Naruto, aspiring to become a well-known figure in the ninja world

"Yesterday afternoon, at Konoha's Training Ground No. 32, don't say you didn't do it."

"It seems to be true. What's going on?"

"Tsk—how dare you complain, janitor? Once you leave this door, I'll take off your epaulettes and give them to Parker."

Gojo Jieyue muttered to himself and readily admitted what he had done. Rarely did he make any excuses, which made Mito Menyan feel like he was punching cotton.

"Compensate the village for its losses, write a self-reflection report, and suspend me until you have thoroughly repented!"

"I can pay the compensation, and I have plenty of money. As for the report and the reflection, forget it."

Gojo Kegetsu sat on the chair and made a classic inverted triangle pose: "Also, Elder Mitomon, do you think you are Elder Danzo? You still want me to suspend my post and write a self-criticism? Of course, even he can't order me around."

"I only have one leader, and that's the Yondaime-sama!"

"You and I……"

Mizuto Menen's face turned dark, and he pointed his finger at Gojo Jieyue, trembling and unable to speak.

Everyone in Konoha knew that Gojo Kegetsu and the Yondaime had the same cloak. Asking the Yondaime to punish him was even more difficult than asking Hiruzen to severely punish Danzo.

"A training ground costs 10 million taels. With your salary as an elder, where would you get the money to pay for it?!"

"The Gojo family is quite a family. It was left to me by my parents when I immigrated to Konoha."

"Isn't it just a destroyed training ground? I'll pay for two... no, three! Is three for one enough?"

Cash is something outside of your body.

Relying on the royalties from writing about cultural dregs, Gojo Jieyue could earn nearly 10 million taels of cash every month. In addition, the commission from the sales of "Yi Mu" had been lying in the publishing house's account, waiting for Gojo Jieyue to control it at any time.

Now, he really doesn't lack these small things. Among the civil servants in Konoha, Gojo Jieyue is probably the richest one.

"Is this a question of money? Is being rich a big deal? What's your attitude?!"

Knowing that this kind of rhetoric would have no effect on the scoundrel Gojo Jieyue, Mito Kado En turned his gun towards Namikaze Minato and said, "Yondaime, are you really not going to punish Advisor Gojo?"

"If an ordinary person destroys a ninja training ground, he will not only be fined, but also be imprisoned in the police department depending on the severity of the offense. If you can do whatever you want just because you have money, then no villagers will have to abide by Konoha's laws in the future!"

"Step on it and throw two stacks of cash, how about that?"

"That's not the floor for a training match, it's a slap on the face of the Leaf Village, on the face of you, the Yondaime."

Mito Menen's series of words were like the fireball technique, spurting out with a whoosh, leaving Gojo Jieyue stunned.

Has this old guy really been working hard to improve his speaking skills recently? At this rate, he will be taking the postgraduate entrance examination soon.

The relationship between Minato Namikaze and Gojo Kegetsu naturally cannot be sown with just a few words, but as the Hokage, he has the burden of being a "referee" on his shoulders.

Minato believed that as the highest referee, he needed to do the following for disputes within the village: never act on impulse; never miss or misjudge any bad thing; and always judge fairly and beautifully!

Only in this way can everyone be convinced and work together to promote the positive development of the village.

He cleared his throat:

"Ahem, Advisor Gojo, regarding the report that you have been destroying Konoha's No. 32 training ground since yesterday afternoon... What were you and Chunin Might Guy doing in there?"

To be fair, Minato Namikaze did not think that his best friend would destroy the village's property for no reason, and there might be some hidden story behind it.

But this matter...

His best friend had made great achievements in culture and domestic affairs, and he often played a positive role when something happened. But Minato Namikaze really couldn't think of the reason for destroying the training ground.

"Alas... It seems that this matter can no longer be concealed." Gojo Jieyue shook his head in disappointment: "Originally, I wanted to save Kai's child."

"Save the Chunin Might Guy...?"

"As everyone knows, I am just an ordinary Chunin. Even if I wanted to, I don't have the ability to destroy the training ground like that. Even if you are prejudiced against me, you have to admit this, Elder Mitomon."

Mizuto Menen hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly, as if to agree with Gojo Jieyue's words.

For a Chunin, it would be good if he could use a few more powerful ninjutsu. But the destruction of the training ground was obviously caused by a Jonin, and only a Jonin who has mastered destructive ninjutsu could do that.

"In fact, the problem with the venue was all caused by Might Guy. It had nothing to do with me. I was training him, and he couldn't help but destroy the venue."

"I couldn't bear to see him fall into the abyss at such a young age with a debt of tens of millions of taels, so I took the initiative to take the blame for destroying the venue. Isn't this saving him?"

