163 Backstage Boss

Graduation exams, survival drills, and after many tests, it is officially a ninja and begins a beautiful and enjoyable ninja career......

It's weird.

Catching cats, pulling weeds, walking dogs, taking care of babies, taking care of shops......

In less than half a month, the three children began to challenge the big problem of the century, "what is a ninja".

The training received from childhood, either under the influence of family or out of personal will, did not have any effect; And the ninja education they received at school was not used in the slightest - let alone the awareness of protecting their companions and the village, even if they did not even step out of the village gate.

Although there is indeed a corresponding reward for each task, the little girl has been living at home now, and the food, clothing, housing and transportation are usually taken care of by Zhou Jianwen and the servants of the Zhenzhou family, so there is really no need to worry about her livelihood.

So some of the honorarium earned was saved by Sakura Haruno, and the rest was used as a special fund when going out on a date with friends.

By the way, Sakura Haruno's so-called date, in addition to being a group activity of Class 7 - but basically Kakashi who pays the bill is Kakashi as a guide to Shinobi - is basically asking Ino and Hinata to go out to eat together during the break.

Konoha lacks entertainment resources, and the so-called date is basically just an afternoon of chatting in a certain dim sum shop.

This is true not only for dating between friends, but also between young couples.

"Well...... Now is a non-war time, and it is naturally impossible to let three shinobi who have just graduated from the ninja school go on a dangerous mission. ”

Hearing the complaints of Sakura Haruno, who had returned home after the end of the morning's dog walking mission, Zhou Jian Min asked the servants of the Mashu family to prepare the meal while giving spiritual counseling to the little girl.

"And even in wartime, it's impossible to let a shinobi who has just graduated from a ninja school go on a high-risk mission," but there are no D-class missions.

Just like the class where the real boat Kenwen of this world is located, they have just graduated from the ninja school, and they just happened to meet the opening of the Second Ninja World War.

Although they didn't just graduate from the ninja school at that time, they went on dangerous missions - let a group of inexperienced shinobi go on difficult tasks, unless the Hokage had his brains pumped; However, the D-class tasks in the village, that is, the trivial chores that Sakura Haruno and they are experiencing now, have been completely stopped.

In other words, at that time, their lower ninjas all started from C-level missions.

The tense atmosphere in the village started from |||Point missions are slightly higher than peacetime C-tier missions, as well as the occasional troublesome enemies during missions, and training that never relaxes at any point during non-mission periods......

These were the reasons why the shinobi at that time were able to grow rapidly.

Qualifications are important, of course, but the overall atmosphere and the problems that are rarely encountered in peacetime are also very important.

"It's also ......"

Sakura Haruno nodded obediently, agreeing with this statement of Zhou Jian Min.

Although the current situation is a little different from what she imagined when she was facing graduation, it is still within the range of what she can accept.

In fact, when they were about to graduate, Sakura Haruno did think that they would be able to go out of the village to carry out missions as soon as they graduated - of course, it was definitely not some protection of important people, or secret||Killing any character is not a task that Shinobi can do.

Even if she didn't express it as frankly as Naruto Uzumaki, who was in the same class, there was no denying that Sakura Haruno still had some expectations in her heart.

But the reality told her—or rather, that in non-war times, it was absolutely impossible for a newly graduated shinobi to come into contact with these tasks—and the possibility of improving herself and her team as soon as possible and being promoted to a middle ninja might be a little higher.

"Speaking of which, didn't Lord Jian Wen say that he was going to the Iron Country once?" Thinking of the news that her adoptive mother had told her not long after she passed the survival drill, Sakura Haruno, who had been a little exhausted from various D-class missions, finally remembered that there was such a thing.

Originally, I said that I would leave in about seven or eight days, but now that nearly two weeks have passed, and there is still no movement from my adoptive mother's side?

"Originally, I was going to go, but there was something wrong with the Iron Country, so I had to postpone the trip a bit," This matter was really unexpected by Zhou Jianwen, originally she even had her luggage ready for the trip, and even notified Bo Feng Shuimen......

But I don't want the Iron Country to have a problem first.

So the originally planned trip was put on hold, and she herself had to run to Bo Feng Shuimen to inform him.

However, Bo Feng Shuimen, who was already worried about her going far away, especially to the land of iron and snow, was quite happy, mainly because it was still spring when she originally planned to travel.

Spring is certainly better than winter, but even summer in the Iron Country is covered in snow and ice, and it's always a good thing to be able to delay it until it's warmer.

After all, Zhou Jianwen's body has not been good in the past few years.

