Chapter 121 Departure to the Country of Tea

"Ah? Why is it another C-level escort mission?"

After receiving the latest mission, Tianma held his head and complained in pain. In more than half a year, they have already reached the strength to carry out B-level missions. Now he really doesn't like the C-level escort mission. , not only the reward is small, but also a waste of time.

"Escort missions are often the most difficult missions. Don't underestimate him just because the mission is C-level."

Hatake Satoru said with a serious expression.

"Having been doing missions for such a long time, you should know that it is the most normal thing to upgrade your level during the mission. Escort missions are often the easiest to upgrade and the most prone to accidents."

"Yes, Teacher Wu, I know I was wrong."

Hearing Hatake Satoru's reprimand, Tianma lowered his head and admitted his mistake very sincerely.

"Because we are not sure whether the mission person is hiding any secrets, nor are we sure whether we will encounter other enemies during the mission."

Hatake Satoru continued to speak.

"Yes, Teacher Satoru, I won't do it next time."

Hearing what Tianma said, Wu shook his head helplessly. This situation had happened countless times.

But Tianma's character is like this. It would be difficult for him to make changes without experiencing something unforgettable.

"Okay, let's go home and rest for a while. Let's meet directly at the entrance of the village later. The taskmaster has already been waiting for us there."

"yes."

Then the three people in front of them dispersed, leaving only Hatake Satoru standing there alone.

"You are really becoming more and more like a teacher now."

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded, and a white-haired figure slightly shorter than Hatake Satoru appeared next to him.

"After all, time can change a person. Kakashi, how about you try being a teacher? It feels good to see your disciples become stronger and stronger."

The person who came was none other than Hatake Satoru's younger brother, Hatake Kakashi.

"Forget it, a person with my personality is really not suitable for doing this kind of thing with children."

Without thinking, Kakashi simply rejected it. People like him have already adapted to the life of ANBU. If he is allowed to live on the bright side like an ordinary person, he may have to adapt for a long time. time.

"I said, time will always change a person, maybe you will inherit my mantle in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Kakashi rolled his eyes and realized that the word "inheriting the mantle" seemed not to be used accurately.

"It's better to come out of ANBU as soon as possible. Although ANBU is very training, but with your current strength, you no longer need to stay in ANBU."

Now that Kakashi has mastered the perfect Sage Mode, his strength has already reached the Kage level, and continuing to stay in the ANBU will not be of any use to his practice.

"But after all, some things have to be done, right?"

Kakashi said that the purpose of their Anbu's existence was not only to protect the safety of the Hokage, but more importantly, to deal with some things that the village could not handle on the surface.

"Kakashi, you have really grown a lot, in every sense of the word."

Satoru said with emotion, and at this time, the scene of Kakashi's childhood also appeared in his mind, a child who was both arrogant and strong.

Today, Kakashi's own sharpness has softened a lot, and he feels more mellow.

"After all, as you said, time will always change things."

Now Kakashi is the captain of the ANBU, and his position is quite high. Except for the Hokage, all actions of the ANBU are subject to Kakashi's command.

Also because Kaka was his disciple, Minato was very relieved to hand over such an important position to him.

And Kakashi also has the qualifications, status, and reason to deal with the dark parts of the village for Minato Namikaze.

"Then I won't force you, but I still hope you will leave ANBU as soon as possible and experience the life of a normal person."

After hearing this, Kakashi thought for a while.

"I will, but brother, you should go do your mission now, otherwise you will be late again later, and you will inevitably be spit on by your own students."

"Oh, isn't it normal for me to be late? If I had arrived early, it would have been an accident."

But having said that, Satoru's figure disappeared directly in front of Kakashi in the next second.

When arriving at the village gate, Hatake Satoru was indeed the last one to arrive.

"Teacher, you are late again. When could you arrive so early and wait for us?"

"You actually want me to wait for you? Your status is quite high?"

Wu directly grabbed Tianma's ear and said in his ear.

"No, no, no, no, Teacher Wu, I was wrong. We are waiting for you, we are waiting for you."

Feeling the severe pain coming from his ears, Gastrodia quickly gave in.

A man can bend and stretch, but don't be tough when it's time to give in, as is the case now.

"Ninja, can we set off now?"

At this time, a middle-aged man with brown hair appeared next to Wu and said with a smile.

"Sorry, let's leave now."

"good."

After hearing Hatake Satoru's promise, the brown-haired middle-aged man ordered the convoy to set off. There were three carriages, and the things Hatake Satoru and the others were escorting were also the goods loaded on the carriages.

It's just some cloth, decorations and the like. It's not something too valuable, otherwise it wouldn't be a C-level mission. After all, few people would pay attention to this kind of thing.

Their destination this time is the Country of Tea. Although the Country of Tea borders the Country of Fire, Konoha Village is quite far away from the Country of Tea.

Because Konoha Village only occupies a part of the land area of the Country of Fire, and the location of Konoha Village in the Country of Fire can be said to be very far from the border with the Country of Tea.

Moreover, they still traveled by carriage, so the distance alone would probably take Hatake Satoru twenty days.

And spending nearly a month to do a C-level mission was indeed a bit of a loss.

"Teacher Satoru, do you think there will be some more powerful ninjas attacking us?"

Tianma looked around and said excitedly.

"How is that possible? Stop being stupid, Gastrodia."

Before Satoru could answer, Shinko spoke first.

"If it were you, would you focus on these cloths, decorations and the like?"

"Won't."

"So I don't think other people will focus on this kind of thing."

"Alas, it looks like another ordinary C-level mission, not challenging at all."

Gastrodia raised his head, looked at the sky, and sighed.

"But nothing is absolute. We still have to be careful and vigilant about our surroundings."
