Chapter 239 Departure
Chapter 239 Departure
The next morning.
At the entrance to the Uchiha clan's territory.
The six students in Class 5 are all ready to go.
This was their first time going out on a mission, and they were quite excited.
Karin was handing out candy to everyone, but Kimimaro and Gaara both refused.
Shiro, Shion, and Yakumo Kurama stuffed the candy into their mouths.
Qianyao arrived here just in time.
"Master!" Karin ran over happily, wanting to give Chiyo candy.
As a result, Qianyao reached out and picked him up.
"What's that on your back?" Qian Yao asked, frowning.
Karin was carrying a huge package on her back, which looked very heavy.
"Uh, of course, it's supplies for going out."
Karin's eyes darted around for a moment, then she said confidently.
"Oh?"
Based on Chiyo's understanding of Karin, it would be good enough if she didn't try to cheat or be cunning; how could she possibly memorize so much?
He reached out and easily untied the bag.
"Ah! Master, no!"
Karin looked miserable as she saw a pile of snacks scattered around her.
People can actually laugh when they're speechless.
Qianyao was so angry he laughed.
He reached out and gave Karin a sharp rap on the head: "This is a mission, not a picnic."
Chiyo looked around and noticed that Shion and Kurama Yakumo also had a package on their backs.
Although much smaller than Karin, judging from their evasive expressions, they were probably also eating.
Karin rubbed her forehead and said pitifully to Chiyo:
"Master, we'll eat quickly, it won't delay the mission."
Just then, a black cat came running from not far away.
"Lord Qianyao, urgent message!"
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that this black cat was wearing a special vest.
It's clearly a ninja cat.
Qianyao raised an eyebrow and took the letter from Ninja Cat's hand.
"I understand, thank you for your hard work."
After bowing to Qianyao, the black cat disappeared.
Qianyao opened the letter and his heart skipped a beat!
found it!
The underground ruins have been found!
After searching for so long, I finally found it.
The ruins themselves aren't important; what's important is the Grell mine inside Ruins One.
Grell Mine is a mineral containing the water of life. With this, his plans can be accelerated across the board.
He immediately notified his clone at home. When he came to his senses, Karin was still staring pitifully at Chiyo.
Since Chiyo was in a good mood, he stopped caring about Karin.
"Alright, this time I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget."
“Carry your snacks on your back and see if you feel they’re heavy.”
"Oh! Master is so kind!"
Karin cheered and happily stuffed the snacks into her bag.
Qian Yao waved his hand: "Let's go!"
……
Qianyao's family.
Qianyao's clone moved out of the shadows of his room.
Liuli leaned against Zhiyu like a docile kitten.
Zhiyu whispered something to Liuli, her eyes full of doting affection.
Qianyao didn't disturb them; he was just thinking about whether he should provoke Zhiyu.
At least Zhiyu has a three-tomoe Sharingan, so if...
After thinking about it for a moment, Qianyao decided to put the matter aside for the time being and find Orochimaru first.
He moved through the shadows and soon arrived at Orochimaru's laboratory.
Orochimaru has many challenges.
Besides the regeneration of severed limbs and the modification of the Impure World Reincarnation, Orochimaru also researched a way to undo the Reaper Death Seal.
Finally, there's the research on the Uchiha eyes.
"You actually came in a clone? What happened?"
Orochimaru, with his keen senses, naturally noticed that Chiyo had slipped out of the shadows and was approaching.
Qianyao rose from the shadows:
"The underground ruins have been found. Get everything arranged and come with me."
When Orochimaru opened his eyes, Chiyo could feel the light emanating from them.
"I don't need to prepare anything here. I'll just let Dou know."
"Take the large storage scroll with you," Qianyao instructed, then slipped into Orochimaru's shadow.
Be careful when you go out.
After quickly arranging everything, Orochimaru immediately left the Uchiha clan's territory.
……
In a good mood, Qianyao and his six little ones began their first mission.
Task difficulty level: C.
The mission objective is to eliminate the bandits entrenched on Yaqing Mountain.
The bandits on this mountain are all ordinary people, but they are all strong and healthy adult men, and it is easy to get injured if you are not careful.
For ninjas with high attack but low defense, caution is the first lesson they need to learn.
On the other hand, it's about letting these children see blood.
After all, they're all genin; the sooner they see blood, the sooner they'll mature.
Mount Yagure is located closer to the land of water, and at the pace of these little ones, it might take four to five days.
Qianyao leaped continuously from tree to tree, leading the six children forward.
Karin, who had been so confident before, was starting to feel the strain after running for four hours straight.
She carried the most things and is now extremely exhausted.
Karin had already calculated that, based on her usual consumption on the ground, she could easily afford the weight of the snacks in the package.
However, he did not expect that after leaving the outer forest of Konoha, there would be no roads, and all of them would have to jump from tree to tree.
As she leaped, the object behind her swayed continuously, and Karin's stamina was rapidly depleting.
This makes it less of a problem if the distance is short, but it's been four hours already...
"Teacher Chiyo..." Kurama Yakumo called out breathlessly.
"Could...could I take a break?"
Karin felt as if she had been granted a pardon and quickly chimed in, "Master, Yakumo is tired, let's take a rest."
Qianyao glanced at the sky; it was almost noon.
"Let's rest and have something to eat first!"
"Hooray!" Karin and Shion, the two mischievous girls, immediately cheered.
I quickly took out various foods from my bag, intending to finish some so the journey would be easier.
Chiyo landed next to Kurama Yakumo to check on the situation.
Kurama Yakumo is very stubborn, and he only spoke up now that his face had turned pale.
"I'm sorry, Professor Qianyao, I've delayed everyone's progress."
Despite his physical discomfort, Yakumo apologized to Chiyo.
"Don't say anything silly. You'll graduate together and be in the same class, so naturally you'll have to support each other."
"You are very capable and will be able to help everyone in the future."
After being comforted by Chiyo, Yakumo felt a little better.
Chiyo briefly examined Yakumo's body and said:
"You're fine, it's just that you're currently too weak to quickly draw chakra."
"Where's the medicine Orochimaru prescribed for you?"
Yakumo quickly took a bottle out of his bag: "It's all here."
Qianyao gestured for her to take the medicine, and then said:
"If you're not feeling well, stop early and don't push yourself. Everyone needs rest too."
Yakumo nodded somewhat timidly: "I understand, Senyou-sensei."
