"Hey! Kirito, you've managed the dojo well.”Tian Tian praised Kirito's work without hesitation, patting his arm vigorously. Her carefree personality made her straightforward and honest with everyone.
"Yes, it's alright. It's my job.”Kirito said calmly.
"Hey, Kirito ~" Tian Tian had already started calling Kirito by his name. She had even omitted the word "Jun", which meant that she had already treated Kirito as a true friend, just like her companions, Xiao Li and Ning Ci. "Do you want to follow our team on a mission?”
"Mission?" Kirito asked curiously," What mission? Also, strictly speaking, I'm not a ninja yet. I don't have the right to carry out ninja missions.”
"B-rank mission. The mission is to escort the princess of the Fire Country to the Daming Mansion. "This was personally ordered by Lord Naruto to be carried out by Teacher Kai," Tian Tian said proudly.
Kirito frowned and asked curiously," B-rank mission? I remember that you have to be at least a chuunin to have the authority to execute it, right? Lord Naruto will let Genin and you guys participate."
Tian Tian raised a finger and waved it in front of Kirito. She said softly," In theory, that is indeed the case. The mission to escort important people is a B-rank mission, but the actual difficulty of this mission is probably only C-rank. As the escort location was within the Country of Fire, the chances of fighting ninjas from enemy countries were very low. " Moreover, the Fire Country already has a powerful group of guards. The mission they entrusted to us is just a diplomatic formality. They're also acting as guides to Muye.”
"..." Daijitori understood, but it was still the same question. He was not even a Genin, so he did not seem to have the right to go out and carry out ninja missions.
Tian Tian knew what Kirito was thinking, so she immediately answered,"Don't worry, you're not participating in this mission as a ninja, and you're not recognized by the village. You're just representing the weapon master of the best weapon shop in Muye. Consider it my personal invitation ~"
" Is that so…" The smart Kirito immediately understood Tian Tian's intentions and guessed the reason behind her actions." I have a rough idea, but I think I should take back the title of weapon master."”
"Being overly humble will only make people unhappy ~" Tian Tian looked at Kirito with a serious expression and smiled."With just a slight touch, you can see the hardness, toughness, texture, and other parameters of the weapon, including the materials and characteristics of the forging. Able to skillfully use more than a hundred weapons. To be able to do this, it was not too much to be called a master, right?”
Kirito shrugged. This was a special ability given to him by the arsenal system. Kirito was not willing to explain anything about the system, so he did not directly respond to Tian Tian's words.
Tian Tian didn't probe too deeply into this matter and continued," Kirito, I received news that in a noble's territory in the Fire Country, when they were building a manor, the ground collapsed and they found an ancient underground cave with extremely rare ores in it. I think you should understand, right?”
"Extremely rare ores? " Is that so? It's an important material for forging Divine Weapons. My mission is to find and identify those ores…" As soon as Kirito finished speaking, his gaze became firm. In his mind, the system mission notification appeared again.
[Mission Details: Collect the rarest ores]
[Quest Type: Hidden Plot]
[Mission Level: C]
[Mission Reward: Attribute Points]
"..." Kirito had no reason to reject the system's quest. He immediately responded to Tian Tian's invitation," Alright, I accept."”
At the wooden leaf gate, Kai laoshi, Ning Ci, Xiao Li, Tian Tian, and Kirito gathered.
"Oh, Kirito! Tian Tian's personal invitation was you. That's great. Let's follow the path of youth and do 500 palm presses first!”Xiao Li gave him a thumbs up." Also, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the last mission!”
"Uh, it's not that exaggerated. I was just lucky.”Kirito could not stand Xiao Li's excessive enthusiasm.
"Just a fluke can't beat back Jounin.”Ning Ci snorted coldly.
"..." Kirito shrugged and did not explain.
Tian Tian also waved her hand and said helplessly," This guy is always like this. He's very narrow-minded. It's hard to get anything out of him.”
" Yes, yes! Please forgive me for my bad personality!" Kirito said helplessly.
Kel, who was at the side, sized up Kirito with a slightly scrutinizing gaze. Kirito Hinata, was this the child from the Hinata family who didn't roll his eyes and didn't know ninjutsu or illusions? He was really like Li at that time. He was ridiculed as trash by others and was treated coldly, but he could still maintain this sunny and positive smile. He was in a much better state of mind than Li. Also, from his every movement and the lines of his muscles, it could be seen that this child had been persisting in high-intensity training every day. He was a very hardworking fellow.
Kel could not help but recall what the third generation leader had told him before he set off. He wanted to observe everything about Kirito carefully and test his strength if there was a chance.
Hmm, if you observe carefully, I've already done it. However, what should he do for the test? It was rare for Kel to receive a request from Naruto, so he immediately became excited and motivated. He decided to complete it beautifully. This was proof that he was still young and hot-blooded.
Inside the Naruto Building, the third generation leader was looking at Kel and his group through the crystal ball with great interest. His aged eyes locked on to Kirito with a meaningful look as he said calmly," Hinata, then, how far have you gone?”
Sitting on the high platform, everything in the village was in sight. Third Generation Me leaned back slightly on the chair and took a deep puff of his pipe. He had a feeling that everything was under his control.
However, what happened next made Mitsuri-me, who was comfortably leaning against the chair and smoking, suddenly stand up. In his hurry, he swallowed the smoke that he inhaled into his throat, causing him to cough repeatedly.
In the crystal ball, after thinking for a while, Kel decided to directly test Kirito's strength.
"Tong Renjun."
“?”
Upon hearing Kel's figure, Kirito subconsciously turned around. However, Kel, who was still in his field of vision a moment ago, had disappeared without any warning!
The sound of rushing wind could be heard. Kirito didn't even think about it. Almost reflexively, a golden light flashed under his feet.
"Sou!"
Kel, who had disappeared, suddenly appeared behind Kirito. However, when Kel appeared, Kirito's figure disappeared without any warning!
Kirito's figure appeared 100 feet away. He looked at Kel strangely and asked in confusion," Teacher Kel, what are you doing?”
"Ahahahaha, it's nothing. It's just that Lord Naruto asked me to secretly probe Kirito. "I'll just take a look ~" Kel laughed.
"Oh, as expected of Teacher Kai! It was actually Lord Naruto's secret mission!”Xiao Li was also hugging Kel in a relaxed manner. He did not feel that something was wrong with the atmosphere at all.
" Teacher Kai, what you said just now was a secret, right…" Tian Tian said speechlessly.
However, Ning Ci's eyes were wide open as he stared at Kirito. He was extremely shocked. This guy could actually dodge Teacher Kai's speed!
