"Agh... there's no choice.
Seeing a discouraged Kurenai Yūhi and Asuma Sarutobi, Shinku Yūhi sighed with resignation.
"Today, we will go to the Mission Hall to see if there's an appropriate C-rank mission for our team."
"Eh?!"
"Really?"
Upon hearing Shinku Yūhi's words, Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yūhi's faces instantly lit up with surprise.
Are we finally going to start accepting C-rank missions?
Awesome!
Unlike D-rank missions, C-rank missions not only had higher rewards, but their danger level was several times greater.
Escort missions, hunting ferocious beasts, delivering confidential documents...
These were missions in which they would very likely have to fight for their lives against others!
"Let's go."
Seeing that Mirai Uchiha's expression remained unchanged, a trace of relief crossed Shinku Yūhi's face.
Originally, he had thought that Mirai, being a member of the Uchiha clan, would give him a lot of headaches.
But after getting to know him, he realized that Mirai was actually the team member who caused him the least trouble.
Having such an excellent disciple made Shinku Yūhi very happy.
Under Shinku Yūhi's guidance, the group arrived at the Mission Hall.
The place was crowded.
The ninja world had become increasingly unstable recently, and as the most powerful ninja village, Konoha's mission volume had also skyrocketed.
"Hello, could you check if there is any appropriate C-rank mission for our team?" Shinku Yūhi asked directly as he approached the counter.
The person in charge, seeing Shinku Yūhi, immediately smiled.
"Ah, it's Shinku-sama, please wait a moment."
In no time, the official took a mission sheet from a thick book.
"In the northern part of the Land of Fire, a small village has sent a request. They say there is a band of bandits causing trouble in the area.
"Please take a look at the mission details."
Shinku Yūhi took the mission sheet from the official's hands and, after quickly scanning it, nodded.
"Alright, thanks for the help."
"No need to thank me."
Just as they were talking, Obito Uchiha suddenly appeared, running toward them.
"Hey, you! Didn't you just say there weren't any missions suitable for us?
"Why don't you assign us a mission to eliminate bandits?"
Upon hearing Obito Uchiha's voice, the official waved his hand impatiently.
"The mission assignments are based on a detailed evaluation. If you're not satisfied, simply don't accept it."
"What?! Damn you!"
Seeing the angry expression on Obito Uchiha's face, Mirai Uchiha sighed slightly.
The strong devour the weak. It's the same law everywhere.
The more power a ninja has, the better resources they can obtain.
That's why... in the world of Naruto, aside from having a "System," the most important thing is legacy.
"Obito, maybe it's because your team's strength isn't enough, which is why they gave us a mission like this."
"When you get good enough, sooner or later, you'll also be able to accept missions like this," said Asuma Sarutobi with an air of superiority as he looked at a frustrated Obito.
"Hmph!"
"You're only bragging because you're the Hokage's son. Don't try to act all high and mighty with me!" Obito Uchiha retorted without holding back, directly hitting Asuma's weak point.
"What? You, loser, want to fight?"
"Whenever you want! Do you think I'm afraid of you?!"
"Damn it!"
"Idiot!"
Seeing that the two seemed about to start fighting, Minato Namikaze and Rin Nohara hurried to intervene.
"Shinku-senpai, I'm really sorry. Obito is a bit impulsive, I'll make sure to teach him manners," Minato Namikaze apologized with a smile.
Rin Nohara, on her part, grabbed Obito Uchiha by the ear.
"Obito, I've already told you not to cause trouble!"
"Ouch!"
"I got it, Rin."
"Take it easy…"
In front of Rin Nohara, Obito Uchiha didn't have an ounce of bad temper.
"Idiot," muttered Kakashi Hatake, unable to hold back as he watched the scene.
He really didn't understand why such an excellent ninja as Minato-sensei would choose such a fool as Obito Uchiha to be his student.
"Kakashi, who are you calling a loser?"
Obito Uchiha's anger, which had just calmed down, flared up again, and he shouted at the top of his lungs:
"It's because of your depressing attitude that we only get missions like 'a widow is afraid of thunder and wants someone to watch over her at night'!"
"Excuse me... did you want to accept the mission to eliminate the bandits?"
A man dressed in a tight green suit with a thick beard approached them.
Upon seeing the man, Mirai Uchiha's heart skipped a beat.
That distinctive outfit...
The man in front of me must be Might Duy, right?
"That's right, why?" Obito Uchiha asked, looking at Might Duy.
"Ha... what a coincidence. It turns out I have a perfect mission to exchange with you."
"Really?" Obito Uchiha's eyes lit up.
"Of course it's true."
"Listen to the advice of this old man: that mission is too big for you, you can't handle it. Only an experienced ninja like me can complete such a task perfectly," said Might Duy with an air of righteousness.
Upon hearing Might Duy's words, Obito Uchiha looked at Minato Namikaze.
Minato Namikaze nodded slightly.
A mission to eliminate bandits was an excellent way for newly promoted genin to get used to the idea of killing without taking too much risk. It was a good training mission.
He had no reason to reject such a request.
Seeing that Minato Namikaze didn't oppose it, Obito Uchiha exchanged the mission sheet with Might Duy.
"Sir, you're a great person! From today on, I consider you my friend!" Obito Uchiha said with a happy smile.
What good luck!
Finally, I won't have to do those annoying D-rank missions anymore.
I can finally show what I'm capable of!
After Obito Uchiha and his team left, Might Duy approached Mirai Uchiha.
"You must be Mirai Uchiha, right?"
"Guy talks about you a lot. He says he considers you the rival he will chase for his entire life," said Might Duy with a familiar smile.
"Actually... comparatively, Kakashi is a more suitable rival for Guy," said Mirai Uchiha calmly.
Being Guy's target to surpass wasn't something to be happy about.
That role suited Kakashi better.
"So, if he can't even surpass Kakashi, he doesn't have the right to challenge you?"
"Worthy of the genius who was able to defeat Kakashi himself! Just thinking about it makes my blood boil! This is the flame of youth!"
"I'll pass your message to Guy. I won't bother you anymore!"
With that, Might Duy took his mission sheet and walked away quickly.
Seeing his back, the corner of Mirai Uchiha's mouth twitched.
Is that what I meant to say?
"Is that the legendary 'Eternal Genin'? Honestly, he seems a bit silly," commented Asuma Sarutobi.
"Asuma, never underestimate anyone," said Shinku Yūhi with a grave voice.
He had felt a dangerous aura emanating from Might Duy.
That man was definitely not as simple as he seemed.
"I'm just speaking the truth," replied Asuma, unconvinced.
At his age, he was still a genin. What could be so admirable about someone like that?
"Mirai, what do you think?"
Hearing Asuma's response, Shinku Yūhi once again turned his gaze to Mirai Uchiha.
As a reincarnated person, Mirai Uchiha of course knew the strength of Might Duy.
He was the tough guy who almost annihilated the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
So without thinking twice, he said directly:
"Ignorance isn't an obstacle to a ninja's survival. Arrogance, however, is."
