Open Treasure Chest Through Konoha

But then again.

According to the description of the village chief of Kaina, this monster has only one head, and it is unlikely that it is a psychic beast.

Most of them are some kind of huge and brutal beasts.

"...To tell you the truth, in fact, before you came, our village had raised money and asked a few ninjas from outside to help, and they also promised to go up the mountain to encircle and suppress the monster, but since then, they have never come back. Not long ago, we found their bodies in a cave on the mountain, and the scene was really appalling, two people's bodies were broken into pieces, and they couldn't put it back together..."

Recalling the scene at that time, the village head Kaina was full of sorrow.

"Ninja?"

Bai Mingyu's face was slightly startled, he glanced at Quan next to him, and asked subconsciously, "Which country's ninja, Chunin or Genin?"

Even ninjas were killed, which sounds amazing, but it also depends on the situation.

If the few ninjas killed were only gentes, it is normal, and the death rate of gentes has always been high.

If you are a chunin, you have to think carefully.

It is definitely impossible for Shangnin. If that monster has the ability to kill Shangnin, then the rating of this task is at least B-level, and it will never be assigned to Bai Mingyu and his rookie team to perform.

"It's a wandering ninja."

Before the village chief of Kaina could speak, Nara Shikahisa replied: "There are four ninjas recruited by them before, two of whom took the Chunin Exam held in the Land of Thunder three years ago and passed it smoothly. , and the other two are stubborn."

The so-called wandering ninjas are ninjas who do not belong to a ninja village.

There are frequent wars between various countries in the Naruto world, and there are often smaller countries that are tragically perished in the war. If the ninjas of these small countries do not choose to join the ninja villages of other countries, they will become wandering ninjas, relying on the acceptance of some ordinary people. entrusted in exchange for remuneration to maintain life.

As for their strength, they are uneven, some strong and some weak.

However, since he can pass the Chunin exam held by the Land of Thunder, he must have two brushes.

"In other words, at least two Chunin were killed by that monster?"

"Yes."

The village chief of Kaina sighed, looked at Bai Mingyu and Quan, and the three of you, the oily girl, and said, "So there is a sentence, in fact, I just wanted to ask, how many of you... Really can Can you help us out of trouble?"

doubt.

In the eyes of the village chief of Kaina, except for Nara Shikisa, the other three in this team are children.

The oldest oily girl took the roots, and she looked like she was in her teens.

This lineup went up the mountain to wipe out monsters... Are you sure it wasn't to deliver food?

Aware of the meaning of Kaina Village Chief's words, You Nu Togen had an expressionless face.

"Uncle, are you doubting our ability?"

Quan frowned slightly, and explained patiently: "Don't look at me and Bai Yujun are not very old, but we are both real ninjas, and Teacher Lu Jiu, who is also the elite of our Konoha Village, I I think no matter how difficult the trouble you are facing, as long as we work together, it will definitely be solved.

Right, White Feather-kun? "

"Ah... yes."

Bai Mingyu responded and glanced back at the oily girl to take the root.

Quan Wei didn't mention his name just now, and it wasn't intentional, but because this guy's presence was too low, he stood there like a wooden stake, and didn't say a single word except for necessary communication.Coupled with the black mask covering most of his face, he couldn't even make eye contact.

Therefore, even Bai Mingyu often forgets the existence of this guy, thinking that there are still only three people in the team.

This is a little embarrassing...

If I remember correctly, Shino, the oil girl of the Twelve Little Strong, seems to be in this situation.

"With this talent, it's a pity that people from the oil girl family don't play basketball..."

Bai Mingyu murmured secretly.

At this time, Nara Shikahisa had already turned his head: "Tell me about your plans, Bai Yu, Izumi, and Takegan, what are your thoughts?"

Chapter 45 The Will-o'-the-wisp in the depths of the forest

"idea……"

What else can you think of, copy the guy up the mountain and do it with him.

Bai Mingyu looked at Quan, the girl lowered her head and thought for a while, then slowly said: "According to Uncle Kaina, this monster's whereabouts are not fixed, but wandering around on the mountain, but once someone goes up the mountain and is encountered by it , you will encounter a brutal culling... Maybe we can use this to lure that monster out and destroy it!"

Nara Shikahisa nodded lightly: "That's right, but we still need to formulate a more detailed action plan, Shiroha, do you have anything else to add?"

"No, I think Quan has a good idea."

"Take the root... forget it."

The oily girl Togen was expressionless, and she didn't know if she had heard the conversation of a few people. She didn't say a word from beginning to end, as if she was an outsider.

The plan will be finalized soon.

That night, after dinner at the village chief's house, Bai Mingyu and others began to pack up and go up the mountain.

Although the whereabouts of the monster are uncertain, it is also possible to roughly infer its activity area from the locations where several villagers and wandering ninjas were killed before.

Under the leadership of the two young hunters in the village, the four quickly climbed the mountain and came to a forest.

"Just here."

