Chapter 44: Reward

The killing of Chiyo's son and daughter-in-law, a high-level advisor to the Sunagakure, by members of the Shuo Mao team caused quite a stir among the Konoha executives.

Since Sagakure declared war on Konoha more than two years ago, this is the only major victory Konoha has achieved on the battlefield.

It can be said that this victory is no less than a victory in a war of considerable proportions.

As the son and daughter-in-law of high-level advisors, and the best masters of the Sand Hidden Puppet Army, the information and secret techniques recorded in their minds are very important and must be valued by Konoha.

So, when he got the news through the dark part of the communication, the third generation of Hokage Ape Fei Hiza immediately informed the four members of the Shuo Mao team to return to the village immediately and recuperate.

The most important thing is to get some important secret information and puppet secret techniques from the two corpses of the puppeteer, and find a way to target the puppet troops.

This is very important for Konoha now.

So, after receiving the Hokage's order letter from the Shadows, Shuo Mao took the three of Shiraishi back to Konoha Village, where they had been separated for several months.

"I'll hand in the mission, and the three of you will be free first."

"Yes."

At the gate of Konoha Village, the four of them began to go their separate ways, Shuo Shigeru was going to the Hokage Building to submit the task, and the three of Shiraishi had nothing to do, so they went to find a place to fill their stomachs first.

They had been on the road at full speed since the morning, so busy that they hadn't even eaten breakfast, and the three of them were already hungry, so of course they had to eat a feast in the village at this time.

"Hokage-sama."

Shuo Mao knocked on the door and came in, bowing slightly to the three generations of Hokage apes sitting next to his desk.

Later, he found that the two advisors, Koharu and Mito Menyan, were also here, and nodded lightly at the two of them, showing politeness.

The two advisers had gone to the Daimyo's Mansion a few days ago to collect war supplies, and had returned safely yesterday with them.

However, due to the extraordinary task accomplished by the Shuomao team, the two of them sat here as spectators to witness.

"Thank you, Shuo Mao. This time it was done well, and in this way, there should not be much of a problem with the security in the Fire Country. Just leave the rest to the shadows. ”

"Yes."

Considering the heavy losses of the Sand Hidden this time, it is really not a wise move to continue to send elite troops deep into the Fire Country to carry out secret sabotage.

Therefore, the next security work in the Fire Nation will be handed over to the Konoha ninjas in the dark department and the rest of the outposts.

This is the end of Captain Shuomao's months-long mission.

"Has the body been handed over to the torture department?"

"It has been handed over, and not a single enemy has survived."

Although Shiraishi and Ruri made the first contribution that day, the rest of the Sand Hidden Ninjas who fled in all directions, as well as the suspected Earth Escape Ninja of Iwakuin Village, were all pursued and eliminated by Shuo Mao and Ayane, of which Tentake Shinobu also contributed part of their strength.

At this point, the Sand Hidden Squad that gave Konoha a great headache has been wiped out.

The difficulty and importance of this quest can be set to S-level.

Hizai nodded, looked at the advisors Koharu and Menyan, and said, "Next, let the ninjas of the Yamanaka clan investigate carefully, and you can obtain the enemy's secrets." ”

"Let's do this, the weaknesses of the puppet forces must be found out as soon as possible, so that Sha Yin can also know how powerful we are."

Koharu and Menyan are also very satisfied with the performance of the Shuo Mao team, and they are worthy of being the best shinobi in Konoha in their Konoha team, even better than the three shinobi.

"Your Shuomao team has done a very good job this time, and the rewards for the missions in the past few months will be counted as one S-level and five A-level tasks."

Hizai smiled with relief.

Shuo Mao has no opinion.

One S-level task, five A-level, spread out, even if it is the three of them, each of them can get at least one million taels of remuneration.

Of course, financial remuneration is only secondary.

This time, the Shuomao team has made such a great contribution, and the funds are only the most basic reward, and there will definitely be more generous rewards in the future.

It's just that for a while, the Hokage himself didn't figure out what to reward, so this matter may be delayed for two or three days before the reward will be implemented on everyone in the Shuomao team.

"Hokage-sama, as for my share, let's go directly to the other three, they need these things more than I do."

