Attempted capture

Before starting reading, I would also like to invite you to familiarize yourself with my author's work "The Path of Omniscience", where the main character is not a person, he is cold and insensitive to everything.

Moving at a fairly fast speed, the group with several stops, in the late afternoon, approached the nearby village from which the ordering was received.

Stopping hundreds of meters away from the village, Hiko glanced at the children, waiting for their actions. The first one to react was Samato, activating byakugan, he began to inspect the nearest territory. Seeing his actions, the remaining two also activated the byakugan.

After a few minutes of inspection, Samato deactivated his eyes and looked at the group commander, said.

- There are several suspicious elements in the village, with cold weapons available. Several are located in the largest house, in the center of the village.

After listening, Hiko nodded and saw that the other two, with a dissatisfied face, also deactivated the byakugan. Ignoring the light burning deep in Kuzu's eyes, he asked.

- Okay, well done. What are your next steps?

Without giving anyone else a chance to speak, Kuzu shouted out with a confident expression on his face.

- Of course kill the bandits!

There was a moment's silence, which was interrupted by a rather calm voice, with a trace of suspicion.

- It's still true that your stupidity is comparable to your meager talent. If we just kill them, we will spend more time on future investigation. It's easier to seize and extract information from them.

Smiling, Samato nodded and feigning contempt, he looked at Kuzu, who clenched his fists

- I agree with Satoshi, we need to be guided by logic and profit, rather than stupidity of consciousness and lack of intelligence.

Smiling faintly, Hiko, trying as gently as possible to stop the altercation, said.

- There is no need for insults. Kuzu-kun, although your efforts to show your strength are commendable, but in some situations it is necessary to show restraint.

Ashamed lowering his head and clenching his jaw, Kuzu muttered.

- I understand, thank you for the training.

Nodding, Hiko signaled to the five ninjas standing nearby. After seeing the commander's order and folding a few quick seals, the members of the group disappeared with a flicker. Turning back to the children, he said in a serious tone.

- Go and capture the bandits in the village. I and the others will be there, if you are in serious danger, we will intervene.

Having finished, Hiko folded the seal with one hand, disappeared using the flicker, leaving the trio alone.

- And how will we act? - Smiling, Samato was the first to speak.

After looking thoughtfully, Satoshi said.

- Do you have any suggestions?

- Yes, I think it is necessary to act more carefully. Possible…

- What's the point, they are ordinary people, we can easily capture them. Standing here, we're wasting time talking.

Kuzu's voice sounded sharply, filled with longing. The two who were talking looked at him contemptuously.

- I forgot that there are three of us, although one of us a cargo. So, perhaps there are local informers in the settlement who are loyal to the group and as soon as we capture the bandits, the traitors can somehow transmit information.

Maliciously looking and listening to Kuzu, contemptuously hissed.

- It doesn't matter, if they try to transmit information, Hiko and the others will intercept them.

- You really are an idiot. This mission was created for us to gain experience. Since you have not heard the captain's words again, I will repeat them, "we will intervene if you are in serious danger." That is, they will not interfere with the mission, unless we are in serious danger.

With a cold expression, Satoshi said contemptuously. Shifting his gaze to Samato, he asked.

- Do you think it's worth tracking down the informers first and only then proceed to capture?

- No need, we'll just secretly capture one of the bandits and find out from him if there are traitors.

- OK. – Seriously looking at Kuzu, Satoshi continued threateningly. – Don't you dare set us up. If, because of your stupidity and weakness, we do not fulfill the mission well, I will personally beat you.

- One of the bandits is now in a separate house. I think he'll do.

...

- Please stop! Let Mom go.

A little boy lying on the floor was screaming, his face was full of tears and sprinkled with blood flowing from an open wound on his forehead.

- Shut up. Damn, I thought one punch would be enough to kill you.

An angry man shouted, sitting on a rather beautiful woman who was trying to resist. When she heard the scream, she turned her head to the boy and shouted in despair.

- Kurugi, run, please! Argh.

A man, hearing the screams of a woman, got very angry and hit her in the face. Realizing that this was not enough and she continued to resist, he began to strike blow after blow

- Shut up, you bastard!

After a couple of blows, the woman's screams stopped. The child who was watching all this, with an expression of anger, barely rising to his feet, rushed at the bandit. Grabbing his bloody hand, he bit him with all his might.

- Oh, Damn it.

The man, feeling the pain, waved his hand and threw the boy aside. Looking at his hand, he saw deep, bleeding bite marks. Glaring at the child, he took the sword lying next to him, got up from the woman and walked towards the boy.

"YOU damn kid. You're lucky you didn't die on the first hit, but now.

Approaching the child lying face down on the floor, the man kicked him, turning him over on his back. Putting his foot on the boy's chest with force, he looked him in the face. Seeing the small eyes glaring at him maliciously, the man sneered contemptuously.

- Hmm, maybe I shouldn't kill you and let you enjoy how I fuck your mother?

- Aghh!

- Ha ha. That you hate me? You know, even my boss thinks I'm doing the wrong thing by raping captured women, but he himself killed a lot of people. So why should I consider the opinions of others? When I was still in the capital, I saw a lot of shit, and now, I have the freedom to do what I want. But come on, maybe this time I'll be lenient and spare you.

Having finished, he raised his sword and was about to finish off the boy, when suddenly, an irritated voice was heard behind him.

- Kuzu, idiot, don't kill him.

In the next moment, the man felt a blow and a pain in his back, from which he was thrown into the wall.

- What are you doing, you idiot, we need him alive!

- How can you!

- Shut up, Samato, what's wrong with him?

Taking his irritated gaze away from Kuzu, Satoshi looked at Samato, who was sitting next to a man spitting blood. He, in turn, folded the seals into a mystical hand and activated the byakugan, treated the bandit.

- Don't worry, as long as he lives. I will close some internal injuries and will be ready to answer our questions.

- Why are you treating this garbage?! First you need to cure the woman and the boy!

An angry Kuzu screamed, who had already run up to the woman lying in blood. Her previously beautiful face was covered with blood flowing from wounds and bruises, while her nose was driven into her skull.

Without turning around and continuing to treat the man, Samato replied in a calm voice.

- We don't have time for this, or do you want to fail the mission?

- But she needs help.

- If you want to help her so much, then stop being useless and interfering. Just shut up and wait for me to finish treating this body, then I will help the woman not to die.
