Konoha: Doing good deeds can make you stronger

Chapter 257 The task of the challenge is the task
The camera returns to Marutani Koko. After the warm party, the tired children followed the adults and left. Marutani Koko also took the hands of the two children, bid farewell to Hongdou, and returned to the The long-lost home.

Although the uninhabited situation has lasted for a year, Nara Shikahisa is extremely considerate and hires people to clean here every week, which makes Marutani very grateful.

The three of them pushed open the door, and seeing the familiar furnishings at home felt a sense of warmth in their chests, as if they had never left.

"Go home! Go home!"

Naruto, who had returned home, was very excited. He was the first to rush into the house and rolled wildly on the ground. Xianglin was not much better than Naruto, and rushed into his lovely bedroom. Although the room that Bian tidied up for her was equally exquisite, it was still far from here.

"Okay, okay! It's getting late, and you have to go to school tomorrow! You guys wash up and go to rest!"

Now Marutani Koko has to experience the life of educating children in advance. He first put Xianglin to sleep, and then lay on the bed with Naruto who was unwilling to rest.

"Teacher," although Naruto felt deeply sleepy at this time, Naruto still tried to open his eyes that were about to close at any time, and there was a trace of fear in his small eyes, "Teacher, wait for me You won't be there after you wake up."

"Little fool," Marutani Kou smiled and stretched out his hand to tap Naruto's little head lightly, "Of course not."

"whee."

After receiving Marutani Kou's accurate and firm reply, Naruto closed his eyes with peace of mind.

For Naruto and Xianglin, they received too much information today, and the sudden change of mood also made the two children very tired, and they fell asleep quietly after a while.

Finally settled the children's affairs, Marutani Kou stretched his body and returned to his room, looking at the place in front of him that he hadn't lived in for more than a year, his eyes showed nostalgia.

"Sure enough, Konoha is suitable for me."

There was nothing to say all night, time passed quickly, and it was dawn in a blink of an eye. Marutani Koko, who did not need to sleep, prepared breakfast for the two children and sent them to school. Since he himself has returned to the village, he is also It's time to end the "business" that hasn't been done before.

"Challenge me again?"

Seeing Marutani Kohisa who came to visit and applied for the challenge early in the morning, Nara Shikahisa showed a rather helpless expression on his face.

"Why are you so keen on challenging others?"

"Uh..." Of course, Marutani Koko couldn't directly say that it was because of the magical system in his body, so he could only find a reason to perfunctory the past, "Isn't this teacher, you are amazing, I just came back from outside, so I want to ask you for advice." One time, hehe."

Looking at Marutani Kou's "honest and honest" face, all the complicated emotions in Nara Shikohisa finally turned into a sigh.

"You mouth, it's a pity not to be a diplomat for the village in the future."

The student I picked up was far superior to ordinary people in terms of talent and understanding. The only strange problem was that he was too keen on challenging others, and some of the challenge process was meaningless at all, and he didn't know that in such a process, Did he gain more, or wasted more time.

"Forget it, forget it, you must have your own reasons for doing this, anyway, I can't understand your growth rate," Nara Shikahisa shook his head, no matter what, in his eyes, he is still trustworthy as a student , "Let me decide the content of the challenge, do you have any opinions?"

"No, no, of course not!"

Marutani Kou nodded without hesitation.

After this period of training outside the village, Marutani Koko believes that for him now, as long as Nara Shika does not propose a pure theoretical knowledge duel test for a long time, he will have the power to fight.

"Then you can help me complete a task."

"Mission? Another mission?"

Marutani Kou was a little speechless, why is it a mission again?He's about to get PTSD.

"What? You don't want to do it?"

"No, no, of course! Of course I am!" Nara Shikahisa raised his eyebrows, and Marutani Kou hurriedly pulled him up, "How could you not be willing?"

Nara Shikahisa actually proposed to replace the challenge with a task, which surprised Marutani Kou, but according to his own understanding of the system, there is a high probability that this form of challenge will be directly recognized by the system.

To a certain extent, this system that is too tolerant is truly benevolent to itself.

Nara Shikahisa stretched out his fingers, tapped the table lightly, and made a rhythmic sound.

"It just so happens that the village entrusted me with this task, so now, it's up to you to take full responsibility. It just so happens that you are also a direct participant in this matter."

"what?"

"Go, investigate clearly, the identity of the mysterious masked man and the plan he is planning against Konoha!"

Marutani Hang was stunned, and then grinned the next second.

The boy had thought about what an outrageous task Nara Shikohisa might propose before, but he didn't expect that this was what was waiting for him in the end.

In fact, about the mysterious masked man, Marutani Koko directly brought the news to Sarutobi Hiruzen after he came to the village, and he didn't tell anyone else, only the closest relationship, and the mature personality Itachi learned part of the information from him.

There are two main reasons for this.

First of all, the identity of the mysterious masked man is too mysterious, coupled with his terrifying strength, it is not a good thing if there are too many people in the village who know about it. It is possible to become the next target of the mysterious masked man at any time.

In addition, it is also to protect Marutani Hang, so that he has the opportunity to maximize his "tool man" status.

In the vision of the mysterious masked man, Marutani Hang is still a target that can be fought for at this time, so he did not choose to attack him. Then as long as the information related to him is spread, Marutani Hang will definitely become the first to be suspected Object, Konoha can't guarantee whether the mysterious masked man will become angry and attack Marutani Kou.

In addition, letting Marutani Hang continue to maintain an ambiguous identity is only beneficial and not harmful from the perspective of obtaining more information.

But what he didn't expect was that Hiruzaru Sarutobi threw this matter to Shikahisa Nara in the end. How should I put it, maybe this is fate.

However, even if Shika Nara doesn't propose this task for a long time, can Marutani Hang really let this matter go?

How is that possible.

You know, the goal of the mysterious masked man is already very obvious, which is Naruto and the nine tails in his body. As a responsible and good "parent", how could Marutani Koko sit idly by?
Rather than saying that this is a task given to him by Shikahisa Nara, it is better to say that this is a task given to him by himself.

Want to fight Naruto?have you asked me !
Although it looks cool and handsome now, the reality is cruel, because Marutani Koko seems to be unable to beat the mysterious masked man at all.

This problem is not so simple to solve, so at this time Marutani Hang is still a little entangled in how to deal with the mysterious masked man.

"First of all, you don't have to worry about safety. Apart from the two of us and Hokage-sama, there are only a few high-level officials in the village who know this news, and the other high-level officials don't know that this matter is related to you."

Shikahisa Nara saw the worry on Marutani Koko's face, as if he had already prepared it, and immediately sent out a pair of information.

"Leaving aside the matter of Naruto, now that you have entered the enemy's field of vision, even if you want to hide, it is meaningless. Instead of being passive all the time, it is better to take the initiative."

Nara Shikahisa suddenly stretched out his fist and held it in front of Marutani Kou.

"Remember, no matter what the situation is, taking the initiative is the most important thing!"
