Task Report!
Hokage Office.
"Asakura Hao has been sent to Suna for so long..."
"There is no movement at all... is he caught by Sunagakure?"
It's still the Third Hokage. Koharu, Homura and Danzo sitting in the meeting office.
It has been two months since Hao was sent to Suna to explore intelligence, but there was no news..
"That might be the case... After all, Suna is also one of the five great ninja villages."
"It's not uncommon with such a strict guard to be caught and interrogated."
Thinking of the strict vigilance of the five major countries, Koharu couldn't help but sigh.
Even she couldn't help but feel a little sorry to see that such a young genius from the village might fall.
"Don't make conclusions too early..."
"There has been no news so far, I have confidence in Hao."
Only The Third Hokage of the four people present smoked silently, and his old and wise eyes sparkled with a complex look.
It was not easy to accept such a talented disciple in his later years. If there is any accident because of this task, it will be a big blow even to him.
Just then, a gust of wind blew outside the window.
A figure appeared quietly in the office.
"After all, Sarutobi-Sensei still knows me better..."
A childish voice sounded in the dull Hokage office.
"Hao?"
The Third Hokage after seeing who appeared, couldn't help but be stunned. As soon as he talked about him, he actually appeared!
And this quiet way of appearing... It seems that this boy's strength has made great progress.
"Asakura Hao?"
The Third Hokage did not look angry about the frivolous behaviour of Hao's sudden appearance in the Hokage office, but the other old-fashioned Konoha high-level officials present frowned slightly.
Koharu said, "You came back just in time. We are discussing your confidential task this time."
"The task has been successfully completed."
"This time I successfully sneaked into Suna. Judging from the information I found..."
He didn't care about the strange eyes of the top of Konoha village in front of him, Hao reported his task calmly.
"The Daimyo of the Land of the Wind has begun to reduce its funds and supplies to Suna. It seems that Suna has planned an armistice and an alliance with us Konoha."
Since the continuous improvement of his strength, especially the awakening of Haki , he is getting closer and closer to the Kage level.
Hao's mentality has also changed. Without as many constraints as before, his words and deeds have become more casual from the bottom of his heart.
While reporting this mission, Hao's eyes also secretly looked at Danzo sitting next to Homura in front of him.
Danzo looked as usual, as if nothing had happened, as if he had not sent the ninjas who assassinated him just now.
"Has Suna finally planned an armistice to ally with us?"
"Haha, that's great! You have completed the task well this time!"
After listening to the good news brought back by Hao, the Third Hokage immediately laughed and praised Hao in front of him.
Before, Konoha had to face pressure from the other four major powers on the battlefield at the same time. If Suna, who launched the war this time allied with Konoha, there would undoubtedly be a lot less burden on them.
"Well...with Suna's Armistice is on our side..."
"Next, we just need to deal with the guys of Kumo and Iwa.
"One step closer to winning the war."
After listening to Hao's mission report, the other two senior executives of Konoha couldn't help but nod repeatedly.
"Hiruzen, it seems that your new disciple has been completed the task well this time."
"If you cultivate him well, he will definitely become a pillar of the village like the Sannin in the near future."
The praise of Hao by the other two senior officials of Konoha obviously increased the mood of the Third Hokage.
The Third Hokage put down his smoking pipe, and looked at Hao in front of him with satisfaction, and said softly, "From the Land of Wind to the Land of Fire, you have worked hard for doing this secret task."
"Not everyone can complete a S-level tasks independently. Go back and have a good rest first."
"Next, relax your work in the medical class as a holiday for you."
Is that a holiday? Damn old geezer that slave driver ... Hearing the words of the Third Hokage, Hao couldn't help complain secretly in his heart.
However, speaking of hard work, in addition to the initial Suna infiltration work, it was really thrilling to escape from the hands of the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, and Chiyo, as well as the whole Sunagakure.
Hao didn't do anything else for the rest of the time. After completely annihilating Suna's pursuit troops, Hao found a secluded place and was busy studying his loot from Sunagakure.
Even the news that Suna intends to form an alliance with Konoha is the inevitable result that Hao has known from the original plot.
"In that case... I'll leave first."
After saying that, Hao nodded slightly, saluted and directly withdrew from the Hokage office.
It's just that before leaving, he looked at Danzo sitting next to everyone with deep eyes.
"Oh, by the way, Danzo-sama…"
"On the way here, I met four interesting guys."
"They don't seem to want me to come back alive after completing the task... I don't know if you know them?"
When he was about to leave the Hokage's office and walked to the door, Hao suddenly' remembered' something and looked back at Danzo with great interest.
"Well, I don't know... I don't understand what you're talking about at all."
Seeing Hao actually mention this matter in front of the Hokage and two other senior executives in the office, Danzo's eyes narrowed slightly, but his mouth was tight.
It's really an old fox... pretend, you continue to pretend as if you don't know.
Looking at the expressionless Danzo in front of him, Hao kept cursing in his heart.
"Oh? It seems that Danzo-Sama doesn't know them..."
"That's a pity... because I have sent all four of them to the Netherworld."
However, when he saw Danzo directly deny it, Hao didn't care and deliberately put on a 'sorry look' on his face to disgusted him.
