Arrive at the mission lobby.

Upon hearing that Class 7 wanted to take on a Class C mission, the Third Hokage hadn't said anything when he was met with strong opposition from Iruka-sensei.

"You bunch of idiots, you're just beginners, yet you dare to take on C-rank missions. You should reflect on your actions."

Iruka, who had just started his shift, reprimanded the three men with concern.

Upon hearing this, Naruto's eyes lit up instantly; his chance had come!

He chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, we're still newbies. Wouldn't it be better to just stay in the village and do D-rank missions? How dare you take on C-rank missions!"

That's right!

Naruto Uzumaki absolutely loves the village!

All I want in this life is to do simple D-rank missions during the day and travel around the ninja world at night.

What power bank, what tool?

That's absolutely terrifying.

This behavior displeased Sakura: "Hey, Naruto!"

She tugged at Naruto's sleeve, her eyes conveying a clear message:

'Have you forgotten the vote?'

Naruto grimaced in exasperation, but Sasuke delivered the fatal blow.

"Hey, Naruto, didn't you want to be Hokage? You can't become Hokage by only doing low-level missions."

Naruto suddenly realized something.

Yeah, I've been so busy with Sasuke these past few days that I almost forgot about this.

Naruto Uzumaki still has to become Hokage.

"Grandpa Hokage, please find us some C-rank missions. We're all grown up now, not fresh out of school. We're capable of handling C-rank missions."

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and glanced at him.

Naruto is still the same mischievous Naruto.

However, they have indeed grown up.

Iruka was equally pleased. Naruto had graduated almost half a month ago. Although it had been a short time, the three of them seemed to have really grown.

"In that case, I will send you to protect someone."

The third generation leader issued the mission: "Look, the client has arrived."

The three turned their heads and saw someone push the door open and come in.

The man who came was a middle-aged man with a kind face, slightly overweight, with a beer belly, wearing glasses, and with a face that looked like he had been bullied.

"Are you guys supposed to protect me? Why are you all just kids?"

Sure enough, his tone made you want to punch him.

On the other side, Tazuna saw that the three kids were the ones who had accepted his mission, and he felt that Konoha did not take him seriously.

He was facing assassination by the villain Kado; how could three brats possibly complete the mission?

But the Land of Waves is too poor, and they are too poor to afford higher-rank B-level missions, so this is the only option.

Having ninjas is better than not having any.

Moreover, it's just a rumor that Gato wants to kill him; that guy is incredibly stingy and wouldn't necessarily spend money to hire ninjas to kill him.

For ordinary people, these kids should be fine.

"I am the famous bridge builder Tazner. During the time I am back in the country to complete the bridge construction, you must do everything you can to protect me!"

"During the time it took to build the bridge?"

Sasuke's eyes lit up after the keyword was triggered. "It'll definitely take quite a while, right?"

“It will take at least three more weeks to complete the bridge,” Dazner replied.

Three weeks!

"Great!" Sasuke sighed inwardly. He had three whole weeks to make the most of this opportunity.

The scene shifts to the entrance of Konoha.

"Kakashi-sensei, this gate looks a bit different," Naruto asked, touching the gate of Konoha with a puzzled expression.

"Take a look," Kakashi explained.

"This is the first Hokage's Wood Release gate; it's extremely sturdy."

"Oh? Was the First Hokage's Wood Release a special bloodline limit? How come I haven't seen anyone else use it?"

"Also, is this Wood Release created by fusing Water and Earth chakra? Can't an individual fuse these two awakened Wood Releases?" Naruto asked sincerely.

"Wood Release is a unique bloodline limit; as for its synthesis..."

Speaking of Wood Release, Kakashi thought of the Wood Release ninja he had known since childhood, a ninja with a less-than-pleasant past.

He skipped over that part of history and encouraged him, "Perhaps. Naruto, you've already mastered both earth and water attributes. You could try fusing them; you might just succeed."

That's what he said, but Kakashi never thought Naruto could succeed.

Even if Naruto is a genius, bloodline limits are not that simple.

can.

Naruto has achieved his goal.

See, even Kakashi-sensei said so.

If he pulls out Wood Release next, it wouldn't be surprising.

Chapter 40 Thanks to my buddy for the big knife

Naruto hadn't gone far when he noticed something was wrong.

I glanced at the trees along the roadside out of the corner of my eye.

Two people came from afar and hid in the branches of a nearby tree.

I initially thought they were ninjas returning to the village, but now it's clear they aren't.

Unlike the ninjas in the village, these two chakras were completely unfamiliar and filled with rampant malice.

They are definitely enemies.

Standing so close, they can't possibly be naive enough to think that none of them have any sensory ninjas, can they?

You really underestimate me, Naruto.

But who are they targeting?

Naruto quickly scanned the team members with his eyes.

Kakashi: Maybe.

Kakashi-sensei has experienced war and carried out missions for many years, so it's very likely that he has accumulated some enemies.

Tazuna: It's also possible that, as the client, my mission is to protect him.

But are the enemies ninjas?

This kind of mission should be at least level B, right?

Sakura and Sasuke: Eliminated immediately.

Wait, there's also myself.

I am no different from Sasuke and Sakura.

However, it's not surprising that the parents, whom he has never met, seem to have many enemies.

Fortunately, Naruto Uzumaki is already invincible!

But how did these two people recognize him?

Never mind, let's just do it!

"You little thief, you still dare to look? I'll gouge your eyes out!"

With a shout, Naruto swiftly threw out six shuriken.

Whoosh whoosh~~~

The six shuriken, enhanced by wind-style chakra, moved at supersonic speeds.

The two people in the tree had no time to react before they were hit!

"what!"

With a pitiful scream, the two fell from the tree and landed heavily on the ground.

Naruto's exclamation alerted everyone to something amiss.

Kakashi immediately stepped forward, shielding the three children and the client behind him, and then turned back to ask for information.

"Naruto, what's going on?"

"Kakashi-sensei, there are two people staring at us with malice, looking like they want to attack us. Now I have every reason to suspect that these two people are here to get revenge on me!" Naruto nodded. That's right, that's exactly it. It's definitely not because I was itching to fight that I attacked them.

you?

For a moment, Kakashi didn't know where to begin his rant.

You, Naruto, have only left the village once. Where would you have any enemies?

He told everyone to stay put and went ahead alone to check on the situation.

Lying on the withered yellow leaves are two ninjas wearing Kirigakure headbands, who appear to be rogue ninjas judging from the headbands.
