Hundred Years of Hokage

Chapter 18 Dazna and Kosuke's departure
Class [-] didn’t expect that.

After they left, an old man wearing glasses entered the task center, trembling with a wine bottle in his hand, he said, "Hey, I'm here to issue a task entrustment."

"What's your name, please?"

"D...Dazuna."

The drunken old man forced himself to open his eyes, looked at Iruka in front of him and smiled: "Send me to the country of waves, protect me and build a bridge there..."

"Is this so? The Country of Waves is a country without shinobi villages, and the journey is relatively safe, so let's temporarily set it as a C-level commission!"

Umino Iruka nodded, sighed softly and said: "This kind of relatively easy task should be suitable for senior Gusuke to complete, right? When he comes again, I will assign this task to him!"

"...Oh? Your senior?"

Tatsuna glanced at Umino Iruka half awake and half drunk, grabbed Iruka's sleeve with force, nodded and said: "Okay... okay... okay... it's him!"

Iruka: "..."

There are always places in the world that are serendipitous.

When the first ray of sunlight shone in the village, the gate of Konoha opened.

This was the first time for the three genin of Team [-] to leave Konoha Village. Uzumaki Naruto looked around curiously. His eyes suddenly stopped and stared at the old man who suddenly appeared next to him: "Good morning, Kosuke-senpai, you also want to Are you leaving the village to perform a mission?"

"Yeah! Good morning!"

Genin Maruboshi Kosuke smiled and nodded. Behind him, followed another old man with a gloomy face, who seemed to be the person who was entrusted with the mission.

The atmosphere between the two old people didn't look particularly pleasant. This atmosphere has been spreading from yesterday to now.

Yesterday afternoon, Umino Iruka distributed this relatively easy C-level protection entrustment to Kosuke Maruhoshi as a benefit.

As a result, the client was dissatisfied.

However, Kosuke Shinobi's resume has countless C-level mission completion experience, so Mr. Dazner of the Land of Waves cannot refute.

Unfortunately, judging from Dazuna's expression, he was obviously not satisfied with the elderly genin beside him accepting his commission.

When Dazuna's eyes were fixed on the energetic members of Team [-] next to him, especially Uzumaki Naruto who was writing and drawing in a notebook with a serious look on his face.

Tatsuna couldn't help but muttered: "I thought you ninjas in the Leaf Village were all the same as those brats next to you!"

"Ha ha…"

Kosuke Maruhoshi said with an embarrassed look: "After all, the tasks those little guys have to do are much more difficult than my tasks!"

"is it?"

Dazna raised his head and took a sip of wine, and said in a low voice, "It's really lucky to be the person they entrust!"

Maruhoshi Kosuke touched his head in embarrassment: "I'm really sorry, but I will still send you safely to the Country of Waves and help you build the bridge."

"I hope so!"

Dazna's face twitched, and he sighed helplessly. Yesterday he originally wanted to hide his thoughts from getting drunk...

In the end, his worries were concealed, but Konoha sent him an old genin. This was really a waste of money!
After the two old men had set off for a long time, Kakashi Hatake, the leader of the seventh class, arrived late: "Oh, good morning, did you come early! I'm so sorry, I am here again today. Lost on the road of life!" "Hey, Kakashi-sensei, that's almost enough!"

Haruno Sakura tugged at his uniform and looked a little bit disgusted: "Our client is still here! He has been waiting with us for a long time!"

"it does not matter…"

The president of a certain chamber of commerce quickly waved his hand and said with a low-pitched smile: "We can invite the famous Sharingan Kakashi-sama to accept our commission. It seems that we can almost declare that the mission can be completed!"

"Ha, is that so?"

Kakashi Hatake scratched his head and said, "Do you have any detailed information about your goods that were stolen by bandits?"

The president of the Chamber of Commerce froze in astonishment: "Uh... the thing is like this, we bought a batch of precious jewelry from the Land of Water from the Cardo Chamber of Commerce in the Land of Waves some time ago, because the Land of Water was closed, those Jewelry is in high demand in the Land of Fire..."

Due to the blood mist policy of Kirigakure Village, the Kingdom of Water is regarded as a barbarian in the ninja world and is not accepted by the countries on the land, so the Kingdom of Fire rarely does business with it.

The two great powers in the ninja world can now only rely on the small island country between them, the Country of Waves, for their commodity trade turnover.

How much trade can the transportation volume of a small island country bring?
Therefore, the goods in the land of water have always been extremely expensive in the interior, and the profits are quite generous. The president of the chamber of commerce in the land of fire has met Kado, a great businessman in the land of waves. He just bought a batch of goods a few days ago. Encountered robbery by bandits.

According to the commonly known rules agreed within the Fire Country, the merchants only need to go to Konoha Village and ask their ninjas to solve the matter.

Generally, Konoha ninjas only need to show up, and those bandits will surrender to Konoha ninjas and hand over the robbed goods, and Konoha ninjas will generously spare their lives.

Occasionally, there will be ignorant bandits who resist stubbornly. Good-tempered ninjas will spare their lives, take their things and leave; if they encounter those with bad tempers, it will be hard to say...

This is like child's play...

What's even more interesting is that this situation can be traced back to the era of ninja clan wars. I heard that in that era, the two most powerful clans were Uchiha and Senju.

It's just that the two big clans have been at each other's throats for who knows how many years, and they have never subsided, and the corresponding danger is also very high.

Now that it has finally been replaced by Konoha Hidden Village, security has improved. In order to save costs, some businessmen no longer issue missions to ninjas. Later, they were robbed and went bankrupt.

The merchants of the Country of Fire knew what they were doing, and gradually they understood that this was just the ninjas trying to take advantage of the situation to make money.

Later, these Fire Country businessmen figured out a truth: ask Konoha ninjas to help transport bulk goods, and take a gamble on small goods.

If you are lucky, you will save a lot of hiring costs; if you are unlucky, you may still go to Konoha Village to ask ninjas for help. It is a C-level commission anyway.

Obviously, the president of the chamber of commerce in front of him is not very lucky, and now he can only spend money to ask ninjas to help him recover his losses. The only thing that comforts him is that he actually invited the legendary Sharingan Kakashi!

After the chairman of the chamber of commerce finished talking about how his goods were robbed, he said with emotion: "In fact, as long as I can get back those precious jewels, I will be very satisfied..."

Uzumaki Naruto didn't care, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, we will also eliminate those bandits this time, and that road will become safer in the future."

"..."

This statement was not taken seriously by the president of the Chamber of Commerce.

These ninjas couldn't think of this, but their businessman knew very well that he was a serious businessman with a very clear mind!
The bandits and road bandits in the entire Kingdom of Fire have never disappeared. The merchants more or less knew that the bandits who blocked the road and robbed all had backgrounds!
As for who the people behind them are, no one dares to investigate.

For example, people from the Kingdom of Thunder said it was Shimura Xzo, people from the Kingdom of Earth said it was Danzo Shimura, people from the Kingdom of Wind said it was Shimura Danzo, there were probably just a few guesses...

　the second
　　Danzo Shimura: I didn’t do this!
　　Sarutobi Hiruzen: Is it that important if you did it?
　　Danzo Shimura: Monkey, are you still human?
　　Sarutobi Hiruzen: In order for Konoha to continue, you sacrificed a little bit, what's wrong?
