Naruto started to become stronger by becoming a disciple of Tsunade

Swish!

Several people dispersed.

This town is not very big, but because it is located at the junction of the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Fire, it seems very prosperous. There are all kinds of shops on both sides of the street, and there are constant pedestrians on the road.

Okamoto Dousuke followed a little behind Hinata Tateie.

Hinata Ritsu has changed her appearance from when she first left the village. She now has blue contact lenses to cover her white eyes. She is wearing a simple linen long-sleeved shirt, and her long black hair is tied into two ponytails that sway as she jumps. She is wearing a black skirt that reaches her ankles. Her white feet are tightly hooked on the clogs.

Kick~kick.

"Sister, can you please be more low-key? Everyone on the street is looking at you when you walk." Okamoto Dousuke said helplessly as he looked at Hinata Ritsu who was walking in small steps behind him.

Are we here to gather intelligence?

Hinata Ritsu walked quickly to Okamoto Dousuke's side, covered her mouth with the fan in her hand, and whispered, "Don't worry, this is how you come here to have fun. Sister knows what to do."

After saying that, Hinata Ritsu really squatted down and bargained with a dog vendor. He also pulled Okamoto Dousuke to bargain with the other party.

When leaving, Okamoto Dousuke was holding a bunch of the bags he had just bought, while Hinata Tachibana was holding a snow-white puppy in one hand, and in the other hand she was holding a bag of dog food that was given as a gift when buying a dog, and was feeding the dog.

The two men observed as they walked, and found that the presence of two wealthy young men who came to play in the bustling town center was not very conspicuous.

"Dousuke, in front!" As they walked, Hinata Tachie pulled Okamoto Dousuke.

Okamoto Dousuke was stunned for a moment, then immediately returned to normal, glancing in the direction that Hinata Tachibana had mentioned.

It was a ramen restaurant. Four Sunagakure were sitting on the stools inside eating. A middle-aged man was with three young children. They didn't look like an elite unit.

While Okamoto Dousuke was thinking about what they were here for, he lowered his head to check the items in the stalls at the door and pretended to be buying something.

Suddenly, his arms felt heavy, and Okamoto Dousuke looked up and saw that Hinata Ritsu had put the white dog in his arms. Then he ran to the four Sunagakure.

"Um, are you ninjas?" Hinata Tachie tilted her head slightly and looked at the four Sand Villagers with a curious and shy look.

The older Sand Villager immediately became alert and asked, "Who are you?" His hand unconsciously dropped and reached into the ninja tool bag on his leg.

"Me? My family is from the Land of Flowers, and we came here to do flower tea business. Are you ninjas?" Hinata Tachie looked at them like a curious baby.

"We only have family samurai. On the way here, our caravan was robbed by two wandering ninjas. More than a dozen samurai and servants who came with us were killed. Now there are only my brother, me, and my father. So I want to hire you, is that okay?" Hinata Tachie said pitifully.

"That's right. We are ninjas from the Wind Country, one of the five great nations, the Sand Village. I can easily deal with the wandering ninjas you mentioned, let alone my teacher." said one of the teenagers.

"Although we are still Genin, we can already carry out C-rank missions! And our teacher is a Chunin!" another kid continued boasting.

"Stop talking," the Sand Village Chunin stopped his student. "It's like this, young lady. If you want to hire our Sand Village ninjas, you can go to the task posting office to post the task. We will not accept your employment personally."

"Oh, okay then!" Hinata Ritsu looked disappointed.

"Sister, sister, are they willing to accept our employment?" Okamoto Dousuke at the door asked hopefully.

"They said they don't accept employment, let's go." Hinata Tachie said in a slightly low voice.

"Ah, then how are we going to get back? We might die on the way back. Mom will never see us again." The two left the ramen shop dejectedly.

"Teacher, how can we just stand by and watch them die? Our mission will be completed soon anyway," the arrogant kid said loudly.

"Yes, teacher, we can't do this." Another teenager also said.

"Please wait a moment, miss. If you can wait, you can come to this noodle shop and wait for us tomorrow at noon." said the Chunin Sunagakure.

After hearing this, Hinata Ritsu turned around with tears in her eyes and bowed to thank them: "Thank you, thank you very much!"

After leaving the ramen shop.

"Sister, do you know that I was scared to death when you went up to ask people directly?" Okamoto Dousuke complained.

"Don't worry, Dousuke. I have observed through the Byakugan before entering the town that many of the stalls in the town are from the Flower Kingdom. There are bloodstains and new scars on the Flower Kingdom truck parked in the hotel," Hinata Tachie explained.

"So there is no problem for us to disguise ourselves as merchants from the Kingdom of Flowers. Don't worry, Dousuke. Besides, those little Genin brats are too naive." Hinata Ritsu reached out and took the little white dog from Dousuke Okamoto's arms.

Looking at Hinata Ritsu who was walking away with the tap, tap, tap of her wooden clogs.

Okamoto Dousuke's previous sense of superiority as an adult was gone. Yes, this world has monsters who graduate at the age of 5, become Chunin at the age of 6, and a large number of children who kill people in their teens. The mind is basically mature at the age of or . If you ignore the understanding of the original work, you have no advantage.

Their experience was accumulated through killing. Before I crossed over, I was a weakling who couldn't even carry anything, couldn't lift anything, let alone kill anyone, and had never even killed a chicken.

"What are you doing, Zusuke!" Looking at Okamoto Zusuke who was not keeping up with him, Hinata Tachi called out.

"Yes, I'm coming, sister." Okamoto Dousuke agreed and chased after her.

"Tell us about your investigation." Nakajima Souki asked the people who had returned.

"The place in the southeast where I went, there were two wandering ninjas, who should be Genin in strength. They accepted a hired mission in the underground gold exchange room to protect a merchant from being robbed by mountain bandits." Aburame Takuto finished his words in just a few words.

"The ninja that Okamoto Dousuke and I found was from the Sand Village. I didn't dare to roll my eyes because we were too close. According to the Genin he brought with him, he was a Chunin who also came here to accept a mission from the village, and it will be completed tomorrow." Hinata Tateie said.

"And Sister Tachie even disguised herself as a merchant who was robbed in the Flower Kingdom to test them, and that Sand Village Chunin also agreed to accept the mission to return to the Flower Kingdom after their mission is completed," added Dousuke Okamoto.

"The two places I went to were also full of wandering ninjas. Merchants from those small countries usually hire wandering ninjas because the prices of ninjas from the five major countries are high. You did a great job, Hinata Tachibana, Okamoto Dousuke, I will record it in the task manual." Nakajima Sodai said.

"Tomorrow, you two, Dousuke and Ritsu, will go and find them to post the employment mission. I will pretend to be your father, and Takuto will be the servant. Go and rest now. We will act early tomorrow morning."

After saying that, he let them go.
