Chapter 39 The Third Hokage
After Lingya walked away, Zhou Lai slowly looked into Liu Nai's eyes.

"I'm personally very interested in the underground world!" Zhou Lai paused and glanced at the other party's reaction.

But Liu Nai still looked calm, and her crimson eyes did not show any waves at all.

"If Hokage-sama rejects you, I can provide you with financial support! But only for initial funds."

At this time, Xi Yan who was next to Zhou Lai also turned to look at him curiously, not knowing what Zhou Lai was doing.

After staring carefully at Zhou for a while, Liu Nai made sure that he was not joking again, and then slowly opened his mouth

"I am very grateful that you can still help me at this time, but you have to know that the development of a power requires extremely large financial support, which is simply not something that one person can bear. Even the initial funds will be an astronomical number."

"I know! Say a number first!"

"Five hundred million!"

Liu Nai slowly stretched out a hand and waved it in front of Zhou Lai.

"No problem! I can give you one billion." Zhou Lai agreed instantly.

"what do you want?"

"Give me the leadership of a bounty house!"

"Bounty house?!" Liu Nai frowned, "One billion can't buy a bounty house!"

"No, I just want to announce the dominance of the list, and if the money is not enough, I can add more. In addition, I can guarantee your absolute safety in the future." Zhou Lai leaned forward slightly and looked at Liu Nai.

"Okay." Lucy nodded after thinking for a moment.

"May I ask what your bounty is for?"

Liu Nai paused for a moment, then looked at Zhou Lai and asked.

Zhou Lai shook his head lightly.

"Then can you take off the mask and show me, after all, we have become mutual partners."

Zhou Lai thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.He feels that this is the real purpose of the other party, and the previous question is just used to cover up
Under the gaze of the other party, Zhou Lai slowly took off the fox mask on his face, revealing a fair and delicate face.

"Huh," the other party was obviously taken aback when he saw Zhou Lai's face.Then he couldn't help but smacked his lips and said softly
"I didn't expect you to be so young and powerful!"

"You are about my age and have the ability to manage a big family."

After Zhou finished speaking, he turned around and stopped Xiyan who was about to take off her mask.

"Anbu has a confidentiality mechanism. I can reveal my identity, but my companion doesn't have to. I hope Miss Yunai doesn't mind." Zhou Lai looked at Liu Nai and said apologetically.

"En" Liu Nai nodded, "I will keep it a secret for you, don't worry."

Afterwards, Zhou Lai and Xi Yan finished disposing of the corpses on the ground. It was Anbu's rule to eliminate the traces of the battle.

Although these people are not the ones that Anbu wants to kill, exposure to the outside and not dealt with will also bring unnecessary risks to their identities.

Then Zhou Lai briefly dealt with the injury on the bodyguard Lingya. His injury was very serious. Zhou Lai could only use the healing light to minimize the deterioration of the wound. For internal deep treatment, he could only go to a professional medical ninja.

With Liu Nai joining, although Zhou Lai had the idea of ​​rushing back to the village as soon as possible, but because of Ling Ya's injury and Liu Nai's physical strength as an ordinary person,
It took them a whole week to reach the outside of Muye Village after the original journey of three or four days.

Without a pass order, outsiders cannot enter the village through normal channels.

"You wait here for a while now, I will go to Hokage-sama to ask for the pass order for you, but don't worry, there should be no problem entering Konoha."

Zhou Lai pointed to the dense forest where they could rest, and gave them another placebo.

"Well, thank you very much!"

Liu Nai bowed slightly to Zhou Lai and Xi Yan. Although she was dressed in a mess at the moment, her every move exuded an elegant, gentle aristocratic atmosphere all the time.

Zhou Lai and Xi Yan returned their salutes, and then left Gu Huo Niao to protect their safety, then rushed towards Konoha.

This is No.70 eight days after Zhou Lai left the village, finally he returned to this peaceful and quiet village, and finally saw his dear mother again,

As well as those cute and retarded good friends, the most important thing is the recliner at home that makes him miss it day and night.

Zhou Lai did not rush to the Hokage Building immediately, but followed Xi Yan to the Anbu Mission Center to hand over the mission. This is a must-do job for Anbu members when they return to the village.

Under normal circumstances, no matter what special things you have, this must be done as soon as possible, so it has long been the first thing Konoha Ninja returns after completing the task.

"The Eagles!"

After Zhou Lai completed the task handover, he found the team leader who was sitting in front of the table with his eyes closed and meditating.

"Oh! Haifeng! When did you come back?" Ying was obviously surprised to see Zhou Lai.

"The task has just been handed over, and it has been successfully completed."

"En! Beautiful, where is Xi Yan?" Ying glanced behind Zhou Lai, but there was no one else.

"She just came home, and I have some other things to explain to Hokage-sama, so I came to Team Hawk."

"Oh, let's go!" Ying looked at Zhou Lai curiously.Then he got up and led Zhou Lai towards Hokage's office.

"Three generations of adults, things are like this."

Zhou Lai and Takaban knelt in front of the third generation, and told the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen everything about Uesugi Ryuno.

The third generation froze in mid-air with a big pipe in one hand, and slowly tapped rhythmically on the table with the other hand.

The big eyes that were opened when they first entered the room were now half-closed.Leaning on the back of Hokage's chair, his face was lost in thought.

Ying stood up quietly, signaling to Zhou Lai not to squat on the ground. Zhou Lai knew what Ying meant, so he stood up slowly and leaned against Ying.

Although he didn't see Sandai Hokage many times, he knew that Sandai's rules were different from other high-ranking Konohas. Except for the half-kneeling ceremony required for meeting, it was not used at all at other times.

The third generation personally explained that if you forget to let you get up, you can get up alone.This small detail is in stark contrast to other Konoha high rises.

Perhaps there are indeed many problems in the three generations of governance, but his kindness and kindness to the subordinate villages cannot be denied.

After a long time, San Dai slowly opened his eyes wide, looked at Zhou Lai and said softly
"Bring them in to meet me! Remember to do it in secret!"

"Yes!"

After Zhou Lai answered, he disappeared in a flash.But the eagle stayed.

"Master Sandai, where is Danzo and the Advisory Group?"

"Let's keep it a secret from them first, and let them know after I've finalized it."

Sandai waved his hand, picked up the Anbu mission completion report that Taka handed over, and flipped through it.

And this task completion report is exactly the "S" level task that Zhou Lai just completed to assassinate the senior management of Mist Ninja.
