Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 229: Adding Strength to Naruto's First Mission

Hearing the pleasant voice from the system in his mind, Qianhe smiled even more brightly.

This kid is simple-minded. He doesn't even need to be targeted. Just flirting with Sakura Haruno triggers a surge of negative emotions.

Chiga glanced at Naruto Uzumaki, who was on the verge of going berserk, and Sasuke Uchiha, who looked completely indifferent, and then continued to provoke him.

"Miss Sakura, I've just arrived in Konoha and need a guide to show me around the village. I wonder if Miss Sakura could be that guide?"

Sakura Haruno nodded without hesitation: "No problem!"

[Negative emotions from Naruto Uzumaki, emotion value +80!]

"That's wonderful! To express my gratitude, would you mind inviting Ms. Sakura to dinner tonight?"

"Mr. Chiga is too kind!"

"It's a candlelight dinner!"

"Huh? Isn't that too fast!"

[Naruto's defenses have been breached, mood points +100!]

[Negative emotion from Uchiha Sasuke, Emotion Value +50! First time receiving negative emotion from Uchiha Sasuke, Sharingan EXP reward +3000!]

This time, not only Naruto Uzumaki couldn't stand it anymore, but even Sasuke Uchiha couldn't stand it anymore.

This kid is clearly here to cause trouble.

She actually flirted with my teammate right in front of me!

They completely disregarded me!

To defend my position as the most handsome man in Konoha, I have to teach this guy a lesson!

Just as Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha were exchanging glances, preparing to teach this ungrateful boy a lesson,

[A moment of weakness from Sakura Haruno, mood value +101!]

[A moment of weakness from Sakura Haruno, mood value +101!]

Well, the first reward wasn't great, but this girl's negative emotions...

This was the first time he had ever obtained 101 emotion points from a broken ninja. Was this beyond the limit?

Tsk tsk, Qianhe guesses this girl will hold a grudge against him for the rest of her life.

"."

What exactly does this boy want to do?

Did they just want to provoke Naruto and his two companions into going berserk?

Although Kakashi Hatake didn't understand, seeing the increasingly dangerous looks in Naruto and the other two's eyes, he still stood in front of Chiga.

He waved to Naruto and the other two, saying, "Alright, alright, Chiga's here to settle in Konoha, you can't scare him away!"

"Also, Chiga's teacher is a hero of Konoha Village, so the three of you shouldn't bully him!"

Although what Chiga said to him in front of the memorial monument was debatable, Kakashi Hatake didn't want to see Naruto and his two friends cause trouble for outsiders visiting the village, as it would damage Konoha's image.

Moreover, the boy in front of me looks like an ordinary boy, with this kind of personality.

He realized that Chiga was just playing with his three disciples by talking to Sakura.

What a terrible personality!

With Kakashi Hatake's reassurance, Sakura Haruno calmed down, but gave Chiga a cold laugh.

settle down?

Hmph, I, Sakura-sama, will remember you!

The mountains are high and the rivers are long; there will be plenty of opportunities to seek revenge on you.

"Young man, your ramen is here!"

Just then, Chiga's ramen was ready.

The middle-aged man, Ichiraku, placed a bowl of ramen in front of Chika.

Chiga picked up her chopsticks, took a bite, and her eyes lit up immediately. She exclaimed, "Uncle Ichiraku, your ramen tastes much better now!"

In Chiga's world, Ichiraku Ramen had only been open for a short time, although the taste was not bad.

However, it is still inferior to later generations.

"Oh, another regular customer! Looks like you really enjoy ramen, young man!"

Upon hearing this, Uncle Yile's narrowed eyes flashed with surprise.

"This brings me to my teacher. She loves ramen and often brings me here to eat it. I've grown to love it over time."

Chiga shrugged and explained.

"Haha, young man, you just arrived in Konoha and you've already come to try my ramen. For that alone, this bowl of ramen is on me!"

Uncle Yi Le said generously.

"Hmph, I've been eating this since I was a child, how come I haven't noticed any change in taste!"

Hearing the conversation between Uncle Ichiraku and Chiga, Naruto Uzumaki recalled for a moment and felt that the taste of ramen hadn't changed much over the years.

