Chapter Eighty-Four: A Sudden Support Mission
The third generation Hokage is working on documents in the office, he has to manage the work and life of more than 100,000 people in the entire Konoha Village, although there are other ninjas in various positions, but as the Hokage, his responsibility is always the greatest.
Therefore, his workload is also the largest, even if most of the work has been shared by the people below, there are still a lot of decisions that he needs to decide, and often this kind of decision-making work is the most difficult. Because every decision he makes, there are many aspects to consider. Fire Country, Konoha Village, Daimyo, Officials, Ninjas, Samurai, Civilians...... As well as the attitude of neighboring countries, there are too many things to consider, so the Hokage is definitely not an easy job, on the contrary, this position is probably the most responsible and draining job in this country.
I had just finished reading a document about increasing the number of ninja schools enrolled, and after half an hour of thinking, the three generations finally signed and approved it. After signing, he relaxed, leaned back in his chair, and lit his pipe.
He needed to relax, and it was quite exhausting to keep it so tight. And his age is no longer young, and such a consumption has obviously made him a little overwhelmed.
Just as the three generations were smoking and resting, a figure appeared in the room very suddenly.
It's a ninja of the shadows.
"Three generations of adults, something happened."
……
Chiba is on their way back to Konoha Village with Ebisu and Red, and this time they are still on an A-class mission. In fact, A-class missions are already commonplace for the Thousand Feathers team.
Hunt down the rebels, protect the dignitaries, and seize the documents...... Basically, they have done any kind of mission, so the three of them have accumulated a lot of experience, and now ordinary A-class missions can no longer cause them much trouble, basically as long as they don't encounter particularly strong enemies, they can easily defeat each other.
Captain Qianyu, his magnetic escape is now getting stronger and stronger, and ordinary Shangnin is not too threatening in front of him.
And the strength of Ebisu and Red has also been greatly improved, especially Red, the illusion has become stronger, and many times, even the upper ninja may not be able to crack it easily. Ebisu is a little worse, but it's a big improvement from the past.
In terms of strength, Qian Yu has completely reached the level of upper ninja. And Red and Ebisu, Nakashinobi has no problem, and Red can even consider sprinting to a particularly hurtful position.
The mission that the three of them just performed was a mission to steal information, guarding one side with a strong person at the upper ninja level, as well as a few middle ninjas, and more than a dozen lower ninjas. The lower ninja was all handed over to Red and Ebisu, and after the middle ninja was solved by Chiba as quickly as possible, there was only one upper ninja left, and it was no longer a problem.
It was obviously stealing information, but in the end, it turned into a forcible robbery of information, anyway, no matter what the specific implementation process of the mission was, as long as the information was in hand, everything was OK.
After the mission, the three of them were already a little tired, and they only wanted to return to Konoha and rest for a few days.
"By the way, captain, after returning to Konoha, let's play a game, I haven't played with you for a long time. Recently, I have developed a new routine that you must not be able to prevent. ”
Ebisu pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose and said with a "hideous" smile.
"Giggles-Ebisu, you really don't have a long memory, wasn't it enough to be beaten 12-0 by the captain last time? You're the first person I've ever met who has nothing to do with abuse. ”
Red said with a smile on the side, and directly exposed the scandal of Ebisu without any scruples.
"Humph! That's in the past. Sunset Red, as a woman, it is impossible for you to understand a man's persistence. And I, a man who persists, even if I am defeated once, I will not admit defeat. Even if I am defeated by a big score of 12-0, I will find a way to make the score 11-1! ”
Ebisu's expression was extremely serious, and he said things that made people want to complain unconsciously.
"Haha, okay, I'll have a good game with you when I go back, but let's talk about it first, and those who lose will have dinner. Roast, is there a problem? ”
Qian Yu turned his head slightly and said with a smile.
Sure enough, Ebisu's face in the back became extremely stiff.
Please eat?
Or a barbecue?
Silently his wallet, Ebisu could only lament in his heart.
How many times has it been since the first challenge? 22 times? Or 23 times?
As a ninja who is not even a middle ninja, although the level of the tasks he performs is relatively high, the reward he can get is relatively limited after all, so it is really difficult for him to invite everyone to eat or something.
But what's the solution? Ever since he failed in his first game, he has started to challenge, and in the first challenge he said that if he loses, he will invite everyone to dinner.
As a result, it has become a tradition of the Thousand Feathers Squad to invite them to dinner, basically once every half a month, so that Ebisu's wallet is always deflated, and it is always given to the owner of the barbecue restaurant as soon as the task reward is in hand.
However, even so, Ebisu nodded vigorously.
"No problem, I won't fail this time."
It's good to have courage, but too much courage becomes recklessness.
Qianyu looked at Ebisu with a smile and nodded slightly, "Okay, then it's decided, after handing in the task and resting for half a day, then we'll ......"
As he spoke, Qianyu's face suddenly changed, and his rapidly advancing figure suddenly stopped.
Ebisu and Red, who were following him, stopped at the same time and looked at Chiba quietly.
Qian Yu frowned and tilted her head, as if listening to something, while nodding her head from time to time.
"Uh-huh, uh-huh, um, okay, I see."
Chiba said something inexplicable, and then he lowered his right hand that was pressing his temple.
"Let's go, I can't go back to the village for the time being, there are three ninja squads that were attacked while on a mission in the Land of Wind, and their lives are unknown at the moment, including us, there will be six squads to the rescue. How about the two of you, do you need to rest? ”
Qian Yu turned his head to look at his two team members.
"We can rest on the road for a day if we need to, but only one day, three days have passed since they disappeared, and we have to rush to the Land of the Winds in three days, so to be precise, we only have one night to rest."
"This ......"
Ebisu and Red glanced at each other, none of them expected that there would be such an unexpected situation.
"Let's rest for the night, my body is a little tired, and if I go straight over, the decline in state will be very serious."
Red said.
Ninjas need to be sane when carrying out their missions, and in their current state, even if they go to the Land of Wind, they may not be able to rescue their companions, so they must rest.
"That's right, Captain, the chakra consumption was not small when we were on the mission just now, if we don't rest, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no sudden situation, and it is the Land of Wind, we can't rule out that this mission is not a trap specifically for you."
Ebisu also said in a deep voice.
"Well, your analysis is very reasonable, then let's rest for the night first, and the other teams will go to step on the spot first, and we will do it when necessary. Then turn southwest, and if I'm not mistaken, there's a small town fifty miles away, and we'll go there for a night's rest. ”
With a wave of his hand, Qianyu issued an order.
"Yes!"
Ebisu and Red echo at the same time.
In the next second, the three of them jumped out at the same time, stepped on the branches of the tree with their feet, and quickly rushed towards the direction of the town.
