Asumi Kanade is a genin from Konoha Village with a simple, down-to-earth goal in life: make money and support himself and his one and only older sister.
While his classmates are absorbed in the ninja way, Kekkei Genkai, or their dreams of becoming Hokage, Kanade is carefully calculating: For a D-rank mission to pull weeds and catch cats, how much will be left after the village and his instructor take their cuts? For a C-rank escort mission, what are the odds of running into bandits, and how much extra compensation would that bring?
Then, thanks to his ridiculous combat talent (and a touch of madness), he defeated Sasuke Uchiha, the so-called genius, twenty-six times in a row. Then Team Seven, of which he was a member, accepted a C-rank escort mission to Tanzaku Town.
Their clients were a girl who couldn’t speak and a mysterious old butler. The reward was unusually generous.
But this new Team Seven never expected that this mission would profoundly alter the course of their lives.
