Before afternoon, the three returned with numerous shadow clones carrying the scrolls indicating mission completion, and then dispersed.
Before long, Hiruzen Sarutobi's shadow clone looked at the completed D-rank mission and felt somewhat helpless.
However, when Sasuke Uchiha waved his hand and posted a long-term mission called "Opening Wasteland" on the Hokage Building, seeing that the mission commission was already almost a sixth of Asuma's, Hiruzen Sarutobi almost couldn't resist reaching out his sinful hand again.
After all these years, the Konoha elders have made a fortune by bullying orphans, but they never expected that this kid's family had so many.
However, after thinking about Itachi Uchiha who was still outside the village, and looking at Rin Senju who should have already reached the Kage level, Hiruzen Sarutobi silently gave up the idea. After all, the Sarutobi clan was already too big, and if it grew any bigger, the other ninja clans would become dissatisfied.
However, before Hiruzen Sarutobi's shadow clone could finish organizing the mission scrolls, Naruto Uzumaki stepped forward again and said casually.
"Grandpa, um, we've met the requirements for our D-rank mission, so can we leave the village to do a C-rank mission now?"
Listening to those somewhat cheesy words, and seeing the hand seals that seemed to be forming a transformation technique, and looking at the bustling mission hall, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who felt he couldn't ruin his reputation in his later years, silently took out a C-rank mission to clear out bandits after much deliberation.
"This is a C-rank mission to clear out bandits. Of course, you may also encounter ninjas. Along the way, you must follow the instructions of your team leader. The team leader also has the right to grade your actions, and this will determine whether you can become a Chunin. Do you understand?"
"Okay, I understand."
The three responded in unison. Lin Nian took the mission scroll, checked the location, and found that it was only a little over a day's journey from Konoha. They then set off for the outskirts of the village on their Xianyu.
"No, it's already afternoon. Shouldn't we be doing a C-rank mission tomorrow morning? You guys aren't prepared at all!"
Seeing his three future students about to do something foolish, the seemingly indifferent teacher, who considered himself a fairly responsible one, also took on the duties of the supervising teacher.
However, when he discovered that Lin Nian, Naruto Uzumaki, and Sasuke Uchiha were all carrying several scrolls containing food, clothing, and ninja tools, Xianyu silently shed tears of envy.
His father was the legendary White Fang of Konoha, and his teacher was the Yellow Flash who shone brightly in the Third Shinobi World War, so why didn't he receive the same treatment from a young age?
In response, Tian Tian, who was in charge of the logistics of the 12 Little Strong, breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at the large pile of supplies that needed to be sealed into the sealing scroll.
"Fortunately, there aren't many supplies this time, so it will only take a few minutes to get them ready."
Using the map in the quest scroll to pinpoint the location, and gathering information and vision through the blue silver grass that had spread there, they discovered that a group of bandits had indeed gathered on a hilltop not far from the three villages named Jingxia Village, Jingshang Village, and Jingli Village.
Lin Nian also opened his domain and activated Wind Wrapping. He gave each of them two flying knives to ride on, and then he led the four of them on a high-speed journey.
As for why electrical stimulation is not used?
Well, let's just say that Xianyu's body is too weak. Lin Nian is a little worried that before they even reach their destination, Xianyu will be electrocuted by the lightning emanating from his own body.
The ability to fly, coupled with the powerful wind propulsion, meant that a journey that would normally take at least a day was completed in less than three hours, bringing them directly to the foot of the small mountain.
He threw the salted fish, which had never flown like this before, on the ground and let it vomit because of its physical discomfort.
After Sasuke Uchiha, who was supposed to be his direct disciple in the original story, went to take care of him, Lin Nian also took the mission scrolls and went to the three villages that had issued the missions to check the situation. After all, it would be a huge mistake to kill the wrong person.
After all, he was different from ordinary ninjas. The system had set a strict rule for him: to indiscriminately slaughter intelligent beings on a large scale would truly incur divine retribution.
They created two shadow clones, each heading to a village. After sneaking into the village chief's house and confirming the situation amidst the nearly terrified expressions of the three old men, they found themselves in the shadows.
The three, now reunited, headed straight for the mountaintop and began their open infiltration.
Behind Naruto Uzumaki, the Vajra Chains stretched to the heavens and the earth, shattering rocks with every move he made, provoking the bandits who were perhaps nobles from Konoha and the Land of Fire, who were specifically forced out to draw blood from the new ninja.
Lightning flashed around Uchiha Sasuke's body, and in the silent thunder, it was as if Susanoo had descended upon the world, intimidating the bandits.
Lin Nian, who went specifically to raid the bandits' rear, also demonstrated with his actions what it means to take every step as a lotus flower blooming with every thought.
Wherever he went, no matter what it was like before, it was now covered in green grass and blooming flowers. But... the vines that seemed to stretch to the sky and connect to the earth, like a mountain god wielding his whip and venting his anger, terrified the bandits who had fled there, causing them to run back in even more disheveled disarray.
Ultimately, the middle-aged man who led this band of bandits, possessing chakra and fighting strength roughly equivalent to a genin, was instantly killed by Uchiha Sasuke with a single strike.
Since learning the Five Thunder Orthodox Method, Lin Nian's already extraordinary eyes underwent a slight change, allowing him to see blood energy, evil spirits, and malevolent ghosts in the dark. He then decisively and cleanly killed several bandits who had real lives on their hands.
The remaining ordinary people who were dragged up the mountain were all subdued by Naruto's talk-no-jutsu, which may or may not have been entirely genuine.
