There were two new AiT who he had decided to send on the recovery mission. There were better trained trainee's available, but he wanted these two blooded into the way of the ANBU quickly. Shashu wouldn't be impressed, he knew that already from the small amount of time they had spent together, but it wasn't her decision to make, it was his, and at least for now she was an ANBU and would do as she was told.
He wore battle gear. It felt on, he'd not worn this gear for years. The sword felt heavy on his back as if pulling against his standing up straight and there was something missing from his shoulder... Mojo would never be replaced, but he would be forever missed.
The class would be a mission, C-Rank, a rank he'd be embarrassed to fail, but it'd give the kids the experience they needed. They would travel out to the north where one of the Daimyo of Cloud needed to have his taxes carried to the capital. The reason it was to be guarded by shinobi was due to the number of robberies that had occurred recently with survivors citing shinobiesk techniques. Whatever the case it didn't sound like the individuals were overly skilled, and Akira would be able to handle them himself, indeed the trainee's might have been able to do so.
Still it was training, and they would learn.
