- Mission Description:
- Travel to near the border and burn down one of the several bridges which connect us to the mainland nearing the land of blood. By any means necessary. There may be opposition.
Issei was dressed in shameless and beneficially lightweight clothing as he pushed through the crowded city streets. He had his first B-Rank mission that uncharacteristically sunny day in Mizu no Kuni. The objective was to destroy one of the bridges recently built by a smaller country connecting it to Kiri. The reason behind this mission wasn't exactly explicit, but Issei assumed that the bridge was providing a way for criminals (like smugglers, pirates, and maybe even assassins, if it was as urgent as it seemed) into the country. He was armed with his usual, standard ninja tools as well as his brand new handwraps. The left one had a simple Fuuinjutsu seal on the inside of the palm containing the giant shuriken he'd also purchased the previous week, and he couldn't help but feel excited to use it. Matching his clean, white handwraps was the wife beater he wore that showed off his broad chest and muscle definition. His right bicep strained against his Kirigakure headband, which he had tightly tied around it as an emblem of where his loyalty lied. On his lower body, wore breathable, black stitched jogger shorts and tabi. The shorts hung just below his waistline, revealing a small portion of his tailbone so that he could freely use his newest kekkei genkai technique without fear of ruining his clothing. His expression was grim as it always was; he stared straight ahead at all times, and even when there was something in front of him, his eyes seemed to bore through whatever it was as if it weren't there. It was a look of determination, in his opinion, but anyone else would've thought he was on a mission to kill someone. Whether or not he would end up killing anyone was yet to be determined.
Beyond the village gate and into the wilderness, the border of the island was fast approaching once Issei made it past the dense forests and obscuring mists. The bridge stood there, still new and robust over the raging waves of the Land of Water. Unfortunately, Issei noticed that he would be facing some opposition before he could complete his task. A number of people, likely mercenaries, stood guard at the bridge. Whatever small village they were associated with, it was definitely not any ally of Kirigakure's. Issei stopped for a moment, still out of their line of sight, and formulated a quick plan. His eyes darted between his targets; there were two at the far end of the bridge carrying swords, another four further back in a cluster talking, and behind them another pair sitting on the edge of the bridge looking at the waves. Since the two at the far end were attentive, there was likely no way to catch them by surprise. Issei elected to dash in as fast as possible and dispatch those two before the rest of them could react and overwhelm him. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly.
Then, his legs tensed and he burst into action, entering a full sprint towards his first two targets. His eyes darkened and his irises glowed crimson-red as his kekkei genkai activated.
I'll get this over with fast.
