Of all the Genin in the entire Shinobi World, what they hated most was always the complicated, troublesome, and exhausting low-level missions.
In their initial fantasies, becoming a ninja was only their first step. Next, they would learn powerful ninjutsu and other abilities, then become famous throughout the Shinobi World and win everyone's admiration and affection.
But the reality was that their very first step out of the Ninja Academy brought them face-to-face with an endless stream of filthy, tedious low-level missions!
Digging river channels, picking up trash, catching cats, finding dogs, and so on...
These low-level missions quickly dampened the Genin's enthusiasm.
But what they did not know was that their seniors and higher-ups had painstakingly selected these low-level missions as the most suitable ones for helping Genin grow!
First, all that tedious, filthy work would immediately force naive Genin to face reality and understand that being a ninja had never been so glamorous.
The appropriate degree of danger in low-level missions would gradually cultivate their crucial sense of vigilance.
And those low-level missions that required entering rivers and climbing trees were meant to help Genin build their foundations.
To complete missions involving gathering things in trees or catching cats and finding dogs, they would certainly need to spend long stretches in the trees. That was tree-climbing practice!
To enter a river to clear its channel or pick up trash, if they did not want to get soaked and end up a mess, and wanted to finish the mission faster, their best option was to stand on the water's surface. And that was water-walking practice!
These carefully selected low-level missions were themselves intended to train Genin and build their foundations. If they could discover the tricks involved on their own, that meant they would grow a step ahead of
