Mei Terumi naturally couldn't hear the complaints in Tachibana Jianchuan's heart, she just thought that as the acting captain, she had done a good job in calming the mentality of her two teammates at the moment.

Then he began to call the two of them to move towards the pirate camp.

However, in order to bypass observation at the port, the shoal where the fishing boat was docked was a little far from the port where the pirate camp was located.

The three of them moved quickly through the forest, but Zabuza was still thinking about the two ninjas who were suspected of impersonating Anbu.

After hesitating for a moment, Zabuza spoke first.

"Those two people just now seemed to have a deep hostility towards us."

Jianchuan Ju, who was concentrating on his journey and jumping onto the next tree, was a little surprised at Zabuza's sharpness.

"Indeed, the enemy initially intended to launch a surprise attack when we landed."

Jianchuan Ju was very sure of this, as he had seen other ninjas in the village before.

When those passerby ninjas have no hostility or desire to attack you, they will not trigger the 'danger prediction' alarm, and it will not be such a strong warning.

If they had not discovered the other party in advance and taken precautions first, they might have been attacked by the other party's ninjutsu the moment the ship docked.

"And now that I think about it, the other party does not look like an Anbu ninja. Almost all Anbu ninjas in the village carry swords, and their clothes have hoods to hide their identities."

Mei Terumi joined in the conversation as she walked forward.

But what she said was something Jianchuan Ju had not noticed before. As for hiding his identity, Jianchuan Ju was too embarrassed to directly complain about his village to his teammates.

"So, what is the other party's purpose in coming to this remote island and pretending to be an Anbu?"

This time, neither Mei Terumi nor Tachibana Kengawa could answer Zabuza's questions.

Although he had some guesses in his heart, Jianchuan Ju did not speak them out at this time. Instead, he quickened his pace.

"Okay, it's Mr. Qing's job to track down those two people. We can just focus on the rescue."

In the end, it was Mei Terumi who ended the conversation.

Although the three were discussing the two ninjas, it did not delay their journey.

They gradually slowed down their pace until they approached a low hill in front of the camp.

It was a little different from what they had expected. It was clearly past midnight, and they thought that even if there were some pirates in the camp, they should have rested and fallen asleep by now.

But there were actually many figures moving around in the camp below the hill.

With the help of the light from the torches in the camp, the three of them looked down carefully. The most eye-catching thing was an open space like a training ground surrounded by a group of houses.

At this moment, there were more than 5 children fighting each other in the open space, and at the edge of the open space, there were several pirates in shabby clothes standing in twos and threes, pointing at these children. The three even saw a child who was estimated to be only 6 or years old, who was stabbed in the vitals by his opponent's kunai and fell to the ground with injuries and life or death unknown.

One of the pirates who was on guard nearby walked up to the fallen child very skillfully and picked him up with one hand, as if he was throwing away garbage, and threw him to a corner at the edge of the venue.

At this time Jianchuan Ju also noticed that in that corner there were several children piled up in a mess, their lives or deaths unknown, and no one was paying attention to them.

While doing all this, the pirate never stopped chatting and laughing with his companions.

The child who had just defeated his opponent threw away the kunai in his hand regardless of his injuries. He staggered to a table with food on the other side of the open space, grabbed the food and swallowed it in big mouthfuls.

This caused the pirates to laugh wildly.

When the other children who were still fighting saw this scene, they only paused for less than a second before immediately continuing their fierce fight.

"Is this... a battle... training? Are the pirates selecting backup personnel?" Mei Terumi, who witnessed it all, spoke with anger in her voice.

Jianchuan Ju hurriedly held down Terumi Mei's shoulders to prevent her from being too impulsive. While holding down Terumi Mei's palms, he could clearly feel her slight tremors.

Jianchuan Ju naturally knew that this was not fear, but a trembling of anger.

"Calm down! Pirates are desperate people who don't think about the future, let alone spend time training their children."

