Naruto: Accidentally Unlocking a Fantasy Era

...

day.

Jin rolled up his sleeves and was picking rice.

Minato Namikaze and Kushina were covered in mud.

Who says ninjas don't do farming? There are still plots of land for farming, but unfortunately, it's all the work of lower-ranking ninjas.

These are all D-level missions, which are time-consuming and laborious, and the money earned is pitifully little, so naturally no one likes to take on these missions.

"Jiraiya-sensei, when can we take on some high-level missions?"

Kushina yelled at Jiraiya, who was scribbling and drawing, with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.

"A high-level mission." Jiraiya put down his pen. Their team's strength was certainly enough to qualify them for a higher-level mission.

However, a typical formal genin squad needs to do these basic tasks to develop teamwork.

Although ostensibly it's to increase proficiency in the task.

However, his three disciples... are so familiar with each other.

Looking at Kim and Minato Namikaze still working hard.

There's also Kushina, who wants to give up.

They already have a bond, so the chemistry they've developed over this period shouldn't be a problem.

"Alright, I'll take you on a high-level mission today."

Jiraiya put away his pen and paper.

"Then hurry up!!" Kushina exclaimed excitedly.

She's had enough of constantly harvesting wheat and cleaning up trash!

They also take care of the elderly, watch over children, and move goods.

They are ninjas!! Not servants!!

"You'd better change your clothes," Jiraiya said, looking at their muddy clothes with disdain.

"immediately!"

Kushina hooked her arms around the necks of Minato and Kin with one arm each, and they ran off into the distance in a flash.

"That was really fast." Jiraiya scratched his head, looking at the fairly bountiful rice paddy.

These agricultural products are intended to meet the basic needs of the entire Konoha region.

However, the ninjas' expenses all came from the daimyo's funds.

After all, ninjas are expensive creatures, and just eating and drinking aren't enough.

Kushina quickly ran back towards them, and the two people she was carrying in her arms flew up.

Jiraiya covered his forehead in exasperation, thinking, "She really is just like Tsunade."

"Jiraiya-sensei, let's go." Kushina released the two of them only after they arrived at their destination, her eyes shining.

Kim and Minato exchanged a glance.

Jin: Why don't you find another one? This woman is too fierce; she'll start hitting men in the future.

Minato Namikaze turned his head slightly.

Did this guy even understand the meaning behind his gaze?

I saw that Minato Namikaze's face had turned red.

"Forget it, let's just destroy it."

...

Konoha's Mission Hall.

Jiraiya led the three of them in.

“Jiraiya.” Hiruzen Sarutobi sat behind the long table and pulled up his straw hat.

Jiraiya stepped forward and slammed his hand on the table.

"Sarutobi-sensei, give us a B-rank mission."

"Hmm." Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at the three people behind Jiraiya.

He is familiar with everyone except Kim.

Minato Namikaze, the genius commoner who ranked first in the ninja academy, and Kushina, his jinchūriki.

One is gentle, the other is fiery.

His gaze lingered on Jin, who glared back.

Who are you talking to?

Having just dealt with the Uchiha Fire Core a while ago, taking on Hiruzen Sarutobi would be a piece of cake.

Hiruzen Sarutobi shifted his gaze to Jiraiya.

This guy is definitely not someone to be trifled with, but he probably doesn't hide his thoughts. However, he doesn't look like someone who secretly cultivates secret techniques.

The Uchiha clan, with their cautious and meticulous nature, are far too dangerous.

Everything is still up for discussion.

"Jiraiya, it seems you have a lot of confidence in them."

"This is my first time leading a team, let's go straight for a B-rank mission."

Jiraiya patted his chest proudly. Although he wanted to say something ambitious, he decided to practice with a B-rank mission first.

If it involves Chunin, his three disciples can easily handle it.

"If it's a B-level mission, there really is one here."

Hiruzen Sarutobi took out a scroll and placed it in front of him.

"A mission to investigate village spies, determine if the other party is a spy, and if so, assassinate them without alerting others."

This is not a time of peace; there are no bandits outside for them to practice against.

After all, these days, ninja wars can happen anywhere, and even bandits are afraid. They hide wherever they can, or they go to remote places.

Jiraiya's eyes narrowed as he looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"This task for the old man is not easy."

Spy missions are among the most difficult B-level missions, as they are directly assigned by the village, making them extremely challenging.

The mission consists of three steps: reconnaissance, evidence gathering, and assassination.

I won't say anything about the trouble.

The most critical issue is that it's impossible to determine the spy's strength. He's most likely a Chunin, but there's also the possibility that he's a Jonin or a Chunin.

A B-rank mission might suddenly become an A-rank mission, something even Jiraiya would have to be careful about.

but.

If Orochimaru and Tsunade had considered it carefully, they would have given up.

But Jiraiya...

"Then let me show you how powerful Jiraiya's team is. We'll take this mission."

Jiraiya picked up the scroll directly.

With Jiraiya-sama here, this kind of mission is a piece of cake.

Chapter 22 The mission is in progress

"Yamada Chuichiro, fifty years old, joined the Konoha household registration twenty years ago, has been making a living by chopping wood, has no parents or children, and lives alone."

Jiraiya unfurled the scroll and revealed the target's information.

The three men were hiding in a tree, observing the dilapidated mud house where their target lived.

The target person had not yet arrived home at this time.

Prior to this, the group had already searched the other party's house.

Unfortunately, nothing useful was found.

"Couldn't we just have someone from the Hyuga clan come and take a look to confirm who this is?" Kushina asked, looking at the target's house from a tree branch, somewhat puzzled.

The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan can see the flow of chakra within a human body.

Can't we determine if someone is a spy just by seeing their chakra?

Why is reconnaissance still necessary?

That's so troublesome.

Kushina, the woman destined to become Hokage, craves brutal, hand-to-hand combat!

"What do you do if the other person says they were a wandering ninja?"

Kim refuted Kushina's claims.

Konoha Village allows wandering ninjas to join, and they don't even keep a separate roster.

Konoha Village has its own unique spirit; when Hashirama Senju was still alive, anyone who wanted to join Konoha was welcome.

The second generation later improved the village entry plan.

First, a guarantor is required to enter Konoha. After that, a certain amount of money must be paid to Konoha every year. For the first three years, the background and origin of the person are investigated. For the next three years, they are observed cautiously. For the third year, they are left to their own devices.

It will take nine years before they can join Konoha, and during that time they cannot be shortchanged by a single penny.

This is what you call an ordinary villager; they have absolutely no contact with ninjas.

If the other party's child was born in the village, there is a chance to enter the ninja academy.

This also eliminated the possibility of most spies.
