After a brief introduction, the ANBU team left Konoha and headed towards the border area.
On the way, the team members communicated with each other to ensure that the ninjutsu used in the battle would not affect teammates and cause accidental injuries.
After this exchange, the team members returned to an atmosphere of silence.
As the captain, Kakashi was taciturn, while Hinata Zou and Uchibo looked at Asuma with resentment.
Asuma, the only one unwilling to be lonely, lit a cigarette to relieve the boredom.
But before he could take a few puffs, the cigarette was extinguished by the strong wind.
After the last encounter, it was impossible for Hinata Zou and Yin to let Asuma smoke again, as he might attract some strange species.
After several failures, Asma sensed something was wrong and finally gave up.
Smoking was not compulsory. He always felt that when he smoked, his back felt cold, as if he was being stared at by a wild animal.
Along the way, Hinata opened his eyes from time to time, observing the surrounding situation and maintaining full vigilance.
During one of the few previous C-level missions, he and Yin encountered wandering ninjas on the way, and one of them turned out to be a renegade Jonin from Xiao Ninja Village.
However, the Jonin of Xiao Ninja Village, whose strength is equivalent to that of the Konoha Chuunin elite, were easily solved by them.
It is precisely because of that experience that Hyugazo and Uchibo were extremely vigilant about this A-level mission, for fear of encountering an invincible enemy.
Therefore, the two people with such a mentality fully demonstrated their excellent ninja qualities in front of Kakashi and Asuma. Whether they were setting traps or setting up camp, they were impeccable.
Kakashi and Asuma stood on the canopy of the tree, looking at the two busy people below, and they couldn't help but admire them.
But when they thought of these two people, they actually carried out the mission in the name of genin.
His face gradually became weird, and he could only lament that among the genin in the village, there was a crouching tiger, hidden dragon.
Not long after, darkness enveloped the land, and the ANBU team raised a bonfire in the camp and sat around it.
It can't be reached from the village to the border in a day or two. Even with ninja's pace, it will take at least several days.
The flames dispersed the dampness in the forest and brought bursts of warmth. Kakashi took out the mission scroll and prepared to explain the mission in detail.
But when he saw Uchihara and Hyugazo with their mouths full of oil and holding roast chicken.
Suddenly I felt a little dull, I swallowed my saliva, and the Bingliang Pill in my hand suddenly lost its aroma.
"Captain Kakashi, do you want to eat?"
Hyugazo pulled off a chicken leg and handed it to Kakashi. Then he looked at Asuma and pulled off another leg:
"You want it too, right?"
Asuma nodded. He had long felt that the military food pills were bland and difficult to swallow.
In addition to restoring some chakra, Bing Liang Pills taste like mud pills.
Hinata glanced at Asuma and pointed to the depths of the woods, "There are a lot of them there, help yourself if you need them. I've already prepared spices and stuff..."
"..."
Asuma's face looked like he had swallowed a fly. He stood up from the campfire without saying a word and took out a kunai.
Can Asuma, the son of the Hokage, the rebellious young man, bear this anger?
Hinata sighed, pressed Asuma's shoulder, and handed the remaining roast chicken to him and Kakashi.
He had prepared food for four people in advance, but he was still a little angry.
Asuma was so angry that he left his comfortable life as a genin and a ninja school teacher.
"We ate, what did you eat?" Asuma looked at Hinata Zang.
Hinata glanced at Asuma, pointed at Uchihara, approached the latter, and opened his mouth.
Uchibo also knew how to cut off a large piece of chicken and put it into Hinata Zou's mouth.
"You guys have a really good relationship..." Asma's mouth twitched, and he felt that the roast chicken suddenly lost its flavor.
"Well..." Hinata Zang nodded and said disapprovingly: "We are teammates who are close to each other in life and death."
The hiccup between camps passed quickly.
Kakashi, who remained silent and didn't know when he would finish eating, began to explain the mission and his views on the mission.
Kakashi talked a lot about his mission experience after becoming a Jonin.
Hinata Zang summed up two key points: if you can win, fight, and if you can't, run away.
Anyway, Asuma and Kakashi stay in the team, so they don't have to worry about the punishment for failing the mission.
It was late at night, and the camp kept vigil in batches to prepare for possible attacks.
Hinata Zou and Uchibo spent the next half of the night, and Asuma and Kakashi spent the first half of the night.
Surrounding the bonfire, Hinata took out his coat and covered Yin's body, staring at the starry night sky and the crescent moon.
During the mission, it was naturally impossible for him to conduct experiments on natural chakra.
After many experiments, he has been able to control the input ratio, at least not letting the bell cat go into a state of rage.
He also conducted a considerable number of experiments on other animals.
He discovered that his natural chakra can be retained in the bodies of other animals, but he has not yet started experimental research on humans.
Perhaps his black lines and transformed natural chakra are more mysterious and powerful than he imagined.
Maybe he has the ability to quickly cultivate psychic beasts, or even have a more bold idea, such as artificially creating a large number of ninjas or psychic beasts that can use sage mode.
Thoughts were fermenting in his mind, and Hyugazo even had the idea of omnipotence.
But when he touched his forehead subconsciously, he suddenly became sober. No matter how powerful he was, he was just a member of the branch family. As long as the caged bird existed for one day, he had to be bound to Konoha.
Although my current life is good, it still makes me feel unhappy.
With his ambition dissipated in his heart, Hinata looked down and found that Uchibo had fallen asleep.
Although it was the middle of the night today that he and Yin were on duty together, in previous missions, their team only had two people.
Stretching out his hand, Hinata wanted to touch Yin's face, but finally shook his head and gave up the idea.
As a member of the Hinata, his interests are more in line with Hinata's than those of Uchiha.
They are just comrades who have been on missions together for three years, nothing more.
Moving Yin's hand away, Hyugazo quietly left the camp, preparing to go out for a patrol. He had long passed the age of going to bed early, and the pressure of life kept him from sleeping.
After walking a few steps, Hinata was on the nearby cliff and saw Asuma and Kakashi keeping watch.
They did not stand together, but were separated by dozens or hundreds of meters. It seemed that they had no intention of talking at night.
After all, their team is more like a temporary and specially put together team.
They have not experienced any special ANBU training at all. They are called an ANBU team, but in fact they are just ordinary teams that obey the orders of the Hokage.
Passing by Asuma who was hiding behind a rock and secretly smoking, Hinata walked towards Kakashi.
Kakashi is the leader of this team, has the power of command, and is also the only jounin.
Hyugazo always feels that Kakashi's state is not good for carrying out missions, and he might issue stupid orders in a few days.
So for his own life, he needs to have a good talk with Kakashi.
There are even more problem children in ANBU than in Ninja School.
As a teacher at the Ninja School, I naturally do my part.
