MTL - Naruto: I Can Only Draw S-rank Rewards-Chapter 23
The black crow was already waiting in the room, but the night owl and hummingbird were not there.
"Night Cat and the others have a mission today. They're going to patrol the village. Let's go. I'll take you to the new team room. Your team members are already waiting for you."
"Excuse me, Captain Black Crow," Laidlaw said.
"Don't be so polite, you are on the same level as me now."
After Black Crow finished speaking, he took Laylo around the base again, and then stopped in front of a room door.
He knocked on the door, and with a "please come in", the black crow opened the door.
Looking at the three waiting in the room, the black crow pointed directly at Lai Luo and said, "This is your new captain, Black Shark."
"Hello, Captain Black Shark!" The three of them shouted in unison.
Immediately afterwards, the black crow said to Lai Luo: "You just took over the team, you can ask me if you don't understand anything, you can do it first."
Then he turned and left.
Entering the room, Lai Luo looked at the three people who were staring at him in front of him. He didn't know what to say for a while. He remembered the scene of the day he had just reported to Anbu, and he said directly: "Let's introduce yourself first!"
"I, codenamed Black Shark, will be your captain from now on. I'm good at light escape and physical art."
A ninja with a dog-face mask spoke first: "I, codenamed Canine, am good at reconnaissance and taijutsu."
Then a fox mask ninja: "I, codenamed Firefox, am good at fire and wind."
Finally, there is a female ninja wearing a snake face mask: "I, codenamed Red Snake, am good at snake ninjutsu and fire escape."
After listening to the introduction of the three team members, Lai Luo also had some simple guesses about their identities.
Inuya is good at reconnaissance and physical art, plus this code name and mask, it is estimated that it belongs to the Inuzuka clan.
Firefox has nothing special to say for sure.
The red snake is good at snake ninjutsu, but isn't snake ninjutsu a unique ninjutsu of Orochimaru?
Looking at the way Chi Snake looked at him again, it seemed that he knew his true identity under the mask and also knew him.
Could it be that the red snake is...
A name popped into Lai Luo's mind.
"Could it be red beans?"
Although Lai Luo was basically certain in his heart, he did not show it.
Laidlaw has understood the intricate situation of his squad.
As a member of the Inuzuka clan, Inuya must be a staunch supporter of Hokage. It should be specially arranged by the third generation of Sarutobi Hizen, and it can be regarded as a kind of surveillance.
And Chi Snake, the person who may be Red Bean, should be the person from Orochimaru, also came to check his situation.
Although Firefox didn't show anything special, Lai Luo still suspected that he might be a Danzo person, and of course, a Sarutobi Hijen person.
Now that I have gotten to know the team members, no matter why they came, they will all be teammates who want to do tasks together in the future, but they still need to remain vigilant.
In the next few days, the tasks Lai Luo received were some simple patrol tasks. Although it was a bit boring, it also made the team more familiar.
......
Time flies, a month has passed in a blink of an eye.
And at this moment, Lai Luo is rushing to the Anbu base.
This morning, Lai Luo received a special instruction, and he knew that Hokage had dispatched a mission to their team.
So he went straight to Anbu without a moment's delay.
"Black Shark, this is the task that Naruto-sama handed over to your team." The ninja at the Anbu mission handed a scroll to Lai Luo.
Lai Luo took the scroll, this is the mission book this time.
Lai Luo opened the mission book and looked at it, and understood that the mission this time was to sneak into the country of water to spy on intelligence.
It was written in the mission book that the country of water suddenly recalled most of the ninjas recently, and it seemed that there was a big move, but the informants lurking in the country of water did not return any news, so they had to send Anbu to investigate.
Lai Luo returned to the room, and the three members of the team were already waiting.
"Captain, have you received the mission?" Houndstooth asked Laiduo, who walked into the room.
"Well, our mission this time is to dive into the Land of Water to investigate intelligence!" Lai Luo nodded.
Lai Luo introduced the situation described in the mission book to several team members.
Then he went on to say: "This mission is relatively urgent, and we need to set off immediately. If you have a better understanding of the country of water, you can talk about it first."
