Naruto: What do you mean you're from the Head-Touching Village?

Early the next morning.

Akatsuki Shun was woken up by Tsunade while he was fast asleep.

"Hey kid, wake up! We're out of money."

"......OK."

After spending ten minutes going to the casino next door to withdraw some money, the two successfully set off.

"You brat, what are you thinking about?"

On the way, Tsunade noticed that Shun Akihime was looking up at the sky, as if he was thinking about something.

"I'm thinking of muting it."

"Shizune? Why are you thinking about her? Shouldn't you be thinking about the daughter of the Yuhi Makoto family?"

Tsunade stared intently at Shun Akihime, trying to see some gossip on his face.

Autumn Sun simply sighed.

"No, I'm envious of Shizune. She doesn't have to take care of you when we're on missions. It feels so cool."

"You wretched brat, how could you say such a thing to your teacher!"

Tsunade intended to punch Akihito Shun, but her fist stopped in mid-air, and her expression immediately became serious.

"We've arrived."

At this moment, the two had reached the mountainside of a desolate mountain, and in their sight, there was a mountain stronghold not far away.

After exchanging a glance, the two jumped up into the tree to observe.

"I deliberately chose this mission. The mission is simple: disperse this band of bandits so they stop threatening the surrounding villages. Of course, you can also kill them all."

"According to the intelligence, they are just a group of ordinary mountain bandits. But you shouldn't count on intelligence about a group of ordinary villagers. They can be so arrogant in this area for so long. There may be ninjas among these mountain bandits. As for what level of ninjas they are, it is uncertain. But you can rest assured that there will be no Jonin."

"Since the mission is mainly to train you, you can either wait here for the night attack or go now, it's up to you."

After Tsunade finished speaking, she looked at Shun Akihime, waiting for his choice.

After a short period of thought, Qiu Ri Shun calmly gave his answer: "Then let's finish this quickly and go back. Let's go now."

Akira Shun's confident demeanor brought a smile to Tsunade's lips: "You're quite confident, but as someone who's been there, let me give you some advice. In situations like this, where there are many opponents, it's best to use assassination to resolve the situation."

"Don't worry, Tsunade-sensei. I'm very good at assassination. In fact, my Chidori was originally designed for assassination."

"..."

Akira Shun's serious expression left Tsunade speechless for a moment.

Chidori?

Assassination?

Tsunade thought of the dense crackling sound of electricity when Shun used Chidori, which was not much different from Shun shouting "I'm going!" However, she seemed to have gotten used to Shun's speaking style, so Tsunade didn't say anything more.

"...As long as you're happy, just be careful. I'll be watching from the side the whole time, and I'll come to your rescue immediately if anything happens."

That's what she said, but Tsunade was actually a little nervous at this moment. She knew very well that she was afraid of blood, and in this kind of fierce battle, it was impossible not to bleed.

At this moment, her whole body tensed up. If something really happened to Akira Shun, she had already planned to take a few stabs and forcibly take Akira Shun away while she was still fainting at the sight of blood.

Autumn Shun nodded and lowered his body.

"Then I'll leave it to Tsunade-sensei."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Rishun's figure disappeared into the tree branches.

As Tsunade watched Akatsuki rush forward, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by a hint of worry.

She carefully selected this mission for Akiga Shun because there was a possibility of encountering ninjas, which introduced uncertainty into the mission. Such uncertainty is not uncommon in missions, and she wanted Akiga Shun to become familiar with how to handle emergencies.

Secondly, and most importantly, Akira Shun has never killed anyone!

As a ninja, especially someone with a talent like Akiga Shun, he is destined to kill and go to the battlefield. Tsunade does not want Akiga Shun to kill for the first time on the battlefield, as he may become unaccustomed to it. On the battlefield, even a moment of unaccustomedness could cost him his life.

Tsunade didn't want the people she valued to die on the battlefield, so she wanted Akihito Shun to experience this feeling in advance. These bandits who were causing trouble everywhere were the perfect whetstone for Akihito Shun!

In the mountain stronghold, two bandits came out chatting and laughing, seemingly preparing to go on patrol.

However, the two had just opened the door and taken their first step.

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered as one of them was cleaved in two by Akiga Shun's White Fang Ninja Blade!

Warm blood sprayed onto Akira Shun's face. It was Akira Shun's first time killing someone, but he didn't feel much emotional fluctuation; it was just a novel experience.

"Ah~"

At this moment, another bandit also reacted, his mouth wide open, letting out a low shout. Before he could shout out loud, his head had already flown off.

"Two now."

Autumn Shun memorized the number, then gripped the White Fang Blade and charged into the mountain stronghold.

Some bandits who were gathered around the campfire, waiting for the food in the pot to cook, turned around after hearing the sound and were startled to see a blood-covered man carrying a short knife rushing towards them.

However, they reacted quickly and grabbed the weapons around them to begin their defense.

These bandits' weapons were quite ordinary, just common iron weapons, not even in the same league as the White Fang Ninja.

As a bandit swung his sword at Akiga Shun, Akiga Shun began channeling chakra into the White Fang Ninja, shattering the bandit and his sword together!

He quickly scanned the surroundings and saw that about eight bandits were attacking from different angles.

Autumn Sun, unhurried, began to quickly form hand seals.

Three shadow clones appeared beside him.

He charged toward the surrounding bandits, preventing Qiu Rishun from being surrounded.

"Damn it! They're ninjas! Konoha ninjas!"

After seeing Akira Shun use ninjutsu, a bandit also noticed the headband on his head and quickly shouted.

His shout significantly dampened the morale of the surrounding bandits.

There's no way around it; the difference between ninjas and ordinary people is simply enormous, and Konoha Village is renowned throughout the ninja world as one of the Five Great Ninja Villages.

These ordinary mountain bandits had a natural fear of the ninjas from the five great ninja villages.

"search!"

At that moment, a whooshing sound came, and the instant Akira heard the sound, his body moved on its own.

He pulled three shuriken from his ninja tool pouch with his right hand and casually shot them toward the direction from which the sound of wind breaking came.

"Ping ping ping!"

After three consecutive sounds of ninja tools colliding, the sixth shuriken fell to the ground at the same time.

"Don't panic! This kid doesn't look very old, probably just a genin who recently graduated from the Ninja Academy. He doesn't know much ninjutsu. With so many of you, you can easily kill him with a flurry of blows!"

A bald man with a scar on his face stood on the wall and shouted at the bandits. His shout did manage to barely maintain the bandits' morale.

However, the bald man ran away as soon as he finished speaking.

You don't know any ninjutsu?

Killed by hacking to death?

Are you kidding me!

He was a true ninja, and with his keen eyesight, he could naturally tell that Akihi Shun was holding a chakra blade and using the B-rank Shadow Clone Technique.

Who would fight him?

They'd just hack you to death. Even a hundred ordinary bandits wouldn't be able to do any damage to you!

Bye-Bye!

Akira Shun immediately recognized that this man was the leader of the bandits, a genuine ninja, though probably just an ordinary genin.

He let his shadow clone deal with the other small fry, then instantly followed.

However, the bandit leader was clever. After running into a cave, he somehow managed to use a mechanism that caused a three-person-high boulder to fall down, locking Akira out of the cave before he could enter.

Upon seeing this, Tsunade smiled slightly. If nothing unexpected happened, there must be a secret passage in this cave that would allow the bandit leader to escape smoothly.

Instantly appearing beside the large rock, Tsunade looked at it and laughed, "Chidori consumes too much chakra. This is a perfect opportunity to teach you my signature ninjutsu..."

Before he could finish speaking, Akihi Shun had already completed the ninja replacement.
