I'm Naruto, Starting With Ashura.

Going out to perform an escort mission to the Country of Waves. The content of the mission this time is not a crusade, but escort and protection.

Ensuring the life safety of the client before the bridge is completed is the biggest proposition and the biggest surprise of this task.

What kind of conditions made the people of Wave Country rush to Konoha with all their strength, and even entrusted Konoha with protection?

If you think about it for a moment, you will know that this time the bridge building task must involve the interests of someone behind the scenes. For this benefit, the person behind it must come and kill Dazna who plans to build the bridge.

The person behind this was obviously watching from the door of Konoha.

Uchiha Sasuke glanced at the forest on the roadside.

He just felt two Chakra waves appear in the forest, and those eyes swept over them.

"Naruto.

"I know, but it has nothing to do with us."

is it him?

Uchiha Sasuke's eyes were fixed on Tazuna walking in front.

"B's mission?"

"He deliberately lowered the level of the commission. This person is really looking for death."

His eyes became slightly cold.

Inconsistency in mission information and mismatch in mission levels may cause the team to be wiped out at any time. With ninjas from other villages targeting the client, the difficulty of this task would be at least B level.

Without some preparation in advance, it is very likely that all of them will be killed.

"Don't worry too much. If you deliberately lower the level of the commission, then his retribution will come."

Uzumaki Naruto also hates this kind of people.

The Country of Waves is on the border of the Country of Fire. The Country of Waves has rich maritime trade. If the Country of Waves develops, it will only be better for Konoha. If the Country of Waves entrusts Konoha with some conditions, I believe Konoha will accept it even if it is classified as an A-level task, and even does not require payment.

But some people like to be smart people.

Without explaining the situation directly, he just lowered the task delegation level and directly provoked the ninja who took over the task. Do you really think that there is still something good to be gained?

"Little Sakura..."

Haruno Sakura slowed down a bit when her name was called.

"What's wrong, Naruto-kun?"

"Well, when we fight later, we don't have to pay too much attention to our client. We should focus on the actual battle."

Haruno Sakura was startled, but quickly regained her composure.

She didn't know why she had to enter the battle so soon, but she knew Naruto-kun's judgment was correct.

"Did these three brats find out so quickly?"

Hatake Kakashi, who was walking at the front, listened to all the words of these three brats.

He didn't say anything wrong with the way these three brats wanted to abandon the client directly. After all, the client's behavior was really annoying, and even a good-tempered person like him was a little angry.

It is indeed very inappropriate for the client to deliberately deceive and lower the level of the client. According to their Konoha regulations, it is okay to give up the task directly now.

However, the development of the Country of Waves is also beneficial to Konoha.

The Shadow Clone that Hatake Kakashi split before brought back the news that the situation in the Country of Waves definitely needs to be cleared up. Re-changing the poverty-stricken look of the Country of Waves can also allow the Country of Waves to bring actual maritime trade profits to Konoha.

This gave him a headache.

The work of protection now rests with him.

The road to the Country of Waves is quite long. The Country of Waves is a maritime port within Konoha and is the southernmost corner of the Country of Fire, closest to the sea.

If it were just a ninja going there, it would take a whole day to get there by ninja walking.

If the client still needs to be protected on the way to the Country of Waves, then the journey will definitely slow down a lot. What used to be a whole day now takes at least a week to arrive.

This is still the result of moving forward at the fastest speed. Considering that the client is not in good health, I am afraid that a week or two will be considered relatively fast.

A whole day's journey from noon to night is really nothing to a ninja's physical ability, but to an ordinary person's physical ability it has reached its limit.

"Well, that's it for today."

Hatake Kakashi noticed that the client, Tatsuna, was almost exhausted, so he stopped and prepared to spend the night outside.

"Mr. Dazuna, you can sort out your things. Even if you really want to go to the Land of Waves as soon as possible, you still need to pay attention to your physical strength. If something unexpected happens to you, it will be of no use even if you arrive in the Land of Waves early. .”

"I, I know..."

Tatsuna, who stopped, was also out of breath.

This day's itinerary basically never stopped, and there were many times when Dazna's physical strength could hardly keep up. If the belief in his heart was not still there, his body would no longer be able to hold on.

"He couldn't hold on any longer but he didn't ask for rest. It seems that things in the Country of Waves are more important than himself."

"This belief is quite good."

Although Hatake Kakashi was unhappy that such a client had commissioned such a wrong information, and deliberately commissioned a commission with a lower reward. But now this can be regarded as punishment in place, otherwise, it would have been time to rest long ago.

Suddenly, a dark wind came out of the forest.

A chain blade fell from above, aiming directly at the three Genin who were just about to sit down and rest.

".`!"

As soon as the chain blades were closed, the three Genin surrounded by the chain blades were instantly dead.

"ah!!!"

Dazna screamed in horror when he saw the three children on the ground with their heads missing.

But the two shadows rushed towards Hatake Kakashi who had not yet reacted at a faster speed.

"You got it!"

The two ninjas swung their chain blades at the same time, trying to repeat the sneak attack just now.

"!?" (Nohaha)

However, as the two ninjas were running, they were suddenly pulled by a huge force and staggered.

Turning around and looking over, Genin, who should have died under their chain blades just now, used the kunai in his hand to block the gap in the chain blades, and was still pulling them back hard.

"Damn! It's Body Replacement Technique!"

The two ninjas realized that the situation was not good and immediately wanted to disconnect the chain blade, but when they did so, two feet kicked them firmly in the stomach, kicking them back.

"puff!"

The huge force kicked their internal organs to pieces in an instant, and even spit out the broken internal organs and blood from their mouths.

This is not the end.

Where they flew back there were two fists waiting for them.

"go to hell!!!"

The fist with greater force took away their consciousness the moment it touched their bodies.