"It was all Might Guy's fault? Do you want to listen to what you are talking about, Advisor Gojo?" Mitomon En questioned, "Might Guy is just a Chunin, and he is still lying in the Konoha Hospital. According to the description of the medical ninja in charge, his elbow is red and swollen as if he was bitten by a black mamba ninja snake."

"Who was still at the training ground yesterday afternoon? Who are you protecting?"

Gojo Jieyue answered with a question: "Elder Mitomon, do you know who Kai's father is?"

"Might Guy's father..." Mitomon Yan thought for a moment: "Might Guy."

"What about Matt Day's life?"

"He was an ordinary Genin who did nothing well, but when Kirigakure invaded, he burst out with amazing fighting power, single-handedly killing four of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, changing the entire situation of the Kirigakure war. He is a hero of Konoha."

As he was talking, Mitomon realized something was wrong and blurted out, "It's the Eight Gates! You mean, Might Guy has trained the Eight Gates to the point where he can strengthen himself to the level of a jonin?"

The Eight Gates of Ninjutsu is a forbidden book recorded in the Book of Sealing. Looking at the entire Konoha Village, Might Guy is probably the only one who has a record of actual combat. Because the users and people with the ability are too rare, few people in the village pay attention to it, including himself.

There were records of Might Guy practicing the Eight Gates when he graduated from the Ninja Academy, but no one had ever witnessed him using the Eight Gates. Over time, this matter was gradually forgotten. Now that it was mentioned again... Might Guy's name entered Mitomon's vision.

There was also a hint of surprise in Minato's eyes.

Has Senior Might Dai's son also mastered the Eight Gates Ninjutsu to a very advanced level?

"How many doors can he open?" Mito Menyan temporarily put aside the gap between himself and Gojo Jieyue and asked urgently.

Might Guy was a Genin who used the Eight Gates Ninja Technique to kill four elite Jonins of the Hidden Mist with ninja swords alone. Now that Might Guy is a certified Chunin of Konoha, what kind of amazing fighting power will he unleash?

For a senior leader like him, he likes to put all the village's combat power on the chessboard and play chess against the senior leaders of other villages from a distance.

In this way...when the Ninja War breaks out again one day, Might Guy can be used as a surprise weapon, and he can instantly detonate and kill the enemy just like his father Might Dai.

As for Might Guy's final outcome, it was not within Mito Kado En's consideration.

"It's a secret."

"Secret? As the elder of Konoha, don't I have the right to know?"

"Right to know?" Gojo Jieyue sneered and replied bluntly, "Let me think about what the elders of Mitomon want to do. They want to train Might Guy as a detonating tag, so that he can detonate himself and kill the most threatening enemy at the same time. After all, once the Eight Gates Ninjutsu is exposed, the enemy will remember it and become defensive."

"That's what you think, right, Elder Mitomon."

"So what?"

Mitomon En showed no shame on his face: "A worthy death is our destiny as a ninja, and it is also an important manifestation of the spirit of the will of fire. Sacrifice yourself as nutrients for new branches and leaves."

"As a user of the Eight Gates, the greatest way to use it is to appear as a surprise soldier. If he can survive, it is naturally his ability. If he cannot survive, it is his fate."

The ideas of the older generation of ninjas have always been very stubborn.

For the sake of the village, he could even wipe out his family, almost to the point of extinction. For the sake of the collective interests of the village, he could sacrifice any ninja at any time, not to mention a civilian like Might Guy.

"You are right, but Might Guy has been assigned to the Guards. From now on, he will only be under the jurisdiction of me, Gojo Jieyue. And as a member of the Guards, I will apply for an exclusive subsidy for him."

Akai's life is hard.

Ninjas who practice physical arts often face various injuries that cannot be cured by ordinary medical means. Especially for those who practice the Eight Gates Ninja, like Akai, every time they open the Eight Gates Ninja, it is like burying a nail in the body, and the pain is unbearable.

Of course, there are solutions to the problem of physical training for ninjas.

The muscle supplements and secret medicines from Ichiraku Ninja Tool Shop, the advanced medical ninjutsu from Konoha Hospital, and the ice shield therapy that may be developed with the addition of "White"...

These all cost money!

Akai, a body enthusiast who walks around the village doing handstands and thousands of push-ups every day, simply cannot strike a balance between earning money from missions and practicing physical training.

Gojo Kegetsu is a kind-hearted person, and the elbow that Akagi received was not in vain. Gojo Kegetsu decided to do something for this "ordinary person" who is theoretically the second strongest person in Konoha's future.

"What the hell? Guards? Under your jurisdiction? The Shadow Guards are only under the jurisdiction of the Hokage, don't you understand? No matter what, you can't break the rules."

Mizuto Menen was stunned. In theory, in Konoha, only the Hokage could have a guard.

