After flipping through a few pages, a task attracted Hyōjin's attention.
"Exterminate the wandering ninjas in the Land of Fire …"
A-level tasks all involve battles between ninjas, so Hyōjin has three principles when choosing a task.
First, the distance must be close, because if the task location is too far away, it is easy to have accidents on the road. After all, the war has just ended, and the world is still chaotic.
Second, the strength of the enemy can't be too strong.
Third, the enemy's background must be simple, and they can't form a mess of hatred because of the task.
Therefore, this task of exterminating the wandering ninjas in the Land of Fire perfectly meets the three principles of Hyōjin's task selection, so his eyes lit up.
Handing the task list to Guy, Hyōjin pointed to the task of exterminating the wandering ninjas and asked: "What do you think of this task?"
Guy replied: "I have no objection!"
After receiving the task, the two didn't delay and immediately set off.
On the way, Hyōjin and Guy analyzed the detailed information about this task obtained from the task center.
The entrusting party of this task is the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. Recently, a group of wandering ninjas attacked several villages near the border of the Land of Fire, causing a large number of people and property losses.
According to the information, this group of wandering ninjas has five to seven people, and their identity is suspected to be the renegade ninjas of the Land of Mist.
Because of the war, the number of renegade ninjas has increased year by year. There are some in all major ninja villages, and Muye is no exception. However, most of these renegade ninjas are entrenched in small countries without any ninja villages. It is rare to see a renegade ninja who dare to attack the Land of Fire so blatantly.
Hyōjin said: "The other party dares to plunder in the Land of Fire, their strength is definitely not weak, don't be careless!"
Kai hurriedly nodded.
Seeing that Guy seems to be a little nervous, Hyōjin thought for a moment and said: "Don't be too nervous, these renegade ninjas only dare to attack civilians, their strength may not be very strong. As long as we perform normally, completing the task should not be a problem."
Guy clenched his fist: "I'm not afraid of them!"
A few days later.
Hyōjin and Guy chased all the way to a village that was attacked not long ago.
The village was in a mess. Corpses were everywhere, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood. Wails and cries could be heard without end.
Suijin came to the side of one of the survivors and asked, "We are ninjas sent by Konoha, please tell us, who attacked you?"
The survivor's expression was somewhat stupefied. He stared blankly at Hyōjin. After a while, he replied, "I don't know who those people are. They killed everyone they saw and left after killing them."
Hyōjin was not affected by the tragedy of the village. He calmly asked, "How many people are there in total? When did he leave? In what direction? "
The survivor pointed in a direction. "They went that way! I … I don't know how many people there are, and I don't know when they left. "
Hyōjin looked at the direction the survivor pointed at and said coldly, "Let's chase!"
Guy, who was already filled with righteous indignation, nodded fiercely, "Yes!"
In the Hyuga clan, tracking is a basic course. Every member of the Hyuga clan who has been on the battlefield is a tracking master. Hyōjin is naturally no exception, so he quickly found the traces left by the other party.
After a while, the two landed in front of a quagmire.
After checking the footprints in the quagmire, Hyōjin said, "There are a total of five to seven people, and their footsteps are a bit messy. It seems that they are in a hurry."
Guy said anxiously, "What are we waiting for, let's chase them!"
Hyōjin shook his head and pointed to a big tree not far away. "Don't panic, look at the moss on that tree!"
Guy looked at it and saw half a vague footprint on the moss. He wondered, "Why are there footprints there? Is there someone else chasing this group of wandering ninjas? "
The footprints on the tree not far away and the footprints in the quagmire obviously belong to a different group of people. If the footprints in the quagmire belong to the group of wandering ninjas, then the footprints on the tree should belong to another group of ninjas.
"Since we have already accepted the task, the village should not send anyone else, so I suspect that the other group of people who are chasing these wandering ninjas should be the people of the Mist Village."
Hyōjin's speculation is not without a target, because according to the intelligence, this group of wandering ninjas is a traitorous ninja of the Mist Village, so it is reasonable for the Mist Village to send a hunting force to kill them.
Guy was at a loss for a while because it involves other ninja villages. "Then what should we do?"
Hyōjin pondered for a moment and immediately said firmly, "Everything that hinders us from completing the task is an enemy!"
"But …"
"No but, let's continue to chase."
After chasing for a while, Hyōjin and Guy had to stop because two groups of ninjas were confronting each other in front of them.
There are four people on one side, all dressed as the assassins of the Mist Village. Only the leader does not wear a mask, but has a bandage wrapped around the lower half of his face. According to his figure and appearance, Hyōjin recognized that he seems to be Momoji Zabuza, also known as the "Demon Man".
On the other side of the confrontation, there were only two people, the Anbu of Konoha. One of them wasn't big, had white hair, and although he was wearing a fox mask, Kuroto still recognized him as the genius ninja of the same generation as him, Hatake Kakashi.
The two sides are full of gunpowder, and it seems that they will fight at any time.
Seeing that another Muye ninja arrived, Zabuza pulled out the long sword behind him and looked like he was about to fight.
Standing on the tree branch, Hyōjin put one hand on his waist and glanced at the ninjas of the Mist Village, looking arrogant and contemptuous, he said, "Get out of here!"
Zabuza was furious, "Do you want to die, boy!"
Hyōjin ignored Zabuza and ordered, "Guy, go teach him a lesson."
Guy has long been accustomed to listening to Hyōjin's orders along the way, not to mention that the other side is a ninja of the Mist Village, so after agreeing, he rushed towards Zabuza.
It seems that they didn't expect Hyōjin to be so arrogant, the Mist Assassins and the Muye Anbu were surprised, but both sides have concerns, so they didn't immediately make a move. They just let Zabuza and Guy fight one on one.
As a Taijutsu ninja, Guy attacked from close range, not giving the enemy a chance to use Ninjutsu.
Zabuza seems to be very confident in his sword skills, he is not afraid of Taijutsu, he waved his sword and fought with Guy.
For a time, the wind from the fist and the sword flashed!
At this time, Zabuza has a little reputation in the Mist Village. Although he hasn't been promoted to the Seven Swordsmen, he is also one of the best among his peers in the Mist Village. His moves are fierce and murderous!
Guy is also in a period of rapid growth, his speed and strength are increasing sharply every day, he is no longer the last in the school.
The battle between the two entered a white-hot state from the beginning, and the impact is getting wider and wider, causing the Mist Ninjas and the Muye Anbu to retreat a distance.
