Konoha's 37th year has quietly arrived.
Due to the advent of medical ninjutsu scrolls, Konoha's casualty rate has dropped significantly, especially at the jounin level.
When Tsunade and Jiraiya returned to the battlefield, Bai Yu also returned to Team 12 after half a year and continued to perform tasks with the team.
Mission hall.
Oshima Shuichi went to the second floor to receive the mission, while Bai Yu, Uchiha Chiho, and Hyuga Hideto were waiting at the door on the first floor.
At this time, a young man with a kappa hairstyle and green tights walked out of the mission hall, looking downcast.
Bai Yu saw this and said hello to the young man.
"Mr. Dai."
When Matt Dai saw it was Bai Yu, he forced a smile and said, "It's Bai Yu. Are you on a mission with Xiu Yisang again?"
Bai Yu nodded, "Mr. Dai, what's wrong with you?"
"Hey..." Matt Dai sighed, "There have been no tasks like cleaning up garbage recently, and no one is willing to team up with me..."
"Mr. Dai, if you say that, it reminds me of something.
My yard has been overgrown with weeds recently and I don't even have time to clean it up.
I'm going to be out for a long time this time, so there's no one to clean the house. I'm about to release a task!
If you don't mind that two things are counted as one task, I would like to entrust this task to you. "
Bai Yu said.
"Of course... I am willing, but is it really okay?!" Matt Dai looked grateful, but hesitated a little.
In recent months, he has become relatively familiar with Bai Yu. Knowing that his parents were killed in battle and he is probably not financially well-off, he can do this kind of thing by himself.
I probably wanted to help him by posting the mission.
"If you are willing, it will be a big help. I will leave all the housework to you. As for the reward, I will pay it to you when I come back. Is that okay?" Bai Yu took out the door key from his arms and handed it to Matt Dai.
Anyway, he keeps the most important things in the storage scroll he carries with him. As for the experimental equipment and so on, they are all basic things and are not considered secrets.
"Of course, thank you so much, Bai Yu." Matt Dai nodded repeatedly, "Then are you issuing the mission now?"
"I will release the mission when I come back. You should go to my house first." Bai Yu looked at the stubborn Matt Dai, feeling helpless.
After issuing a task, Matedai would receive it again, and the village would still take a commission. Since he directly entrusted it personally, he would not have to go to a middleman to earn the difference. Moreover, this is the lowest level task, and the pay is very low.
"Okay." Matt Dai naturally believed Bai Yu and turned around and walked towards Bai Yu's house.
"Bai Yu, you can help such a ninja once, but you can't help him all the time." Hideto Hyuga, who has always been relatively taciturn in the team, said.
Matt Dai is somewhat famous, but that's because he is still a genin in his twenties. He knows nothing but taijutsu and is pitifully weak.
I heard that he was lagging behind in low-level missions several times, so much so that the fresh genin were unwilling to team up with him.
The group's C-level missions cannot be taken on by one person, so he usually fights for D-level missions with new genin.
"We have a good relationship, just a small favor." Bai Yu smiled, it was rare for Hyuuga Yingren to take the initiative to talk to him.
After a period of running-in, the team atmosphere was pretty good, but Hideo Hyuga and Chiho Uchiha were both the type to talk very little.
It's not that Bai Yu is overflowing with kindness, but the first time he saw Matt Dai, he remembered Met Kai in the first plot.
We can't say that the two are very similar, we can only say that they are exactly the same.
At first glance, Matt Dai is Met Kay's father. His iconic clothes and habitual movements are almost replicas of him.
At the beginning of the plot, Metkai, like Kakashi, is one of the elite jounin of Konoha Village.
He has mastered a technique called Eight Gate Dunjia, which can lift the restrictions of the physical body and burst out terrifying chakra.
This is similar to the explosive ability of the Knight's Breathing Technique, and Bai Yu is very interested in it.
Bai Yu considered this an early investment.
If staying in Konoha is good, then stay. If Konoha hinders his development, then he will leave. It is very necessary to accumulate some connections in advance.
