Chapter 169 The Danger of Ninja (3k)
“Hmph, even Kakashi wants to surpass me in this task, so I’ll make sure you never come back.” Obito was in a good mood as he was walking on the road looking for the cat.
He felt that he was sure to win, because among the five tasks that Mu Yue took on, one was to find a cat and the other was to find a lost object. He must complete these two first, and if he finished the remaining one casually, he would definitely win.
Fighting against him who has the power of grandma and grandpa, Kakashi has no chance of winning.
With the help of many enthusiastic old people, Obito gradually learned the whereabouts of the lost pet cat.
But something happened that Obito didn't expect. When he arrived at his destination, he actually saw Kakashi who had caught the pet cat.
“Kakashi, why are you here?” Obito asked in confusion.
"Obviously, I'm here to complete the commissioned task." Kakashi replied calmly.
Obito scratched his hair. Of course he knew that Kakashi was here for a mission. He was wondering why Kakashi arrived before him.
"You are lucky this time. I will let you know the strength of Konoha's mission king later." Obito decided not to waste time with Kakashi and quickly complete the next mission.
“Then just wait and see.” Kakashi said calmly. Obito will definitely lose this time.
Because Kakashi was now leading a task, Obito moved much faster. He didn't want to lose after saying harsh words.
With the advantage of personal connections, Obito chose to complete the task of finding lost items.
“Thank you, grandpa, for your information.”
“There’s no need for cookies or anything else. Thank you grandma for your help.”
In this way, Obito arrived at the place where he was lost.
But something happened that Obito didn't expect. Kakashi was actually one step ahead of him, arriving at the location first and finding the lost items.
“Kakashi, why is it you again.” Obito felt something was wrong.
Kakashi has completed two missions and he has not completed any yet.
"Why can't it be me? Do you have to complete this task first?" Kakashi asked.
Obito had nothing to say and ran quickly to the next mission location.
When he arrived at the place where the garbage was to be cleaned up, he found that the garbage here had already been cleaned up by Kakashi's shadow clone.
"Damn it, this mission has actually been completed!" Obito felt extremely unhappy. He was completely at a disadvantage in the first round. Kakashi had already completed three missions.
“Akai went to do the task of moving things, and it’s almost finished. The only task left is to clean up the garbage in the trap area. If you go quickly, you may be able to finish it before Akai.” Mu Yue appeared in time to remind.
“Teacher Muyue, I’m lucky to have you.” Obito thanked Muyue and quickly ran to the trap area.
If he didn't complete any of the tasks in the first round, the pressure in the second round would be too much. As long as he completed more than four tasks, it would be difficult to win. But why did he complete so many tasks? It's not like Kakashi and Metkai didn't. No hands or feet.
The reward for cleaning up garbage in the trap area is much higher than that of ordinary D-level tasks, because the difficulty is slightly higher, and it will be troublesome if you don't care about triggering the trap.
When everyone completed the task round, Mu Yue announced the completion of the tasks of the disciples.
“Kakashi is temporarily in the lead, and the current number of missions is three. Akai Obito is tied, and the current number of missions is one.”
"It seems that I will be the winner this time." Kakashi said calmly, as if he had done something insignificant.
"Kakashi, don't be too arrogant. You have to take on the mission later. It's not certain who will win or lose." Obito hasn't given up yet.
“Yes, there is still hope of victory until the last moment!” Metkai gave a thumbs up and laughed.
Seeing that the disciples were all so motivated, Mu Yue smiled and nodded. The speed of chakra growth was much faster than in class.
After five tasks, I have gained more than 200 chakras. Even if I take a full-day class, I can only gain 80 chakras in one day.
Received five more missions, but this time Obito was not in the mood to hum a little tune and walked away slowly. As soon as he received the mission, he would see if there were any missions that he was good at completing.
However, among the five tasks this time, only one is related to searching, and the others are just chores.
But Obito had no choice, one was better than none. After reading the mission description, Obito ran away and went to look for it.
When Obito reached the final location after all the hard work, he saw the person he least wanted to see.
"Why is it you! Kakashi!" Obito couldn't hold himself any longer, but Kakashi actually finished the task just one step ahead of him.
“Complete the mission.” Kakashi’s answer was still the same as before.
“Something’s wrong, 12% out of 10 something is wrong.” Obito noticed something unusual in his heart.
It can be said that it was good luck that Kakashi happened to be in the lead once, but it was too coincidental to lead three times in a row. If Kakashi had this ability, how could he have lost to him three times in a row before.
"Have you finally discovered it?" Kakashi was a little surprised. With Obito's IQ, he thought that Obito would discover the truth later.
