This Ninja Is Obviously Not Strong but Really Hard to Kill

It was not hard to tell from the geographical position that the Land of Tea was the Land of Fire's little brother. Every year, the Land of Tea would pay a lot of protection fees, and all the tasks were also taken care of by Konoha.

Therefore, when the representative of the Land of Tea brought the documents personally written by the Land of Fire and rushed to explain the situation to Konoha, even Sarutobi, as the Hokage, had to pay attention to them.

However, although it was important, Konoha and Kumogakure had already vented their anger. —As for when the war would completely end, no one could say.

In addition, Konoha was severely lacking in manpower, so it was impossible for Sarutobi to bring back the ninjas who were fighting at the border to protect the people of the Land of Tea to transport the tea leaves!

However, he had to give a face to Land of Fire's great name...

Therefore, under the extreme headache, Sarutobi had to appease the representative of the Land of Tea and then issued a task.

I didn't say that I wouldn't help you. Look! I even had issued the mission. But I can't help it if no one accepts it.

After all, although I am the Hokage, I can't force others to accept your mission in this situation where I am short of manpower!

The representatives of the Land of Tea did not notice Sarutobi's small movements at first, but half a month had passed. No matter how much they increased the reward, no one was willing to accept their mission...

At this time, how could they not see that Konoha did not want to care about their trivial matters at all?

This made them very angry!

It must be known that they had paid a lot of protection fees these years!

But then what can they do?

Can they argue with Konoha?

The Land of Tea was located in the south of Land of Fire was actually the Chinese chives raised by Land of Fire, and he could cut a piece whenever he wanted.

After the war between Konoha and Kumogakure ended, the first one to be dealt with would be them, and it would be a matter of minutes!

The awkward geographical location of the Land of Tea even made it impossible for them to even ask for help from several other major countries.

So what else could they do?

They could only endure!

Even if they lost more than half of their economic support, they could only grit their teeth and swallow it down!

But from Konoha's perspective, Sarutobi's choice was actually not wrong at all.

In front of them, there was a fucking war!

Who would send troops to escort you to make money at this time?

Are you crazy!

Can you stop causing trouble?

Anyway, you won't starve to death if you earn less money. Can't you just hold on for a few more years?

This matter can be said to be a completely different position. The Land of Fire is too busy to take care of itself, but the Land of tea needs the help of the Land of Fire to keep the economy from collapsing. Otherwise, so many tea leaves could not be sold. Did they have to let their people eat tea and rice every day? Then there had to be a f*cking boba tea?!

However, it was under such circumstances that Mikawa's squad, who had just become private bodyguards for a rich person, returned to the village.

....

When submitting the task, Aoba suddenly noticed that there were so many more tasks in this period of time.

And many of them are similar tasks...

"Escort a batch of goods to the Land of Earth..."

"Escort a batch of goods to the Land of Hot Water..."

"Escort a batch of goods to the Land..."

The lowest rank of the mission was also given a B-level evaluation, and the string of rewards at the back was even more dazzling!

The more dangerous the place was, the higher the level of the mission, and the reward was far higher than other similar missions.

It made people wonder what kind of goods were being escorted. With these rewards, could they still make money?

The answer was, of course, yes!

Businessmen would not do those unprofitable deals unless it were the last resort.

After reading through these missions, Aoba did not have much interest.

Because this sort of escort mission took too long and was too troublesome. Even if the reward were a lot, it would still depend on where they went!

Take the Land of Hot Water, for example. This place was between the Land of Lightning and the Land of Fire.

Right now, Konoha and Kumogakure had their heads smashed into pieces in the vicinity. Every day, countless people would die. Who would be stupid enough to accept such a dangerous mission?

However, when he saw one of the missions, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"B-level mission. Escort a batch of goods to the Land of Iron. The reward is 800,000 ryo!"

One must know that the reward for a B-level mission was usually between 80,000 to 200,000 ryo. The reward for this mission alone was four times the highest reward for a B-level mission!

Logically speaking, there should be brave men willing to accept such rewards. However, there were very few Jonin who remained in Konoha at this time. Moreover, the Land of Iron was very close to the battlefield between Konoha and Kumogakure. It was no wonder that no one accepted this mission.

However, Aoba was a little tempted.

The reward was one aspect. He mainly wanted to go to the Land of Iron and get himself a good sword.

Because ordinary swords were too fragile in his hands, even when he trained normally, he had to be careful, let alone use them to fight enemies.

Moreover, if he wanted to merge the lightning attribute chakra with [Thunder Breathing], he needed a sword that could conduct chakra well!

Another reason was that although the Land of Iron was very close to the battlefield, it was the common ground. A long time ago, the ninjas of various big countries had agreed not to attack this country, so the Land of Iron actively avoided being involved in these few battles of Ninja World.

Moreover, the Land of Iron and Land of Fire were connected. As long as you don't encounter the enemy's main force, they could still reduce the danger if they quickly return.

But the problem was luck. No one could say for sure.

If he ran into Kumogakure's ninja army head-on, there was no need to talk about it. It was an extravagant hope to be able to save his life and escape.

Unless he could bet on [Bankai] once again...

However, it had only been two months since the last time he used it. There was a 10% chance that it had Emperor Luck.

Therefore, he was a bit conflicted about whether to take this risk or not.

In addition, even if he wanted to accept it, he had to convince Mikawa-sensei, Itachi, and Hayate first.

At this time, Itachi, who noticed his gaze, said calmly, "You want to accept that mission?"

Aoba hesitated for a moment but still nodded, "Don't you think that the current C-level mission is not enough to satisfy our needs?"

"Moreover, we must have outstanding achievements to achieve our own goals. The reason why Lord Minato could become the Hokage is also because he made a big name on the battlefield, killing enemies and making them tremble in fear. The corresponding example is also Senior Kakashi..."

"So although it will be very dangerous, even more dangerous than the situation we encountered last time, I think this is also our chance!"

"If we keep going step by step and wait until the war with Kumogakure is over, it will be difficult for us to make a name for ourselves in peaceful era, and it will be even more difficult to become the Hokage. What do you think?"

Itachi... was silent.

But he had to admit that what Aoba said was very reasonable.
