Two hours later.
Inside the village at the foot of the Xika Iron Mine.
Rokuro, Uzuki Yugao, and Yuhi Kurenai had just landed, and the village's people had already run to the village entrance to welcome them.
The reason was!
They saw the three of them landing while riding a giant bird.
Upon seeing Uzuki Yugao and Yuhi Kurenai's headbands, a middle-aged man ran out from among the armed villagers. Looking excitedly at Yuhi Kurenai and Uzuki Yugao, he said, "You two Lord Ninjas, you must be the ninjas sent by Konoha Village, right? Truly worthy of being Konoha elites, to actually be able to fly here! Now our Xika Village is saved. I ask the two Lords to please help us drive away the bandits!"
Uzuki Yugao stepped forward, nodded, and said, "Rest assured. Mere bandits, we can handle them very quickly. Where are they located right now? We'll go over there right now and drive them away!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man was instantly overjoyed. Pointing in a direction, he said, "You two Lord Ninjas, they are gathered in that mountain up ahead. Would you like us to lead the way there?!"
Uzuki Yugao turned her head to look.
The mountain the middle-aged man pointed to was four or five kilometers away from them.
She thought for a moment. Just as she was about to speak, the mud bird suddenly took off from the ground into the air. She watched as Rokuro rode the mud bird, flying off in the direction of the large mountain.
Uzuki Yugao froze for a moment, then immediately shouted, "Smelly brat, what are you trying to do? Hurry up and come back here!"
Up in the air, Rokuro waved his hand at Uzuki Yugao. "My two wives don't need to participate in such a bloody battle. You guys just wait for me here and that'll be enough!"
Saying this...
Rokuro had already flown far away.
Uzuki Yugao stomped her feet in anger and said to Yuhi Kurenai, "Kurenai, should we go over?!"
Yuhi Kurenai smiled helplessly. "Lord Hokage asked us to protect him. What do you think we should do?!"
Uzuki Yugao rubbed her head. "That smelly brat, truly not giving us a moment of peace. Let's go, let's follow him and take a look. I hope that little brat doesn't get injured!"
Yuhi Kurenai smiled faintly. "With his strength, getting injured probably won't happen. But with that many bandits, it will still be somewhat troublesome. Let's hurry over and help!"
Uzuki Yugao nodded. She cast a glance at the confused middle-aged man and said, "That little guy is our disciple. Don't listen to his nonsense. He just recently became a Genin and is a bit impulsive. We're going to go over and help him. If you guys want to come over, then come over. If you don't want to, then just wait here!"
The middle-aged man suddenly understood.
Just now hearing that child say the two women were his wives.
This had made him very confused.
So it was just a mischievous little brat. Truly not letting people have peace of mind.
The middle-aged man thought for a moment and said with a smile, "He's just a child, being a bit lively is normal. Becoming a Genin at such a young age, being a little impulsive is understandable!"
Uzuki Yugao's expression twitched!
The lie she told, she still had to smooth it over!
Truly troublesome enough!
Uzuki Yugao coughed drily and said, "Alright, we need to go over and take a look. Do as you please!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man gripped his longsword and said, "We'll go too. We've already fought a few skirmishes with those bandits. If we go, we can also help out and drive them away sooner!"
"That works too. Then you guys take your time following us. We'll head out first!"
Uzuki Yugao replied with a sentence, pulled Yuhi Kurenai, and left first.
As the saying goes, a mountain looks close but running to it will kill a horse!
Looking at the distance to the large mountain, it was only three or four kilometers away from them.
However, the road was winding and twisting, and in some places they had no choice but to detour. This caused them to spend nearly an hour's time before arriving at the foot of the mountain, where they saw Rokuro currently sitting.
"You're here!"
Rokuro waved his hand at the two of them.
Uzuki Yugao walked to Rokuro's side, gave his head a smack, and said, "Smelly brat, since you didn't dare to take action, why didn't you bring us along? Making us walk such a long way, wasting a third of our physical stamina!"
Rokuro rubbed his head, looking helplessly at Uzuki Yugao. "Big sister, can you ask clearly about the situation before making a move? Doing things like this makes me feel very wronged, alright?!"
Uzuki Yugao froze for a moment and frowned. "What do you mean by this? Don't tell me you drove the bandits away yourself?"
Rokuro puffed out his chest. "That's only natural. What do mere bandits count for in front of me?!"
Uzuki Yugao cast a glance up the mountain and said hesitantly, "Over four hundred bandits were all scared off by you? Then your movements were truly fast. By the looks of it, I really did misunderstand you!"
Rokuro nodded repeatedly. "Of course. Let's rest for a bit and hurry up and leave to do the next mission. We can't waste our time here!"
