"Haha! Hah! Continue drinking!"
"Daren is really amazing!"
"Lord is mighty!"
"Sir will definitely be able to defeat the opponent!"
"Haha, he fell! Daren won!"
"Come on, let's continue! Why are you lying down?"
Just as he reached the entrance of the izakaya, Genzang heard this voice and couldn't help but frown.
Stepping forward, Xuan Zang saw the chaotic side. There were a few people standing sparsely in the hall, and even more were lying on the ground or paralyzed in their seats. The room was filled with the smell of alcohol. Standing there was a burly man who was holding a jar of wine and walking in the hall. He looked like he was about to collapse.
After finding a clean seat, Xuan Zang decided to sit down first because he saw the man holding the wine jar and practicing drunk boxing. He was the client of this mission.
"Burp!"
The brawny man walked up to Xuan Zang and burped at him. The pungent smell of alcohol rushed towards Xuan Zang.
Xuan Zang was expressionless as he looked straight at the burly man, his eyes calm.
"Pa!"
Xuan Zang threw the mission request letter on the table in front of him, letting the burly man see it. Xuan Zang then pressed it down with his hand so that the few people who were about to come over couldn't see the mission request letter.
"Burp?"
The burly man's eyes paused on the power of attorney before he left the table with the wine jar.
"Burp! That's all for today. I'm going to rest. I'll treat everyone to a drink next time!"
The burly man turned around and shouted loudly. Although his tone was still drunk, he did not seem to have lost consciousness.
"Burp! Alright, Milord should rest well!"
"Come again tomorrow!"
"Let's go! See you another day!"
A few people in neat dark clothes appeared around the lobby and helped those who were wobbling out of the izakaya. Some people who had lost consciousness were carried out by those people. As for where they were sent, Xuan Zang didn't care.
"Master Ninja, my master is going to rest. Can you change to another shop? This is a small token of appreciation from my lord.”
A man with a mustache walked over to Xuan Zang's table and placed a note on it. The amount was not small, enough for him to drink at any izakaya in Koba for the entire afternoon.
"Butler, there's no need. This is the ninja who accepted our mission.”
A deep voice came from behind the moustache guy. It was the drunk brawny man.
"Yes, sir!"
The mustached man looked at Xuan Zang in surprise, unable to conceal the surprise in the depths of his eyes.
"Hello!"
There was still the smell of alcohol in his mouth, but the burly man's eyes had already regained clarity and he was no longer drunk.
The izakaya was already under the control of the burly man's men, and no one was surprised by his performance.
"Hello!"
Standing up, Xuan Zang reached out and grabbed the right hand of the burly man.
His hands were rough, and there were calluses between his thumb and forefinger.
This was Xuan Zang's first thought after shaking hands with him. It seemed that the brawny man was not as simple as he looked. At least, he was not a weak noble.
"Caw!"
Pulling out a chair, the brawny man sat down in front of Xuan Zang. The moustached man stood not far behind Xuan Zang, keeping a certain distance from the brawny man.
"Uchiha Genzo! I will escort you for this mission!”
"Tigers descend in early spring! Your client!"
The brawny man stared at Xuan Zang. His eyes didn't show any contempt just because Xuan Zang looked young.
"Are you the only one on this mission?”
Although Xuan Zang looked very steady, his life was at stake, so he didn't dare to be careless.
"Yes!"
Xuan Zang nodded calmly.
"What? How can Naruto do this!"
Before Early Spring Tiger could react, the moustache man behind him started barking.
He stood by the table, his tone a little angry, as if blaming Naruto for not taking the mission seriously.
" Butler?!"
Early Spring Tiger's tone became more serious, and he was a little dissatisfied with the moustache.
"My apologies, my lord! I was too anxious."
The mustached man lowered his head and retreated to the back. He did not speak anymore, but his face still had an angry expression, but he suppressed it so that it would not explode.
"You should be from the Uchiha family in the village?”
There was no honorifics in his words, but Xuan Zang didn't feel uncomfortable listening to them.
"Yes."
"Such a young Jounin? It's really amazing!"
Early Spring Tiger sighed. In his opinion, Genzang was only in his teens. A Jounin at this age would be considered a genius in any Ninja Village.
"I am a Chuunin."
Xuan Zang answered calmly. He felt that there was no need to hide anything. The beginning of the mission required mutual trust.
Early Spring's Tiger frowned when he heard Genzang's words. He did not expect Genzang to be a Chuunin. After all, he had already mentioned in the mission that there was a high chance of encountering a Jounin midway.
Was Woodleaf Village so weak now? Xia Hu felt irritated for no reason.
Hearing Xuan Zang's words, the moustached man blushed again, but he seemed to have thought of something and remained motionless.
"You said your name is Uchiha Genzo, right?”
Thinking about how Genzang was also a Chuunin, Early Spring Tiger suddenly recalled a small piece of information he had obtained from a conversation with Koba's ninja not long ago.
"Yes."
Xuan Zang didn't say anything more and just stared into his eyes.
" The one from the Sand Ninja Battlefield?"
