[TL/n: I know that it will be reach so here's the advance extra chapter for reaching 1k Stones.]

"Chapter 8 is finally done!" ​​

"Damn, it's already evening by now, I'm so tired. Next time, you need to summon two clones at once. Thus we can finish the chapter much faster."

His clones nag him before they disappeared.

"Ah! Wait a sec—"

Akabane just wanted them not to disappear at the same time, but…

Poof!

Following the sound of the disappearance, the backlash of working his clones to their limit comes back at him all at once.

"Ahh, Damn!"

Akabane wants to scold his ancestors, those two rebellious clones of his definitely did it on purpose because of him resting while they were working to retaliate against him.

I'm going to pass out anytime soon…

He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head. Then he laid to rest on his bed.

"Argh.. two clones were still too much.."

70 points of chakra still weren't enough for him to control two clones at the same time, and he had reached his limit when they had gone.

"My son? who are you talking to?"

Akabane's father's voice came from downstairs.

"I was just talking to myself, father."

Akabane replied while rubbing his forehead.

"Since you're the disciples of Danzo, it's likely that you'll have a mission for tomorrow. Go to bed early, son."

His father said through the door.

"Yes, father."

Then Akabane followed his father's instructions and immediately go to sleep.

Akabane woke up early today. With his head no longer hurts.

"Having high points on chakra is really useful. I'll need to exchange more points into chakra later."

Akabane said in his heart.

When he just left his house, Akabane saw Shimi walking slowly on the side of the streets.

"Heyy, Shimi! It feels like deja vu, are you late again?"

Akabane was surprised.

"Oh, oi Akaba.. look who's talking..?"

Shimi sneered.

"Ahaha, but you were late last time, right?"

Akabane said lightly while the two of them walked towards the Hokage's office.

"And whose fault do you think it is ?"

The first and the last day that he was late was on his graduation day, it left a mark when he thought of it.

"Late means late, doesn't matter once or several times since it's all  the same."

"Well, see you then!"

Akabane speeded up and left Shimi behind.

Shimi was stunned, and then wondered what time is it now?

I don't want to be late again!

Shimi swiftly quickened his pace and tried to catch up with Akabane.

"Wait for a second. I'm supposed to go training today!"

 

After he ran a few steps, he gradually thought about it.

 

We just got our team. We're supposed to be training right now. Why did Akabane go to the Hokage's Office?

"Is it a mission…?"

After thinking about it he then looked in the direction where Akabane had left with some sympathy "it must be hard for Akaba being in team 7 with Danzo-sama as their leader, even someone like him is working hard."

If Akabane heard this, he couldn't agree more.

A teacher like Danzo would bring him a lifetime of misery.

As soon as Akabane arrived at the Hokage's Office, he didn't have time to catch his breath. Danzo had already waited with the mission scroll. And there were Murasaki and Sakumo too.

"This is your mission, assist the patrolling on the border."

Danzo said lightly.

"What? Isn't Gennin usually helping with a small task within the village?"

Akabane was shocked. This mission was too much for them.

"It's just a C-level mission. I've seen your capability, and it's enough to take on this mission."

Danzo didn't bother by Akabane's complaint, after reading his comic, he knew that Akabane was smart and deceitful. The only drawback is his laziness.

He still got room to grow. He only needs to give him a "little" push.

Danzo walked slowly, heading out of the village.

As the one who maintained security on Konoha, Danzo always travels outside the village, this behavior of him attracting lots of unwanted attention along the way.

Walking to the gate, Danzo took out his pass permit and the mission scroll.

"Danzo-sama, you want to participate in border patrolling?"

"Yes."

Danzo nodded coldly, then glanced at his disciples behind him.

The gatekeeper, who was a chuunin looked at Danzo's disciples, wrote down their names one by one on the travel list, and then allowed them to pass.

"You can take your leave Danzo-sama."

By handing in the pass, it means that they can leave Konoha.

Danzo nodded slightly, and with team 7 on his trail, they walked toward outside the village.

"I've never left the village, so this is my first time."

Murasaki said with emotion.

Murasaki wasn't someone talented like Orochimaru or Akabane, but he can reach his current level through constant training since young, and it can be said that Murasaki hasn't recovered much from yesterday's battle.

They are still children after all, except for Akabane…

Danzo observed his disciples secretly, except for Akabane. Everyone was very curious about the outside world. Even Sakumo wandered curiously like a lost child kept staring at him, but Akabane looks like it doesn't bother him at all.

He is not curious about the outside world. After all, he once was an adult…

"Sensei, where are we going?"

They have been walking for a few hours now.

Akabane just couldn't help to ask, since he already felt stiff on his legs.

"See for yourself."

Danzo did not answer but threw a map.

Akabane took it without saying anything because he knew Danzo would not answer even if he asked.

He will let his disciples experience it themselves…

Looking at it. The map of this era was roughly made, almost ancient, but fortunately, it was similar to the one he knew from the real comic. He carefully identified and finally found their current location.

"How come we have to travel to Uzumaki Village!?"

 Akabane was shocked, and his face turned pale when he knew where they were heading.

Only God knows how long it will take to get from here to the Uzumaki Village.

Danzo is an absolute madman! How can he allow his disciples to travel that far within their third day of becoming a ninja!

"what's wrong?"

Murasaki leaned over curiously, looked at the map, and said in surprise, "Uzumaki Village!"

"What's the matter with your surprise look!"

Akabane looks constipated, and he was struggling to walk after seeing their destination which was not a good thing.

"The country of Vortex which is a very mysterious country."

Sakumo said simply.

"Very Mysterious indeed…"

Although reluctant and want to go back, but without Danzo their leader's consent, Akabane know that it's impossible to retreat.

He is just a newly graduated ninja, and Danzo is the head of the Anbu.

 It will take days for them to go to Uzumaki Village from Konoha. Even a chuunin wouldn't bother going there.

Danzo seemed to be slow, but in fact, he was fast and swift. At first, Akabane could catch up, but Danzo gradually accelerated.

"Danzo wants to test my physique?"

Akabane thought to himself, maintaining the current speed, and after waiting for a long time, he slowly kept up with the pace.

At this time, his teacher and teammates had already left him behind, waiting for him in the woods ahead.

"Come on. You need to keep up."

 Danzo's eyes were cold as if seeing through Akabane's thoughts.

 This is psychological warfare.

 His physique has never been exposed, even Danzo doesn't know what level he has reached in the physique. To be precise, Akabane himself doesn't know the limit of his 24 points of the physique.

After another gauging, Danzo found that Akabane really couldn't catch up, so he gives up assessing him.

He slows down a bit, letting Akabane catch up.

"Danzo took us to the vicinity of the Uzumaki Village, just for a mission?"

"It will never be that simple."

He thought to himself, knowing the nature of Danzo.

"Could it be that he wants to risk our lives?"

Akabane was surprised and even more shocked.

Danzo hasn't yet created the roots, but the root squad already exists. According to his training method, if his strength reaches a certain level, they could be ordered to do the assassination.

Ninja, who was coldblooded, was truly an asset.

But Akabane doesn't want trouble, let alone killing.