Hearing the words, Firefox said, "Captain, I went to the Land of Water to do a mission before. I suggest that we go out of the Land of Waves first, and then use the insides in the caravan to avoid the guards and sneak into the Land of Water safely."
"Okay, then we'll just follow what you said, what do you think?" Laidlaw asked, looking at Canine Fang and Red Snake.
Both Houndtooth and Red Snake said there was no problem.
"Then prepare the supplies and go!"
"Yes!"
After leaving Konoha through Anbu's special passage, Laylo's team went directly to the country of waves.
When Anbu performs a mission, all iconic things cannot be brought, such as forehead guards, and even some iconic ninjutsu cannot be used.
Once encountering ninjas from other villages, something too iconic will reveal Anbu's affiliation. Unless it is some special task, such as chasing and killing rebellion, it is not allowed to do so.
Putting on Anbu's standard suits and wearing masks, the four people chose some unpopulated places to hurry on their way, just to hide their eyes and ears and try to avoid revealing their whereabouts.
A few days later, the four came to the country of waves smoothly.
The country of waves is a country without its own ninjas, sandwiched between the country of fire and the country of water, relying on the breath of the two countries to survive.
The four of them came to the wharf of the Land of Waves. The wharf was very lively, with a large number of ship merchants coming and going, dragons and snakes mixed, and the four who used the transformation technique to become ordinary ninjas were not noticeable. Next to the cargo ship with the leaf cipher pattern.
The owner of the cargo ship was a big man with a fat body and a thick waist. He was yelling at the workers who were carrying the goods. When he saw the four of them approaching, he was just about to ask aloud, but when he saw the code from Lai Luo, he immediately motioned calmly with his eyes. The four entered the cabin.
Inside the cabin, the mighty man outside suddenly became servile and bowed, and said respectfully to the four of them, "Lord Konoha's ninja, what can I do for you?"
Lai Luo asked: "Has there been any movement in the Land of Water recently? We need to enter the Land of Water as soon as possible."
When the big man heard it, he hurriedly said, "The country of water is suddenly under martial law. We don't know what happened, but I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to pass the inspection."
"It's okay, you just need to send us to the waters of the Land of Water, we have other options for the rest," Lai Luo said.
"Yes!" The big man was helpless, but he agreed, and then went out for the whole ship and set off soon.
All the way, the sea was calm, and the ship ran smoothly, and unknowingly entered the waters of the Land of Water.
Chapter 37 Entering the Land of Water! Gossip of Konoha!
The owner of the ship walked into the cabin again and said to the four of Lai Luo: "Lord Ninja, the waters of the Land of Water are here."
Lai Luo nodded when he heard the words, took the team members, avoided everyone on the ship, and left under the watchful eyes of the ship owner.
The sea is calm and the waves are calm, and the sun shines on the sea, just like pieces of fish scales, with sparkling waves, which can be described as picturesque.
But everyone in Laylo didn't appreciate it.
The four figures stood on the sea as if walking on the ground, and Firefox asked Lei Luo: "Captain, there is still a distance from the land of the Land of Water, what should we do now?"
Lai Luo replied: "Don't worry, look at me!"
"The art of psychic!"
Laylo pretended to be psychic, but actually summoned Tam directly.
I saw a huge vortex suddenly appear at the feet of everyone, and the three of them were so frightened that they immediately took a defensive posture.
Then a giant catfish emerged from the whirlpool and floated to the surface.
"The world is a river, and I am its king." Tam said, "Nice to meet you, my lord!"
Laylo said to the three who were stunned looking at the huge Tam: "This is my psychic beast, it's called Tam, and he can take us directly to the land of water."
Then he turned his head to Tam and said, "I'll trouble you this time, Tam."
Tam nodded like a gentleman, "It's my honor to help you, Master!"
"Abyss Snorkeling" is Tam's skill. He can take his teammates to snorkel within a certain range of water. Now Tam's skill level is MAX, and the distance of this teleportation has reached 8,500 meters.
Tam opened his mouth wide open on the surface of the water, waiting for Laylo to enter.
