Naruto: With maxed-out affection, I am invincible in the ninja world.

After saying that, Minato threw a handful of kunai at Obito and gently instructed him,

"This is the Sword of Endurance and Love. Obito, you must keep it safe for your teacher."

"Yes, Minato-sensei!"

Obito curiously grasped the kunai. At first glance, apart from the four characters on it, there was nothing special about it.

However, since it was Minato-sensei who personally instructed him, Obito carefully put away the kunai.

Unlike Obito, Haneda and Kakashi immediately recognized it as the Flying Thunder God mark.

Although they didn't learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, it didn't stop them from understanding it.

"I never expected Minato (Minato-sensei) to take such good care of Obito."

Haneda and Kakashi thought to themselves at the same time.

At that moment, Shuo Mao's instructions came.

He was the most experienced senior member of the team, and this kind of task was usually assigned to him.

"I'll go to the north, you go to the south, at the water gate."

"As for Haneda and Kakashi, they will each lead their own teams to explore the east and west."

After saying that, Obito immediately started complaining.

"Damn it! I have to listen to that idiot Kakashi again. I really want to be with Haneda!!"

"You think I just want to be with you, you loser?" Kakashi immediately retorted.

"Let's go."

Haneda quickly led his team away, not wanting Obito and Kakashi to start arguing over him again.

But after taking only a few steps, he turned back and said:

"See you later, Obito, Kakashi."

"See you in a bit," Kakashi replied with a smile, then said to Obito and Rin.

"They're gone, the bottom-ranked ones, Haneda and the others are all gone."

…………

Walking towards North Street, Asuma leaned close to Haneda and asked:

"Brother Haneda, how do we find him?"

"Take your time looking, or find the right person to ask for directions."

After saying that, Haneda took off the headband he was wearing and said to Asuma and Kurenai,

"Let's hide our identities for now. The black market doesn't openly welcome ninjas from the five great ninja villages."

"Do we need to use the transformation technique?" Asuma asked again.

"No need. There's a lot of foot traffic here, so it doesn't matter whether we use it or not. Besides, we're not important people. Apart from the village, almost no one knows anything about us."

As Haneda spoke, he led the two of them to search.

Based on the characteristics of the black market, he focused on places like toilets and izakayas (Japanese pubs).

After walking for two and a half minutes, Haneda and his two companions found an izakaya (Japanese pub).

Although it wasn't night yet and there weren't many people in the izakaya, it was still quite noisy.

The seats were about half full.

A drunkard saw three little devils walk in and teased them:

"Little friend, didn't your parents tell you that children can't drink alcohol? Haha."

Haneda merely glanced at the rude drunkard out of the corner of his eye, and the drunkard immediately collapsed to the ground.

Those nearby, seeing this, assumed the drunkard was intoxicated and began to laugh at him.

A young and beautiful woman sat behind the counter in the izakaya, and her smile was very arousing to men.

But Haneda wasn't interested in her.

He walked straight to the high stool in front of the counter and asked in a low voice:

"Do you know anything about the black market, ma'am?"

"Black market? What black market? That's a strange question, kid."

The woman rested one hand on the table, her lipstick-covered lips curving into a captivating smile.

“If you know where it is, tell me. I don’t want to be violent towards a lady,” Haneda said calmly, his expression unchanged.

"From out of town?"

Haneda did not deny it, but waited quietly for the next sentence.

"Alright, sir, judging from your calm and composed demeanor, you must be a ninja."

After the young woman finished speaking in a low voice, she called upstairs.

"Ichiro, we have a guest."

After a while, a middle-aged man in a suit came down from upstairs.

He glanced at Haneda, then followed her gaze to Asuma and Kurenai behind Haneda, who were curiously observing him, and asked with a smile:

"Which customer recommended you?"

"I volunteer to lead the way."

Haneda stood up and used an illusion to make the middle-aged man subconsciously believe in himself.

"Oh, it's Mr. K. Please allow me to show you the way."

The middle-aged man said respectfully.

As he spoke, he gestured towards the entrance of the izakaya.

"Not at the izakaya?"

“Yes, sir. The black market is outside the town,” the middle-aged man said respectfully.

"lead the way."

Then, Haneda flicked his sleeves and led Asuma and Kurenai over.

After passing through the relatively crowded North Street, the number of people gradually decreased.

Buildings like houses are also becoming increasingly distant from us.

Then three figures approached: Obito, Kakashi, and Rin.

And the person leading the way for them was exactly the same as the one leading Haneda's group!

"Everyone's finally here."

"The Third Hokage's son, the White Fang of Konoha's son, and two Uchiha brats."

"Your heads are worth a lot of money, and the girls are quite well-fed."

Ichiro licked his lips, his eyes revealing no trace of his bestial nature.

He took off his suit jacket, revealing bulging muscles that tore the jacket apart.

"Asuma, Kurenai, go back to the village and find Uncle Sakumo and the others."

"Obito, Rin, you too."

Haneda and Kakashi stood in front at the same time and looked at Ichiro, speaking one after the other.

"I, Obito Uchiha, would never abandon my comrades!" Obito took out a kunai and prepared for battle.

"me too."

Asuma took out his chakra blade and pointed it at the red path.

"I'll protect you, Hong. Go back and find Teacher Shuo Mao quickly."

"Rin, don't worry about us!" Obito added after hearing Asuma's words.

At that moment, Ichiro took out a long sword and performed a beautiful sword flourish.

"It's quite touching, but unfortunately I'll make sure none of you escape!"

Ichiro revealed a ferocious smile, and then moved, his speed was incredibly fast, almost leaving only a blur.

In an instant, Ichiro leaped more than ten meters and kicked Rin and Hong, who were running towards the village, unconscious.

This speed astonished everyone present.

"Haneda, can you see clearly?"

Kakashi gripped his short sword tightly. He desperately wanted to save them, but it wasn't a rational decision.

"It was a very difficult task."

Haneda's Sharingan gaze was fixed on Ichiro, but Ichiro seemed to know that he had a three-tomoe Sharingan and did not meet his gaze at all.

"Could it be Swift Escape?!"
