After a brief tidying up, Shi Yuan planned to meet his teammates who were about to accompany him on this mission.

The appointed time was around two o'clock in the afternoon, which was a time mentioned by Sandai before, and the location was very ordinary, without that sense of mystery.

Shi Yuan arrived at the location more than ten minutes early.

This is a public training ground, adjacent to a large forest behind.

The mission to communicate with Kusagakure this time was just a normal team mission, and Tokiyuan completed it as the leader of the team.

It should also be explained here that the status of Tokigenjounin was directly raised to the official level of jounin by the third generation after the last mission.

There were three other ninjas in the team, namely Itachi Uchiha, whose name Tokiyuan was familiar with, Muta Aburame, whose name he had barely heard of, and Tokuma Hyuga, whose name he had a slight impression of.

Among the three, Uchiha Itachi is definitely the strongest. Shiyuan guessed that the opponent should have the combat power of a jounin at this time. After all, the last time he saw the opponent, he noticed that the opponent was already a three-magatama level pupil ninja.

Without showing up immediately, Shi Yuan fell on a branch and observed the two people who were about to become his temporary subordinates and had already arrived at their location in advance.

This time he went to Kusagakure to perform a mission. If Shigen really believed the Sandaime and thought the mission was simple, then his life would have been almost in vain.

Will simple tasks require the use of his Sarutobi Tokigen?

This is not to boast. Although he has not become a strategic presence in the village, the news that he has just defeated the Raikage is still circulating in the village. Shiyuan's strength is naturally very strong, and it is not good for such a ninja to execute a The mission is completely overqualified, and the third generation has not reached such an old fool's point.

As for why the third-generation old man didn't explain it directly when he said it, it must be that Konoha didn't know much about the situation on Kusagakure's side, so he couldn't tell anything.

Furthermore, a ninja of Shiyuan's level has his own judgment. The third generation absolutely believed in Shiyuan's personal ability, so after giving certain core requirements, he allowed Shiyuan to perform on his own.

Therefore, in view of this reason, Shiyuan still needs to observe the situation of his teammates, and the focus is naturally on the two except Uchiha Itachi.

After all, Itachi's strength will never hold him back.

"I didn't expect to go on a mission with Muta this time. It seems like we haven't seen each other for a long time?"

Apparently Hyuga Tokuma and Aburame Muta were old acquaintances, so the two of them stood together and started chatting.

"Well... although I am very happy to be recognized by Tokuma at this time, I still have something to say."

Muta is a boy, but he has very confusing long hair, and his facial features are relatively soft, so people who are unfamiliar with him will take him as a girl at first glance.

Shi Yuan obviously thought that the other party was a woman just now. He didn't react until he heard the other party's voice, so his expression was a bit stunned.

"Oh? What are you talking about?"

Tokuma was surprised. He and Muta were classmates, and he knew the latter's temper very well. The other person rarely spoke actively, but at this time he seemed to have something to say.

"We haven't seen each other for a long time. You had pork chop rice and two bowls of red bean soup for lunch today. At that time, I was eating dry noodles one meter away from you."

"Huh? Is there any?"

Tokuma was a little embarrassed. Judging from the food he had just eaten, he probably had lunch in the same store, but why didn't he see Muta who was only one meter away from him?

"Sure enough... I was ignored again with my low sense of presence!"

Muta seemed not to be surprised. He pushed the green sunglasses on the bridge of his nose upwards with the middle finger of his right hand, and then said to Tokuma.

"It's okay, Muta. I just didn't notice you right away because I was too hungry. Now, don't I see you?"

Hinata Tokuma approached Muta in a panic and explained.

Muta is a ninja from the Aburame family, so he naturally inherited the "invisibility" attribute that seems to be born from the other family. As soon as he stands in a crowd, he will have a presence debuff, and sometimes he will subconsciously ignore it when his eyes glance over the opponent. .

"That's true. Besides, I'm used to this daily routine. This doesn't prevent me from continuing to perform my mission."

There was a trace of calmness on Mutian's expression, as if he was stating an extremely ordinary thing.

"By the way, do you know who our other teammate is?"

Tokuma saw that the other party no longer cared about the things he had ignored before, so he started chatting about another topic.

"I don't know, but I know who our leading jounin is."

"It's Sarutobi Tokigenjounin, the powerful ninja who defeated the Raikage not long ago! He is also the strongest of this generation of the Sarutobi family! I have met him many times before, but I have never had a chance to talk to him. "

Before Muta could announce the answer, Tokuma answered it himself.

