As for why we didn't go to Tiger's side?
Because the people there clearly demonstrated through their actions and words the consequences of disobeying.
Although both options lead to death, they knew which method of death to choose—the one that ended in battle or the one that ended in a swift and painful end.
People are now using phrases like begging for mercy, surrendering, and giving up.
But none of them fared well when faced with obstacles.
Since the tiger wants to train the wolf, let's see if the wolf's claws are faster, or if our knives are faster!
After all, they were all bandit leaders, and they were not lacking in the courage to First Shinobi World War.
So, led by the three black-clad warriors, they all unleashed their full power and desperately tried to break the wolf's claws.
Their idea was simple: they wanted Tiger to regret what he had done.
So, with the help of his teammates...
Aburame Kaun played a thoroughly enjoyable match.
This time, he truly experienced what it meant to dance on the edge of a knife.
Fighting someone who knows they're going to die but doesn't care about their life is truly exhilarating!
As he caught his breath after the battle, the Ninja Dog Brown and White, finally severed the third leader's head, despite being covered in knife wounds.
For a moment, the room fell silent.
All that remained were the constant breathing of the man and the dog, and the sizzling sound of their wounds being stimulated by Medical Ninjutsu.
After Healing Jutsu Kaun's minor knife wounds, Uka Senju smiled and patted her friend on the shoulder.
He gave her a reassuring and approving look, followed by a wry smile.
He turned and walked over to the Ninja Dog that was receiving treatment from its owner, Furin.
Looking at the various cuts on the Brown and White's body, he gently rubbed the puppy's raised head.
While calming him down, Chakra, and a green light, like that of Furin, appeared on his palm.
Place it on the wound in the right paw.
The two focused intently on treating the battered and bruised Brown and White.
The puppy has always had only one opponent.
But that man was the third-in-command of the mountain bandits.
Strictly speaking, the dog's opponent tonight was stronger than the woman that its owner, Furin, had dealt with.
Therefore, they all highly praised the puppy's performance.
While they were focused on treating the patients, a middle-aged woman dressed in Senju Combat Uniform slowly entered the arena.
After waiting quietly for a few minutes, I looked at the three vouchers that Uka Senju had brought.
A slight smile played on her lips as she asked, "So, do you think the mission was successful or a failure?"
Upon hearing the teacher's question, Uka Senju thought for a moment, bowed slightly, and spoke first, "Teacher, the mission requires a head."
"Whether you succeed or fail depends on what use you have for the head."
He considered explaining himself, but this was his teacher.
And none of the many heads that were there last night had any problems.
What happened tonight was definitely my mistake.
The answer she heard made Senju Tsukika slowly nod.
Putting this trivial matter aside, she slightly turned her head and glanced at the three people and one dog in front of her.
Finally, her gaze settled on the white-haired boy in the middle.
Looking at this student I've been teaching the longest, I thought of the battle we'd just fought.
She immediately realized that the clever little guy must have guessed something!
Otherwise, why would the little guy only Swordsmanship to fight if there were a quicker solution?
And after fighting inside the courtyard, he deliberately forced the bandits and his teammates to fight to the death outside, instead of going forward to help?
But when did Uka come up with this idea?
She carefully recalled everything that had happened that day.
A moment later, she remembered the extra steps Uka had taken before setting off.
Heh... so you chose this method to pass on information because you knew there were people around?
They seem very cautious!
Realizing this, she lost all interest in commenting.
Since the students are so smart, they know to seize the opportunity to improve themselves.
So all I can do is increase the difficulty for the students!
With this thought in mind, I observed the state of the three people.
After a moment's thought, she maintained her smile and spoke softly again, "You've completed the mission."
"According to the rules, you have one day of rest. I will give you your third task tomorrow night."
"So from now until sunset tomorrow, you are free to do as you please!"
After speaking, Senju Tsukika gently patted Uka's shoulder before using Body Flicker Technique to disappear from the three of them's sight.
Hearing the teacher's decision, and especially seeing that final action.
The three looked up and exchanged bewildered glances.
They all understood, so the room fell silent for a moment.
After a moment, looking at her thoughtful companions and the messy battlefield beside her, Uka Senju interrupted in a deep voice, "Everyone, let's clean up the battlefield and pack our things!"
"There's nothing to think about. Since things have come to this, let's just get some rest for the last day and night!"
"Our days are likely to get even tougher starting tomorrow night."
After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
He thought the pat on the shoulder was a subtle gesture.
Unexpectedly, the teacher still found out.
During the intelligence check, Kaun's words led him to guess the Clan's other methods.
That's like unleashing dogs to bite people, just like in the village!
This method is simple, but very effective.
I grew up so quickly because I went through all of these things.
Therefore, after probing the strength of the village, he only Swordsmanship to train against his enemies.
That's why she chatted while holding the Furin, instead of stepping forward to help Kaun out of the predicament.
During yesterday's mission, he and Furin had already experienced what it was like to be surrounded and had figured out how to deal with it, but Kaun hadn't!
Once the Clan begins to act, such precious opportunities to train with the enemy in peace will become rare.
Even if they see an opportunity, they won't dare to practice so recklessly.
Even in subsequent battles, they had to be mindful of potential attacks at any moment.
That's why he and Furin chose not to help, but instead forced the bandits and their companions to fight to the death.
Unfortunately, I thought my discreet notification could be kept secret.
This allows the teacher to make a mistake, giving the students time to adjust!
Surprisingly, even such a small movement was noticed by the teacher.
Hearing Uka's words, he recalled the contents of the note.
The two put aside their pent-up emotions and nodded.
After all, what could a little Camilla like them do now that things had come to this?
I can only lie down and let them do as they please. I hope the teacher will go a little easy on me!
The three of them quickly assigned directions and began searching in different locations.
But they had barely taken a step...
Just as Aburame Kaun, was about to bend down to search for money, she suddenly remembered something important.
He quickly turned to the two people who were cleaning up and said, "I almost forgot, remember to look for any good ingredients and suitable seasonings later."
"Anyway, tomorrow's the perfect day to relax. We've been working hard for two days, so let's treat ourselves to a good time."
Upon hearing this, the simple-minded Brown and White immediately responded loudly before the other two could react.
It first barked twice, then kept wagging its tail while looking at the Furin.
Looking at the excited Ninja Dog and Kaun offering suggestions, Uka Senju sighed and nodded with a smile.
