The Senju remnants of the Uchiha clan

Chapter 14: The First Mission of a Ninja Career
Two days later, at the main gate of Konoha Village.

When the white bird arrived late with a haggard look on his face, everyone was shocked.

"I say...are you okay, guy?"

Asuma felt a little strange when he saw Shiratori's face which looked like he had kidney deficiency.

What have you been doing these two days?

"It's okay, I just have insomnia." Shiratori stretched out his hands and rubbed his face hard, trying to wake himself up.

The task of escorting supplies this time was carried out by four teams. Except for the leader of his team, Aburame Shiwei, the other three jonins were Sarutobi Suiten, a jonin from the Akimichi clan, and a jonin from the Hyuga clan, whom he had met before.

The captain of this mission is Sarutobi Suiten.

I don't know the Hyuga clan's jonin Shiratori, but I have heard of the jonin Shiratori of Akimichi.

Akimichi Choza, the young patriarch of the Akimichi clan, commander of the Southeast Camp, Akimichi Tokiwa, an elite jonin of the Hidden Leaf Village, and also Asuma's team leader.

Come to think of it, if I hadn't intervened, Asuma and Yuhi Kurenai would have been in the same team...

Forget it, as the saying goes, distance makes beauty. Maybe this way Asma and Hong will confirm their relationship sooner.

He paid special attention to the four jonin, but as for the other team members, Shiratori just glanced at them casually and no longer cared about them!

Did something strange just flash by?

Shiratori paused, looked around again, and then fixed his gaze behind Sarutobi Suiten.

White Bird: “.”

No, what the hell is this look of yours?

I’ve only heard of combing hair to look like an adult, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone comb their hair to look like Patrick, and it’s a pink hair one…

Are you afraid that no one will pay attention to you on the battlefield? Do you think you are dying too slowly?

What's the difference between this and running naked on the battlefield to provoke?
If a fight breaks out, I will definitely stay away from you!

Feeling Shiratori's ambiguous gaze, the Chunin with a non-mainstream hairstyle behind Suiten shuddered.

"Ahem - Shiratori, everyone is waiting for you!" Aburame Shiwei coughed lightly.

"Ohhhh sorry sorry."

Shiratori hurried back to the team, but his mind was still thinking about the non-mainstream thing just now.

This thing...why do I feel like I've seen it somewhere before?

"Now that everyone is here, let me explain the mission process."

Sarutobi Suiten glared at Asuma who still wanted to talk to Shiratori, and seeing that the other party was unwilling to shut up under the intimidation of his eyes, he began to introduce him to everyone.

The mission this time requires four ninja teams to complete together, which is to escort the second batch of supplies needed for the front line to the southeast camp. The mission deadline is within seven days. The supplies include food, medicine, ninja tools, and some letters from ninjas.

Unlike the long procession of ox carts, horse carriages and even carts that Shiratori had imagined, all the supplies were sealed in scrolls. A large number of scrolls were neatly stacked in boxes, and they had to carry them themselves.

This saved manpower and material resources and greatly shortened the time, but it posed a challenge to the physical strength of everyone, especially the Genin - each wooden box weighed forty kilograms.

Of course, this is relatively easy for Shiratori.

Because since he was three years old, Senju Takiichi had Shiratori carry huge solid wood or even stones for weight training. Thinking carefully, he is also very carefree, not afraid that his grandson will be stunted and not grow tall...

After saying this, Sarutobi Suiten ordered everyone to carry the wooden boxes and head towards the southeast camp.

The escort team was led by a Hyuga clan jonin, who was in charge of leading the way and reconnaissance. Shiko's team was on the left, Choza's team was on the right, and Sarutobi Suiten was the captain, sitting in the rear, ready to provide support and command the battle at any time.

In this way, the group headed southeast. Five days later.

The ninja world is much larger than Shiratori imagined. Taking the backbone of each faction - the Chunin - as an example, it would take at least seven days for a Chunin to cross the Land of Fire at full speed.

Konoha Village is roughly located in the center of the Land of Fire, and it takes at least three days to reach any border from Konoha Village, assuming the journey is smooth and no emergencies occur.

If this is the case for the Chunin, what about the Genin?

Especially since Genin had to carry heavy objects and cross-country, the seven-day mission deadline was really cruel. Just look at the "dead dog" next to him...

"I-I-I can't do it anymore."

Finally, it was time to rest. Asuma threw away the box and collapsed to the ground, his tongue still sticking out...

"Are you tired?" Shiratori sat next to Asuma and raised his eyebrows at him, looking very mean.

"What do you think? Don't talk to me. Let me rest for a while."

"Do you need help? Call me 'Brother White Bird' and I'll help you."

"You're dreaming!"

Asuma held out his hand to Shiratori, making a universal friendly gesture.

"Brother Shiratori, please have some water." Yuhikuren handed the bottle of water to Shiratori.

"Brother Shiratori, please have dinner." Ibiki took out a bag of military ration pills.

Seeing Hong being so attentive to Shiratori, Asuma's eyes were blazing with fire, but in the end he could only let out a weak snort.

There's nothing I can do, this guy is too perverted!

Along the way, Shiratori carried his own box on his back, with Hong's box slung over his right shoulder, and his free left hand was still helping Ibiki hold the box on his back...

You are just a living beast! My donkey is not as capable as you!
Asma felt that his three views were overturned. He knew that this guy had strong physical fitness, but he didn't expect it to be so outrageous!

Shiratori took the water bottle with a smile, and then politely declined the military pills made by Ibiki himself.

He had eaten this thing three days ago and felt that his sense of taste had suffered a devastating blow.

He didn't know what shit tasted like, but he thought it wouldn't taste much worse than this...

Shiratori seriously suspected that these Bingliang pills were byproducts that Ibiki accidentally created while researching poisons...

"Om-"

A black shadow flashed past his eyes. It was a special insect cultivated by Aburame Shiwei. It was extremely fast and was specially used for reconnaissance.

Aburame Zhiwei reached out to catch the bug, carefully feeling the simple information it sent.

"Something happened." He walked to Sarutobi Suiten's side and said in a low voice
"what happened?"

"There's something going on five kilometers to the northeast. My bug can only convey some simple information. It tells me... blood. Lots of blood!"

Sarutobi Suiten turned and looked at the Jōnin of the Hyuga clan.

"Byakugan!" Hyuga's jonin opened his Byakugan, but then shook his head and said helplessly: "Sorry, it's too far away, it's beyond the range of my Byakugan."

"Then go have a look."

Sarutobi Suiten didn't hesitate at all. After gathering the team, he rushed to the scene of the accident.
