Chapter 31 B-level escort mission

The Chuunin Examination was successfully concluded. This time, a total of five genin were promoted to chunin. Among them, Satoru and Kakashi became the youngest chunin in the history of Konoha Village. For a while, the reputation of the two brothers Hatake was greatly increased. It's just that there is a little more stain on Kakashi's reputation.

In order to celebrate Hatake Satoru and Hatake Kakashi passing the chunin exam, their former classmates specially held a banquet for the two of them. They were obviously a group of children, but they all started drinking. Seeing Satoru and Kakashi put on the chuunin vest. They were all very envious and could only drink to relieve their sorrow.

There was one thing among them that Satoru found very interesting.

That is, after Asuma was drunk, he actually confessed to Hong. Although Asma usually looked very arrogant when he was in school, he would immediately wilt when he faced Hong.

Seeing Asuma's confession, Obito also wanted to muster up the courage to confess to Lin, but after drinking a glass of wine to strengthen his courage, he fell asleep directly on the table, which immediately made everyone dumbfounded.

The most interesting thing is that after Kai drank a glass of wine, he started to play drunken fist, and then he was about to duel with Kakashi. No one could stop him. If Satoru hadn't knocked Kai unconscious, then this would have been The banquet was completely ruined.

Satoru also cherishes the time of this banquet. After all, the next time they get together like this, I don’t know when it will be.

Although only five genin passed the Chuunin exam this time, it does not mean that there are no other ways to become a Chunin, such as making contributions to the village, or if you have outstanding abilities in a certain area, you can also become a Chunin. .

For example, Hyuga Ikki, although he was defeated by Satoru in the Chunin Exam, his strength had already reached the Chunin level, so after the game, he became an exception and became a Chunin.

There is also the Inuzuka Inu, although Kakashi won the battle through opportunism, but it is undeniable that Inuzuka Inu's strength has exceeded the level of genin, so it is reasonable for him to become a chuunin.

The last one to make an exception and become a chuunin was Miwa. Even Satoru didn't expect this. Later, he learned that Miwa was a very rare medical ninja, so he made an exception and became a chuunin, in order to make Miwa more powerful. His medical ninjutsu can make great contributions to Konoha in the future.

So now in Teacher Nakajima's team, only Mahiro is the only one who has not yet become a chuunin.

When he learned that Miwa had been promoted to chuunin, he had completely lost the ability to control his expressions. His emotions could be described as out of control, and he kept lamenting the unfairness of his fate.

In a head-on battle, Miwa is definitely not Mahiro's opponent, but because Miwa masters medical ninjutsu, she temporarily surpasses Mahiro on the road of ninja.

Satoru didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only pat his shoulder helplessly.

After that, daily life became a constant exercise and tasks.

"This time, we are performing a B-level escort mission."

After gathering in the mission building again, Mr. Nakajima reported the content of this time to Satoru and the others.

"Who are you escorting this time? A princess? An actor? Or a pet?"

Although Mahiro asked this, there was no curiosity in his tone, but only helplessness.

When he first performed the escort mission, Mahiro was still very excited, thinking that he could escort some key figures and then fight the enemy.

However, after escorting several people, I found that none of them were of high status, either the son of a certain daimyo, or the pet that a certain daimyo wanted. Sometimes they couldn't help but sigh, being rich means being willful. Ah, even pets need to be escorted.

"No, this time we are escorting supplies. The supplies transported to the border are very important. There is no room for mistakes."

Teacher Nakajima said with a serious face.

"It's actually supplies?"

Mahiro's eyes flashed with golden light. This kind of task of transporting supplies was the top one among B-level tasks, and there was even the possibility of being promoted to A-level tasks at any time.

In the past, such an important task of transporting supplies was not their turn at all. Unexpectedly, this time it fell on them.

"Well, we now have two chunin in the team, and they can carry out some difficult tasks."

Upon hearing this, Mahiro, who was still excited, immediately lost his happy tone. He felt that Teacher Nakajima seemed to be hinting at something. Of the two chuunin, he was the only one who was not a chuunin.

"Go to the warehouse to collect supplies first, and then gather immediately. No time is allowed to be wasted on this mission."

"yes."

After about fifteen minutes, their team gathered at the village gate again, but this time everyone was carrying a backpack. Judging from the appearance of the backpack, it was full of things. .

Naturally, their ninjas will not use conspicuous things like carriages to transport supplies. They will seal things into scrolls, and then when the ninjas on the border need it, they can directly use the scrolls to channel it, which is convenient and fast. .

"Let's go as fast as we can, and try not to rest unless necessary."

"yes."

Even at the speed of their ninjas, it would take two days and two nights to get from Konoha Village to the border of Fire Country. This was still for very fast ninjas.

Since it is an escort mission, you will inevitably encounter battles on the road, not to mention the mission of escorting supplies. You will definitely encounter obstacles from the enemy's ninjas. If you are lucky, you may encounter the enemy's genin or chuunin, but if you are not lucky, If so, it is possible to encounter jounin from the enemy country.

Satoru and the four of them rushed quickly for a day and a night without resting. In the end, Miwa's physical strength could no longer hold on, so she rested on the spot for a while under the order of Teacher Nakajima.

However, even if it is a rest, it is only a physical rest, and the spirit is always in a highly concentrated state, guarding against enemies that may appear at any time.

However, before they could rest for a quarter of an hour, Satoru suddenly stood up.

"What's wrong, Satoru?"

Teacher Nakajima immediately asked cautiously. He knew that Satoru's eyes could see farther than him.

Mahiro and Miwa immediately went on alert.

"There are enemies."

Satoru said with a serious expression, staring closely at the jungle next to him.

Upon hearing these three words, Nakajima-sensei and the others all took out their kunai, ready to fight at any time.

"Art fire escape ho fireball."

Satoru's hands immediately formed a seal. Since the other party didn't intend to come out, Satoru would force them to come out.

Sure enough, under Satoru's powerful fire ball, five black figures jumped out of the grass. Judging from the forehead protectors they wore on their foreheads, they were Iwa ninjas.
