Even when Genin had just graduated from the Ninja Academy, he was not qualified to accept C-rank missions. This was because during the C-rank missions, there would usually be actual combat. After a normal Genin graduated, they would need to complete at least 10 D-rank missions, which were just some trivial miscellaneous items. Only after the members of the team had developed a certain level of tacit understanding would they be qualified to accept C-rank missions.
And the situation where Orochimaru had Qimu Feng accept a B-rank mission was unprecedented. Other than the fact that he only had Qimu Feng as his disciple, there was no need for any tacit understanding. Another reason was that Orochimaru was no longer interested in missions below B-rank.
Of course, Orochimaru was prepared to let Qimu Feng carry out a B-rank mission right from the start. He undoubtedly had his own plans.
Among them, it was unknown whether Orochimaru had the evil interest of watching Qimu Feng make a fool of himself. After all, Qimu Feng was a Genin who had just graduated from the Ninja School. His actual combat skills might be good in the Ninja School, but when he really met the enemy, he might also make a fool of himself.
It was just like the Naruto in the Naruto that Hatake Kaede had seen before. Even when facing a powerful Jounin like Hatake Kakashi, he did not show any signs of fear. However, when Uzumaki Naruto left the village to carry out his mission, he was so scared that he could not fight back, even when he was facing two mediocre Chuunins. Perhaps Orochimaru was doing this to test Qimu Feng's tolerance.
If Qimu Feng's performance was too bad, Orochimaru would definitely let go of his plans and treat it as a good show. If Qimu Feng's tolerance met Orochimaru's requirements, Orochimaru would take action.
In Naruto's office, Orochimaru had already brought Qimu Feng here, ready to accept the mission on the first day. Of course, when a typical ninja accepted a mission, it was not like in Naruto's plot where even the third generation Naruto was beside them. The third generation Naruto would personally explain the next D-class character. That was a treatment that only people like Naruto had.
As the disciple of Orochimaru, Qimu Feng also received the same treatment.
Naruto's office was divided into three floors. Only the third floor was where Naruto's office was located. The remaining two floors were where the other ninjas worked. If you want to accept a D-rank mission, you only need to accept the mission on the first floor of Naruto's office. C-rank and above can be on the second floor. Of course, there are various special missions on the third floor.
Orochimaru brought Qimu Feng to the third floor.
When he first arrived at Naruto's office, the third-generation successor had a surprised look in his eyes. It was obvious that he knew that Orochimaru had taken Qimu Feng as his disciple. As for the Qimu Feng in front of him, he was the Genin who had just graduated from the Ninja School, but his reputation had been spread among the Kogawa clan for a long time.(To save trouble, the author will call the main character Qimu Feng from now on…) Some people said that he was extremely talented because he had never lost in the entire Ninja Academy. Others said that he was a coward because he clearly had the strength of a Genin long ago, but he did not graduate early like Hatake Kakashi and join the battlefield as soon as possible.
"Teacher, I'm here. This is Qimu Feng. I believe you should know him!”Orochimaru said to the third-generation successor.
The third-generation old man had already begun to look for his successor, and Orochimaru was the most ideal choice in his mind. Therefore, even if the Orochimaru now was different from the familiar youth in his memory, he still liked Orochimaru very much. After listening to Orochimaru's words, the third-generation old man turned his gaze to Qimu Feng and could not help but praise,"En, impressive. Such a small child, yet you possess a Chakra capacity that is even greater than the average elite ninja. Qimu Feng, you are even more outstanding than Kakashi!”
Qimu Feng smiled and said,"Third generation lord, you flatter me! I still need to continue working hard!"
"Good boy, Mu Ye needs a young man like you!”As the third-generation successor spoke, he looked at Orochimaru and asked,""Orochimaru, why did you bring Kaede here?”
"Teacher, I don't think Wind God needs to take on those low-level missions with his strength, so I want him to come here and take on a B-level mission! The one I liked the other day!" Orochimaru said coldly.
" This..." The third-generation successor frowned slightly." Isn't this a little too much?"”
"Don't worry, teacher. I think highly of Wind God's strength. If it really doesn't work, I'll take action!”Orochimaru narrowed his eyes.
"Since you've said so, fine, I agree!”The third generation took out a document and asked Orochimaru to sign it. Orochimaru didn't waste any time and left after signing it. Qimu Feng naturally followed.
Just as the two were about to leave, the third-generation successor suddenly said,""Feng, don't force yourself. If you really can't do it, then let your teacher Orochimaru do it!”
