Konoha: You're letting me build up my bonds, but you're offending the entire ninja world.

Another type is the tasks issued by the village itself.

The reward for this kind of task is much lower, usually only one-third or even one-fifth of the reward for a similar level of external task.

However, this kind of task also has its advantages, namely, it rewards contribution points.

In previous Shinobi World Wars, it wasn't an obligation for ninjas to go to the front lines. Each operation was assigned a mission based on its difficulty; otherwise, who would risk their lives for you?

Contribution points can be used to exchange for various ninjutsu, ninja tools, and even guidance from high-level ninjas.

Thanks to this system invented by Tobirama Senju, the village's operational efficiency was greatly improved, and ordinary ninjas also had the hope of becoming stronger.

Therefore, over the years, the quality of Konoha ninjas has been relatively high among the five great nations, with a constant influx of new blood, and its financial situation is the best among the five great nations.

"Hello, we need to accept a mission." The clerk said politely as he approached one of the staff members.

The busy clerk didn't even look up, simply pulling out a piece of paper from the side of her and handing it over.

"Choose for yourself, then register."

Hyuga Hizashi took it, glanced at it a few times, and then frowned.

The tasks listed above are either helping farmers plant rice seedlings, tedious tasks like finding cats and dogs, or tasks that are far away and time-consuming.

Although the pay is not low, it does not actually serve to hone one's skills.

"Hizashi-sensei, please take a look at me." Shimura Genzuki ran up from behind Kurenai.

Hyuga Hizashi handed it over, and Shimura Gengetsu took it, glanced at it, and then slammed it on the clerk's desk with such force that it almost broke the desk.

The loud noise drew the attention of the surrounding ninjas and those who had issued the mission.

"What are you doing!" The clerk, who was busy with his head down, was startled and glared angrily at Shimura Gengetsu.

Gengetsu Shimura pointed to the clan crest on his clothes. "I am Gengetsu Shimura, the grandson of Danzo Shimura, who served as Hokage's advisor. Think carefully before you decide what to say."

Upon hearing this, the clerk's expression changed drastically, and he quickly put on a fawning smile.

"So you're the young master of the Shimura family. Look how busy I am! What kind of task would you like?"

Shimura Gengetsu ignored him and simply pulled out the entire stack of mission documents.

"You don't need to worry about it, I can choose for myself."

"No problem, you can choose whatever you like, but something too dangerous..."

"I understand, I'm not going to my death."

Shimura Gengetsu waved his hand impatiently, carrying a large stack of papers, and came to the three people who were already dumbfounded, revealing an innocent smile.

"Ms. Hiashi, let's take our time and find the right one."

The same thought popped into the minds of all three of them at the same time.

Being a spoiled rich kid is so damn awesome.

........

Please give me flowers and monthly tickets, thank you everyone!

Chapter Thirty-One: Old Deng of the Third Generation, You Old Rascal, You're Very Bad

When you're out and about, you give yourself your own identity, but you also need to tell others about it.

Gengetsu Shimura didn't want to end up like Asuma, who, despite being the biggest spoiled rich kid in the village, lived like a loser.

In a corner of the mission hall, Shimura Gengetsu unfolded a stack of mission lists and placed them on the ground.

Then he told a few people to squat down.

"Come and choose one, see which task is better."

Hyuga Hizashi's feelings were quite complicated.

This was the first time he had ever selected a task in this way, and it was quite novel.

Although he was a member of the Hyuga clan and the younger brother of the clan leader, a branch family is a branch family, and no one ever tried to curry favor with him. Besides, most people don't have the right to be picky when they are weak, and when they become strong and become Jonin, they are self-respecting and won't bother with these office workers. How could there be someone as unscrupulous as Shimura Gengetsu?

Even the Hokage's son isn't as arrogant as him.

But the thought that he was Danzo's grandson...

That's fine.

Everything then became perfectly natural.

Kurenai Yuhi and Yugao Uzuki were even more speechless.

In the past, they followed the Jonin who led the team, and they did all kinds of missions without any room for objection.

"How about this one?" Shimura Gengetsu's eyes lit up as he pointed to one of the missions. Hyuga Hizashi's eyelids twitched as he saw it, and he immediately rejected it, saying, "No, the situation isn't urgent enough yet. Sending a child to the battlefield is too much."

