Chapter 467 The three super gods!
Speaking of which, although it was nominally Shiro's team that carried out the mission, in reality, the real operators were the three of them. Shiro was only responsible for coming out to help when in danger, and he only ensured that they would not die. As for the mission, success or failure depended on them.
This can be said to be the first mission that Sanxiao has carried out independently. It is a relatively cautious B-level mission, investigating the missing population of a village. There will be battles, but the intensity is not high.
According to the intelligence department's analysis, the highest level is no higher than Chunin. This kind of opponent is completely within the capabilities of Shisui and his team. The only difficulty is how to find these people. (Mission classification comment)
However, Shisui Souji is different from Shiro. They are both real academic masters and have mastered anti-detection skills.
At this time, they were leaning against a tree, eating dry food and resting, while looking at the mission scroll and analyzing the intelligence of this mission.
Shiro nodded in satisfaction at this. Although he didn't do much of these things back then, it didn't prevent him from agreeing with the actions of Shisui and the others. After all, he had Lu Ming with him back then, so he didn't have to use his brain at all and could just take action.
He himself had no intention of reading it. For this mission, Silang had already obtained detailed information from Azu and had almost figured out the details of this mission.
The clues are quite deep, it depends on whether these three little guys can find them.
After a while, Sanxiao rested, tidied himself up, and continued on his journey.
The location of this mission is a little closer to the border of the Iron Country. It is one of the few places that has not been affected by the war, but this does not mean that it is very peaceful here.
On the contrary, this kind of place is still a bit chaotic at this time. There are many bandits and ninjas who fled here for refuge during the war. Therefore, even now that the main battlefield has ended, there are still frequent chaos here.
This missing person incident is just a small one.
The three of them collected intelligence while traveling, and finally arrived at the small town where the mission was issued a week later.
The first thing they did when they arrived in the town was to put on their forehead protectors and go to the city lord's mansion, where the client of this mission was. Obviously, the frequent disappearances of people had seriously affected the order and life of the small town.
As the three of them approached the City Lord's Mansion, they looked at the pedestrians on the road. It was obvious that the pedestrians all had deep melancholy on their faces. Obviously, the problem had not been resolved for a long time, which made them feel insecure.
The three of them also noticed that some people in the city had wandering eyes, and the way they walked and the position of their hands did not seem like the reactions of ordinary people.
This should also be one of the reasons why the city lord commissioned Konoha.
After a while, the three of them arrived at the City Lord's Mansion smoothly. There were no ignorant guys on the road. Even after entering the City Lord's Mansion, everyone looked very respectful when they saw them. After all, the three of them had Konoha forehead protectors tied on their heads.
Only a fool would mess with them.
Unfortunately, this scene did not affect those who had other thoughts about this small town. They just restrained themselves a little. Once the three little ones did not show the corresponding strength.
In the black market, the heads of Konoha ninjas can be exchanged for a lot of money.
This made Shisui sigh secretly. Age was a disadvantage after all. He now only hoped that these people would not interfere with their mission, otherwise the final assessment of the mission would be very low.
"Are you the ninjas commissioned this time?" After the three entered the City Lord's Mansion, they saw the City Lord who had been waiting there for a long time after taking a few steps.
However, at this time, the age of the three became a burden to them. Just like Naruto and others in the original work, when the city lord saw the three, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
After all, the three of them are too young, and they are not very good at talking but not very reliable. This is not just what Shiro said in his previous life, but due to Konoha's current huge reputation, the city lord did not show it too obviously.
Of course, as outstanding ninjas, this naturally did not escape Sanxiao's eyes, but they also knew that this was their weakness, so they didn't care much. They responded casually and asked the city lord to bring more detailed information.
Finish work early and go home early.
"Why don't you take a break first? It's been such a long journey, and you must be tired. How about we wait and see tomorrow?"
"Thank you for your kindness, City Lord. However, this matter has dragged on for a long time. The sooner it is dealt with, the better. So, that's it. I'm sorry to bother you, City Lord."
After saying that, Shisui took Erxiao and stood there, pretending to wait while carefully looking at the guards in the palace.
Generally speaking, such large-scale population disappearances may often have unclear relationships with the official internal affairs. Therefore, this mission, including the city lord who issued the mission, is suspected of this.
Of course, the worst case scenario is that the city lord is behind this. This guy is the one who issued the task, and according to regulations they cannot attack him, but the task will fail.
Although there is a solution, it is very troublesome anyway, and Shisui really doesn't want that to happen.
On this side, the city lord saw Sanxiao's firm attitude and could only sigh, turned around and said something, and sent someone to get more detailed information.
"Three ninja masters, this is all the information we know. More than a dozen people have disappeared in the past few days, and most of them are children. Sigh~"
"Don't worry, City Lord, we will resolve this matter as soon as possible. Have the venues where the children were last active before they disappeared recently been preserved?" Shisui asked while flipping through the information.