In this village now, who would know the names Sarutobi Tokigen and Uchiha Shisui if they only have a little knowledge about them?

"Yes."

Muta nodded and looked around.

They didn't know each other's teammates for the mission. Apart from the information that the team leader was Sarutobi Tokigen, they could only find out about the other teammates after they got together.

Feeling that the bugs in his body were a little restless, but he couldn't explain why, as if a dangerous person appeared around him, Mutian looked around with some vigilance.

Nothing unusual?

He suppressed Chong Zi's emotions, and his eyes behind his sunglasses did not immediately relax.

The insect's sense of danger was probably correct. Maybe the opponent was too strong, so he couldn't detect it.

"What's wrong, Muta?"

Tokuma looked strangely at his companion who was a little distracted as he spoke.

"It's nothing."

There was still no discovery at all, and Mutian also guessed something.

"Has it been discovered?"

Shiyuan looked at the vigilant Aburame clan ninja. It was clear that he had concealed his aura and chakra fluctuations, but he could still be discovered by the opponent. The Aburame clan's perception due to the family's secret technique was indeed a bit abnormal.

Looking at the other party's gaze, Shi Yuan was sure that he had not been found at his exact location, but the other party obviously knew of his arrival, and at most he could not determine his location.

Whoosh!

No longer covering up, he activated the teleportation technique and appeared in front of the two people.

The two people immediately turned around and looked over, their expressions wary at first, then relaxed.

"Jōnin Tokigen!"

They looked at Shi Yuan and shouted respectfully. Shi Yuan was a few years older than them and stronger than them, so they naturally had to show their attitude.

"Hello."

Shi Yuan nodded slightly as a greeting.

Immediately, the three of them stopped talking, and just looked at each other with vague eyes.

"We will talk about this mission after everyone is gathered."

There was another Uchiha Itachi who hadn't arrived, so Tokiyuan explained softly to the other two chuunin who kept looking at him.

"understand!"

They responded, and it seemed that they quickly assumed their identities, and immediately regarded Shi Yuan as the captain or leader.

Muta, who was wearing sunglasses, seemed to have an expression several times more nervous than Tokuma, and even Tokuma standing beside him could clearly see it.

Approaching and touching the other person's shoulder, Tokuma asked with his eyes.

Mutian poked at his sunglasses again and shook his head.

"The bugs in your body seem to be very restless. Is it because of me?"

Shi Yuan naturally noticed Mutian's abnormality, so he asked.

Under his gaze, bugs kept crawling in and out near the opponent's neck, like ants who were anxious but helpless when someone blocked the entrance of the hole.

"Senior Shiyuan is unexpectedly strong, so they are a little uneasy."

Mutian spoke directly and did not hide anything.

"Feel sorry."

Shi Yuan rubbed his head, and then reduced the aura fluctuations in his body again, and even reduced the power of Shennong's secret technique that was no longer running all the time to a minimum.

Of course, this was nothing to him.

Feeling that the anxiety of the bugs in his body was decreasing, Muta's eyes flashed with suspicion behind his sunglasses.

"Muda, you are really as sensitive as before!"

Tokuma said to Muta, but the latter didn't say anything, just nodded and showed a slightly pale smile.

"Well, it looks like everyone is here!"

At this moment, Shi Yuan suddenly turned his head and looked to the side.

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure appeared where Shi Yuan was looking.

Dressed in black, with a ninja sword stuck to his back like Shisui, he was undoubtedly Itachi Uchiha.

Itachi is already considered one of the official members of the Anbu. Although he is still young, he is not an ordinary ninja. With him and Tokimoto involved in this mission, the mission may be much more complicated than imagined.

"Senior Shiyuan!"

As soon as Itachi arrived, he bowed slightly to Shiyuan, then nodded slightly and said hello to the other two people.

"Then let's start talking about the mission..."

Without further ado, Shiyuan recited the information in the file handed to him by the Third Generation, and then expressed some of his own opinions.

The other three did not show that sense of relaxation, and Uchiha Itachi kept grimacing, as if the situation was serious.

Do you feel like you're the only one in the team who doesn't care?

Shi Yuan shook his head and continued: "Then that's it for today. You three can get to know each other here for the rest of the time. We'll go out at seven o'clock tomorrow morning."

It turned into white smoke with a bang, leaving the three of them looking at each other.

The purpose of his coming here was to see his teammates and explain the departure time, so as soon as the matter was over, he naturally left directly.

