Chapter 525

Kitazawa sensed the warmth on his face.

"Hmm."

Kurenai Yuhi responded.

"Do Itachi want to take a bath?"

Kitazawa reached out, patted her head, and asked.

"My body is sticky, I want to wash."

Kurenai Yuhi sat up and said, "But I want to wash by myself."

"Why?"

Kitazawa understood immediately and said with a smile, "Itachi don't have to be afraid; I definitely won't move my hands and feet on Itachi."

"I'm not afraid!"

Kurenai Yuhi glared at him and said, "And what Itachi say has absolutely no credibility!"

"I made an appointment to meet Kabuto and the others at nine."

Kitazawa pinched her thigh, "Bathing plus eating, half an hour is already very reluctant; where is there time to do other things?"

"I'll believe Itachi once for now."

Kurenai Yuhi's eyes turned, and she stretched out her hands directly, saying with a smile, "Carry me to take a bath."

Kitazawa's eyes widened instinctively.

The scene of the heavy burden in front of him was too impactful.

"Are Itachi doing this on purpose?"

Kitazawa's mouth twitched and he said, "It doesn't matter if Kabuto and the others wait an extra hour."

"Itachi promised them, Itachi can't break your word!"

Kurenai Yuhi panicked in her heart and said hurriedly.

"Itachi really have a big addiction for being bad."

Kitazawa shook his head, got out of bed, and carried her.

"How so?"

Kurenai Yuhi's face was slightly red, and she didn't admit it; instead, she kicked him with her long legs.

Kitazawa looked at the swinging thighs and jade feet instinctively.

After the two finished washing and eating breakfast, they headed to the gate of the Hidden Leaf Village.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Kabuto Yakushi glanced at Kurenai Yuhi and walked in front of Kitazawa.

Torune Aburame and Izumi Uchiha also followed to greet him.

"Hmm."

Kitazawa nodded and introduced, "She is Kurenai Yuhi; she is following us to perform the mission; Itachi call her... Senior."

"Senior Kurenai."

The three of them answered in unison.

"Kitazawa often mentions Itachi to me, saying that Itachi are geniuses among geniuses, and your future is limitless."

Kurenai Yuhi said with a smile.

Kabuto Yakushi was thoughtful.

Kurenai Yuhi and Kitazawa's relationship looked very unusual; they might be a couple.

After all, under normal circumstances, going out to do missions is in the form of a four-person squad.

"Let's go register."

Kitazawa came to Kotetsu Hagane and took out the Hokage's order.

"A-rank mission?"

Kotetsu Hagane took a look and couldn't help but sigh, "Your squad's progress is really fast."

Kabuto Yakushi, Torune Aburame, and Izumi Uchiha becoming Chunin and being able to take A-rank missions in less than a month was truly beyond his expectations.

Although their strength was among the best of their peers, they were Chunin after all.

Generally speaking, it takes several years of adaptation and exercise to come into contact with A-rank missions.

"Indeed."

Izumo Kamizuki agreed.

He and Kotetsu Hagane were the examiners for the last Chunin exam and saw Kabuto Yakushi and the others pass the Chunin exam with their own eyes.

Kitazawa smiled and didn't say that their actual mission was S-rank.

As for this A-rank mission, it was to cover up the truth.

Its content was also compiled by Hiruzen Sarutobi, asking the Kitazawa squad to go to a secret Hidden Leaf base on the border of the Land of Fire to deliver a letter.

And the capital of the Land of Fire happened to be on the route to it.

"Senior Kitazawa, I wish Itachi a smooth mission."

Kotetsu Hagane said with a smile after finishing the registration.

"Go early and return early."

Izumo Kamizuki waved his hand and said.

"Thank Itachi."

After Kitazawa finished speaking, he turned to look at Kurenai Yuhi, Kabuto Yakushi, and the others, saying, "Depart!"

The five people started running and quickly disappeared into the Forest of Death.

