Chapter 169 The Offensive Is Reversed! (Additional Update for the Helmsman, Far East Apple!)

As the saying goes, in troubled times heroes emerge!

Although war will bring indelible pain to many people, it can also create a large number of heroes!

Just like the former White Fang of Konoha, the Sannin, the golden flash...

For ninjas, there's no better way to stand out than in war!

This is indeed what Qingyu is saying, because he knows clearly that this is the last war between Konoha and Kumogakure, and it will only last until the 51st year of Konoha, that is, next year. Kumogakure will not be reconciled to Konoha. Sign a peace treaty.

And after this ninja world war is finally over, what will follow will be a period of extremely peaceful time, and all major ninja villages are seizing the time to recuperate.

Therefore, the time left for him and Itachi may be less than a year at all costs.

If you miss this opportunity, it will definitely be difficult to increase your reputation in peacetime!

Because there are not so many opportunities for you!

So in fact, even if he didn't see the mission to the Iron Country today, Qingyu was still thinking about how to talk about it.

Who made him so ambitious that he wanted to become the Fifth Hokage!

Regardless of whether he could succeed in the end, he didn't want to give up this opportunity.

Seeing the determination in Qingyu's eyes, Itachi seemed to have been convinced by him.

"You and I both know how cruel war is..." Itachi said this because he had witnessed the horror of war when he was 4 years old, and Qingyu lost everything because of this war.

"Of course, it is precisely because of this that we have to get involved and wait until the day when we realize our respective ideals to end it completely!"

Itachi nodded, he just needed to know that Qingyu didn't just say that because his head was hot.

"I have no objection. It just so happens that we can use this task to determine whether we are ready. But before that, you should first think about how to persuade Teacher Mikawa to agree to your crazy idea."

Qingyu suddenly felt a headache. Although Mikawa was indeed a good teacher, he was also really stubborn in some aspects.

It's really a problem to get him to agree to take on such a dangerous mission!

But you still have to give it a try to find out.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

As he expected, when he asked Teacher Mikawa to take on the task, Mikawa refused without even thinking about it.

Isn't it enough to have the same dangerous situation last time?

Want to do it again?

No, absolutely not!

However, at the insistence of Aoba and Itachi, Moonlight Hayate was the first to switch sides.

In his words, anyway, I relied on Qingyu to save my life. I don’t know how long I can live, so I might as well go crazy with everyone!

If he could die on the battlefield, it would be the best destination for a ninja.

Well, anyway, compared to catching someone else's adulterer or being a bodyguard for a rich man, he thinks this is the task that a real man should take on!

It can be seen how much resentment Moonlight Hayate has accumulated in her heart...

crazy!

All crazy!

Mikawa was so angry that he really wanted to point at their noses and scold them.

But this doesn't solve the problem at all.

Especially Qing Yu, this guy has a very serious idea. If he goes behind his back and leads people to the border battlefield, that would be desperate!

So Mikawa also calmed down.

Rather than being backstabbed by these little brats, it's better to take the initiative and at least take the initiative in your own hands.

After all, as the leader of the team, his main role is to protect them.

So after finding no explanation, he chose to throw this hot potato to Lord Hiruzen.

If Hiruzen-sama as Hokage could agree, then he would have nothing to say.

As a result, Mikawa didn't even eat any food, and went directly to the Hokage Building with this mission.

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi was currently smiling and comforting the representative of the Kingdom of Tea.

This scene has been happening almost every day recently, which makes him very annoyed.

But there was no other way. For the sake of the name of the Fire Country, he could only hope to drag these people away.

"Hokage-sama, is it true that such a huge Konoha can't allocate even a few manpower? Our demands are not high, at least you have to help us solve our urgent needs!"

The representatives of the Kingdom of Tea had blisters on their lips. They had no choice but to suffer heavy losses from a ninja war.

It was hard to wait until it was almost over, but before a few good days had passed, Konoha and Kumogakure started fighting again!

And after fighting for more than a year, we are still at a stalemate. This is endless! ?

If it weren't for the fact that land transportation couldn't get around the natural barrier of the Land of Fire, they would really want to join other dads.

This is too bullying!

That's not what you said when you collected the protection fee!

Sarutobi smiled bitterly. He also knew that what he did was a bit unreasonable, but compared to the threat of Kumogakure, the country of tea was nothing!

At worst, after this war is over, when you send out missions in the future, I will give you a 92% discount on the remuneration, okay!

What?

disagree?

Okay then, you go find other ninja villages to send out missions.

If you, the Country of Tea, can bypass our Country of Fire, I will give you my head!

boom!

"You Konoha are really bullying others!" The representative of the Kingdom of Tea slammed the table hard, trembling with anger.

However, Sarutobi still had that same smile on his face, "Don't be angry, come on, have a sip of tea. This is the special variety that your country of tea provides to Konoha every year, and I'm usually reluctant to drink it."

"Don't drink? You can't solve the problem if you don't drink. Maybe after drinking, someone will take over the task."

"Don't worry, I am a great Hokage and I can still deceive you."

"Isn't this right? It would be nice for everyone to have a cup of tea and chat in peace."

"Huh? You are going back to China tomorrow? That's really...ahem, what a pity. Drink tea, drink tea. I will practice it for you tomorrow, and then prepare some local specialties. Remember to take it back. Fire China and the country of tea have been friendly for generations, and these are what we should do."

However, just as the representative of the Country of Tea was preparing to leave with a cold face, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Come in."

"Since Hokage-sama is busy with business, we will take a step forward." The representative of the Kingdom of Tea suppressed his anger and prepared to take people away.

Sarutobi didn't even stay and seemed relieved.

"Master Hiruzen, our Mikawa class wants to take on the B-level mission of escorting cargo to the Iron Kingdom..."

Um? ? ?

The representative of the Country of Tea who had already reached the door was stunned for a moment, and then he didn't care about anything else and just came back with his people.

"What did you say? You want to take this task? Great! I agree!"

"By the way, I am the one who issued this mission. Hokage-sama, what do you say now? You won't allow them to accept this mission, right?"

In an instant, the offensive was reversed!
