"You old guy is really 'old and don't tell much'!"
Shikamaru looked down at Tazuna and complained, with a rare sarcasm in his tone.
"Bagaya Road!"
Ya rushed forward, grabbed Tazuna's collar, and lifted his upper body up.
Akamaru also bared his teeth and let out a threatening growl.
"You guy, what do you think of our lives? Do you still want us to continue to help you? If you hadn't concealed the mission level, how could Teacher Hong have been injured!"
Tazuna's angry roar echoed in the small room, and Tazuna was shaken by him until his face turned blue. This old man who was accustomed to being mischievous and bullying was unable to even utter a word of defense at this time.
"Ya, let go of this old man!"
A harsh scolding broke his teeth.
Everyone looked at Kakashi.
Kakashi innocently spread his hands to express that he was not the one who shouted.
Shino silently gave way and the door was opened.
Asuma Sarutobi walked out with unprecedented anger on his face.
The cigarette held between his fingers had been pinched out of shape, and his eyes were so cold that they seemed to freeze.
"Ya, get out of the way."
Asuma's voice was eerily calm.
"Let me beat him to death."
If the old man hadn't concealed the mission level, Hong would not have received the mission, let alone be injured.
Tazuna released his grip and stepped aside. Akamaru, who had just bit Tazuna's leg, also let go and obediently made room for Asuma.
"You can't do this, I am Konoha's employer, you can't kill me!"
Tazuna collapsed on the ground, moving backwards on his hands and feet, with fear written all over his face.
"Our mission is to transport you to Land of Waves."
Shino pushed up his sunglasses, and the lenses reflected cold light.
"So the moment you arrive at Land of Waves, our mission is complete."
"But you have to settle the score for cheating us."
Asuma's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between the teeth.
He walked towards Tazuna step by step, his knuckles turning white from pinching.
Just when Asuma was about to take action, a black Long Hair woman suddenly rushed out from the back room, rushed over and hugged Asuma's thigh.
"Please don't kill my father!"
The woman raised her tear-stained face, her voice trembling but firm.
She is the daughter of Tazuna, named Tsunami.
Asuma's movements froze.
He beat this old man because he lied to them, but if he was asked to attack innocent women and children, Asuma really wouldn't do it.
"I... I am willing to pay you to entrust you to solve those Demon and Gato. Whether it is an A-level or S-level task, as long as the Land of Waves bridge is completed, then I will be able to pay."
Tazuna has begun to think of every possible way to survive, his voice trembling with fear.
"Can you even pay a million taels?"
Kakashi raised his eyebrows with doubt in his tone.
"Yes, as long as the bridge is opened, let alone one million, we can pay two million or three million!"
Tazuna hurriedly promised, as if grasping a life-saving straw.
"Asuma, please save his life first."
Kakashi turned to his companion who was still furious.
If you can get an extra commission fee, it will obviously be more advantageous not to kill this old man.
Whether it's reputation or actual benefits.
If this old man is killed, Konoha's reputation will be affected.
Kakashi thought of the past again.
Reputation is something that Konoha values, but it often gets in the way.
"Aren't you and Hong getting married soon? You two will take 70% of the money from this mission, and I will take the commission from the mission office."
These words made Asuma calm down a little.
Indeed, Konoha's consumption level is too high. Ninja earns quickly but spends it too.
What you earn is two, and what you spend is also two!
Just the pair of Asuma and Knuckle Blades made from Chakra-Conductive Metal cost at least tens of millions of taels.
After all, Chakra-Conductive Metal is sold by the gram, which is very expensive.
However, Kakashi's obstruction did not stop Asuma. He ignored Tsunami's pleading and grabbed Tazuna's neck. With just a push of his hand, the old man could be killed.
He doesn't care about that little money. Even if his relationship with his father is not very good, the old man will definitely take the money out when he gets married.
Seeing this scene, Kakashi couldn't persuade her any more, but it was a pity that she couldn't earn two money from one job this time.
"Kakashi-sensei is also short of money?"
Sakura asked quietly, with a bit of curiosity in his voice.
In her impression, this Elite Jonin really does not look like someone who would worry about money.
"Who doesn't need money?"
Kakashi glanced at Sakura with a rather helpless tone.
He sighed and continued to explain, "The loss of Ninja Tools, the purchase of military grain pills, and..."
He suddenly stopped mid-sentence, apparently thinking of the extra chapter "The Lustful Ninja Chronicles of Shimura" he just bought.
"When the time comes, you can also share fifty thousand taels as a base."
Kakashi Change the topic at the right time.
Sakura's eyes shine.
Fifty thousand taels!
Her first task was divided into seventy-five taels!
Fifty thousand divided by seventy-five is six hundred and sixty-six point six sixty-seven.
This mission is six hundred and sixty-six times that of the last time!
She was thinking quickly in her mind: she could buy new clothes for Parents, upgrade Ninja Tool Pouch, and buy a lot of things she wanted to buy before...
"Asuma, don't do anything."
At this time, Hong's weak voice came from the back room.
Asuma loosened his fingers after hearing this, hesitated for a moment and gave up killing Tazuna.
He let go of Tazuna, raised his leg, and signaled Tsunami, who was holding his thigh tightly, to let go.
Tsunami hesitantly let go of his hand and supported his father, who was breathing heavily and looking like he was surviving a disaster, watching Asuma warily as he retreated to Kakashi.
Kakashi glanced at her and quietly moved a step to the side.
"Red is right."
Asuma took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"The most important thing now is to formulate a plan to deal with Zabuza."
Kakashi stared with dead eyes and nodded, then turned to Tazuna: "Since you promised to pay for the S-level mission, we will perform it according to the standards of the S-level mission. But..."
He changed the topic. "If you can't get the money afterwards, you should know the consequences."
Tazuna nodded repeatedly, cold sweat already soaking his collar.
He didn't dare to play any tricks anymore.
Due to the high-speed march, the original three-day journey was compressed into one day, and several people were very sleepy at this time.
Even Naruto, who has amazing physical strength, can't hide his tiredness at this moment.
Kakashi and Asuma planned for a day or two before going to deal with Zabuza.
Facing a strong enemy with a tired body is tantamount to seeking death.
And at that time, Kakashi and Asuma will mainly fight against Zabuza, while the remaining Genin will go to clean up the miscellaneous soldiers.
This arrangement can not only keep the main force in the best condition, but also allow the Genins to accumulate practical experience in a relatively safe range.
"Hong and I will share a room. You allocate your own room." Asuma said and turned around and went into the room to take care of Hong.
Kakashi looked around at the remaining seven Genin: "There are two bedrooms left. One is the studio where Tazuna designed the bridge drawings, and the other is a storage room. I can assemble it myself. Mr. Tazuna and I live together, which is also convenient for 'protecting' the client."
He deliberately emphasized the word "protect", which made Tazuna shrink his neck in fear.
"How about the eldest sister Tsunami and her son Inari, and the remaining two rooms have one room for boys and one room for girls?"
Ya suggested.