The composition of the Guards is even purer than that of the Anbu. The Anbu members are also divided into factions. Until now, there are still some Anbu who are subordinate to and obey Hiruzen, and Hiruzen's is in turn Danzo's.

When the Hokage disappeared, the village's top brass still had the power to command the Anbu, and they could exclude Gojo Kegetsu even by a show of hands vote.

But the Shadow Guard is different.

It is equivalent to receiving a public salary and only obeying the orders of the Hokage. If the Hokage is missing, they will be free to act, and all actions are aimed at protecting the Hokage. No one in Konoha has the right to make decisions about the Shadow Guard.

If Might Guy is a civilian ninja, Mizuto Kado En can just pass on the order as an elder. If he is a member of the Anbu, Mizuto Kado En can also use a joint letter signed by several elders to tie up Might Guy. But if Might Guy is a member of the Shadow Guard... it is not in compliance with the procedure.

As the elder, Mizuto Menen knows the law best.

"Yondaime, what's going on? As I recall, the new Shadow Guard members haven't been announced yet."

"cough……"

Namikaze Minato explained cheekily: "It's not the Shadow Guard, but the Advisor Guard affiliated with Advisor Gojo."

"Nanda fell?!"

"How come we, as elders, were unaware of this? And how can a consultant have his own guard? This is equivalent to having his own private armed forces in the village, which is absolutely not allowed!"

"Because I am weak, Elder Mitomon."

Gojo Jieyue rested his head on his head and explained slowly, "For Kirigakure's free operation, I must rush to the front line to command. I am a Chunin and I don't have the ability to protect myself. If I die on the way to the front line, wouldn't Kirigakure's free operation be declared a failure?"

"People from other villages will know that the highest-ranking commander of Konoha who died in this operation was the Hokage's advisor. If this gets out, how will Konoha save its reputation?"

"That won't work! You can just issue a mission to summon ninjas to escort you, or dispatch Anbu..."

"If the mission is announced, it will be seen as the Konoha advisor abusing his power to order ordinary ninjas around in the village, causing conflicts. Sending ANBU into other villages' territory without the approval of other villages is undoubtedly a declaration of war, and Konoha will face the risk of war."

Mitomon Yan was furious: "Who on earth would spread the news? I think you just want to set up your own private army under a false pretext!"

"I'll spread it!"

Volume 85: You can’t tell the difference, you really can’t tell the difference

"He allowed his men to form his own private guard, which included Uchiha clan brats..."

"Yondaime, you're going to regret this!"

Bang-!

In the end, Mito Kado En slammed the door and left angrily. Before leaving, one could still hear him constantly saying harsh words like "Shusho Danzo should return to the village as soon as possible" and "Report this to Hiruzen".

Namikaze Minato was full of helplessness, he stroked his forehead and shook his head: "Jieyue-kun, why do you always have trouble with Elder Mitomon? Every time we meet, he gets really mad at me."

"Gentlemen are harmonious but different, while villains are the same but not harmonious~" Gojo Jieyue said nonchalantly: "Besides, I have been very restrained. Otherwise, the three elders might have fought each other."

"Fight...? Can you tell me how to do it?"

"Oh, I call this plan 'Two Soldier's Food Pills to Kill Three Elders', but considering these guys' shamelessness, it may not have any effect. I'll save it for later and throw it to whichever village poses the greater threat."

"If Jie Yue-jun doesn't want to say it, forget it."

"But...what happened to Akai? Were the marks on the training ground really made by him?"

"Of course. I've tested it myself, and Akai can already drive to Jingmen."

"Jingmen..."

The record about the Eight Gates in the Book of Seals appeared in Minato Namikaze's mind: "In that case, Kai is really a genius in practicing Taijutsu."

"If he continues to concentrate on training for another two years, I'm afraid even I will have a hard time reacting to his speed during the battle."

Minato's nerve reaction speed is also one of the best in the entire ninja world. What limits Flying Thunder God is never the technique itself, but the reaction speed of the user.

Coming from Minato's mouth, these words were considered a high recognition of Might Guy.

"In that case, Jieyue-kun, please fill out an application form for the guard subsidy. I will give the highest subsidy to Chunin Might Guy."

"Probably... a subsidy of 200,000 taels a month?"

"There are three more." Gojo Jieyue pointed out that there are still three Uchiha guys in the advisory guard.

Namikaze Minato's face was stern: "Those Uchiha kids... the oldest is only eight years old. Anyway, this is too ridiculous. I can't agree to it."

"It's so boring."

Gojo Jieyue stretched lazily: "According to the time, it's almost time for Yagura to be admitted to the hospital. Should we go and welcome him?"

Minato's expression slowed down, "Let's go."
