Chapter 34: Izayoi's Strength, the First C-Rank Mission

Perhaps because his eyes matured, Izayoi's Tenseigan, the skill that was created when there was the initial fetal movement, not only differed from that of Toneri Otsutsuki, but was also very stable.

Even if his body is severely injured, the strength of the Tenseigan would not disappear.

When his chakra and pupil ability are depleted, his Tenseigan would deteriorate back into Byakugan.

After the Byakugan had transformed into the Tenseigan, the eyes continued to pull in the chakra that the brain had emitted, just like recharging.

When the energy was finished, the second fetal movement would happen.

Just like the Byakugan pulling in for two years before it transformed into the Tenseigan, Izayoi suspected his second fetal movement would not be immediate.

But he was already very happy to awaken the Tenseigan now.

Twelve years old was still childhood, and only now had childhood passed.

Fifteen years old was when he was in the period of adolescence.

At that time, girls were completely inferior to boys.

Even if Izayoi did not do anything, once his body entered the adolescence of fifteen years old, he would cultivate his potential as quickly as Toneri Otsutsuki on the moon.

At the age of nineteen, even without battle experience, it didn't count. Provided he replaced a couple of high-purity Byakugan, he was able to reign over the power of another world.

Toneri Otsutsuki, with only a single red tag, was able to do that, let alone Izayoi, who had several red tags.

Breaking open the Tenseigan at twelve years old was the strongest proof of cheating.

....

"Izayoi, is this your main body now?"

Having made it past the first stage of fetal movement unscathed, Izayoi did come back to the team in the end.

No sooner was he back than Shino Aburame picked up on the difference in his insects, and his eyes went wide in shock when he laid eyes on Izayoi.

The insects. were shaken!

Had Izayoi become this powerful in half a month?

What ninjutsu was he developing?

"Yes, my ninjutsu has been mastered, so I'm back." Izayoi smiled and nodded.

"What kind of ninjutsu are you practicing?"

Since Shino Aburame wore sunglasses and his collar was raised so high, Kurenai Yuhi failed to observe the change in his face, but just wondered what kind of ninjutsu Izayoi had practiced since then.

"Secrets make men more charming."

Izayoi kept extending his index finger and placed it in front of his mouth, leaving all of them hanging, "If there's any possibility, Teacher Kurenai, you'll know. I promise it'll blow your minds."

"Izayoi, has anyone ever told you that you're really obnoxious?"

A huge hashtag appeared on Kurenai Yuhi's forehead.

Izayoi turned to Hinata and asked, "Hinata, am I really obnoxious?"

"No."

Hinata shook her head genuinely.

"You two, are you not a couple?" Kurenai Yuhi complained like her classmates in the ninja academy.

Izayoi smiled in silence, and Hinata's cheeks flushed.

Team Eight continued to carry out D-rank missions following the break.

Occasionally a day, occasionally two or three a day, and occasionally taking a few days off before continuing missions.

Whether it was cleaning up garbage, helping villagers with childcare and farming, etc., Team Eight did a good job and was universally commended by the clients.

Kurenai Yuhi also wanted to share her illusions with Team Eight at this time.

She was, however, rejected by Hinata and Shino Aburame, who only wished to cultivate clan secret techniques.

Izayoi rejected her too.

If he hadn't finished the first fetal movement, Izayoi would have been ready to accept this favor.

His panel was extremely luxurious, and the red tags looked extremely domineering.

In fact, Izayoi, who hadn't awakened the Tenseigan, only heightened his perception and treatment in the past few years, and the red tags didn't significantly boost his fighting strength.

Without the Super Hurricane Chain Ball and jutsu he was training, Izayoi's offensive technique was comprised of only the low-ranking Wind Style left behind by his father and a bit of Fire Style ninjutsu of the Uchiha clan.

With the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique and those ninjutsu, Izayoi did not fear any of the Jonin.

As long as he completed that jutsu, he would become a top-ranking Jonin who would be able to match up against Kage, like Kakashi Hatake.

Izayoi's previous strength was equivalent to Jonin.