Shuo Mao said.

"You're still the same, Shuo Mao."

When Hizai heard Shuo Mao's request, he looked at him helplessly.

"After all, I didn't solve those two puppeteers, did I?"

Shuo Mao laughed.

The task has already been understood after the day of slashing, although the person who solved the two puppet masters is not Shuo Mao, but if he hadn't taken the lead in severely injuring those two, others would not have been able to get this credit.

But since Shuo Mao said so, Ri Slash can only let it go.

For he really has nothing left to reward him.

Even if he asked Shuo Mao to watch the Book of Seals before, he was rejected by the other party with a smile.

He is Konoha White Fang, and knife skills are all he has.

The likes of ninjutsu and illusion will only affect the speed and power of his sword.

But this does not mean that Shuo Mao does not know ninjutsu, on the contrary, his talent in ninjutsu is also outstanding, but he is a pragmatist.

For him, as long as he can use the White Fang Knife Technique to kill the enemy before he can perform his ninjutsu.

The white tooth short knife in his hand is his strongest 'ninjutsu'!

After reporting the mission, Shuo Mao left here.

"Seeing the excellent juniors emerging in the village, I really feel that I am much older."

Koharu suddenly sighed.

"We're only in our forties, and we're not yet in the middle of the day." Menyan said unconvincedly.

"That said, I can still be in this position for about ten years."

Hizashi also inserted a topic between the two.

"Hitosa, have you decided who you want to be the next Hokage?"

Koharu asked, intentionally or unintentionally.

Hizai was silent for a moment, he really hadn't decided on this matter yet.

The so-called Hokage is to select the most famous, the most powerful, and the most virtuous ninja from among the many upper ninjas.

At present, Shuo Mao is the closest Shinobi to the position of the Hokage, his reputation is higher than that of the Three Shinobi, his strength is also stronger than the Three Shinobi, and his character is even less questionable.

He is cold-blooded and ruthless to his enemies, and he cares for his colleagues, but he is not very good at expressing himself, and can treat anyone as an equal.

It can be said that he is a qualified candidate for the Hokage.

On top of that, Shuo Mao's strength is still growing by leaps and bounds, and he is far from reaching the peak age of a ninja.

Even so, he is now the great shinobi in the village.

Ten years later, he will be even more terrifying, and it will be a never-ending nightmare for the enemy.

"He's not fit to be a Hokage."

Hizai said.

Koharu and Menyan glanced at Hizai in surprise.

"It's good that you know what to do. After all, he now has Uchiha ninjas in his team, and he has not only reached the level of the upper ninja at a young age, but he is also a member of the Uchiha radical faction, so he must be careful at all times. ”

Hearing that Menyan and Koharu were talking to the Uchiha clan again, Hichicho took another puff of his cigarette and spit it out.

"Okay, I'm prepared for this, you guys go back first."

I don't want to fight with the two of them in this kind of thing, and he has to complete today's work compared to this.

And how to further reward the Shuomao team is also a more important issue.

The annihilation of the Sand Hidden Force this time is of great significance, as long as you use the secret techniques of the Yamanaka Clan, you can not only obtain all kinds of confidential information in the enemy's mind, but also many of the secret techniques of the Sand Hide, including the information of the puppet troops, can be obtained.

Even without that, just stabilizing the situation within the Fire Nation would be worthy of a great deal of praise for the Shuomao team.

But I think of the two girls in the Shuo Mao team, one is from Uchiha and the other is from Hinata...... It's a bit difficult to make the day chop.

The girl of the Hyuga family was born in a separate family, and he had some ambiguous ideas, the key is that Ruri, who is valued by most of the elders of the Uchiha clan, must not lack all kinds of resources in his hands.

If she really wants to reward it, she can only open the Book of Seals once and let her choose a ninjutsu to learn on it.

But opening the Book of Seals to the ninjas of the Uchiha clan, Hichisha can imagine that Menyan and Koharu will definitely come over to teach him with two long faces.

Subsequently, Hizai picked up Shiraishi's profile book again, well, this is easy to dismiss, high-level ninjutsu, more advanced medical-related books, etc., can be used as a reward this time.