Although the intelligence contained a relatively detailed analysis of those locations, Shisui still wanted to go and see them in person. Currently, this information could only provide a rough estimate.
The people from the City Lord's Mansion had already explored that place. Although they failed, they did get some information about the combat power. However, with that level of combat power, it could not be rated as B level at all.
Therefore, there must be some clues that have not been discovered.
Fortunately, the city lord was not a fool. Not only did he immediately entrust Konoha with the task after realizing that he could not solve the problem himself, he also preserved the crime scene as much as possible.
Obviously, he also knew that it was impossible for these guys he supported to be without mistakes, especially after the mission rating of Konoha came out, he became more determined in his idea.
As a city lord, although I cannot say that I know some things by heart, I still have some knowledge about them.
Just like how he addressed Sanxiao, it was a polite honorific at first, but after discovering the family crest on Shisui's body, he immediately changed his tone and started calling him "sir".
On this side, Shisui and the other two, led by the servants of the City Lord's Mansion, have arrived at the nearest crime scene.
After dismissing the servants, the three began to look for clues in their own ways.
But what's interesting is that both Shisui and Souji rely on their own senses to search, the difference is that Shisui has the Sharingan, which allows him to see more subtle things.
However, A Yue's painting style is different from the other two. A Yue just puts his hand lightly on the corresponding object, then starts analysis, and draws a few runes from time to time to get information.
The bigger problem is that this is a small yard with not much stuff in it. There is a slightly larger tree in the middle of the yard, and around the tree are several relatively smooth stones.
Apart from these, there are only some processed traces left, which are consistent with the information provided by the City Lord's Mansion, so the other party's new location cannot be found at present.
These are the common points among the three people when they summarized the intelligence. Among them, Souji and Shisui are basically the same, but the more special one is Ayue. After collecting basic intelligence through analysis.
A Yue used some special magic to collect deeper information, such as chakra aura!
This is a major discovery for the mission. If A Yue had not discovered this, they should have gone to the place that the City Lord's Mansion had explored before and tried again.
Doing so will inevitably alert the enemy and cause their real base to shrink completely.
Based on the currently available intelligence, it can be analyzed that the other party has at least two bases. One is the one that was previously broken into the City Lord's Mansion, where all the prisoners were adults.
Although it seems that they were abducted to do hard labor, this does not make sense at all.
Because the proportions are so different, according to current statistics, children account for the majority of the missing people, and children are obviously not good candidates for laborers.
So it is best not to alert the enemy if you can avoid doing so.
The more troublesome thing at the moment is that A Yue senses a lot of chakra auras, many of which are from the City Lord's Mansion, so they need to be carefully distinguished.
Fortunately, the workload was not very large. In just one night, A Yue completed the entire process from differentiation to positioning!
This was something Shiro had never expected. He had thought that the three of them should take it one by one, sneak into the first point to obtain intelligence, then follow the clues to catch the big boss, and finally start the battle.
Who knew that A Yue could locate the boss's position directly as soon as he arrived, and he didn't remember what kind of magic he gave A Yue. Well, this may be normal.
Shilang suddenly remembered that in addition to teaching Ah Yue some small magic tricks he had developed, he also gave her many magic scrolls, so he had no idea how many magic tricks Ah Yue knew now.
'Should I take on another disciple? This fighting style doesn't suit my style.' Looking at Yue in the room preparing magic for tomorrow's battle, Shiro thought.
The next day, A Yue and the others just talked to the city lord alone, and then set off quietly. There was also A Yue's replacement doll in the residence as a cover. Unless the city lord was a traitor, the other party would never know about this action.
But if the city lord is a traitor or the mastermind behind the incident, then the situation will be beyond their control and they can just retreat.
Fortunately, the worst situation did not happen. When A Yue and others arrived at the two locations, everything was normal.
Based on the intelligence from the City Lord's Mansion and the intelligence gathered by A Yue's bird familiar, they made a rough plan.
The first location was solved by the living puppet Xiaoyu and many Dragon Tooth Soldiers. The strongest ones there were only a few ninjas, and the rest were all warriors who were stronger than ordinary people.
Not to mention Xiaoyu, even if there were only the Dragon Tooth Soldiers, they could easily take over that place.
The three small ones mainly attacked the second base, which was also the most important place for the opponent, where the combat power was relatively strong.
One Chunin, five Genin, and a dozen ninja apprentices.
The lineup may seem ordinary, but these levels are roughly divided by A Yue according to the amount of chakra, so the gap with the actual combat power is huge. It can only be said that those with chakra are more threatening.
They would be more cautious with these people, Genin and Chunin, treating them all as Chunin, and ninja apprentices as Genin.
So, after thinking about it all night, they decided to use assassination tactics!
Well, this was actually what Shiro thought that night. In fact, this strategic plan was decided the moment they saw the opponent's strength, and after that they were just checking for shortcomings and filling them in.
Soon, the battle is about to begin!