Now that he had awakened the Tenseigan and had the two abilities of gravity and repulsion, Izayoi was now Pain, unfamiliar with Planetary Devastation, and equivalent to Kage-level titans.

He no longer lacked anything for attack, defense, and auxiliary techniques.

Accepting Kurenai Yuhi's blessing was unnecessary.

So Kurenai Yuhi, just like in the first novel, was merely a mentor, instructing Team Eight on how to become capable ninjas.

So time elapsed until May 1st.

That morning, Team Eight gathered at the usual spot.

"Your performance last month was great, and there wasn't even a single negative report of your missions."

When Kurenai Yuhi came, she had pleasant news for Team Eight, "As a reward, I'll take you to receive a higher-level mission today."

When they heard this, Hinata's face lit up.

If he took off his sunglasses, Shino Aburame's eyes would also lighten a bit, and the corners of his mouth below his collar would curve upwards slightly.

"How about a C-rank mission?" Izayoi inquired with awareness.

"Yes."

Kurenai Yuhi nodded on and went on, "Genin can usually only have D-rank missions. Only veteran Genin or Genin led by Jonin teachers can perform C-rank missions."

"Because unlike D-rank missions, which are just errands, most C-rank missions will be beyond the village and could encounter unfamiliar enemies, which can be fatal."

"Lazily talking, you've graduated only just more than a month ago and are not qualified to carry out C-rank missions. Nevertheless, as your work up until now has been good, I'll give you a reward."

"Okay, to the Hokage Building."

Kurenai Yuhi brought the Team Eight in anticipatory mood to the Hokage Office in the Hokage Building.

"Here to receive a C-rank mission?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was smoking a pipe, puffing as he looked at Izayoi and Hinata, taller than their peers, and was slightly in a daze.

Those two plump little children had grown so tall, had they?

Remembering when Izayoi fought Sasuke Uchiha, even though the latter had employed Sharingan, he was completely under control, Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, although your Team Eight has been established for more than a month now, every mission has been praised by the clients. Since the Jonin teacher feels you're prepared, I'll arrange a C-rank mission for you."

After chatting, Hiruzen Sarutobi drew out a large scroll from under the table.

Unrolling the scroll, Hiruzen Sarutobi's finger traced gently on the scroll, and soon stopped.

"Your eyes are great. There is a mission here that's very suitable for you."

Hiruzen Sarutobi puffed out a mouth of smoke and spoke in slow words, "Some time back, there was a group of miners who visited Konoha to do some business. They are afraid that they will be robbed by bandits and thief ninjas during their return journey, so they asked us Konoha to escort them back to the Land of Rivers."

"This mission will be assigned to you. Is it okay?" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Kurenai Yuhi.

"Yes."

Kurenai Yuhi nodded respectfully.

Izayoi and the other two said nothing.

Hiruzen Sarutobi wrapped his fingers around the chakra flame and pressed down on the scroll.

BOOM... A small cloud of smoke disappeared.

A one-handed scroll appeared in Hiruzen Sarutobi's hand.

Hiruzen Sarutobi flung the scroll to Kurenai Yuhi and ordered, "This contains the client's information. Go negotiate with him."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Respectfully again, Kurenai Yuhi answered.

Then she led Team Eight away from the Hokage Office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said nothing to Team Eight from beginning to end, and there wasn't a single person in Team Eight as crazy as Naruto Uzumaki.

Leaving the Hokage Building, Kurenai Yuhi unfolded the scroll and took Team Eight to a hotel.

"Wait here for me. I'll go negotiate with the client."

Kurenai Yuhi left behind these words and proceeded to a carriage parked outside the hotel to speak with the person in charge of the carriage guard.

Soon enough, the person in charge led Kurenai Yuhi into the hotel.

If you looked closely, you would notice that the carriage also had a flag with the word "iron" spelled out on it.

The place was the Land of Rivers. It was certain that the name "iron" had nothing to do with the Land of Iron.

Mining crew, it is sure to be iron ore.

It seemed that it was stated in the book that the Land of Rivers had a complex geographical condition, and dense mountains and forests existed. The people seemed to live on the mountains or at the foot of the mountains, and the villages also became known as mountain villages.

Izayoi and the other two thought in their minds.
