Konoha: I was living a peaceful life, but was backstabbed by the system

Qu Feng smiled and said, "How about I invest in you?"

Shouteng was still a little confused, he had never heard of the word investment: "What is investment?"

Qu Feng was too lazy to explain to him and went straight to the point: "I will give you some money as your start-up capital. You can buy a store or something. You can use the money as you like, but you need to pay me 30% of your income every month."

Hearing this, Shouda felt a little excited. He was full of enthusiasm when he came to Konoha Village, but to be honest, he felt a little cold after seeing the housing prices here.

There is no other reason, the housing prices are really high, so I can only set up a stall at the morning market, hoping to save enough money soon to buy a shop of my own.

But now the Hokage gave him another choice.

Chapter 353 Panic Jiraiya

There is no other reason, the housing prices are really high, so I can only set up a stall at the morning market, hoping to save enough money soon to buy a shop of my own.

But now the Hokage gave him another choice.

"It is difficult for me to refuse this offer, Hokage-sama, but I want to know why you would make this so-called 'investment' in me? There are so many small vendors at the morning market."

Qufeng smiled slightly, and looked at Shouda with a little more approval in his eyes: "Your noodles taste very good, the rest is all based on intuition, maybe I admire you as a person."

After asking around, he scratched his head: "Is this the reason? Lord Hokage is really special."

"Then you agreed?"

Shouda nodded: "I don't think I have any reason to refuse."

Qu Feng held out his hand after hearing this: "It's a pleasure to work with you. I believe in my intuition. You will create a great world in Konoha."

Shouda thanked Qufeng again and again, but since there were already guests coming up, he could only go and entertain them first. Seeing this, Qufeng took Minato and left.

"If Big Brother invests in Handmade, can I eat at his restaurant in the future?"

Qu Feng rubbed his full stomach and said, "Of course, I'm just worried that business will be too prosperous and you might not be able to get a seat."

The hand-made stall is now showing signs of being very popular. If Qufeng and Shuimen hadn't arrived early, there would have been no seats left.

Minato chuckled when he heard that: "It's okay, I have the phone number for takeout. When the time comes, just tell them that it's what you wanted, and they will definitely deliver it."

Qufeng turned around and looked at Minato. When did this kid become so mischievous?

Or did I teach him bad things?

But it's better to be a little careful so as not to be cheated.

"What do you mean, do you want to go straight to school? Or do you want to go home and rest for a while?"

Minato thought for a moment and said, "I better go home first. Sakumo-sensei said we don't need to go so early."

Due to the ban these days, the ninjas are unable to accept missions, so Sakumo took Minato and others to train in the school's training grounds.

"Well, I'm going to the Hokage's office now. You can go back now."

Then Tofu waved goodbye to Minato and walked towards the office.

Those who participated in the battle last night must gather in the office this morning. I hope Qufeng is not the last one to arrive.

It was too early at this time, as the guards at the Hokage Building had just changed shifts.

After saying hello, Qu Feng walked straight into the building and went straight to the office.

As soon as he opened the door, he found that the room was full of people. This scared Kerang Qufeng. He didn't expect that everyone came so early.

"Sorry guys, I'm a little late."

The clan leaders all shook their heads, apparently having no complaints about Qu Feng's late arrival.

"We just got here not long ago. We chatted for a while and then you arrived."

Qu Feng nodded and sat on the chair: "Everyone worked hard in the battle last night, I wonder if you slept well?"

"It's good. The main thing is that we won the battle. If we lost, I wouldn't be able to sleep!"

When Jiraiya said this, everyone started laughing and the atmosphere in the room immediately became better.

Afterwards, the clan leaders also said that they slept well last night.

After a brief greeting, Qu Feng went straight to the point: "I wonder how you felt about the battle last night?"

As soon as Qu Feng said this, everyone became agitated and began to express their feelings.

"I feel like there must be stronger people behind them. Konoha Village may still not be very safe."

"Their ninjutsu is quite varied, which broadens my horizons."

……

Although there were many different opinions at the moment, none of them gave Feng the answer he wanted until Orochimaru spoke.

"I feel that their strength is a little too weak. It's not what a Kage-level strength should be like."

As soon as he finished speaking, all eyes in the office turned to Orochimaru.

Qu Feng also clapped his hands: "Right! This is what I want to ask, do you have this feeling?"