Hearing this, Mei Terumi suppressed the anger in her heart and looked at the pirates below.

Zabuza also spoke up: "Those pirates in charge of guarding are very weak, they are basically ordinary people."

The three of them were not too far away from the camp at this time. It was not difficult to see the strength of these pirates from their figures and movements. It could even be said that most of them were not as good as the students who had not yet graduated from the Kirigakure Ninja School.

And judging from the weapon configuration and attire, he doesn't look like a ninja.

On the contrary, the children who were fighting were all holding kunai, and their movements during the battle also vaguely had some of the style of the Mist Ninja.

Then, the three of them looked at each other.

"Those two fake Anbu." Jianchuan Ju said with a serious look on his face.

"This is a serious matter." However, although Mei Terumi said that things were serious, there was no trace of retreat in her tone.

Even Zabuza, who was standing by, although he appeared calm on the surface, was actually filled with anger in his heart.

Zabuza has always considered himself a reformer, and from the beginning to the end he could not stand the so-called blood mist policy of the Hidden Mist Village.

However, he had just used the most cruel means and paid a huge price to end the bloody assessment in the Hidden Mist Village that had lasted for decades.

These despicable pirates before us are still in this unknown corner, clumsily imitating these dregs that should be eliminated.

"Give the orders, captain." Zabuza reached for the short knife behind him and said to Mei Terumi.

Jianchuan Tachibana also looked at Terumi Mei with a serious expression.

He took another look at the pirates who were talking and laughing.

Mei Terumi's voice was different from usual, with a hint of bloodiness, as she spoke to her two teammates.

"Since these pirates want to train ninjas so much, let them see what real ninjas are like!"

Chapter 25 First Blood

Mei Terumi, who was temporarily leading the team, looked at the two of them with a determined gaze.

After so many days of sparring, Mei Terumi was very clear about the strength of her two teammates, and she had long known that Tachibana Jiankawa was by no means just a simple medical ninja.

Although the three of them are still young, they all have strength close to that of a Chunin. The only thing they lack may be experience in fighting enemies.

After a simple tactical arrangement, they began to act separately in tacit understanding.

After a while.

Taking Lanzai with him, they sneaked quietly to the two largest adjacent stone houses inside the camp, and Jianchuan Ju nimbly rolled over and hid by the window of the house.

really!

There was no need for Jianchuan Ju to even confirm it, as he could clearly hear deafening snoring coming from one of the rooms.

Jianchuan Ju didn't make any sound, but gestured to Lanzai to go to another room to investigate.

He clenched the kunai in his hand, and with his other hand, he grabbed the bottom edge of the window, exerted a little force, and then nimbly climbed into the house.

Without caring about the strength of the person who was sleeping soundly in the room, Jianchuan Ju's toes just touched the ground and he slightly arched his feet and exerted force again. He rushed to the bed in one step, and the kunai instantly pierced into the throat of the sleeping pirate.

"Pfft~"

The pirate just struggled slightly, splashed a small amount of blood, and then died.

From climbing into the house to killing the pirate, Jianchuan Ju didn't even think too much. He simply followed the steps taught in the Ninja School classroom and easily killed the other party.

'Life is such a fragile thing.'

[Ding! Kill an enemy for the first time, unlock the achievement "!"]

The cold system prompt sounded in his mind, making Jianchuan Ju feel somewhat complicated.

After knowing that he had come to this chaotic ninja world, Jianchuan Ju had already prepared himself mentally to have blood on his hands.

However, the system prompt sounded as if it was mocking Jianchuanju.

At this moment, there was no pirate's snoring or system prompts.

In the quiet room, a faint breathing sound in the corner came clearly into Jianchuan Ju's ears.

Without time to think, Jianchuan Ju's body tensed up in an instant, and he pulled out the kunai that was stuck in the pirate's neck with his backhand, and threw it hard towards the corner behind him where the sound came from.