However, Naruto suddenly lessened his hostility towards Chiga's love of ramen.

Chiga seemed to have noticed Naruto's attitude and smiled inexplicably.

It seems this guy has fully inherited Kushina's capricious nature!

Chiga sighed inwardly, thinking, "Don't be fooled by Naruto's blond hair and think that the Uzumaki clan's bloodline has been suppressed by Minato Namikaze."

However, her personality is a perfect inheritance from Kushina-sensei.

The two were evenly matched, each having their own strengths and weaknesses.

"Did you guys just graduate from the ninja academy?"

Although it infuriated the three of them, Chiga still asked a question, which was a way of easing tensions.

After all, collecting emotion points is a long-term process. You can't always be a sarcastic person. You need to improve your image in their eyes from time to time so that you can collect emotion points better in the future.

This can be considered as an experience summarized by Chiga.

Sakura Haruno and Sasuke Uchiha did not want to answer Chiga's question.

"Yes, we've already graduated from the Ninja Academy. If you need anything, feel free to come to us!"

"I'll make sure it looks beautiful for you!"

Naruto patted his chest and said, then suddenly remembered that Chika came from abroad, and asked curiously, "Chika, which country are you from?"

"The Land of Rain, a small country."

Chiga said something simple.

"The Land of Rain!"

Upon hearing this, Naruto squinted and stroked his chin, racking his brains for a long time but still couldn't recall the exact location of the Land of Rain.

After all, based on the knowledge in his mind, he probably knew that there was a Land of Fire and a Hidden Leaf Village in the ninja world.

Then Naruto Uzumaki said, "Never mind, whenever you need to go back to the Land of Rain, we can protect you and go with you!"

Because of his status as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Naruto Uzumaki has never left Konoha Village since he was a child.

So I'm also very curious about the outside world.

"Ha, the Land of Rain is dangerous! I don't want to go back."

"And I also advise you not to go."

Chiga kindly reminded him that if Naruto went to the Land of Rain at this time, it would be no different from sending the Nine-Tails away.

"Tch, I'm an outstanding graduate of Konoha Village. My strength isn't something ordinary guys can handle!"

"Chiga, let me tell you, back in the Ninja Academy, I was capable of taking on seven opponents at once!"

"Even the teachers at the Ninja Academy are no match for me!"

Upon hearing this, Chiga smiled but remained silent.

"Naruto, hurry up and eat, we still have a mission to do after you finish!"

Kakashi Hatake couldn't stand it anymore and quickly interrupted Naruto Uzumaki's boasting.

The four of them quickly finished their ramen and left Ichiraku Ramen.

With Kakashi Hatake and his companions gone, Chiga didn't linger at Ichiraku Ramen.

Instead of searching for the other twelve members to collect emotion points, he started looking for rental information.

After all, he will likely be traveling back and forth between this world and his own world in the future, so he still needs a place to stay in this world.

As for why not just buy a house directly.

Although Chiga felt that she would be traveling between two worlds, she would definitely prioritize her own world.

If something happens in his own world and he misses the moment when Pain wipes out the village, resulting in his house being destroyed, who can he complain to?

By the time Chiga had rented a house and bought all the necessities, it was already afternoon.

"Gah~"

Just then, a crow flew back from the sky.

Although he had said goodbye to Naruto and his friends, he still kept a close watch on them with his crow feathers, keeping track of their movements.

"Giggle~"

After whispering a few words to Chiga, Chiga thought for a moment and immediately walked towards the gates of Konoha.

When he arrived, he saw Naruto and his three companions surrounding an old man and heading towards the Land of Waves.

This familiar opening caught Chiga's eye and sparked a bit of interest.

This is Naruto Uzumaki's first mission outside the country: to escort bridge-building experts back to the Land of Waves.

Along the way, they will encounter Zabuza Momochi and Haku, two rogue ninjas from Kirigakure sent by the black marketeer Gato.

"Kushina-sensei's son, a member of the same clan, and an old friend—it seems I'll have to become a babysitter for a while."

"But just Zabuza and Haku seems too easy!"

