"Hahaha, Tobirama, actually, you should be a more qualified Hokage than me!"
Hashirama patted Tobirama's junior and laughed loudly.
Tobirama smiled slightly: "Who knows? After all, I've never been Hokage."
The two exchanged a smile and, with perfect understanding, resumed working on the tasks that had been interrupted earlier due to their efforts to obtain wind from the clouds.
All matters, big and small, in Konoha had to be reported to the Hokage. If it weren't for Tobirama's help, Hashirama might have died suddenly in his office.
Even if there were twice as many documents to process, Hashirama would never complain, because this was the village he loved.
Chapter 29 The first mission
The next morning, after washing up, Tofu packed his things and set off for the place he had arranged to meet with Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Since he was going out on a mission, wearing a robe would be inconvenient, so Toru changed into the combat uniform of the village's ninjas.
It's quite rare that his family actually has a ninja combat suit that's suitable for his age.
Upon arriving at the meeting point, Qu Feng was surprised to find that he was the last one, even though he thought he had arrived much earlier.
Unexpectedly, these people were here even earlier than him.
Among this group of people, Qu Feng also spotted a very familiar figure.
"Hey, let's get the wind!"
Zhili waved happily, gesturing for Qufeng to hurry up and take a few steps.
"Zhili? What brings you here too?"
Torifu was puzzled by this, thinking that Hiruzen Sarutobi shouldn't have agreed to it.
Zhili clenched her little fists and threatened, "My brother agreed to let me come, and no one else has any objections, so you shouldn't have any either, right?"
Faced with Chiri's 'threat', Torika pretended to be scared and said repeatedly, "No, no, with Chiri here, we'll definitely complete the mission easily this time."
Jing couldn't stand it any longer, so she reached out and ruffled Zhili's hair, making it all messy.
"Remember, Zhili! This time you must stick close to me. I don't expect you to kill the bandits, just make sure you don't get killed yourself."
Zhili was not angry or retorted to his brother's distrust; he simply said that he would behave.
Qu Feng raised an eyebrow; Zhi Li's condition was very abnormal.
Actually, Chiri didn't want to be so humble, but who knows how much she begged and pleaded last night to get her brother to bring her along.
He used every means imaginable, from threats to bribes, before finally getting Uchiha Kagami to reluctantly agree.
Tofu had actually anticipated this, and a competitive girl like Chiri would definitely not miss this opportunity.
The main reason Hiruzen agreed to Chiri's unreasonable request was because of Uchiha Kagami's guarantee that he would be solely responsible for Chiri's safety during the mission.
"Alright, now that everyone's here, let's set off!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi said with great interest, after all, this was their graduation exam! If it weren't for the fact that they had used up a lot of chakra yesterday...
He's probably already in the bandits' den!
Everyone checked their item bags and found that they had enough of various shuriken, kunai, explosive tags, and the like.
The ration pills are enough for the round trip.
With everything ready, the gates of Konoha Village slowly opened, and Torifu and Jiri officially embarked on their mission for the first time.
In fact, they were born in a relatively peaceful period. Before the village was built, six-year-old children were already going to the battlefield to fight the enemy.
In those days, it was considered a long life for a ninja to live to thirty. How tragic.
The group walked along the main road, so their pace was quite fast. It's worth mentioning that since awakening the system, Qu Feng has never had any free time to play in that old forest again.
There are various kinds of training every day.
Hiruzen Sarutobi slowed down and said to the group, "Everyone, stand closer and I'll tell you the specific information. It was obtained by my father."
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately did as instructed. Hiruzen's father, Sarutobi Sasuke, was a highly skilled ninja in the village and also the head of the Sarutobi clan.
He led the Sarutobi clan to join Konoha! He enjoys extremely high prestige in the village.
As for the information Hiruzen mentioned, it probably came from some bounty organization or the black market.
These intelligence brokers wish there were wars every day so they could make a fortune.
"Of those five samurai, the leader is comparable to a top-tier ninja in the village, while the rest are nothing to fear."
The group nodded in understanding. Hiruzen and his companions had dealt with many samurai before, but most of them were just good-for-nothings.
Completely lacking the demeanor of a samurai, they were utterly vulnerable.
"Those two rogue ninja from Sunagakure, one skilled in Fire Release and the other in Wind Release, are twin brothers and work together very well."
"He escaped from the pursuit of the Sand Village and fled to the Land of Fire, where he became a mountain king."
"Their combined wind and fire attack is extremely powerful; we must be extra careful and separate them to defeat them!"
