Approaching the trio of ninjas, Samato thought with a frown.

"From what I see, this Romero understands his position. Hmm, it seems this gang leader is one of those who cares about his own or at least about these two. I hope that all my attempts to put pressure on Kuzu will work and he will want to prove himself."

Standing right in front of the opponent, Samato and Satoshi stopped.

- I take the right, you take the left, these two are weaker than us, but about the leader of the bandits, keep your eyes open. If one of us has a stalemate, the other should support to the best of his ability.

- Got it.

Having coordinated the action, the two rushed at the bandits. Quickly approaching the young man with the black crew cut hair, Samato began the attack with simple blows of a soft fist.

His opponent, realizing that even despite the difference in size, he would lose in a direct clash of taijutsu, decided to retreat by throwing kunai. Diving down, Samato easily dodged and with a quick jerk approached Shoto. Directing the chakra to the tips of his fingers, he struck a blow to the chest, knocking the opponent's breath.

Not going to stop there, Samato was about to start a series of punches when he noticed a sharp movement from Romero. Quickly jumping back and grinning inwardly, he threw the kunai at Shoto. After that, avoiding hitting a large shureken, Samato, taking out a new kunai, threw it to the side where Satoshi was fighting.

Frowning, Romero pulled the string and changed the trajectory of the big shureken in order to repel the kunai flying to Shoto. After taking out an ordinary shureken with his other hand, he threw it kunai Samato.

Meanwhile, Samato, taking advantage of Romero's distraction, approached Shoto again. Which had already regained consciousness and wiped a little blood that had flowed out from behind his mouth, angrily looked at him.

Seeing the approach of the enemy, Shoto struck a sharp blow with a kunai to his head. Unfortunately for him, Samato easily deflected the blow with one hand to the side, the other counterattacked him with a palm in the stomach.

From the blow, Shoto felt a strong pain and bending over, an abundance of saliva mixed with blood escaped from his mouth. Samato, without giving the opponent time to recover, struck again.

On the other hand, the bandit leader, seeing that Shoto's situation was getting worse and worse, gritted his teeth. After looking at the nearby battlefield and making sure that Heruo was holding up, he decided to intervene.

"This damn kid, I hope his elders don't interfere."

Samato, who was watching with the help of byakugan, suddenly smiled inwardly. When Romero was about to move to Shoto, he was stopped by a kunai who arrived flew into it and made the man frown even more.

Swinging the katonna, he easily beat it off and after examining where the kunai was thrown from, the man saw another one a boy running in his direction. Cursing him inwardly, Romero tightened his grip on the katana and focused the chakra in his direction.

"The element of wind: wind maple"

The katana was embraced by the chakra of the element of wind and, waving, a slash of compressed wind, measuring several meters, flew off it. Not paying attention to the consequences after the blow, Ramero jerked towards Shoto, who was already on his knees. From his mouth, with every attempt to inhale, an abundance of blood escaped, and pain could be seen in his eyes.

Seeing Romero approaching, Samato thought about it and waited for the opponent to get close enough to look contemptuously into his eyes. Having folded the seals, his body was instantly enveloped in gray smoke, into which a powerful katana blow immediately flew.

After cutting through the smoke and seeing only a chopped log, Ramero gritted his teeth and turned to Shoto. When he was about to help, he caught sight of an explosive tag attached to his chest, engulfed in flames.

Romero's pupils dilated in fear, a sense of self-preservation seized him, against his will, and with all his strength the man rushed as far as possible from the subordinate, who was looking after him with despair.

A small explosion sounded on the battlefield, which attracted the attention of the others. Romero slid a few meters on the ground, turned in the direction of the explosion. His eyes were red with anger and sadness, and the sound of gnashing teeth could be heard from behind his mouth.

The eyes examining the battlefield, a few seconds after the cloud of raised dust had dispersed, saw that a few tens of meters from the explosion on the ground, there was a burnt corpse with a torn wound on the chest. Rushing in his direction, Romero tried to restrain himself from the incipient feeling of guilt.

Approaching, he lifted the body, in the chest of which there was a large scorched hole, with visible parts of organs. After looking at him for a while, Romero looked around the battlefield with rage in his eyes, looking for the culprit of his heartache.

Meanwhile, Samato, having quietly made his way, approached Kuzu, who was frozen in place, who was looking at the explosion with incomprehension.

- If you continue like this, you will definitely not deserve the recognition of others.

Surprised by these words, Kuzu turned towards the voice, ready to attack at any moment. But when he saw Samato, he froze in place.

- What are you watching?

- You…

– I? - raising an eyebrow, Samato pointed at himself with his finger.

A vein appeared on Kuzu's forehead, and he growled angrily.

- Why did you kill them all?

Feigning incomprehension, Samato quickly surveyed the battlefield.

- Well, if you don't remember, our task is to destroy the gang. And for this it is necessary to kill them, although some of them, as I see, have escaped into the forest.

- But…

- Okay, I take it you don't want to prove your worth?

Kuzu stopped abruptly and glared at Samato.

- As if you can help me. I heard what you were talking about back in the village, so you can't fool me.

- Oh, so you heard. Well, well, what can I do, and I tried so hard to help you. Since you don't need my help, I think I'll go and take care of this gang leader, and I can only wish you good luck.

Surprised Kuzu for a second, frozen suddenly screamed.

- Help? What the hell kind of help, you and Satoshi decided to take all the credit from me in order to make me look like nothing.

- Eh? How could you think that? We're from the same clan. I said this to Samato to give you a chance to prove yourself. You're not stupid and you should understand that the enemy is 3 people and while we were busy with enemy ninjas, you could restrain the leader.

Kuzu's face began to express disbelief, and he asked with a strange hope in his voice.

- Y-are you telling the truth, did you do this for me?

- Of course, all this was done for you. And now let's move on to the plan, you can take care of the leader, and I'll go and help Satoshi deal with his opponent. After that, we will all deal with this Romero together.

- But…

- There is no time, go, if I'm around, just restrain him and then the three of us will easily deal with him. Don't worry about the merits, the captain will definitely highlight the part where you held off an opponent stronger than you.

A little uncertainly, Kuzu nodded.

- Okay, I hope you're not lying.

- I believe in you, and you believe. As soon as we finish the mission, you will receive a confession from your uncle.

Hearing about the confession, a twinkle flashed in Kuzu's eyes, and he nodded once again and ran towards Ramero. Samato, in turn, after examining the battlefield, slowly ran towards Satoshi, thinking to himself.

"I hope everything goes smoothly."
