"What is it?" Obito asked Sawada Kazuya with anticipation.
"It's to serve as the princess's guard, a mission issued by the Snow Country." Sawada Kazuya recalled and answered briefly.
"Guarding, isn't that almost the same as rescuing the princess? We'll accept the mission." Obito immediately wanted to take on the mission.
In Obito's opinion, since he is a bodyguard, he will definitely encounter enemies. After encountering the enemy, it means rescuing the princess.
"Unfortunately, it's not possible." After flipping through the scroll, Sawada Kazuya shook his head with a regretful expression.
"Why not? Uncle Sawada, you are kidding me. You told us and now you say it's not possible." Obito was anxious.
This was the closest he had ever gotten to being the protagonist of a ninja novel.
"Because the mission level is above B?" Kakashi asked after analyzing it.
Since Kazuya Sawada mentioned it, there must be such a task. Since they don't accept it, it can only be a problem on their side.
Sawada Kazuya nodded and explained, "I just confirmed the mission level. It's an A-level mission. If you want to do an A-level mission, you need Minato Jonin to lead the team."
Obito's face instantly fell because Minato had just gone to the battlefield to carry out a mission not long ago.
"Uncle Sawada, please be flexible. You know the strength of our team." Obito didn't want to give up this opportunity.
"There's no way to make an exception. If I really let you take this job, you'll never see me here again next time." Kazuya Sawada said that he wanted to work for a few more years.
Obito sighed. He was no longer a newbie in missions, so he knew a little bit about Kazuya Sawada's difficulties.
"Obito, why don't we change the mission? Minato-sensei probably won't be able to come back in a short time." Nohara Rin suggested.
"I know this, but..." Obito's expression was very conflicted.
Not only is there a mission he wants to do like protecting the princess, but it is also a country he has never been to. This mission is really tempting to Obito.
"Is it necessary to have Minato Sensei? It should be fine as long as there is a jonin leading the team, right?" Kakashi asked after thinking for a moment.
He saw that Obito really wanted to go. Also, according to Kakashi's impression, the Snow Country was an island country far to the north, and the war between the big ninja villages would not affect there, which meant that it was unlikely that any accidents would happen.
Sawada Kazuya nodded and replied, "Other jonin will do. An A-rank mission requires at least a special jonin to lead the team."
After listening to Sawada Kazuya's words, Obito's originally dim eyes brightened up again. Minato was on a mission and couldn't come, but Mu Yue was in Konoha, and had just finished the special training at the Ninja School and was resting.
"Let's go find Teacher Mu Yue." Obito turned around and walked out of the Hokage building and headed towards Mu Yue's house.
Looking at Obito's hurried pace, Kakashi shook his head and quickly followed him.
Actually, Kakashi wanted to ask other jonin he knew. Obito didn't think too much about it, but Kakashi knew that the ninja school would start in a few days.
Seeing that the two of them had left, Nohara Lin also followed them out of the Hokage Building.
Because he was worried that the mission would be taken away by someone else, Obito ran forward, wanting to get to Mu Yue's house as quickly as possible.
When he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen and Obito on the road, he didn't even have time to say hello.
"Why do I feel like there's a little blood on the Third Hokage's nose? Am I seeing things?" Obito was a little confused. Who was so powerful that he could make the Hokage bleed from his nose in Konoha?
Obito didn't think too much. What he wanted most now was to take on the mission as soon as possible.
With the help of breathing techniques, Obito ran very fast and soon arrived at Mu Yue's house.
"Teacher Mu Yue, are you there?" Obito shouted loudly outside the door.
Obito was lucky, as Mu Yue was studying sealing techniques at home at this time.
Mu Yue put down the scroll in his hand and opened the door and asked, "Obito, what do you want?"
"Teacher Mu Yue, can you take us to do a mission? There is a mission to protect the princess that I really want to do, but that mission is A-level and must be led by a senior ninja." Obito told him his purpose and reasons.
Mu Yue looked thoughtful. Since the special training had added a week of classes, although the holiday special training had just ended, it was now very close to the opening day of the Ninja School.
"Which country's princess is she?" Mu Yue did not agree immediately, but asked about the specific content of the task.
