The genius of Naruto is a bit ordinary

"Captain, what mission has been arranged this time?" Hyena asked first.

"The mission this time is quite special. We need to protect a transportation team heading to the Kingdom of Iron." Tianzang answered, and looked at Xia Li as he spoke.

The hyena and fox were startled when they heard this, protection?

"Captain, isn't this kind of mission usually done by the team on the surface?" Hyena asked doubtfully.

The hyena is right. The work of ANBU is generally not very clean, at least some of it is shady, and some of the tasks on the surface are completed by ninjas who have graduated from ninja schools and follow their leading teachers.

"That's right, but our mission is only covert protection. On the surface, there will be another ninja team outside the ANBU to complete this mission, but Mo Ying's mission is a little different." Tianzang said.

Suddenly, the hyena and the fox looked at each other. In the past, they might have been a little unbalanced, but now that they have fully seen Xia Li's strength, what does this imbalance mean?

Xia Li was also startled at this time and looked at Tianzang.

Tianzang did not explain immediately, but spread out the mission scroll and said, "Let's take a look at this mission for ourselves first."

Xia Li withdrew her gaze, looked at the scroll, and then realized that the mission location this time was a bit far away, and the destination was the Kingdom of Iron.

Although the Kingdom of Iron and the Kingdom of Fire are adjacent,... the Kingdom of Fire is huge! And the speed of the transport team cannot be compared with the ninja's footsteps...

Soon, Xia Li also finished reading the mission introduction. The apparent mission of the team was to send a transport team back to the Kingdom of Iron, but their mission was actually just to protect two people back to the Kingdom of Iron.

The two people they want to protect are a pair of grandsons. The grandpa seems to be a very famous blacksmith and master of craftsmanship. He has made weapons for many samurai, and many ninjas even go to him to make weapons.

The master of craftsmanship has a grandson who is exactly twelve or thirteen years old this year, and more importantly, he doesn't show up much outside.

Therefore, Xia Li's task is to pretend to be the grandson of the master of craftsmanship and guard him. As for the real grandson of the master of craftsmanship, he will naturally stay with the master of craftsmanship and usually remain hidden.

As for the enemies this time, they are actually some wandering ninjas on the surface, but according to the investigation of the ANBU's intelligence department, there may be Mist ninjas involved in this mission.

Xia Li didn't find it strange when it came to the Mist Ninja, because the forging of ninja tools there was also quite famous, so he probably would really like the skills of the master craftsman...

After reading the mission, several people felt that... this mission was only suitable for Tianzang's team. After all, the entire ANBU was as small as Xia Li, and only Tianzang's team had it.

Of course, if it really doesn't exist, you can also use other methods, but currently this method of protection is the best.

After all, those people can probably guess that there will be someone protecting the master craftsman, but it is difficult to imagine that the grandson next to the master craftsman is the person protecting him!

And Xia Li was also thinking, is he a blacksmith master? In this case, can we find other parties to build future Flying Thunder God Kunai?

After all, the material of the Flying Thunder God Kunai is still very important. Although the Flying Thunder God's mark will not disappear, if the material is not good and breaks in the middle, then the Flying Thunder God's mark will lose its effect.

This is a good opportunity.

"Mo Ying, this is the human skin mask issued from above. You need to get used to it first. The mission will start in an hour." Tian Zang handed Xia Li a box at this time and said.

"Okay." Xia Li took the box and walked to the inner room. He did not intend to reveal his true face.

Although ninjas have the most basic ninjutsu transformation technique, they are usually used temporarily and it is impossible to maintain the transformation technique all the time.

Soon, Xia Li came out wearing a human skin mask.

"Oh, he looks pretty good. He must have a good foundation. If he didn't wear a mask, he would be a handsome guy." Hyena looked at Xia Li who came out and whistled.

"How are you doing? Are you still getting used to it?" Tianzang asked.

"Well, it's pretty good." After Xia Li put on the human skin mask, she only felt a little cold on her face, but she didn't feel particularly uncomfortable.

"Okay, let's start taking action." Tianzang said immediately without any nonsense.

"yes!"

The next moment, the four members of Tianzang's team quickly left the ANBU and arrived at the mission location. They saw the team over there, but they had not yet started.

Xia Li also looked at this team. There were many warriors in the team. They should also be a guard team and should be from the Kingdom of Iron.

Of course, there are some ordinary people who should be returning to the Iron Kingdom. But unfortunately, what they don't know is that this transport team is not safe. Of course, even if ordinary people like them go back normally... it is not safe. After all, This is the background of this world, there is no absolutely safe place.

"Captain, I'm going over first." Xia Li said at this time.

"Well, be careful." Tianzang said.

"good."

Xia Li nodded and looked at the largest manned carriage over there. That was the location where he wanted to protect his target. The next moment, his figure disappeared and entered the carriage quietly. .

The layout in the carriage is relatively simple, but there are many places where children can hide, which should have been arranged in advance. At this time, the master craftsman and his grandson have not come in yet, so there is no one here.

Xia Li listened to the noise outside, closed her eyes silently, and entered a state of emptiness and darkness. She probably spent a lot of time in the carriage these days, but she still couldn't let go of what she could exercise, but she also had to Just stay in good enough shape.

Who knows when the enemy will attack?

After a while, Xia Li heard someone finally coming in from the carriage, and slowly opened her eyes. She saw an old man with gray hair but full of energy, and a covert twelve or thirteen-year-old man holding his hand. young man.

"Are you the ninja that Konoha arranged to protect us? So young? It's not sure whether you can beat me, how can you protect us?" Xia Li, the grandson of Master Craftsman, seems to be called Craftsman Toruya, curiously asked.

Although the words were unpleasant, there was no hint of malice in his tone, as if he was just out of pure curiosity.

Xia Li was not angry either, but the next moment his figure appeared directly in front of Toshin Tetsuya. He also put his hands on his hair, rubbed it, and said, "Since Konoha sent me to protect you, then you have to Believe in my strength."

Jiang Xinche also felt the touch on his head, and Xia Li suddenly appeared in front of him, his mouth wide open, and then his eyes also showed a strong light, which was curiosity.

When the craftsman next to him saw this scene, he also smiled and said.

"I'm sorry, the kid is not sensible, I have to rely on you for the rest of the journey."

Xia Li nodded silently and said nothing.
