Couldn't they just carry machine guns with them on their missions?
Guns don’t exist in Naruto.
So it's the same plot convenience as in Harry Potter ...
"Harry donned his invisibility cloak, teleported to a nearby gun store, enchanted the clerk so that he would hand him an AK, returned back to Hogwarts and heroically offed every Death Eater he could spot."
It doesn't make for good storytelling, but the lack of real-world weapons is the main reason I can't take many shounen manga seriously.
Ah. In the Boruto manga, there are guns, but very rarely do they appear. One appearance was a minigun that shot “chakra”.