Generally, missions like protecting princesses or national dignitaries are S-level or even require well-known strong men from Konoha to take the mission. A-level missions are relatively rare, because a special jonin can take an A-level mission with a few mid- and low-level ninjas, so the lower limit of the team's strength is relatively low.
Mu Yue thought of three possibilities. The first was that the country had already arranged protection forces and then issued the commission to Konoha just to feel at ease. The second was that the princess was not taken seriously. The third was that the mission itself was not dangerous, and issuing the commission was for greater stability.
"From the Snow Country." Obito told Mu Yue everything he knew.
When Mu Yue heard this name, many memories instantly appeared in his mind. His memory is very good now, so he can still recall what he had seen a long time ago.
Mu Yue instantly ruled out the second possibility. According to her memories, the princess named Fenghua Xiaoxue seemed to be the only heir to the Snow Kingdom, so it was impossible for her not to be valued.
"Could it be that Kakashi is going to the Snow Country for this mission?" Mu Yue thought of the story of the Snow Country in which Kakashi had been to the Snow Country twice. The first time he was a teenager, and the second time he was on a mission with Team 7. He had become a reliable adult ninja.
The first time Kakashi was on a mission in the Snow Country, he fought against the Snow Ninja and rescued Fuuka Koyuki. The second time, he led Team 7 to help Fuuka Koyuki retake the Snow Country.
Then Mu Yue shook her head. According to the communication between Kakashi and the Snow Ninja, Kakashi was already a copy ninja who could copy ninjutsu when he first arrived in the Snow Country. This meant that Obito had already turned evil at that time, but now Obito is only nine years old, so the time obviously doesn't match.
"The coup d'état would have happened at least a few years later."
Mu Yue analyzed the known information and felt that the third possibility was the most reliable, followed by the first, and the second was completely impossible.
"Teacher Mu Yue, why don't I ask other senior ninjas? After all, you still have work to do at the ninja school." Kakashi spoke when he saw Mu Yue looking thoughtful.
"Oh, yes, it's already September." After Kakashi's reminder, Obito also thought about the start of the ninja school.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Mu Yue, I forgot about this."
Obito gave an embarrassed smile, he really hadn't thought about this, he was only thinking about the mission.
"I have a way to deal with the Ninja School. You wait here for a moment, I'll go pack my things." Mu Yue finally agreed to Obito's request.
According to the plot, the coup in the Snow Country will not happen now, but Mu Yue will not blindly believe the plot, because facts have proved that the plot is already changing.
The Snow Ninjas are quite powerful. If it were an ordinary Jonin plus Obito and the other three, they might really be in trouble if an accident happened.
"That's great!" An excited smile instantly appeared on Obito's face. With Mu Yue by his side, he didn't worry about any accidents at all.
After hearing this, Kakashi's expression became more relaxed. It really made him feel safer to do the mission with Mu Yue.
"Teacher Mu Yue, thank you so much for your help." Nohara Lin felt that Mu Yue was really gentle.
After sealing some necessary items into the scroll, Mu Yue brought Obito and the others back to the Hokage Building.
Obito was very worried that someone would get ahead of him in the mission, so as soon as he arrived at the Hokage Building, he immediately asked Kazuya Sawada, and was relieved to learn that the mission was still there.
"We have accepted this mission." Under Obito's expectant gaze, Mu Yue accepted the escort mission.
Kazuya Sawada immediately completed the registration for Mu Yue and handed the information to Mu Yue. He could see that Obito really wanted to do this task.
"Great!" Obito cheered immediately. He seemed to have seen the beautiful princess and the powerful enemy, and their team would defeat the powerful enemy, rescue the princess and finally become the hero of the country.
Although he hasn't set out yet, Obito has already imagined himself writing an autobiography when he becomes successful in the future.

When Obito was still at the bottom of the list, he loved reading ninja novels and was envious of the various experiences of the protagonists in the novels. So for Obito it didn't matter who the princess was, but it was important to save the princess because that would make him a hero.
Then, based on the information provided by Kazuya Sawada, Mu Yue found Santaifu Asama who came to Konoha to issue a commission.
