Namikaze Minato really felt for a moment that he was hallucinating.

——Maybe what Miss Ugetsu is talking about is, is there anyone who will go on the inspection together?

"Miss Ugetsu just said escort... right?"

"Yes."

Ugetsu nodded, confirming Namikaze Minato's question.

Namikaze Minato: "..."

This is...

The blond young man didn't know what expression he should use to face it.

Escort Uchiha, escort Sannin...

Then you and the 'escort' are very spiritual.

Namikaze Minato didn't know for a moment that he should explain that these people did not need to be escorted.

Let’s complain first about ‘Why would anyone want to hire a ninja to escort these people’.

This sounds almost like saying to other small animals, 'It's too dangerous for tigers/lions to go out alone, please protect them' - anyone with a normal mind will probably only be filled with questions after hearing this request. .

After all, this is really a commission whose meaning I don’t understand at all.

"I know you may think that this team does not need to be escorted, but being able to fight does not mean that they must fight - if they still need to do everything along the way, then what is the difference between this vacation and work?"

It can’t be said that you are a driver, so if you sign up for a group trip, you must drive, right?

Yuyue said righteously.

"Since it is called a 'vacation trip', of course everything must be arranged according to the 'vacation' standard - besides, no one has said that powerful ninjas must not accept the escort of other ninjas, right?"

"This is stereotype and professional discrimination."

——Of course not, after all, Ying still has a bodyguard.

You can’t say that the ‘Shadow’ needs protection because it’s too weak, right?

But when it comes to other ninjas, most people wouldn't think so.

"Ninjas also have the right to travel for leisure and not work!"

It's all about this.

How could Minato Namikaze have the right to refuse?

There is a legitimate reason for entrusting the task, and the reward for the task is sufficient - the next headache is only how to choose and who to choose.

Of course this is also the biggest problem.

Let’s not talk about whether those people need escort (in terms of force value).

Just talking about the choice of escort - he definitely couldn't send just some ordinary genin and chuunin.

But if we talk about the Jonin - eight out of ten people escorting him are stronger than himself, there is really something going on, but he is the last one to notice it.

They may even kill them all conveniently before completing the seal on their side.

How embarrassing is that?

Let’s not talk about whether we neglected our duty or not.

Let’s just say that this blow to an individual is not something that ordinary people can bear.

Think about it, every day along the way, there are people who attack you in the aspects that you are most proud of.

I have to remind you every day that the insight/combat ability you are most proud of is actually nothing at all...

Not everyone can bear this.

Therefore, this candidate must be selected carefully.

...No matter what, we can't let people go out and be beaten and crippled when they come back, right?

Alas, it’s difficult.

It's too difficult.

As for Uyuki Store, they were immersed in the joy of traveling.

Although everyone is not dissatisfied with their current working life.

But who wouldn’t look forward to traveling far away and going to a completely different country?

Just looking at how excited those people who come to Konoha are, you should know how happy it is to travel.

In the past, I only watched other people's happiness, but I never expected that this happiness would come to me now.

And I heard from Miss Ugetsu that she had made arrangements for all the relevant matters along the way, and she only had to bring the personal luggage she needed.

--World

How can we have such a happy trip!

Among them, the one who is most receptive and positive is probably Jiraiya.

Although it was a bit different from the wine pond and meat forest he imagined... no, a hot spring trip full of scenic scenes.

But it doesn't matter, it's not a big problem.

After all, in the land of water, there are beaches!

Beach! Sun bath! Bikini!

That's not the same as Jiuchirou... a completely new source of material!

Beautiful, beautiful.

While he was thinking about it, he kept stuffing everything he thought he would need into his luggage.

For example, the must-haves for the seaside, the must-haves for the seaside, and the must-haves for the seaside...

"Why did you bring a women's swimsuit?"

A suspicious and threatening female voice sounded.

Jiraiya said without thinking:

"Of course I wear it."

Just kidding, swimsuits are not meant to be worn by others, are they meant to be displayed for viewing?

