Chapter 122
"I seem to hear voices. Has anyone been here?" Orochimaru asked as soon as he arrived.
Sasuke's expression remained calm.
"I'm the only one here. Don't worry about it. Come and train with me!"
Orochimaru glanced at him for a few times and vaguely felt that Sasuke was a little unhappy.
However, he was used to Sasuke's bad temper. He laughed twice and didn't care.
"Okay, Sasuke-kun, you are still so impatient!"
When the shadow clone quietly returned to Sakura Haruno, she released the shadow clone, and the memory of the shadow clone returned to the original body.
Sakura Haruno glanced at A Fei who seemed to be unaware of it, and continued on her way.
When the two of them arrived at the Sea Kingdom by boat, it was already a month later.
They first went to the branch base set up by the Akatsuki Organization here, and after understanding the specific situation of the mission, they went to meet up with their employer.
Their employer this time was the Prime Minister of the Moon Kingdom.
The mission requirement is to ensure his personal safety and, if necessary, to help him get rid of people who threaten his life, for a period of one month.
In other words, they are guards and part-time thugs.
However, they only have to guard against ninjas, and ordinary people don't need them.
To be honest, this mission is really weird. The Akatsuki organization actually received such a seemingly serious mission.
Perhaps it is precisely because it looks simple that it was assigned to the two newcomers who had just joined the organization.
When they were about to arrive, they saw the person who received them standing at the gate of the manor.
The man raised his eyes and glanced at them, still standing there calmly, like a wooden stake.
When the housekeeper saw the two of them for the first time, he was stunned for a moment, mainly because such a combination was indeed a bit strange.
An obviously underage girl followed by a tall man who was nearly 1.8 meters tall and wearing a strange mask.
The contrast should not be too big.
He looked at them a few times with some suspicion.
It was not until he saw the jade ring on Haruno Sakura's hand that he was sure that they were the two people mentioned by the Akatsuki contact person.
However, he did not rush forward when he saw them.
When Haruno Sakura and A Fei came to him, he slowly said:
"You two should be the people sent by the Akatsuki organization to complete the commissioned task. Nice to meet you!"
Seeing Haruno Sakura nodded, he continued: "I'm really sorry, my lord has important matters to attend to, and I have no time to meet you today."
"I am the butler here, Cole. Next, please follow me to settle down in the guest room. I will take you to meet my lord tomorrow."
Butler Cole is an old man with half white hair. He looks kind and polite.
If it weren't for the casualness and arrogance in his eyes, he would have thought he was very approachable.
"Thank you!" Haruno Sakura didn't want to talk nonsense, and she didn't have the interest to play wit with him. She nodded indifferently and stood there quietly waiting for arrangements.
A Fei looked at the butler, then turned his head to look at Haruno Sakura, and also tactfully didn't say anything.
Seeing this, the housekeeper was a little surprised.
He looked at Haruno Sakura calmly, thinking in his heart: Is this half-grown girl in charge of these two people?
It really proves the saying that you can't judge a person by his appearance.
Crossing the courtyard, a five-story European-style castle appeared in front of everyone.
The exterior looks a bit old.
But it is precisely because of the baptism of time that it can highlight its simplicity and heaviness.
Obviously, this castle is obviously an ancient building.
Before they came here, the contact person placed in this branch by the Akatsuki organization introduced them to the identity and background of this client.
This prime minister was from the Campbell family.
It is said that the first head of the Campbell family was not from the Sea Country.
At first, it was just to avoid the war that they came to this unknown island far away from the invasion of war.
Then they took root and multiplied here.
After nearly a hundred years of operation, it became the largest force in this country.
It is no exaggeration to say that he is extremely powerful in the Sea Kingdom.
Several people entered the castle and walked up the winding stairs.
When they reached the middle of the stairs, they ran into a middle-aged man with a patch on his left eye coming down from upstairs.
The man was sturdy, with a short coat with the collar open, revealing a large piece of bulging muscles, and a long knife on his back.
When he saw the butler, he just looked at him with disdain.
Until he saw Haruno Sakura and A Fei following behind him.
He seemed to be suddenly excited, his eyes swept across the Akatsuki uniforms on the two of them, and scanned them up and down like looking at goods.
The butler seemed a little surprised by his appearance, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
He pretended to cough, as if to remind the man of something.
The man with the patch then withdrew his eye.Looking at him with displeased eyes, he snorted in disappointment and walked downstairs reluctantly.
"Sorry, that man has no ill intentions!"
The housekeeper explained insincerely and continued to take the two upstairs.
Haruno Sakura responded with a fake smile.
Ah Fei started to get serious, "Who is that man? He is too arrogant. Looking at his hateful eyes, he feels like he wants to eat people. It really scared Ah Fei to death!"
His tone was peculiar, coupled with the tone of complaint, there was always a kind of weird and alternative sense of humor.
After saying that, he patted his chest, looking scared.
The housekeeper tried hard to hold back the twitching of his eyes. He really didn't expect this person to be such a style.
He was so big and did such an eye-catching action, which really broadened his horizons.
Thinking of this, his brows were furrowed.
The reputation of the Akatsuki organization has been quite good in recent years, and the completion rate of commissioned tasks is very high.
But the two sent out now don't look very reliable.
A half-grown girl, plus a giant baby that looks big.
He glanced at Ah Fei calmly, and was silent for a long time before speaking.
"He is not an important person, please don't mind, he will leave soon!"
Haruno Sakura noticed that his pace was obviously faster, and he looked like he didn't want them to ask more questions.
Ah Fei wanted to ask more, but was stopped by her eyes. This butler had been a little strange since he saw that person just now.
The butler took the two to the door of a room on the west side of the second floor of the castle.
This floor is all separated by small suites, which seem to be a place for visitors to stay.
"I'm really sorry, because there are more guests recently, the rooms in the castle are tight, and I have to ask you two to squeeze into one room. I have asked someone to prepare two sets of blankets. Please rest first."
After a few more instructions, he left.
Although his attitude was a bit perfunctory, they were here to complete the commissioned task, and they couldn't expect these people to treat them like honored guests.
But he looked a bit anxious, as if he was eager to get rid of the two of them.
Watching the butler's hurried departure, Haruno Sakura fell into deep thought.
