Naruto: The Primal Hyuga Pierces the Shinobi World.

As they walked out of the Hokage's office, Captain Shimi Aburame handed the mission sheet to Might Guy beside her.

While Might Guy was reviewing the documents, Aburame Shiki said to the others, "After we disperse, everyone should go back and prepare the ninja tools you need for battle."

"Although this mission is not very complicated, everyone should still make full preparations."

"Especially you, Shinichi, this is your first mission, so you need to be more careful with your preparations."

"Ninja tools, some simple changes of clothes, and a reasonable amount of money."

"If things go smoothly, the task should take three to five days. Make the necessary preparations."

Aburame Shiki was very meticulous, and the person he gave instructions to was Shinichi, a newcomer on his first mission.

Although Shinichi Hyuga is now a special Jonin, he has no mission experience. Shinichi is the youngest member of the team, which is why he is the most worried about him.

At the same time, Shiki Aburame was not optimistic about Shinichi's combat performance in future missions. It wasn't that she felt Shinichi's combat strength was unworthy of the title of Special Jonin, but in her opinion, Shinichi was too young, and would probably falter when facing a real battlefield that required bloodshed.

He had seen this kind of thing before in his life. Outstanding graduates of the ninja academy were unable to exert their abilities on the battlefield due to fear and other reasons.

Those graduates were at least eleven or twelve years old, not Shinichi's age...

Although her heart was full of worries, Shiki Aburame understood that this was the inevitable path for a ninja.

Moreover, he had no say in Shinichi's development. This task was chosen by the Fourth Hokage and approved by Hiashi Hyuga. Even if Shiki Aburame opposed it in his heart, it would be meaningless.

At this point, all Shiki Aburame can do is to soothe Shinichi Hyuga's various emotions that may arise during the mission.

While Aburame Shiki was speaking, the mission document had already been passed between Guy and Uchiha Shisui before being given to Shinichi.

This was the first time Shinichi had received a mission assignment, and he was naturally curious. He took it and read it carefully.

The task description was very detailed, much more so than the description given at the water gate.

The document details the mission objective, the bandit gang, and also includes ability diagrams of the three rogue ninjas.

The three leaders of the bandit gang were once Konoha ninjas, and there are naturally records about them in Konoha's ninja archives.

Imprint, patience, body, illusion, wisdom, strength, speed, essence.

When assessing a ninja's abilities, the village breaks it down into eight aspects. This allows others to intuitively understand the opponent's abilities and characteristics, and to more accurately evaluate the strength of both sides.

The maximum score for each stat is 10. For the vast majority of ninjas, this evaluation mechanism is perfectly adequate. Only a very small number of ninjas are able to transcend this evaluation mechanism.

The mission log included illustrations of the abilities of several rogue ninjas.

All three individuals have very balanced abilities, with the highest overall score being only 36, while the other two scored 34 and 32 respectively.

In addition, the mission log also detailed the number of missions they completed in the village when they were still Konoha ninjas.

Shinichi glanced at them and saw that the vast majority of the missions the three had completed were D-level and C-level, with more than fifty missions in total, which was quite a lot. They also had single-digit number of B-level and A-level missions, which could be considered as a lot of experience.

Considering that the opponents were ninjas who had survived the meat grinder of the Third Shinobi World War, Shinichi slightly raised his assessment of their abilities.

If nothing unexpected happens, during the final battle, his strength should exceed the power book by a little.

Upon reading the mission briefing to the very end, the mission location surprised Shinichi somewhat:

"Jialan City?"

"Aren't they a gang of bandits? Why is the mission location in a town?"

Zhen Yi looked puzzled. In his mind, bandits should be hiding in some mountain valley, building strongholds and robbing people. How could they appear in a town?

Could it be... that this city is frequently looted?

"The mission location is correct. This group of people slaughtered nearly two hundred people in a village a month ago."

"They must have sensed they were about to be wiped out, so they went into hiding."

"The village also received a tip from the villagers and discovered that this group of people were hiding in Garan City."

"Relevant information is at the end of the scroll."

Shinichi nodded silently upon hearing this, skipped the middle part, quickly scrolled to the end, and sure enough, he saw the information that Aburame Shiki had mentioned.

"A village massacre, huh..."

Seeing this information about the notorious gang of thieves, Shinichi couldn't help but sigh inwardly, feeling that he had taken another step closer to the dark side of the world.

While they were only three Chunin-level rogue ninjas, they were capable of massacring the entire village after leaving the military group that was Konoha.

Rogue ninjas are far too lethal to ordinary people; in the ninja world, ordinary people are no different from weeds.

At this critical juncture of the Third Shinobi World War, countless rogue ninjas have emerged around the world. These unproductive ninjas will wreak havoc on countless regions and harm ordinary people in order to survive.

It's simply...unimaginable.

Living in Konoha, Shinichi didn't feel much of the danger and chaos of the world. However, when a small corner of the world was revealed to him, the darkness within it was still quite shocking to Shinichi.

"Have all the mission objectives been clearly defined?"

"Meet at the village entrance in two hours."

Don't be late.

After reading the mission letter, Zhen handed it back to You Nu Zhiwei, who took it and put it in her pocket before addressing the crowd.

Seeing the team members nod, Aburame Shiki also softly called out "Disperse" and quickly left.

Shinichi didn't linger there. In the next instant, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to his room in the Hyuga clan.

After quickly packing a few clothes and ninja tools into his backpack, Shinichi slung the bag over his shoulder and walked out of the room.

Just then, Hanako, who was in the next room, seemed to have heard the commotion in Shinichi's room. She came over with Hinata in her arms to check on him and was somewhat surprised to see Shinichi, who had just come out.

"When did you get back?"

"Are they getting ready to go out?"

"I heard about it from your father yesterday. You're going out of the village to carry out a mission today."

"Are we leaving so soon? Aren't you going to have lunch before you go?"

Hanako approached Shinichi, glanced at the bag behind him, and asked him with some concern.

"There probably won't be time for lunch; the team needs to assemble at the village entrance."

"Before I leave, I need to go to the tribe to get some explosive tags."

Shinichi approached Hanako, and while talking, he waved his finger in front of Hinata's eyes, prompting Hinata to reach out and grab it. He then smiled and withdrew his hand.

Watching her son tease her daughter, Hanako smiled slightly, then said softly:

"Please be careful."

"The success or failure of the mission is irrelevant; the most important thing is to return safely."

Hanako's concerned words touched Shinichi's heart. After a moment of contemplation, Shinichi nodded emphatically.

"Don't worry."

"I will be very careful."

"And my teammates are very reliable, there won't be any problems."
