's meet at the mission center in half an hour. You obviously need to go back and prepare. This mission is far away from the village."

Shi Yuan glanced at Kai's appearance at this moment. He hadn't had time to lower his rolled-up trousers, and there were still some mud marks on his feet.

Kai across from me also noticed Shi Yuan's gaze and looked slightly embarrassed: "10 minutes is enough. Please Shi Yuan, please wait for me at the mission center for 10 minutes. I will arrive on time!"

he said seriously.

"Okay then, I'll be waiting for you at the mission center. It's your first time to team up for a mission, so don't be late."

Shi Yuan reminded Kai with a slightly joking tone.

"understand!"

Kai looked excited and disappeared from Shi Yuan's sight in an instant.

On the streets of Konoha, there was a green figure running wildly.

Two minutes earlier than the expected 10 minutes, Shi Yuan saw Kai rushing to the mission center.

"Kai! This way!"

His butt had just warmed the stool when Kai had already arrived, which also showed that Kai was really serious about this mission.

Hearing Shiyuan's voice, Kai immediately ran over from the door.

Without any nonsense, Shi Yuan took Kai to the mission collection window.

It’s the same receptionist.

"I want to receive the mission just now!"

Shi Yuan gestured to the other party and said seriously.

Standing behind Shi Yuan, a somewhat impatient Kai tiptoed to look at the task on Shi Yuan's finger. He looked surprised and then whispered in Shi Yuan's ear: "Shi Yuan, is this an A-level task?!"

Do you accept this kind of mission casually?

Could it be that he has been doing low-level tasks for a long time and cannot keep up with the times?

Although Kai is fearless, would it be a little too confident for just the two of them to take on an A-level mission?

"Believe in yourself. Besides, I have the experience of completing A-level tasks several times."

Shi Yuan turned around and gave Kai a confident look. In fact, he had only completed two A-level missions with full calculation. Among them, the one about Shennong was the one he missed.

Kai heard the meaning of Shi Yuan's words, and then his face hardened, and he looked at Shi Yuan again: "I didn't expect you to be so strong, Shi Yuan."

Having said this, he felt a little ashamed.

He became a chuunin much earlier, but so far, he has completed very few B-level missions, and most of the time can only be found in C-level or even D-level missions.

So when Tu heard that Shi Yuan had completed an A-level mission, he was naturally shocked.

"Fortunately, I believe you can do it too, so I accept this task, do you have any questions?"

At this time, Shi Yuan remembered that Kai was also his teammate. At least he had to consider the other party's feelings when accepting tasks, and he couldn't just take whatever he said.

Kai scratched his head a few times with his hand and showed his white teeth: "I don't have a problem. Maybe this is a sign of living up to my efforts. I won't hold you back, Shiyuan!"

"Well!"

Shi Yuan turned to the receptionist again to confirm what he meant.

A few minutes later, under the strange gaze of the ninja responsible for registration, Shi Yuan set off with Kai.

The targets of this mission are probably located near several official roads in the east of the Country of Fire. The other party does not have an actual stronghold, but they move around to commit crimes within a certain range.

At first, the village defined them as a group of rogue ninjas, but the Konoha ninjas who fought against each other last time and escaped back exposed their true identity.

According to Shi Yuan's estimation, it would take at least three days for the two of them to travel without stopping.

Along the way, Shi Yuan explained some matters related to the battle to Kai, and also briefly introduced the enemy's intelligence.

I found that Kai seemed a little nervous, and his expression was as tense as a eldest daughter sitting on a sedan chair for the first time.

So, Shi Yuan patted his shoulder while walking:

"Relax, as long as we are not careless, there will be no big problem in completing the mission."

Shi Yuan was very confident about this mission. After he carefully selected the mission, it was no surprise that he did not have the ability to cause great danger to himself.

Unless something goes wrong with this mission?

Thinking of this, Shi Yuan shook his head.

