The rewards for C-level missions are not very high (after all, they only deal with ordinary people, and B-level and above will 100% encounter Ninja, and there is a high probability of encountering Ninja in the Ninja Village, so C-level and D-level missions are really not worth mentioning.)
At a relatively low cost, you can hire a small team of Ninja to clear out the bandits or dangerous elements entrenched near your town. For most city owners, this is definitely a very cost-effective deal. If the garrison takes action,, Let's not talk about the need for more time, the pressure of personnel, materials, etc. is enough to give these city lords a headache. Moreover, if there are casualties in the troops going to conquer, they will also have to consider the follow-up pension issue, which is simply an even more troublesome matter.
Therefore, whenever there is any trouble, hire Ninja from your own ninja village to deal with it. This has become a consensus among major countries. This time Naruto and others implemented The same is true for C-level missions. Previously, the city lord was not willing to have the nearby garrison to clear out the troops. Now it is easier. Just spending a small amount of money can easily buy peace in the jurisdiction. Not to mention how comfortable the city lord is.
Team 7, led by Kakashi, naturally does not know the inner thoughts of the city lord. Even if he knew, he would not care. Anyway, he collects money and does everything in accordance with the rules. Moreover, he helped Land of Fire eliminate the bandits, which can be regarded as a safe place and a safe place for the people. This is a double benefit.
Count from departure.
It took about four hours of trekking.
Naruto and others also arrived at a mountain range about three or four miles away from the location of Bandit Lair recorded on the mission scroll at dusk.
A deliberately selected high point location needs to be trimmed to a certain extent first.
After all, Team 7 is just the Genin team that has just been established.
This is the first time Team 7 has received a C-level mission. Of course, completing the mission is the first priority.
But also with the help of this more special mission.
The three Genin who further tempered Team 7 are not only in terms of strength, but also in mentality and measure.
"It's almost here. According to the instructions in the scroll, it's the top of the mountain in front. There is a small valley inside. This group of bandits is stationed there. Everyone, confirm the location!"
Kakashi stood at the front, looking at another hilltop not far away. He turned his head and looked at Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura standing behind him and said this.
"Yes, Kakashi-sensei."
Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura also looked along Kakashi's line of sight. At the faintly visible small valley, the three of them nodded slightly to indicate that they understood.
"According to the intelligence, there are 113 young and middle-aged men in this bandit den, plus women, children, and some old people, there are almost 200 people. The time is now 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and the mission will start three hours later. When it is completely dark, the mission goal is to eliminate all these 200 people without leaving any one alive!"
The previous lazy or leisurely look on his face had completely disappeared. At this moment, Kakashi's face was filled with a cold expression. Looking at the three people Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke in front of him, there was no emotional fluctuation in the words he spoke.
The words that fell seemed to freeze the surrounding time and space at this moment.
Naruto, who was still complaining in his heart, "This doesn't look like a bandit's den, there are actually young and old women, it looks like a simple village."
And Sakura Haruno is still worried about whether he will be injured in the next mission.
Even Uchiha Sasuke, who has always maintained a cold attitude.
The three of them all suddenly changed their expressions at this moment, looking at Hatake Kakashi in front of them with expressions of disbelief. At this time, the three of them looked at Kakashi, as if they were not looking at the instructor Jonin in their team, but at a certain monster.
Purge?
No one left alive?
them?
Clear out those bandits?
Including those old, weak, women and children!?
If at this moment, Naruto and Sasuke can barely maintain a calm mind.
Sakura on the side fell directly into a dull mood.
It seems like a second, but it seems like an eternity.
"What's the answer?"
In Kakashi's words that sounded coldly again as if he was a little impatient.
Sakura just came back to his senses.
Before Naruto and Sasuke could say anything.
"Why? The mission shouldn't be like this, right? Kakashi-sensei! It's just the bandits that need to be eliminated! Shouldn't those old, weak, women and children be protected? Kakashi-sensei, you must have said something wrong just now, right? Our mission is just to eliminate those bandits, right?"
Sakura was already looking at Kakashi with a very nervous and frightened expression, a very timid look, an obvious tremor that could be heard in his words, and the last glimmer of hope in his eyes.
Kill!
And he was going to kill someone just after graduation.
It's not that Sakura Haruno is not mentally prepared for this.
The world here is a completely different world.
What does Ninja mean.
Perhaps Sakura is relatively naive and even a little stupid compared to Naruto and Sasuke, but even so, Sakura also knows what his profession represents. Ninja is no joke about playing house, Ninja must mean a battlefield, be it small or large. Sakura has long been mentally prepared for killing people, but he came too early and a bit suddenly. This was also the moment when Naruto requested to receive a C-level mission. The reason for Sakura's obvious resistance was not only lack of confidence in his own strength, but also fear of killing people.
But in the end, Sakura Haruno followed for this last mission.
This means that Sakura Haruno is very clear about the consciousness he should have as Ninja.
But this realization definitely does not include the mission content mentioned by Kakashi at this moment.
Suppress the bandits.
Sakura knows exactly what to do.
Although there are hundreds of living lives, this is not only a mission requirement. The most important thing is that according to intelligence, these bandits have robbed countless caravans and even ransacked a dozen villages. They are criminals with a lot of crimes. Killing these people will certainly cause psychological barriers to Sakura, and he may even have difficulty accepting it for a while (after all, there are hundreds of them.)
But at least from a bottom-line perspective, Sakura can still accept it.
However, the mission goal far exceeded Sakura's expectations.
It's not just the bandits with more than a hundred people.
We also need to completely kill those old, weak, women and children, a total of two hundred people, at this point.
Sakura is absolutely unacceptable.
At this moment, Sakura Haruno hoped that this was just a joke between Kakashi-sensei and himself and others.