"you wear?"

"How is it possible, I'm just...Tsunade?"

Halfway through his words, Jiraiya finally noticed the figure with the word 'danger' written all over his body.

"Oh...why are you here?"

He tried to change the subject.

"How is your lab arrangement going? There are so many things in the lab, I'm afraid it's hard to arrange."

"Then you don't need to worry."

Tsunade had no intention of changing the subject.

"So, if you bring so many women's swimsuits, who are you going to wear them for?"

Of course it's Tsunade, you, Miss Yukino, the pharmacist Miss Nonou, and the other female employees of the Ugetsu store.

——But I couldn't say this in front of Tsunade.

After all, he still wants to live to see the sun tomorrow.

"Just...in case anyone doesn't bring it, right? Hahaha, ahhahahaha..."

Jiraiya quickly put away everything he could see with lightning speed. Then he acted stupid towards Tsunade.

Tsunade snorted coldly and gave the other party a look that said, "Do you think I look like a fool?"

Then, she walked towards Jiraiya step by step.

Every step he took seemed to be stepping on Jiraiya's heart.

Jiraiya: "Wait, wait a minute, Tsunade, tell me something properly, Tsunade - OoOoOoOo!"

A wailing sound rang out from a corner of Konoha late at night.

But because this was not the first time, people around him were used to it.

It didn't cause any commotion.

After throwing a big problem to the Hokage, Ugetsu took care of it himself.

Although this is not my first time traveling.

But ‘vacation mode’ is a first.

And it was the Water Country that she had been looking forward to for a long time - this was the place where several big vvvvip customers were born.

Not to mention the gold everywhere, there should be constant business opportunities.

"Miss Ugetsu is looking forward to it."

Seeing Ugetsu taking away this one and touching that one at a time, he was obviously in a good mood, Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but said with a smile.

"Yes, it is the kingdom of water after all."

It’s a country of water where famous people are extremely wealthy.

And it is specially named after water, so it should be a charming world full of water.

Ugetsu is really curious about this place.

After all, this was the only place where the Ninja Village that rejected him was located.

Although she still doesn't understand why Kirigakure Village gave her the confidence to reject her.

——I hope we can find out the truth this time.

Although for now, questions from the past are no longer that important.

But Ugetsu still wants to know the answer to this past riddle.

"That water country?"

"It's a fat... water country with many big customers."

Ugetsu waggled his fingers and calculated.

“The seaside, the coastline, you can fish and swim in the sea

Round partying, diving... no matter how you think about it, there are many fun activities. "

"I went in a hurry last time and didn't experience anything. It was rare for someone to receive me. I must have enough fun this time."

Uchiha Shisui: ...

Then he felt that 'the kingdom of water' might be different from what Miss Ugetsu imagined.

At least according to Uchiha Shisui's impression.

There may not necessarily be so many ‘entertainment projects’ in the Land of Water.

But there are definitely projects related to blood.

Especially the Kingdom of Water has always been closed and strict.

A few years ago, due to the defeat, the problem was blamed on the Blood Succession Limit owners.

At one time, there was a craze throughout the Kingdom of Water to clean up the owners of the blood inheritance boundary.

If it weren't for the "Young Heroes" that Miss Ugetsu asked Jiraiya-sama to publish, there were also a lot of Blood Succession Limits written in it, and coupled with the activity to find the owners of the Blood Succession Limits, the owners of the Blood Succession Limits in the Land of Water (Except for those in Kirigakure Village), they are probably all dead.

——Just like the experience between Yukino-san and Shiro.

But there is no need to tell Miss Ugetsu this kind of bloody and desperate story.

The boy thought.

Presumably the people in the Kingdom of Water would not put this side in front of Miss Ugetsu.

Since you won't experience it, there is no need to talk about it to spoil the fun.

The young man thought of this and smiled again.

"There are so many ways to play? It's really exciting."

"Yeah, I'm really looking forward to it."

Because it’s ‘tourism’.

