My ninjutsu is not right

Chapter 53 Additional Mission and Mission End
"Chuunin Digumouse."

"Chunnin Saint Simon."

The other two Chunins also introduced themselves.

"Chunin, Link." Link's expression was very calm, but what he was thinking in his heart was that he did not bring his special shoes for Kobayashi when he went on a mission.

There was no way. Although he was growing rapidly this year due to adequate nutrition, he was only nine years old and less than 1.4 meters tall. On weekdays, he could wear his secret shoes in the village to pretend to be 1.4 meters tall, but open-toed sandals were more useful when performing tasks.

Teacher Yanshui is nearly 1.8 meters tall, the two Chunin colleagues are around 1.7 meters tall, and Yuhi Kurenai is 1.69 meters tall...

The three adults had no time to pay attention to him as their focus was actually on his height. Dishu sighed that young people nowadays were so talented. It was not difficult to become a Genin, but it was difficult to become a Chunin. One had to have enough strength and intelligence. It took him many years to achieve this.

"The client has added an A-level mission." Nara Yanshui immediately revealed a big secret, "Protect the client to complete the acquisition of the gold mine."

The two Chunins who came to support did not change their expressions.

Link also remained silent. Sure enough, things were heading in a bad direction.

A Chunin has no right to interrupt when two Jonins are discussing a mission.

"Is he sure?" Xihi Hong asked, "How long will it take?"

"Yes." Nara Yanshio responded, "The Sand Village bribed the officials of the River Country before, and the merchant from the Rain Country who had the priority to choose died, so they were able to easily get the gold mine at a very high price."

"He will be able to buy the gold mine in a week before other merchants from the Wind Country come."

Yuhi Kurenai nodded and approved the mission.

"Link, do you have any ideas?" Surprisingly, Nara Yanshui actually asked for his subordinates' opinions.

Saint Simon's expression looked a little strange, but he didn't say anything. The Jonin wanted to do something and who he wanted to ask. Even if he had some doubts in his heart, he could only hold it in and bear it.

"..." Link hesitated for a moment, and realized that it was his ability during the day to instantly restrict or even kill a jonin that made Teacher Yanshui start to pay attention to his right to speak.

After thinking it over again and again, he asked, "Will the Sand Village have any objections to this?" He paused and added, "I heard that the economic situation of the Sand Village has not been very good. It relies on the sale of gold placer to maintain its economy. The loss of the gold mine is likely to cause problems in the sale of gold placer."

The economy is sometimes like this, expectations are reflected earlier than reality. Even if the gold mining has not started yet, the Sand Village that lost the gold mine is destined to not be able to sell the gold at the original price.

After hearing the rest, Kurenai Yuhi and the two Chunins didn't quite understand why the story jumped to the gold sand trading topic, and they looked obviously puzzled.

Nara Yano looked at Link in surprise. It must be said that he had overestimated his talented subordinate.

I didn't expect that he has such vision and overall view. Ordinary Chunin, and even many special Jonin and Jonin do not have such mature concepts.

He shook his head. "Even if we are allies, there are still many things we don't need to care about."

"In other words, properly weakening our allies will also be beneficial to us."

What allies? Once the war begins, they are basically enemies.

[Didn't you expect that the Sand Village might be pushed to the edge of desperation?] Link didn't say anything else. He had already said a lot to show off himself. The remaining conclusion, the plan to collapse Konoha, was a fantasy that he couldn't even talk about with others.

Under normal circumstances, the weakened Sand Village would not have the opportunity to do anything desperate, but with Orochimaru...

"That's all." Nara Yanshui said with a serious expression, "I'll trouble you all for the next week."
-
Five days later, in Kawa no Kuni, outside the official residence. "A-level mission!"

Iris sighed, he never dreamed that he would be able to participate in an A-level mission in his first year after graduation, and it was almost completed.

Xia was absent-mindedly fiddling with the kunai in her hand, not knowing what she was thinking about.

Two senior ninjas, one visible and one invisible, were responsible for close protection of the Fire Country's wealthy businessmen, and two middle ninjas were responsible for observation from the outside. The responsibility of their Link Squad became to wait outside with the convoy and provide support at any time in case of an accident.

The main reason is that the two Genin are not qualified to participate in B-level missions, let alone A-level missions. Link is a newly promoted Chunin, so he naturally becomes the backup fire team.

It is highly likely that not much of the bounty for this A-level mission will be shared among them.

[I have already shown enough in this mission. There is no need to show off myself again.]

Link thought about it, and he had a hunch that if it was really Orochimaru's doing, the next acquisition of the gold mine by the Fire Country's wealthy businessmen would most likely be unusually smooth.

But even if the acquisition of the gold mine was prevented, the ability to launch the Konoha collapse plan was a result of long-accumulated dissatisfaction and its own excessive weakness.

If there is no way to kill Orochimaru, the plan of Konoha's collapse next year cannot be stopped.

However, chaos may also be a stepping stone to progress...

Link let out a breath slowly. He didn't know how many ninjutsu he could request from the Sandaime Hokage, but he hoped it would be more.

There were quite a few members in the convoy before the departure, but now only a few are able to drive the car. The warriors were almost wiped out, and those who are still alive are lying in the hotel.

Although the wealthy businessman from the Fire Nation was a little cold-blooded, he found specialized doctors to treat the samurai after they calmed down, and most of them survived.

"Boss." Xia seemed to have made up her mind and asked, "I, I have a friend who has always been mean to a classmate in school..."

This friend you're talking about?
Link said: "If you feel that you have done something wrong now, persuade her to apologize."

Mingming Xia hasn't said whether her friend is a boy or a girl, why did the boss just say "she"...

Iris complained in her heart.

"..." Xia took a deep breath and said, "I understand."

"Do you want us to go with you?" Link asked. He could see that his companion was very embarrassed, but being willing to speak out when he did something wrong was already progress.

Life-and-death battles are indeed the best way to make a person grow.

The girl who used to have princess syndrome would not only show compassion to the injured, but also reflect on the wrong things she had done in the past.

Iris belatedly looked at her companions and said, "The friend you just mentioned—"

"Shut up!" Xia said with a straight face.

"No, ah, I remember now, when you were in school, you seemed to often bully someone... um" Iris tried hard to recall.

“Shut up!!!” Xia rushed over, pinched his neck hard and shook him back and forth.
