Konoha's task master

In the middle of the night, Yakumo returned to the room from the roof, while Hatake Sakumo stayed downstairs to rest, leaving the safety to his shadow clone.

The two chatted a lot on the rooftop, ranging from trivial matters to the secrets of the ninja world that Yakumo didn't know. It was obvious that Hatake Sakumo really regarded Yakumo as a junior and was supporting him.

The two discussed and decided that Yeyue Tenxin's body still belongs to Yakumo, but out of the goal of keeping a low profile and protecting themselves, they unified their external stance...

The person who killed Yeyue Tianxin was...White Fang!

Yakumo has no ambition to conquer the world. He just wants to be a transparent person in Konoha and strive for a few years...

Kill Otsutsuki Momoshiki with one knife.

By the way, he also met Hatake Sakumo who was responsible for accurately finding the two of them, that is, his psychic beast...

——Silver Wolf.

It was a large husky about two meters long, with an extremely terrifying sense of smell and endurance, as well as thick fur, and a great feel... It never broke down.

The only drawback is that Huskies will bite madly when called.

Of course, it is easy to coax at this time, and all you need to do is promise a big bone stick to calm its irritable mood.

Yakumo sat beside the bed, holding a black stone in his hand. A few flashes of colorful luster occasionally flashed through it, proving its extraordinary repercussions, but upon closer inspection, it seemed that it was not much different from coal.

This is the essence stone that Yakumo just bought with overdraft. Although it is an unattractive black ore, it has an unmatched hardness and is very simple to use.

Pick up the essence stone and press it on the blade of the devil's sword. The hard black stone melts like a liquid into a black liquid, occasionally reflecting colorful luster.

The black liquid circulated around Fu Mo, and then gradually seeped into the blade one by one, and the blade gradually emitted a shimmering light.

After a few minutes, the extraction is complete.

Yakumo felt that the Fumo in his hand did not seem to have changed. He followed the same method and used the second, third, and fourth stones. After more than ten minutes, all five essence stones were used.

This time Yakumo could easily feel the change when he wielded the demon, a slight injection of chakra, and the blade instantly turned silver.

Under the light, the cold air is chilly and chilling. Thousands of silver lights are born with the wave of the hand, just like the Milky Way falling from the sky.

Yakumo's hands felt itchy for a moment, and he stood up suddenly and was about to practice sword dancing in the room. After a few moments, the pain in his chest began to double crazily. Yakumo's expression was distorted and he silently put away the demon.

〖Fuhu brings blessings〗〖Weapon interface〗

After the Demon Subduing increased, the mini-game once again spawned a new interface, and Yakumo waved his hand to open it.

〖Conquer the Demon〗

Weapon type: Long knife (75.3 cm)

Increase: 102% "Increase"

Enchantment: None

Originally, the increase rate of subduing demons should be 97%, which means that there is only 3% loss when conducting chakra, which can be regarded as the best among chakra weapons.

The next day, Yakumo wrapped a bandage and endured the burning pain in his chest, completing his daily five-kilometer run.

After running...he was given a lesson by Reiko Aoyama.

That afternoon, Reiko Aoyama treated him for the second time. The pain in his chest had almost disappeared, leaving only the stabbing pain in his arms.

In fact, the arms were the most seriously injured parts of Yakumo's body. After being stabbed into the chest, Yeyue Tenxin knew that he would die.

In a few seconds, he injected all the chakra in his body into Yakumo's arms, causing extremely severe burns and cell necrosis. He did this with the intention of destroying Yakumo's knife-wielding hands and destroying Kumogakure Village.

Fortunately, Reiko Aoyama is very skilled in medical ninjutsu for this formidable enemy.

This experience made him even more convinced that...learning medical ninjutsu was an extremely wise decision.

An accident encountered at any time may lead to lifelong disability. At this time, mastering the ultimate medical ability becomes a very direct insurance.

That afternoon, Yakumo and Aoyama Reiko left Saikawa Castle at an extremely slow speed and set off towards Konoha Hidden Village.

Although White Fang did not show up, he was protecting him secretly.

Early the next morning, Reiko Aoyama treated Yakumo for the third time. All the bandages on his upper body had been removed, and only his arms still needed time to heal.

The speed of their return gradually increased, and that night they stayed at a hotel in a city near Konoha Hidden Village.

Friday, November 12th.

In the early morning, the two of them entered Konoha Hidden Village.

"I'm finally back..." Yakumo sighed. The moment he stepped into Konoha, a mission completion interface popped up in front of him.

"You go home and have a rest."

Aoyama Reiko spoke. According to the regulations, she needed to go to the Third Hokage first to hand in the mission report and wait for the Third Hokage to inquire about the mission details.

"It's a pity... the purple fire was broken." Yakumo looked a little sad. It was the apprenticeship gift given to him by Reiko Aoyama, and it was also a symbol of the bond between the two.

On the way back, the two of them had taken out the remaining fragments of purple fire from Yeyue Tianxin's body.

But Yakumo noticed the flash of sadness that Aoyama Reiko felt when she saw the purple fire fragments.

"It's great that we can come back safely." Reiko Aoyama comforted Yakumo as she touched her head.

"That's right...this is excellent..."

On the other hand, inside the Hokage's office.

Hatake Sakumo was reporting the specific details of this mission to the Third Hokage, but this detail was confirmed after the three people discussed it.

Hatake Sakumo was also a little dissatisfied with the Third Hokage's behavior of treating Aoyama Reiko and Yakumo as abandoned children.

There is no problem that ninjas take complete tasks as their primary responsibility, but Yakumo is still a child... Even if he is strong, he is still a child. Sacrificing the life of a child in exchange for benefits makes Hatake Sakumo disagree.

In the past few days when Yakumo and several people disappeared, Yunyin Village was completely in chaos. Dozens of ninja teams were sent out continuously to go deep into the Kingdom of Moon and the Kingdom of Yu to find the whereabouts of Ye Yue Tenxin...

The result is that no one can be seen alive, and no body can be seen dead.

"Yeyue Tianxin...was killed by you?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen rubbed his forehead.

If it were wartime, Hatake Sakumoge's move would undoubtedly greatly increase Konoha's momentum, but now it's a time of peace... we don't need heroes now!

Because heroes influence rule!

Especially now... Yeyue Tianxin's death is likely to be the trigger for breaking the peace treaty.

Sarutobi Hiruzen came from the Warring States Period... experienced World War I... and after World War II, he already hated or feared war in his heart.

But he couldn't blame Hatake Sakumo, and even wanted to give him a small reward. Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered for a moment.

"White Fang...you have done a good job. How about rewarding you with the qualification to view the Sealed Book?"

"Thank you, Hokage-sama, I don't need the Book of Sealing. I always firmly believe that my sword skills are no worse than any ninjutsu."

Hatake Sakumo's voice was calm, he paused for a few seconds and then continued.

"The ANBU still lacks one person. The medical jounin is responsible for logistics. I hope to transfer Aoyama Ninja to the ANBU as a non-staff member."

"This is feasible, please step back."

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, and after Hatake Sakumo left, his eyes became a little uncertain.

"What does this mean... to win people's hearts?"
