The man standing at the top of the ninja world

Tsunade turned to look at Nagato and said: "Nagato, now that Kushina's injury has completely healed, our first team can't continue to be idle like this. Jiraiya and his team have been there for several days. I have already started to accept commissioned tasks before. You go and inform Zhao Zhao and gather at the training ground tomorrow morning, and then go to the Sandaime to receive the task."

After saying this, she paused, and then said again: "In addition, since you are all chunin now, the difficulty of the tasks should also be improved. You can no longer accept boring tasks like C-level."

"How's it going? Is there any problem?"

"No." Nagato shook his head decisively. In more than half a month, he had learned most of the ten selected A-level ninjutsu, and was looking for some stronger opponents. Test your own cultivation results.

"Neither did I." Uzumaki Kushina said immediately. She had long felt that the enemies she faced in the C-level mission were too weak and there was no challenge at all.

......

At eight o'clock the next morning, the four members of the first class gathered at the training ground on time and headed to the Hokage Building together.

"Dong dong dong." Tsunade stopped in front of the Hokage's office door and knocked on the door. A second later, the voice of the Third Hokage came from behind the door.

"Please come in."

Tsunade pushed open the door and strode into the room, with Nagato and the other three filing in behind her.

The Third Hokage was immersed in his desk, handling official business. There were a large number of documents placed on his desk, which seemed to be much more than when Nagato came last time. After the four people walked in, he He wrote quickly on the document and waved to them, indicating that they should wait a moment.

A few seconds later, the Third Hokage finished processing the documents in his hand, raised his head and looked at the four people, and smiled, "Sorry, there are too many things going on recently."

"By the way, Tsunade, what do you want to see me for?"

"Sandaime." Tsunade took a few steps forward, walked to the Third Hokage, and said loudly: "Our first class has not done any missions for more than a month. Is there any mission that is more suitable for us?"

After saying that, she pointed at Nagato and the other three, "Also, the three of them are now chuunin, so you should stop perfunctory us with low-level tasks like before, and at least give us a Only B-level missions are enough.”

Among Konoha's mission levels, D-level missions are without any danger and will not encounter any enemies. C-level missions will encounter enemies, but they are just ordinary people such as bandits and bandits. There are only B-level missions and above. Ninjas will appear.

According to Konoha's practice, in order to cultivate the character and experience of new ninjas who have graduated from the ninja school, these ninjas, regardless of their strength, will only do D-level and C-level tasks for a long time. The Sannin were In this way, even though their leading ninja was the Third Hokage, a super expert, he had already completed hundreds of C-level missions, which almost made the three of them vomit.

In the past half year or so, the first team has been doing C-level missions. Tsunade has long been dissatisfied with this. In her opinion, even if she completes A-level missions with the staffing of her team, It's more than enough. Even if it's for training novice ninjas, you won't get any useful experience if you keep using ordinary people to practice.

"Is this a B-level mission..." The Third Hokage understood Tsunade's character. Seeing her posture, he knew that she would not give up easily this time. Moreover, the three of Nagato had already become chunin. In terms of strength, it is enough to stand alone, but it is indeed not suitable for C-level tasks anymore.

After thinking for a while, the Third Hokage pulled out a piece of paper from a pile of documents and handed it to Tsunade, "Tsunade, take a look at this."

Tsunade took the piece of paper and found that it was a wanted list for rebel ninja, with the face of a middle-aged man who looked to be about 40 years old printed on it.

"This person..." Tsunade glanced at it for a few times and frowned, "Sandaime, I seem to have some impression of this person. If I remember correctly, he should be one of the jounin in the village."

The Third Hokage nodded, "Tsunade, you are right. His name is Oshiba Yuki. He is indeed a Jonin in the village. He has made many contributions to the village."

"But, this is already in the past. A dozen days ago, he had defected from Konoha and became a rebel ninja."

"Becoming a rebel ninja... Sandaime, why did he defect to Konoha?" Tsunade asked seriously. As the leader of the ninja, she was responsible for her own members, and she had to carefully inquire about the details of each mission.

"Because...he killed his companions, and there were more than one."

"What?" Haruno Zhao looked at the Third Hokage in shock, "Can a ninja who can become Hokage's friend actually kill his companions?"

Compared with the illusory First and Second Hokage, among the recent generations of ninjas in Konoha, the living Third Hokage is undoubtedly the most respected existence in their hearts, and those who can become the Third Hokage's friends must also be worthy of respect. How could such a person kill his companions?

Not only that, let alone friends, his disciples will also kill their companions in the future, and it will be because of such heinous things as human experimentation. Nagato, standing next to Haruno Zhao, twitched the corner of his mouth and complained silently in his heart.

"The Sandaime." Tsunade asked: "What is the reason why Oshiba Yuki killed his companion? He can't kill people for no reason, right?"

"The reason is, to become stronger."

The expression of the Third Hokage became a little sad, and he sighed: "Actually, this Oshiba Yuki is not only a Jonin, but also my classmate and friend when he was in the ninja school."

"He is a very competitive person and yearns for the strong. When he was still in the ninja school, he vowed to become the strongest ninja in Konoha. To this end, he practiced very hard. However, he His talent is not outstanding, so although he practices very hard, he can only stop at being a jounin in the end."

"Since then, he has started to become depressed, and his whole person has become much more gloomy. However, every task entrusted to him will be completed very well, so I don't care too much."

"But since a year ago, when he was doing missions with his teammates, the team would often suffer heavy casualties, and he was often the only one who came back alive."

ps: I've been busy these days and haven't updated. I originally wanted to post a single chapter to talk about it, but I'm too embarrassed to mention it. After all, it's a fact that it hasn't been updated. I'm very sorry.
