Chapter 648

"It's S-rank."

Kitazawa smiled upon seeing this and said, "I'll definitely make Itachi satisfied later."

"S-rank?"

Kurenai Yuhi frowned slightly, changed her attitude, and asked, "Will it be too dangerous?"

"What? Are Itachi afraid?"

Kitazawa pinched her cheek and asked.

"Of course I'm not afraid!"

Kurenai Yuhi hugged her arms and said, "I'm worried about Izumi and the others."

For an S-rank mission, there's a high probability of encountering Jonin.

Izumi Uchiha and the others were only Chunin; fighting Jonin was too risky.

"Now Kabuto is a Jonin, Itachi count as a Special Jonin, so there's no big problem for us three Jonin to do an S-rank mission."

Kitazawa said indifferently.

And as a fan of the original work, he knew that although there were many ninjas in the Hidden Sky Village, the only one who truly possessed Jonin strength was Shennong.

"That's true."

Kurenai Yuhi felt relieved and said, "Itachi are a Jonin who can kill Raiga Kurosuki."

In her view, most of the Jonin encountered in S-rank missions were ordinary Jonin.

With Kitazawa there, there would indeed be no danger.

"I'll go cook."

Kitazawa didn't explain further.

Shennong's strength after using forbidden medical arts was actually far beyond Raiga Kurosuki's.

Especially under the effect of Forbidden Medical Art: Physical Reincarnation, he could use the Eight Inner Gates for a long time.

But looking at it from the original work, his Eight Inner Gates were like a pirated version.

The power couldn't compare to Might Guy's, nor could it compare to Might Dai's.

After breakfast, Kitazawa and Yakumo Kurama went next door.

After finishing Tsunade's treatment, he went straight to the Hokage Building mission hall.

Taking down Shennong was his private mission; to leave the village normally, he had to go find Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The Hokage's order Kitazawa got from Tsunade earlier could only be used by him personally.

To save trouble, he just picked a mission to suppress bandits in the Land of Birds as a cover.

Hidden Leaf Village gate.

When Kitazawa arrived, Kurenai Yuhi, Yakushi Kabuto, Torune Aburame, and Izumi Uchiha were already waiting.

After some pleasantries, they registered with the two gatekeepers of the Hidden Leaf Village.

"Let's go!"

Kitazawa waved his hand and said.

The five of them quickly left the Hidden Leaf Village.

"Kitazawa-sensei."

Yakushi Kabuto took out a scroll and said, "This is the information I collected about the Hidden Sky Village."

"Hidden Sky Village?"

Kurenai Yuhi asked suspiciously, "Why haven't I heard of this ninja village?"

"It's normal that Itachi haven't heard of the Hidden Sky Village."

Kitazawa said while looking at the scroll, "It was already destroyed during the Second Shinobi World War."

"No wonder."

A look of realization appeared on Kurenai Yuhi's face.

After all, she was born not long after the Second Shinobi World War.

"Are we going to the Hidden Sky Village?"

Kurenai Yuhi asked again, "Wasn't it destroyed?"

Yakushi Kabuto subconsciously looked at Kitazawa upon hearing this.

He also wanted to know the answer to this question.

"It was destroyed, but some Hidden Sky ninjas survived."

Kitazawa replied, "They have been accumulating strength all these years, trying to take revenge on our Hidden Leaf."

"Is this a secret mission given to Itachi by the Hokage?"

Kurenai Yuhi asked curiously upon hearing this.

"No."

Kitazawa said truthfully, "The leader of the Hidden Sky Village, Shennong, has the medical ninjutsu I want."

"It seems he is also an excellent medical ninja."

Kurenai Yuhi chuckled and said, "Otherwise, Itachi wouldn't have taken a fancy to him."

"Don't underestimate him just because he is a medical ninja."

Kitazawa closed the scroll and said, "His combat ability is not weak either."

"Understood."

Kurenai Yuhi nodded and said.

"Kitazawa-sensei, to go to the Land of Birds, which road should we take?"

Yakushi Kabuto waited until they finished talking before asking.

"Which road do Itachi think we should take?"

Kitazawa asked back.

"Take the Land of Wind."

Yakushi Kabuto pondered for a moment and said.

"Why not take the Land of Rain?"

Kitazawa asked with interest.

"The Hidden Rain Village in the Land of Rain has not been in contact with the outside world since the Third Shinobi World War; no one knows what Hanzo is thinking."

Yakushi Kabuto analyzed, "Considering the grudge between the Hidden Rain Village and our Hidden Leaf, I think taking the Land of Wind is safer."

"Kitazawa, this student of yours is truly excellent."

Kurenai Yuhi said with great approval.

"When Itachi become a team leader in the future, Itachi will also have excellent students."

Kitazawa smiled and said, "Then we will take the Land of Wind."

Although Yakushi Kabuto's analysis was far from the reality, it couldn't be blamed on him.

Not only him, but even the ninjas of the Five Great Villages couldn't have imagined that the once-arrogant Hanzo had long since passed away.

Itachi must know that Hanzo at his peak could fight three people at once, suppressing Orochimaru, Tsunade, and Jiraiya.

Even the title of the Legendary Sannin was bestowed by him.

It can only be said that every generation has its own version of gods.

Hanzo belonged to the early version meeting the late version of gods.