The last escort mission was just an accident. This mission did not involve any key people. How could an accident happen so easily?

Kai's body obviously relaxed a little under Shi Yuan's comfort. He stared ahead: "This is the first time to perform such a mission, so I feel a little uneasy."

Shi Yuan smiled understandingly, and his pace quickened a bit.

……

Two days later, the two of them had reached the scope mentioned in the mission.

Along the way, their speed always maintained at a high value.

So the journey that was originally expected to take three days was now completed by two people in a little more than two days.

After arriving here, Shi Yuan did not immediately take Kai into action.

Although he was recovering his physical condition while traveling, it was not in the best condition after all, so Shi Yuan suppressed Kai who was a little excited, and the two of them first found a safe place to adjust their condition.

After a few hours of rest, Shi Yuan and Kai officially started taking action.

The scope of the enemy's activities mentioned in the mission is relatively general, so Shi Yuan expected that it would take them both a lot of time to search carefully.

But obviously, plans can never keep up with changes.

"Shi Yuan, there's a situation!"

Kai's ears moved and he noticed movement in the distance.

Shi Yuan also sensed something abnormal. Not only did he hear an abnormal sound, he also smelled a strong smell of blood.

Looking at each other, they used the cover of the surrounding trees to fly towards the distance quietly.

In a canyon that crosses two mountains.

The two finally discovered the source of the anomaly - a caravan that was attacked.

On the road, all the trucks were ablaze with flames, and no less than twenty lifeless corpses were scattered on the ground.

Some of them are caravan guards, some are ordinary members of the caravan, old and young, male and female.

But there was no difference at all. The reason for their death was that they were killed by one blow without any ability to fight back.

Like a massacre!

Logically speaking, those guards controlled chakra and shouldn't be that unbearable.

But that's what it is.

Seeing such a tragic situation, Shi Yuan couldn't help but frown, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Resisting the discomfort in his heart, he walked to the body and began to inspect it.

There were about three enemies who took action.

The wounds of the people who died on the ground were roughly divided into three different types of blades.

"These guys are going to kill you next time!?"

Kai had some difficulty accepting the scene at this time. One of the taboos of ninjas was to attack civilians.

Obviously, the people who attacked the caravan had no scruples in this regard.

With the sword in hand, he killed a group of people who clearly had no ability to resist.

Simply unforgivable!

Kai's eyes widened, with anger burning in them.

He couldn't accept the existence of such a ninja with no martial ethics!

"Kai! The enemy should be running in that direction, let's chase him!"

Applying his experience and knowledge to the survey, Shi Yuan quickly discovered some information worth paying attention to.

Then quickly, he determined the direction in which the enemy who attacked the caravan left.

The ninjas active within the mission scope should obviously be their mission targets.

"it is good!"

Kai nodded solemnly and quickly followed Shi Yuan's pace. Before leaving, he looked back and glanced at the corpses on the ground.

Tracking skills are a required course for ninjas.

Although Kai loves physical skills, he still has some research in this area, coupled with his good eyesight and the fact that the enemy did not hide any traces, so they followed the signs and pursued them smoothly.

A few minutes later, the two came to an open space.

There were many abandoned debris around the clearing, and there were three or four extinguished fires.

Noticing that there was no hidden danger around them, the two came closer to check.

After checking the traces left by the enemy, Shi Yuan said carefully: "It seems that the number of the opponent should not exceed ten. This seems to be the place where they stayed last night? They knew in advance that the caravan would pass here today, so they came here Guard?"

Judging from the situation at the caravan just now, it was not more than an hour before it was attacked, so Shi Yuan speculated.

Kai squatted on the ground and touched a footprint with his hand, with a serious and serious expression on his face: "These footprints are very messy, with countless layers on top of each other. Obviously the other party has been here for a long time. This should be It was a premeditated action."

Kai suppressed his inner anger and patiently collected all useful information.

He seems to be a very reckless person, but in fact he is brave and careful.

The outward appearance of carelessness is just an attitude towards his life.

