Chapter 69 Might Guy and Rock Lee
It didn't take long before the three strong guys, Asuma, Shikamaru and Choji, worked together to lift the semi-conscious Rock Lee and sent him to the Curry House of Life.
Rock Lee, who looked extremely depressed, took a bite of curry rice, and his eyes instantly lit up. Then he ate the whole plate of curry rice with a determined look.
Only then did he look around.
"Ah! It's Teacher Asuma! Thank you for saving me!" He bowed 90 degrees very solemnly. Asuma, who was sitting there with a big sword and a cigarette in his mouth, quickly stood up to return the greeting.
Then he looked at Ino, his eyes were puzzled at first, then excited: "You are the Miss Yamanaka who defeated Uchiha Sasuke, right? I heard that you were the first in your class! You are amazing, I heard Neci mention your name, the genius ninja Yamanaka Ino! As long as I defeat you, I will be qualified to challenge Neci, right? Great, I want to challenge you!"
Ino held her forehead, she knew this would happen.
While she was thinking about what words to use to get out of the question, Rock Lee asked Granny Sansho for two more plates of curry rice.
He ate while muttering: "Today's exercise task must be completed today. If I can't do it, I will jump rope three thousand times. Woo! It's delicious! Challenge, um, delicious, delicious, next time, I will definitely challenge you! Mother-in-law, another plate!"
He ate three large plates of curry and rice that was said to be ten times spicier. His face turned red from the spiciness, but he refused to drink water.
He left a muffled sentence, then rushed out of the room and ran away just like he came.
If you don’t know, you might think he was eating and dashing.
Ino looked at the direction he was heading, then looked up at the sun and quickly shouted, "Hey, if you run any further west you'll reach the Kingdom of Wind! Run back! Run back!"
Her voice was a little soft and she was a little far away, so Rock Lee couldn't hear clearly what she said.
The hunk turned around, raised his right arm, gave a thumbs up, and said irrelevantly: "Thank you for your support! I will keep working hard!"
Thank you, sister! Ino was so upset that she watched Rock Lee run all the way to the west. Damn, our Konoha Village is in the east! What are you going to do? You are not going to go there in advance and kick Gaara to death, are you? Rock Lee ran very fast, but he was still exhausted. He ran a short distance before his speed slowed down. Asuma chased him and brought him back to the Curry House of Life.
He needs to rest and replenish his strength now, and the Curry House of Life is obviously not suitable.
We can't just ignore him, but the most taboo thing during a mission is to have complications. Team 10 can't give up their mission to accompany Xiao Li, and doing so will violate a lot of ninja regulations. What should we do? Let's ask someone to take him back to the village.
Asuma knew Might Guy and Rock Lee, the master and apprentice duo, very well. He scratched his head, wrote the situation on a scroll, released a carrier bird, and then stayed in the curry shop waiting for the village's response.
Ino had nothing to do, so she bought two fish from Granny Sansho and continued to practice the entry-level medical ninjutsu which she called "Salted Fish Resuscitation Technique".
The two fish were soon tortured to death by her. They lay down where they fell and it was impossible for them to be revived.
Ino complained a little about the difficulty of medical ninjutsu, then continued practicing.
Granny Sansho mainly makes curry rice, and there are not many live fish in the kitchen, so she asks Shikamaru to go fishing in another river and give the dead fish to Choji as dinner.
Ino, Shikacho and others started to cooperate. Shikamaru went fishing, Ino was responsible for "killing" the fish, and Choji borrowed Sansho's kitchen to cook the fish.
The next morning, Xiao Li's teacher Might Guy arrived.
"It's okay! I'll take this idiot back to the village. Don't worry, nothing will happen." Might Guy showed a smile that he thought was very charming with sparkling teeth. Then he raised his arms to the four people, gave a thumbs up, and carried Xiao Li like a sack. Without wasting even a second, he ran away at lightning speed.
I have to say, they ran really fast. Ino and the others walked from the village to River Country, traveling day and night for two days. Taking into account the time it took the carrier bird to fly back to the village, the code squad to decipher the letter, and finally to pass the message to Might Guy, excluding the time wasted in these links, Mr. Guy may have completed the entire journey in just two or three hours.
He reassured several people, and Asuma felt relieved, and Ino felt even more relieved.
Are you kidding me? Who is Might Guy? He is Emperor Kai! The man Madara-kun calls him the best in taijutsu.
The four said goodbye to Granny Salsop and headed to the Oxalis Mine.
In fact, this mountain is not far from the Curry House of Life and can be seen from inside the house. However, they did not find the person who commissioned the task until the afternoon of the next day. The person was a local official of the Kingdom of Rivers, and the other party did not provide much information about the "Black Hoe Family".
Class 10 arrived at the small village at the foot of the Oxalis Mine in the evening of that day.
Dilapidated; this is the first impression when entering the village. There is a burnt smell in the air, and the villagers are pale and thin, like a group of zombies.
"Be careful, we may have entered the enemy's sight." Asuma said.
Not only Ino and Shikamaru, but even Choji took out his kunai and looked around vigilantly.
Ino closed her eyes and made a "not yet" seal.
“Perception!”
She used her perception ability to search for chakra reactions in the village, and the result was quite surprising. This village seemed very ordinary. Apart from the four of them, there was no one else with chakra reactions.
Ino searched again and said, "Teacher Asuma, something is strange. My perception ability did not see any chakra reaction in the village or around the mine."
Asuma asked, "You think there are no enemy ninja involved in this mission?"
Ino hesitated. She certainly hoped that the task would be as simple as possible. She was also quite confident in her perception ability, but the current situation in the village still made her feel strange.
No enemies at all? This is too fake.
She tried to explain her inference: "No, I think there is a certain chance that an enemy ninja will appear. The opponent's perception ability should be stronger than mine, so there is suppression."
Asuma smiled and said, "Always be vigilant. This answer is correct. Well, I agree with you. This village and the Black Hoe family are not simple. Shikamaru?"
Shikamaru really likes the feeling of playing chess with the enemy. He immediately came up with a countermeasure: "The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. If our whereabouts have been exposed, they definitely don't want us to escape. Then they will lure more Konoha Village ninjas here, and we will withdraw from the village! If the enemy chases us, we will set up an ambush and annihilate them. If not, we will come back and secretly enter the village to investigate."
