Konoha's Embrace of Shadows

"I didn't expect this old man to be so generous this time and give out so much extra money. I will have to make a fuss with him next time I take on a mission. .1kanshu"

Kushina took out the scroll and read the contents of the mission.

Generally speaking, the bounty for a C-level mission is only taels, but for Kushina's ordinary task of conquering beasts, the maximum bounty is taels.

And to make Sarutobi Hiruzen grit his teeth and say one hundred thousand ryo, it must be to appease Kushina.

"Kushina-sensei, when do we leave?"

Genji seemed to have seen the fist blade waving to him, and couldn't help but ask.

Kushina closed the scroll and said:

"Let's go. Although the time stipulated in the mission is very tight, it is not very far from Konoha, so we have plenty of time. Go back and prepare, and then set off after lunch."

"it is good!"

Yuanji nodded in agreement, turned around and left.

At the same time, in the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood in front of the window, looking at the leaving figures of Kushina and Genji, and chuckled: "It's really interesting. It seems that this little guy is still very satisfied with Kushina. Of!"

Don't think that anyone can let Kushina fool around with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Suddenly, behind Sarutobi Hiruzen, a man wrapped in a black robe suddenly appeared. He knelt down on one knee and said solemnly: "Lord Hokage, what are your orders?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not turn around, but said calmly:

"Kushina will take her disciples out to complete the mission for three days, and let the ANBU send two people to follow them secretly. In case of emergency, be sure to protect their safety!"

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

"If the situation is urgent, bring Kushina back first!"

"I understand!"

The man nodded and then slowly disappeared into the Hokage's office.

How could a jinchuriki go out without someone to protect him? Even in the village, before Kushina became a jounin, there was always someone to protect him.

After Genji came out of the Hokage Building, he went straight home.

Because the mission location was not far away, Genji just came back to replenish his ninja tools and brought a bag of military food pills with him, which was a must-have for home travel.

After cleaning up, Genji walked out of the room. When passing by Tsunade's room, he thought for a while. He would be out for who knows how many days, so he thought it would be better to say hello to Tsunade.

giggle!

Genji knocked on the door and waited for a long time before hearing shuffling footsteps in the house.

After the door opened, Tsunade smelled of alcohol. She obviously had no money and could only drink at home. When she saw it was Genji, she immediately said in a dissatisfied tone: "Kid, what's going on?"

"Tsunade-sama, I want to go out with Kushina-sensei for some training, and I came here specifically to talk to you."

"You came to disturb me just for this trivial matter? I'm afraid you're a little distracted!"

Tsunade said, raising her hand and flicking a finger on Genji's forehead.

boom!

Genji rolled on the ground several times before reluctantly standing up, covering his forehead.

"Damn, Tsunade has such a bad temper!"

He looked at Tsunade who had closed the door, cursed a few times before leaving the house.

But he never noticed that Tsunade's door opened slightly, and a pair of drunken beautiful eyes stared blankly at him as he left, with a trace of worry flashing through them.

Originally, Genji thought he would arrive long before Kushina, but before he reached the gate of Konoha, he had already seen the bright red-haired Kushina standing at the gate looking around from a distance.

Compared to Genji, who has never left Konoha Village, Kushina, whose ADHD has not yet been cured, is even more excited.

After seeing Genji coming, Kushina quickly registered the reason for going out with the gatekeeper ninja, and then officially set off with Genji to the mission location.

Along the way, Kushina was not idle, and told Genji the details of the mission.

A hundred kilometers away from Konoha, there is a high mountain and a small village at the foot of the mountain. Because the Fire Country is not a battlefield to begin with, even if enemy ninjas invade, they will not be idle to deal with a small village.

Therefore, the entire village is made up of ordinary people, and there are no ninjas. They rely on the mountains to survive and rely on hunting to make a living.

But recently, a strange creature suddenly appeared in the mountains. Several hunters who went up the mountain had died. The village couldn't bear it anymore, so they went to Konoha to issue such a mission.

"It's really a simple task!"

After hearing this, Genji complained that for ordinary people, creatures that are difficult to deal with can be easily killed by any genin.

"Genji, your attitude is wrong! Ninjas cannot take the level of the mission lightly."

Kushina rarely looked serious and said solemnly to Genji.

Although she usually looks carefree, she is very cautious in her attitude towards tasks, even if it is a small C-level task.

"Haha, it's mainly because Kushina-sensei is here."

In this regard, Genji is telling the truth. No matter how powerful the creature is, can it still be worth the nine tails in Kushina's body?

"Okay, stop flattering, hurry up and get to that village today!"

"Hi!"