What's more, just like many years ago, he still wants to prepare two guards for Zhou Jianwen on this trip......

It's just that at that time, the village was at its busiest time - after all, a new batch of shinobi had just graduated from the ninja school, and many of the original idle shinobi were busy bringing new people at this time, so it was impossible to spare time to protect Zhou Jian Min.

You must know that it was an A-level task to protect the Zhenzhou family and his party back then.

Although it was not a long trip like it was back then, its importance should not be underestimated.

Now that there is a problem on the side of the Iron Country, Zhou Jian Min has put her trip on hold, and Bo Feng Shuimen has also taken this opportunity to prepare escort personnel for her.

Zhou Jianwen also knew that Bo Feng Shuimen and Jiu Xinnai and his wife cared about him, so the words that were originally prevaricated were also swallowed back by her after seeing the other party's expression that could not be refused-anyway, Bo Feng Shuimen couldn't harm her, so let him go.

"That's it......" Hearing Zhou Jianwen's explanation, Haruno Sakura's mood not only did not rise, but even fell directly to the bottom.

This naturally aroused the interest of Zhou Jianwen.

She stretched out her index finger and gently tapped the little girl's nose, then quipped, "What's wrong?" Do you want me to leave early after graduation? ”

"Not really! Don't get me wrong! Hearing what Zhou Jian Wen said, the little girl hurriedly explained the reason, "Actually, because of Naruto's relationship today, Uncle Mizumon - I mean the fourth generation Hokage-sama assigned us a C-level mission. ”

Because the two families are friendly, the little girl is called uncle in private, but if she speaks as a ninja......

Then sometimes even Naruto has to honestly call his father "Shidaime".

"C-class mission?" Hearing this keyword, Zhou Jianwen suddenly felt a sense of well-being.

However, she couldn't debunk it, so she just pretended that she didn't know anything and asked the little girl, "C-class mission?" Although there is no duel between ninjas, there is still the possibility of injury. ”

Sakura Haruno nodded, as one of the top students in this class of graduates, she naturally knew the difference between the tasks of each level.

"Not long after you graduated from the ninja school, it's probably impossible for Mizumon to let you do some crusade against bandits," there is still a difference between even C-rank missions, "so it should be a mission to protect or capture beasts?" ”

"It's a guard mission, Lord Jianwen," the little girl was not at all surprised by Zhou Jianwen's analysis, "so from tomorrow we will set off for the Land of Waves." ”

A ninja's mission must not be revealed, even to loved ones—and the more important the mission, the more so.

However, because her adoptive mother is friendly with the Hokage, and she is often able to participate in some important decisions, Sakura Haruno feels that it is useless to hide it - if Mistress Ken really wants to know the direction of her mission, she can find a free time to go to the Hokage Building and know everything.

Fortunately, Zhou Jianwen didn't ask anything, just nodded and told the little girl to be careful on the road.

"No wonder you were so disappointed when you heard that I didn't have to go to the Iron Country for the time being, because we could leave the Mashu family together," although it is in two directions, one east and one west, the time of the return and forth is not as good as today.

As a ninja - and a gifted ninja - it is impossible for Sakura Haruno to carry out tasks that do not require leaving the village all the time, but it would be good for the little girl to see if she and Minu Funaya could leave Konoha at the same time.

"I'm reluctant to let Lady Jian Min," every day when I go home and see my adoptive mother there, which is also a very happy thing for Sakura Haruno.

Hearing the little girl's words, Zhou Jianwen's expression suddenly became a little soft, she reached out and rubbed the little girl's hair, and said softly, "I can't bear you either, so you must protect yourself." ”

Sakura Haruno nodded heavily, "I'll be back soon, the red bean rice cake soup is still the best at home!" ”

“…… Was it just for food? Zhou Jian Wen pretended to be sad.

Seeing this, the little girl immediately walked to Zhou Jianwen's side, and then hugged her adoptive mother with a smile, "Of course, for Lord Jianwen, red bean soup is only in second place." ”

>>>

Because of the mission, Haruno Sakura rested early that night, and the next morning, after having breakfast with Zhou Jian Min, she set off to meet the rest of the seventh class and the client at the gate of the village.

As for the empty nester Zhou Jian Min, who stayed in Zhenzhou's house...... It was to find his own secretary ship, Veneto.

"Isn't Lord Ken worried," I knew about Sakura Haruno last night...... To be precise, Veneto, who was about to leave for the country of waves, naturally knew what Zhou Jian Min had brought her in for, she looked at Zhou Jian Wen who was expressionless but could not hide her worry, and asked softly.

"Although I arranged it single-handedly, I was still a little worried when this day really came."

