I came to the ninja world with thunder and lightning

Chapter 280 Mission with Hidden Difficulty!
"Ah~ That Aida Maki really looks down on people with dog's eyes. It's just a C-level escort mission, and he still hates this and that."

"Damn guy, how dare you ignore me!"

On the street, the boy behind Uchiha Itachi put his hands behind his head and complained as he walked.Born in Konoha, he has no awe of such high-ranking officials in the Daming Mansion.

"Gianma, don't say that, the other party also attaches great importance to the task."

Beside the boy, a girl with gray double ponytails comforted her, while pouting at the young man at the front of the line, hinting.

Beside the two children, the old man who was behind the pot was smiling and didn't talk to him, while in front, Uchiha Itachi and a young man were walking side by side on the street, chatting with each other.

That young man was sent by Aida Maki to take them to the warehouse.The girl would remind Gastrodia like this to prevent his words from making the other party unhappy and causing conflicts.

"Xinzi, what can't you say?"

"You have seen that guy's attitude, he doesn't look down on us at all!"

Gastrodia curled her lips and said unhappily.Uchiha Itachi, who was walking in front of the team, smiled apologetically at the young man beside him, then turned his head and said to Gastrodia:
"Gianma, you go to buy some supplies first, we are leaving tomorrow, we have to prepare in advance."

"Xinzi, go with Tianma."

Then he turned to the old man behind him and said:

"Uncle Gu Jie, you and I go to the warehouse to have a look."

Uchiha Itachi is very smart, he didn't lose face to Gastrodia in front of outsiders, he just dispatched a simple task to distract the other party.Gastrodia Ma was somewhat upset at first, but when she heard that Xinzi would accompany her in the purchase, she immediately happily agreed.

The two left the team, Kosuke Maruhoshi nodded with a smile, looking at Itachi Uchiha with eyes full of appreciation.The old man behind the blame is none other than Kosuke Maruhoshi, who is known as the strongest ninja among the Konohas. Veteran of Ninja War.

This time Namikaze Minato arranged for Itachi Uchiha to perform a mission, and also placed the old man in the team. As for the purpose, it is self-evident.The nine-year-old child led the team to carry out the task, even if it was the strength of Minato or even Itachi, he was somewhat worried.

Under the leadership of the youth, Uchiha Itachi and others soon arrived at the warehouse where the supplies were stored.

This time the mission is an escort mission, and the object of the escort is supplies.

Walking into the warehouse, the young man directed several people to move a huge wooden box with a seal on it. In front of everyone, the young man untied the seal.

"This thing, could it be?!" Maruyoshi Kosuke saw the thing in the box, his pupils shrank suddenly, he knew the thing in the box at this time.

Inside the huge box, there is a square piece of iron. If you want to describe it, it is the size of an ordinary computer case. It is surrounded by wooden frames, which firmly fix the iron piece in the center of the box.

Around the wooden frame, there are black curse marks, it seems that there are some mechanisms inside, but now, these curse marks do not seem to be activated.

"It seems that this gentleman recognizes that this thing is called star iron, which has very good chakra transmission ability."

"It only needs to add a little bit to the weapon to create a ninja with extraordinary power."

"This piece of iron needs to be transported to the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Craftsmen. They promised to make a batch of weapons for us in the Land of Fire. This is your mission this time."

The youth explained to Uchiha Itachi and Maruxing Kosuke.It is not surprising that Maruyoshi Kosuke can recognize the contents of the box.

"Such a big piece, if used to make ninja tools, can easily arm an army of a thousand people."

"Why do we need so many chakra weapons?"

Gu Jie seemed to be shocked by what he saw before. He had never seen such a large piece of star iron, and in his mind, there was also a question, what did the Kingdom of Fire need so many weapons for?
"That's not something you have to worry about. I've already told you all about the task, so I'll leave it to you."

"We will send two enchanters with you during the delivery. This box needs to be opened in a special way. After it is sent to the country of craftsmen, only the enchanters can open it."

"Escorting the enchanter to the country of craftsmen is also your task."

Uchiha Itachi didn’t realize the difficulty of this task at the beginning, he didn’t know much about strategic materials such as star iron, but after Maruhoshi Kosuke’s question, he immediately realized that the difficulty of this task seemed to have exceeded his imagination.

How could the important supplies that can arm a thousand-man army be just a simple C-level task?That Aida Maki, concealed the difficulty of the task!

"How can such an important thing be a C-level task?"

"If the enemy knows this information, they will definitely send a large number of ninjas to snatch it, and there will definitely be ninjas of the ninja level during the mission."

"According to the difficulty of the task, it should be an A-level task!"

Kosuke Maruyoshi's complexion was not very good. The distribution of the task was assigned by Godaime Hokage himself, but obviously, Minakaze absolutely didn't know what was to be escorted. If he knew, he would never send them, but sent Here comes the ninja from ninja class.

"Don't be nervous, the only people who know about this so far are Daimyo, Aida-sama, Fifth Hokage, me and you two."

"It's just an ordinary escort, and the news will never be leaked."

"The rating of C is actually due to this consideration. Low-level tasks will not attract the attention of others!"

"This matter was discussed with Hokage-sama."

The young man explained, and what he said caused Kosuke Maruyoshi's face to change slightly. At first he thought that Hokage didn't know what the mission was, but the other party's statement was different from his guess. Hokage actually knew what the delivery was. Under the premise, they were still dispatched to carry out the task.

Thinking of this, Kosuke Maruhoshi looked at Itachi Uchiha with a slightly different gaze. How could this young captain win the trust of Hokage so much?Can this level of task be given to this child?
"Okay, I understand, just leave it to us."

"Let's leave early tomorrow morning."

Itachi Uchiha looked calm and said easily.

Silent all night.

In the early morning of the next day, a convoy slowly walked out of the Daming Mansion. The entire team consisted of only eight people. At the front of the convoy was Itachi Uchiha, and on both sides of the convoy were Tianma and Xinzi, and at the back of the convoy , is Kosuke Maruhoshi.In the middle of the ninja team, supporting the mission target this time.

Two porters were pulling the cart. Beside the porters, there were two strangely dressed people whose faces were covered by light veils. These two were spirit formation masters from the Daming Mansion.

The entire convoy was not moving fast, and slowly walked out of the city.

Uchiha Itachi's attire today is very simple, a simple black outfit, two ninja pouches pinned to his waist, a forehead protector on his head, and a dagger on his back. Is a Chunin.

The Kingdom of Craftsmanship is a country created by the ancestors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Craftsman Ninja of the Kingdom of Craftsmen is famous for its excellent forging skills in the ninja world. It is a neutral island country located in the sea to the southeast of the Kingdom of Fire.Although it is a neutral island country, most of the ninja tools of the five strongest ninja villages in the world are made by this country.

It is precisely because of this that ninja spies from various countries are scattered in this neutral island country, and they must first inquire about the opponent's supplies.

And Uchiha Itachi's mission is to transport the star iron to the country of craftsmen.
