" It's like this, Ito," said Naruto III." There's a task for your class to complete."”
"A mission personally issued by Lord Naruto should at least be a B rank mission.”
Ito Masahiko couldn't help but think, so his expression became more serious."Please instruct me, Third Lord."
The third generation Naruto took a puff of his cigarette and said,"" Recently, there have been many robberies against merchant groups in the Country of Fire, causing the merchant groups in the Country of Fire to be very nervous. This time, a merchant group hired our village and wanted the village to send ninjas to protect them." Although I don't know who the enemy is, I'm guessing that it's a ninja. He's brazenly committing murder in the Fire Country, and he doesn't put Mu Ye in his eyes at all. Therefore, your mission this time is not only to protect the merchant group, but if you encounter an enemy, you must eliminate this threat.”
Ito Masahiko frowned and asked,""Lord Third Generation, is there no information about the enemy?”
Naruto said," No, the enemy is very cunning. Everyone who saw him was killed. This person should be purely for money. The level of this mission is B. If something unpredictable happens, you can apply to increase the level of the mission when you come back. Is there a problem?"”
"Yes, Lord Third Generation," Ito Masahiko immediately replied.”
The third generation Naruto nodded and then instructed Ito Masahiko,""Yiteng, this is the first time that the three of them have left the village. You have to take good care of them.”
"Don't worry, Third Lord. I won't let anything happen to them.”Ito Masahiko knew that Naruto III was very optimistic about Mizuno and the others, so he immediately promised.
The third generation Naruto was very satisfied." Someone will arrange for you to come into contact with the mission target later. Go."”
After leaving the Naruto Building, Ito Masahiko immediately instructed Mizuno and the other two,""Shuiyun, Kai, Hong, we will be leaving the village for many days this time. You guys go back first and bring everything you need to prepare.”
When Shui Yun and the other two heard this, they all headed home.
Keiko looked at Mizuki with reluctance and worriedly said,"Shuiyun, you have to be careful outside. Wear more clothes. Don't catch a cold and don't eat anything, understand?”
"I know, Mom. I'm going out to do a mission this time, not to play. I'll definitely be careful.”Shui Yun could only smile bitterly at her mother's success.
Even though Mizuki said so, Keiko was still worried. She warned again," Remember to listen to Mr. Ito. Ask him for advice on everything. Don't make decisions alone, and don't try to be brave. Also…"
"Alright, Mom, I'm late. I'll leave first.”
Seeing that his mother still had the intention to continue speaking, Shui Yun quickly carried his backpack and fled. If his mother continued to speak like this, he probably wouldn't be able to leave until nightfall.
"This child."
Keiko watched helplessly as Mizuki left, her eyes gradually becoming moist. This was the first time Mizuki had to leave her for such a long time. She was reluctant and worried, but she knew that this was what Mizuki should do. As a mother, she couldn't stop him.
At the gate of Kinabe Village, Mizuki and the other two had already arrived. Soon, Ito Masahiko came over with a middle-aged man.
Ito Masahiko pointed at the middle-aged man and said to Mizuno and the others,"" This is the employer of our mission. Our mission is to ensure the safety of their caravan until they reach the capital of the Fire Country.”
Mizuki and the other two nodded and did not say anything. They could just leave this matter to Ito Masahiko. The three of them only had to listen to Ito Masahiko and did not have to worry about other things. Similarly, Ito Masahiko only introduced them. As for the employer, he didn't take Mizuki and the other two seriously. He felt that Mizuki and the other two were only here to train. This time, the real person to rely on was Ito Masahiko.
When Shui Yun saw the scale of the caravan, he was shocked. There were more than 20 carriages of goods, all of which were luxury goods. Even if Shui Yun did not know the true price of this batch of goods, he could imagine that it was definitely a shocking amount of wealth. No wonder this caravan was willing to spend a large sum of money to hire Muye's elite Jounin. Compared to these goods, the remuneration was simply not worth mentioning.
It would take about ten days to reach the capital of the Fire Country from the starting point with the huge amount of goods. It was peaceful for seven consecutive days. There was no sign of bandits, let alone the ninja force that robbed the caravan that Third Naruto mentioned.
Shui Yun was not surprised to see no ordinary bandits. This was because other than the few ninjas, there were dozens of strong guards in this caravan. Including the people who transported the goods, there were more than 200 people in total. It was estimated that no bandits had the ability to swallow this caravan.
However, on the afternoon of the eighth day, something unexpected happened.
On this day, Shui Yun, Ma Te Kai, and Xi Ri Hong were sitting leisurely in the carriage to recuperate. The leader of the caravan paid great attention to Shui Yun and the other three. Not only did they enjoy the best resources, but even the food and drinks were carefully prepared. In addition, there were no accidents in the past few days, so Shui Yun and the other three slowly adapted to this comfortable life.
Just as the three of them were eating and preparing to rest, countless shurikens suddenly shot at them from all directions, directly shooting into their carriage. If Shui Yun had not reacted quickly and took out his Kuna to block and dodge in time, they might have been injured.
In that instant, a series of miserable screams sounded in the surroundings. Shui Yun decisively shouted,"Kai, Hong, get out."
In fact, hiding in the carriage might be the safest choice at this time, but Shuiyun and the others could not do so because they were hired ninjas. If they ignored their employer's life and ran away on their own, it would destroy the reputation of the village. Such a thing must not be done.
Upon hearing Shui Yun's shout, Metko and Sunset Red rushed out of the carriage with Shui Yun. At the same time, they took out their weapons and helped the caravan block the shurikens that were shooting at them from all directions.
When Mizuno rushed out of the carriage, he immediately saw Ito Masahiko. At this moment, Ito Masahiko was standing around the leader of the caravan. He was waving a short sword in his hand, easily blocking all the Kunai around him.
Ito Masahiko also saw the three of them in a sorry state. He shouted at Mizuki,""Shuiyun, protect the goods.”
"Yes." Shui Yun replied.
