"I'm going to be a super elite ninja who will one day become Hokage!" Naruto shouted boisterously in front of the gates of Konoha.
This marked the official start of the Land of Waves arc...
"A C-rank mission is definitely a normal escort mission where you won't encounter ninjas." Kakashi solemnly set a flag, completely ignoring Tazuna's displeased expression.
Because ordinary people were present, Team 7 walked quietly through the forest, not increasing their pace.
In the quiet forest, according to the plot, this was where the Misty Ghost Brothers would meet their end. But...
"Help! Help!"
The cry for help of a young girl suddenly echoed through the forest. Faced with this situation, even though Tazuna was reluctant, the righteous Team 7 had to investigate.
Pushing aside the foliage, a cute girl was being assaulted by bandits. Her three-year-old brother was also held by a bandit, his life hanging by a thread!
Seeing this, Kakashi charged forward with almost no hesitation, rescuing the girl.
Guys who like reading Icha Icha Paradise must prioritize saving damsels in distress...
"Don't come any closer, or I'll strangle this brat!"
The bandit's companion fiercely gripped the three-year-old child, warily looking around: "Why are you ninjas meddling in other people's business?"
At this moment, the three-year-old child suddenly opened his mouth wide and bit down hard on the bandit's hand...
"Ouch! It hurts so much!"
The bandit involuntarily let go. The next second, Sasuke's kunai had already pierced his throat.
"Little brother Aoi!"
Seeing her brother rescued, the beautiful girl could no longer control herself and rushed forward, hugging Aoi: "I'll never let you go again."
"So touching!"
Sakura and Naruto's eyes were already filled with tears...
Kakashi, on the other hand, stared blankly with his dead fish eyes: "What's going on here? Why were these bandits chasing you?"
"My name is Aoba, and this is my younger brother, Aoi."
Haku sadly wiped his tears with his sleeve: "Our family originally lived in the Land of Fire, but because we encountered bandits, our parents died. Only my brother and I are left to depend on each other."
"Wuwuwu…"
Sakura and Naruto were already crying. Idiots are so easily moved.
"What are you planning to do next?" Kakashi's dead fish eyes remained unperturbed.
"Our parents told us to go to our uncle in the Land of Waves before they died. I was planning to take my brother there, but we were discovered by these bandits."
Haku sobbed tragically: "If we hadn't met you, we probably would have…"
Sakura blurted out almost instinctively: "We're also going to the Land of Waves, why don't you come with us!"
Hearing this, Kakashi frowned. Ninja missions shouldn't involve unnecessary detours, let alone revealing the mission location.
However, this brother and sister showed no signs of deception...
"Alright!"
Kakashi finally nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Aoi couldn't help but grin: In the end, Kakashi was just a naive good person...
But what was unexpected was that Tazuna suddenly stepped forward, his face full of fear, and refused: "No, they can't go with me."
"Grandpa, why?" Aoi's eyes widened, looking at Tazuna in confusion.
"Because…"
Tazuna struggled for a long time, but finally let go with a look of dejection.
Because he was already targeted by terrifying ninjas. But he couldn't say it, because if he did, his country would be finished!
Aoi pouted dismissively: A boring attack of conscience.
And so, this ninja team heading to the Land of Waves grew larger. A vibrant ninja team, an anxious master bridge builder, and the pitiful Ren siblings...
