Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting in the center of the task receiving office, looked at the tasks completed by Class 7 and Class 8 yesterday.

「Yesterday's task was completed very well.」

「The client had nothing to fault and all the work was done to perfection."

Sarutobi Hiruzen realized that the most common tasks such as D were a bit too easy for Team 7.

「It seems that some tasks need to be made more difficult."

Konoha receives many tasks every day.

There are more D-level tasks and C-level tasks, and there are naturally B-level and A-level tasks, but such high-level tasks cannot be carried out by a group of genin. For genin to perform such tasks is like looking for death. There is no difference

「If the seventh and eighth squads are combined, it should be okay to perform a C-level mission of subjugation."

Sarutobi Hiruzen focused more on tasks such as C.

What Classes 7 and 8 accepted yesterday was the most troublesome of the tasks such as D, and it couldn't be completed by two classes in half a day.

But yesterday, Class 7 and Class 8 still took half a day to complete the task.

Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't think that continuing to use D and other tasks can cultivate the character of Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke.

Being able to complete the most troublesome task of planting rice in half a day has proven how solid the physical strength and skills of Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke are.

Not only was he very patient, he didn't hear any complaints, and even the supermarket overfulfilled the task.

It's okay to continue to deal with tasks such as D for a while, but once this happens too much, you may become emotionally uncontrollable.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was looking for a mission suitable for Class 7 and Class 8 among the many C-level missions.

「The crusade against bandits does not involve the participation of ninjas from the enemy country. It is just a simple C-level mission."

Although it is a simple task of defeating bandits, it is not an easy task for a newly promoted genin who has just come out of the ivory tower.

The key is that this task requires blood.

Sarutobi Hiruzen paused for a moment when he looked at this task, and then looked at the client's brief introduction in detail and his simple judgment on the task.

「Well, this is indeed a very suitable task」

「Originally, I wanted to arrange it after Kakashi recovered."

Sarutobi Hiruzen hopes that Hatake Kakashi will teach"The Will of Fire" to Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, and teach them how to face this ninja world in a real ninja battle.

Teach them to cherish, rely on and trust their peers

「a little early」

「That’s okay, it’s like assigning the C and other tasks of Class 8 in advance.」

「Class 7, wait until Kakashi recovers and arrange a C-level mission."

After thinking for a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen decided to arrange a C-level task for Class 7 and Class 8 in advance to let them experience the real ninja world.

「Then arrange this task."

Sarutobi Hiruzen has already decided in his heart that this is the mission.

Umino Iruka, who was recording mission information nearby, also noticed that Hokage was reading the mission book.

It's just that there's nothing strange about this. After all, when Hokage delivers a task, he has to check a lot of detailed information on the task, and he also needs to confirm the general situation of the task based on character information.

「Hokage-sama, you are still as serious and responsible as ever.」

「I can't leave the recording work behind."

Umino Iruka was recording the mission more carefully.

Just while doing the recording work, Umino Iruka suddenly saw the D-level task that Class 7 and Class 8 completed yesterday.

「Uzumaki Naruto……」

Thinking of Team 7, Umino Iruka couldn't help but think of the Uzumaki Naruto who concerned him the most.

「nine-tailed fox……」

「I still can't let go of the death of my father and mother."

Umino Iruka sighed secretly in his heart.

Hatred can never be let go so easily. Even over the years, Umino Iruka has learned that Uzumaki Naruto is just the container of the nine-tailed demon fox.

But so what if you know?

Thirteen years ago, the nine-tailed demon fox was still the monster that almost destroyed Konoha.

It was because of that monster that was raging in Konoha that his parents died under the claws of that monster while protecting him.

That is because he could not let go of that hatred. Even now, Iruka Uzumaki still regards Uzumaki Naruto as the enemy who killed his parents.

However, Umino Iruka knew in his heart that his idea was wrong.

But he couldn't help but think so, because for him, this was just a way for him to find a channel to vent his anger.

「Uzumaki Naruto, you should be more vulnerable, you should be more difficult to accept」

「Why did you accept this identity so easily?」

「He easily accepted the fact that he was a nine-tailed demon fox and did not argue or make any rebuttal."

Umino Iruka still felt strongly unhappy in his heart.

He hoped to see Naruto Uzumaki's vulnerable side, so that he could have a channel to vent his anger.

But Uzumaki Naruto has never shown any sadness since five years ago.

Just face all the words around you very calmly.

This made Umino Iruka feel very unhappy.

He couldn't understand why Uzumaki Naruto could do it suddenly.

He also couldn't understand why Uzumaki Naruto suddenly didn't care about the sounds and gazes around him.

However, every time he saw Uzumaki Naruto like this, Umino Iruka felt very ironic.

It was like a hard punch to cotton.

Since five years ago, Umino Iruka has not known where to vent his anger.

Therefore, he could only sincerely hate Uzumaki Naruto for accepting his identity as the nine-tailed demon fox.

"Lord Hokage."

A sudden voice interrupted Umino Iruka's thoughts.

Umino Iruka raised his head and saw Yuhi Kurenai, the instructor of Class 8, walking into the reception area, and behind Yuhi Kurenai were also followed by Class 7 and A student of Class 8.

In just a moment, Umino Iruka's eyes were locked on Uzumaki Naruto.

The fist hidden under the table couldn't help but clenched tightly, and he still couldn't help but feel that strong feeling. Anger.

In order to hide his anger, Umino Iruka had to lower his head and try to make himself look at the information instead of looking at Uzumaki Naruto's face. Sarutobi Hiruzen did not notice Umino Iruka Ka's mood, or rather, thinking about Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, made him have no time to care about the mood of a chuunin like Umino Iruka. The chunin is considered the backbone of the ninja village.

But the mood of a chunin It's not something that a Hokage needs to care about.

What's more, he is only a lifelong chuunin. Does such a person's emotions require the Hokage to pay attention to at all times?

At least Sarutobi Hiruzen will not care about Umino Iruka's emotions.
