My ninjutsu is not right

Chapter 44 The Second B-Rank Mission

One month later, Konoha Village, Link's home, early morning.

"Dingling bell~"

Link opened his eyes, turned off the alarm, got up drowsily, and walked into the bathroom.

At the same time, a shadow exactly like him on the ground stood up, walked into the kitchen area and started cooking.

"Wow~"

There was a flushing sound.

Ten minutes later, Link finished washing up, wiped his face with a towel, and walked out of the bathroom. He yawned and sat down at the dining table. Shadow placed the fried eggs, toasted bread, and hot milk in order. Then he turned back to the two-dimensional state.

"Today I'm going to carry out my first B-rank mission with Mr. Yanshui. No, it's my second B-rank mission..."

As he ate his breakfast, his mind gradually became clearer and he thought about what he was going to do today.

The development of the Shadow Clone came to an end half a month ago, and he also applied to the village for a large number of Ninjutsu scrolls.

After all, judging from the attitude of the Sandaime Hokage, he should be somewhat optimistic about him. He has the right not to let it expire and scrap it. It's a good opportunity to try and see if he can get the application.

He didn't go too far, he just applied for a small number of, well, more than seventy ninjutsu, which included a large number of various C and D-level escape techniques, as well as B and A-level medical ninjutsu, oh, and summoning techniques and sealing techniques.

As for his average chakra, and the fact that he has not yet completed the second nature transformation...

Well, if there is a date or not, just try it.

He himself had no money to buy it, and he had already been promoted to Chunin. The Third Hokage still had high hopes for him, so he had to shamelessly ask for it.

"Yes, my cooking skills are getting better and better." Link finished his breakfast and nodded with satisfaction.

In his hands, the Shadow Clone Technique is a debuff skill against the enemy. It also has a very interesting little trick, which is that after his shadow is separated, it will not go back due to the consumption of physical strength.

To put it simply, it is a permanent skill for himself. The consumption of anything the clone does when he stands up is the same as if he did it himself. As long as he does not fight, the consumption in daily life is really very low.

In addition, after changing back to the two-dimensional state, the consumption is reduced to another level, so even if he maintains it around the clock, it will not be a big deal.

Do you know what this means?

It means that he can finally get rid of the daily housework, and no longer have to worry about cooking, washing clothes, cleaning, or even...

Link put on the clothes that he had washed and hung to dry yesterday, and stood next to the door frame to compare the height to the wall. Shadow was busy putting scroll covers, kunai covers, and various ninja tools on him.

"I'm already 1.36 meters tall. I've been growing so fast recently." Seeing his height increase by another centimeter, he raised his arms and let Shadow put the green vest on him and pulled the wrinkled lining for him.

He turned his head to look at the handsome Chunin Link in the mirror, and put on a cool expression with a stern face. He first crossed his arms in front of his chest, and then tried to open the thumb and index finger of his right hand, clench the other three fingers, and place them under his chin.

It's definitely going to be much cooler.

"Very good, let's go!"
-
The gate of Konoha Village.

"Morning, Mr. Yanshui~" Link took the initiative to greet the last Jonin to arrive.

Nara Yano nodded to his three subordinates and said, "Good morning." Then he threw a scroll over and said, "Information about this mission." Link took the scroll and opened it. Iris and Kasumi beside him also came over to take a look.

They knew the content of the mission when they accepted it together yesterday.

[Escorting a wealthy businessman from the Land of Fire to the Land of Rivers to participate in the bidding for a gold mine]

The mission takes about two months to escort the target from Konoha Village to the city in River Country, and then protect the target until returning to the Land of Fire.

It is an escort mission that is not very difficult. There is a high possibility of encountering a battle between ninjas. The bounty is 150,000 taels, which is quite high among B-level missions. Otherwise, it would be impossible to hire a senior ninja.

According to the information provided by Nara Yushiro, the hostile ninjas are likely to be from the Hidden Rain Village and the Hidden Sand Village.

The gold mine that needs to be bid was first excavated by a Rain Country businessman in the northern area of River Country near Rain Country. Not long ago, the businessman was assassinated and the gold mine became ownerless. The River Country official publicly sold it to the public. Currently, there are only three companies participating in the bidding:

The Kingdom of Fire, the Kingdom of Wind, and the Kingdom of Rain.

Therefore, the opponents mentioned in the intelligence may come from the Hidden Rain Village and the Hidden Sand Village.

Being a ninja is not an honorable profession, and there is no distinction between justice and evil. It is common for people to hire ninjas to assassinate each other due to commercial competition. If you don't want to be assassinated, you naturally have to hire ninjas to protect you.

Under such involution, the commercial activities in the Naruto world are a little more realistic——

Just kill your opponent.

"Interesting--" Link looked at the intelligence scroll and suddenly remembered the first B-rank mission he had completed, the one that required a pick-up of a female ninja who was being hunted by the Hidden Rain Village ninjas.

He looked up and Nara Yanshui blinked, saying nothing, yet it seemed as if he had said everything.

"I heard that the shadows of Sand Village can make gold?" Iris asked curiously, "Why are they fighting for the gold mine?"

It's no secret that the Kage of the Sand Village sells gold sand, and it is often used to trade with other countries. At the same time, the Sand Village has not curbed the spread of this kind of gossip in order to demonstrate its financial strength and ability. Even for a Genin, as long as he has been in the industry for a long time, hearing this kind of information is nothing.

"First of all, the Fourth Kazekage does not make gold." Nara Yui corrected. Using special techniques to collect gold sand is indeed powerful, but it is far from the level of making gold. Otherwise, the Sand Village would not have been poor until now.

"Secondly, the more we can sell the gold, the more we don't want the gold mine to fall into the hands of others..."

He said something meaningful, without explaining too much, but said: "They are coming."

A team of carriages were slowly walking along the road towards the open gate. Nara Yano took the lead and jumped down. After talking for a few words with a man dressed as a samurai, he called out to the three subordinates following behind to catch up with the main force.

The traffic in the Naruto world is also weird——

There are bicycles, there are vehicles similar to cars in certain areas, there will be railways and "thunder cars" in the future, and there are also ships, sailboats, steamships and other things that look modern.

However, when the rich and powerful went out, they rode in sedan chairs carried by people, and merchants still used horse-drawn carriages for travel and transportation.

It's so weird and confusing. I just won't use the technology after I click on it, right?

Link commanded Iris and Kasumi to go to the two sides of the convoy, while he followed behind the convoy. Looking at the slowly moving carriage team, he couldn't help but sigh at this completely unscientific technology tree.

No wonder it took two months, it’s too slow!