"Kakashi, you must have bought inside information with money, so you can be faster than me, right?" Obito said as if he had seen through everything. "You have been a ninja for several years, and you must have saved a lot of money. I didn't expect you to do this."
Kakashi:…
He really doesn't understand Obito's brain circuit. Shouldn't he guess that he is being followed? What the **** is buying inside information with money?
“Why do you think so?” Kakashi couldn’t help but ask.
“Isn’t it like this in novels? The villain uses money to surpass the hard-working protagonist.” Obito said matter-of-factly.
Kakashi was speechless. It turned out that in Obito's eyes, he was the villain, and Obito himself was the protagonist.
Since Obito’s answer was too outrageous, Kakashi said directly:
"There are no inside stories in D-level missions, and no one will spend money to complete D-level missions. The reason why I can be one step ahead of you is because I followed you and found the mission target faster than you."
What should I do if I don’t have any information? I just eavesdrop on other people’s information. Kakashi is so far ahead just by collecting the local wool all the way and then letting his shadow clone do the chores.
"Following? How despicable!" Obito was shocked. He didn't expect Kakashi to be one step ahead of him for this reason. This was simply stealing the fruits of his labor.
"There is nothing mean or despicable. You can also follow me, if you have the ability." Kakashi provoked.
“Reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance are the basic skills of ninjas. If you had discovered me in time, I would not have caused such a result.”
"Damn it, if I had the Sharingan, I would definitely find you!" Obito was very unwilling. He recalled the memory of looking for something, but he didn't realize that he was being followed at all.
"Let's wait until we have the Sharingan to talk about this. The world of ninjas is very cruel. If the enemy is following you, guess what will happen to you." After Kakashi said that, he turned and left to continue the task. .
Thanks to Obito, they still have four tasks to do.
Kakashi's words made Obito's blood pressure rise immediately. He wanted to have a real-person PK with Kakashi immediately, and was mocked when the victory fruit was stolen. If his breathing technique had reached the realm of Changzhong, could he bear this anger?
Obito turned his anger into motivation and started to do the task quickly. He didn't want to lose too ugly.
The result of the second round was that Kakashi completed two tasks alone, Metkai and Obito each completed one alone, and then completed one together.
“Kakashi completed five tasks alone and won first place, and Obito Akai tied for second.” Mu Yue announced the final result.
“Haha, he is indeed my old enemy. He has made great progress, and he actually completed half of the task by himself!” Metkai laughed.
Originally, Metkay wanted to give full play to his physical skills, so he chose all coolie tasks. Unexpectedly, each of those tasks was more difficult than the last, and Metkay only completed two and a half of them.
“Fortunately, I just beat a certain boaster.” Kakashi said calmly.
Although he didn’t say his name, he actually just had to read out the number on Obito’s internship certificate.
"Yesterday I made three more than you did. Adding those three makes me five and a half, more than you!" Obito chose to settle an old score.
"If you count the previous missions, my C-level missions alone are more than your D-level missions." Kakashi said calmly.
“Everyone worked hard today. After the task is delivered, I will take you to my house for dinner.” Mu Yue ended the dispute between the two with a smile on his face.
"Jounin Muyue, you won't be able to receive any tasks for the time being. You have almost done all the chores. You did ten tasks in one afternoon. You are too efficient." Registering the ninja and Muyue when delivering the tasks reminded.
“What! There’s no mission?” Obito couldn’t help but ask.
He was still thinking about being careful and defeating Kakashi again tomorrow. How could he avenge his shame without a mission?
“You are too fast. You completed twenty tasks in two days. Some classes cannot complete that many tasks in a month.” The registered ninja said helplessly.
"There are no D-level missions, so there should be other missions, right?" Obito couldn't swallow his breath today.
“Don’t think about it, you interns can only accept D-level missions at the moment.” The registered ninja replied.
"Don't underestimate me. Although I'm still in school, I'm the top grader in the ninja school and I've defeated official ninjas." Obito still didn't give up.
“If it doesn’t work, it won’t work.” The registered ninja’s attitude is very clear.
Regardless of whether Obito's words were true or not, he didn't want to do such a rule-breaking thing. There would be no benefit. When something happens, he would be the first to be unlucky.
"What happened?" Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was off duty, happened to see this scene and saw Kakashi Mutsuki, so he stepped forward and asked.
“Sandaime-sama.” The registered ninja addressed him respectfully.
"That's right, their class..." The registered ninja quickly reported the cause to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
“I did twenty tasks in two days.” Hiruzen Sarutobi was also a little surprised.
"In this case…"
