This was also the ninja troops' last day of rest.
While practicing in the forest, Dong Ge suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his heart. Three silent figures suddenly appeared around him.
"The dark side?" Seeing the animal masks on their faces, a trace of confusion flashed through Dong Ge's eyes.
Those who had come down from the battlefield needed at least a week of rest. There could be nothing good about the Anbu finding him so quickly!
Sure enough!
Just as the thought crossed his mind, one of them raised a hand and threw over a mission order.
"Snake Hunt Plan?" Mirai opened the scroll. The four words caught his eye, written in deep vermilion.
Meet at the designated location at midnight tonight.
After the Eagle-masked man spoke in a grim voice, he gave Mirai no time to react. With a gesture, the three vanished in a flash.
The three came and went without a trace, moving incredibly fast.
"Tonight..." Mirai silently noted down the location from the scroll, then raised his hand and destroyed it.
On that dark night, the forest was exceptionally quiet.
The birds had returned to their nests, while snakes and insects had crawled into their holes.
There was a strange scent in the air. It was cold without being biting, yet it slowly seeped into the skin.
Mirai put on a fox mask and arrived at the designated location, where three Anbu were already waiting.
I thought he was afraid of death.
"Have we been waiting for half an hour now?!"
"Kid, don't you know it's disrespectful to make your seniors wait?"
Two dark eyes stared at Mirai as they stepped closer. With the advantage of being half a head taller, they looked down on him from above.
They were trying to intimidate Mirai!
