Chapter 568

Being so reckless was simply breaking the rules of the Hyuga clan.

However, considering Kitazawa's status, he didn't say anything.

After all, Tsunade was currently at the height of her power in the Hidden Leaf Village.

Especially after she returned to the village and struck Danzo Shimura and the Root several times, her prestige was even greater than before.

"Good afternoon."

Kitazawa patted Hyuga Hinata's head and said.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Hyuga Neji walked over unhurriedly.

"Hmm."

Kitazawa nodded, looked at Hyuga Hiashi, and said, "Clan Leader Hiashi, I want to take Hinata out for a two-day mission."

"Do a mission?"

Hyuga Hiashi's gaze condensed, and he said, "She is too young; it's not time for her to do missions."

"I want to go!"

Hyuga Hinata said firmly.

"..."

Hyuga Hiashi was speechless.

In front of outsiders, can't Itachi give me some face?

"What mission is it?"

Hyuga Hiashi met Hyuga Hinata's gaze, and feeling that she wouldn't compromise, he asked again.

Kitazawa immediately told the whole story.

"Itachi are indeed a good teacher."

Hyuga Hiashi was silent for two seconds and said.

However, from Kitazawa's attitude toward Hyuga Neji and Hyuga Hinata, it could be seen that he was indeed thinking of his students in every way.

"I will let Tokuma follow Itachi secretly."

Hyuga Hiashi thought for a moment and said.

"Thank Itachi, Father."

Upon hearing this, Hyuga Hinata immediately smiled.

"Then we will leave first, Clan Leader Hiashi."

Kitazawa took Hyuga Hinata to find the next teammate.

Yamanaka Inoichi was very easy to talk to; he didn't even ask about the mission and agreed.

Tenten went without saying; it was for her that he went to find the summoning animal in the first place.

The four of them came to the gate of the Hidden Leaf Village.

With the permit given by Tsunade, they successfully left the village.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Tenten asked impatiently, "What kind of summoning animal is it?"

"It's called the Shouqicheng Giant Lizard."

Kitazawa replied.

"Ah? A lizard?"

A look of difficulty appeared on Tenten's face.

"I feel like a lizard isn't cute enough."

Yamanaka Ino voiced Tenten's inner thoughts.

Hyuga Hinata also nodded in agreement.

"If the appearance isn't enough, strength makes up for it; this is called strength beauty."

Kitazawa coughed lightly and told them the story of the Shouqicheng Giant Lizard.

"So powerful?"

Tenten's eyes brightened; she didn't care that it was a lizard.

After all, such a huge size plus super abilities already made it a powerhouse among summoning animals.

"Guarded for fifty years?"

Yamanaka Ino sighed, "This summoning animal is really loyal."

"Hmm."

Tenten nodded and said, "Just this point is enough."

The relationship between a ninja and a summoning animal is not master and servant.

There are many cases of summoning animals fleeing in battle.

There are even those who bite back at their ninjas.

For example, the snakes of Ryuchi Cave.

In the original work, Orochimaru had to give them sacrifices, such as living people, to make them work.

Running away when they couldn't win was even more common.

"Alright, to arrive at the destination earlier, we have to run."

Kitazawa reminded them and accelerated.

Hyuga Hinata and the other three hurriedly ran over.

The four of them headed west all the way, and in the evening, they left the Land of Fire and entered the Land of Rivers.

"We'll rest here for the night and set off tomorrow."

Kitazawa looked left and right and said.

He remembered that in the original work, Uzumaki Naruto's squad even encountered ghosts in Shouqicheng.

Going over in the middle of the night would scare these three little girls.

Besides, after traveling all afternoon, they were indeed very exhausted.

"According to what was taught in class, I will assign tasks."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "Hinata, set up the tents; Tenten, set up traps; Ino, find food."

"Yes, Teacher Kitazawa."

The three immediately took action.

Kitazawa guided them while watching.

Night fell.

Hyuga Hinata set up two tents.

Tenten set up four traps around with explosive tags and ninja tools.

Yamanaka Ino caught a deer.

After eating, Kitazawa let the three of them go to the tents to sleep.

He kept watch while thinking about Ninja Art: Moonlit Beauty.

The three little girls were doing a mission outside for the first time and were very excited, whispering to each other for a long time before falling into a deep sleep.

After Kitazawa had a general idea of Ninja Art: Moonlit Beauty, he set up a few more traps nearby before going to another tent to sleep.

The night passed without incident.

After breakfast, the four of them set off again.

In less than an hour, they arrived at their destination, the old site of the Land of Shou.

"Let's go in."

Kitazawa looked at the eerie Shouqicheng and said, "Be careful."

He knew that this Shouqicheng was actually transformed by the Shouqicheng Giant Lizard.

"Hmm!"

Hyuga Hinata and the other two looked around very vigilantly.

When they entered Shouqicheng, the original buildings suddenly changed.

They saw a lot of flesh and blood surging out, rushing toward them like a tide.

"Careful!"

Tenten immediately took out a scroll.

She opened the scroll, and a series of ninja tools flew out.

The ninja tools all hit the flesh and blood.

Following closely was a muffled roar.

"What's going on?"

Yamanaka Ino widened her eyes and asked.

"We are inside the Shouqicheng Giant Lizard."

Kitazawa said unhurriedly, "Don't panic, its contract scroll is in one of the rooms; just find it."

"It's coming again!"

Tenten reminded.

"I'll try the Mind Transfer Jutsu."

Yamanaka Ino raised her hands.

An invisible mental wave surged out.

It hit!

Yamanaka Ino was happy in her heart, but then it went black before her eyes; she was kicked out without any resistance.

This was the limitation of the Mind Transfer Jutsu.

When encountering someone with a firm will or a monster, there was simply no way to control their body.

Gentle Fist: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!

Hyuga Hinata tightened her face and struck palms continuously.

The surging flesh and blood couldn't help but retreat after being attacked.

"While Itachi resist, follow me."

Kitazawa didn't make a move, letting them fight the Shouqicheng Giant Lizard.

After all, this was a good training opportunity.

The three of them brought out all their skills, barely blocking the Shouqicheng Giant Lizard's offensive.

Kitazawa was looking for the ghost, the owner of the Shouqicheng Giant Lizard, Shouqicheng Ganzo.

Seeing Hyuga Hinata focused on the battle, he directly activated his Byakugan.

In an instant, his line of sight was full of chakra.

But the ghost's chakra was different from the Shouqicheng Giant Lizard's chakra; it belonged to Yin Style.

"May I ask if Itachi are the daimyo Shouqicheng Ganzo?"

Kitazawa quickly found the ghost.
