Chapter 180: Gifts from leaders never truly solve needs

"Hokage-sama, here are the minutes of the meeting just now. Please take a look."

In the Hokage's office, Tatsuma first handed over the work of himself and Minato in the meeting to Sarutobi Hiruzen. Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and nodded and took it. While looking at it, he said: "Sit down."

Tatsuma was stunned. This seemed to be the first time Sarutobi Hiruzen asked him to sit down in the Hokage's office. The seat in the Hokage's office was not that easy to sit on.

Even when following Jiraiya and the others to report their duties, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not let them sit down. It was just that Jiraiya and Tsunade dared to sit down directly. Orochimaru usually stood.

Even Hatake Sakumo stood and reported his work.

Tatsuma nodded, did not refuse, opened the seat and sat down, not as wanton as Jiraiya and Tsunade, just sitting upright, Minato was about the same, with a bit of honor and nervousness on his face.

"You all performed well today."

After the two sat down, Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile. Tatsuma knew what he was referring to and showed a slightly shy smile. Minato was a little uneasy. After all, he really did The clerk went.

Since today's Jonin meeting was particularly short, the minutes were also short. Hiruzen Sarutobi flipped through it and put it down. He looked at the two of them and asked with a smile: "How did you go about learning the Fire Dragon Bullet I gave you earlier?"

Minato did not answer, but looked at Tatsuma. Tatsuma nodded slightly and said, "I have lived up to your cultivation. It is considered an introduction. Minato will learn more deeply."

This was not because Tatsuma was being modest, but what he spent the most during this period was studying Tobirama's notes. In addition to the usage of various psychic beasts, the ninjutsu he learned was mostly wind escape and water escape.

Regarding the Fire Dragon Bullet that Sarutobi Hiruzen was previously rewarded with, he really just learned it and did not continue to study it. Although based on his knowledge of Fire Release Ninjutsu, it is definitely impossible for it to be a true entry level.

But compared to the other ninjutsu he has mastered, Fire Dragon Bullet is indeed the least proficient among them.

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't pay attention and said: "It's good if you learn it. If you can't learn the Fire Dragon Bullet, then you won't be able to find the trick to learn the Fire Dragon Flame Bullet."

Hearing this, Tatsuma's eyes widened slightly. It seemed that the leader was going to reward him.

As expected, Hiruzen Sarutobi stood up, picked through the bookshelf on the side, then took out a scroll, handed it to Tatsuma, and said, "Take it back and study it hard. This is the ultimate application of fire escape by the Sarutobi clan. "

The Sarutobi clan is already good at fire escape, and the clan also has a systematic fire escape ninjutsu, such as Uchiha's "High Fire" series. In addition to the fire dragon bullets that Tatsuma and Minato have learned, there was also the high flame jutsu before. , followed by the fire dragon flame bullet in Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand.

Unlike the Uchiha clan, which has huge chakra, the characteristic of the Sarutobi clan's fire escape lies not in the coverage of the flames, but in the fine control of the technique.

Even the fire dragon's flame bullets do not have a large damage range, but the temperature of the flames and the control of the jutsu are better than the Uchiha clan's high fire series of ninjutsu.

Of course, this is a judgment under the same conditions for performing the same technique. If Uchiha Madara and Sarutobi Hiruzen were to compare, then Uchiha Madara's Fire Series Ninjutsu would not only be more powerful, but also equally controllable.

But for Tatsuma, the Fire Dragon Flame Bullet is more suitable for him, because his [Overturning the Sea] talent can make up for the slightly insufficient destructive power of the Fire Dragon Flame Bullet, and the more controllable technique can make his attacks more powerful. changeable.

Seeing the joy on their faces, Sarutobi Hiruzen was also extremely satisfied. The biggest fear when giving gifts is that the recipients don't appreciate them or don't take them seriously.

Tatsuma took the scroll of Fire Dragon Flame Bullet and said, "Thank you, Hokage-sama. Minato and I will copy it and send it back to you after we get back."

"Don't worry, this is not an unique copy."

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, and then said: "By the way, Tatsuma, the previous battle between you and your teacher and the Suna ninja consumed all your ninja tools, right?"

".Um."

"In this way, you make a list and give it to the logistics, and I will ask the logistics to complete it for you."

If the gift just now was within Tatsuma's expectations, then now it was an unexpected surprise, and it made Tatsuma even more happy.

Ninjutsu is knowledge and intangible assets. Even if you know its importance, ninjutsu is a tangible asset, and the satisfaction gained cannot be compared with intangible assets.

And the most important thing is that this way, Tatsuma doesn't need to borrow ninja tools from Minato.

Although Minato didn't care at all and even offered to give half of his ninja tools to Tatsuma, Tatsuma couldn't accept it with peace of mind.

And the village made up for these consumption, so Tatsuma, who no longer had money to buy ninja tools, almost laughed out loud with excitement. Of course, if Sarutobi Hiruzen could exchange the tasks he completed into money for him, Tatsuma would really Will laugh out loud.

It's a pity that Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't seem to mention the money.

Sarutobi Hiruzen just asked: "Do you two want to participate in this operation?"

Although he was a little disappointed in his heart, Chenma still nodded. Although the risks on the battlefield were high, for Chenma, the hidden rewards on the battlefield far outweighed the risks and threats.

