Sakumo Squad

In Morning.

Ayane was teasing the caged bird in the corridor, with a gentle smile on her white and clean face.

At the other end of the corridor, Hiashi who had already washed up saw this scene. The beautiful picture was frozen at this moment, and Hiashi was a little absent-minded when he looked there.

It should have be several years when he met Ayane.

At that time, he didn't think that Ayane could stay by his side and become his maid.

"Good morning, Master Hiashi."

After seeing Hiashi, Ayane stood up unhurriedly, stopped teasing the bird in the cage, and smiled gently and respectfully at Hiashi.

Pure white pupils give people all the beauty in the world.

Every time he saw Ayane's eyes like this, Hiashi kept asking questions in his heart.

Has she accepted the fate of separation?

Has she really obeyed the Main family?

There is no resentment and hostility in her eyes.

It seems that because of getting along with him for several years, she let go of her prejudice against the Main family.

"Good morning, Ayane."

Hiashi is not a deliberately indifferent person, both he and Ayane are very clear about this.

But because he is too gentle, he must Maintain a serious and cold image in front of people.

His gentleness may be a disaster for the Hyuga clan, and it will also hurt others.

His gentleness had hurt his younger brother Hizashi, so he didn't want Ayane, the maid who had followed him for several years, to get hurt too.

"I heard that you are going to perform a mission?"

"Yes, Master Hiashi. I'm very sorry, I may not be able to serve you at any time in the future."

Ayane bowed in apology.

"It doesn't matter, our Hyuga family is also a part of Konoha. Don't worry, your leader, Jōnin Hatake Sakumo, is an excellent ninja."

Hiashi seemed to know something.

"Did Master Hiashi request this matter to the patriarch?"

Ayane's pure white pupils have a mild color without impurities.

Hiashi didn't answer.

Passed by Ayane with a calm expression.

Ayane looked at the time, it was almost time to assemble, and she was about to leave.

"that…"

Hiashi's voice came from behind.

Ayane turned her head and looked at Hiashi suspiciously.

Hiashi did not turn around, but turned his back to Ayane.

"Please protect yourself."

After saying this, Hiashi suddenly quickened his pace and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Unlike those indifferent and arrogant clan members, Hiashi always has a soft heart.

Ayane only had a gentle smile on her face, as if she heard what Hiashi said, but also didn't seem to hear it.

She tied the forehead protector on her forehead, and her long, jet-black satin hair hung down. She stopped in the corridor for a while, then raised her steps and walked towards the outside of the Hyuga clan.

I don't deserve your kindness, Master Hiashi. She said this sentence in her heart.

••••

After the sky-high price of barbecue yesterday, the atmosphere of the team is relatively harmonious.

Hatake Sakumo also had some understanding of the three members of the team.

Chiba Shiraishi, a medical ninja, has not seen much in terms of personality, but generally speaking, he is a common and visible ninja, but the medical ninja profession has given him a lot of points.

Hyuga Ayane, born in a wealthy branch family, has a gentle and considerate personality, and occasionally has a little more appetite, which is in line with the lively personality of young people. Most importantly, she can eat very well.

Uchiha Ruri, the genius of the Uchiha clan, judging from the short fight yesterday, her skill is not weaker than the average Jonin. Specially marked, rich.

In the eyes of the Shiraishi and others, the ninja named Sakumo Hatake, who is known as Konoha White Fang, has a casual personality and is not as ruthless as the rumors people made up. He is also a poor guy who can't even afford a barbecue.

Really a shame on Jounin.

After all, there is always a big gap between facts and rumors, and after getting along with Sakumo has become very casual. Sakumo has no airs of ninja at all, and can communicate with anyone on an equal footing.

At ten o'clock in the morning, members of Sakumo's team gathered at the gate of konoha Village.

"Just now I went to Hokage-sama to accept an A-level mission, let's use this to practice."

The corner of Shiraishi's mouth twitched, and he knew that this team was not performing ordinary tasks.

Practicing with A-level missions, Shiraishi can feel the miserable mission career with no bright future.

It should be too late to quit now.

"lets go."

Seeing that the three of them had different expressions, but they all obeyed the arrangement honestly, he couldn't help but nodded and disappeared from the spot.

Shiraishi and the other three were not slow in their movements, and they all chased after Hatake Sakumo the moment Hatake Sakumo disappeared.

Because the most important thing for long-distance travel is to ensure sufficient physical strength, so ninjas will not run very fast during the running process, otherwise even Jonin will not be able to bear it.

"Sakumo-Sensei, what is the content of the A-level task?"

Seeing that neither Ruri nor Ayane was willing to ask about the content of the mission, Shiraishi asked.

Sakumo didn't hide it: "A large-scale battle is taking place on the front line. Our task is to cut off the enemies lurking in the land of fire. They often attack the supply convoy transported from Konoha, and destroy the towns of the land of fire."