In fact, it's not just Orochimaru, everyone has this feeling, but they just don't say it out loud so as not to make people think they are bragging.

But now that the Hokage has asked, I naturally cannot hide it.

For a moment everyone talked about how easy last night's battle was.

The office was a little noisy due to the numerous voices. The cane in Danzo's hand tapped the ground lightly, making a crisp sound.

"It is true that their chakra is at the level of Kage, but their combat awareness and thinking are no different from those of ordinary jonin. Rather than being Kage-level ninjas, it is more like they are forced up by some secret technique or secret medicine."

This sentence immediately touched upon Qufeng's idea. Although the ninja leader's chakra was at the mid-level of Kage, he did not have the combat thinking of a Kage at all.

This allowed Qufeng to win the battle easily.

But to say that one can be forcibly promoted to the shadow level by using secret techniques or secret medicines is a bit hard to say.

As of now, the various secret techniques and secret medicines of Konoha Village cannot achieve this.

"The Uchiha clan does have a secret medicine that can increase a person's strength for a short period of time. However, when the secret medicine loses its effect, the person's vitality will be overdrawn, eventually leading to death."

When he heard about this medicine, Qu Feng immediately thought of Uchiha Kyo. That guy secretly took the banned drug and eventually died.

But Jing also said that it would improve most of the strength in a short period of time and would also overdraw the vitality. Those ninjas didn't look like their vitality was overdrawn.

He was full of energy when he was sealed last night. I don’t know how he is now after being tortured all night.

"Jiraiya, go to the torture department to find out the situation, and then bring their chief here."

"Yes!"

After accepting the order, Jiraiya immediately turned around and went out to the interrogation department.

If they could get some valuable information, it would be worth their time fighting late last night.

Qu Feng waved his hand, and countless small stools appeared in the room: "Please sit down, everyone. The room is small, so I can't conjure up chairs."

"Thank you, Hokage-sama."

The clan leaders didn't choose and just sat down, everyone waiting for news from Jiraiya.

Hiruzen asked, "Hokage-sama, do we need to tell the Kazekage and Tsuchikage that we have captured the mysterious man?"

Qufeng waved his hand: "The Kazekage can tell, after all, we have reached a joint agreement, and as for the Iwagakure, it depends on your mood. If you want to give, then give. If you don't want to give, forget it."

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen bowed and indicated that he would obey the order.

Everyone waited for a short while before Jiraiya hurriedly rushed in with the head of the torture department.

"Hokage-sama! Something bad has happened!"

Hearing this, Qu Feng's heart skipped a beat, but he still calmed down and asked.

"What's wrong? What went wrong?"

Chapter 354: The Flame of the Torture Department

"Hokage-sama! Something bad has happened!"

Hearing this, Qu Feng's heart skipped a beat, but he still calmed down and asked.

"What's wrong? What went wrong?"

Jiraiya pushed the door open, holding onto the door frame with one hand while breathing heavily, "Come with me to the torture department and take a look."

Qu Feng stood up immediately upon hearing this, and everyone in the office followed him to the interrogation department.

The torture department is located on the edge of Konoha Village. Because the people being tortured are usually various criminals and enemy spies, the methods used are often very cruel.

If such a department is set up in a place where there are people, it will probably cause both physical and psychological discomfort to people.

So during the Second Hokage's time, they were moved to the edge of Konoha Village, surrounded by open space and training grounds, with no one living there.

The villagers all know the purpose of this place, so no one would bring bad luck upon themselves.

As soon as you enter, it feels like a hospital, with white walls and the corridors filled with the smell of disinfectant.

The further you go in, the more things around you seem to be wrong, with all kinds of torture instruments hanging on the walls.

But they all look like discarded things.

Although Qufeng is the Hokage, he rarely comes here, so he is not very familiar with the Torture Department.

Ever since Qu Feng came to power, the Interrogation Department has become an idle department with very little work to do, but whenever there is work, it must be big work.

Just better than those last night.

Jiraiya took Tofu and everyone else to the house to interrogate the twelve ninjas from last night.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw several ninjas in white clothes treating five people with blue faces.

White foam kept coming out of their mouths and their bodies kept twitching.

The remaining seven people were not in good condition either, and their faces were slightly blue.

Qufeng immediately used several healing spells on them, which restored their complexion.

But within a minute, it returned to its original state, and even faster.

The five ninjas lying on the ground gradually stopped twitching, and their entire bodies began to become stiff.
