Chapter 81
Taiyi did not go straight to the big rock in a big way, but used the trees in the forest to hide his figure and kept getting closer to the target location.
After a while, Taiyi hid behind a tree and looked at the big rock not far away. The knowledge he learned in the ninja school was not in vain, and he successfully helped Taiyi get closer to the goal. However, Taiyi was a little confused about what to do next.
The hand holding the dagger was soaked with sweat, and his heart was beating fast. Taiyi’s mouth was a little dry, and Taiyi shivered uncontrollably at the thought of killing his own kind.
“Hey! Kid, your trembling hands can hardly hold the knife. If this continues, you should go home as soon as possible. The profession of ninja is not suitable for you.”
Kyuubi, who had been quiet for several days, suddenly taunted Taichi.
Facing Kyuubi’s ridicule, Taichi wanted to fight back, but he didn’t know how to say it.
This is Taiyi’s biggest shortcoming. In his previous life, Taiyi was an ordinary person and had never killed a chicken. Now that he is allowed to kill people, he needs to do a lot of mental construction.
Seeing that Taiyi didn’t speak, Kyuubi spoke again: “Kid, if you don’t take action, that person will find you.”
Taiyi also understood that it was not a good thing to keep procrastinating. After taking a few deep breaths, Taiyi’s eyes gradually became firm.
After some secret observation, the location of the target was determined.
With a “swish”, Taiyi appeared behind the target. Taiyi used the fastest speed in his life and covered the target’s mouth with his left hand from behind to prevent him from making any sound.
The knife held in his right hand penetrated the target’s neck directly from the right side, and blood spurted out from both sides.
The target began to struggle, Taiyi used force to spin the short knife, and more blood spurted out, splashing onto Taiyi’s face, Taiyi remained expressionless.
After a while, the target stopped struggling. Taiyi slowly pulled out the short knife and stabbed it in the heart.
After confirming that the target was dead, he slowly released his hand.
“Kill someone and…”
Kyuubi watched the whole process inside Taiyi, and was just about to laugh at the fact that killing someone was so bloody, but before he could finish, Taichi started to vomit.
“Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!”
“Hahaha~ I vomited… Hahaha~ I thought you were so powerful that you made blood splatter everywhere, but you actually vomited…”
Kyuubi laughed so hard that he almost burst into tears.
“Ugh…standing…talking…no pain in the back…yikes…this is my first kill.”
After vomiting until there was nothing more to vomit, Taiyi spoke, but he still couldn’t help but retching.
With two “swish” and “swish” sounds, Kakashi and Deer Man arrived at the same time.
Looking at the messy scene, Deerman went directly to the target to confirm again that the target was dead.
Kakashi came to Taiyi and handed Taiyi a kettle. Taiyi took a few sips of the kettle and spat it out with a “wow” sound.
“Spit it out, you’ll get used to it.”
Kakashi patted Taichi on the back.
Then he took out a handkerchief and a small bottle, poured some unknown liquid into the handkerchief, and began to wipe the blood on Taiyi’s body.
“Next time when you assassinate, remember to use a kunai, not a short knife, and don’t be so rough. Just use a kunai to slit the target’s throat. That way the blood will splash forward. Be careful and you won’t get it. It’s all over my body.”
“okay, I get it.”
Kakashi wiped the blood off Taiyi’s body, and Taichi finally recovered.
The deer man handed the polished short knife to Taiyi.
“Although it’s a bit rough, knowing how to last a last hit is a good habit.”
Taiyi took the dagger and wanted to laugh but couldn’t.
I thought killing was an easy thing, but it turned out that it was indeed an easy thing, but the psychological burden was not that easy.
Seemingly sensing that Taichi’s condition was not very good, Kakashi comforted him:
“Taiyi, I know what your purpose is for taking on the mission this time. Now that you have achieved it, if you want to leave, the two of us will accompany you to leave. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”
Deer Man also nodded in time. Although Deer Man didn’t have Taiyi’s big reaction when he killed someone for the first time, he still felt uncomfortable for several days, so he understood Taiyi very well.
Taiyi shook his head and rejected the two’s kindness.
“Strike while the iron is hot. Once you experience this kind of thing the first time, it will be normal the second time. Keep going!”
Kakashi and Shikato looked at each other. Since Taichi said so, the two of course would not object.
The three-person team continued to move toward the mountain, with Deer Man using his Byakugan to conduct reconnaissance.The three of them were very careful. They had already encountered enemies, so they all put their vigilance to the highest level. However, the whole journey up the mountain was calm, and not even the Deer Man’s white eyes noticed anything.
This can’t help but make the three of them suspicious. Could it be that there are only three genin in Yubaba Mountain?
How is it possible, but no new enemies have appeared so far, so the three of them can only be more careful and move towards the top of the mountain.
Finally, when they were approaching the top of the mountain, the deer man made a gesture and the three of them stopped.
“Deerman?” Kakashi asked softly.
“Jounin…two!” Shikato said with an ugly face the information he had seen with his eyes.
Kakashi and Taichi’s eyes widened. This news was so shocking. Two jounin appeared here at the same time. You must know that apart from the five major ninja villages, there are only a handful of small ninja villages with jounin.
This is not good news. Maybe this mission may involve other great ninja villages. Then it is not a B-level mission, but an A-level mission, or even an S-level mission!
Kakashi looked at Shireto solemnly:
“Are you sure they are two jounin?”
The deer man nodded solemnly:
“Judging from the chakra reaction, they are indeed at the Jonin level, but they seem to be guarding a cave. My Byakugan can’t see through the cave.”
“A cave that cannot be penetrated by the Byakugan, guarded by two jounin. Could this be the spring water that Yubaba said?”
Taichi didn’t care about the two Jonin, but he was somewhat interested in the cave that Byakugan couldn’t see through.
“It’s possible, but two jounin are not something we can handle. Besides, we don’t know if there are other enemies in the dark, so I suggest retreating.”
Kakashi compared the strengths of the enemy and ours and gave suggestions.
Hearing Kakashi’s words, Taichi also agreed very much. It was not that he was afraid of these two jonins. Taichi, who had just killed someone, now felt that he was fearless!
The next two jounin in the semi-golden body mode also had to take a break, mainly because they were worried about the safety of Kakashi and Shikato. After all, they did not have the Nine-Tails plug-in.
Deer Man thought for a moment, and finally agreed to retreat. Although Deer Man felt that this mission was a bit anticlimactic, the threat of the two jounin was too great, and his life was still at stake.
After the three people agreed, they began to retreat quietly, for fear of attracting the attention of the two jounin.
“Where are you going? Three little mice?”
A sudden voice sounded, causing Taiyi and the others to break into a cold sweat.
