I, who just wanted to be lazy, was forced to become the Hokage.

Chapter 215 Self-Designed Mission! New S-Rank Ninja Scroll Reward!

As the commander of the Cloud Hidden Battlefield, you can assign missions of no higher rank than S!

The task difficulty and task level must be consistent!

[Upon completion of the mission, official approval from the Third Hokage of Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi, is required; otherwise, the mission will be considered invalid!]

Inside the main tent of the camp, Nara Rinka silently shook his head as he looked at the three message notifications that popped up on the panel one after another.

A long time ago, when he had just obtained the [Lazybones System], Nara Rankei seriously considered a very serious question—could he assign himself commissioned tasks?

After some testing, Nara Rinka found that the panel ignored the "Custom Tasks" option, which effectively ended his idea of "setting his own tasks, speed-running them, and taking advantage of the lazy system".

I just got back from Shikaku in Nara.

Nara Rinko, mindful of his dual identity as "Commander of the Cloud Village Battlefield" and "New Head of the Nara Clan," once again began his experiment with self-designed missions.

This time, the panel finally displayed a response prompt.

The result was somewhat disappointing.

"Everything else is fine, it's just that after all these tasks are completed, we need Hiruzen Sarutobi's approval..."

Nara Lan Gui clicked her tongue twice.

"Should I mention to Hiruzen Sarutobi that I have the Third Raikage under my control and can end the war anytime, anywhere?"

The path of assigning S-rank missions as the commander of the Cloud Hidden Battlefield has been largely blocked.

Although Nara Rinka can still assign some S-rank missions that Konoha will know about.

However, these S-level missions have many limitations and don't quite meet his needs.

Nara Rinka then entrusted himself with a task in his capacity as "the head of the Nara clan".

The panel displayed another message.

Unlike before, the message notification for the "Nara Clan Chief" included this additional message:

Given the size and scale of the Nara clan, one S-rank ninja mission can be assigned each month!

At the same time, after completing the mission, it is also necessary to "obtain the official approval of Nara Rangsuke, the head of the Nara clan".

"One S-rank mission per month... that's not bad! The quantity is small, but the consistency is good!"

Nara Rinka closed the message notifications and turned to look at her own spell ability panel.

The difficulty and level of S-rank family missions must also be consistent.

If the task difficulty is too low, it will be impossible to trigger a high-level commission task.

Based on previous experience with S-rank family missions, Nara's idea for taking on the task was very simple:

By using the techniques they have mastered, they can deliver them to the "new clan leader" and obtain a new S-rank [Ninja Scroll]!

"Regarding the [Shadow Technique], there's nothing I can share with the family for the time being..."

Nara Rinka first looked at her core ability, [Shadow Technique], and then at her other abilities.

"But what about the others? Aren't all those diverse bloodline limit techniques the perfect opportunity to trigger a mission?"

Nara Langui has begun operations.

A moment later, the panel message popped up again.

[An S-rank ninja quest has been detected!]

[S-Rank Mission: Bloodline Limit]

[Mission Objective: Provide the Nara clan with a scroll detailing the formula for a kekkei genkai (bloodline limit) of the escape technique.]

[Mission Reward: S-Rank Ninja Scroll]

"Ha ha!"

Nara Rinka gazed at the new S-rank mission notification on the panel, her heart filled with joy.

"This is the most appropriate way to use the position of clan leader!"

Nara Rinka examined the various kekkei genkai abilities he possessed, focusing his attention on [Molten Release].

Other bloodline limits only have one form of expression.

However, the [Molten Escape] has three forms: "magma", "lime", and "rubber".

"Let's use the lava version of [Molten Exorcism] to scout ahead first..."

Nara Rinkei took out the technique scroll of the Lava Release Chakra Creation Method that he had developed from the Sealed Great Scroll, and then switched it from his left hand to his right.

"Mission accomplished?"

The message on the panel popped up again.

[You have submitted the Rank A technique scroll, "Lava Release Chakra Creation Method - Magma," to the client!]

[S-Rank Mission [Bloodline Limit] Completed!]

You have obtained an S-rank [Ninja Scroll]!

"It really works!"

The joy of admiring the osmanthus blossoms in Nara is doubled.

"That's great!"

Since it was just a free S-rank scroll, Nara Rinka had a slight thought and directly opened this freshly baked S-rank [Ninja Scroll].

[Opening...]

