People Do Not Share the Same Joys and Sorrows
Not only was Makoto Ito stunned, but everyone else was also somewhat dumbfounded when they saw this old man!
After all, this old man gave a really bad first impression...
Naruto stared at the old man in front of him with a strange expression.
The old man leaned against the door, glanced at Naruto and the others a few times, and then started acting crazy due to his drunkenness...
He pointed at Naruto while spouting nonsense...
"The shortest one looks a bit silly! Is someone this small really a ninja?"
But the simple-minded Naruto didn't realize the old man was talking about him, and upon hearing the old man's words, he burst into laughter...
"Hahahaha! Who are you talking about? Who's the shortest? Who looks a bit silly? Hahahaha..."
At that moment, Sasuke Uchiha Sakura Haruno, and Makoto Ito all silently walked to Naruto's side. After looking around, Naruto realized that he was the shortest one.
Suddenly, the room fell silent. People's joys and sorrows are different; Naruto only found their noise bothersome...
Naruto's height is really not his fault. Although the Fourth Hokage and his wife have excellent genes, Naruto has never had enough to eat since he was a child, so it is understandable that he is not tall. However, Naruto seems to have grown a lot in height recently because Makoto Ito has been treating Naruto to good food almost every day!
Besides Makoto Ito treating everyone, Sasuke Uchiha everyone, so Naruto was basically eating good and expensive food every day during this period!
Once he realized what was happening, Naruto glared angrily at the old man who was less than 1.5 meters tall!
"You damn bastard!!! How dare you mock your Naruto! I'll kill you!!!!"
Kakashi Hatake reacted swiftly, grabbing Naruto by the collar. Naruto was now suspended in mid-air, flailing his arms and legs wildly like a little turtle...
"Hey! Are you trying to kill our employer? You idiot!"
[Kushina Uzumaki: That damned, despicable old bastard! How dare he mock our Naruto!!! Damn Kakashi, let Naruto go! Let Naruto beat him up!!!]
[Minato Namikaze: After all, they're the employer, right? Is it really that bad to just beat them up like that?]
[Kushina Uzumaki: Damn Minato! He was just mocking our son!!!]
[Minato Namikaze: I don't think he should be beaten up. If I used the Flying Thunder God Technique, followed by the Rasengan, then the Flying Thunder God Stage Two Technique, and then the Rasengan Flash Super-Circle Dance Howl Stage Three, I believe it would give this old man a very deep memory!]
[Tobirama Senju: Good heavens, Fourth Hokage, are you trying to kill him?!]
[Minato Namikaze: No, my control over Chakra is still very strong. It will only sever his meridians, not kill him!]
Kushina Uzumaki: Uh...
Hizashi Hyuga: Goodness, why does it feel like the Fourth Hokage has changed so much since this Chat Group appeared and we learned about all these things?!
The Fourth Hokage used to always have a bright and cheerful smile on his face. Seeing that smile always warmed people's hearts; he was like a little sun in Konoha. But why are the words he's saying now so chilling?!
Minato Namikaze: Because my pain is greater than yours!!!
How many flights of stairs do you have to carry a bag of rice up? Two flights of stairs? If you give too much rice, you have to wash it a lot more! And then you wash so much mud off that bag of rice! Every bite is covered in mud! Who's going to give you a bag of rice like that?!
[Kushina Uzumaki: Shut up, you idiot!!! Did I not beat you enough last time? Adamantine Chains!!!]
[Minato Namikaze: Aaaaaaah! Stop hitting me! Honey! I was wrong! Aaaaaaahh...
All everyone could hear was Minato Namikaze making electronic noises as he was being beaten up by Kunina Minato Namikaze...
Meanwhile, in the outside world at this very moment...
This old man, who is less than 1.5 meters tall, suddenly became very serious!
"I'm a super famous bridge builder, Tazuna is talking about me!!!"
While I'm back in China building the bridge, you must protect me at all costs!!! Do you understand?!
[Izuna Uchiha: To be honest, this old man looks a bit annoying!]
[Madara Uchiha: How dare an ordinary person speak to a ninja like that? Who gave him the courage? Fish Leong?]
[Hashirama Senju: Who is Fish Leong?]
[Madara Uchiha: I don't know him either, I heard Makoto mention him before...]
[Tobirama Senju: This old man is indeed a bit annoying, but what can I do? He's the one who issued the quest.]
Makoto Ito watched this scene from the sidelines, and curled his lip in disapproval...
That damned old geezer! He mocks the ninjas he hired with such an arrogant look on his face, completely ignorant of the world of ninjas!
You lied about the mission level! And you even said you didn't have money to post missions, but you have plenty of money to drink, don't you?
And most importantly, he also resorted to moral blackmail. Such a person is truly disgusting. Thinking of this, Makoto Ito put on a strange smile. Wasn't the Third Hokage trying to get him to join Team 7?
Then I'll give this despicable Tazuna a good beating!
You're good at playing moral blackmail, aren't you? Sorry, I have no morals! Lying about mission levels and treating ninjas' lives like child's play, in that case, you won't pay me enough. I'll just bring Naruto and the others back halfway through the mission!
As for the bridge in the Land of Waves? What the hell does that have to do with me! I'm a ninja, not a saint!
