Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

But you can't wear it!

Although he kept talking about youth, he was actually from the bottom of society, and his life was really tough.

He spent his entire life as a commoner ninja, barely earning any money.

He invested all the little money he had into his son, while his own body suffered from chronic malnutrition and was riddled with hidden injuries.

His only outburst resulted in the killing of four members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, but he gained nothing in return.

At best, it means that no one dares to underestimate his son, Mike Kay, who also practices the Eight Gates Formation!

But things are different now.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist were all killed by King Uchiha. Although Mike Day is still alive, he remains an insignificant nobody.

under these circumstances.

Although he talks about youthful passion and enthusiasm, he is actually very insecure.

Chapter 182 Uchiha Jin's tactics: bestowing favors, giving money, and cultivating bonds!

"Senior Dai, don't be shy."

"The reason I summoned you here through the Hokage is actually about the Eight Gates."

"I used my mission reward to directly exchange for the Eight Gates Formation. After some investigation, I discovered that among the cultivators from the Second Hokage's era, you are the only one who is still a ninja."

"So, naturally, we invited you to come for this training of the Eight Gates Formation."

"For the next period of time, Senior Dai should stay in the Uchiha clan territory."

"The period during which I finish my cultivation will be considered your mission period, and the mission bonus will be calculated as a B-level mission."

"Considering that Senior Dai has family, the money will be settled once a month."

"Tentatively set at 300,000 taels per month!"

"Is there a problem?"

Uchiha Jin had a broad smile on his face.

Of course, someone like Mike Day wouldn't say something as stupid as trying to recruit you on the first meeting.

Everything must be done step by step.

Mike Day was just an ordinary citizen, and a rather simple one at that, without any guile, and slightly insecure.

It's best to keep the filth of the higher-ups a secret.

otherwise.

Mike Kai is so naive; he'll support whoever becomes Hokage.

He cannot judge right from wrong.

As for Mike Day...

He's just running away!

Perhaps he could sense right from wrong, but a weak commoner like him just wanted to hide away and live his own quiet life.

But this is the true mentality of ordinary people.

and so.

For ordinary civilian ninjas, providing them with ninjutsu, ninja tools, and resources is enough.

But for someone like Mike Day, you can only take it one step at a time.

First and foremost, it is about bestowing favors.

Mastering the Eight Gates Formation is no short-term endeavor.

It could take anywhere from three to five months to several years.

Three hundred thousand taels each month.

For a B-level mission, this is the starting price, but it doesn't require team allocation or village commission.

Judging from Mike Day's situation, he even has a hard time finding a team for C-level missions.

Even if we find the ninja team, based on the highest bounty of 200,000 taels for a C-rank mission...

The village takes one-tenth of the tax, which is 60,000 taels.

The remaining 140,000 taels of silver had to be distributed among the four team members.

Moreover, the captain still takes the lion's share.

Based on this calculation, Dai would only earn a maximum of 30,000 to 40,000 taels for a C-level mission.

To know.

For Mike Day, C-level missions are something he'd rather avoid.

He usually takes on mostly D-level missions, such as finding cats and dogs. These missions start at 500 taels and end at 10,000 taels.

Even if you work yourself to death for a month, how much can you earn?

therefore.

The bounty offered by Uchiha Jin may seem meager on the surface, but for Mike Day, it was an astronomical sum.

First show kindness, then cultivate feelings.

Then slowly build a bond. For someone like Mike Day, sincerity is the ultimate weapon!

Although the methods are dirty, all those who achieve great things do so.

In short.

The greatest act of kindness Uchiha Jin was to not deliberately harm Mike Day and to let him live a good life.

After all, no matter what.

It's still better than the hard life Mike Day is going through now, isn't it?

This is also true.

Upon hearing Uchiha Jin's words, Mike Day was instantly stunned.

The Eight Gates Formation?!

He would feel inferior if he talked about other things, but if he talked about this, his back would ache and his legs would stop hurting.

After all, this was the only thing he could offer!

Especially money!

Now that he's getting older, he understands the importance of money very well.

Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your son Kai!

Three hundred thousand taels a month is no small sum.

Perhaps he himself knew in his heart that there was something wrong with this number.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

He understands all of this!

But there was nothing they could do.

Even knowing there was a pit ahead, he still chose to jump in.

Not for myself, but for my son!

You should know that Mike Kay is currently at the age where he is growing rapidly.

Not to mention that Kai practices the Eight Gates Formation, a physical technique that consumes a lot of the body's energy.

He has a special medicinal bath formula!

When Tobirama Senju gathered these people for training, he naturally distributed a special formula.

But the problem is...

He doesn't have the money; he can't afford it!

Given Mike Day's current situation, it would be quite good if Mike Kay could have three meals a day with meat at every meal.

Yes.

The edge of Konoha is covered in countless forests, and there are indeed countless wild beasts, but he has no way to hunt them.

Because these forests are the private property of various ninja clans.

In other words, it can be used by ninja academy students during trials and training, but real ninjas are not allowed to hunt privately without permission.

To truly hunt and obtain wild animal meat, one must venture deep into the Death Forest.
