Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 104 The Dejected Crow

"Chiga, Kusanagi is right. They do have the Earth-type scroll. With the Heaven-type scroll we have, as long as we collect the Human-type scroll, we can head to the tower in the center of the Death Forest."

At this moment, seeing that Chiga had finished dealing with his personal matters, Might Guy stepped forward and handed Chiga the Earth Scroll he had obtained from Kusanagi.

Ebisu, recalling what the Grass Ninja had said before, excitedly told Chiga, "Chiga, the Grass Ninja mentioned that there's a group of ninja from the Land of Craftsmen ahead, and they're carrying 'human-shaped' scrolls."

"It seems that all we need to do is catch up with the ninjas of the Land of Craftsmen!"

Upon hearing this, Chiga did indeed think it was a good suggestion, but still shook his head and said, "Although I don't think the Grass Ninja is lying, I've decided not to pursue that group of Craftsman Country ninjas."

"Huh? If the opponent could become the target of the Grass Ninja, then the ninja team from the Land of Craftsmen must not be very strong. Chiga, you were able to deal with the Grass Ninja so easily. Dealing with the ninjas from the Land of Craftsmen should be a piece of cake for you too."

Ebisu asked, puzzled.

Under the questioning gazes of Might Guy and Ebisu, Chiga explained, "You should remember that the Third Hokage gave me a task back in the Hokage's office, right?"

Might Guy and Ebisu then remembered that the Third Hokage had mentioned a special mission that required their cooperation.

"Is this a task that can only be completed through this exam?"

Upon hearing this, Matt Day asked.

Chiga nodded and said, "Yes, it's a B-rank assassination mission. In this Chunin Exam, the Third Hokage needs me to kill three examinees: Kari from the Land of Earth, Ichigo, and Maki from the Land of Wind."

"These are the profiles of the three of them."

After saying that, Chiga took out some documents from her ninja tool bag and handed them to the two of them.

After reviewing the three individuals' information, the two understood the Third Hokage's meaning.

Assassinating talented ninjas from other countries is a common practice in many nations.

However, such tasks are usually assigned to the secret service of each country.

It's probably because of the Chunin Exams that this opportunity is so rare.

Even if other countries find out, they won't have anything to say in terms of criticism.

After all, we're not as skilled as them, and we should admit it!

Of the three exams, this one is the best opportunity.

The first part was a written test, so there was no chance to actually do any hands-on work.

However, there is also a chance to kill in the third round.

But that's an individual competition, so whether we'll actually meet in the competition is another matter.

The third match will be attended by the Third Kazekage, the Third Hokage, and the Daimyo from various countries.

It was a grand affair, and the referee was also a powerful ninja.

She will try to stop the opponent if they are certain to die, unless Chiga can kill them instantly.

Moreover, killing the genius in front of the opponent's shadow was truly a slap in the face.

"Assassination! We'll definitely cooperate with you, Chiga, to complete the mission!"

As ninjas, missions are their primary focus, and the Chunin Exams are held every year.

If not this year, then next year.

To be honest, neither of them had ever received an assassination mission like this before.

Both of them were excited as they accepted such a task for the first time.

"A B-rank mission? It's been years since I, Might Guy, have accepted such a high-level mission!"

"I will certainly not let down the Third Hokage's trust in me! Burn, my youth!"

Even Matt Day was so excited that he stood up, waving his fists, tears streaming down his face.

Chiga: "." If you were to reveal your Eight Gates Formation, you could take on not only B-rank missions, but even S-rank missions.

"Alright, let's finish this assassination mission first."

"As for passing the second exam, don't worry. Perhaps the scroll we need to assassinate is among those people we're searching for!"

Upon hearing this, Might Guy and Ebisu chuckled in response.

Then, Matt Day thought for a moment and said, "However, finding three people in such a vast Death Forest in five days is a bit difficult!"

"Leave the finding to me!"

Chiga smiled, then took out a scroll, unrolled it, and summoned his crow.

Dozens of crows landed in front of Chiga.

The leader is Crow Feather, which stood on Chiga's shoulder after being summoned by Chiga; this was its designated spot.

Chiga reached out to stroke the crow feather, but saw that the crow feather pecked his palm.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you so irritable lately?"

Crow Feather let out a disgruntled "Caw!"

"What? You've lost your erection?!"

Chiga was taken aback, then remembered that Yaba had been frightened by him twice and was somewhat traumatized.

They've been much faster each time they mate!

To comfort Karasu, Chiga couldn't help but say with concern, "Karasu, I heard that the Inuzuka clan recently produced a kind of beast-specific strength pill. Eating it can not only strengthen your body but also restore your virility. I'm planning to buy you a few."

"Huh?"

"Seriously, I'll go buy it as soon as the exams are over!"

Upon hearing this, Ya Yu's eyes lit up immediately; he could already picture the mother crow howling beneath him.

"quack!"

"Gah!"

Upon hearing this, not only Ya Yu, but all the other crows also went into a frenzy.

This time, Chiga summoned a male crow, because most of the female crows were pregnant, and some had to take care of their newborn crows.

And sure enough, with Chiga's deliberate efforts, the flock of crows has multiplied rapidly, now numbering a thousand, more than doubling in number.

Of course, the consequence of this arduous reproduction is that the male crows become listless and lose their patriarchal authority.

Upon hearing about this powerful pill, their eyes immediately lit up.

"Okay, okay, I have them all! Alright?"

Hearing the cawing of the crows, Chiga reluctantly agreed, feeling sorry for them.

It seems a large expense is unavoidable, but fortunately, the rewards from two S-rank missions are a safety net, plus I managed to swindle some money from Tsunade.

Otherwise, Chiga would really have to worry about money.

However, he already felt that the crows weren't multiplying fast enough, so now that he had such a good thing, he was naturally willing to spend money to buy it.

It should be noted that the power of his self-developed Crow Secret Technique depends on the number of crows.

If the number exceeds ten thousand, and Chiga has enough chakra, he would even dare to try to massacre the entire village.

After chatting with the crows for a while, Chiga got down to business. He took out photos of Kari, Ichigo, and Maki and instructed the crows, "Find them!"

After memorizing the three people's appearances, the crows flew into the sky and then scattered.

"We'll rest here for the night and wait for my crows to find them before we move on."

Chiga looked up at the sky and realized that it was getting dark.

"yes!"

Might and Ebisu agreed.