Because they were in the Land of Fire, they didn't encounter any blind robbers or wandering ninjas along the way, and it was very smooth.

"Finally here; I haven't eaten after running for most of the day, and my stomach is protesting."

Kurenai Yuhi stopped and relaxed her body.

"Itachi should learn from my three students; they didn't complain a word along the way."

Kitazawa looked at the capital of the Land of Fire in front of him and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Kurenai Yuhi raised her arm directly and gave him an elbow.

Seeing this, Kabuto Yakushi adjusted his glasses.

He was now more certain of the relationship between Kurenai Yuhi and Kitazawa.

At the same time, he labeled Kurenai Yuhi as someone not to be provoked.

"Let's go, let's eat first."

Kitazawa thought for a while and said, "Then find a place to stay for the night, and do the mission tomorrow."

The five people entered the capital of the Land of Fire.

"Have Itachi been here before?"

Kitazawa looked around and asked casually.

"I have."

Izumi Uchiha explained, "When I was in the previous ninja squad, I helped the Daimyo's wife take care of cats."

"This is my first time here."

Torune Aburame replied.

"I've been here twice."

Kabuto Yakushi observed the nearby environment and said slowly, "It was because of a Root mission."

"Let's go to this shop."

Kitazawa walked into an inn and booked four rooms.

In this way, not only did Kabuto Yakushi guess his relationship with Kurenai Yuhi, but even Torune Aburame and Izumi Uchiha noticed it.

But Kitazawa and Kurenai Yuhi didn't mind being known by them.

After the five people booked the rooms, they booked a table of food.

"Do Itachi know about the Guardian Shinobi?"

Kitazawa picked up his chopsticks and asked.

"They are the twelve ninjas who protect the Daimyo of the Land of Fire."

Kabuto Yakushi replied immediately.

"Our mission this time is related to the Guardian Shinobi."

Since they arrived at the capital of the Land of Fire, Kitazawa didn't hide it anymore and told the real mission content.

Izumi Uchiha's small face was full of shock.

She didn't expect this mission to involve twelve Special Jonin and Jonin.

Itachi have to know that when she was in the previous ninja squad, the highest mission she did was B-rank, and it was very difficult to meet a Special Jonin.

It could only be said that it was worthy of being an S-rank mission.

Every S-rank mission for a ninja could be said to be a life-and-death situation.

Kabuto Yakushi fell into thought.

This mission sounded difficult at first, but in reality, there was a lot of room for operation, which was about the same as his previous prediction.

After all, it wasn't asking their ninja squad to deal with twelve Special Jonin and Jonin.

More than half of them were their teammates.

Torune Aburame was used to following orders.

Although he was a bit surprised, he gave up thinking directly and just buried his head in eating.

"We will go to see Asuma tomorrow."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "But before that, I'll give Itachi a mission, which is to collect intelligence on the Guardian Shinobi."

"Okay."

Kabuto Yakushi adjusted his glasses and said.

Izumi Uchiha wanted to say something but stopped.

Let the three of them, as Chunin, collect intelligence on Special Jonin and Jonin?

She always felt it was unlikely.

However, she still chose to trust Kabuto Yakushi.

After all, since they formed the team, Kabuto Yakushi had been very reliable, or rather, experienced beyond belief.

Izumi Uchiha often suspected that under his skin was a seventy or eighty-year-old ninja.

Kurenai Yuhi looked at Kitazawa instinctively.

She had the same thought as Izumi Uchiha, feeling that this mission was too difficult for them.

But she didn't say much.

After eating, Kabuto Yakushi, Torune Aburame, and Izumi Uchiha left the inn.

"Kabuto."

Izumi Uchiha couldn't help but ask, "How are we going to collect intelligence? The Guardian Shinobi are all much stronger than us."

"Itachi have the Sharingan, and Torune has insects; collecting intelligence is not difficult."

Kabuto Yakushi said clearly, "What we need to do is find the key figures."