Konoha has now signed a ceasefire treaty with Sunagakure, but it hasn't done so with the other three countries.

There are still many ninjas in a standoff on the border, engaging in low-intensity competition and fighting, with one stealing another's missions and the other intercepting the other's supplies.

Just now, Shimura Gengetsu was looking at a mission to ambush the Iwagakure squad.

Hizashi Hyuga would be crazy to take him to the battlefield; he'd probably be thrown into Root's prison before they even reached the border.

Instead, a glint of hatred flashed in Uzuki Yugao's eyes.

"That's it."

Hyuga Hizashi quickly selected a mission, and the three of them huddled together to look at it, discovering it was a B-rank assassination mission.

Merchants from the Land of Fire are secretly smuggling grain into Iwagakure. Smuggling is not a big deal, but not paying taxes is your problem. Therefore, this commission was issued by the Daimyo's government.

In assassination missions, those that target ordinary people, especially wealthy individuals, are the easiest and offer additional income.

Hyuga Hizashi didn't ask for much; he just wanted to fill his own coffers so that Neji wouldn't end up starving if he were really eaten out of house and home.

"Alright then." Shimura Gengetsu said with some regret; he still wanted to go to the battlefield and become sworn brothers with more ninjas.

Kurenai Yuhi and Yugao Uzuki had no objections, and the four of them were about to return the mission manual when a masked ANBU suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Hyuga Hizashi, the Hokage wants to see you. Please take your team members to the Hokage's office immediately."

Hyuga Hizashi was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized what was happening.

"Yes, we'll go there now."

Shimura Gengetsu was also curious about what Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted with them, so he placed the stack of mission manuals in the hands of the Anbu members and went upstairs first.

The group arrived at the door, and Hyuga Hizashi gently knocked. After receiving an affirmative reply, he led the group into the office.

The room was filled with smoke. Hiruzen Sarutobi was puffing on his pipe, while elders Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane were also there, sitting at the desk on the side.

"Lord Hokage, Elder," Hyuga Hizashi greeted respectfully, and the two women bowed slightly in return.

Having ruled Konoha for over thirty years, these old guys still hold considerable prestige.

Only Shimura Gengetsu frowned.

Damn it, the room is completely closed, and the windows aren't even open, yet they're smoking here. Aren't they afraid of inhaling secondhand smoke and dying?

"Hiashi's here." Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded with a smile, and when he saw Gengetsu Shimura frowning and blowing his nose, he immediately understood what was going on.

I got up and pushed open the window behind me. A breeze swept through, and the visibility inside improved a bit.

"We old folks are so used to the smell of smoke that we've forgotten about you, little guy."

[The host has established a junior bond with Koharu Utatane, and is rewarded with 0.5 standard units of Jonin chakra.]

[The host establishes a junior-student bond with Mitokado Homura, rewarding the user with Fire Attribute Nature Change (Proficient)]

Two notification sounds came from the system. Shimura Gengetsu was not surprised. Danzo and these two elders were so close that they were practically inseparable. It was normal for them to have goodwill towards him.

After greeting the two, Xuan Yue looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Old Deng, what do you want with us?"

Although the teacher leading the team is Hyuga Hizashi, it is actually the most appropriate time for him to speak.

Hiruzen Sarutobi automatically ignored Shimura Gengetsu's way of addressing him and shifted the blame to Danzo, his smile still on his face: "You took so long to successfully form a team, can't I at least see how you and your teammates are getting along?"

"Given my relationship with your grandfather, it wouldn't be a problem if you called me grandfather directly. I'm just checking in on what issues the younger generation might have."

Gengetsu Shimura shook his little head like a rattle drum. "My old man said you're a really bad old man. The more you want to scheme against someone, the happier you are, just like now."

"Who knows if you're trying to use me against my old man?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's smile froze, and Hizashi and the others were completely dumbfounded.

For so many years, they had never seen anyone dare to speak to the Hokage like that, and Konoha would not allow such a powerful figure to exist.

"puff!"

Koharu Utatane couldn't help but burst out laughing, and quickly tried to cover it up when she saw the death stare from Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Danzo is really something, teaching Gengetsu all sorts of truths, isn't he afraid of corrupting the child?"

You fucking thing.

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi really had the idea of ​​throwing Koharu Utatane out the window.

What do you mean by telling the truth? That was my kind and friendly smile, okay?
