Chapter 16 The Beginning of the Killing
Author: Zhong Ersheng Kuang Mo
"Here, here is your mission information and your equipment."
Uchiha Qinghuo pushed a scroll, a set of standard armor, and a standard ninja sword to Utatsuki, and then gave extremely serious instructions.
"A group of bandits have appeared near the trade route controlled by our family in the eastern part of the Land of Fire. They keep attacking merchants passing by. You need to deal with them. By the way, there are two wandering ninjas at the chunin level who are stationed among them."
"You must be careful when you go on a mission for the first time. Be careful and don't capsize in the gutter again. Otherwise, it doesn't matter if you die, but the resources the family spends on you will be in vain."
"I know, I know, there's no need to say so much, just like an old lady."
Geyue picked up the mission scroll and her armored sword, muttered impatiently, turned around and walked out of the mission hall.
"People are as big as little devils."
Uchiha Qinghuo laughed and cursed, and then began to assign tasks to other ninjas. He was very relieved about Utatsuki's safety.
[Ding, start the mission: Killing (resident mission).]
[Rewards for killing genin: 50~300 points, chuunin rewards: 300~500 points, jounin rewards: 1000~3000 points, shadow level rewards: 5000~10000 points, super shadow (Zhenguo) rewards: 30000~50000 points
, Six Paths (demigod) rewards: 100,000~200,000 points.】
"Killing mission!"
Having just walked out of the mission hall, Ge Yue's eyes flashed as she looked at the mission panel that suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, as well as the rewards for each level, and a strong sense of excitement surged in her heart for no reason.
For him who is determined to embark on the road of [eternal destruction], killing lives and absorbing souls is the way for him to become stronger, not to mention that there are points rewards after killing.
The Uchiha family's territory is to the south of the Fire Country.
Of course, the current Fire Nation is not the five superpowers that will almost carve up the ninja world in later generations.
The real opportunity for the Fire Nation to rise was after the Senju and Uchiha teamed up to establish Konoha. With the help of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, they overran the ninja world, calmed down the troubled times, and engulfed the surrounding small countries.
Gradually developed into a superpower.
Although the current Fire Country is considered powerful on this continent, it is at best the same size as the Grass Country in later generations. There are countless countries with the same size as him.
The target of Utatsuki's first mission was Mount Biwa, where bandits were raging on the transportation thoroughfare in the eastern part of the Land of Fire. It was about three hundred kilometers away from the Uchiha's spiritual land. For ninjas,
Not too far.
With Ge Yue's strength, he set out from the morning and arrived near Pipa Mountain by sunset.
Jumping out of the forest, landing on an open grassland, looking ahead at the Pipa Mountain shrouded in the red afterglow of the setting sun.
The shadows of the distant mountains appear darker and deeper against the setting sun, like a monster with a huge mouth, eager to swallow the flying bait!
"With this ominous premonition, it seems that this simple mission of suppressing bandits may cause many unnecessary twists and turns."
Feeling the faint crisis coming from her spiritual sense, a sinister smile flashed across Geyue's face: "But this is fine, just two wandering ninjas at the chuunin level are not enough to test the results of my practice this year.
"
He took out three military ration pills from his ninja tool bag and swallowed them. After replenishing his physical strength a little, Geyue took one step forward and rushed towards the forest ahead like a black phantom.
Swish, swish, swish!
The next moment, just as Geyue had just entered the forest, and the vision in front of her was completely dark under the shadow of the mountain forest, large shurikens and kunai suddenly shot over like a fine rain curtain, covering the sky and the earth.
Geyue's eyes were blank, and a faint golden light flashed in her eyes that were different from ordinary people. She made a mistake in her steps, leaned her body sideways, first dodged a kunai, and then stretched her right hand towards the ninja sword behind her back.
Zheng!
Qingyue's sword screamed, and the ninja sword pulled out a bright light in the dark environment, and like a fine storm, it knocked away the shurikens that were shooting towards him one by one.
"Um?"
Suddenly, a thin ray of fire reflected into Ge Yue's eyes. He looked intently, but he saw six detonating talismans attached to the kunai that were about to detonate.
"You have such a small plan, but you dare to do anything in front of me."
A trace of ridicule flashed in Geyue's eyes, and at the critical moment, he pinched the six kunai with the detonating talisman in his hand, and then a wisp of magic mixed with a large amount of chakra attached to it, and shot forward at a faster speed with his backhand.
Dark jungle.
Rumble!
Almost at the moment when Kunai was thrown into the dense forest by Utatsuki, violent explosions roared one after another, and the blazing fire shot into the sky, like a huge bonfire, dyeing the dark jungle with a crimson brilliance.
Whoosh!
Under the illumination of the fire, six masked figures jumped out from the fire, surrounded Ge Yue in a semicircle, and looked at him coldly.
"It's top quality. Such a powerful detonating talisman is rare even in my Uchiha clan."
Looking at the figures surrounding him, Geyue raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said casually: "Ordinary wandering ninjas cannot afford detonating talismans of such purity, tell me your names!"
"Humph, you are quite knowledgeable."
The first masked ninja took two steps forward, staring at Uchiha's strange double eyes that were different from ordinary people. He put a kunai between his fingers, turned it quickly, and said in a cold voice: "The Uchiha boy with weird eyes
, if you are sensible and put down your weapons, I can make your death easier!"
"You know I'm an Uchiha. It seems like this is a trap specifically designed to lure Uchiha."
Utayuki narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a mocking tone: "I just don't know, you rats who dare not show your true colors are Senju, Hinata or other ninjas?"
Click, click, click!
As soon as the words fell, there was the sound of drawing swords all around. All the masked ninjas lowered their bodies slightly, stepped back, and assumed an offensive posture.
"It seems like you little brat doesn't know how to recognize faces."
The leader of the masked ninja held the rotating kunai and said calmly: "In this case, I have to chop you into several pieces!"
Swish, swish, swish!
As soon as the words fell, the surrounding masked ninjas all waved their ninja swords and rushed towards Utatsuki.
"hehe."
The corner of Geyue's mouth curled up slightly, and a cold light lit up in the quiet woods.
The vast mountain forest was covered by the pitch-black night, and in an environment so dim that it was impossible to see anything, a few streams of light kept flashing and disappearing in the jungle, and earthquake-like shaking and dull sounds were heard from time to time on the earth.
As if they sensed some kind of crisis, the densely populated creatures in the surrounding jungle took action one after another, following their instincts to stay away from the approaching danger.
Whoosh whoosh!!!
The rapid sound of breaking wind spread intermittently, and the wind pressure caused by the high-speed movement of objects caused the vegetation to stir up waves. In such a dark and dense jungle, several figures were running at high speed, as if the natural obstacles and darkness did not exist at all.
generally.
If you connect the afterimages that are almost integrated with the darkness, you can see a curve full of simplicity and power.
This smooth-flowing trajectory continuously and skillfully bypasses numerous obstacles in the dark mountain forest, and from time to time borrows and releases strength in the complex environment.
Such proficient and simple basic skills represent that this person has reached an extreme level of mastery of himself.
Even if such people who have reached a certain extreme do not have all the high-end skills and techniques, the threat they pose to the enemy on the battlefield is far beyond that of ninjas who only pursue higher-level and more gorgeous ninjutsu.
