Chapter 542: Hokage - Big Business

Although Konoha Village has set up defenses on the periphery to prevent the enemy from sneaking in, they naturally cannot block business from outside, so if you want to go to Konoha Village in person, you can, but you have to go through the main gate and go through a series of formal procedures.

The gate of Konoha Village is guarded by someone. Generally, if someone wants to sneak into Konoha Village, they will definitely not go through the main gate. So in fact, the guards of this gate are generally used to deal with guests who come to visit Konoha Village through formal channels or come to place commissions.

Therefore, the strength of the gate guards is not particularly strong, and they are usually Chunins.

However, since ninjas are more competitive, after all, they are doing life-threatening work, so they will do as many missions as they can while they are young. Therefore, although many ninjas have their own jobs in Konoha Village, they will go out on missions when they are free.

So don’t think that the gate guards have to stay at the gate all the time and can’t go anywhere, but in fact, before becoming guards, they have done a lot of commissions. After becoming guards, they will still do more tasks from time to time during shift changes and breaks.

Therefore, the little guard can be considered to be well-informed.

But today they were still eye-opening.

A carriage suddenly dropped from the sky, accompanied by the melodious sound of a flute, and stopped in front of the gate.

It was a large coach, with door hangings of wisteria silk and tulle, and a little beaded curtain on top, and gold curtains on the windows, with a trefoil-like design (the mora pattern) printed on them.

There were two people sitting in the front of the carriage and two people standing in the back, but the carriage was not pulled by horses. It was just moving out of thin air.

"Who is this person..." The guard was amazed. The carriage looked so luxurious, with carvings on it. A daimyo's carriage must be like this, right?

Rengoku Kyojuro and Caesar, who were standing in front of the carriage, opened the door curtain, and Kakyoin Noriaki and Oda Sakunosuke walked out first.

Although the clothes they wore were different, the styles looked very consistent, and they all wore the same earrings with the same patterns as on the carriage curtains.

"Excuse me, is this Konoha Village?" Kakyoin Noriaki walked up and started negotiating with the guard.

After some communication, the two guards said timidly that they needed to report, and before that, asked them to wait at the door.

Regardless of whether it is the Ripple Kingdom or not, or whether she is the queen or not, first of all, the reward of 100 million taels can be considered an S-level mission.

Then there is this Ripple Country that appeared out of nowhere.

Logically, their Konoha Village belongs to the Land of Fire, and they basically cannot accept commissions from other countries casually. However, that is only on the surface. Of course, they still do whatever they want to make money in private.

However, they will not accept missions that are disadvantageous to the Fire Nation.

This mission seemed pretty good. It was just being a bodyguard, and the duration was one month. At most, there was one more condition: you wanted to visit Konoha Village.

As for the future queen... isn't she the queen yet? Although this is equally important, after all, if the queen is gone in Konoha Village, then the revenge of the Ripple Country will also follow, right?

Although they felt that this small country that they had never heard of could not defeat Konoha Village.

Kakyoin Noriaki came back with a smile on his face. In the carriage, Gojo Aiko was practicing smiling in front of the mirror.

She is the future queen of the Ripple Country, not a princess, but a queen, the leader of a country, so she cannot be a vase. Therefore, any possible direct communication with Konoha Village later will have to be done by herself, because she is the one who calls the shots in this team.

So she had to show a polite smile at all times, but she couldn't help but pull the corners of her mouth wider and wider. She didn't know why, but she always felt that she couldn't hold it back. It might be that their acting was too formal this time. Although she often made up identities before, she had never acted as thoroughly as this time.

They didn't have to wait too long, as a group of people soon came out from the gate.

The leading man had a pigtail-like hairstyle and several scars on his face.

Kakyoin Noriaki was thinking about whether he should invite their beloved son down right now, when the Konoha man had already walked over.

"Please follow me to the lounge for a detailed discussion." The man briefly introduced his identity. He was Nara Shikaku, a Konoha Jonin.

Nara... Is that the "deer" in the Ino-Shika-Chow trio that Minato mentioned? I heard that the family is full of highly intelligent ninjas... Kakyoin Noriaki turned around, and Caesar immediately opened the door curtain. Uzumaki Kushina and Namikaze Minato, who were wrapped up tightly, came out first, followed by Chow Kanae.

Kocho Kanae made a gesture of extending her hand, and Gojo Aiko in the carriage stretched out her hand, placed it on her hand, and was led down by her.

"This is……"

"so beautiful……"

Several people behind Nara Shikaku exclaimed in a low voice. Gojo Aiko was already quite good-looking, and after dressing up, she looked like a fairy from heaven.

Others also came out one after another, and Chiba Erzhiyu moved the carriage to the side of the road to avoid blocking the road.

Nara Shikaku glanced at this group of people and began to trust the words of the Ripple Country a little more.

To be able to dress like this, one must be either rich or noble. No, they must at least be aristocrats, because ordinary businessmen, no matter how rich they are, cannot dress like them.

The lounge is actually the reception room, located just inside the main entrance.

Everyone sat down on the sofa surrounding Gojo Aiko. Nara Shikaku sat opposite Gojo Aiko, observing the expressions and movements of others and made a judgment in his mind.

It seems that I will have to discuss the details of the mission in person with the heir later.
