Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

Chapter 132 Adult Knowledge

in the forest.

Shirokumo Aoba and Uzuki Yugao were advancing side by side.

He was unaware that Kurenai Yuhi was already devising a way to interrogate him.

Because he is feeling a bit down right now.

Although Kusagakure was dirt poor, there was still some money to be made, like that... you can always squeeze some out.

He could have made a fortune in Kusagakure simply because Tsunade changed the mission at the last minute.

It seems that apart from Karin and her daughter, there may be no other opportunities to profit.

Let's go back two hours.

The Hokage inauguration ceremony has concluded.

Shirokumo Aoba, Uzuki Yugao, and Yuhi Kurenai stood in the Hokage's office.

Exchange and introduce to each other.

Both Uzuki Yugao and Yuhi Kurenai had excited expressions on their faces.

They have received notification that they have been selected as the Hokage's bodyguards.

This is a tremendous honor.

When Tsunade returned to her office, she took off her Hokage hat and tossed it aside.

This thing is really uncomfortable to wear, it's a wonder that the old man can wear it all the time.

Tsunade sat back down and looked at the three people standing neatly in their seats.

"I have a task for you."

"us?"

At first, Uzuki Yugao didn't think anything of it, but then she suddenly realized that Shirokumo Aoba seemed to have been included as well.

"Lady Tsunade, is Aoba coming with us too?"

Tsunade nodded. "He's quite strong now, and this mission isn't too difficult, so let's just treat it as an opportunity to gain some experience."

The entire Grass Ninja Village can't even produce a decent Jonin, and they don't have any special skills.

The real danger is that there might be Iwagakure or Sunagakure ninjas hiding inside.

"Your mission is to investigate the situation inside Kusagakure, and to find out if there are any Iwagakure or Sunagakure ninja stationed there. Return immediately after you have found out."

"Xiyan, you will be leading the team this time. Please be careful. After this mission is completed, your application to become a Jonin will be approved."

"understand!"

Uzuki Yugao's expression also became very serious, not because she was about to become a Jonin, but because this was Aoba's first mission.

Both Shirokumo Aoba and Yuhi Kurenai were somewhat bewildered.

Why is this mission different from what we agreed on? Weren't we supposed to teach the Grass Ninja Village a lesson?

He was even planning to extort money from Kusagakure.

How did it suddenly change from a combat mission to a reconnaissance mission?

Kurenai was completely taken aback.

Aside from Shirokumo Aoba, who would accompany them on missions.

More importantly, it's because Uzuki Yugao, who is much younger than her and also a fellow Hokage guard, is about to become a Jonin.

And she hasn't even passed the Special Jonin exam yet.

The main gate of Konoha.

Under Kurenai's astonished gaze.

Uzuki Yugao cuddled with Shirokumo Aoba for a long time, and even secretly kissed her soft little face a few times.

It left her speechless.

Although she had the urge to tease the cute little boy when she saw him, wasn't that going a bit too far?

……

Let's go back to the present.

The three of them walked quietly through the woods.

Even the somewhat daydreaming Kurenai maintained her own pace, without making much noise.

Time passed, and darkness fell.

The three stopped just as they were about to leave the Land of Fire.

Nothing happened along the way.

They had never even seen the bandits who robbed people on the road.

"Let's rest here tonight."

Uzuki Yugao found a relatively secluded spot and looked at the two of them. "Aoba, you stay here and keep watch and set up the tent. Kurenai-senpai, you're in charge of setting up the traps. I'll go scout the area."

"understand!"

Both of them agreed at the same time.

After the tent was set up, Baiyun Qingye was a little confused.

Is there only one tent?

"When camping in the wild, the smaller the target, the safer!"

Uzuki Yugao answered seriously, then asked in return, "Do you hate sleeping with your older sister?"

"No, I just have some doubts."

"That's good."

Mao Yuexi showed a faint smile.

"..."

White clouds and green leaves remain silent.

Kurenai Yuhi had been secretly observing from the sidelines, and her keen intuition told her that the two were definitely more than just siblings with a good relationship.

After a quick meal of dry rations.

"Qingye, there's still some time. Would you like your older sister to teach you some adult knowledge that's not taught in school?"

Uzuki Yugao winked at him playfully.

Is there still time for classes?

However, this is also a kind of experience, and Baiyun Qingye had no objection and nodded.

Uzuki Yugao's expression turned serious as she said, "This mission is special because it's a direct task from Lady Tsunade."

"But if it's a regular mission, do you know what the first thing a ninja should do after accepting the mission?"

Bai Yun Qingye thought for a moment and said, "Shall we verify the authenticity of the mission first?"

Because he thought of the first mission of the main characters in the original work.

It was supposed to be a simple escort mission, but the client deliberately withheld information.

I went straight from C-rank to A-rank and encountered an early-game mini-boss as soon as I left the house.

Kakashi, the top Jonin of Konoha, was so weak that he was unconscious for several days.

"That's right!"

Uzuki Yugao nodded in satisfaction.

This kid isn't stupid!

"After accepting a task, you must verify the specific details of the task before you begin to execute it."

"Otherwise, some clients might conceal the truth for various reasons, and every year quite a few ninjas are injured or killed because of this."

Uzuki Yugao continued, "Next, during the mission, you must..."

"..."

Uzuki Yugao spoke at length, which enlightened Baiyun Qingye as if he had been given a sudden awakening.

They've all grown up a lot all at once.

"Alright, it's about time. Aoba, you should rest now. Senior Kurenai and I will take turns keeping watch."

Uzuki Yugao patted Shirokumo Aoba's head.

"Okay." Bai Yunqingye walked towards the tent.

Although he wasn't sleepy at all, Uzuki Yugao would probably force him to lie down.

"Wait a moment!"

After agonizing for half a day, Kurenai finally spoke.

She walked up to Baiyun Qingye.

"Small……"

She paused for a moment, then suddenly remembered that the other person was now a disciple of the Hokage and could no longer be called a brat, so she changed her address.

"Aoba, can we talk alone? There's something I want to ask you."

"Huh? Me?"

Baiyun Qingye pointed to herself in confusion.

Kurenai Yuhi nodded.

Uzuki Yugao was a little confused. Why... did they want to talk to her alone, away from her?

Seeing that it was indeed someone looking for her, Shirokumo Aoba didn't hesitate and took the initiative to hold Yuhi Kurenai's hand.

"Then let's go."

Kurenai took him to a place alone.

"Sister Hong, is there something you need?"

"Red... Red-neechan?" Kurenai Yuhi was stunned by Shirokumo Aoba's address before she could even speak.

"Then..." Seeing that Kurenai Yuhi seemed dissatisfied, Aoba Shirakumo thought for a moment and changed her form of address.

"Aunt Hong?"