Originally, what would the seventh class meet in the country of waves...... It's not that Zhou Jian doesn't know.

It's just that Cardo, who was originally controlling the country of waves, was solved by Zhou Jian Min seven years ago, and although the country of waves is still not so rich, it is not so poor that even the daimyo have to look at the eyes of the rich.

"The Chamber of Commerce under the Zhenzhou family has been operating very well in the country of Wave over the years, although it is a dominant company, there is no sign of being targeted at all, on the contrary, most of the citizens of the country of Wave, including merchants and civilians, rely on the Chamber of Commerce of the country of waves."

Whether it was the real boat or the boat that came to this world, they all had their own set of codes of conduct in terms of business.

This is also the reason why the Chamber of Commerce under the Zhenzhou family has been operating better and better over the years.

"If they don't go through this catastrophe in the country of waves, although they will continue to grow, they will also lose some things, which are more important things besides actual combat experience," Zhou Jian Min said nonchalantly as he fiddled with the white roses in the vase.

The white roses had just been plucked by the servants of the Mashu family this morning and sent in a bottle, and the petals were still stained with a little dew, and the thorns on the stems had been carefully removed.

Therefore, even though Zhou Jian Wen readjusted the position of each flower, there was not the slightest trace of being pricked by the flower thorns in his hands.

"So Lord Jian Wen specially asked Mutsu to take in those two people, just for today?"

Veneto felt that it was a dangerous move for Zhou Jian to let Mutsu take in the two traitorous ninjas, although Zhou Jian Min herself did not show up from beginning to end, and she thought that this matter would not implicate her, but would the two rebel ninjas bite them back...... But it's not certain.

"Half and half, although I am indeed making arrangements for today, I also hope to protect them in my heart."

If the peach land is no longer cut and white, if it is possible, Zhou Jian Min still hopes that they can live.

"Let Mutsu pay attention to that over there, although it is a test for those three children, but I don't want them to really have an accident," With Momochi and Shui Wuyuebai as opponents, injuries are inevitable, but some lifelong trauma and death are still forgotten.

Veneto nodded, Zhou Jianwen had the intention to take in the two traitors, in the final analysis, it was to let the three children grow up.

But judging from the situation before and now, she probably didn't want the two traitors to be mere stepping stones—if she could, she would have wanted them to survive.

Provided, of course, that they did not cause irreparable harm to those three children.

"Don't you need to send some more men after them?" Veneto thought for a moment and asked with some concern, "What if those two traitors are red-eyed...... I'm afraid that Mutsu won't be able to stop it alone. ”

The power of Mutsu's artillery is truly not to be underestimated - after all, she is also a member of the Big Seven.

It's just that in the face of so many ninjas, especially Kakashi Hachiki, Veneto worries that Mutsu won't be able to use his skills to the best of his ability.

"Kakashi's strength should not be underestimated, and if you send someone to follow him, you will only be discovered by him and arouse unnecessary suspicion," Funajian thought for a moment, "As for the country of waves...... If those two traitors really killed the red-eyed and forgot to keep their hands......"

"I'm afraid you don't need Mutsu to make a move."

After adjusting the position of the roses in the vase, Zhou Jian Min gently pushed the vase towards the center of the table, "But you are also right, sometimes people are not as good as heaven, in order to prevent some unnecessary situations from happening, you let the flying dragon and the dragon go to the country of waves from other routes, it is best to arrive before the two sides meet." ”

"If anything happens, let them attack from the air."

"Yes."

Among the shipwives under her command, only five people, Veneto, Akagi and Kaga, Fuso, and Yamashiro, have appeared in front of Konoha people—or rather, they have appeared in front of Konoha people with her.

The others, including Mutsu who stayed behind in the country of waves, had never been in the sight of Konoha people.

This means that she can use some extraordinary means to achieve her goals when necessary.

It's just that the day comes...... Maybe it's a while.

>>>

Just like Zhou Jianwen's arrangement, the three children ...... Together with Kakashi, they encountered two traitorous ninjas from the Fog Hidden Village in the territory of the Land of Waves.

Commissioned by Mutsu, Momochi Zabubu and Shiro launched an attack on the group of four, while Wyvern and Soryu, who arrived in the country of waves one step earlier, remotely monitored the movement in the battlefield through reconnaissance aircraft.

But if Taodi doesn't kill the red eyes again, he forgets to show mercy to his subordinates...... Then what he will face next is a round of bombardment from the air.

It turns out that there is still a reason for Veneto and Shunaken Min's concerns, and in the face of the elite upper ninja "copy ninja" Kakashi from Konoha, as well as the three very good lower ninjas, Momochi almost forgot the original agreement because of his high emotions.