Anyway, the mission reward that Matt Dai earns in a year is probably not as much as the usual pocket money that Kushina gives Shiro Yu.
Soon, Oshima Shuichi walked out of the mission hall. He received a mission to patrol the border.
The main purpose is to prevent the Iwagakure Village from suddenly invading while the main force of Konoha is fighting in the west.
There were two other squads performing the same mission as them on this trip.
...
A week later.
In the dense forest on the border.
Class 1, Class 12, and Class 17 meet up.
When he saw the person coming, Bai Yu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
They never expected that the first class would be on the mission with them.
The members of the first class are none other than the former chief of Shiroha's class, Muka Doma, Sarutobi Keita, who is of the same clan as the third generation, and Uchiha Munehito, the chief of the previous three classes.
The leader of the team was Sakumo Hatake, who had the title of Konoha White Fang.
Hatake Sakumo is probably three or four years older than the Sannin.
Although he is gradually being overtaken by the Sannin in terms of reputation, in terms of strength, he is still recognized as the ceiling of Jounin in Konoha today. When the Third Hokage was guarding the village, he was Konoha's trump card that could be used at any time.
In Bai Yu's perception, Hatake Sakumo's chakra strength was on the same level as Tsunade, stronger than Orochimaru and Jiraiya gave him the feeling.
As for another Jonin, Kouta Sakamoto, the three members he led seemed to be from the next class, and they were also newcomers with excellent graduation scores.
Among the 9 newcomers present, Bai Yu is the only one who is not from the ninja clan. The other 8 people are all elites of various ninja clans.
Of course, the one who feels the strongest among the genin is Uchiha Munehito of the first class.
He must have just turned 15 this year, and his chakra strength is not inferior to that of a Jonin. I don't know why he is still a Genin.
After the three classes reunited, the jounin gave the newbies a brief introduction before starting the deployment.
Then they camped in a clearing beside a stream.
In three days, the patrol mission is over and they can return to the village.
After the meal, it was still some time before it became completely dark, and the three jounin chatted aside.
The genin gathered around the bonfire to keep warm. The January night was very cold.
Keita Sarutobi was very talkative during his time at the ninja school. With him starting the conversation, and with the lively atmosphere of Bai Yu, a talented medical ninja who was in the limelight, everyone started talking more.
Only Uchiha Zonghito looked arrogant and sat far away from the eight people. Although he maintained basic courtesy, it was obvious that he seemed to disdain to be with the other genin.
However, Bai Yu can understand it. At such a young age, he has strength comparable to that of a Jonin, and the leader of the Jonin is Konoha White Fang, so he has the capital to be proud of.
Among the nine genin, he and Bai Yu are the strongest in real strength.
Just when the atmosphere of the chat was getting better and better, Uchiha Zonghito suddenly stood up and said with a straight face:
"You! Come out with me."
He said this to Uchiha Chiho.
Uchiha Chiho was originally listening to everyone's chatting, occasionally interjecting a few words, not saying much, but it was obvious that she enjoyed the process.
When she was called by Uchiha Zonghito, her expression tightened, she lowered her head and stood up, and followed him towards the small woods on the side.
As soon as the two of them walked into the woods, Keita Sarutobi poked his head and looked around with a gossipy face, and then whispered:
"Hey~ Do you know? Chiho-senpai's surname was not Uchiha, and she came to Konoha later. I heard that she has been ostracized in Uchiha, and it seems to be true.
And this Uchiha Munehito is such a stinker. His first two teammates seemed to have changed classes because they had a bad relationship with him.
Aren’t they just a few years older than us? What’s there to pretend? "
"Aren't most Uchiha like this?" Hinata Toma curled her lips. It seemed that her relationship with Uchiha Munehi was not very good either.
Bai Yu listened to the gossip silently and did not interrupt.
The two siblings don't look alike, but they are both very good-looking.
Reminiscent of the fact that Uchiha Chiho was not originally named Uchiha, it seemed that some Uchiha left a romantic debt outside and was found.
