At the same time, after Li Yaoxiang left the Hokage Residence. He escorted the arrival of Uchiha Itachi.
It was just that after he heard there was someone specifically naming him and asking him to complete the mission, he had a little trouble.
People at the mission reception: “Uchiha Itachi, you should know that the village rules like this. No matter how good your results are, Genin can't go out on his own to do missions. You must choose your teammates.”
Uchiha Itachi has just opened his Sharingan.
That's when his team-mates were killed recently.
At the same time, he was also disappointed by his father's attitude. Because his father, Uchiha Fugaku, was completely indifferent to the death of his team-mates, and he was proud that his son had opened the Sharingan so quickly. Because of this, Itachi's current temperament of Uchiha had become somewhat cold.
“Not needed. I can complete the mission myself.”
People at the mission reception desk: “But, this is completely outside the rules...”.
Without waiting for the person at the reception desk of duty, suddenly one more person appeared in the room. This person was also wearing the standard high-necked clothing of the Uchiha Clan and 3-corner protective gear.
This person was Uchiha Shisui.
As soon as Uchiha Shisui appeared, she came behind Uchiha Itachi, patted his shoulder, and then said to the person at the mission reception desk: “I and Itachi will carry out this mission together. It should be okay, right?”
After Uchiha Itachi saw the person was Shisui, his indifferent skin also softened: “Kakak Shisui!”
The two looked at each other. He's nodding. Then, he looked towards the reception of the mission, waiting for his answer.
The result is very clear.
With the lead of Uchiha Shisui, the people at the mission reception will not look for trouble and offend the people of the Uchiha Clan: “Hahaha, alright. I'll send you a message here. ”
Two people left the mission reception. Walk side by side on the street.
…….
Shisui: “Itachi, I understand how you feel. But because our best friends have sacrificed their lives for you. Then we should live better. Along with their part of the job. Together to protect this beautiful home. I hope you can understand this truth.”
Compared to others. Uchiha Itachi's attitude towards Shisui was clearly much better. He didn't answer. But he was seriously thinking about what Big Brother Shisui said.
Shisui don't bother anymore.
After a while, Shisui continued saying: “I will not carry out this mission with you. I will hide in the darkness and observe closely. I hope your appearance will not disappoint me.”
……
Early the next day, Li Yaoxiang packed her clothes. Then he went to wait at the mission reception.
It didn't take long.
He immediately saw Uchiha Itachi as a child and came here on time.
Seeing Uchiha Itachi, Li Yaoxiang immediately went up: “Seeing your clothes, you should be Uchiha Itachi? Hello, I am your client this time, Li Yaoxiang. Happy to work with you.”
Li Yaoxiang reached out his right hand and wanted to shake hands with Uchiha Itachi.
Li Yaoxiang thought he would be rejected. Instead, Itachi Uchiha really shook hands with him and thanked him kindly.
“Halo, I'm Uchiha Itachi. Thank you for trusting me, and for appointing me to take on this mission. I'll get you to your destination safely.”
Li Yaoxiang was familiar with the original series. But it is very clear that during this period, Uchiha Itachi, who had experienced all the deaths of his team-mates, became much colder in character. This made him wonder why Uchiha Itachi was so friendly to him.
“Good!” After some compliments, Li Yaoxiang continued, “Eh...., are you the only one?”
It was strange to see Uchiha Itachi alone.
As far as he knew, according to Konoha's rules, Itachi Uchiha, who was still a Genin, should not undertake missions out of the village alone.
Uchiha Itachi said with a smile: “Quiet, Mr. Li. Your mission is just a C-Rank Guards Mission. I can finish it myself. There will be no problems.”
Hearing Uchiha Itachi's words, Li Yaoxiang was still a little worried. It was not that he did not believe in Uchiha Itachi's abilities. But more worried about Jonin hiding in the distance, secretly protecting the Uchiha Itachi Genin.
In order to avoid suspicion from others, before leaving this ninja, Li Yaoxiang decided to continue maintaining the appearance of ‘tulus’nya.
“Ha ha ha! You are a genius ninja in the village. How can I be restless? Don't misunderstand me. I'm just curious. I'm specifically entrusting you to accept this mission. I just want to get to know you further. I hope you don't mind. ”
Uchiha Itachi laughed, saying he didn't mind.
The reason why his attitude towards Li Yaoxiang was so friendly was because he did not want to disappoint Shisui. He knew that Shisui around him was watching him. Therefore, facing ‘customer’ Li Yaoxiang, she did her best to show a friendly attitude.
After a short exchange, the two went outside the village.
……
Konoha Village, Root Base.
It is underground in a hidden place in Konoha Village. All around him was covered with huge roots. The air was filled with the thick smell of moist mud.
At this time, Shimura Danzo was at the base, handling some of his daily official duties.
At this time, Root Ninja with a cough came to Shimura Danzo and reported to him: “Cough! Cough! Cough! Lord Danzo, just now someone reported that a villager had the approval of the Third Hokage. Approval to leave the village.”
Shimura Danzo has ceased his official duties. His expression became a little angry, asking: “Hiruzen? Is he getting older and more confused? How could he let people leave the village casually? … Who left the village?”
Ninja root: “Cough! Cough! Cough! His name is Li Yaoxiang..”.
Soon after this, Root Ninja, who was coughing from time to time, told him about Li Yaoxiang's message and what happened recently. Even about Li Yaoxiang assigning ninjas to do Escort Missions for him.
Shimura Danzo's face became grim after hearing that. He did not care whether Li Yaoxiang was innocent in this matter or not. As long as there is little chance of that being ‘the unstable factor’, Shimura Danzo would rather kill the wrong one than let it go! Moreover, as long as Li Yaoxiang died once he left the village, the people of Konoha would know how dangerous the outside world was! They would not all think of leaving Konoha!
“Who took over this mission?”
“That Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui.”
Hearing that these two were taking on the task, Shimura Danzo's face became somewhat ugly. He knew very well that the two of them had not been able to move. However with a hint of carelessness, the Uchiha Clan was able to immediately make…
Before the village was ready, he did not want to take this risk.
“No need to deal with the people from the Uchiha Clan. Send someone to stop them for a moment to see if there is a chance to kill that Li Yaoxiang. If you really let him escape to the city .. then forget it. ”
The reason why there was such a choice was because as long as he entered the city of the Land of Fire, Danzo would not be able to move that easily anymore. Otherwise, it would be a problem for him if someone investigated it.
You need to know that in Ninja Village at this time, even if you are qualified to become a shadow in the village, you still need the approval of Daimyo*.
