Chapter 23 Late but arrived A-level mission to leave the village! (Please read it, please vote for me)
"We will first go to the Hokage Building to announce and receive an A-level mission to Kyoto."
Nara Shikano put his hands behind his back and ran quickly towards the Konoha Village in a peculiar "ninja running" posture.
"The war is coming. We need to inform Daming Prefecture of the situation and strive to get material support from Daming Prefecture."
In order to keep up with the speed of the clan leader, Nara Langui was not allowed to use some chakra to enhance his motor functions.
"Publish and receive?"
Because he was running fast, Nara Langui spoke intermittently, and physical fitness was not his specialty.
"Lan Gui, as a researcher, you must not neglect physical exercise."
Nara Kano, who was over fifty years old, turned his head and spoke in a very relaxed tone.
"We are always ninjas.
"As for the question you just asked...special times, special measures.
"You'll understand what's going on in a moment."
While talking, the two quickly left Platycodon City and arrived at Konoha Village.
Just when Nara Langui and Nara Kano came to the central area of the village.
There were already two figures, one fat and one thin, waiting under the Hokage Building for a long time.
"Hai Yi, Ding Zuo."
Nara Shikano nodded towards the two of them, and Nara Langui also saluted and greeted them.
Haiyi in the mountains.
Autumn Road Dingzuo.
The heir to the clan head of the Yamanaka clan and the Akimichi clan, Nehong Miaomasa.
The two of them, together with Nara Shikaku's son, Nara Shikaku, are known as the "Ino Shikacho" of Konoha's generation.
"Uncle Luye, thank you for your hard work."
Yamanaka Kaiichi and Akimichi Choza bowed to Nara Kano.
The two of them glanced at Nara Langui next to them at the same time, but neither of them rashly asked about the situation.
"When I saw you two, I realized that this task should have been handed over to Shikaku."
Nara Kano's attitude towards these two people is very friendly and casual.
"After completing this mission, I will retire from the ninja profession!"
After hearing this, Yamanaka Haiichi and Akimichi Choza needed no words to express their polite flattery.
On the side, Nara Langui's eyelids twitched slightly.
These are not nice words, old patriarch...
The four-person group headed by Nara Kano entered the Hokage building together and came to the Hokage's office on the top floor.
When he came to the Hokage's office for the second time, Nara Langui was no longer as curious as before. He looked at his nose and mouth, thinking that he was a transparent person.
Nara Shikano stepped forward and handed a mission scroll to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Lord Hokage, this is the mission of our Nara clan."
Sarutobi Hiruzen took the mission scroll without any surprise, stamped the Hokage's seal on it, and then handed it back to Nara Kano.
Regarding the content of the mission, he had already completed negotiations with Nara Kano yesterday.
At the same time, a task prompt also popped up on Nara Langui's virtual panel.
[It has been detected that the A-level ninja mission has been triggered!]
[A-level mission: "Tribute"]
[Task content: 1. Transport antler and other precious medicinal materials to the capital of the Land of Fire;
2. Obtain war support from the Daimyos of the Land of Fire]
[Task Reward: An A-level Ninja Secret Scroll]
What kind of weird A-level mission is this...
Nara Langui was very confused.
The first half of the mission is "delivering medicinal materials", and the second half of the mission is "obtaining support".
If you want to pay tribute to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, the two parts should be connected to each other.
But overall, these two are clearly independent tasks.
'A-level mission tribute, or tribute specifically in quotation marks...'
'I'm afraid this is not about Konoha paying tribute to the Daming Palace, but rather the Daming Palace paying tribute to Konoha!'
Just when Nara Langui was pondering the profound question of who is superior and who is inferior between the "Hokage" and the "Daimyo".
The patriarch's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Lan Gui, let's go and entrust the task."
Nara Langui, who had been prepared for a long time, took a few steps forward and handed the mission scroll given by the clan leader to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"This is?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi opened the scroll in his hand with some confusion, and saw a ten thousand ryo note falling from it.
“C-level mission ‘Guard’.
"The mission content is 'Protect Nara Langui to go to the Temple of Fire'.
"The task amount is ten thousand taels."
Just by glancing at the mission scroll, Sarutobi Hiruzen realized what was going on.
Simply put.
Nara Kano made another small side kick within the scope allowed by the rules.
Originally, the actual mission of the three "Ino Shikacho", Nara Kano, Yamanaka Kaiichi and Akimichi Choza, was to go to Kyoto and obtain war support from the Daming Prefecture.
However, it is inevitably inappropriate to go directly to your door and ask for money.
That's why there is this layer of skin that "escorts the medicinal materials".
The Nara clan sells medicinal materials to the dignitaries of the Land of Fire almost every year, on the one hand to make money, and on the other hand to build hidden political partnerships.
For ordinary ninjas, this kind of thing is too far away for them.
But for the "medical ninja clan" like the Nara clan, this is really a normal thing.
Using the name of "asking for war support" and selling medicinal materials to Kyoto at the same time, this was Nara Kano's first marginal move.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was not unhappy about this, but actually welcomed it.
The Nara clan is on good terms with officials from the Fire Country. Rounding things off, wouldn’t it mean that the Leaf Village is on good terms with the Fire Country officials?
but……
Why did Kano Nara want to go to the Fire Temple? And he also brought the child Nara Langui with him?
These questions flashed through Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind without leaving many traces.
He took out the 10,000 taels of banknotes, slapped the Hokage's seal on it, and handed the mission scroll to Kano Nara who was standing aside.
The person responsible for taking on this C-level mission is none other than the patriarch of the Nara clan!
"Act quickly, Luye."
Sarutobi Hiruzen waved to the four of them.
"There are still people waiting for you!"
The Nara clan is very thoughtful.
But who said that the Nara clan was the only one who was sidelined in the mission this time?
As Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi also mixed two additional B-level tasks into this A-level mission.
The mismatched combination of Ino, Deer and Butterfly is here. Such a powerful ninja team cannot be used in vain!
After the four of Nara Shikano said goodbye to the Third Generation, they left the Hokage Building resolutely and headed for the gate of Konoha.
In front of the main gate of Konoha, there was a bustling crowd.
Three or two small caravans gathered together, and the sound of horses whinnying could be heard endlessly.
Among a group of ordinary people, there were six ninjas wearing forehead protectors.