"My name is Hanyu Muyue, and I'm the Konoha jonin who has taken on the task of protecting the princess of the Snow Country." Muyue briefly introduced herself.
Asama-san looked at Mu Yue for a few times and nodded. However, when he saw Obito and others behind Mu Yue, he frowned and said, "They are not even ten years old. The Snow Country is very cold."
Although Asama felt that the princess would not be in danger, he felt that it was a bit inappropriate to let three foreign children go to the cold snow country.
The environment of the Snow Country and the Fire Country is so different that Asama Santao feels that the weather in the Fire Country is like heaven and is very suitable for human habitation.
Before Mu Yue could explain, Obito was unconvinced and said, "Don't look at our young age. We are the elites of Konoha and have been promoted to Chunin. The weather can't affect us."
"They are all Chunins?" Asama Santaifu was a little surprised. He was not completely ignorant about ninjas. He still knew something about the ninja's hierarchy system.
"Although they are indeed a little young, they are all qualified Konoha ninjas." Mu Yue also spoke.
Asama Santaiu was also a man who knew the rules. After confirming that there was no problem, he asked his men to pack up and prepare to leave.
Since the Snow Country is an island country, Mu Yue and his friends can only take a boat to the port on the east coast of the Fire Country.
However, these three ladies of Asama were already prepared, and Mu Yue and the others only needed to walk to the port and board the ship.
Although Obito was a little unhappy about being looked down upon, through communication on the road he discovered that Asama Santaifu was not the kind of person who looked down on children, he was just worried about them, so the communication on the road was quite pleasant.
"Brother Santayu, is the princess of your Snow Country pretty?" Obito asked curiously when they were about to board the ship.
He had never seen a real princess, and the image of princesses in his mind all came from novels.
"Haha, of course she is beautiful. She is the cutest princess." Asama Santaifu replied with a laugh.
"She's definitely not as cute as Rin." Obito retorted in his heart.
Of course, he only dared to say this in his heart; in reality he didn't dare to be so direct.
"It's so boundless." Nohara Lin looked at the endless sea, put her hands behind her back and smiled. It was her first time to come to the beach.
At this moment, a breeze suddenly came, gently blowing through Nohara Lin's hair and lifting up the hem of Nohara Lin's pink dress.
Obito was standing on the left side of Nohara Rin. In the near distance was Nohara Rin's cute profile and her slightly lifted hair and skirt. In the far distance was a large ship and the endless blue ocean. Obito was stunned for a moment.
After reacting, Obito took out his camera and took a picture of Nohara Rin. At this moment, he was glad that he brought the camera with him.
"What's wrong?" Nohara Lin turned sideways and looked at Obito and asked.
"Nothing, I just think the beach is beautiful and I need to take more pictures." Obito waved his hand and replied with a slightly blushing face.
Nohara Lin nodded in agreement and said, "Indeed, it's not easy to come here, we can take more photos as a souvenir."
After taking a quick photo, Mu Yue and the others boarded the boat and headed for the Snow Kingdom.
Since it was his first time to take a boat on the sea, Obito was very excited at first, but he soon calmed down because there was nothing special on the boat.
Although it's not special, Obito is very happy to have Nohara Rin around him and keeps chatting with her.
Mu Yue talked with Asama Santaifu about the specific details of this mission.
"The Snow God Festival, the most important festival in our country, will be held in October. Your escort mission will be over after the festival is over." Asama Sandayu explained.
The Snow God Festival is an important festival that has been passed down for a long time in the Snow Country. On this day, the people of the Snow Country will pray to the Snow God to send less snow so that they can catch more fat fish.
Asama Santaifu, who is familiar with the history of the Snow Country, even knows that hundreds of years ago, the daimyo had to worship in person, but this is not popular now.
Mu Yue nodded and understood the specific content of the task.
It's actually no different from a normal escort mission, except for the characters and locations.
Mu Yue was a little curious. Since there was a Snow Ninja Village in the Snow Country, why did they have to go all the way to Konoha to issue commissions? And the daimyo should have some power around him.
Mu Yue thought about it and felt that this question was not important, because the money for issuing an A-level task was just a drop in the bucket for a daimyo, even if it was a daimyo of a small country, so there was no real need for a reason.
