Chapter 15 The Corpse of the Lower Nanhe River
Konoha's Mission Assembly House.
The third generation Naruto looked at the people in the seventh class in complexity, and finally his eyes were on Haki Kakashi, and his eyes were even more obscure.
The 7th class's instructor, Kakashi Kazuki, had a thick bandage wrapped around his arm, and this wound was added after participating in the survival exercise.
Sarutobi Hinako stared at his arm and took a breath of cigarette: "Kakashi, you have no problem with your injury, right?"
This Kakashi is simply a weirdo instructing the Uenin world!
A few years ago, his graduate assessment pass rate was zero; this year he finally allowed a team to pass the assessment, but he was beaten to the lottery by the graduates!
Haki Kakashi reached out to sort out his scattered hair, sighed and said, "It shouldn't matter, some ordinary ninja missions are still fine..."
The third generation of Naruto nodded and slashed his pipe: "Well, help Kawai take care of his young grandson, clear downstream rivers or clear the weeds in the farmland?"
"Then choose someone with a higher reward!"
Uzumaki Naruto stood beside Kakashi Hahaki and raised his own eyebrows.
Sarutobi Hizun glanced at him and couldn't help but say, "Naruto, there are many people in the village who need help. Every mission will always need a ninja to complete. If everyone is picky, those who need help will be very anxious."
"But the difficulty of the task is related to rewards, right?"
Naruto Uzumaki pushed his ninja guard and looked at the third generation of Naruto and whispered: "What's more, I have become a ninja. The living expenses distributed to orphans in the village will be stopped this month, and it is inevitable that I need entrusted compensation to support my life."
Sarutobi Hinata paused when he heard this, looked through the task book in his hand, picked out one of the papers and said, "Is that so? There happened to be a long backlog of task commissions here, because the environment there was too troublesome, and I couldn't stop myself from completing it."
"It just so happens that it is also the D-level mission that your team can accept at present. It will clear the river channel downstream of the Nanhe River, and the maximum reward is 10,000 taels."
"Although the client is gone, the remuneration will still be paid in full."
Nanga River is the Konoha River.
After hearing this name, Uchiha Sasuke's face changed suddenly, but looking at Naruto Uzumaki's calm expression, he finally didn't say anything to stop him.
After the seventh squad arrived at the lower reaches of the Nanga River, Haruno Sakura couldn't help but cover her nose. The smell here was so scented. A thick tree trunk blocked the river surface, blocking the garbage that continued to float downwards, and many flying insects were generated.
Obviously not only that, there should be overgrown weeds underwater, because they can all see some lush aquatic plants showing their heads on the river surface, growing densely on the garbage.
The smell is strong and it feels sour.
Kakashi Haki sighed and said with emotion: "It seems that it is even more difficult than the ordinary garbage picking task! No wonder he has never been willing to deal with this commission."
"I shouldn't have listened to Naruto if I had known it!"
Sakura stretched out her palm and squirted the air in front of her nose, her little face turned pale: "Even if it's great to do some tasks such as running errands and sending letters to find pets, it's not suitable for me to date Sasuke and I here!"
“…”
Uchiha Sasuke's face turned black. He glanced at the unmoved Uzumaki Naruto and said, "This location has always smelled bad. I rarely get close to here. I remember that my father once mentioned that he would issue a task commission for this..."
The Uchiha clan has always been arrogant and cleans the river and picks up garbage. No matter what, it is impossible for the Uchiha clan to solve this problem.
But unexpectedly, the commission issued by the former patriarch of the Uchiha clan was piled up in the village until Uchiha had only one orphan left, and it was not completed.
Many years have passed, Konoha has never dealt with it.
Haki Kakashi seemed to know something. He pointed to his arm and sighed: "My wound has not healed yet. The doctor told me not to get wet. It seems that this task can only be done by you three..."
Haruno Sakura: "..."
Uchiha Sasuke: "…"
Naruto Uzumaki nodded indifferently, and began to seal with his fingers: "Multiple Shadow Cluster Technique!"
Thousands of shadow clones stood densely in the space where they were. No matter how many times they had seen this scene again, they still did not delay their surprised expressions when they saw this scene again.
Haki Kakashi was stunned: "..."
Haruno Sakura widened her eyes and looked at a group of Uzumaki Naruto's shadow clones packing their clothes, saying happily: "It seems that Naruto can complete this task alone!"
"I'll help too..."
Sasuke rolled up his pants and sleeves and whispered: "This place is not far from our clan's territory... and... it was also my father's entrustment during his lifetime."
"Then...I'll come too!"
Haruno Sakura rolled up her sleeves and gritted her teeth to choose to follow Sasuke's footsteps, but looking at her expression, she couldn't be called particularly beautiful.
The sun is slowly rising and the sun is getting stronger and stronger.
The smell downstream of Nanga River has become increasingly unpleasant.
After cleaning up all the garbage, Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke worked together to push the thick tree trunk to the bank of the river. Just as they were relieved, Haruno Sakura's screams came not far away.
Several people from the seventh class rushed towards her position and hit the girl with nervous pink hair head-on. She looked at her teammates, with tears hanging on the corners of her eyes, pointing to the cliff not far away and crying: "There...there are...there are...the corpses..."
"alert!"
Haki Kakashi left a sentence and rushed over with a quick step!
Because there is a ninja in the team, he has to be cautious. Since Konoha was founded, there have been many spies who sneaked into Konoha.
If a murder occurs here, it is definitely not a trivial matter.
However, when Haki Kakashi saw the corpse, his expression gradually became stiff. He turned his head and slowly looked at Sasuke.
Uchiha Sasuke was shocked: "Teacher Kakashi, who is the dead person? What happened?"
"Come and have a look!"
Haki Kakashi rubbed his white hair.
Under the shaded cliff, dense weeds and shrubs grew, and a ninja body dressed in Anbu costume lay there, emitting an unbearable stench.
His body has gradually weathered. Perhaps because of the preservation location, no birds and beasts came to gnaw on his bones, and even a smile could be seen on his face.
Haki Kakashi looked at Uchiha Sasuke who was walking slowly and his eyes gradually became dull, and explained in a low voice: "A preliminary judgment is that the river should have washed him here, because it is close to water here and there is only a cliff above, so it has been preserved..."
Uchiha Sasuke slowly knelt in front of the corpse, two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks, and he sobbed in a low voice: "Brother Shimizu..."
Haruno Sakura's eyes were puzzled, "Teacher Kakashi?"
Haki Kakashi sighed and pulled Sasuke's body up: "Sasuke, this matter needs to be reported to the village. Shimizu is the Uenin in the village. He has been missing for five years and was actually sneaked into the village and assassinated. This is not a trivial matter..."
"I know who the murderer is."
Uchiha Sasuke clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and his face gradually became ferocious: "At the beginning, many people in our clan knew that he killed Brother Shishui!"
"For the sake of strength, he killed everyone!"
"It must be him!"
