In Konoha, at the start, Hinata was given the Tenseigan.

"Have it!"

"Two days ago, the town of Maple Forest in the Land of Fire was attacked by a group of bandits. Your Class 7 is to go and investigate their whereabouts." — Kawa

092: Evolve, Agumon! My first Pokémon!

Leaving Konoha Village, the group walked slowly along the gravel path in the forest.

It's not that everyone doesn't want to increase their speed and complete the first C-level mission quickly.

It's because the person who issued the mission, Tazna, is an ordinary person.

Moreover, since it's an escort mission, the safety of the people on the mission must be protected.

Therefore, walking slowly and checking for potential dangers in the surrounding area is the top priority.

However, C-rank missions generally do not involve battles between ninjas.

At most, we'll receive some harassment from ordinary people, but it's not a big problem.

Xia Mu, who was familiar with the plot, also knew exactly who the enemies were.

No one was too nervous, but the surrounding environment was full of novelty for Hinata and Kiba Inuzuka, who were leaving the village for the first time.

Although there were only trees all around, there were still many small wild animals in the forest.

Akamaru was even more excited, jumping around and chasing rabbits and chickens.

It must be said that this world has not yet been polluted by large-scale industrial pollution, and there are so many wild animals in the forest.

"By the way, Natsuki-kun, does Akamaru really have great potential?"

Looking at Akamaru walking ahead and making a ruckus, Kiba Inuzuka recalled Natsuki's evaluation of Akamaru.

I used to think that Xia Mu's occasional strange remarks were just a joke.

However, ever since he truly saw at a glance that Fatty Orange was corrupted by evil forces and would mutate into a magical beast.

Kiba Inuzuka felt that maybe, perhaps, possibly Natsuki's chuunibyou-ish remarks all along were actually true?

Does that mean my Akamaru truly possesses immense potential?

"Yes."

Xia Mu nodded casually.

"That's fantastic! So how do I unlock its potential?"

Kiba Inuzuka was delighted to receive a positive answer and couldn't wait to make Akamaru stronger.

After all, Akamaru is part of his strength, and they have already mastered the Fang-Fang combination technique, but they are not yet very proficient at it.

“Woof woof!!!”

Just then, Akamaru, who was running ahead, barked loudly at the dense bushes on his right.

A huge commotion came from inside.

A moment later, a small lizard darted out first, followed by a wild boar weighing at least 300 pounds charging out.

The fangs, sharp as blades, grazed the little lizard, carving two deep furrows in the ground.

"hiss!"

The little lizard dodged left and right in terror.

"It's a Dragon Tooth Ironback Boar!"

Xia Mu's eyes narrowed, and he blurted out.

"what?"

These words made Kurenai and the others, who had initially breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that it was just an ordinary wild boar, tense up again.

Such a striking name, could it be Warcraft again?

After all, Xia Mu has a criminal record, and it seems that his eyes can really detect things that ordinary people cannot see. He even saw through an ordinary orange cat that had absorbed evil power and was always on the verge of turning into a monster.

"Hinata, Kiba Inuzuka, protect Mr. Tazuna."

Kurenai shouted, her hands already forming hand seals, preparing to unleash a ninjutsu.

"Hi!"

Hinata responded loudly, and Akamaru darted back to Kiba Inuzuka's side, his eyes fixed on the boar with a sharp gaze.

"Uh, isn't that just a regular wild boar?"

Tazna said he couldn't understand the team's tactics, although he admired their fighting skills.

But what about the Dragon Fang Iron-Backed Boar? Does such a thing even exist in the ninja world?

I strongly suspect that you are exaggerating and trying to extort money from me.

"Um... I've already given the mission reward to Konoha, so you can't raise the price halfway through."

Tazna, who was short of money, whispered a reminder.

"Xia Mu, come with me..."

Ignoring the ordinary old man, Kurenai Yuhi's eyes were serious, but before she could finish speaking, Natsuki had already leaped away.

"How dare a mere Dragon Tooth Ironback Boar act so arrogantly in front of me, the Lord of Dimensions?"

"He deserves death!"

Xia Mu's right hand shot out like lightning, grabbing at something in mid-air.

With a wave of its hand, the 300-pound wild boar defied gravity and soared into the sky.

"Oh my gosh~~"

A loud squeal rang out as the wild boar thrashed about, its limbs flailing wildly, watching in terror as it was launched into the sky.

"Ninja Art: Super Invincible Thunderbolt Fireball!"

The next moment, a huge fireball roared away and exploded with a loud bang in the distant sky.

It turned half the sky red.

"What did you say?"

Xia Mu slowly floated back to Tazuna's side. Turning her head, she asked, a red light seemingly flashing in her right eye.

"No, didn't say anything?"

"Old man, I... I still have a little bit of savings."

Tazna swallowed hard, his heart pounding.

Is this what a ninja is like?

too strong.

No, I've seen other ninjas before, how could they be this strong?

A moment later, a bonfire was lit beside a stream.

A simple grill was set up on top.

The aroma of meat wafts from the grill.

It was that 300-pound wild boar.

"Um... Natsuki-kun, is this really a Dragon Fang Ironback Boar?"

"Why does it taste just like regular wild boar?"

Kiba Inuzuka carefully gnawed on a piece of back meat. It wasn't tough. Why was it called Iron Back?

"He is not fully awakened yet..."

Natsuki quickly devoured the entire pig's trotter, then casually made up an excuse to get rid of the curious Inuzuka Kiba.

"Who are you trying to fool? This is just an ordinary wild boar."

Kurenai couldn't stand it anymore and went up to her younger brother, tapping him on the head.

I almost thought it was a newly appeared monster myself.

As it turns out, the taste is clearly that of ordinary wild boar.

Hmm, but my brother's cooking is amazing, it smells so good.

Didn't you see Hinata was so hungry she couldn't even speak?

Good grief, you two ate most of it.

What was originally thought to be a generous 300-pound wild boar seems to be a bit too much to share?

"hiss!!!"

Just then, a small lizard scurried to Xia Mu's side and carefully licked the broken bones that Xia Mu had thrown away.

"Hey, it's the little lizard that was just chased by the wild boar."

Kiba Inuzuka has a strong ability to distinguish animals, except for monsters, of course!