"A shadow clone?"

Muta felt goosebumps appear on his skin.

Sarutobi Tokiyuan is only a few years older than the three people here, and even younger than Kakashi before him, but his strength has reached a terrifying level.

Tokuma naturally looked like he had seen a ghost. Although he did not open his Byakugan, he could still feel the chakra surging in the body of the source jounin just now, so he never had the idea that this was a shadow clone, but just now...

As for Itachi Uchiha, he was perhaps the only one who was not surprised. After he appeared here, he noticed that there was something a little strange about Senior Miyamoto Shigen. Although it was difficult to open his Sharingan for observation, he had his own judgment in his heart.

"Shisui is right. Senior Shiyuan is really strong. The part he shows is already so amazing. So is there more strength hidden in it?"

Thinking in his mind, Itachi then turned his gaze to the other two people beside him.

He joined the ANBU as a special jounin, so his level at this time was also considered a jounin. However, it was obvious that the team leader this time was Shigen, so his status was the same as that of the other companions in front of him.

I just don’t know why the Third Hokage would arrange for a ninja from the Hyuga family to be on his team.

Although Itachi is different from ordinary Uchiha ninjas, sometimes trouble comes to his door. Hinata and Uchiha seem to be born with conflicting disputes, that is, whose family is the best in Konoha, and whose family is the best in Konoha? His eye skills are even better.

"Hello, Uchiha Itachi!"

Tokuma stretched out his hand in front of Uchiha Itachi. At this time, the three of them really got to know each other and said hello.

However, although Uchiha Itachi's reputation is not as loud as Uchiha Shisui's, there is a vague feeling of taking off in the past two years.

The genius of Uchiha, the man who will inherit the Uchiha family, these are some of Itachi's temporary titles.

"Hello everyone! Please give me your advice on the next task."

Itachi first held Tokuma's hand, and then bent down slightly.

He was the youngest among the group, and his attitude was quite respectful.

"Anyway, we are all Konoha ninjas. Shouldn't we support each other during missions?"

When Tokuma first discovered that the last teammate was an Uchiha ninja, he was a little worried about his arrogant attitude, but later found out that the rumored Uchiha Itachi was indeed very friendly.

No, it is not considered friendly. Although it is still a relatively calm and cold attitude, it is very different from the Uchiha ninjas I met before. In comparison, it does seem much friendly.

The three of them chatted for a while, and then Uchiha Itachi was the first to leave.

Watching Itachi leave, Tokuma rubbed his head and looked a little stupid: "Uchiha Itachi is indeed very different from other Uchiha ninjas."

"He is strong!"

Muta suddenly interrupted. He had only said one sentence to introduce himself during the previous chat, so the last sentence he said now surprised Tokuma.

"I know he is very strong. After all, he is known as a genius ninja who surpasses Uchiha Shisui. It is said that he has been on the battlefield since he was four years old. He is definitely not that simple ninja."

"Although he is weaker than the previous Tokimoto Jounin, my bug is even more uneasy when he looks at me than when I felt the Tokigenjounin before. Obviously I didn't open the Sharingan, but I You can feel some different emotions from those eyes.”

"Is that so?"

Tokuma still believed in the judgment of his old classmate. He looked in the direction where Itachi disappeared, and his evaluation of Uchiha Itachi rose again.

Compared with Uchiha, Hinata does seem to be a little behind, and he has to admit this fact!

"Let's go back too. We have to leave early tomorrow morning."

After another few minutes of silence, Tokuma said to Muta beside him.

He looked over as he spoke, and then he found that the other party was gone.

"Huh? When did you leave? Did I not notice?"

He looked at the position where Muta stood before and fell into deep thought for a long time.

However, he was relieved after a few seconds. The sense of presence was not something that could be forcibly distorted, so he could only accept that Muta had just greeted him when he left but he ignored this explanation.

In the laboratory, as the shadow clone disappeared, Shiyuan's body also received the message.

The main body was supposed to pass by before, but due to an accident in the middle, Shi Yuan directly separated himself and asked the other party to meet his teammates for the first time, while he himself came to the laboratory.

The aftereffects of using Burning Escape had not been completely recovered in the past few days. He originally thought that he would have to at least return from this mission before he could be sure to repair it. Unexpectedly, good news came from the laboratory, so he rushed over.

Although the injuries to his hands did not cause Shi Yuan too much trouble, as a face control person, Shi Yuan felt that he still couldn't accept his hands that looked like bones, so he ran over immediately.
