Konoha: The Legend of Chiba

Konoha Village, Western Development Zone, the general office of the ninja engineering team camp.

"I've worked hard for you all this time, Deputy Commander Xue Nai."

Seeing the girl walking in accompanied by Hirohiko, Hibiki Chise, the head of the ninja engineering team sitting in the center of the main office, slowly stood up, tidied up his clothes, bowed deeply, and expressed his gratitude .

Today is the day when the girl in front of me leaves this camp and is transferred back to the defense force. It is also from today that she will officially become the deputy commander of the defense force and have all the real power of the defense force.

In an absolute sense, the twelve-year-old girl in front of me will be two levels higher than her in terms of position in the future, an absolute officer level.

"No, this is what I should do, please don't be so grand, I should thank you for your care during this time, Chief Qian Lai."

Regarding this, Xue Nai had a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, looking at the blurred figure bowing in front of her, she also bowed at a forty-five degree to thank her.

During this period of time, Chise Hibiki, as the general manager, still gave her a lot of autonomy, and almost never asked about any decisions made by the defense forces here. He even had to report every time by himself before he knew about the camp. What changes have occurred in the Defense Forces.

I already respect and take care of myself very much, and this thank you is also necessary.

No matter how Chise Hibiki thought of himself and Hirohiko before, this gratitude is necessary.

At least, after Chiba's visit and his dismount, he treated himself and Hirohiko very cautiously and respectfully, and he himself is also capable. As long as the work starts, the efficiency of the ninja engineering team will not be high. There is no decline.

In any case, on the bright side, what should be done is still to be done.

And from today, she left the ninja engineering team and completely returned to the defense force, and there will be two new defense force leaders in the ninja engineering team camp to take over her work, for this The two people in charge can quickly integrate here, and Xue Nai has to give Chise Hibiki this face.

As for the reasons for her leaving, there are two reasons.

Firstly, Kenshin Watanabe, the commander of the defense force, had put forward the request for Xue Nai to return to the defense force two months ago, that is, the day after Chiba's message was sent back. , Watanabe Kenshin has submitted more than ten transfer applications to the Fourth Hokage. Today, even the Fourth Hokage cannot withstand such a strong transfer request from Watanabe Kenshin, and finally agreed a week ago. This week, Xue Nai also completed the handover work, so I will return to the defense force today.

Secondly, the camp has been completely on the right track, and the rules and regulations that should be established have been determined and confirmed by practice. There is no need for Xue Nai to stay here. If the deputy commander is allowed to stay In this camp where she was no longer needed, that would be a real shame.

This is also one of the reasons why the Fourth Hokage couldn't stand the promise.

In short, starting today, she has nothing to do with the ninja engineering team camp.

"No, Miss Xue Nai, you are too serious."

As for Xue Nai's bowed thanks, when Chise Hibiki raised her head to see it, she was taken aback for a moment, and then said with some emotion.

To be honest, due to his desire to marginalize Yukina and Hirohiko at the beginning, and the deterrence taken by Chiba, he has always been cautious about Yukina and Hirohiko, and the two are also somewhat alienated from him, and he also noticed Yes, they are also wary of themselves. And his relationship with them also has the same purpose, but there is a grudge in his heart, and it is always impossible to have a heart-to-heart relationship.

When he learned that Xue Nai was going to leave, he did not expect that Xue Nai would thank him so solemnly, which can be said to have given him face. You must know that Xue Nai is an officer two levels higher than him. It's thanks, basically it's verbal thanks, and bowing to thank you like this is already a very high or even impossible etiquette.

This is already so much face that he is already a little ashamed of himself.

"No, without you, I'm afraid, others may not be able to do so well if they come to take Qianye's place. Maybe we will have opportunities to cooperate like this in the future."

Regarding this, Xue Nai who straightened up smiled and said.

"this……"

But after hearing this sentence and looking at the smiling Xue Nai, she couldn't believe what she heard, and was speechless in shock.

If it was to save face just now, then this should be an absolute affirmation without any grievances.

He could hear how highly these words spoke of him.

First of all, the girl in front of her is calling him "Qianye", what status she has in the village, and how strong his ability is. Comparing herself with this one, she is absolutely extremely affirmed of her work.

Secondly, the "cooperation like this" in the back of this girl undoubtedly refers to cooperating with her on an equal footing like now, and having the opportunity to cooperate on an equal basis with her present being who is two levels higher than him is basically wishing him well and being optimistic about him, thinking that he In the future, she will be able to reach her current position, that is, she will be promoted to two ranks.

That is to say, she believes that her ability can reach the level of deputy minister of the defense force, no, it should be said that she is the deputy minister of the village central organization.

With such affirmation, he couldn't help but startled and lost his voice.

"Boom!"

However, his stunned voice did not last to the point of losing his composure after all. At this moment, just a few seconds after he uttered these words, the door of the chief office was suddenly opened, and even with the energy left, it slammed into the over the wall.

In an instant, his shock disappeared, and he suddenly looked at the door together with the boy and girl in front of him.

"Heh... heh... Qian... Chise-sama, Yukina-sama, and... and Hirohiko-sama..."

But at this time, the young ninja who rushed in through the door noticed the gazes of the three of them. While panting, he was eager to report something. In the end, he couldn't articulate a single word, leaving only A look of panic.

"What's wrong? Speak slowly."

Seeing the panicked appearance of the young ninja, the three of them frowned, and almost at the same time, these comforting words blurted out.

"Something... something happened, the fourth ring... the edge of the fourth ring, I found..."

Hearing these comforting words, the panic in the young ninja's heart calmed down a bit, and after taking a deep breath, he spoke with a gasp.

"What!"

And even though the young ninja breathed out his breath at the end, it was barely audible, but the three of them were born as ninjas with keen hearing, and they could still hear the following words clearly. And the moment they heard it clearly, the faces of the three of them suddenly turned aside, pale with shock.

"Quick! Take us there!"

In the next second, in shock, the three of them shouted in unison.
