Civilian Naruto: Becoming invincible from the Eight Gates

The figure emerging from the water was none other than Suzumiya Musashi.

After a few seconds, he stretched his body and entered the water again!

With a "plop", he turned into a shadow and disappeared in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.

Uzumaki Naruto was splashed with water, but his eyes were still wide open.

"Siguoyi!~"

He turned to look at the silent Hatake Kakashi and said excitedly: "Teacher Kakashi, I think Sasuke is right!"

"If I could be like Brother Musashi, even if I can't tread water, I wouldn't be afraid of fighting in a water environment."

"He's faster than a fish!"

Hatake Kakashi: "(╬￣Van￣)!"

He took a few quick steps to Uzumaki Naruto, and in the latter's puzzled look, he gave him a slap on the face!

"Ah! It hurts, it hurts!!!~" Uzumaki Naruto covered his head and screamed in pain.

Hatake Kakashi said with a straight face: "What's hurting!"

"I just think about random things all day long."

Seeing Uzumaki Naruto being taught a lesson, Uchiha Sasuke, who was not far away, curled his lips again.

Hatake Kakashi suddenly turned to him and said, "And you!"

Uchiha Sasuke: (?｀?Д?′)!!

Hatake Kakashi said: "To reach Musashi's level, the cruel training you have to go through is beyond your imagination."

"Moreover!" He looked at the three little ones seriously, "You don't think that Musashi hasn't mastered the basic skill of treading water, do you?"

"I emphasize again! There are no shortcuts in the practice of ninjutsu!"

"We'll have extra practice today. If I'm not satisfied with the results, no one will eat."

Three people: "...Hi! (￣ー￣*|||"

Seeing that the three stopped complaining and continued to practice, Hatake Kakashi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, thinking of Suzumiya Musashi's behavior just now, he couldn't help but sigh.

[Its speed underwater is so terrifying, it must be a monster like Kai! ]

"That... Kakashi-san?" Just as he was sighing, a familiar voice came from not far away.

Hatake Kakashi turned around and said, "Ms. Nami."

"Is there something wrong? Could it be that Cardo's people are causing trouble again?"

"No." Tsunami explained hurriedly: "Dad called everyone here. He asked me to go find Musashi-san."

"Did you see him?"

"Is that so?" Hatake Kakashi said, "Wait for me."

Then he walked to the surface of the sea, sensed the place where the underwater fluctuations were the most violent, and transmitted the chakra out violently.

After a few breaths, the water surface suddenly began to bulge.

"Bang!~~"

“Crash!~~”

"Kakashi-senpai, you called me?"

"Puff!" Wiping the water off his face, Hatake Kakashi plucked a lively little sea fish from his hair expressionlessly and said, "It's not me, it's Miss Nami who's looking for you."

"Oh." Suzumiya Musashi walked ashore and came in front of Tsunami.

"Ms. Nami, has Mr. Dazna gathered everyone? Shall we set off?"

Tsuna opened her eyes wide and stared at the muscular body in front of her.

"Ms. Nami! Miss Nami?" Suzumiya Musashi called out twice before Tsuna came back to her senses.

Suzumiya Musashi said: "Shall we go back?"

"Oh... okay!" Tsunami turned her head away in panic and led the way.

"plz follow me."

His steps were a little hurried.

As she walked, Tsunami's mind was still filled with the scene just now.

Handsome young boy.

Strong muscles and perfect and charming lines without a trace of fat.

The water droplets in the sunlight emit a sparkling luster and look fresh and delicious.

"Gudu~"

The sound of swallowing saliva was unusually abrupt, and Tsunami's face turned red as she walked in a panic. Fortunately, her skin was wheat-colored, so the redness was not particularly obvious.

"Musashi-san, everyone is here, I won't disturb you for now." After bringing Suzumiya Musashi to a crowded yard, Tsunami fled.

He didn't stop until he turned a corner, covering his burning cheeks with his hands.

Looking back at the direction of the courtyard, he couldn't help but murmured, "It's... so beautiful."

"Pity."

"Such a good young man has to go against someone like Cardo, alas~"

-

The spacious courtyard was now densely packed with people.

Fishermen, workers, unemployed people, shop owners...

The yard was packed with people and the noise of conversation made people's ears buzz.

Suzumiya Musashi looked at the crowd in front of him and asked Dazna beside him: "Is everyone here?"

Dazna nodded, "Most of them are here."

"Worker representatives, family patriarchs, public representatives, and those who invested in building the bridge... The people present here can represent all those who participated in building the bridge, and can represent more than 8% of the total population of Wave Country."

Suzumiya Musashi said: "That's all. Have you told everyone about the agreement you made before?"

"I said that they basically had no objection."

Hearing this, Suzumiya Musashi took a deep breath, and his loud voice drowned out the noise of the crowd and reached everyone's ears.

"Quiet!"

"Everyone, look at me!!~"

The noisy voices suddenly stopped, and everyone looked towards Suzumiya Musashi.

Suzumiya Musashi said loudly: "Gather everyone here, you already know the reason."

"Mr. Dazna should have told you."

"Let me simply repeat it again!~"

"The bridge you want to build cannot be constructed smoothly now because of Cardo's sabotage and obstruction!~"

"Dazna issued a fake mission in Konoha in order to build a bridge!~"

"Originally, this was an unforgivable deception~"

"But!~"

"Considering the special situation of Wave Country!~"

"Under the wise leadership of our great leader, Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen!~"

"We, Konoha! We are willing to carry forward the spirit and provide protection missions for the people of Wave Country during the bridge construction! ~"

"As a reward for the mission, after the bridge is built, the taxes generated by the bridge will be collected by Wave Country at 7% and Konoha at 3%!~"

"I have finished what I want to say! Who is in favor? Who is against!~"

"..."

The loud sound made everyone's ears buzz.

After a moment, seeing that Suzumiya Musashi seemed to be waiting for everyone to express their opinions, the owner of a small shop bravely raised his hand.

"Master Ninja, I would like to ask if the tax rate can be changed?"

"We bear the entire cost of building the bridge, and we have already invested too much money. Isn't it a bit too much for Konoha to collect 30% tax?"

Suzumiya Musashi's face was warm: "Well, do you have any other opinions?"

Seeing his good attitude, the owner of a grain store also raised his hand.

"Master Ninja, can the tax rate on food be reduced? After all, the people of Wave Country have suffered enough. I really want everyone to eat affordable food."

"Well, what else?"

"Master Ninja, can the tax on medicines be waived? The medical conditions in Wave Country are too poor. My child is 28 years old, but I still don't have the money to circumcise his foreskin!"

"Master Ninja, can the tax on furs be reduced? Wave Country is too far away, and the cost of transporting furs here is too high."

"Master Ninja, jewelry..."

"Master Ninja..."