But fortunately, there is still a white presence by his side.

When both sides were about to make a big move, Bai stopped Momochi from going on a rampage in time, and then explained the reason why they would fight against Kakashi and the others when they were confused, as for this reason, it was naturally impossible for the people of the Chamber of Commerce who took them in to hire murderers......

Rather, it was very pure "mistake".

The good-looking boy explained to the four of them that they mistakenly thought that Konoha and his party were ninjas who had assisted the Land of Water in hunting them down, so they started fighting indiscriminately.

This reason sounds a bit oolong, but after seeing that Taodi no longer has a murderous aura, the seventh class, which was already on the mission and adhered to the principle of "more things are better than less", did not fight to the death with the other party.

Although Momochi and Bai were already scarred in the process of fighting them, the fate of their seventh class was not much better, and if this situation continued, it would be a matter of time before both sides were defeated.

And even if they can really kill these two people, they will not have the slightest benefit.

Not to mention whether they have the experience of taking these two people's heads to exchange for gold, Konoha and Wuyin Village are not an alliance in the first place - after killing these two rebels from Wuyin Village, the people of Wuyin Village may still think they are troublesome - the possibility of the corpse being cut off may be higher.

So when Taodi no longer lost his will to fight, and the seventh class had no intention of pursuing it, the two groups of people who were still fighting endlessly parted ways as if nothing had happened.

"Then you should be satisfied," although Class Seven undoubtedly tracked their whereabouts, but out of insurance, they deliberately took a lot of detours and erased their whereabouts, and finally returned to the Chamber of Commerce of the Zhenzhou family.

Mutsu, who was sitting on the throne, poured a cup of tea for each of them, and did not hide his true purpose, or his own commander, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"Just for the sake of the three Konoha shinobi let us act in such a play, your backstage boss is really a big deal."

Although Mutsu didn't deliberately hide it, Momochi Zabu and Shiro learned about the existence of her so-called backstage boss soon after being taken in by Mutsu - although they didn't know who the so-called backstage boss was, they also knew that the treatment that Mutsu had proposed to them and the task this time were all instructions from the so-called backstage boss.

Momochi sighed to himself again, and the so-called backstage boss didn't know whether he valued Konoha's four-person group, or had other plans, and even paid a high price to let him deal with them......

But he couldn't kill them with a ruthless hand.

You must know that this time, the commission of their "assassination mission" is calculated separately from the usual remuneration - according to the treatment of the S-class mission performed by the Shinobu of the Fog Hidden Murakami.

"Our family has always done whatever it takes to think it is necessary," after the backstage boss's affair was discovered, Mutsu has always used the word "adult" to refer to Zhou Jianwen, she has never called Zhou Jianwen by name in front of those two, and she has not even revealed whether the backstage boss is male or female.

"But this is only one such thing, and you can rest assured in the future."

Momochi raised his eyebrows again, "In the future?" Do you think the two of us will stay here in the future? ”

The confidence of the backstage boss?

"My lord said before that I won't force you to stay here, it's up to you to leave or stay, but ......" Mutsu showed a shallow smile and looked at Shiro on the side, "If you are willing to stay, we will treat everything here well." ”

"Of course, it's not just the treatment, this will always be your place until you achieve your goal."

"Actually, whether it's rebellion or forbearance, or the blood inheritance boundary, our family has never cared about this. I will take you in just because you have something in you that adults like—regardless of strength or qualifications, and adults don't want you to be displaced again. ”

Momochi was silent no longer, and after a long while, he sneered, "Then that adult of yours is really a sentimental and indiscriminate good person." ”

After today's battle—and the baptism of the pink-haired girl and the yellow-haired boy, how could he not have guessed what the backstage boss of Mutsu liked about them.

Especially the sentence of displacement, which is almost equivalent to saying the answer.

"That's because the adults of our family are undoubtedly enemies of you, in fact, the adults are even more terrible when they are angry," if Mutsu really wanted to use the two of them, Mutsu thought that Zhou Jianwen would not let her take them in at all.

With a little planning and two or three more coincidences, it was enough for these two traitors and Class 7 to pair up and become a stepping stone for those three children.

"yes, then I really want to meet the adult you said you were talking about," Momochi didn't cut and Shiro looked at each other, "If you stay here, you'll be able to meet that person one day, right?" ”

Knowing the meaning of Momochi's words, and knowing that they were willing to stay, the smile on Mutsu's face was even stronger.

She nodded, then replied.

"Yes, there will be a day."
