Travel through Konoha and open treasure chests

"Shikaku-sensei"

The light at the entrance of the cave shook for a moment, and Bai Mingyu and Aburame Tune unanimously chose to stop. Just as they put away their weapons, Nara Shikaku rushed in with Uchiha Izumi, both of them holding kunai in their hands. When they saw the scene in the cave clearly, they were all stunned.

"you two"

"I'm sorry, Teacher Shikaku, Brother Torigen and I discovered the monster's lair. We originally wanted to catch him, but unfortunately he ran away without paying attention."

Bai Mingyu's half-animal characteristics disappeared quietly, and Tian Zhisuo and Sode Shirayuki also took back their backpacks.

On the other side, Aburame Togen also sheathed her sword, nodded and said, "That's it."

""

Nara Shikaku looked at the two of them suspiciously.

Looking past the two of them, he wordlessly scanned the gravel and rubble on the ground, as well as the cave where Zhonggo had stayed before. After a while, he took a breath and said, "Let's leave here first and then elaborate."

Back in the village, Nara Shikaku closed the door and scolded Bai Mingyu and Aburame Togen.

In any case, both of them acted privately without reporting the captain, and they also allowed the monster to escape. Whether it was as the leader of the team or the mentor of Bai Mingyu and Izumi, Nara Shikaku was hard-pressed. Take the blame.

Quan huddled in the corner and didn't dare to speak.

Bai Mingyu and Aburame Togen listened honestly.

After training for a while, Nara Shikaku stopped: "After you go back, each of you two will write a 5,000-word self-reflection letter and give it to me. If there is a next time, I will consider asking the Hokage-sama to suspend it temporarily. Your chance to take on the mission.”

"Yes."

Bai Mingyu agreed simply.

As for self-reflection, I have written it countless times when I was in school in my previous life. It is easy to write another one.

And since Nara Shikaku said this, it meant that he didn't really want to punish the two of them. The so-called not allowing them to accept the mission was more of a warning to them.

Seeing that the atmosphere was relaxing, Quan quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it over, smiling and saying: "Don't be angry, Mr. Lujiu, Bai Yu and the others also want to complete the task as soon as possible. Although the monster escaped, we can still follow Its footprints follow."

Nara Shikaku sighed: "This is the only way."

In the next few days, the team went up the mountain every day to look for traces of the monster.

In order to avoid acting alone again, Nara Shikaku divided the team into two groups. He took Aburame to get the root, while Izumi stared at Bai Mingyu. No matter which side found a clue, they must inform the other party in time.

During this period, Quan curiously asked about the situation that day.

Bai Mingyu described it briefly, saying that he and Aburame Togen rushed to the cave one after another, but during the battle with the monster, they accidentally let the other party escape. As for what happened between him and Aburame Togen , not mentioned at all.

Although Quan was dubious, he could only accept this explanation.

The search lasted five or six days.

In the morning, when Bai Mingyu and others rushed to the village chief's house after breakfast, Nara Shikaku finally spoke: "There is no need to continue searching. The monster should no longer be in this area. It has a radius of twenty kilometers. No trace of its activities has been found within the area. It has traveled so far and will probably not come back again."

The task requirement is to deal with the monsters that plague the villagers.

Killing is best, but expulsion also counts.

So the mission has been completed here, but it is not as complete as expected.

After informing the Kaina village chief about the investigation during this period, Nara Shikaku ordered Bai Mingyu and others to pack their things and leave the village.

After traveling for several days, we returned to Konoha Village.

Nara Shikaku returned to the mission hall to hand over the mission.

The team was disbanded on the spot.

Aburame Togen left in a hurry without even saying hello. Bai Mingyu and Izumi stayed where they were: "Bai Yu-kun, after this mission is completed, what are your plans?"

"First have a good meal, relax, and then take a shower."

Bai Mingyu held the back of his head with both hands and looked up at the sky.

Naturally, when you go out to do a mission, you can't have any big fish or meat. You have to eat and sleep in the open air along the way. Of course it's okay to make do with it under special circumstances, but it's still very hard.

"That's it. Let's go have a barbecue tonight and invite Hua and Xiang Phosphorus. Then if we have time tomorrow night, we can all go to the party together. I heard it will be spectacular."

Bai Mingyu turned his head and glanced at Quan, who looked at him steadily.

"Hmm, that's fine. I'll go home and call Xiang Lu first."

At noon that day, Bai Mingyu took Xianglan and Naruto to meet Izumi and Inuzuka Hana at the entrance of the barbecue restaurant.

Since the last time Xiang Lian was forcibly recognized as his sister, the relationship between Naruto and Xiang Lian has also undergone some subtle changes.

One is practicing ninjutsu with his master Senju Mooka every day, which is boring. The other is the incarnation of a demon fox and is not popular in the village. They happen to form a pair and play together from time to time.

Whenever Naruto was being made difficult by other children in the village, Xiang Ling would stand up.

Relying on the strong physique of the Uzumaki clan, and having the master Mooka Senju behind her, she could punch anyone who got upset. Basically, few children her age could beat her.

I heard that she has become quite famous in the children's circle, and she is nicknamed Blood Red Chaotianjiao.

When he heard this nickname from Naruto, Bai Mingyu puffed out and almost spit out the soup he just drank.

"Who came up with the name Blood Red Chaotian Pepper?"

"It's not that guy"

When I mentioned this name, I was filled with anger: "He was the first to say that my red hair is like the color of chili peppers, and my personality is also very aggressive. At first, it was just him who called me that, but then everyone called me that." , I’m really pissed off. I have to teach him a lesson next time I see him.”

"tooth"

Bai Mingyu subconsciously glanced at Inuzuka Hana, who smiled sheepishly: "It's my younger brother, Inuzuka Kiba, who has a naughty personality and caused you trouble."

It's really him.

Among the twelve Konoha heroes in Naruto's batch, Inuzuka Kiba can be regarded as the one who has the most similar personality to Naruto. He is also one of the few of his peers, except for Shikamaru and Choji, who does not object to playing with Naruto. It seems that when the children were in ninja school, they were often caught and scolded by Iruka for skipping classes together.

I didn't expect that I would already know Naruto now.

Although it sounds like the relationship is not very harmonious

"It's okay, Sister Hana. In fact, I quite like playing with Akamaru's Akamaru. I really want to raise a puppy like Akamaru." Koro looked at Inuzuka Hana expectantly.

"Well, next time the ninja dog I raise at home gives birth to puppies, I will give you one."

"Thank you, Sister Hua"

Xianglan shouted with a smile and glanced at Naruto with some pride.

Not to be outdone, Naruto also wanted to speak, but after opening his mouth, no sound came out.

If Kaoru asks, Inuzuka Hana can simply offer to send a dog to Kaoru, but if it is Naruto who makes the request, this may not necessarily be the case.

No, it should be said that they will definitely refuse. Except for Xiang Lu and Bai Yu, everyone else in the village

Naruto lowered his head silently, and at this moment:

"If possible, can you give me one? I can exchange it with you for other gifts."
