Chapter 507 Heading to the Country of Waves

"Hey, why do this year's newcomers have to accept C-level tasks... No, do you want the task of escorting the bridge construction experts to the country of waves?" The task ninja reluctantly pulled out another task list.

"Yes! This is it!" Asma's eyes lit up and he pulled it over.

Compared with Kadoki's clearing mission, this escort mission is much less difficult.

Although they are all C-level, there will definitely be battles to eliminate the pirates, and you may even encounter sporadic wave ninjas. The difficulty of the mission may increase at any time, which is considered a top-level C-level mission.

The task of escorting ordinary people is much easier. They will encounter a few bandit road bullies at most, and it can also make Shikamaru and the others familiar with the C-level task process.

"It's always troublesome, but you can't become a qualified ninja!" Asuma smiled cheerfully at Shikamaru and took over the task smoothly.

"Alas..." Seeing this, Shikamaru could only sigh and accept his fate.

Seeing Asuma taking over the mission of the Land of Waves, Kakugi's expression changed and he accepted the mission of wiping out the pirates without hesitation.

The town where the pirates were entrusted to be cleared was not far from the Country of Waves, and it took about half a day's walk to get there. If Asuma were to have an emergency, he would be able to take care of it in time.

It's not that Kakugi looks down on Asuma, but with the current configuration of Team 10, it might be really difficult for them to meet Zabuza and Haku.

Asuma and Zabuza are evenly matched for the time being, but Ino Shikacho from Class 10 will probably be beaten out of Sho when he encounters Haku.

As for reminding Asuma, it's not feasible. Even the client, Tatsuna, didn't see it. Could it be that Kakugi knew beforehand that he was deliberately hiding the mission level?

We can only take one step at a time.

----

Wanting to complete the mission as soon as possible so that he could take care of Asuma's Kadomu, there was no delay along the way. The entire Kadomu team marched in a hurry, and in just three days, they arrived at the town where the mission was entrusted.

Coincidentally, when Kakugi and others arrived in the town, they happened to catch up with this group of pirates coming ashore to collect this month's "protection fee."

Kakugi looked at the dozen or so crooked pirates on the pier. He didn't detect the presence of ninjas in his perception, and then gave an order to let the three little ones play freely.

Against these ordinary people who are relatively strong at best, ninjas who can use chakra still have a great advantage. Even the seemingly weak phoenix can cut grass with a kunai.

In order to make the client feel that the money was well spent, Kakugi also hinted at Sasuke, and Sasuke also gave him face, swallowing three or four pirates in an instant with a powerful fireball technique.

These pirates were able to die under the powerful fireball that was said to be invincible, so it was considered a worthy death.

The three little ones are worthy of being born as ninjas. I think the one Kakuzu killed was a bandit, and he was a little nauseous at that time. However, these three little ones did not show any physical or psychological discomfort.

Soon, the battle was over.

According to the client, there should be remnants of pirates on the island in the distance. Without any hesitation, Kadomu took out the fake paintings of super beasts and flew the three disciples to the island.

Not long after, several people arrived at the pirate lair. There were still more than twenty pirates on the island, and there were no ninjas. Kakugi simply let the three disciples do it.

Kakugi still felt a little regretful, thinking that the pirate leader would be a Nami nin who could give the three disciples some strength, but unfortunately he was not so lucky.

The pirates were cleared and the mission was completed. Kadomu and others rested for a night amidst the client's gratitude. Early the next morning, Kadomu continued on his way with his disciples.

Naruto finally couldn't help complaining: "Teacher Kakugi, are all ninja tasks in such a hurry?"

Sasuke and Kaoru beside him immediately pricked up their ears.

In the past few days, they had been marching in a hurry. When they arrived in the town, they started fighting the pirates without resting. Although the fighting was not intense, it still exhausted the three little ninjas.

I thought I could have a good rest for a day, but I was dragged by Kadomu to set off early in the morning.

Kakugi chuckled: "Such intensity is nothing for a ninja in a state of war, but...it's peacetime now, so it's not so busy."

"Eh? Then why don't we have an extra day of rest!" Naruto shouted unhappily.

"That's because our next stop is going to the Country of Waves." Kazuoki took advantage of the situation to reveal his plan.

"You should have met Class 10 when we accepted the mission. Their mission is to go to the Kingdom of Waves. I would like to take this opportunity for you to have a good exchange with Class 10."

Kakugi glanced at Sasuke and Naruto and said, "Let's also see how our classmates have progressed during this period after graduation."

Sasuke and Naruto looked at each other, their eyes flashed, and their lips also raised smiles.

What the teacher said...is exactly what I want!

Even Xiang Lu's eyes felt eager to try.

At that moment, the three of them immediately forgot about their fatigue and complaints, and their pace was a little faster.

It didn't take half a day for everyone to arrive at a port. The Kingdom of Waves was across the sea from here.

It's just that everyone's luck is not very good. The sea is filled with mist, and even if the hornwood flies high in the sky, it can't tell the direction.

Fortunately, there were many fishing boats near the pier. Kadougi found a larger fishing boat. After discussing the price, he took the boat and sailed towards the Country of Waves.

"Teacher Kadomu, what kind of country is Wave Country?" Naruto asked curiously. For the three of them, this was the first time in their lives to "go abroad".

"Teacher has never been to the Country of Waves. I only know it is a small island country." Kazuoki answered, staring in the direction of the Country of Waves, his thoughts drifting into the distance.

During the Third War, although Kakugi participated in the battle with Kirigakure on the battlefield of Wave Country, he never set foot on the land of Wave Country and only fought against the invading Kirigakure along the coast of Fire Country.

During my travels in the ninja world, I never went to the Land of Waves.

The only connection between the Kingdom of Waves and Kakuzu is the plot of the mission to the Country of Waves in Kakuzu's memory.

By the way, Kakashi has been to the Country of Waves. When he escaped from Kirigakure with Lin, he passed through the Country of Waves.

By the way, Lin...

When Kakugi came to reinforce them, Lin had already died under Kakashi's Chidori, and Obito had also turned black...

"Teacher?" Naruto looked at Kadomu strangely. Why did he suddenly look ahead and stop talking?

"Well, fellow ninjas..." A sailor suddenly spoke with a rather cautious tone: "Excuse me, are you the ninjas hired by Mr. Cardo?"

"Eh? Cardo? Who is it?" Naruto shook his head in confusion.

"No, we are actually the companions of the ninjas hired by Tatsuna." Kazuoki interrupted his thoughts and turned around to respond.

"That's it..." The sailor nodded, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

It's just that the speed of the ship has obviously accelerated a lot.
