Naruto: The Primal Hyuga Pierces the Shinobi World.

"Such a fast teleportation technique..."

Shinichi Hyuga activated his Byakugan and looked in the direction the man in black had left, but found nothing. He continued to zoom out, but still couldn't see anyone suspicious. The opponent's Body Flicker Technique was much faster than Shinichi Hyuga had expected.

He couldn't help but sigh. Hyuga Shinichi felt that the world was so vast that he had just encountered a ninja during a mission who possessed such great strength.

"The enemy has left."

Shinichi Hyuga reminded Shii Aburame, who was still on guard. Shii was naturally focused on the powerful enemy he had just encountered. The moment the enemy disappeared, he thought that the enemy would continue to attack in some way.

It wasn't until Shinichi reminded her that Zhiwei realized the other person had already left.

A few beads of cold sweat appeared on Zhiwei's forehead. She turned around and saw Shinichi standing with Kai, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan plays a crucial role in battle. With Shinichi present, there's no need to worry about sudden attacks from powerful enemies.

Zhiwei was merely "wiping out" a human trafficking group on the side of his mission, but he unexpectedly encountered such a powerful ninja during the process. The sudden appearance of the ninja really startled Zhiwei, who broke out in a cold sweat.

"You've come, Shinichi."

"How's the situation inside?"

Zhiwei quickly adjusted her mindset, put away the kunai in her hand, and went to Shinichi and Kai's side, while also asking about the situation in the dungeon.

"Shisui was saving people, and I came here as soon as I sensed the fighting."

"What happened to that ninja who left?"

For some reason, the man in black gave Shinichi a sense of familiarity, but Shinichi was certain that he had never seen that ninja before. However, for some reason, the sense of familiarity was just so strong.

So intensely, even after the other person left, Shinichi couldn't help but want to find out who they were.

"I don't know, that ninja came with this guy."

"Hello, is this your bodyguard?"

Zhiwei's previous sentence was in response to Shinichi Hyuga, but his next sentence was already questioning the middle-aged man in fine clothes who was being controlled by Kai.

The other person glanced at the Konoha headband that Zhiwei was wearing, and couldn't help but swallow hard. When asked the question, he shook his head repeatedly.

"No...no!!"

"He's my boss!"

"Please, please let me go! I don't know anything! I was just following the boss's orders to deliver goods!"

"I'm just an ordinary freight merchant, I don't know anything else!!!"

Seeing the Konoha ninja in front of him, the middle-aged man probably guessed that he must have encountered some trouble. His generous employer was probably being targeted by Konoha.

It is true that the administration of the Land of Fire is handled by the Daimyo's government, but as the largest military group in the country, Konoha Village also enjoys a great deal of autonomy.

There are some matters that don't even need to be reported to the Daimyo's office; Konoha's ninjas have the right to make their own "discretions." When it comes to things like human trafficking, Konoha's ninjas are perfectly capable of making their own decisions.

Although the middle-aged man kept saying that he was just an ordinary traveling merchant, in reality, this was not the first time he had worked for an employer.

He was indeed a merchant who transported goods, but he also knew very well what the goods he was transporting actually were.

Do you think we'd believe that?

"But it's alright, I believe you'll soon tell me everything you know."

If it were just a simple human trafficking case, Zhiwei wouldn't be so concerned about it now.

However, the nature of the incident completely changed when ninjas appeared.

Aburame Shiki keenly sensed that this matter was not as simple as she had imagined.

Although this matter was unrelated to their mission, the appearance of a powerful ninja of unknown identity within the Land of Fire, who was also involved in human trafficking, was something the Konoha ninjas could not simply ignore.

Regardless of this middle-aged man's identity, taking him back for interrogation would certainly not be a problem.

Upon hearing what Yu Nu Zhiwei said, the middle-aged man was so frightened that he collapsed to his seat. Although he begged for mercy repeatedly, the people present had no intention of letting him go.

The group waited in the warehouse for a long time, but no one else came. Shinichi and the others realized that it was time to wrap things up.

Using the Flying Thunder God Technique, Shinichi Hyuga delivered the abducted orphans directly to the temple where they were staying.

Abbot Wuzhen, still asleep, was woken up by his disciples. When he saw the children who had been brought to the temple, his expression was quite interesting, a mixture of surprise and joy.

After chanting a Buddhist prayer, he quickly arranged for the monks to settle the children down.

As for Zhiwei, as the captain, he had already written this matter into the report and used the Ninja Hawk to transmit the information back to the village.

In addition to reporting the existence of the strange ninja to the village, he also asked the village to send someone to take over the matter.

Those abducted children need to have their identities confirmed. Those who can be returned should be returned. Children whose identities cannot be confirmed or whose biological parents cannot be found should be sent to Konoha's orphanage for upbringing.

There were many follow-up matters, and Shinichi and his team could no longer be involved.

That night, while the Zhiwei team was busy with the cleanup work, a fire broke out in the slums west of Garan City. Perhaps because the area was full of houses, the fire was not extinguished until the early hours of the morning.

However, Shinichi and the others did not pay attention to this matter.

The next morning, the village's secret agents arrived in Garan City to hand over the mission to Zhiwei and the others. The surviving traffickers and the middle-aged buyer were handed over to the secret agents, and the abducted children were also taken over by them.

After a busy night, Shinichi and the others were finally able to get a good rest for a day.

Perhaps it was the news of the Konoha ninjas appearing in Garan Castle that spread quickly, or perhaps the fire alerted some people.

The Zhiwei squad, tasked with tracking down the rogue ninja, conducted covert investigations in the city for several days without any results. At this stage of the mission, it was no longer possible to continue.

Shortly after reporting the details to the village, Zhiwei and his group also received orders to evacuate.

It wasn't until he received the latest orders that Shinichi belatedly realized that his first mission as a "debut" had ended in failure!

This development was completely unexpected by Shinichi.

Although Shinichi wasn't the type to be arrogant, the fact that his first mission as a ninja ended in failure left him somewhat disappointed and bewildered.

The perceptive Shisui clearly sensed Shinichi's disappointment, and the slightly older Shisui went to Shinichi's side to comfort him:

"Ninja missions are never smooth sailing."

"Actually, this result isn't so bad, is it?"

"At least, our team can all return to the village safely."

Shisui's words revealed a lot of information.

Shisui, who rose to the rank of Chunin during the Third Shinobi World War, had clearly carried out numerous missions, and judging from his tone, he had probably faced death more than once...

Sensing the sadness in Shisui's heart, Shinichi nodded silently and cheered himself up.

After using the Flying Thunder God Technique to lead the team back to the village, the group went to the Hokage's office to return the mission assignment.

Minato did not blame everyone for the mission failure. Instead, he comforted them for a few words and then let them leave, leaving only Aburame Shiki behind.
