Chapter 2 S-Rank Mission Target: Assassinate Jiraiya!
🕑 Added 2025-11-23 00:17:56 +0000 UTC‘Jonin…’
‘Jiraiya?’
After seeing the mission target, Sora's face instantly turned cold, covered in a frosty expression, and he felt an impulse to curse inside.
‘Surround and kill Jiraiya?’
‘Is this something a person with a normal mind could come up with?’
At this moment, Sora even began to suspect if this was the Third Mizukage was ruthlessly using his authority to eliminate dissidents!
"Alright."
"I understand."
Despite the storm raging in his heart, Sora remained expressionless and said calmly, "Kurumi, notify the Ninjas from the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Teams. Check equipment and assemble at the training ground in twenty minutes."
"Yes, Sora-sama."
The female Ninja with black short hair bowed her head in acknowledgment and then disappeared from the spot using the Body Flicker Technique.
Anbu Ninjas highly valued efficiency. They would absolutely never waste time walking when they could usually use the Body Flicker Technique to travel.
Twenty minutes later, Sora and another Anbu Captain both appeared on the training ground of the base.
At this time.
In front of the two of them, eight Anbu Teams stood in neat rows, each member wearing a white mask with terrifying patterns.
"Team Five assembled!"
"Team Six assembled!"
"..."
"Team Eleven assembled!"
"Team Twelve assembled!"
At the front.
The voices of the various Anbu’s team leaders rang out coldly.
"S-Rank Mission!"
"By the Mizukage's secret order, depart immediately!"
The portly Anbu Captain next to Sora issued the final command coldly.
The field was silent.
No one spoke.
All the Anbu Ninjas silently followed their respective squad leaders, leaving the training ground and heading towards the main gate of the Anbu’s base.
By this time, the Anbu participating in this mission all knew their assassination target, and their moods naturally became extremely heavy.
After all…
That is Konoha's Sannin, Jiraiya!
Even the killing machines forged in Kirigakure would be intimidated and terrified upon hearing the name Jiraiya.
A few Anbu who were familiar with each other exchanged glances, each seeing the unease in the other's eyes. Facing a peerless powerful enemy like the Sannin Jiraiya, how many of them would survive until the mission's end?
Within the team, Sora also wore a white mask, with Hyorinmaru at his waist, his thumb constantly rubbing against the blue hilt.
‘The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist…’
‘Surrounding and killing Konoha's Sannin Jiraiya!’
‘This time, I won't even get to see the faces of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, will I?’
Beneath the mask, Sora's expression became thoughtful.
‘The timing…’
‘Seems just right!’
If nothing unexpected happens, then the Mizukage's direct subordinates, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, are going to run into trouble before they even encounter Jiraiya.
They would run into the Strongest Genin of the current era!
Might Duy!
The Genin who was unknown throughout the Third Great Ninja War but later, fueled by paternal love, single-handedly decimated Kirigakure's Seven Ninja Swordsmen!
…
The two Anbu Squads, following their respective leaders, left the Kirigakure’s Anbu’s base and quickly headed towards the port outside the village.
The Land of Water, where Kirigakure is located, is situated on an isolated island far from the Ninja Continent. To reach the continent, one must take a ship from the port.
Two Squads.
Eight Anbu Teams, 32 Anbu’s members, divided into five large ships, swiftly headed towards the land border of the Land of Fire.
This journey would take at least three days.
Along the way, everyone was very silent, their expressions serious, because everyone understood the terrifying, Biju-level enemy they were about to face.
Jiraiya!
Konoha's Sannin!
In the current Ninja World, probably no one would dare claim they could take down this Konoha’s ‘Jonin’!
On the large ship-
By the railing.
The black-haired girl, Ringo Kurumi, looked at the calm figure standing by the railing and couldn't help but feel admiration.
Because of this mission, the pressure had been so great that she hadn't slept for two days and two nights. But looking at Sora, who was traveling with them, she found he still had the mood to appreciate the snowy seascape.
‘This mentality… one could only say it's expected of Sora-sama.’
‘However-’
The young girl was also a bit puzzled, ‘It was clearly autumn, so why was snow falling so strangely from the sky?’
"Sora-sama …"
"You seem very calm."
After holding back for a long time, Kurumi finally couldn't resist speaking.
By the railing, Sora slowly turned around and spoke lightly, "Kurumi, are you worried about the mission?"
"Yes."
"I'm worried you might be in danger."
"After all…"
"This opponent is completely different. That person is one of Konoha's Sannin!"
Kurumi said with an extremely grave expression.
As the blade in Sora's hand, she wasn't concerned about her own life and death, only her master's safety.
"It's snowing…"
After a long silence, Sora said something rather inexplicable: "The season of falling snow… the advantage lies with me."
"Falling snow? The advantage lies with you?"
Kurumi wore a bewildered expression, but seeing Sora's calm demeanor, she ultimately felt a sense of relief.
After all, the man standing before her was Kirigakure's rising superstar, the Ninja known alongside Yagura as one of Kirigakure's peerless twin geniuses!
Since Sora burst onto the scene, his mission completion rate was one hundred percent!
He…
Never fails!