Nara Shikahisa observed the surrounding terrain, turned around and said to Bai Mingyu and the others: "Fetching and I will go to the vicinity to investigate, Bai Yu, Izumi, you two will start the fire first, and tonight you will be sleeping in this forest. ."

No one knows when the monster will appear, so sleeping in the forest and waiting is part of the plan.

If you're lucky, you might see that monster tonight.

But if you are unlucky, staying here for three or five days is also possible.

"Good teacher."

Bai Mingyu and Uchiha Izumi responded, and Nara Shikahisa took the oil girl to take the roots, and soon disappeared into the overlapping tree shadows.

A bonfire burned in this clearing, and the beating flame licked the wood, making a crackling sound.

Bai Mingyu and Quan started to set up tents.

Survival in the wild is a compulsory course at the ninja school. When Bai Mingyu and Quan were in school, they scored a lot in this course. They quickly set up the tent and dug up some edible wild vegetables from the surrounding area. I rinsed the water bladder, put it on the iron pot rack and cooked it on the campfire.

"Several uncles, if you don't mind, come over and bake on the fire. There is also fresh vegetable soup. Drinking it will ease your body."

Bai Mingyu and Quan added firewood to the bonfire, watching the fire burn more and more vigorously, and turned back to greet the two hunters.

The two looked at each other and walked over to sit cross-legged.

One of them took out dry food and jerky from the package beside him, and pushed it forward: "Little brother, and this little girl, we also have some food here, which are all cured meat in the village. , the taste may not be very good, but there is nothing wrong with filling the stomach."

"Thanks."

Bai Mingyu took the jerky and gave Quan a few slices.

The entrance is a little dry, similar to air-dried bacon.

These hunters are out-and-out ordinary people.

Although they have been hunting in the deep mountains all the year round, they have honed a good skill, but compared to other ordinary villagers, they are no different from ordinary people in the face of fierce beasts.

Sitting by the bonfire, the two looked around from time to time, their faces full of worry.

"Don't worry, if the monster really appears, I and Izumi will ensure your safety."

"Yes, yes..." Orion smiled reluctantly, his tone a little flimsy.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the bushes not far away.

The two hunters were startled, and Bai Mingyu and Quan immediately tightened their nerves, and when they turned their heads to look, they had already touched the kunai in the ninja kit in their hands.

Soon, two figures came out from behind the bushes, and it was Nara Shikahisa who went to investigate and the oil girl to take the root.

Nara Shikaku held a simple map in his hand and was looking at it while walking, while the oil girl Togen was holding two hares and threw them on the ground expressionlessly, and said in a stiff tone: "This is me and Shikaku. Let's take a look at the prey the teacher hit just now."

After speaking lightly, the oil girl took the root and walked to the stump next to her and sat down, put the bag of debris on her body aside, and no longer paid attention to the movement around her.

"..."

Enigmatic Quiet.

Bai Mingyu and Quan looked at each other.

Although they have formed a team in name, in fact, the estrangement is obvious. Even if they try to ease the relationship with the oil girl, they still cannot find a chance to speak.The oily girl Fukugen is more interested in bugs than them, and would rather sit there and watch the ants climb the tree than come over to sit and chat with other people.

"Hehe...hehe, Big Brother Togen is really good. He caught these two hares without even using a shuriken."

Bai Mingyu tried to warm up.

There were no scars or bloodstains on the two hares, and it seemed that they were directly knocked out by the back of the knife. To be able to do this, they must have good skills and reflexes.

The oily girl took root and looked up, then lowered her head again: "It's just a coincidence."

Well, it seems that this guy is not completely lack of presence, to be precise, there are also some defects in personality.Probably spent a long time at the root, was brainwashed by Danzo day and night, has lost many normal human emotions, and turned into a machine dedicated to performing tasks, just like Saui in the future.

Bai Mingyu used Kuwu to cut open the hare's fur.

He shed his hair, took out his internal organs, cleaned his abdominal cavity, then sprinkled some seasonings, and put it on the bonfire with a wooden stick.

The aroma of grilled meat gradually spread out.

After a few people shared the roasted rabbit meat, the sky was completely dark, and the bonfire was cleaned up, and Nara Shikahisa began to arrange vigils.

In a group of two, Bai Mingyu and Oil Girl Togen were guarded by Bai Mingyu in the first half of the night, and replaced by Nara Shikajiu and Izumi in the second half of the night.

After instructing some precautions, Nara Shikahisa also entered the tent.

The snoring grew, and the woods fell silent again, save for the crackling of the bonfire.

"Brother Takegen, do you have any understanding of the goal of our mission...?"

Idle is also idle, Bai Mingyu turned around to talk to the oily girl.

Until now, he has not completely let go of his vigilance about the oil girl taking root. After all, this guy is a person sent by Danzo, maybe he has some unknown purpose. The intelligence is not realistic, but if you say a few more words, you can find some clues.

Facing Bai Mingyu's question, Oil Girl Togen was silent for a while. "Hasn't Mr. Shikaku already explained the task in detail?"

"That's what I said, but I heard that Brother Togen, you are a ninja who is very good at collecting and analyzing intelligence. You should know more than that?"