[This S-rank ninja scroll includes: Techniques]

[S-Rank Technique: Lava Release: Meteor Volcano]

[Technique Description: An ultimate-level Lava Release ninjutsu created based on [Lava Release Chakra Mode], [Fire Release: Dragon Flame Song Technique], and [Earth Release: Rock Fist]]

[Technique Effect: Concentrate Lava Release chakra in the fist to generate a large number of giant lava fists and launch them into the sky. Then, like a meteor shower, giant magma fists will continuously fall from the sky, turning the earth into a sea of lava and fire.]

[Spell Evaluation: This is my "justice"! "Complete justice"!]

"Oh my god, that's scary!"

Nara Rinka blinked, gazing at the S-rank technique [Lava Release: Meteor Volcano] on the panel, and couldn't help but sigh.

Compared to the previous S-rank family missions that yielded several S-rank secret techniques such as [Shadow Clone Technique], [Shadow Transformation Technique], and [Shadow Manipulation Technique], this is a significant improvement.

【Lava Release: Meteor Volcano】There's nothing fancy about it; its main feature is a massive, wide-area natural disaster attack!

The effect is simple, and the power is off the charts.

However, in contrast, the [Lava Release: Meteor Volcano] requires a massive amount of chakra.

"If we compare them like this... then the [Qilin] is definitely more appealing."

Despite saying that, Nara Rinka felt no dissatisfaction whatsoever.

He was actually considering a different problem.

"As expected, the clan's S-rank mission involves ninjutsu deduction based on the type of abilities one possesses."

Nara Rinkazu focused his mind on the contents of the scroll containing the technique [Lava Release: Meteor Volcano].

"This [Meteor Volcano] is an ultimate technique created based on [Dragon Flame Song Technique] and [Rock Fist]."

"In that case, when providing scrolls of kekkei genkai techniques such as [Scorching Release] and [Explosion Release] in the future, we must also pay attention to the preservation of our own technique abilities."

"Otherwise, if we create a useless S-rank forbidden technique, we'll be in real trouble."

"In any case, [Lava Release: Meteor Volcano] has already arrived, so how far behind can the other S-rank bloodline limits be?"

……

The next morning.

Nara Rinka's biological clock woke him up on time.

After washing up and getting ready, Nara Rinkei created a shadow clone and sent it to find Hinata Rei.

But just a few minutes later, this [shadow clone] transmitted back a memory.

"Is Hyuga about to go on a mission?"

Nara Rinka frowned slightly and quickly headed to the location where the [Shadow Clone] had just been.

Hyuga Rei, Uchiha Shisui, and another Inuzuka ninja with a large brown dog were waiting there.

Upon seeing Nara Rinka's arrival, the three quickly bowed and greeted him.

"Captain!" x2

"Nara-sama!"

Nara Rinka first nodded in response to the somewhat unfamiliar Inuzuka ninja, and then looked at Hyuga Rei and Uchiha Shisui.

"Are you going on a mission?"

"The task that Mr. Shikaku just assigned me."

Uchiha Shisui said crisply.

"He sent us to a mountain peak far from the camp to investigate the unusual thunderstorm from the previous day."

Neither Inuzuka Ninja nor Hyuga Rei reacted at all to Uchiha Shisui's complete revelation.

Nara Rinka is the highest-ranking commander of the Kumogakure defense line.

He has the right to know the mission details of every ninja in the camp.

"So that's what it was about..."

Nara Rinka never expected that this task would fall to Hinata Rei and his group.

However, considering the synergy between Byakugan and Inuzuka, it's quite suitable for this mission, especially with "Shisui's Body Flicker" protecting them from the side.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll go with you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Nara Rinka's figure vanished from the spot, using the most basic [Body Flicker Technique] to search for Nara Shikaku.

After some communication.

Nara Rinka managed to snag a mediocre B-rank mission from the chief of staff before reuniting with Hinata Rei and the others.

[Rank B Mission: Investigation]

[Mission Objective: Investigate an unnatural thunderstorm that occurred around the Konoha camp]

[Mission Reward: Rank B Ninja Scroll]

"Shisui, and Inuzuka-kun, you two stay on the ground."

Nara Rinka created a [shadow creature] and gestured for Hinata Rei to come up.

"Hyuga and I are scouting the situation in the sky."

The three of them naturally had no objections to their superior's arrangement.

Nara Rinka and Hyuga Rei piloted the [Shadow Creature] and quickly flew out of the Konoha camp.

Uchiha Shisui and Inuzuka Jaw followed the movement of the shadow creatures in the sky on the ground, heading towards the location of yesterday's thunderstorm.

"team leader."

Above the sky, Hinata Rei gazed at Nara Rinka's retreating figure and spoke calmly.