Not to mention Minato, all he could think about in his little head was fighting for the village. Even if he knew there was danger, he would rush forward without hesitation.

Seeing that the battlefield did not dampen the courage of these two people, Sarutobi Hiruzen also nodded with satisfaction and said: "The refinement, implementation, and execution of the plan will take about one week to ten days.

In the fastest case, you may set off in four days. If there is too much coordination work, it will be set off in about a week. You can go back and make more preparations. "

After saying this, Hiruzen Sarutobi paused for a moment, and then said: "The war has lasted for nearly two years, and all countries have suffered enough from the war. It is time for it to end."

Minato's eyes were filled with excitement and recognition, and Tatsuma pursed his lips and nodded seriously.

Sarutobi Hiruzen just sighed that such a topic was not something Tatsuma and Minato could interrupt. Sarutobi Hiruzen calmed down and then said:

"Okay, you guys should go back and prepare. The list will be given to the logistics earlier."

"Yes! Hokage-sama!"*2

Tatsuma and Minato stood up, bowed and left. Tatsuma didn't even leave the Hokage Building, so he went to the logistics office. After explaining his purpose, he borrowed their pen and paper and wrote down his needs.

Then he left the Hokage Building and walked on the streets of Konoha. Looking at the streets that were a bit deserted compared to two years ago, Tatsuma handed the scroll in his hand to Minato and said:

"Minato, you should be able to learn it faster. Just take it back and study first."

Minato hesitated for a moment, and the feeling of worry about gain and loss rose up in his heart. He knew that it was Tatsuma's credit for getting this scroll, and he shouldn't be the one to learn it first.

But he also understood Tatsuma's character. If he wanted to refuse, he had to have a convincing reason.

Seeing the expression on Minato's face, Tatsuma smiled and said, "Don't hesitate, I'm not pretending to be polite to you."

"I know, then I'll take it back and copy it first, and I'll also make a copy for you by the way."

Minato still took the scroll, and Tatsuma did not refuse Minato's hard work. After all, there was no reward for the effort, and most people felt uneasy with it.

The two of them walked on the street for a while, and Minato suddenly turned around and said, "Tatsuma, I'll go back first."

But Tatsuma grabbed his hand. Under Minato's puzzled gaze, Tatsuma said, "Do you still have money on you?"

"No more, do you need it? I can sell some ninja tools."

"No, I mean, you don't have any money, where else can you eat if you don't go to Grandma Mito's house?"

Hearing this, Minato suddenly realized that he had just been thinking about something and got distracted again. He showed an embarrassed smile, scratched his head and said, "I forgot."

He just thought about going back to copy the scroll and then send it to Tatsuma and Sarutobi Hiruzen, but he forgot that he still had to eat.

Tatsuma also smiled and shook his head. Both he and Minato were very focused people. Sometimes when they were thinking about one thing, they would really forget about the trivial matters in life. Even eating and sleeping, which are necessary activities for the human body, would sometimes forget.

Because the Jonin meeting was much shorter than expected, when the two returned to Uzumaki Mito's home, Uzumaki Mito was preparing lunch.

While letting the two of them sit down to eat, Mito Uzumaki complained that the two of them didn't come over for breakfast. Tatsuma and Minato had no choice but to be called away by Hiruzen Sarutobi in the middle of the morning training and attend the Jonin meeting. Said briefly.

"Humph!"

After hearing that the two of them were going to the battlefield again, Kushina snorted in dissatisfaction. She expressed her desire to go to the battlefield more than once, but the village seemed not to hear it.

The two people who originally thought they had not been on the battlefield for several months had also become non-war personnel, and Kushina had a little balance in her heart, and a trace of emotions that she did not understand.

But now the two of them are going to the battlefield again.

Minato watched Kushina snort and then looked straight at him. He was a little at a loss and wanted to explain something, but Uzumaki Mito said calmly: "Let's eat first."

"Yes."

Minato had no choice but to nod and start eating lunch. While eating, Naoki began to ask about the time when the two of them went to the battlefield, saying that he also had to be prepared, etc. This made Kushina so angry that all the bones in her mouth were eaten. Just chewed it up.

Like Kushina, Minato also had a tasteless meal. While he wanted to answer Naoki's question, he was worried about Kushina's mood.

In contrast, Tatsuma's appetite was much better. After all, he didn't eat breakfast, and thinking consumed too much energy. He forgot to eat because Kushina and Minato kept asking about going to the battlefield with Naoki due to lack of appetite. All the dishes are dazzling.

After the meal, Naoki pulled Minato aside to talk, Kushina also followed, Tatsuma cleared the table, and Uzumaki Mito looked at everything calmly, with no sadness or joy on his face.

It wasn't until Tatsuma finished cleaning up that she asked: "This time, it should be the final battle, right?"

Tatsuma nodded and said: "This is the decisive battle. If the plan goes well and the Kingdom of Rain withdraws from the war, the rest will be the post-war clean-up work, as well as arrangements for various countries, and arrangements for Konoha with other countries. It’s time to deal with the spies.”

"It's time to end"

Uzumaki Mito murmured a few times, her eyelids drooped, and she didn't know what she was thinking about. After a while, she raised her eyes and said to Tatsuma: "Come with me."

"Yes."

For some reason, Chenma felt like he had heard this sentence many times today.
