Konoha's Zhige

After some fuss, they set off.

Hinata Chika and Uchiha Sasuke were at the front of the team. Byakugan's perception ability was most suitable for detecting unknown dangers. Sasuke was responsible for cooperating with her; Kakashi, Tatsuna and Nara Izumi followed closely behind, and the strongest Kakashi and Nara Izumi, who are good at control, personally protect the mission target; Naruto and Sakura are postponed, and Zhige moves flexibly to make up for the leaks.

This is because Kakashi simply understood their characteristics and made simple and suitable arrangements.

The sun was shining brightly in the sky, and it hadn't rained in the past few days. How could there be a puddle of water? Hinata Chika rolled her eyes and saw that there were indeed two enemies lying in wait.

After Hinata Chika made a gesture, Sasuke quickly reacted with 'Fire Release - The Great Fireball Technique'. Just when the fireball with a radius of three meters was about to hit, two ninjas dressed like wandering jumped out decisively.

A wandering ninja used the stagnant water to use 'Water Style - Water Formation Wall' to block Sasuke's Fire Style.

The collision between Fire Style and Water Style produced a large amount of water vapor. Taking advantage of the opponent's sight being blocked, Hinata Chika launched an attack with the 'Soft Fist Technique - Bagua Thirty-two Palms'. ’

Sasuke didn't hesitate to give in and hit the vital point of the water escape ninja with one kick.

There was a "clang" sound, and the two wandering ninjas were ready to release shurikens at the risk of their lives. Nara Izumi was already prepared to easily shoot them down with kunai, while Sakura stood in front of Tazna.

Before Naruto could react to the sudden change, the enemy was subdued, and his legs felt like they were filled with lead, unable to move.

"Well done Chika, Sasuke, Sakura and Izumi."

Kakashi praised.

Then he turned his gaze to the back, calming down Zhige who looked like he was on a trip, and Naruto who was trembling with fear, and was a little disappointed with the latter's performance.

"Is there something Mr. Tatsuna is hiding from us? Ninjas will not appear on C-level missions, and they will throw shurikens at you at the risk of their lives. Obviously you are their target."

Kakashi asked with a smile.

"This?"

Facing Kakashi's question, cold sweat broke out on Dazuna's forehead, hesitating and not knowing how to answer.

"This is difficult to handle. Since you concealed the level of the mission in advance, B-level and above missions have exceeded the scope of the genin team. I have the right to terminate this mission."

Kakashi said.

"Also, my student Naruto will be frightened. Obviously a mission of this level is not something he can accept. In order to ensure their safety, I'm sorry that this mission ends here."

"歘" The sound of kunai inserted into the palm of his hand made Naruto say firmly: "The mission continues. I will never be so scared that I can't move like before. I must become Hokage."

"The determination is good, but if the bleeding doesn't stop, you will die, Naruto."

Kakashi threatened Naruto with a smile. He was afraid that he would not be embarrassed. What he was afraid of was that Naruto would not be able to overcome this fear. Fortunately, he finally looked like something.

"Ah! No, I don't want to die like this!"

Naruto turned pale with fright.

After Kakashi bandaged Naruto, he said to Zhige: "Naruto has also expressed his confidence. What about you? From now on, you have no chance to express yourself. Please tell me your opinion."

"Yes, then I will also perform." Zhi Ge drew out his long blade and walked leisurely towards Dazuna: "Tell me, are you a spy sent by other countries to eliminate the new generation of ninjas in Konoha Village? "

There was a reason for the incident. Zhige knew about Dazuna's situation, but it did not mean that he approved of such behavior. Because poverty concealed the level of the mission, didn't he know that his actions would lead to the death of Konoha's genin? Probably just taking a chance!

Hey, why don't you play according to the routine? Kakashi wanted to say this, but let's go on, he also wanted to know the reason why Dazuna did this.

The shining sword, if Tatsuna was afraid of death, he would not go to Konoha alone, but he could not die here. He still had to complete the bridge that carried the hope of the Land of Waves.

"It's Cardo. The Country of Waves is an island country surrounded by islands, and Cardo controls the entire route. He never wants to see the completion of the Hope Bridge, and I am a thorn in his side."

"Then why in the first place"

"The Country of Waves is a poor country, even the daimyo cannot afford to pay for missions above B level."

Dazna took retreat as a path forward.

"It's reasonable for you to abandon the mission. I won't blame you. It's just that after I died, my grandson, who was less than six years old, cried to death, and my daughter will hate the Konoha ninjas for the rest of her life."

Hearing such shameless remarks, everyone in Kakashi had black lines on their faces, except Zhige who remained indifferent.

"I don't even have the money to raise a B-level mission. I'm curious as to why the Kingdom of Waves hasn't disappeared yet," Zhige said with a smile, saying very cruel words: "Because I didn't dare to resist in the first place, which led to the Cardo forces. It gets bigger and bigger, and then I don’t dare to resist anymore. I don’t know if I am right.”

"What do you know? They are all a group of unarmed villagers, how can they compete with the arrogant Cardo," Dazna said angrily, ignoring the sword in Zhige's hand.

Naruto stood up and complained: "Hey, you went too far."

"Whoever is born to be arrogant, in the final analysis, it is the reason why your country is too cowardly."

Just when Dazna wanted to refute, Zhige's next words left him speechless.

"So what if I help you build the so-called 'Hope Bridge' this time? It shouldn't be difficult for Cardo to destroy a bridge!"

Zhige's words gave Dazna a heavy blow in his heart.

At first, Kakashi thought that Zhige's words were a little too much, but he did not stop him. After all, he was not a mindless person like Naruto. Zhige was right, Mr. Dazuna, the one who carries the hope of the Land of Waves is definitely not If you cannot wake up to the 'Bridge of Hope' you call it, the country of Waves will soon be submerged in the tide of history.

"What do you say? The mission should continue?" Kakashi asked.

Naruto said without hesitation: "Of course I will continue. This is my first time leaving the village. How can I give up halfway!"

Although Uchiha Sasuke and Hinata Chika didn't speak, their firm eyes said everything.

Sakura was reluctant to continue the mission, but Sasuke agreed, so she could refuse.

Nara Izumi said that he would listen to everyone and it didn't matter to him.

Zhige spread his hands, they all agreed, could he still refuse, but what he was thinking in his heart was completely different from what he showed: Zabuza Momochi was the best person to test his strength, Gaara before, he The fight was timid, for fear that Gaara would release Shukaku, which was not satisfying at all.

Kakashi said calmly: "Okay, the mission continues."