At the same time, he turned around quickly, bursting chakra under his feet, and was ready to launch a follow-up attack.

"Boom."

The kunai hit a wooden wardrobe squarely and missed its target.

However, Jianchuan Ju, who had rushed to the opponent in a flash, did not launch any follow-up attacks.

Instead, he just stood there in a daze, looking at the 'enemy' in front of him.

The reason why the kunai missed the target was not because of a mistake, but because the opponent was too short.

In front of Jianchuan Ju at this moment was a red-haired child who looked only four or five years old and was tied to the ground with an iron chain.

This dirty child whose gender could not be identified had a thin body and empty eyes.

It is obvious that the child's spirit has been devastated.

He didn't react at all to the kunai that was stuck less than a centimeter away from his head, or the fist that stopped in front of him.

If it weren't for the faint sound of breathing, Jianchuan Ju would even doubt whether the other person was alive.

"Quack~O.O?"

Lan Zai's gentle call from the window brought Jianchuan Ju back to his senses.

"Go get some sleep first, and you'll be free when you wake up."

There was no time to mourn for the other person. He knocked the other person unconscious with a gentle knife. Jianchuan Ju turned around and walked out of the house with Lan Zai.

"Thanks to this kid, at least I don't have any psychological burden for my first kill." After searching several houses quickly, he didn't see any other pirates resting. The fog in the camp was getting thicker and thicker, so Jianchuanju gave up searching other rooms.

"Has Zabuza finished his mission?"

The task that Mei Terumi had previously assigned to Tachibana Kanegawa was to investigate whether there were any high-level pirates in the two houses that were obviously better off, and to decide on his own whether to launch a sneak attack or sound the alarm.

It was just that the opponent happened to be sleeping soundly, so Jianchuan Ju chose to kill him directly.

Zabuza went to the port to kill the pirates guarding the ship, and used the sea water to perform a large-scale fog hiding technique.

At this moment, both sides have completed it, and Jianchuan Ju also sneaked all the way and approached the most important training ground.

I could already hear the pirates' noisy shouting and cursing.

"What the hell is this weather? Is the fog usually this thick?!"

"Okay, stop complaining. Wutian and the other kids don't have to train, so we can rest early."

"What a bullshit! If those masters come to inspect the goods and the pass rate is not high enough, will you pay with your life?"

"Shut the fuck up! All you little devils! Stop it! Get the hell back into your cages!"

Although the thick fog had successfully separated the pirates and the children, Jianchuan Ju did not take immediate action.

Instead, he continued to move forward according to the plan with a cold expression.

On the other side, on a low hill close to the camp.

Seeing that the thick fog still covered the entire camp, Mei Terumi's frown finally relaxed a little.

There was no signal in the camp at this time, which meant that both teammates were making good progress.

However, because she couldn't hear the sound below, she naturally didn't know that the pirates had stopped the fighting of the children because of the fog. After all, when the three of them made the plan before, they still considered it from the perspective of ninja.

Mei Terumi still followed the plan and formed seals with her hands to perform ninjutsu.

"Earth Escape*Splitting Earth Palm"

In an instant, a part of the mountain collapsed and slid towards the camp below with a "boom".

Of course, in order not to accidentally hurt the children in the camp, the landslide caused by Mei Terumi was only to make noise and attract the attention of the pirates, and did not consume too much chakra.

The broken pieces of earth stopped moving forward before they reached the edge of the camp.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Is there a landslide?"

"Send two people over to see what's going on. And hurry up and get these little devils into the cages."

At this time, Jianchuan Tachibana and Zabuza, who finally received the attack signal below, immediately launched an attack on all the pirates around them.

Although they couldn't see far away in the fog, most of the pirates subconsciously looked in the direction of the loud noise.

The two men and the frog quietly eliminated a large number of pirates, but their tracks were eventually discovered.

"Enemy attack! Be careful!"