Ugetsu also specially rented several carriages for transportation, including one that was specially used as a luggage cart.

It's not an exaggeration to say this is a "tourism" of this size, it's a medium-sized business group.

Hatake Kakashi looked at it from a distance, stunned.

Although he knew that Miss Ugetsu would be quiet during this trip, this was too...

Rather than traveling, it’s more like ‘moving’ or ‘caravan shipping’.

"Oh! Kakashi!"

With an expectant and excited look on his face, Metkai seemed to be equipped with a radar, and he immediately spotted Hatake Kakashi far behind the crowd.

"Are you coming to travel too? No, you are no longer an employee of Yuyue Store..." The Jarhead boy scratched his head in confusion, then an idea flashed in his mind, and he slammed his hand, "I understand! You are the ninja who is here to escort us! Right!"

Hatake Kakashi: "..." Although this is indeed the case.

But there’s no need to say it so loudly.

Kakashi Hatake had mixed feelings.

Although it’s not like I’m envious or angry when I see my ‘old club hanging out’.

After all, it was his own choice and he would not regret it.

But my former companions all went there to play, but I had to ride for them... I don't know how to describe my feelings.

However, Metkai could not detect the complex and indescribable changes in the other party's mood, and just patted Kakashi on the shoulder boldly.

"It's great, we can act together again!"

"This opportunity is rare, and you can have a few more!"

——Then forget it.

Whether it's personal or professional, it's weird, right?

How can an ‘employer’ compete with an ‘employee’?

So who will do the work along the way?

It can't be said that he was really in danger, but one of the employers rushed out, and then said to the employees behind him, "Come on, let's compete to see who can defeat more enemies!" ’

It doesn't sound right no matter what.

Hatake Kakashi said nothing.

Metkai took it for granted that he acquiesced.

Not only did he acquiesce, but he also greeted Daisuke:

"Daisuke! Kakashi wants to compete with me! You will be the referee then!"

After so many years of influence and influence, Daisuke no longer regards himself as an outsider.

"Okay, no problem!"

Not only did he agree, he also had a look of surprise and nostalgia on his face:

"It's been a long time since I saw the two of you competing and fighting together."

So you still miss it?

how to say.

Talking about 'volume'.

A few of the top guys at Uyue Store dare to claim second place, but no one dares to claim first place.

In addition to Hatake Kakashi, there were also other familiar faces among the escorts.

For example, Shiranui Genma, Hiratsuki, and... Sarutobi Asuma.

In addition to being avid fans of "Young Heroes", the first two are also the bodyguards of the newly minted Fourth Hokage.

Although it stands to reason that the Hokage's guards should not leave Konoha and leave the Hokage alone.

But this time is an exception.

In order to show that he paid enough attention to this 'commission', the Fourth Hokage Namifeng Shuimen sent the two of them out.

Although he may not be as strong as those 'employers' who need escorts, his status as a 'Hokage escort' is enough.

In addition, there is a very special person.

The man wearing small black sunglasses and a hooded cloak, hiding most of his body, is named Aburame Ryoma.

In addition to being a member of the famous 'Aburame Clan', he also has another identity, that is, he was once a member of the 'root' of Danzo's rule.

As an elite at the root, there is no doubt about his strength.

Just because of Danzo's actions, the status of the root ninjas became increasingly embarrassing.

The reason why he was included in the escort team this time.

In addition to being taken seriously, it is also a new 'signal' to the root ninjas, so that they can feel at ease.

After all, there is no direct leader (or because a major mistake was made), and people are inevitably panicked at the root.

Namikaze Minato hopes that through this move, the root ninjas will understand that they have not been abandoned, nor have they been excluded from Konoha's work.

Aburame Ryoma also understood that her work was of great significance.

So he put 120% of his energy into preparation.

Trying to make this work without any problems... and at the same time proving the strength of the root ninja.

I hope to get some more chips for my friends at the root.

Ryoma Aburame is not a talkative person.

His long career as a Gennin has also made him accustomed to a lifestyle of hiding in the shadows and not being discovered.