"Let's go!"
Saying that, Lai Luo led the team members into Tam's mouth.
In the original plot, Jirai also relied on the psychic technique to sneak into Yuyin Village, and Tam, as the king of the river, can carry several people for abyss diving at a time.
Compared to Jiraiya's psychic toad, it is more useful.
Tam closed his mouth, spun down, and disappeared into the sea.
…
At the same time, the country of fire, the hidden village of Konoha.
I don't know when it started, some rumors suddenly appeared in the village.
There were several villagers standing next to each other.
"Have you heard? The border was attacked by Yunyin this time, and the losses were heavy. Many ninjas were sacrificed. This is the result of Hatake Sakumo!"
"No, is it a mistake? What does this have to do with Hatake Sakumo?"
"Didn't you hear about it? It is said that a while ago, Hatake Sakumo led a team to Yunyin to perform a secret mission, but the mission failed, which led to this attack!"
"Oh, you're talking about that! I also heard that it was said that the mission could have been successfully completed, but Hatake Sakumo, in order to save his comrade, gave up the overall situation and voluntarily gave up this mission halfway through."
"Rescue a companion? I don't think it's that simple. Abandoning the mission is a big taboo for ninjas! Hatake Sakumo is an elite jonin, how could he make such a low-level mistake?"
"Who knows? Maybe someone secretly colluded with Yunyin and betrayed us Konoha? Otherwise, how could we have lost so much in this attack!"
"I think so too, I can't rule out this possibility..."
......
A whirlpool suddenly appeared on an inaccessible river in the Land of Water.
A huge catfish appeared on the water, then opened its mouth wide, and four people came out of his mouth.
This trip is exactly the four of Lai Luo.
"Tam, thank you, you should go back first." Laylo said to Tam, then lifted the summon and let Tam go back to Valoran.
"Captain, I didn't expect you to have such a powerful psychic beast." Houndstooth said excitedly to Lai Luo.
Lai Luo didn't say much, nodded "um", and then said: "Let's go, let's see what's going on in the country of water now."
…
Whoosh whoosh.
In the mountains and forests in the dark night, silhouettes galloped past, and the grass and trees on both sides were swayed by the wind driven by the shadows. The shadow stopped from time to time to check it out, as if it was chasing some traces.
in the forest.
The two shadows galloped between them, looking back from time to time, even if they didn't see the pursuers, they didn't stop.
After running for a long time, they finally stopped, and only then did they see the appearance of the two shadows.
This is a middle-aged man wearing a sky blue robe and looking elegant and stable. The long run made him gasp for breath, making him look a little embarrassed.
And he was holding a 5.6-year-old child in his hand. There was some confusion on his immature face, but his handsome face looked very cute. He must be a handsome guy when he grew up.
"Master, why are the people in the village chasing us?" the child asked, filled with doubts.
"Yu Gao, I don't blame you for this, but you know that there is a monster sealed in your body, and he has caused great damage to the village, so the village will send people to chase us. But don't worry, Master will definitely I will protect you." The middle-aged man touched the child's head and comforted him with a kind face.
It turns out that these two people are the six-tailed person Zhu Li Yugao and his master Naito Yu.
"Yu Gao, you are the greatest hope of our Yuzhi clan, and you will definitely lead us to rise again!" Naito Yu said firmly.
"Yeah! Master, I will try my best!" Yu Gao nodded solemnly.
It turned out that when Yu Gao had just become a Six-Tailed Human Pillar Force when he was in Wuyin Village before, he had no way to control the power of the Six-Tails in his body, and the sealing technique of Wuyin Village was not very perfect, and it was a little loose.
When the seal was loosened, the six-tailed rhinoceros seized the opportunity to occupy Yugao's body, ran out, and wreaked havoc in Wuyin Village. And the poor informant of Konoha, who had no news, died in the destruction of the six tails.
Looking at the destroyed village, Mizukage was furious and felt that Yugao was a failure in the human column, and wanted to pull out the six tails from Yugao's body and replace it with a human column after Yugao woke up.