"What do you want from me?"

It's not surprising that Hyuga Rei could make this judgment by deliberately excluding Uchiha Shisui and Inuzuka Jacques and only letting her board the [Shadow Creature].

Nara Rinka does indeed have some things he wants to discuss with Hinata Rei.

It's nothing else.

It's all about her eye-rolling!

Kirigakure has its eye on the Byakugan of the Hyuga main family and intends to act in concert with Kumogakure.

Even if the Hidden Cloud Village is under the control of the "Raikage of Nara" and will not clash with the Hidden Leaf Village.

However, Nara Rinkei had little power to interfere with Kirigakure's actions.

Kirigakure will certainly not let the Byakugan, a "weapon of war," go unpunished.

Although Hinata Rei is a member of Nara Raiki.

But she was only a Chunin after all, and she needed to carry out various missions.

As the commander of the Cloud Village battlefield, Nara Rinka couldn't protect Hinata Rei for long.

As a subordinate and a friend, Nara Ranke was willing to lend a helping hand to Hinata Rei.

However, he had no way of revealing the conspiracy plans of Kumogakure and even Kirigakure to the other party...

When the words were about to come out, Nara Rinka asked a completely unrelated question.

"Hyuga, how's your training for the [Summoning Jutsu: Lightning Sword Transformation] coming along?"

"I have mastered it."

Hinata Rei said calmly.

"In addition, Shizune has also successfully mastered the [Water Slash] technique."

Hyuga Rei didn't mention Uchiha Shisui.

After all, Uchiha Shisui had already mastered the [Summoning Jutsu: Lightning Sword Transformation] and was already able to use it in battle.

"I remember your chakra nature is lightning and earth, right?"

"That's right."

"Thunder and Earth..."

Nara pondered for a moment while admiring the osmanthus tree.

Having been immersed in his research on bloodline limits lately, he suddenly remembered a special B-rank technique he had obtained from the Hidden Cloud Village.

[Rank B Bloodline Limit Technique: Magnet Release - Magnetization Technique]

"Well, we still don't know which two nature transformations are combined to form Magnet Release..."

Nara Rinka turns around and looks at Hinata Rei.

"Hyuga, have you been learning any Lightning Release or Earth Release ninjutsu lately?"

"No……"

Hinata Rei shook his head slightly and confessed.

"I have neither the means to train in ninjutsu nor enough money."

The Hyuga clan is a large and powerful family.

But in a sense, they are a pure "ninja taijutsu family"!

They have specialized in Gentle Fist for thousands of years, ignoring all fancy ninjutsu.

Even the main branch of the Hyuga clan doesn't have much in the way of collecting ninjutsu materials.

Hyuga Rei can only learn "attribute ninjutsu" through external means.

But just as she said.

They lacked both distribution channels and funding.

Even if Hyuga Rei wanted to learn ninjutsu, he couldn't find a way to do so.

To be fair...

Hyuga Rei was not interested in those unrealistic nature transformation ninjutsu anyway.

But under the influence of Nara Rinka, she had gradually accepted the idea that "the most correct path for the Hyuga clan is the ranged attack style".

Even the Gentle Fist technique of Hyuga, specifically the [Gentle Fist: Bagua Empty Palm], has a very limited effective striking range.

"Could it be... Captain..."

Hinata Rei looked at Nara Ranka, secretly anticipating what the other would say next.

"Hinata."

Nara Rinka, seeing Hinata Rei's disdainful look, slowly began to speak, just as the other had expected.

"Now that you've mastered the [Lightning Sword Transformation], I'll teach you two more Earth Release ninjutsu."

"The Earth Dragon Concealment Technique and the Earth Substitution Technique are both C-rank ninjutsu, one suitable for escaping and the other for self-defense, and are very practical."

"Captain, thank you."

Hinata Rei expressed his heartfelt gratitude.

Although it wasn't the most anticipated "ultra-long-range attack ninjutsu".

But as long as the captain is willing to teach, Hinata Rei is already very satisfied.

However, considering her two teammates, she still asked a question.

"Captain, Shizune, and what about Shisui-kun?"

"Shisui is strong enough on his own, and he also has the resources of the Uchiha clan to support him. I don't have much to teach him."

Nara Rinka shrugged and manipulated the [Shadow Creature] to hover above a desolate mountain that had collapsed.

"If it's muted... don't worry, I won't favor one over the other."

"We've arrived at the location. Let's begin your [investigation] mission!"

Sorry, it's a few hours later than I expected...

It's already afternoon.