So it's a bit unkind to say this.

...But actually, deep down in his heart, he was hoping something would happen on the road so that he could prove himself.

Of course, this dark thought is also based on absolute strength.

Aburame Ryoma looked at the escort and the ninjas participating in the escort.

Not to mention dealing with the battle.

It's enough to attack some small and medium-sized ninja villages.

Aburame Ryoma even admired the Kirigakure Village.

He actually has the courage to entertain ninjas of this size and quantity in one go. If nothing else, this magnanimity is worthy of his status as one of the five great ninja villages.

It's really admirable.

——Of course, what he didn’t know was that the people in Kirigakure Village were already on their feet because of the information provided by Ugetsu.

"I knew they were coming to the Country of Water and to the Kirigakure Village for inspection, but I didn't know that I thought they were here to attack the Kirigakure Village!"

The elders of Kirigakure Village were all numb.

Look who are these people.

There are only two "Sannin" here - the last one may come one day.

Not to mention one, two, three, four, five... this series of Uchiha.

Even if they are all young Uchihas.

But that's an Uchiha too.

If you really look down on them because they are young and don't have (maybe) the Sharingan, then the people who suffer the consequences must be the ones who looked down on them, okay?

"Mizukage-sama! How can you agree to such an outrageous request!"

An elder said with a broken expression

.

The Fourth Mizukage: ...I didn’t know there would be such a battle!

In the past, Miss Yuyue would only travel with three or five people!

It's amazing that he is just one Uchiha (Uchiha Shisui), plus two of the three ninjas.

How did he know that Miss Ugetsu could do it all at once and go on an employee trip?

What's even more terrible is that this invitation was sent out by himself together with the great nobles.

The noble Lord's face was used in this matter, and now he doesn't even have any room to maneuver, let alone refuse.

After all, this is the person they want to invite.

I didn’t say it couldn’t be done at first.

But the elder didn't notice the ugly expression on Mizukage's face, he was still heartbroken:

"Mizukage-sama, you can't agree! If they really come, our Kirigakure Village will be in danger."

Do I look like a fool?

The fourth Mizukage's baby face turned blue.

But after all, he was the elder of his own village. He couldn't stand up and point at his nose and curse, so he could only take a few deep breaths and then said quietly:

"Then why don't you explain it to the noble Lord yourself?"

The elder immediately became shocked as if his tail had been stepped on and stopped talking.

"This...this..."

The nobles of the Water Country are not easy to talk to.

Especially in the Ninja World War in the past few years, Kirigakure Village failed to become the winner, which has made the nobles of the Water Country dissatisfied several times.

If it weren't for the geographical location and isolation of the Kingdom of Water, it would be extremely far away from other ninja villages, making it really difficult to entrust tasks.

Maybe they will have the idea of ​​abolishing Kirigakure Village.

Now if I tell him, 'Although we asked you to jointly invite us, there are problems with the number and composition of the guests, we think we need to discuss it again', I'm afraid it won't be Kirigakure Village's budget next year... no, in the next few years. It's going to be dangerous.

How dare he.

"Isn't this enough?"

The Fourth Mizukage spread his hands.

"Since we can't refuse, why not make the reception more beautiful."

The Mizukage, who had a baby face and the body shape of an underage boy, stood up as he spoke.

"At least it will give it a good reputation."

To be honest, he wasn't worried about what the elders said.

But with the current situation in Kirigakure Village... he felt that it was not their turn to worry about this or that.

Compared with other ninja villages, missing the earliest opportunity to cooperate with Ugetsu Store made them one step behind.

The geographical isolation of the Water Kingdom makes the transportation of various commodities slower than other places.

One step at a time, one step at a time.

Whether it's finances, strength... or even reputation.

Kirigakure Village is now far behind several other ninja villages.

In the past, Sunagakure Village was at the bottom.

But what about the current Sunagakure Village?

Don’t talk about strength, just talk about economy.

...Isn’t it an exaggeration to say ‘get rich suddenly’?