"Indeed, but what is the purpose of these guys?!"

Shi Yuan looked at Kai with confusion on his face.

After this group of Kumo ninja attacked the caravan and killed the people, the goods were not taken away but destroyed on the spot.

So what's the point of doing this?

Moreover, Shi Yuan still had another doubt.

Although he has never fought against Kumogakure, he is still one of the five major ninja villages, so he naturally has the reputation of belonging to the five major ninja villages.

But why is there no principle to massacre civilians?

"You'll know when you find them!"

Kai stood up slowly, looked around to make sure nothing was missing, and then said slowly.

"Then let's keep chasing!"

Shi Yuan no longer wastes energy on this temporary stronghold that was obviously abandoned by the enemy.

Kai recognized Shi Yuan's determination.

So, the two quickly left here and continued the pursuit.

After more than half an hour, Shi Yuan and Kai leaned over and stopped again.

After so long of tracking, they finally caught up with the group of ninjas who attacked the caravan.

Comparing the information in the intelligence, Shi Yuan also confirmed that this group of people was the target of his and others' mission - the group of Kumogakure ninjas without a doubt!

Holding their breath and concentrating, the two of them observed each other from a distance.

From their clothing, they could not find anything that could directly prove the identity of the other party such as Kumogakure's forehead protector.

But judging from their skin color and undisguised tattoos, their identity as Kumogakure was not wrong.

There are seven people in total on the other side, and each of them looks extremely strong. They don't look like simple characters.

However, Shi Yuan, who was keenly observant, still discovered something. Two of the seven people had some injuries.

But this information is actually not very critical.

What can be seen with the naked eye is superficial information. Only by digging carefully can we obtain in-depth information.

The two continued to wait and see and did not act rashly.

The more he observed the other party's behavior, the more Shi Yuan felt a hint of violation.

There is absolutely no doubt that the enemy comes from Kumogakure.

But whether the other party belongs to Kumogakure's army remains to be discussed.

Although the seven enemies are a team, everyone is separated by a certain distance when resting, which seems extremely abnormal.

It's like... they don't trust each other.

This idea popped into Shi Yuan's mind, but then he couldn't help but smile and felt that he was thinking too much.

The enemies are all from Kumogakure, so how can there still be distrust between them? !

Kai beside Shi Yuan turned his head and looked over, pointed his finger in the direction of the enemy, and then made several gestures.

In his opinion, the seven enemies are not weak in strength. If they continue to observe, they will put themselves and others in danger.

Because he had never seen Shi Yuan take action, although Shi Yuan mentioned that he had completed an A-level mission before, that could not be used as a basis for the battle.

So out of caution, Kai had plans to evacuate temporarily.

"Look again!"

Shiyuan gestured in response to Kai.

It's really because the other party's behavior is so bizarre that it doesn't even have logic to reconcile itself.

After Kai received Shi Yuan's response, he held his breath and moved to the side.

He planned to change his position to observe the enemy.

click--

He stepped on a dry branch, and the crisp sound broke the atmosphere.

The air suddenly froze.

Shi Yuan also looked at Kai with wide eyes, a complicated look on his face.

His black and white eyes stared at Kai, looking a little dull.

Although the place where the two of them were hiding was not close to the enemy, this sound was enough for the ninjas!

Sure enough, the seven enemies in the distance reacted quickly and stood up directly to look at the position of Shi Yuan and others.

"who?!"

one of the enemies yelled.

Then, several other people also gathered around.

Kai looked embarrassed. He didn't know whether to lift the foot that broke the branch or keep putting it down.

Shi Yuan sighed in his heart, knowing that since he was exposed, he stopped hiding and jumped out from the hiding place and landed in the open space.

A ninja like Kai who always brings surprises to his companions might really not be able to control the situation if he doesn't have some skills.

Seeing Shi Yuan jump out of the cover, Kai fell to Shi Yuan's side not to be outdone.
