Chapter 16 - Chapter 15: Do You Have a Father?

The shock of learning Naruto's identity instantly diluted Iruka's inner grief.

Even the intoxicated feeling after drinking disappeared.

Iruka was shocked, "Fourth Hokage... Lord!"

"Yes." Sato Akira nodded, "Didn't expect it?"

"Indeed."

Iruka smiled bitterly. He really didn't expect that the offspring of the Fourth Hokage was the boy called the fox demon in the village.

So much so that Iruka also had some doubts about the Third Hokage.

Iruka is not stupid.

"Then, I would like to invite you to educate the son of the Fourth Hokage. Are you willing?"

"Yes."

Iruka did not hesitate at all this time.

The descendants of heroes are worthy of respect at all times.

Sato Akira also smiled slightly.

"For this mission, I will rate it as B-level and the reward is 100,000. Don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly."

"100,000?"

Iruka was a little confused.

You know, even if he goes on a mission normally, the reward is only a few thousand.

He needs to complete a hundred missions without eating or drinking to save up the 100,000 mission reward.

"Isn't this a bit too much?"

Ninjas are naturally paid according to the tasks.

The reward for D-level tasks is 500 to 2,000 ryō.

The reward for C-level tasks is 2,000 to 10,000 ryō.

The reward for B-level tasks is 10,000 to 100,000 ryō.

The reward for A-level tasks is 100,000 to 1 million ryō.

Of course, they can't take higher-level tasks.

Now, the task reward that Sato Akira gave Iruka is undoubtedly the highest reward for B-level tasks.

This is too important for Iruka, who is short of money.

"Not much." Sato Akira smiled.

"As long as you can treat Naruto well, I am willing to pay as much as possible."

The main thing is that Minato Namikaze is really not a good teacher!

"I will definitely treat Naruto well!" Iruka promised.

Sato Akira smiled.

He was not worried about Iruka.

After telling Iruka the address, Sato Akira left here and went to the Hokage's office.

The transfer of ninjas needs to be approved by the Hokage, especially now that this is a task issued by Sato Akira.

...

Hokage Building.

In the office.

Sarutobi looked at the pile of documents on the table. Although his eyes were tired, there was a hint of enjoyment in his tiredness.

Power always makes people addicted to it.

After a while.

There was a knock on the door. Sarutobi stretched his stiff neck and called to come in.

The door was opened and Sato Akira walked in.

Surprise flashed in Sarutobi's eyes.

"Sato Akira, you came to see me, is there something?"

Sato Akira nodded.

"Naruto is already four years old, and it stands to reason that he will be of school age next year. The ninja school is not like home, where you will face all kinds of people. I am afraid that Naruto will be bullied, so I need to find someone to teach him."

Sarutobi nodded to show his understanding.

He asked: "Then you came to me, do you want me to arrange a teacher for you?"

Sarutobi looked embarrassed, "I do want to help, after all, Naruto is Minato's child, and I should help. But, the current situation in the village really doesn't have any manpower."

Sato Akira sneered in his heart.

Not to mention that many people in the Anbu and Root were idle at this time, even Kakashi had just finished his mission and was resting at home.

Sarutobi's inability to do anything was just an excuse.

He was always hypocritical and didn't say it clearly.

"Don't worry about it, Lord Third Hokage." Sato Akira said.

"I have already chosen the teacher. This time I came to see Lord Third Hokage just to register for the mission."

"Have you found it?" The Third Hokage suddenly frowned.

Sarutobi has repeatedly confirmed every person that the Jinchūriki approached.

People who don't get his approval will never approach Naruto.

Sato Akira nodded and didn't hide it.

"His name is Umino Iruka, and he is a Chunin. Is there something wrong with that, Lord Third?"

Sarutobi thought carefully and remembered that Iruka was just an ordinary Chunin, without any special identity.

He smiled, "Of course not, I trust you, just like I trusted Minato back then."

The Third Hokage smiled kindly.

If Sato Akira didn't know his face, he would be very moved.

But unfortunately, Sato Akira knew the Third Hokage too well.

A Hokage who was full of the will of fire, a person who had not shown up much in several ninja wars, was called the strongest Hokage.

He allowed Danzo to attack Konoha's White Fang and the Senju clan, but he seemed to have not heard of it.

All he did was to consolidate the power in his hands.

However, when the village was really in danger, he was able to stand up and sacrifice himself.

From this point of view, his so-called will of fire was indeed implemented.

So the Third Hokage is undoubtedly a very contradictory person.

However, this has nothing to do with Sato Akira.

In his eyes, there is only Naruto.

I hope the Third Hokage will not go too far, otherwise, Sato Akira doesn't mind beheading him with the sword.

"Then, thank you, Lord Third Hokage."

Sato Akira smiled and turned around.

"By the way, I define the mission as B-level, and the reward is 100,000 ryō."

After saying this, he had already left, leaving only the shocked Third Hokage.

100,000 ryō!

So rich!

The reaction of the Third Hokage was already expected by Sato Akira. After the last war and the attack of the Hidden Cloud Village, Konoha was extremely poor.

It has been a long time since I saw a mission of 100,000 ryō.

And now...

To be honest, the Third Hokage suddenly envied Iruka, envied this ordinary Chunin.

He even thought that if he had been better to Naruto, would he be able to embezzle the money in Sato Akira's hands?

Sato Akira is not short of money, he has already shown it. During the three years away from home, he did more than just kill people.

What's the point of killing people without stealing goods?

Of course, Sato Akira showed these just to see what the Third Hokage looks like.

I have money, but I won't give it to you, you will be mad to death!

Go out.

Sato Akira was in a good mood, and Sarutobi's appearance made him feel very happy.

Naruto's education was done, and the next thing he needed was to improve his own strength.

In this war-torn world, things change rapidly and lives may be threatened at any time.

Konoha is no longer a safe place to live.

In order to protect his brother, he has a reason to improve his strength.

So next, he will do his best to unlock the next template.

The current progress of the first template: 15.6%.

There is still 4.4% left!

On the way home, you need to cross a small river. When crossing the bridge, Sato Akira saw a small figure on the bridge from a distance.

White clothes, brown hair, and the hair was tied into a small bundle at the end.

The figure had his back to him and stared into the river.

Sato Akira's heart trembled, and he recognized his identity.

The genius of the Hyūga family, Hyūga Neji.

He is also a tragic character.

According to the plot, it should be not long after Hizashi Hyūga died.

Neji was four years old and lost his father.

As if he had sensed someone behind him, the four-year-old Neji turned his head, and the mark of a caged bird on his forehead was very obvious.

His eyes were empty and the tears had just dried.

He looked at Sato Akira and asked:

"Do you have a father?"