"Is it that serious? That is to say..."

Shiraishi vaguely guessed something.

"Ah, you guessed right. A-level missions may become S-level missions at any time, because even Anbu can't fully grasp the whereabouts of those lurkers. That's why we have a ninja with Byakugan in the team. Our task is to wander around in the land of fire and eliminate all enemies that appear in the sight of Byakugan."

How many ninjas there are, how many ninjas are Jounin, and how many ninjas are all unknown.

This is also the reason why Hatake Sakumo said that the A-level task may be transformed into an S-level task at any time.

"Only our group?"

Ruri asked calmly, not feeling scared because of the task content.

"Of course not, there will be a team of Anbu to cooperate."

Shiraishi and others nodded, feeling a little relieved.

With the cooperation of the Anbu of a unit, the work should be much easier.

There are a total of 70 people in Anbu, and there are two captains and deputy captains. They exist as the personal guards of Hokage and generally do not go out directly for missions.

Under the head and deputy head, there are four sub-team Anbu.

Each team has a team leader, each team leader has four squads, and each squad has four Anbu ninjas.

That is to say, one sub-leader plus sixteen Anbu ninjas from four squads, a total of seventeen Anbu ninjas cooperated with Sakumo's team to cut off the hidden enemies in the land of fire.

The rest of the journey was silent. An hour after leaving the village, Ayane immediately opened her Byakugan and scanned the surrounding environment to see if there were any enemies lurking within the detection range of her Byakugan.

Ayane's Byakugan detection range is five kilometers in radius, which is a bigger breakthrough than in previous years.

After another hour, Hatake Sakumo, who was at the front of the line, made a stop sign.

The four of them landed in an open space and stopped.

"Take a rest here first."

The most important thing in a small team is discipline. Since Hatake Sakumo is the captain, the three of them will naturally obey unconditionally.

After sitting down, Sakumo said: "Going forward is a dangerous area, where we may encounter ninjas ambushing us at any time. The three of you have very good theoretical grades in school. You should know the basic cooperation between the teams."

"Is it the three principles of medical ninjas?"

Shiraishi asked.

Sakumo nodded.

The so-called three major principles of medical ninjas are stipulated by Jounin Tsunade Senju, one of the three legendary Sainin.

Rule 1 — No medic ninja shall ever stop medical treatment until the lives of their party members have come to an end.

Rule 2 — No medic ninja shall ever stand on the front lines.

Rule 3 — No medic ninja shall ever die until they are the last of their team ( squad ,party etc. )

Therefore, it is not shameful for a medical ninja to avoid a fight, nor is it shameful for a medical ninja to accept protection from others.

"Next, I will be in charge of the assault. You two, Ruri and Ayane, must stay by Shiraishi's side at all times. Even if the surroundings do not seem to be in danger, you are not allowed to give priority to fighting. Even if you have to fight, Ruri, you are responsible for the attack, and Ayane is responsible for the protection."

"yes!"

Understanding( theory) and being able to do it ( practical) are two different things, but Hatake Sakumo can only trust the cooperation between the three of them.

After resting for more than ten minutes, Hatake Sakumo led the three of them to move on.

As Hatake Sakumo said, if you go any further, you will be in a dangerous area where safety cannot be guaranteed, and fighting may occur anytime and anywhere.

"One o'clock ahead, about 2,300 meters away, there are 7 sand hidden ninjas in ambush there. Two are hiding underground, three are hiding behind trees, and the other two are hiding in the grass."

Suddenly, Ayane, who kept her Byakugan open, shared the information observed by her Byakugan.

"Keep up."

Hatake Sakumo's footsteps suddenly accelerated, and he ran quickly in the direction of one o'clock pointed by Ayane.

Under Byakugan's insight, all ambushes and concealments are exposed like the sun, and there is nothing to hide.

The distance of 2,300 meters is not too long, and it took less than three minutes to reach the enemy's ambush circle.

" Sakumo-Sensei, should we be careful..."

Just as Ayane was about to say something, Hatake Sakumo had already disappeared from sight.

Under Byakugan's detection, they saw only a flash of sword light, and the Chakra of the 5 sand hidden ninjas disappeared directly, turning into cold corpses.

There were two other people who fled towards them in a panic. They probably were scared out of their wits by Hatake Sakumo's surprise attack at that moment.

"There are two targets in front of you. They were specially sent by the sensei to practice. Let's solve them directly with fire style."

Ayane sighed.

Where the enemy came from, how many targets, and what method was used to target them, all of them could be clearly seen with Byakugan.

This is not a battle at all.

The seal on the side of Ruri has been completed.

Two consecutive oversized fireballs spit out from the mouth.

The two people who fled towards here did not expect the fireball to come so Fast, as if the time was pinched, and they turned into coke in the fireball.
