Naruto: Two opponents versus Naruto, Konoha panics!

Chapter 228 Reject Moral Blackmail!

"The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are probably all arrogant and proud individuals."

"If it weren't for my strength, it would be acceptable... but that's the problem..."

Because of Might Guy, Naruto's impression of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist wasn't particularly good.

Hidden Mist Village: "..."

Are the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist too weak?!

hateful!

Matt Daly: Hahaha~

Matt Day: It seems like you've done something incredible.

"Our Land of Waves is an extremely poor and small country."

Even the daimyo of the Land of Waves doesn't have much money.

"Actually, I didn't want to issue a C-rank mission either, but... the Land of Waves is just too poor, this is almost the limit of what everyone can afford."

"If we increase the compensation further... we won't even be able to afford the materials needed to build the bridge."

"The bridge will benefit both the Land of Waves and the Land of Fire once it's built... but there are always people trying to sabotage it... we really have no other choice."

"If you don't protect me, I'll surely die... and the bridge will never be built."

"Playing the victim?" Sasuke sneered.

He wanted to take the task, but it wasn't something this old man could control.

"It's true that what you say is tragic, but the problem is, it has nothing to do with us. In fact... if it weren't for our strength, there would probably already be casualties!" Sakura's tone was equally unfriendly.

Tazna was taken aback.

She immediately lowered her head and forced out tears.

Kakashi nodded slightly.

He was very satisfied with Class 7's performance.

[In fact, it feels like Class 7 has completely surpassed Class Minato.]

"It seems that with Naruto around, Team 7 will continue to grow rapidly."

Thinking this, Kakashi looked at Tazuna.

Tazner shuddered, then squeezed out tears and said in despair:

"Never mind... this mission is really too dangerous."

"The reward is just one of many issues," Naruto said with a faint smile.

"Yes, I understand," Tazna said dejectedly.

"I'll go back alone. I've accepted my fate of dying, but..."

"I didn't issue C-rank missions for my own benefit..."

"You spent a considerable amount of money on alcohol; it's barely enough to cover the reward for a B-level mission."

"How did you know?!" Tazuna stared wide-eyed at Naruto, his face filled with disbelief.

[In an instant, Tazuna realized what was happening, quickly lowered his head, and continued to grieve.]

"My poor grandson... he's not even ten years old... and he's being threatened every day..."

"And my daughter... She's already lost her husband, and I'm afraid she'll soon be fatherless... She'll probably spend the rest of her life filled with resentment towards the Konoha ninjas and die a miserable death..."

【Bang--】

[The instant the words fell.]

A foot was already imprinted on his face.

Everyone was stunned by this scene.

But at the same time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

comfortable.

Trying to use moral blackmail?!

It's still about moral blackmailing these kids who have just become ninjas.

Its heart is awkward!

Kushina Uzumaki: "That's so pitiful!"

Kushina Uzumaki: "Naruto in this world was almost killed!"

Kushina Uzumaki: "Ahem... It's a bit embarrassing, but it's the truth. Genin who aren't mentally prepared have an extremely high mortality rate!"

Minato Namikaze: We're in a semi-peaceful period now, so it's understandable that the genin haven't seen bloodshed before.

Kushina Uzumaki: "You...you tell me yourself!"

Minato Namikaze: ......

Those familiar with these two were speechless.

I have a bad feeling.

Don't start showing off your love in the middle of an argument!

Tazner was kicked to the ground.

"Some things shouldn't be said carelessly."

"Otherwise, even if we kill you, no one will bother us, and they might even continue to bother you."

Naruto glanced at Tazuna indifferently.

"In that case, let's go back."

That kick just now was from Naruto.

[This surprised several people.]

Of course, even if someone knew, no one would stop them.

Tazna was momentarily lost in thought.

Without hesitation, she lunged forward and grabbed Kakashi's leg.

"Please!"

"I'm begging you!"

"If you leave... the Land of Waves is truly doomed!"

【"I......"】

This time, Tazna couldn't keep up the act any longer.

The effect is naturally much better than that previous annoying look.

Kakashi looked somewhat helpless.

[Naruto made the decision, so why is he coming to me for help?]

However, to be honest, Kakashi also felt very uncomfortable.

"Let go!"

This time, Naruto wasn't asked to do it himself.

Sakura shouted sharply.

"Please, please!"

Tazna knelt directly in front of the four men.

He kept kowtowing, no longer daring to harbor even the slightest hope.

[He kowtowed until his head was bleeding.]

Sasuke frowned slightly.

[Then he looked at Naruto.]

Seeing that Naruto remained unmoved, he didn't say anything either, just put his hands in his pockets and coldly stared at Tazuna.

After a long silence, Naruto finally spoke.

"Two choices."

"First, go back yourself. We'll go back and report on the mission."

"Then I will inevitably die... It doesn't matter if I die, but... we can't just go on like this... there will be no hope."

[Dazner raised his head, tears streaming down his face.]

He pleaded with Naruto.

"Secondly, let's continue the mission and help you solve the problem."

"As you said, after the bridge is built, the Land of Waves and the Land of Fire will be connected."

"To get rich, build roads first; the same applies to building bridges."

"If you can represent the Land of Waves, then this matter is worth discussing."

Upon hearing this, Tazuna nodded quickly, "Yes! I can! Over the years... I still have considerable influence in the Land of Waves!"

【"very good."】

Naruto's lips curled slightly as he helped Tazuna to his feet.

"Then this mission qualifies as an S-rank mission."

"The reward is the highest level of reward."

"Because you're going to delay payment, and considering the previous cover-up... this is the highest possible payment, you shouldn't have any objections, right?"

Tazner was stunned.

"No IOU is needed, but you must pay us."

"I'm giving you two and a half years."

"That's true. Even if we have to sell everything we own, including our own names, we still have to pay back this fee."

"If you're not going to pay... then you'd better be prepared."

Looking at the blond young man with the gentle smile on his face, who gave off a reassuring feeling.

Tazna's legs buckled, and he sat down heavily on the ground.

Naruto clearly didn't have much patience.

Naruto has the utmost contempt for people like that.

However, this isn't just his problem.

[It's about Class 7.]

[We cannot allow Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi, who is a Jonin instructor, to suffer losses because of his words.]

【"good!"】

After a long silence, Tazna made his decision.

With a determined look, he agreed to Naruto's terms.

"Let's go."

Naruto didn't say anything more.

The three looked at each other in bewilderment.

Is this even possible?

Kakashi scratched his head and helped Tazuna up.

[“Isn’t it true that I’m the one guiding the Jonin and leading this team?”]

"Never mind, as long as the result is good."

Kakashi watched Naruto's retreating figure, shook his head, and smiled.

"If Minato were here, he probably wouldn't have handled it this way... but Naruto seems to have handled it better, and it's more acceptable to people."

The atmosphere had clearly improved as we resumed our journey.

Tazna, like a lackey, kept showering him with concern and attention.

The atmosphere became slightly more lively.

We camped overnight, waiting for the boats to arrive at dawn.

The following morning, Tazna's friends arrived by boat to fetch them.

At this time, visibility on the water's surface was extremely low due to the fog.

[A smile spread across Dazner's old face.]

After spending time with them, he discovered that this team didn't seem difficult to get along with.

[I thought Naruto was the fiercest person, but it turns out he's the easiest to talk to.]

Little did he know, in just a few words, he revealed everything about the Land of Waves.

Naruto's plan was becoming increasingly concrete.

[Not long after.]
