In a corner of the underground space of "Shadow Stream", a training ground with comprehensive facilities has been built. Compared with setting up various complex barriers, this kind of actual civil engineering is actually much simpler.
The Third Hokage was quite considerate. The funds he approved for Hanyu were sufficient. On Hanyu's side, he was not stingy either. Instead, he spent the money where it should be spent.
Therefore, the infrastructure of the "Shadow Stream" is the best infrastructure, but... Hanyu should start thinking now, when ?
As we all know, Hanyu is a person who never saves money for the public. If he helps to save public funds, is he still a human being?
At this time, Sakumo was conducting daily training with the Uzumaki ninjas in the training ground, and the main content of the training was close combat . After all, except for Hanyu and Sakumo, the other ninjas of the "Shadow Stream" lacked physical ability, so such training was necessary.
Close combat is not the Uzumaki clan's forte, nor is it their natural talent. Fortunately, these ninjas are very young and have strong plasticity, so some shortcomings are not unrecoverable... Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, and the purpose of these trainings is only to increase their survivability as much as possible, rather than trying to train the Uzumaki clan members into ninjas who can fight with swords like Sakumo and Hanyu.
At this time, Hanyu had not yet arrived at the base. To be specific, he had just woken up at home when everyone was training hard.
Being a simple ninja is different from being a ninja who leads an organization. The latter requires too many things to care about and deal with. Hanyu now fully understands this, and he is adapting to this change... If you think about it this way, you can understand why the Hokage is a position that can be exhausting.
Hanyu woke up, and the first thing he saw was the black cat squatting on the windowsill. As an ordinary research subject in the experiment of training a summoned beast, for some reason this cat was very well behaved with Hanyu, and even when the window was open and he could move freely, it never tried to escape.
Perhaps its wild instinct is telling it that escaping is the exact equivalent of getting into a pot and then shutting the lid.
"I'm hungry."
Hanyu scratched his head and stood up.
Recruiting a girl who can cook is a very difficult task. For the time being, Hanyu cannot expect this to happen, so now he is hoping that the cat can be smarter and max out its cooking skills... Anyone who has fought with some giant creatures on an island knows that cats are very magical animals. They can save lives, cook and warm the bed. They are real treasures.
After cleaning himself up, eating something, and feeding the cat something even more casual, Hanyu then left home and headed for the base.
After everyone finished their routine training, Hanyu gathered everyone together.
Starting today, they will go to the designated location to perform the escort mission. Although this escort mission has more symbolic significance than practical significance, probably no one would attack the Hokage's fiancée. Wouldn't it be better to confront the Hokage directly? Even coercion is meaningless. No matter how you look at it, the Third Hokage is the kind of person who would give the order to fire.
But this does not mean that Hanyu and his colleagues can be lax in carrying out their mission.
In fact, as the first official mission of the "Shadow Stream", even if it is a vase mission, they must show 100% attitude.
As the wedding approaches, the number of outsiders and foreign forces in the village begins to increase gradually. Although the Ninja World War has only ended not long ago, everyone seems to be quite enthusiastic about this kind of "foreign affairs activity".
Of course, the only ones who would actively come to Konoha at this time are the small countries and small ninja villages that need to act according to Konoha's wishes. As for the other four ninja villages, only the great ally of Konoha, the Hidden Cloud Village, would send envoys, while the remaining three ninja villages would not take it seriously at all.
In addition, there is another person who has the highest reception standard, that is, the envoy sent by the Fire Country Daimyo. Even if the two sides have had conflicts before, the Daimyo must participate in such things. Who knows, the two sides may be able to use this opportunity to "bury the hatchet".
In general, it is precisely because the situation in the village is becoming complicated that even Hanyu's escort mission is necessary.
Hanyu adjusted the position of the long sword behind him, then picked up a robe hanging on the side, and then put a scroll on his back, so that his personal image was unified with everyone else.
However, scrolls are different from each other. The scrolls of the Uzumaki clan contain various complex techniques, which are used for fighting or protection. However, the scrolls of Hanyu and Hatake are all blank, and they are too hard to be used as toilet paper.
"As everyone knows, we are ninjas. It shouldn't be a problem for a ninja to carry a scroll with him, right?"
After Hanyu sorted out his equipment, he asked Sakumo beside him.
"No problem." Sakumo said.
Hanyu glanced at the other person and thought that Sakumo still had no tacit understanding and could answer questions in a crooked way. At this time, he should have said, "To be honest, I'm just a passerby. Although I didn't read the content, I felt that it was rubbish when I saw the title."
Hanyu saw that everyone had packed up and it was almost time, so he said to everyone, "Let's start the mission, Konoha Defense Team, attack."
Since the barrier of the Shadow Stream Base was already effective, and there was only one thing in the entire base that needed special protection, Hanyu only left two people behind and took the remaining eleven people out.
The group quietly slipped to the ground, then regrouped, and then they walked towards the mission location in a mighty manner.
In the ninja village, it was common to see ninjas wearing the same uniform, but the problem was that no one had ever seen ninjas dressed like Hanyu and the others, so passers-by looked at them sideways... At least Sakumo felt ashamed as if he was being paraded through the streets.
However, Hanyu had a blank expression on his face. Hatake still hadn't mastered the skill yet. They came out just to do this, so how could they be afraid of being seen?
According to the mission requirements received previously, Hanyu led the team to a mansion. After handing over to the two ninjas guarding the door, they took over the security affairs here.
The two ninjas were also looking at this group of people with a somewhat puzzled look, but there was no problem with the handover of the mission book, so they could only suppress this doubt in their hearts.
"Everyone, spread out and make arrangements, then the mission will begin... Next, I will go meet with Master Biwako."
Hanyu entered the courtyard and saw Biwako. How should I put it... Well, she was definitely prettier than the Third Hokage, but more importantly, she seemed to be taller than the Hokage himself.
"Master Biwako, according to the instructions of the Third Hokage, we will be responsible for your safety from now on."
Since they were not very familiar with each other, Hanyu spoke in a serious manner without looking away.
"Hanyu, I heard Hiruzen talk about you, and I also know the task he assigned to you, so I'll leave it to you from now on." Biwako said. She looked like a calm and stable person.
Hanyu nodded, then left the room and returned to his post...
There shouldn't be any problems this time. I can finally carry out a mission normally and peacefully.
