Handel Duby asked, "I wonder how long it will take for the Kirigakure Village to arrive and provide support after we notify them."
Mei Terumi extended her palm, looked at it, and said, "Considering the distance between us, 5 minutes."
"We can definitely get to the scene in 5 minutes."
At their speed, they could arrive in a shorter time, but Mei Terumi still gave the answer of 5 minutes.
Hearing this, Handel Duby nodded secretly.
"Five minutes is no problem, but I don't know how much the commission fee will be."
Mei Terumi spoke up, "I don't know how many people the Sound Ninja will send, or what their strength is."
"500 Energy Block, Kimimaro 300 Energy Block, Ao 300 Energy Block, and Haku 200 Energy Block."
"A total of 1300."
"Once the Sound Ninja attacks, no matter how many come, even if it's just one person, the price will be the same."
Hearing the number 1,300, Handel Duby was taken aback. He hadn't expected the price to be so high; his authority didn't allow for such a large quantity, and his initial budget hadn't been that high.
"Mizukage, ever since Konoha took the Tesseract, we haven't had any Energy Block to produce anything."
"We only have 300 Energy Block here, but you can choose any 5 items from 084 Object."
Upon hearing that there were only 300 Energy Block, Mei Terumi frowned slightly before saying, "10 084 Object."
Handel Duby: "Six items, two for Mizukage, and one item each for the others. How about 084 Object?"
Mei Terumi shook her head and said, "No, as far as I know, the value of your 084 Object is very unstable. You need at least 10 items, otherwise this mission is off."
"Your stuff isn't as valuable as Energy Block."
Seeing that Mei Terumi was not negotiating, Handel Duby reluctantly agreed.
"Okay, we'll do it your way."
Seeing that the other party had agreed, Mei Terumi smiled and said, "You need to give me the 300 Energy Block as a deposit in advance."
Handel Duby nodded. "No problem, someone will bring it to you shortly."
Mei Terumi took out her Business Card and said, "Call me immediately after you are attacked."
"I will come to your aid immediately."
Looking at the Business Card that Mei Terumi took out, Handel Duby accepted it, carefully put it in his jacket pocket, and then said, "Don't we need to sign a mission Commission Form?"
Mei Terumi smiled and said, "I didn't bring any blank Mission Request Scroll with me when I came."
Upon hearing this, Handel Duby, "Isn't this something that can be drafted on any kind of paper?"
Could it be that the Mission Scroll has some special power, or is it something like a magical contract?
"That's a bit of a shame, I haven't signed a mission Commission Form with a ninja yet."
"Now that the matter is settled, I won't bother you any further."
Handel Duby, along with Steve and Rumlow, left the Mist Ninja Base and immediately headed towards S.H.I.E.L.D..
Watching the three leave, Kimimaro stepped forward and asked, "Was the Sound Ninja attacked?"
Mei Terumi laughed, "Yes, S.H.I.E.L.D.. used firearms; it's most likely been blown to rubble."
"I just don't know if those little ones will survive."
"I need to report this to my superiors immediately. I hope they won't object to my decision to accept S.H.I.E.L.D..'s employment without my consent."
"After all, it's collecting items for the adults, he shouldn't have any objections..."
Kimimaro looked at the Mizukage before him and said in a cold voice, "I need to go out for a bit."
Mei Terumi Kimimaro with icy eyes. "You're not allowed to go. I know what you're planning."
"But if you dare to ruin my plans without an adult's order, I'll melt your bones."
Sensing Mei Terumi's terrifying aura, Kimimaro remained silent and turned back to his room.

Nick Fury soon received a report from Handel Duby, informing him that he had secured a commitment from four members of Kirigakure, including the Mizukage, to protect him after spending 300 Energy Block and 10 084 Object.
Furthermore, Handel Duby reported that the Mission Scroll might have special binding effects, and the Mizukage did not carry Mission Scroll.
Upon hearing his subordinate's report, Nick Fury nodded secretly.
Kirigakure, which lacks a teleportation portal, may not have resources like Mission Scroll.
They were also curious why the Mist Ninja hadn't directly attacked the Sound Ninja, instead taking their teleportation portal and only taking away Kimimaro, the Sound Ninja's strongest fighter.
However, Kirigakure accepted this mission, hoping that the Mist Ninja would kill the Sound Ninja, thus mitigating some of the risk.
As for the Avengers, Nick Fury shook his head, saying it was best not to gather them.
Otherwise, if Tony finds out that he destroyed the Sound Ninja because of one person, it will probably end in a bad fight.
However, this alone is not enough; he still needs to make some arrangements.
S.H.I.E.L.D.. not only needs to withstand the enemy's counterattack, but ideally, they should be able to eliminate the enemy without the Kirigakure Village intervening. This would also increase their influence in the eyes of the ninjas.

On the other side.
Charlotte then received information from Mei Terumi via her summoning Summoned Beast, learning that Nick Fury had spent 300 Energy Block and 10 084 Object to hire Kirigakure.
"I didn't expect Black Egg to still have Energy Block. I thought he had already used up the Physical Enhancement Serum he bought last time."
"However, since that's the case, I'll gladly accept this resource."
Charlotte then had her Summoned Beast deliver a message to Mei Terumi, telling her that she had done a good job, that she must obtain the quest item, and that if necessary, she could try to raise the price further.
After replying to Mei Terumi, Charlotte Doyle retrieved the Blood Core that Konan had previously sent.
Ding! Items available for recharge have been found. Do you wish to recharge?
Top up!
Ding! Top-up successful. You have received 60,000 Gold Coin.
Upon receiving 60,000 Gold Coin, Charlotte decided to put his plan into action. He had previously considered having the Otogakure retaliate against S.H.I.E.L.D.. under the guise of hiring the Akatsuki.
But considering what Akatsuki was doing, he had a better idea: to let the Sound Ninja take action themselves.
It's important to know that Sound Ninja Village was founded by Orochimaru, and Orochimaru had many skilled ninjas under his command, including Guren who used Crystal Release, Karin Uzumaki from the Orochimaru Uzumaki Clan, Hozuki Suigetsu, as well as Jūgo and Yakushi Kabuto, and finally Orochimaru himself, who served as both a trump card and a backup Orochimaru.
Meanwhile, Orochimaru, the S-rank Ninja he was about to recruit, was only 6 fragments short, while Guren was only 10 fragments short.
These 60,000 Gold Coin are more than enough for him to recruit these two; let the Sound Ninja their own scores.
As for Orochimaru, let him betray us like Itachi Uchiha. It just so happens that the S-rank Ninja Orochimaru we recruited this time is the same Orochimaru who defected from Konoha and joined the Akatsuki before.
By this time, he had already founded the Otogakure. If he knew that his Otogakure had been bombed by S.H.I.E.L.D.., how could he not be furious?