"learn!"
The intelligence was brief, but it was enough to give everyone an idea of the enemy's strength.
To avoid carelessness that could lead to irreversible consequences.

Jing thought for a moment and said, "The main purpose of the combined wind and fire attack is to enhance the power of fire. If there is a strong enough water jutsu to suppress them, they are not to be feared."
"Koharu, you're skilled in Water Release, can you successfully suppress her?" Danzo asked from the side.
Koharu Utatane shook her head uncertainly: "It's impossible to judge without a fight, but reducing the power of their ninjutsu is something we can do."
During a mission, the worst thing you can do is boast or fail to recognize your own capabilities.
Taking on important tasks rashly in team operations and ultimately failing can be a fatal crisis for the entire team!
“I am also skilled in Water Release techniques. My sister Koharu and I should be able to use them,” Toruka said calmly from the side.
Hiruzen smiled and said, "Little Torifu! I didn't expect you to be skilled in Water Release?"
"To be precise, he is proficient in all five escape techniques." Although this sounded like boasting, no one scoffed at the idea of taking the wind.
Since everyone has witnessed the power of the Wind Chaser firsthand, they naturally believe it.
In their last match against Hiruzen, they only witnessed a portion of Crystal Release ninjutsu, so they had no idea of the true strength of the Wind-Taming Technique.
To be honest, I still only have a superficial understanding.
But a qualified ninja should be like Torifu, never letting anyone know their true strength!
Xiaochun smiled and said, "If we can't defeat them separately, then I and Qufeng will use Water Release to deal with them."
Everyone nodded. Although the battle plan was not yet fully developed, it should be sufficient to complete the mission.
After that, everyone stopped chatting and focused on getting on their way.
Zhili, on the other hand, was sulking as she ran, somewhat angry at the way everyone had ignored her earlier.
But there was nothing I could do; I had stubbornly followed along. If I could join the team through my abilities, like Qu Feng did, I would probably be recognized.
It's a pity that she, a genius of the Uchiha clan, could only resort to throwing tantrums and acting like a spoiled child.
The gap between her and Qu Feng is indeed huge.
'If I were to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, perhaps my strength could catch up with Torifu's?'
Zhili thought to herself, but how difficult it is to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan. Even her brother hasn't awakened it yet, so how could she possibly awaken it before him?
'Regardless, let's do our best to demonstrate our abilities in this mission.'
Although Chiri is relatively humble, pride is an attribute that flows in the blood of the Uchiha clan.
Jing turned to look at her sulking younger sister and couldn't help but smile faintly.
"Go for it, Chiri! Let me see how far you can go."
Chapter 30 The Old Man's Prayer
As one of the five great nations of the ninja world, the Land of Fire is rich in resources and its territory is naturally vast.
The group traveled continuously for a day, but had only covered half the distance. To reach the border of the Land of Fire, they still had at least another day's journey to go.
The day's journey had left everyone exhausted, and the only food they had to eat was some extremely unpalatable soldier's rations.
"According to the map, there is a small village ahead of us. We can go there and rest for a while."
Hiruzen began by saying, "Everyone set off this morning, and it's been a whole day now. It's time to rest."
The objective of this mission is not dynamic, so there's no need to rush.
"That's great, we don't have to sleep in the wild anymore." Xiaochun's face was filled with a happy smile.
Although ninjas need to adapt to survive in various environments, for girls, sleeping outdoors all night can make their skin dry and brittle.
Right now, it would be great to have a village to stay in, and maybe even be able to take a hot bath.
Not only Xiaochun, but the others also wanted to rest in the village.
"Let's get to the village before sunset."
They quickened their pace; if they didn't reach the village before dark, they would have to camp in the wild.
By this time, Chiri was already struggling and had to rest and recuperate every now and then before she could continue walking.
But Tōfū acted as if nothing was wrong, running or walking leisurely, which made Zhīlì increasingly envious.
She even had the urge to dissect Qu Feng, and she even doubted whether Qu Feng was human or not, how could he be so relaxed all day?
"Take the wind, aren't you tired?" Zhili said softly from the back of the mirror.
"It's alright, I'm still a little tired, but it's bearable."
Upon hearing this, Jing also glanced at Qu Feng. This young man's physical abilities were already comparable to Hiruzen's.
After hearing this, Zhili didn't ask any more questions. She leaned against the back of the mirror and fell fast asleep. She had reached her limit.
Fortunately, Hiruzen and his group arrived at the village before nightfall.
