"I HAD ENOUGH WITH THIS STUPID MISSIONS!!! GIVE US SOMETHING IMPORTANT AND AWESOME!!!"

That's something Naruto would probably say, but I personally don't have any problems with dumb and easy missions.

I mean, steady payment for low effort - how can you not like it?

When Tenten started doing missions last year she also didn't mind dumb missions, since she doesn't like traveling for days.

Well, she got more mature and chill overall, so her character is now more similar to how she was supposed to be.

Some things a different though.

When it comes to me, she isn't as chill: like when the daughter of a shop-owner, who I see frequently when my mum sends me shopping, gave me a present and said that I look like a cool vagabond.

When Tenten heard of that, she rushed to the girl to "talk" to her.

After that, the normally cheerful girl was always fearful when seeing me.

Anyway, since Tenten graduated last year, I don't see her often anymore.

Especially since Guy always takes 'over the top' long missions, to let them "experience their youth".

Something Tenten really hates.

I'm really glad that Hayate-sensei isn't a weirdo and is overall a reasonable person.

"Lord Hokage, we are here again to select a mission..."

"Oh Hayate, it's you again? Your team is really fast when it comes to completing missions...how about this mission: helping to dig sweet potatoes..."

"Koff Lord Hokage, to speak the truth, I think it's time for my team to get some real fighting experience...do you have something with non-dangerous opponents like hoodlums of bandits?"

'Well Hayate-sensei was always someone who believed in the effectiveness of learning by doing...' - Eiji

"We have here a D-rank mission, where some bandits build a hideout near a nearby village and sometimes come to extort goods from them. The bandits are small in number and pretty weak. Your mission would be to arrest them. Would this mission be acceptable?"

"Yes this was something I was looking for, thank you, Lord Hokage. Team eleven, get ready for a small journey outside the village, we will meet up at the gate in 3 hours!"

"Yes, sensei!"

"Hey Eiji, can you wear your headband normally and stop embarrassing us?" - Kotaru

"I don't think he is embarrassing us and if he wants to wear it like that I don't really see a problem. In any case, if there was a problem, sensei would have already said something..." - Arina

They were talking about how his headband hanged on his sword-sheath.

With the panda pendant as well, his sword was flamboyantly decorated.

Eiji ignored Kotaru, who for some reason always tried to find things to criticize about Eiji.

'Has this four-eyes nothing better to do? He should really find some hobbies like I have for example...wait I also don't have any hobbies!'

Hayate was the last person to arrive.

Of course, for a mission with only some no-name bandits, he didn't need to prepare much.

Instead, he used the time to meet up with his lover.

But this is of course something he wouldn't tell them.

"Koff, is everyone ready? Even though you guys are leaving Konoha probably for the first time, the village isn't far and it should only take us about 4 hours to get there."

Since it wasn't a mission where every second counts, they traveled normally by foot instead of jumping through trees.

At a bandit hideout.

A bandit was kneeling of what looked like their boss.

"I'M SORRY BOSS, I PROMISE I WON'T DO THE SAME THING AG -"

The "boss" grabbed the head of this bandit with one hand.

He then crushed it like a melon and blood and brain-matter splashed everywhere.

"I think I spoke clearly when I said that I absolutely won't tolerate anything which goes against the orders. Every one of you who has the same idea like this one here will end up the same. I hope this time it was understandable for you retards..." - he spoke it apathetically and he looked like he didn't care at all, even though his words may make one believe the opposite.

The spectating bandits replied fearfully: "We understand, sir!"