"And has Kakashi's vigilance really gotten that bad lately? He can't even detect this kind of surveillance!"

Watching Naruto Uzumaki's retreating figure, Chika smiled and muttered to herself before disappearing from the spot.

Somewhere in the forest near the entrance to Konoha Village, two figures stood close together, watching Tazuna leave and preparing to follow him.

These two men are called the Demon Brothers, and they are Zabuza's subordinates.

However, at that moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

What?!

The ghost brothers were startled. Before they could react, a pair of scarlet eyes appeared in their line of sight.

With ease, Chiga subdued the two demon brothers and extracted Zabuza Momochi's exact location from them.

Chiga then released the two, erased their memories of meeting him, and rushed to Zabuza Momochi's location.

The two demon brothers are only Chunin, and with Kakashi Hatake around, there shouldn't be any major problems.

In the Land of Waves, on the outskirts of a coastal town, in a building resembling a spinning top.

"Zabuza-san, I never imagined your subordinates would be so useless. You're utterly disappointing!"

"Cardo said coldly, with a hint of anger in his voice. A sinister glint flashed in his eyes, hidden behind his black sunglasses."

Opposite him, a tall figure leaned back on the sofa.

It was Zabuza Momochi, the Hidden Mist ninja who defected after failing to assassinate the Fourth Mizukage.

Zabuza listened to Gato's words without expression, and simply replied coldly.

"Enough with the nonsense. Since I've taken your money, I'll naturally take care of your business!"

"Hmph, now that Brother Ghost has failed, the other side will definitely be more vigilant, and their next attack might be even more troublesome! Do you really have the ability to kill them? Don't let that happen..."

Before Kado could finish speaking, a sharp and cold light flashed in the dim space and stopped in front of him instantly.

It was a huge and heavy sword, its hilt firmly gripped by Zabuza. He exuded an almost suffocating killing intent as he coldly said:

"Do you think I'm one of those two pieces of trash?! I am Zabuza Momochi, the Demon King of Kirigakure!"

Although Gato was terrified by Zabuza's actions, he still said, unsatisfied, "I hope you'll have the same spirit when facing those Konoha ninja!"

After saying that, he stormed off, and the wandering samurai following behind Kado also left.

"Mr. Zabuza?"

White's figure appeared in the room as Kado left.

"The Demon Brothers were dealt with so quickly; it seems there must be a Jonin among the Konoha ninja!"

"Hmph, it seems that old man Tazuna lied to Konoha about the mission, otherwise he wouldn't have sent a ninja of this caliber."

Zabuza gave a cold laugh: "That old guy isn't stupid!"

"So, shall we continue the mission?"

Haku continued to ask, as rogue ninjas from Kirigakure, the two were often hunted by Kirigakure's pursuit forces, so they didn't want to provoke Konoha's ninjas at this time.

"Go? Why wouldn't I go? It's just one Jonin with a few brats at most. Do you think I'd be afraid?"

Zabuza lowered his head, concealing his eyes in darkness.

"So, shall we proceed according to the previous plan?"

Haku nodded. Since Zabuza had made his decision, he only needed to do his job well and would never object to Zabuza's decision.

Zabuza felt a strange sense of unease, a feeling that something was about to happen. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Alright, safety first, no matter what!"

He shouldered the executioner's blade, his chill intensifying. "I hope this will give me some enjoyment. It's been a long time since I've killed a Konoha ninja!"

As he spoke, Zabuza suddenly frowned, sensing a faint smell of blood.

"Damn it, enemy attack!"

Zabuza's expression changed drastically. He used his Executioner's Blade to smash down the wooden door and walked out of the house.

Just then, they saw a figure holding a long samurai sword, pulling it out of Kado's heart.

"Who are you?"

Zabuza asked solemnly.

Kado was gone for only a minute, but in that short time, the enemy managed to take care of everything.

Moreover, if he hadn't smelled the blood, he wouldn't have known that Kado and those dozen or so wandering samurai had died right at his doorstep.

It's easy to imagine that the person who came must be quite capable.

"Hello, nice to meet you all. You can call me Phantom Crow!"

Chika wiped the Gale in her hand and chuckled softly.