"En, don't worry, I'm not Kakashi!”Qimu Feng smiled and walked out.
The third-generation successor was stunned. Was he different from Kakashi?
……
"Gale Bandits."
Qimu Feng muttered to himself with a grave expression as he looked at the mission list. Just like in all novels, these bandit groups were not named carefully at all. Basically, there would be a bandit group called the Gale Bandit Group in every novel. Just like the bandit gangs in novels, with such a name, this bandit gang would eventually be an existence that the protagonist would farm experience for.
Orochimaru seemed to have heard Qimu Feng's muttering. At this moment, he came to Qimu Feng's side and suddenly sneered,"Wind Monarch, that's right. Our mission is to destroy the Gale Bandits. You must be careful when you carry out the mission, because before you are crippled, I will not make a move!”
"Yes, I know! Teacher, don't worry. Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit!”
When Orochimaru said this, Qimu Feng smiled at him. Then, he recalled the information about the Gale Bandits in his mind.
It was obvious that the Gale Bandits weren't easy to deal with since Qimu Feng was paying so much attention to them. The Gale Bandits were a very famous bandit group in the Country of Fire. It was rumored that a small team of ninjas had died in their hands.
Not long after the Second Ninja War, even the Fire Country's bandit groups were rampant. The Gale Bandits were the cream of the crop among the bandit groups. Their members were no weaker than ordinary Genins, and the strength of their elite members was even more unfathomable. Rumor had it that their leader had the strength of an Elite Ninja. Therefore, the mission that was supposed to be a C-rank mission to exterminate the Gale Bandits became a B-rank mission. With Qimu Feng's strength, if he were to face them head-on, even if he could complete this mission, he would have to pay a huge price.
However, Qimu Feng was not someone who only knew how to use his hands. He also liked to use his brain. Qimu Feng wanted to say that it was too easy for him to deal with an ordinary enemy like this. Ninjas were not warriors.
This was one of the famous bandit areas in the Country of Fire. The Gale Bandits specialized in robbing pedestrians on this road. This was the main passage between the two regions of the Country of Fire, so there were often caravans passing by. These caravans were the main targets of the bandits.
The merchants didn't want to pass through this place either, but if they didn't go through this place, they would have to take a detour. That would increase the cost, and they wouldn't have much profit. Therefore, large merchant groups would hire powerful ninjas to protect them. In their calculations, it was more cost-effective to hire expensive ninjas for protection.
Of course, crows would die for food, while humans would die for wealth. Some people would risk their lives and not invite ninjas to go over themselves, thinking that they would not be so unlucky to encounter bandits. This kind of person was what the bandit gang wanted to meet the most. They could easily capture him and rob him of his belongings. If he encountered a thief, he would spare his life, but if he encountered a vicious one, he would lose both his life and his wealth! Of course, it was mostly the latter. The Thieves in Naruto weren't good people. They were even more pure evil than ninjas.
The stronghold of the Gale Bandits was located in the mountains. It was located on a relatively gentle mountainside. This was indeed a good place to build a stronghold. The place where the village was located was like a high-rise building that had risen from the ground. It was surrounded by cliffs, but it was a little bigger.
The only way to get here was through a very narrow passage in front of them. This passage was like a bridge that connected the village to another mountain. As long as they guarded this natural bridge, they could guard the entire village. It could be said that one man could hold off ten thousand people. Of course, this bridge was also very meaningful to ninjas. Not all ninjas could leap over the steep cliffs. Those ninjas who had poor control of their strength did not dare to jump over the steep cliffs.
However, by the same logic, if they defended the other end of the bridge, no one in the stronghold could escape. Therefore, the bandits built many defensive structures on the other end of the bridge! However, even if the other side was guarded, the bandits were not afraid. The food they stored was enough for them to last for three to five days. There was no need to worry about water. There was a small stream beside the village. This stream came from a pond above. It was a pond that would not dry up all year round. At the same time, this pond was their only water source.
However, at this moment, two people who did not cross the bridge appeared at the edge of the pool. They were definitely not here to play, because their attire was incompatible with the bandits, and the bandits would not want unrelated people to come here.
"Wind God, we're here now and we've found a water source. What are you going to do next?" Although Orochimaru had some guesses in his heart, he still asked.
"Hehe, Teacher Orochimaru, do you think it will be easy to deal with those bandits if we tamper with this water source?”
Qimu Feng laughed evilly.