Early Spring Tiger recalled that piece of information. It was a bit unbelievable.
"I just came back from there."
Xuan Zang could tell that he had heard some rumors about him.
"I didn't expect that even these nobles knew about it?”
Xuan Zang was still a little surprised. After all, not even his clansmen knew about his performance on the battlefield, but now a noble living in the capital knew about it.
"Then I have no more questions. I hope Lord Ninja will take care of me!"
Early Spring Tiger stood up and bowed.
The man with the moustache tugged at his beard.
"No? A Chuunin had already started the mission? What's the matter with Daren?"
Although he was a little confused, his nature of obeying orders all year round made him not ask any questions. All he needed to do was to complete the instructions of his lord!
"Pass down the order. We'll set off in the afternoon!”
Turning around to speak to the moustache man, Zaochun Xiahu hesitantly looked back at Xuan Zang.
"I can do it anytime. You arrange it!”
Xuan Zang nodded, indicating for Zao Chun to follow his plan.
"That's it. Go and clean up!"
Early Spring Tiger waved his hand.
"Then I'll come over later. You guys get ready first!”
Xuan Zang saw that the handover had been officially completed and said to Zaochun Xiahu.
"Alright, I'll do it. That…"
"You can just call me Xuan Zang."
Seeing that Early Spring Tiger wasn't used to addressing ninjas as civilians, Xuan Zang reminded him.
"Then Xuan Zang, see you later?"
"Yes."
He got up and left the izakaya, leaving the group of people behind.
"My lord!"
After Xuan Zang left, the moustached man walked to Zichun Xiahu's side.
"There is no problem with this ninja's strength. Don't worry.”
Early Spring knew what the moustache man was thinking.
"Don't underestimate a Chuunin, especially a Kiba ninja!”
Zaochun Xihu continued to speak. He then sat there, lost in thought.
The man with the moustache looked at the tiger in early spring and chose to believe in his master. He walked to the side and instructed the others to do their work.
They needed to pack up before setting off. The matters in the capital could not be delayed any longer. They had already waited in Muye for so long. Although Zichun Xihu did not say it, he must be anxious in his heart.
……
"Tick!"
The water droplets fell to the ground, breaking the silence.
"We have confirmed the target's departure time.”
"Leave the rest to the others. You can leave!”
"Yes, sir!"
In the darkness, silence returned! This place was like ancient times, empty and empty.
"Keng!"
It seemed like a walking stick had hit the ground. Footsteps echoed in the air, and some faint shadows flashed across the space filled with pipes.
……
In the third-generation successor's office, Yuan Fei and Sun Slash looked at the sky outside the window, smoking a big cigarette alone, the smoke lingering in the air.
……
Arriving at the izakaya again, Genzang saw a group of people who had already tidied up.
There were nearly ten servants, a mustached butler, and finally the client, Early Spring Tiger.
"Xuan Zang! Shall we set off then?"
Early Spring Xiahu had already sat in his carriage and waved at Xuan Zang.
"Good!"
Xuan Zang nodded and jumped onto the roof of the carriage.
"Fortunately, the roof of this carriage is flat, not the pointed roof in my memory.”
Xuan Zang sat on it, and he couldn't help but think of the ancient costume movies in his memory.
A few servants fell behind, and the moustached man sat in front of the carriage, driving the horse.
After registering at Muye's entrance, Xuan Zang and the others left the village in a grand manner. According to this speed, Xuan Zang estimated that it would be half a month before they reached the capital.
Xuan Zang couldn't abandon his servants yet, so he could only sit in the carriage and practice Chakra micro-control in boredom.
It was noon when they left the village and headed east. The convoy traveled for most of the afternoon and did not stop until sunset.
"Sir, are we going to spend the night here?”
The man with the moustache bent his body and reached out to help Zaochun Xihu off the carriage, but he was slapped away by Zaochun Xihu.
"Tell them to start a fire and cook something to eat. Then set up the tent. I have some blankets in my carriage that can be taken out.”
Early Spring Tiger landed on the ground, caressing the horse pulling the carriage while giving orders to the moustache man.
"Yes, sir! I'll do it immediately!"
The man with the moustache seemed to be used to the tiger's behavior in early spring. He nodded and bowed without any objection.
After saying that, the moustache man turned around and looked for the servants in dark clothes behind him.
"Xuan Zang, do you want to come down and rest?”
The moustache man left, and Early Spring said as he raised his head.
"I'll go patrol the surroundings."
Xuan Zang stood up and patted the non-existent dust off his pants, then looked around.
They were already in a forest and were very far from Woodleaf Village. It had to be said that Xuan Zang's estimation was wrong. He had thought that the carriage would be slow due to the servants behind them. However, he had to admit that the people of Ninja Realm had very good physical fitness. The carriage did not slow down on purpose, and the servants were still able to keep up.
Xuan Zang's gaze lingered on those servants for a few seconds. He then stepped on the ground and jumped around. He needed to confirm the situation around him.
"Sou!"
Walking through the gaps between the trees, Xuan Zang confirmed the situation one by one around the place where the caravan had set up camp.