Is the overall combat effectiveness of ninjas lagging behind? They can hire ninjas or capable people from other ninja villages to help them work, okay?

This is not the time when the whole world is in a melee.

There are so many people that Ninjamura is willing to earn this money and favors, okay?

Although the holding of the Chuunin Exam could not be said to be the "last life-saving straw" for Kirigakure Village, it could definitely be said to be their only means to change their decadent situation in a short period of time.

So don’t say that Ugetsu brought a Ugetsu store.

Even if she moved half of Konoha and half of Sunagakure.

They could only smile and nod in agreement.

Comparing this possibility, it seems that it is not unacceptable for Miss Ugetsu to just bring the store employees to 'inspect'.

No, it would be better to say that Ms. Ugetsu came with the employees of Ugetsu Store this time.

It also expresses trust and "I will be responsible".

Otherwise, she could have brought two or three people with her.

, turn around and leave.

With so many employees, the trip would take at least a week.

Besides, even if it was just for fun - she couldn't possibly let her employees stay in a boring, terrible place for a week, right?

Such a long time, even if the entertainment items are deducted, is enough for her to inspect and give opinions.

——Even if it’s not enough, they can prepare more projects so that people can leave later.

Thinking of this, the Fourth Mizukage felt that this was a good thing.

Finally, he put his hands on the table and looked around with a serious expression:

"... Let's not talk about this matter anymore. Whether the village can keep up with the changes of the times and succeed depends on this Chunin Examination. In order to ensure that the Chunin Examination hosted by our Kirigakure Village can be completed beautifully, we will continue to We will mobilize the entire Ninja Village's strength to ensure that this reception is flawless!"

Seeing that the Fourth Mizukage had made up his mind, the elders would naturally not oppose him at such a critical moment. They bowed their heads one after another:

"...obey!"

On the other side, the Uzuki Shop group also arrived at the first place after the trip - Tanshu Street.

Everyone is familiar with this place.

Whether it's for work (ninja's) or team building before Ugetsu Shop, people have been here before.

Naturally, food and lodging have been arranged in advance.

Ugetsu specially booked the entire hotel this time.

In the evening, everyone’s dinner was prepared directly by a famous restaurant and delivered to the hotel.

For the employees at Ugetsu Store, it’s really all about self-service - you bring your bags into the hotel and someone takes them to your room.

Clean up, wash up and come out, then you can eat.

After dinner it is free time.

If you want to rest, you can go to bed directly. If you are full of energy, you can go out and play.

Of course, the premise is that the departure time for the next day cannot be delayed.

Because the destination is a distant water country, the departure time the next day is quite early. Although the carriage can actually catch up on sleep, it still requires an early wake-up, so people still need to arrange their activities tonight reasonably. of.

At least make sure you can get up.

The employees at Ugetsu Store have more or less experience in such group activities, so it’s okay.

The ninjas who had never experienced this battle were very shocked.

I was stunned just when I saw the continuous flow of delicious food - especially when this restaurant is really famous and has always been famous for its expensive prices and no takeout service.

Anyway, Shiranui Genma was still in a state of shock until the delicious food was delivered to the table.

There are certainly many ninjas of his level.

But this kind of treatment has never happened before.

"...are you always like this?"

He couldn't help but ask the pharmacist Kabuto next to him.

Compared with the later Uchiha and external employees like Shiro, he still had some friendship with the 'old employee' Kabuto Yakushi and could talk to him for a few words.

After all, there was a cooperative relationship in the past.

"Oh, that's not the case."

Kabuto the pharmacist shook his head when he heard this.

——That’s what I’m saying.

Although it has nothing to do with myself.

But Shiranui Genma breathed a sigh of relief when he found that his 'common sense' was correct.

He just said it.

How could someone be so exaggerated every time they go out?

At this moment, Pharmacist Kabuto pushed up his glasses and said calmly:

"We used to call the chef over to order and cook on the spot."

Shiranui Genma: "..."
