Good grief, he even made himself find the reason.

"Is your beef made of gold, or is this salt made of gold?"

Upon hearing this, the shop owner proudly declared, "This is top-grade Wagyu beef!"

"The salt is also carefully selected snowflake salt!"

"Every ingredient used is absolutely genuine and of the highest quality!"

Speaking of which,

The shop owner couldn't help but look Kakashi up and down.

He then asked with a suspicious look, "As Young Master Bai Ye's teacher..."

"You can't possibly not afford a single barbecue meal, can you~~~"

As soon as this word comes out,

This instantly infuriated Kakashi.

Especially that slightly disdainful expression, how could Kakashi possibly stand it?

He immediately took out his bankbook from his wallet and slapped it in front of the shop owner.

He said defiantly, "Check, please!!!"

Watching the shop owner take his bankbook away,

Kakashi's heart was bleeding.

That was money I had painstakingly saved up by completing tasks day after day, year after year.

An S-rank mission only costs around one million taels of silver.

Goodness, a single barbecue meal consumed a third of my S-rank mission reward.

That was truly a splurge.

While thinking about his own money, Kakashi suddenly had an idea.

Bai Ye placed the order before entering the store.

He immediately looked at Bai Ye with a resentful expression.

Seeing this, the latter smiled and patted Kakashi on the shoulder.

"Oh dear, a mere 350,000 taels is nothing!"

"For an elite Jonin like Kakashi-sensei, isn't this just a piece of cake—an S-rank mission?"

"It's only one percent of Asuma's head. If you feel bad about it, teacher, you can take Asuma's head to the black market and exchange it for money."

"That's a whopping thirty-five million taels!"

As Bai Ye's words became increasingly absurd,

Kakashi had no choice but to give up.

If Sarutobi Asuma heard this, he would definitely unleash his ultimate attack right up to Byakuya's face.

Sarutobi Asuma: Is this never going to end?! When will this ever end?!

Don't let me catch you! If I do, you'll be sorry! You little brat! Arminus!

Meanwhile, in the capital of the Land of Fire...

Inside the Temple of Fire,

Because he was severely humiliated by Bai Ye in front of so many people,

Sarutobi Asuma also knew that he had no face to stay in Konoha any longer.

He left Konoha again.

Back in Daming Prefecture,

However, after the Finance Minister returned, the way everyone in Daming Prefecture looked at him became increasingly strange.

Chapter 80: You look like you'll live a long life~

Unable to bear it any longer, Asuma went to the Temple of Fire.

Seek help from the land.

With Jiraiya's help, Asuma settled down at the Temple of Fire.

Seeking inner peace

Today, Asma, who was meditating as usual, suddenly sneezed violently.

A chill ran through my body.

It felt like someone was talking about me.

After looking around, Asuma assumed it was just a slight chill and stopped overthinking it.

Inside the barbecue restaurant,

Kakashi paid the bill with a pained expression.

The five people then came out.

As soon as he stepped outside, Kakashi reverted to his usual indifferent and aloof expression.

It was as if he wasn't the one who just paid.

Little did they know, even now Kakashi's heart was bleeding.

That's all money I painstakingly saved up; I don't know how many copies of Icha Icha Paradise I could have bought with that!

It was all gone in one meal.

The five people arrived at a fork in the road,

After checking the time, Kakashi looked towards the four of them.

"Well then, everyone, go home and get some rest today!"

"Starting tomorrow, you will begin your ninja career!"

"Remember not to be late tomorrow morning, there's a mission!"

Having said that, he immediately vanished from the spot using the Body Instant Technique.

I went home alone, intending to watch "Icha Icha Paradise" several more times to soothe my wounded heart.

see,

The four of them, including Bai Ye, naturally returned to their respective homes.

As for Kakashi's claim about a mission tomorrow, Byakuya didn't believe it at all.

The newly formed team

The usual tasks are finding cats and dogs and picking up trash.

Only a fool would want to do that kind of task.

Let the three of them do it.

I take advantage of the early morning when the sun is at its most comfortable to bask in.

Thinking of this, Bai Ye's mood immediately improved.

When I got home,

Hinata then went to Byakuya's side and told him what had happened in the team that day.

And the teachings of Ms. Kurenai Yuhi.

Originally not particularly interested, Bai Ye suddenly became wide awake upon hearing the name "Red Sunset."

The two chatted like that in the room.

We talked about everything from the south to the north of the sea.

They were wearing less and less clothing as they talked.

They remained silent all night.

.

The next day,

Early in the morning, Sakura got ready and arrived at the meeting point full of confidence.

However, it turned out that...

No one showed up.

I waited for who knows how long.

It's almost time to meet up.

Sasuke and Naruto arrived at the meeting point one after the other.

But Bai Ye was nowhere to be seen.

An unknown amount of time has passed.

The meeting time had long passed, but Byakuya was still nowhere to be seen, and even Kakashi, the instructor Jonin, hadn't arrived.

"No, where are they?!"

"Naruko, didn't you go to teach Byakuya-kun this morning?"

"No, aren't we supposed to meet right here?"

"And Kakashi-sensei didn't come either."

After exchanging words for a while, the three of them suddenly looked at each other in bewilderment.

I just felt like I'd been tricked.

But now the three of them don't know what to do.

They could only continue to wait in vain in the same place.

As time goes by...

Just as the three of them were getting a little impatient,

Kakashi's figure had just come into view when the three of them saw him.

"Oh, I'm so sorry."

"While passing by, I unexpectedly encountered a black cat blocking my way~"

"It took a little while~"

"Kakashi-sensei, could you at least dry your mask before lying?"...

"He's been hiding somewhere reading banned books, his mouth is practically watering!"

Looking at the unusually obvious drool stains on Kakashi's mask,

Sakura and her two friends were speechless.

At this moment, everyone believes that

Kakashi's guidance of Jonin is so unreliable.

Seeing the disdain on their faces,

Kakashi scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

He hurriedly took out the mission he had received from the Hokage's office that morning from his pocket.

Using this as a cover, he said, "Honestly, I just went to the Hokage to get the mission for you guys~"

That's why I'm late~

As he spoke, he handed the mission scroll to the three of them.

Looking at the mission scroll in his hand,
